Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

The girls here were arguing endlessly because of Lu Siheng, but he was drinking and admiring flowers happily over there.

Someone said to him: "How come our former romantic Mr. Lu is so calm about the beauties painting the boat over there now?"

The corners of Lu Siheng's lips curled up, "My young master has never been interested in ladies from aristocratic families. Besides, there are Runzhi's sisters and cousins ​​there, so you should restrain yourself and be careful of Runzhi beating you up."

"I forgot that Third Young Master Lu likes a woman as charming as Miss Qingyan."

"We didn't do anything. Aren't those girls looking in our direction?"

One of them laughed and said, "Is it you that girl is looking at? There are three of the four young masters from the capital here. They must have been attracted by Yongxuan on the bow of the boat. They must have looked at him, Runzhi, and Zixiu. .”

"Oh, if I had known this, I wouldn't have joined in the fun. I would have been their foil."

Li Run, the direct grandson of King Kang, lives up to his name, looks as gentle as jade, but behaves informally, "I heard from my sister that the lotus flowers are in full bloom on the lake, and the scenery is unique, so I invited you to come. If this little thing spoils everyone's mood, That wouldn’t be beautiful.”

"That's what Runzhi said." The person who spoke before said with cupped hands.

Shen Zhiming, who was outside, used a jade flute to pick up the curtain and come in.

Li Run greeted him, "Yongxuan is a truly elegant person, and he will live up to this beautiful scenery. Come and have a cup of tea."

"Thank you." Shen Zhiming sat down aside.

The sunset in the evening is the most beautiful scenery on the lake. People who come here to go boating on the lake step out of their cabins to enjoy this rare beauty.

The rays of rays in the west reflected the sky red, and the faces of the two brothers and sisters in Prince Kang's Mansion

The boats happened to be standing side by side, with only a few feet of space between them, and now they could all see each other clearly.

Some of the girls half-covered their faces with round fans, while others gave a generous salute to the painted boat over there.

Most of the men stopped joking and returned the favor.

The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. They are all at the same age as Shao Ai, and they are in such a poetic and picturesque environment. One young man couldn't help but whispered: "On the boat next to me are all famous ladies from the capital's families. As expected, they all have beautiful faces."

Someone replied to him: "Don't just look at a person's appearance, but also consider whether your own status is worthy of it. Not to mention the girls from Prince Kang's Palace and Duke Dingguo's Palace, she is the last girl in the family. Her father is also the fourth rank in the court." Minister."

The young master was silent for a moment, looking at her unwillingly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Which family does that girl in pink clothes standing next to come from? She looks so outstanding, I have never seen her before."

Perhaps out of curiosity, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to the girl in pink he mentioned.

"She is indeed a stunning beauty."

"Looking at her dress, she doesn't look like a girl from an official family, but more like a maid from some family."

"Whose maid is she? If she is familiar with her master's family, it would not be a bad idea to ask her to be a concubine."

Lu Siheng looked at the beautiful figure with her head raised and staring intently at the sunset, and showed a meaningful smile, "Little lady, do you know that you are being remembered?"

The sunset gradually faded, and a bright moon climbed up the branches. Lanterns were hung on the boat, and as the boat gently swayed, the warm lights reflected in the lake were really beautiful.

Restaurants or people arranged by each family rowed small boats to bring wine and food to the people on the boat.

Yunling and the other maids on the boat started preparing meals for the girls, and then retreated to the back.

Facing the exquisite and sumptuous dishes in front of her, a round-faced girl said: "Mi Zhen, you really spent a lot of money today. Not only did you let us take a boat trip to the lake, but you also prepared so much food."

Li Mizhen waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, as long as you can have fun."

She picked up her chopsticks and said, "Stop looking at it and eat it while it's hot."

Eating against the moon on the lake is also a unique experience.

As the night got darker, Li Mizhen ordered the boat to be sailed back to the shore.

Seeing that his sister was leaving, Li Run asked someone to follow her back.

The two boats arrived at the shore one after another, but the men got off faster than the girls.

Only one person was heard saying: "That maid actually belongs to Duke Dingguo's mansion. Now all your plans have come to nothing. The servants of Duke Dingguo's mansion are not easily sold."

On the other side, Yun Ling just helped Cui Yaying get off the boat.

"What a pity." A man sighed regretfully.

Li Run, who was walking in front, had already met Li Mizhen, and they were going back to Prince Kang's Mansion together.

Cui Yaying also came over to greet me, "Fifth cousin."

"Cousin Yaying," Li Run smiled warmly, "You haven't been to the palace for a few days. Grandpa talked about Qiyu a few days ago. If you have time, come to the palace to see him."

Cui Yaying nodded, "I miss my grandfather too. I'll discuss it with my mother when I get back."

Suddenly, there was a slight restlessness among the girls behind.

"It's my cousin." Li Mizhen followed the girls' gaze and saw the tall figure.

Cui Yaying happily greeted him, "Brother, why are you here?"

Cui Qiyan's face looked more three-dimensional under the moonlight

, "When mother learned that you hadn't gone back yet, she asked me to come over and take a look."

"I was with my cousin and my cousin, and my mother was too worried."

Li Run said: "I heard from my eldest brother that my cousin has been too busy since he arrived at the infantry camp. I was going to invite my cousin to go swimming in the lake with me, but my eldest brother stopped me and told me not to cause trouble for you."

"It's all trivial matters." Cui Qiyan glanced behind him, and his eyes fell on Lu Siheng.

Lu Siheng felt it and walked over as if nothing had happened, "Prince Cui meets again."

"My cousin knows Mr. Lu?" Cui Qiyan was surprised that the two of them could stand together.

Li Run nodded: "Brother Zixiu and I met last year, and we had a very pleasant conversation, and we have known each other since then."

Have a nice conversation? Cui Qiyan was curious about what the two of them could talk about. Li Run is his uncle's youngest legitimate son. He has been fond of elegant things like playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting since he was a child. As for Lu Siheng, it was said that he had no ideas, so he might be able to chat with him all night long about the girl from Baihualou.

I don't know if my uncle knows about my cousin's friendship with such a person. I'd better mention it to my eldest cousin when I meet him someday.

At this time, other young people also came to greet Cui Qiyan, and Cui Qiyan returned the greetings one by one.

Cui Qiyan then said to Li Run: "It's getting late. You should go back with your cousin as soon as possible, so as not to worry your uncle and aunt."

"Then cousin, let's take the first step."

After Li Run and Li Mizhen left, the others also dispersed one after another.

Before leaving, Shen Zhiming came here to say goodbye, "Brother Cui, long time no see."

Cui Qiyan nodded slightly, "I heard from Qi Han that you plan to take part in this year's provincial examination and prepare to become an official."

The wife of Cui Cheng, the third master of Duke Dingguo, is Shen Zhiming.

His biological aunt, speaking of it, he would also call Cui Qiyan his cousin, but he just wasn't used to it.

"Yes, after a few years of delay, my father said something this year." Shen Zhiming was a little helpless.

"You have good knowledge and should serve the imperial court."

The girls looked at Cui Qiyan and the others from a distance, whispering, "Today I can meet the fourth young master of the capital all at once. It's really a worthwhile trip."

"Yes, the four of them each have their own merits. It's really hard to choose."

The girls walked away laughing quietly.

After Cui Qiyan and Shen Zhiming finished speaking, they left respectively.
