Between the vast sea of ​​clouds

There are neither singing, dancing nor beauties, this banquet is simply boring.Chu Ming turned the wine glass in his hand a little impatiently, and suddenly regretted being the host to invite this fourth sister to the house.

No matter what she said, Chu Jun accepted it calmly, it was like punching cotton, which made people feel powerless and disgusting.Not to mention that the arch-nemesis Chu Yan has been sitting on the sidelines watching her jokes, Chu Ming was holding a breath in his heart, but still remembered the reason for his banquet today, and said calmly: "Fourth sister is going to open the house, if there is no one Just talk to Gu about it.”

Chu Yan interjected in time, and said: "If the fourth sister is short of people in the house, I, the elder sister, still have some useful subordinates, why don't I send them to you together?"

The two looked at each other in the air, there were countless sparks, Chu Ming snorted coldly and said: "Second sister, why don't you take care of your subordinates first."

Chu Jun's heart is like a bright mirror, so he naturally knows their plan. They just want to insert people in his mansion, but he smiled ignorantly: "The kindness of the two sisters is appreciated, and Chenghui Mansion will be closed in a few days." The roster has been reported, and we will select carefully at that time."

Chu Ming raised his eyebrows. This move was exactly what she wanted. The candidates on the roster can let her own people in, and save a lot of effort. , as long as you want it alone.”

Chu Jun has no feelings for this group of sisters, they only have pure interests, although blood is thicker than water, there has never been any friendship.She obediently complied, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

Chenghui Mansion is located next to the Ministry of Rites. It is said that it is not far away, but in fact there is still a distance.Standing outside the gate of Chenghui Mansion, Qingping looked at this tall and majestic mansion, with seven layers of cornices, a plaque held by two cranes, and stone drums and steles outside, with inscriptions written by Cheng Zu's relatives on it.

Due to the particularity of this place, the officials who come and go feel that they are extremely noble, almost comparable to the academician of the Imperial Academy.His speech is also very literary, he always pulls classical Chinese, quotes classics, and uses a lot of sage's words to say something, which is more pedantic than the most pedantic professor in government schools.Qingping stood dumbly listening to his boss's lecture, his heart was full of sadness.

After the training, it’s time for lunch. Everyone comes here to drink tea, eat snacks, and share the latest gossip. Because Chengjue and King have to go through Chenghui Mansion, so many of them don’t like it. The hidden secrets that people know will be wiped out.

Perhaps gossip is a constant pleasure of human beings. When she first entered Chenghui Mansion, she first listened to the gossip with one ear. When she was fishing for fish, she suddenly heard the word "Xin Wang", and she pricked up her ears.

"...It is said that the mansion has been opened. Didn't the Ministry of Households give a report, saying that it has almost been repaired."

"It is said to be a prince, but this mansion is too remote. Although there are Zhuangzi fields in the suburbs of Beijing, they are not as good as the others."

"After all, it was later. Your Majesty is not very concerned, and the people below are just so-so!"

"The people under me are unwilling to go to the palace, begging me not to report my name to the master. Also, the foundation of King Yue and King Qi is solid, so what is there to look forward to? It is nothing more than a future seal Why bother if you have to go to the same place together?"

Qingping listened silently, thinking of what he had heard and seen these days, he had a general understanding of Chu Jun's current situation.To be precise, it means that my father is not around and my mother does not love me, which can be said to be very hard work.Although he was named a prince, in terms of status and power, he was still inferior to the two princesses who had been lingering in Beijing for a long time.She remembered that she had traveled many times without a guard of honor, just a lonely carriage, which was really very low-key.

She has also tasted the feeling of having a family and then losing it, like a world collapsed and separated, and the harm caused to people cannot be easily erased.She suddenly remembered the many visits by Chu Jun, and felt that she seemed to be living an unsatisfactory life.

That being the case, why go back to the royal family?Qingping didn't understand it very well, but he felt more sympathy for her.But she doesn't know whether Chu Jun needs this sympathy, after all, sometimes she is so strong that Qingping always forgets her age.

How can a girl at this age not have expectations for family affection?Even if it is sporadic, when you are lonely, there will always be a little bit of it, right?

She remembered that she slept at the end of her bed that day, whether she also had this feeling of loneliness, that's why she wanted to find someone for company.Such an explanation made sense, and all the strange behaviors of Chu Jun before seemed to have a reasonable answer.

Ever since she entered Qingping of Chenghui Mansion, she felt that she had nothing to do all day long. It was not as interesting as when she was doing sacrificial wine at the government school. Although she was busy, every day was still meaningful. Unlike now, she felt that every day was muddle-headed.

