Why hasn't His Highness written a letter of divorce?

On the day of the spring banquet, Jiang Qingning and Xiao Che sat in a carriage and entered the palace together.

Although it was a spring feast, in fact, summer was about to begin. Sitting in the carriage, Jiang Qingning felt a little hot. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing a small half of his fair arms.

"Your Highness, are you hot?" Jiang Qingning wrote.

Xiao Che looked at his exposed slender arms, then quickly looked away and wrote: "It's not hot."

"Oh." Jiang Qingning thought to himself, the ancients were really good at endurance, no matter how hot it was, they would wear clothes tightly, so what should we do in summer?

He was already thinking about whether he should make a short sleeve by himself.

"Did you solve the backgammon game yesterday?" Xiao Che asked suddenly.

Yesterday he left a chess game for Jiang Qingning. If Jiang Qingning can solve it alone, then it is possible to win the first place in today's banquet.

Jiang Qingning replied happily: "It's solved." Although the chess game that Xiao Che left yesterday was really difficult, after serious thinking, he still solved it.

Jiang Qingning has a smart mind and can learn everything quickly.

Xiao Che was relieved and wrote: "That's good."

Jiang Qingning remembered that Xiao Che had been helping her for the past few days, so she couldn't help asking: "How are the preparations for the Qushui Liushang that His Highness is going to participate in?"

Xiao Che was not prepared at all, and for him, there was no need to prepare anything, but he was afraid that Jiang Qingning would blame himself, so he wrote: "Ready."

Jiang Qingning felt relieved, thinking that Xiao Che should go back every night to prepare.

When we arrived at the palace, the palace was extremely lively today.

First there was the banquet, Jiang Qingning and Xiao Che were seated, next to them were the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince, Xiao Che and Jiang Qingning were seated between the other two princes, they were seated in order of seniority.

Jiang Qingning was looking at everything around him with great interest, when he suddenly heard the fifth prince sitting next to him say in a contemptuous tone: "This bastard dares to come, I don't know what kind of courage it is to let him sit here?"

Jiang Qingning frowned immediately, and he looked at the fifth prince, who was short and fat, drinking tea slowly, with a complacent look, Jiang Qingning felt disgusted when he looked at him.

Jiang Qingning looked back at Xiao Che, seeing that Xiao Che's expression hadn't changed, she was relieved, Xiao Che couldn't hear, this is sometimes a good thing for him, Jiang Qingning thought.

Xiao Che could only pretend that he didn't hear anything, he moved his fingers slightly, and a tiny thing bounced out from his fingertips.

With a "wow", the wine glass in the fifth prince's hand suddenly shattered, and the fragments cut his hand, which was covered in blood.

"Who is it?" The fifth prince was so frightened that he immediately got up from his seat and said angrily, "Who is harming me?"

His actions attracted the attention of other princes around, and the seventh prince said quietly: "Fifth brother, this is an ominous sign for you, with blood on your hands, you will definitely lose in tonight's competition."

"That's right, why don't you participate tonight, anyway, you are destined to lose." The other princes also echoed.

The fifth prince Xiao Heng was about to refute in anger, but saw a captivating gaze moving over, it was Emperor Yong'an who was sitting at the top.

Emperor Yong'an looked a little displeased, and the fifth prince was so frightened that he didn't bother to refute the other princes, and immediately sat on his seat.

Jiang Qingning heard the noisy voices of the princes just now, and looked over curiously, only to see the fifth prince's aggrieved expression.

Jiang Qingning still wanted to investigate, but Xiao Che suddenly stretched out his hand, turned Jiang Qingning's face away, and wrote on the paper: "There is nothing to be curious about, they are just arguing."

The food and wine were served quickly, and Jiang Qingning didn't have time to meddle in other people's business.

This is a serious court banquet, and Jiang Qingning just wants to feast on it.

In the middle of the banquet, there is a group of young women dancing, with beautiful figures and moving postures.

The other princes were staring intently, only Xiao Che never glanced at it from the beginning to the end, all his eyes were on Jiang Qingning, and Jiang Qingning only had eyes on the wine and food in front of him at this moment.

Seeing Jiang Qingning eating seriously, Xiao Che thought, Jiang Qingning has no interest in the beauty in front of him, so he probably likes himself.

Jiang Qingning felt that the wine was delicious and the food was also delicious, so it shouldn't be wasted.But thinking of participating in the competition after the banquet, he held back and didn't dare to drink too much, so he could only keep his head down and eat the food.

Turning his head suddenly, he found that Xiao Che didn't eat much food in front of him. Jiang Qingning saw Jiang Xuanping who was sitting opposite them, understood, and felt that Xiao Che must be depressed because he saw his sweetheart but couldn't be together. There is no interest in food and drink.

Jiang Qingning wanted to comfort Xiao Che, and wrote: "Your Highness, don't worry, the person you like will definitely like you, as long as the two love each other, they will be able to last forever."

Xiao Che was stunned, what was Jiang Qingning implying to herself?Could it be that he has discovered his own intentions and found that his eyes have been on him, so he wants to take this opportunity to express his intentions.

'The person you like must also please you', 'When two people are in love, they will last forever'.

Xiao Che's eyes fell on these words, and his heart suddenly beat fast again. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond to Jiang Qingning's fiery confession. After a long time, he finally wrote on the paper: "Well, it will last forever. .”

