The Words of the Number One

After King Zhao abandoned Wu State and began to cooperate with Fan State, the nobles in Ling'an seemed to have sensed the direction of the wind. At first, the dignitaries and dignitaries who had been hiding from Ji Yu expressed their kindness one after another. Yu sent a post inviting him to go, and Ji Yu pushed that most of the people who were close to each other before would go to the banquet.

Ji Yu suddenly became the most popular figure in Ling'an City, but Shen Baiwu just watched with cold eyes.

Gu Ling told me that Shen Baiwu first met Ji Yu when he came to Luoyi to accept the gift from the emperor, and he didn't like Ji Yu very much at that time. Shen Baiwu has many expectations. He has been dignified and stable since he was a child and learned from others, while the fourteen-year-old Ji Yu is rebellious and frivolous and has no business. Shen Baiwu is completely two extremes. It has always been difficult for him to understand that Ji Yu would become "close friends" with Shen Baiwu.

—Probably just happened to share weal and woe together, so we barely became friends. I always feel that Shen Baiwu has a heart-to-heart knot with Ji Yu. Did Ji Yu cheat Shen Baiwu before?

Gu Ling guessed so.

I think that the fourteen-year-old Ji Yu is reckless and frivolous, but now Ji Yu looks steady and elegant, and he has the shadow of Shen Baiwu before. Before, I guessed that Ji Yu was responsible for Shen Baiwu's weakness, but after getting along with Shen Baiwu, he didn't seem to have any resentment towards Ji Yu, so it shouldn't be Ji Yu's problem.

But I didn't tell Gu Ling, after all, Ji Yu has nothing to do with me now.

A steady stream of posts were handed over to Ji Yu and also to Shen Baiwu, no matter whether Ji Yu went or not, Shen Baiwu always refused, until Mr. Nan Huai sent the posts about the birthday party to Mr. Cheng Guang's mansion. And Ji Yu is an old friend of Nan Huai Jun, so naturally he also received the invitation.

Nan Huai Jun is the younger brother of the late king, although he is not a few years older than Shen Baiwu, he is Shen Baiwu's uncle. For such an elder's birthday party, Shen Baiwu's health is not bad recently, so according to the etiquette, he should go there.

I helped him change into the banquet dress, the layers of clothes were not as soft and light as usual, Shen Baiwu frowned. I thought it was my heavy hand that hurt him, so I apologized repeatedly. He looked at my figure from the bronze mirror, and suddenly said: "Speaking of which, you are almost my aunt."

The image of Shen Baiwu saluting and calling me aunt came to my mind, it was so weird that I couldn't help laughing. Hearing my laughter, Shen Baiwu also smiled slightly.

"Mr. Nan Huai is a very nice person. If he knows that you are still alive, he should fulfill the engagement, but you can only be a concubine. Do you still want to marry him?" Shen Baiwu seemed to be asking me this question seriously.

"No, I don't want to get married." I answered simply and helped him tie his belt.

"Why don't women marry?"

"Aren't you also unmarried?"

I heard that Shen Baiwu originally had a marriage contract, but after he came back from Yan Kingdom, he broke off the engagement by himself, and since then, he never mentioned marriage again.

"That's because I don't want her to be my widow."

I looked up at Shen Baiwu's serious expression, and said with a smile: "Then we are pretty much the same. I don't know how to love, and I don't know how to be a wife. Whoever marries me is no different from a living widower."

Shen Baiwu didn't seem very happy when he heard the words, he let me straighten his wrinkles and didn't even look at whether it's all right or not, he just followed me and said: "Who said that to you? Don't worry about other people's bad mouths. Things don't necessarily have to be love, I don't know how many people cherish a transparent and intelligent person like you."

I looked at Shen Baiwu with some surprise, maybe I watched him for too long. Shen Baiwu coughed twice, his pale face rarely showed a trace of blood.

Or embarrassment.

"Thank you, I am very happy to hear you say that." I helped him straighten the last wrinkle of his clothes, and held his hand: "I will take good care of you during this time. You are also a person worth cherishing , Cheng Guangjun."

Shen Baiwu's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Nanhuai Jun's mansion covers a lot of land, so the formation is also very large. When I was helping Shen Baiwu to get off the carriage, the servant at the door shouted "Mr. Cheng Guang is here!", the voice was so loud that Shen Baiwu frowned, and unconsciously clenched the hand supporting me.

It was torture for a quiet man like him to attend a banquet.

Ji Yu's carriage was right behind Shen Baiwu, and they each prepared generous gifts for Mr. Nan Huai. The seating arrangement at the banquet was that Ji Yu was next to Shen Baiwu, and this time Ji Yu was finally able to formally sit in the guest's seat and drink with everyone.

Mr. Nan Huai is a person who pays attention to ostentation, the mansion is very big and the banquet is grand, the food is more abundant than Princess Yongchang's spring banquet before. Shen Baiwu's sense of taste has gradually become insensitive due to years of drinking medicine, so he doesn't like to eat very much, and he eats very little every meal on weekdays.

I used serving chopsticks to serve him dishes, but I saw that he stopped after taking one bite of each dish, so I asked him in a low voice, "Can't you taste the taste?"

Shen Baiwu nodded.

It's such a pity, the table full of delicacies, even smelling it makes my index finger twitch.