Same as her was Feng Yun, who was suspended from her job at home because of her six-month salary was deducted, and she had to wait two months to report.When I was sending my niece to a private school, I ran into Qingping by chance. The two felt sorry for each other. In addition, Fengyun had said earlier that she would entertain Qingping. In order to prove that she was a trustworthy person, she slipped out one day while her elder sister was away and blocked Chenghui. Waiting for Qingping outside the house.

Under her warm invitation, Qingping had no choice but to go with her. Fengyun is a person who knows how to take care of the emotions of those around him. Qingping is naturally very easy-going, and the two hit it off immediately. Xianglou to go.

The Wanxiang Building by the Mingxia Lake is lit up with red lanterns after nightfall, and there is an endless stream of merchants, wealthy businessmen, and noble ladies from aristocratic families. It is a lively time.

Qingping leaned on the railing and looked at the silvery water surface in the distance. It was late autumn, the moon was high, and the wind was blowing, bringing a little chill.But the attendants of Wanxiang Building are still wearing light gauze clothes, the floor heating in this building has been ignited early, the warmth is mixed with the scent of rouge, making people intoxicated.

At least Fengyun was intoxicated. Under Qingping's teasing eyes, she admired the attendants who came and went, and said forcefully: "Food and sex are also sex."

A cup of scented tea was placed in front of Qingping, which she had just fought for.For this reason, Feng Yun laughed at her, she didn't mind, and looked around curiously.

Feng Yun drank some wine, held the glass and approached Qingping and said, "Hey, Qingping, do you have a family?"

Qing Ping said: "Not at all."

"Tsk." Feng Yun shook her head, with that kind of knowing smile, "How about having some fun with you?"

She didn't need to elaborate on Qingping's meaning of this fun, she waved her hand and said: "No need, Mr. Feng, please keep it for yourself to enjoy."

Feng Yun thought she was young and thin-skinned, so she was not ashamed to say such things in the open, but she just knew Mu Shaoai, so how could she not even think about it?Then he acted like someone who came here, rang the bell to call the waiter, gave some careful instructions, and then looked at Qingping with enigmatic eyes.

Qingping thought that you can arrange it as you like, and it will be fine if I don't go when the time comes.Feng Yun smiled and clinked glasses with her again, with a hint of malice.

After thirty days of drinking, Fengyun used an excuse to go to the toilet, Qingping sat and waited for her to come back, bored poking the vegetables on the plate with chopsticks, at this time someone came to invite her to the herringbone room, Qingping just said: "No, no. go."

The maid didn't know what to do, she still insisted that Qingping go with her.Knowing that this was Fengyun's fault, Qingping ran away halfway and left the matter to himself to solve.She stood up and said to the maid: "That's it, you go ask that person to prepare, I'll go right away."

The maid did not suspect him, and left after saluting.Qingping walked down the stairs as if nothing had happened, then quickened his pace and walked towards the exit.It's just that she was here for the first time, and she was not familiar with this place, so she went around several times, and finally came to a long corridor inexplicably.

Hearing the noise of people, a person ran staggeringly on the promenade, followed by a group of people.Seeing this, Qingping knew that she had found the wrong place, and turned to leave. The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. She moved to the side, but who knew she was hugged from behind.

The visitor smelled of alcohol, Qingping pressed her hand and turned to look at the drunkard who had misidentified him, a group of people behind him were about to catch up, Qingping took a closer look, isn't this the group of government students who just finished the scientific examination? ?Then I went to look at the drunk who was on his body, whoever it was if it wasn't Wu Ying.

Wu Ying was obviously drunk, and kept saying "No more, no more", Qingping helped her up, and the group of students chased after her, but the troublemakers were still yelling: "Don't let her go, how can the drinking order go halfway?" Escape?"

It was not until Qingping was in front of everyone that everyone realized that this was... the Master Jijiu in the official school?

Everyone had no choice but to salute: "Master Jijiu is well."

What could be more embarrassing than coming to Hualou for a drink and meeting your former teacher?Probably because Li Jijiu's usually indifferent and serious appearance was too intimidating, the students looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Qingping looked at them quite speechlessly, and said calmly: "You can relax after the exam, but don't go too far."

Everyone responded in unison, Qingping looked at Wu Ying who was in a mess, feeling a little tricky, and said: "I'll take her back, you guys continue, remember not to play too late, go back early."

After speaking, she helped Wu Ying to walk outside, but no one dared to stop her, so she could only watch her take Wu Ying away.Qingping found a maid to lead the way, and wanted to call a carriage to take Wu Ying back, but he didn't know where Wu Ying lived.He propped her up and asked, "Wu Ying, where is your home?"

Wu Ying was drunk and dazed, blinked her eyes, pressed Qingping's shoulder and said suddenly: "I recognize you..."

Qingping laughed and said: "You don't recognize me?"