Jiang Qingning's eyebrows are curved, and her round almond eyes are very cute when she smiles. He thought to himself, it's right for Xiao Che to think about it this way. There will be a long time in the future, and there will be plenty of time for him and Jiang Xuanping to live forever and love each other.

Noticing that Jiang Xuanping's gaze was looking at them from time to time, Jiang Qingning really didn't like Jiang Xuanping, but she thought about who made him Xiao Che's favorite, and for Xiao Che's sake, she smiled back at him.

But he didn't expect Jiang Xuanping to be enraged immediately. From his point of view, Jiang Qingning's smile was showing off to him. He thought that Jiang Qingning was just his substitute. The person Xiao Che liked was always himself. Jiang Qingning, a fool, has nothing to show off. of.

The banquet is over, and after a while, various competitions will begin.

The first is the pot-throwing competition. The Fourth Prince, Fifth Prince, Seventh Prince, and Ninth Prince Xiao Li all participated.

Jiang Qingning and Xiao Che sat on their seats and watched with great interest.

To throw a pot is to throw arrows into the pot, and whoever hits the most will win.

The fifth prince Xiao Heng didn't know if he was really selected by the other princes, because his hands were stained with blood, so he had bad luck all day. worst.

When it came to the Shuanglu competition that Jiang Qingning wanted to participate in, Xiao Heng also participated.

In the first round, Xiao Heng played against Jiang Qingning, and Jiang Qingning won against Xiao Heng without much effort.

Xiao Heng looked angry and had nowhere to vent his anger, and he returned to his position. He participated the most, but he was the worst every time. Naturally, he felt aggrieved.

He looked at Xiao Che who was not far away from him, and wanted to take revenge on Xiao Che, a big guy, but he was afraid of being scolded by Emperor Yong'an, so he could only endure it.

Xiao Che looked at Jiang Qingning's side, not paying much attention to everything else, he thought that Jiang Qingning had already expressed his heart to himself, and from then on, they were in love with each other, and he would do his best to protect Jiang Qingning.

Jiang Qingning has reached the last game of the game, and he is competing with the Seventh Prince Xiao Qi.

Not only was Jiang Qingning sweating nervously on his forehead, but Xiao Qi was also the best among the princes. Jiang Qingning was really nervous when he played chess with him, but fortunately, the chess game that Xiao Qi played was taught to him by Xiao Che. Jiang Qing calmed down and thought carefully about the solution that Xiao Che had told him. At the last moment, he came back from the dead and turned defeat into victory.

Jiang Qingning and Xiao Qi got up from the chessboard, Jiang Qingning bowed: "His Royal Highness has accepted."

Xiao Qi smiled slightly: "This hall is convinced that I lost."

Xiao Qi left, and everyone else looked at Jiang Qingning.

Emperor Yong'an also didn't expect that Jiang Qingning would win the first place in the Shuanglu competition. He called people over and asked, "What reward do you want?"

Of course Jiang Qingning wanted something valuable, the more valuable the better, but she was also afraid that she would be dissatisfied with Emperor Yong'an for being too straightforward. After all, being with a king is like a tiger, so she cautiously pointed to a fan at Emperor Yong'an's hand and said: " I want the fan that His Majesty has at hand."

When Emperor Yong'an heard the words, he asked the eunuch beside him to give the fan to Jiang Qingning without asking any further questions.

Jiang Qingning got the fan, kowtowed to thank her, then got up and retreated, and returned to her seat.

Looking at the fan again at this moment, he felt regretful again. If he had known that Emperor Yong'an was so talkative, he should have ordered something more valuable.

Xiao Che seemed to see through his thoughts, and wrote: "In this palace, what else do you want?"

Jiang Qingning thought that he and Xiao Che had treated each other honestly, there was no need to hide it anymore, so he pointed to the most valuable thing he could see - a piece of suet white jade hanging on Emperor Yong'an's waist.

Jiang Qingning had read the information about jade before, and it was said that suet white jade is the best among jades, it has been very precious since ancient times, and has been highly valued by people. In ancient times, only emperors and generals were eligible to wear it.

Jiang Qingning just pointed at it casually, and didn't really expect to get such a precious thing. After all, if he dared to ask Emperor Yong'an for this jade pendant, he would undoubtedly want to pluck the tiger's hair, and Jiang Qingning didn't have the guts.

He turned his head and wanted to say something to Xiao Che, but Xiao Che had already got up.

Next, is the last item in all the competitions of the Spring Banquet, Qushui Liushang, which is also the item that Emperor Yong'an values ​​most every year.

This dynasty puts more emphasis on literature than martial arts, so winning the first place in the competition of Qushui Liushang will be rewarded by Emperor Yong'an.

The rule is that everyone sits in front of the running water, puts a cup full of wine in the water, and whoever floats in front of it will have to compose a poem, and finally compare whose poem is the best.

Jiang Qingning looked at Xiao Che nervously, and suddenly remembered the dream she had last night, the other princes were reading the poems she wrote aloud, only Xiao Che couldn't read.

Jiang Qingning thought worriedly, if Xiao Che really encountered this kind of difficulty, then she would go up and help Xiao Che read as if in a dream.

At this moment, Xiao Che turned his head and looked at him calmly.

It seems to be saying, whatever you want, I will fetch it for you.

Jiang Qingning: "..."
