The next day, there was a Changxi banquet, which invited both officials and businessmen. Yuan Junyu originally planned to reject it, but I heard that several figures from the Songjiang Chamber of Commerce would also be there. Thinking of the shrewd second-in-charge, he finally agreed to go. meeting.

Yuan Junyu fastened her clothes, stepped down from a deep and deep bed, and glanced at a faint figure in the small study outside.Ning Ruichen had already got up, and was sitting at a small table there, separated by a beaded curtain, he couldn't see clearly.

The one named Xie... has no good intentions.Yuan Junyu thought, put on her outer robe, pushed aside the bead curtain, and walked towards the other end, maybe because she just got up, Ning Ruichen didn't even tie up his hair, it was also the same hairband, which was pulled carelessly behind his back.There is a white porcelain smoker at hand, and there is no smoke, and the men are writing scriptures.The paper is dark without traces and sprinkled with gold, the ink is finely tuned lacquered gold, and his calligraphy is also very square and simple. He should have studied the Wei stele for a while, and he has the appearance of studying under everyone.

"Which one did you write?" Yuan Junyu leaned against the cabinet at the entrance.

Hearing someone coming, Ning Ruichen raised his head, splashed some paint casually, and said, "Heart Sutra, I can't write too long in the morning."

Yuan Junyu walked behind him, studied his handwriting, and then straightened his hair: "Can't comb your hair?"

"I can't comb well." Speaking of his shortcomings, Ning Ruichen didn't have much grudges, so he stopped writing and let Yuan Junyu's fingers run back and forth between his hair.

"I want to borrow something from you today." Yuan Junyu said, and tied him a simple bun, "Lend me this clothes to wear back."

He was drunk yesterday, soiled his robe, and lost his composure, but now he speaks frankly.

"Don't you stay for two more days?"

"There is a table at noon, I have to go."

"That's right," Ning Ruichen nodded, "What kind of banquet did you eat? Those who greeted you? Those officials from Nanjing?"

"I have to go, I am very happy." Yuan Junyu thought for a moment, and then said: "It is said that there are still many merchants from Songjiang, and the people who came are similar to the last time."

Yuan Junyu seemed to have said these words unintentionally, but Ning Ruichen suddenly remembered something, obviously froze for a moment, and said: "They always come to Nanjing, are they planning to set up a shop here?"

Sure enough, something was wrong, Yuan Junyu tied the hairband for him lightly, and sat on the side: "Listening to the wind, it should be. The area around Qingliang Mountain, probably in Shicheng, is the land allocated to them by Chang Xi. Before we The second master I mentioned, I met him a while ago."

Ning Ruichen didn't respond, but he wasn't very happy about that.Yuan Junyu knew that it was time for her to stop, but without listening to what he said, a piece of flesh in her heart was always pinched, she remained calm for a while, and asked, "Have you seen him?"

In Yuan Junyu's heart, the answer was almost negative. Because of Ning Ji's majesty, Xie Yan probably didn't have the guts to visit.

However, Ning Ruichen became slightly suspicious when he heard this.As my elder brother said, Xie Yan wrote to tell his family about Yuan Junyu's past - Xie Yan might have good intentions, but with Yuan Junyu here, maybe it was provocation.

After all, it was because of the old friendship, Ning Ruichen pondered for a while, and hid it for Xie Yan: "No, we haven't seen each other for many years, maybe we don't recognize me anymore."

Coming out of the Nutmeg Pavilion, Yuan Junyu went straight to the garden where Chang Xi hosted the banquet.In broad daylight, the river houses on both sides of the bank are still noisy, and the vocalist in one of the boats sings the little lyrics of "Splitting the Jade". To be eliminated.

Going west along the river to the mansions of princes and sons, the cloying sound gradually faded away. Yuan Junyu entered the garden, and there were firemen surrounding him as he walked in. Along the way, he met Several people who came to the meeting together sat down in the garden. Chang Xi had already set up the table, and a few kabukis sat in front of them playing the piano and singing in a Siping accent. A woman dressed by Jiao Tong.

There were people coming one after another, and the venue was already bustling with laughter and greetings of brothers and sisters. Yuan Junyu had seen a few people, and sat on the side, watching the eunuchs in the middle court fight.After arguing for a while, with winners and losers, it inevitably became even more noisy. At this time, Chang Xi walked over with a smile on his face, and there were two actors with pink faces and peach cheeks beside him: "Master, why don't you play with us for a while?"

Yuan Junyu gave him face very much, pointing at the eunuchs who rolled up their sleeves and shouted: "That, I can't play," then raised his chin, and pointed at the kabuki who was plucking the strings, "That, I'm getting started."

Originally thinking this was his taboo, Chang Xi laughed loudly and clapped his hands: "Master Shizi is generous, we are not difficult, Yu Tuan'er come here and show Master Shizi his hands."

Hearing the movement, those who were making fists came over with wine and coaxed, and the two opera singers were also very good at invigorating the atmosphere. They touched the table with their tender white hands, "Master... the name of my family is Xiao Langan..." Jiao The beautiful boy exhaled like blue, and pressed it softly.

Yuan Junyu is not interested in this. He has seen so many children who have been poisoned, and he hates it.