Wu Ying's cheeks were slightly red, she reached out to hug her and said, "I miss you very much..."

The maid in front looked back at them, and asked ambiguously, "Do you two guests want a wing room?"

Qingping gritted his teeth and said, "No need, just lead the way quickly."

The maid curled her lips where she couldn't see, thinking she was used to such inconsistent guests, she didn't say much, and led them to the back door.

Entering through the front door and exiting through the back door is a common occurrence in this place of fireworks.Qingping didn't know that she was leading the way to the back door, so he dragged Wu Ying along the way, only to realize that it was a remote alley at the back, and he didn't know where to find a carriage. Close the door.

What is this? Standing in a dark alley, Qingping had to drag a drunk to prevent her from falling to the ground. It was simply miserable. Thinking of everything today, Qingping directly took it all to account Feng Yun's head.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and drag Wu Ying for a while, when a carriage passed by in the dark and almost ran into them.

As soon as he was in shock, Qing Ping kept an eye out and walked against the wall.After walking for a while, the front gradually became brighter. She thought it was the main entrance of Wanxiang Building, but when she walked in, she realized that it was not.This place seems to be a waterside pavilion, I think it is the corner of Mingxia Lake, there are several boats on the lake, at first glance, it looks like princes and nobles, rich merchants and merchants take a night tour with beauties, and entertain guests on the cruise ship.

A boat slowly approached the shore. Seeing this, Qingping knew that he had found the wrong way, so he had to help Wu Ying to return to the original way.But the drunk suddenly got awkward, and refused to leave desperately, Qingping pulled her to persuade her in a low voice to no avail, the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and everyone on the boat got off.

They had their own carriages and horses to pick them up, Qingping bowed and splashed the lake water on Wu Ying's face, she shook and slowly opened her eyes, Qingping thought she was sober, and happily said: "Are you awake? Can I go?"

Wu Ying looked around slowly, and finally fixed her gaze on Qingping. She murmured: "Why are you here? Could it be that I was dreaming?"

Qingping said: "It's not a dream, get up quickly. I'll take you back, where does your family live?"

Wu Ying looked at her for a while, her eyes fluttered, and she hesitated to speak. Qingping was about to help her up, but she stretched out her hand and pushed her back against the pillar; Wu Ying pursed her lips, looking unhappy. Qing Ping didn't know why she was angry, so he said helplessly, "What's wrong with you?"

Suddenly a softness slid across his face, Qing Ping was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wu Ying in disbelief, Wu Ying hugged her and buried her head on her neck, Qing Ping only felt a pain in her neck, Wu Ying actually bit her!She pushed her away suddenly, Wu Ying staggered to the ground, sat on the ground and laughed softly.

She clutched her neck and felt a circle of teeth marks, which felt a little tingling.Her heart was beating fast, and this matter was developing so fast that it almost exceeded her cognition.

Why Wu Ying kissed herself, she had a vague guess in her heart, but she couldn't believe it.She stood for a while, when she heard footsteps, she subconsciously looked over there.

Wu Ying suddenly got up from the ground, walked crookedly towards Qingping, Qingping gave her a cold look, and said, "You're drunk."

Wu Ying looked at her obsessively, and said, "I'm not drunk, I know who you are!"

"No." Qingping said decisively, "You drank too much, go back."

Wu Ying said: "What do you know? You don't know anything!"

Saying that he wanted to hug Qingping again, Qingping pushed her away and said every word: "I don't want to know. I just pretend that what happened tonight never happened, Wu Ying, go back."

Wu Ying was stabbed by the indifference in her words, and said bitterly: "Are you so heartless and ungrateful, yes! I should have known earlier, you are such a person!"

Qingping whispered: "...Go back and be friends, isn't it good?"

There was sadness and joy in Wu Ying's eyes, and she choked up and said, "No, who wants to be your friend! You are a crook who doesn't keep promises!"

Qingping only felt that her temples were jumping with joy, Wu Ying was staggering and about to fall, Qingping stretched out his hand to help her, and saw that her eyes were closed tightly, and she was still talking about liars and so on.

Wu Ying was on top of her, their clothes were disheveled, and their postures were ambiguous. If a passer-by passed by at this time and heard what he said before, nothing would turn into something.

She couldn't help but rejoice that it was night, and there were few people coming and going near the waterside pavilion, but she didn't know what to do with Wu Ying, and she was worrying, when suddenly someone said: "Qingping."

Qingping's heart skipped a beat, and when she looked up, Chu Jun was standing not far away, a small piece of light was cast by the lantern in front of the water pavilion, her face was not very clear in the dim light.

The author has something to say: I'm sorry, sorry, there are a lot of things during the day, it's late, I'm sorry, the storm is crying.