I helped him pick up a lion head with crab powder and put it in his bowl, and said: "You might as well imagine that there are shrimps caught from the Qingling River this morning, and crab powder from East Lake crabs, fresh and tender. A little fishy smell. The delicious taste is like a light **** on the tip of the tongue, and the gravy is mellow like the first furnace of dulan, rich and not greasy..."

Shen Baiwu was a little surprised but he didn't stop me. After listening to my description, he actually ate the whole lion's head in one bite. This is really an incredible improvement. I asked him if he thought this dish was more delicious, and he gave an affirmative answer. I imitated this method and described to him one by one the delicacies on the table. Shen Baiwu laughed when he heard it, and finished eating with a smile.

Seeing that the food intake is more than twice the usual, I feel very relieved.

While eating, Shen Baiwu suddenly put down his chopsticks, turned his head and said to me: "Have you ever thought about..."

"Ah, I'm so sorry."

A voice from the table next to him interrupted Shen Baiwu's words, and when I turned around, I saw a young gentleman saluting Ji Yu with an apologetic face, as if he accidentally knocked over Ji Yu's wine glass. For some reason, Ji Yu looked at me and met my eyes, and turned back to the young master in just a moment, smiling and saying it's okay.

This is the first time we have met our eyes today.

Just when I was about to look away, he smiled brightly at Shen Baiwu in a blink of an eye, and said, "Cheng Guang-jun, I happen to be out of wine here, can I lend you a glass on the table?"

I heard that Ji Yu didn't drink alcohol and would always replace the wine with water, so why bother?

Shen Baiwu nodded and said to me: "Jiujiu, you can go."

Hearing Shen Baiwu calling me Jiujiu, Ji Yu's eyes froze slightly. I walked over to Ji Yu's table with the jug. He usually has a good appetite, but today the dishes on the table didn't move much. I glanced at his table and knelt down beside him to pour him wine. Ji Yu laughed softly and said, "Jiujiu? It seems that you have become very close these days."

After a pause, he said lightly, "You take so much care of him, and it's really sad that you are so inferior to me."

He was like this every time, his eyebrows drooped slightly as if he was really sad, I don't know how much sincerity and how much lies. Maybe it's because he pretended to do too much, and he can't tell the difference.

I poured the wine, turned my head and smiled and said, "I am also very attentive when I do things for you."

The tone was polite and flat.

The haze behind Ji Yu's smiling eyes became even heavier.

Halfway through the banquet, Mr. Nanhuai invited the dancers and musicians to come up to perform music and dance. The dancers were graceful in pink clothes, and the chime bells, pipes, and flutes were in perfect harmony. All the guests praised the musicians at Mr. Nanhuai's house for their superb skills .

Zhao Wang loves chess like his life, while Nan Huaijun is obsessed with music. Before, Xia Wan heard that Nanhuai Jun took the initiative to befriend Ji Yu because he liked Ji Yu's group of musical maids, and he even paid a lot of money to buy these eight girls. I turned my head to look at Ji Yu, but I saw him squinting his eyes at the musicians, his eyes were extremely cold, and he was slowly rubbing his thumb and index finger.

Ji Yu's expression was not quite right.

A dancer walked out of the dancers and began to dance solo. At this time, the other drum music stopped, and only the melodious sound of the piano was dancing with the dancer. Inexplicably, I felt that the sound of the music was unspeakably familiar, but I saw that Shen Baiwu and Gu Ling beside me changed their faces together, and they looked at Ji Yu Jiyu in unison, but they didn't seem to notice it.

"What's the matter with the luthier?" Shen Baiwu immediately called the servant of Nan Huaijun's house, and said in a low and serious voice.

The servant didn't know, and said: "This is a new qin master. He plays the qin well and writes well. Mr. Nan Huai likes him very much."

"He said this piano is his? He wrote this piece?"

"Exactly."

When Gu Ling heard this, his face became so dark that he couldn't see it. He cursed a curse word and pressed his sword and was about to step forward: "I'm going to fuck..."

I immediately grabbed him and said in a low voice, "What are you doing! This is Mr. Nan Huai's birthday banquet! Do you want to be kicked out?"

"Damn it..." Gu Ling glanced at Ji Yu's back, gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, but his eyes were red: "This is Ji Yu's piano! This is Ji Yu's song! This is the song he wrote for Ji Yu." Li and Ji Le's birthday song!"

Shen Baiwu looked back at Gu Ling, and Gu Ling also forgot to pretend to stare at Shen Baiwu angrily at this moment. I followed Shen Baiwu's instructions and pulled Gu Ling down to sit beside him. Shen Baiwu said in a cold and low voice: "Calm down, Gu Ling."

Sure enough, Shen Baiwu already knew that Ding Sheng was Gu Ling.

Gu Ling was stunned, but his anger was still there. He put aside the panic of revealing his identity and said: "Mr. Cheng Guang, you recognize Ji Yu's qin, this is obviously 'Drunk Life'! He took Ji Yu's qin Take the music as your own!"

The sound of the drums played again, blending the sound of the violinist into it. Shen Baiwu glanced at Ji Yu at the next table. Ji Yu stared intently at the luthier smiling more and more vividly, as if seeing the most interesting thing in the world, which is I have seen the look he had when he killed Pei Mu.

"Ji Yu doesn't need others to help him with this kind of thing." Shen Baiwu said.

Shen Baiwu—a nice man bought a share as a token of respect

Ji Yu - overturn the vinegar jar

Gu Ling—everyone knows his identity, only he is still conscientiously disguising (the only player with closed eyes in the audience)
