big master, big liar

The banquet at Bai Xiang's mansion lasted until late at night, and there was a curfew in Shengjing City, so Bai Heng kept him with a smile: "Sir and Boss Fang might as well rest at my mansion tonight."

Although Song Xuan plotted against Bai Heng and was on the same level as him on the surface, he didn't want to take it seriously as his henchman, so he didn't want to get involved too much, so he just smiled and said, "Don't dare to disturb your lord."

Fang Qiutang also knew that Song Xuan was scheming, so he helped out and said, "Mr. Song is currently living in the Zhaixing Pavilion, so it is not reasonable for him not to return all night."

Bai Heng squinted his eyes, the smile on his face remained the same, but his words were a bit tough: "There is no trouble between the old man and the gentleman, could it be that the gentleman thinks the house is shabby and doesn't want to stay for a long time? "

If this Baifu is called simple and humble, then there are no luxury houses in this world.

This Bai Heng is nothing more than doing it for others to see, he wants to put Song Xuan under his command to make sure that in the future, even if Song Xuan is not willing to be in the same class as Bai Heng, others will regard him as Bai Heng's party.

This was expected by Song Xuan, he plotted against Bai Heng, but he didn't dare to treat Bai Heng as a fool.If you want to not touch a single leaf and only reap the benefits, I am afraid that there is no such cheap thing.

Bai Heng had a faint smile on his face: "The two of you will take a rest for the time being. Tomorrow will happen to be the Peach Blossom Festival. It's just a good time to join in the fun. It's also convenient to go wherever you want."

All three of Bai Heng's calculations were well understood, but now Song Xuan had to agree, and was just about to smile and nod: "That's it..."

At this time, I suddenly heard a servant approaching, reporting in a low voice: "My lord, the Third Highness is outside."

Bai Heng didn't think of this at all, but was stunned: "Who?"

The servant repeated: "Third Highness."

"Then why don't you come in?" Bai Heng twirled his beard, looking quite nervous, not knowing why Ji Yunxi came. "Wait, I'll go myself—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a person walking out of the colorful peonies.

"No need," the man's expression was indifferent, but when he landed on Song Xuan's body, he somehow became sticky and softened. "I'm here to pick you up."

Bai Heng looked startled.

The corners of Song Xuan's mouth curled up vaguely.

Ji Yunxi wore a dark Chinese dress, with gorgeous peony petals on the corners of her clothes, standing under the moon as if covered by a layer of tulle.

Not like the crown prince of a country, but like a flower demon born from a peony bush.

Song Xuan had such a weird thought, but it disappeared in an instant.

Bai Heng was caught off guard, Nian Xu said slowly: "Your Highness is very interested."

Ji Yunxi didn't even look away, and said flatly, "Sir, I have an appointment with Ben Gong to play chess."

Song Xuan also smiled and said: "That's right, I still have half a game of chess left with His Highness, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay overnight."

As he said that, he walked to Ji Yunxi's side and cupped his hands at Bai Heng: "If that's the case, I'll take my leave first."

These two people walked by the moonlight, the two backs were dark and the other light, and they looked extremely harmonious.

Fang Qiutang revealed a gloating look in his eyes, and asked calmly: "Master Bai, Mr. Song is gone, I wonder if I have the honor to live in this Xiangfu?"

Bai Heng was immovable: "Boss Fang is willing to stay overnight, so I naturally welcome him."

As he said that, the servant really led Fang Qiutang down.

At the side, Bai Heng's staff approached, looked at the direction where Song Xuan and the two disappeared, and said in a low voice: "My lord, Song Xuan is hard-edged and elusive, I'm afraid it's hard to control."

Bai Heng looked at Peony on the ground, and said calmly: "I didn't choose him, but Lu Qishang chose him. You heard it too, if I don't push him, he can stand on Lu Qishang's side."

The staff member whispered: "We still have a Chidanyi in our hands..."

"You have also seen the attitude of His Highness the Third Highness," Bai Heng said. "There is Lu Qishang in the front, and there are three highnesses in the back. What kind of national teacher is Chi Danyi?"

"Not to mention, the death of the late emperor is still a problem." Bai Heng's eyes turned cold. "You said Chidan Yi's elixir, what exactly is it?"

The staff was terrified: "You mean..."

"Even if it is poison, the first emperor swallowed it himself, no wonder others."

"If no one mentions it, it is an unsolved case, but if someone mentions it, Chi Danyi will be useless."

Bai Heng looked left and right among the peonies for a while, and still picked out a pot of half-mian brocade, handed it to the servants, and said: "This pot of peonies, together with that Tai Sui, was sent to the Star Picking Pavilion, and it was said that it was given to Mr. Song in advance. Congratulations."

"Yes."

The servant responded in a low voice.

Only then did Bai Heng slowly say: "Now that Lu Qishang has lost his mind, he only wants to implement his tax law, so we can't push Song Xuan to Lu Qishang's side."

"Furthermore..." Bai Heng squinted his eyes, moving the lines at the corners of his eyes, obviously the skin was already wrinkled, but his pupils were as clear as a boy's.

"This Song Xuan is probably not a puppet. I always feel that it might be a good thing to have him around."

The staff disagreed and said, "Where did you start talking about this, my lord?"

Bai Heng smiled slightly: "Just wait and see, I don't see many people wrong in my life."

===

"Thanks to your highness for being alert this time." Song Xuan said with a smile. "Otherwise I'd be in a bit of trouble."

"I'm not smart," Ji Yunxi said. "Song Xuan, I miss you."

Song Xuan paused and coughed: "Your Highness, this is outside."

"So what?" Ji Yunxi's eyes were slightly narrowed. "What are you afraid of?"

Song Xuan couldn't help speeding up his pace, pretending that he didn't hear it.

Ji Yunxi chased after two steps, and said with a smile: "Go slowly, I can't keep up."

Song Xuan didn't answer, only his footsteps slowed down unknowingly.Ji Yunxi raised the corners of his mouth secretly: "Since I helped, how can brother thank me?"

Song Xuan hesitated again and again before saying slowly: "I heard from Bai Xiang that tomorrow is the Peach Blossom Festival."

Peach Blossom Festival Dayao's unique festival, at first it was just a custom of spring outing, and later it gradually became a good day for young men and women to see each other and make love.

After hearing this, Ji Yunxi's eyes gradually lit up.

"The matter of the national teacher should be safe. When you can come out to play casually, I'm afraid it won't be too long." Song Xuan's voice was unhurried, as if every sentence was carefully considered before he said it. "I'm thinking... going out with you tomorrow, I wonder if you would like to?"

Ji Yunxi looked at him sharply.

Song Xuan's eyes flickered, his expression was well controlled, from his brows to the corners of his mouth, he was gentle and kind, as if he was a young man in white in a storybook, tactfully inviting his favorite girl.

Only Ji Yunxi could see that even the roots of his ears were completely red.

"Of course I would."

Ji Yunxi laughed.