Soon, Xiao Langan realized that he was making fun of himself, so he sat on the side obediently, helping the prince pour wine.

"I lost... drink..." Yu Tuan'er fell into Chang Xi's arms with a smile, squeezed a thuja wine glass in his hand, and moved it to Yuan Junyu's mouth, "The son of the world pays attention to my family... "

Just talking and laughing here, there was a sudden commotion outside the door. After a while, seven or eight people filed in, and the first one was the first to catch everyone: "I have arrived at the place! Uncle Wu, you are still so lively and interesting!"

With a northern accent, it was Cui Zhu who was dressed in normal clothes.

Looking at it again, besides two or three eunuchs who were close to him, the rest were a few merchants from the Songjiang Chamber of Commerce, Xie Yan, Zhang Shenxiu and the like, they seemed to be chatting happily.

"Nephew came by coincidence, come and fight with us for a few rounds." Chang Xi ignored the businessmen, pushed Yu Tuan'er out, put one foot on the stool, pulled up his sleeve, and gestured .

"I'm so unlucky, I don't dare to fight Fifth Uncle." Cui Zhu laughed loudly, pushed aside the crowd, and sat down next to Yuan Junyu, "I have to give Shi Zi a great reputation."

Yuan Junyu raised his eyebrows, which was a bright provocation, facing Chang Xi's half-smiling eyes, he also smiled boldly at the moment: "What's the fun in thumb fights, why don't you make some elegant ones."

Chang Xi's gaze then shifted to Cui Zhu.

"Your Majesty has spoken, let me tell you, what kind of elegance do you want?" Cui Zhu said, pulling Xie Yan to his side and forcing him to sit down: "Sit down, Weiqing!" Then he said : "There are a few gentlemen present here today, come on, come up with questions and questions."

Yuan Junyu leaned on the side of a cabinet, glanced at it, and said lazily: "Bring the pipa."

The two little opera singers quietly took a look at Chang Xi, their eyes were full of spring, staring intently, they moved a foot away like lotus steps in waves, and fetched a lute beside the kabuki.The people around the table spread out a little before standing still, and the sound of pipa like water poured out.

"Big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate!" Cui Zhu understood Yuan Junyu's meaning at once, stood up leisurely, and filled Chang Xi's wine: "Fifth Uncle, let's compose a poem for the Son of Heaven, No, it’s not bad to copy ancient poems.”

Chang Xi is not a book lover, but he knows a little bit of writing, and he can deal with a few crooked poems casually, so he took two beautiful boys in women's clothes, and went to have a drink and enjoy it.The rest of the table, forced by Cui Zhu, did not dare to leave, and all of them smiled and tried their best to echo Yuan Junyu's song.

When it came to Xie Yan, the tone of the pipa gradually lowered, and a piece of music stopped, only to hear Xie Yan turning the wine glass and answering absent-mindedly: "When we met, the red rain lit up the green moss, and after parting, the yellow leaves shone and condensed the evening mist. Today I see plums blooming." , stay away for half a year..."

"Ouch!" It was Cui Zhu who was in a mess again, as if he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, "It's the West Wing again. Boss Xie has come to Nanjing by himself, and he is always out of his mind. Why, do you miss your wife?"

After all, someone on the table laughed and said, "It's not a big deal to set up an outer room first!"

"I have here..."

Xie Yan waved his hands: "I'm not lucky, I'm not lucky."

"Hey——" Cui Zhu expressed his kindness, and raised his voice: "Boss Xie is a seed of infatuation. Don't talk about such things in the future!"

"Which man doesn't have an outside room, let alone someone like Boss Xie." The eunuchs and officials on the table laughed one after another, and some people in the noise urged: "Who didn't come here like this? Don't treat yourself badly!"

There was a lot of commotion on the wine table, but in fact, most of what was said was a joke. Xie Yan probably knew about Xie Yan's appearance and didn't take it seriously. After a while, he drank wine with everyone and talked about the business association Things, after a lot of tossing, it lasted until night.

The tables were messed up, and when they left the table, the people in the garden were gambling and fighting quail, and the members of the chamber of commerce were still awake, talking to Chang Xi and laughing from time to time.

With Xie Yan in front of him, Zhang Shenxiu had no time to escape, and bypassed a large pine and bamboo screen. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a voice came to his head: "Boss Zhang?"

It was Yuan Junyu, who was half lying on a low couch, holding a cup, which seemed to be tea for sobering up.

Zhang Shenxiu's heart skipped a beat, and he made a bow: "Your Highness, I'll meet you——"

"Why don't you go for a drink?"

"My family..." Zhang Shenxiu suddenly stopped talking, "I was too drunk to go back."

Yuan Junyu's expression softened a bit: "That's true."

"Speaking of which, the things sent by the prince a few days ago... I am really ashamed to accept it."

Yuan Junyu continued, "It's not for you."

Zhang Shenxiu choked, "Being flattered... as if shocked."

His dumb look does not seem to make Liu Jiao feel wronged, but who knows for sure, Yuan Junyu couldn't help but get angry when he saw him, he didn't look responsible at all, that's what he looked like, Made that bastard Liu Jiao so happy?

"Liu Jiao is my apprentice," Yuan Junyu glanced at him coolly, "Can I make him suffer?"
