Rong Yan seemed to have a sense of it, and he turned his head to meet Liang Ji's gaze.The gaze was not only as hot as usual, but also a little more probing. Rong Yan thought that this person had something to say to him, so he couldn't help blinking, but Liang Ji had already withdrawn his gaze.

Liang Ji and Rong Yan never spoke a word during the whole banquet.

Although the two of them don't talk much on weekdays, the intersection between the two has never been much on this occasion.But today the two sat so close, Rong Yan could see the man's high nose bridge as long as he turned his eyes slightly, which made him feel a little indescribable emotion.

But that emotion only appeared for a moment, and then he suppressed it, calmly coping with the banquet in front of him.

The night before last, he drank too much wine and hardly slept much. Just now he stood at the court meeting for a long time, and the drowsiness gradually came to his head. Taking advantage of no one paying attention to him, Rong Yan rested his chin with his hand, lowered his eyes and closed his eyes quietly. Doze off.

Rong Yan didn't open his eyes until he felt the noise around him gradually dissipate, and found that the banquet was finally over, the courtiers were walking out one after another, and the seat beside him was already vacant.

Rong Yan glanced at it, pursed his lips and stood up, only then did he feel something slipping from his shoulders, subconsciously looked to the ground, and saw a very familiar cloak—it was Liang Ji who was wearing it outside the court clothes in the morning that piece.

There is still a Liang Ji's cloak in his house that has not been returned, but now there is another one.

Rong Yan's Adam's apple trembled slightly, and he looked at the cloak with a complicated expression for a while, then finally picked it up with a bow, hugged it in his arms, and followed the crowd towards the outside of the hall.

As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, he saw Gao Chun who was still standing at the gate: "I thought His Highness had already left?"

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help yawning.

"Seeing that you haven't come out yet, I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet. I'm planning to go in and take a look." Gao Chun's face was calm, and he didn't think he was being rude. His eyes fell on his hands, "Rongzhi's cloak? The court clothes left."

Rong Yan unconsciously clenched the cloak in his hand with his fingers, and then smiled softly: "So it belongs to General Liang? I saw it on the ground when I just got up, picked it up, and planned to ask the servant to ask. "

While speaking, he handed the cloak to Gao Chun: "In this case, please pass it to him when your Highness is free."

Gao Chun glanced at the cloak, then nodded: "Alright." He took the cloak and passed it to the attendant behind him.

Rong Yan looked at the cloak casually, and then said to Gao Chun: "Your Highness is waiting here, do you have something to ask me?" He hid his hands in his sleeves, and talked to Gao Chun Walking forward side by side, they said, "But it doesn't matter."

Gao Chun glanced back, the attendant immediately slowed down and kept a distance from the two.

Only then did Gao Chun turn to Rong Yan, and said slowly, "If Brother Chen hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known that you and your sister had a connection." He turned his head and fixed his eyes on Rong Yan, "You Do you really want to ask to marry the imperial sister?"

"Your Highness is always well-informed. You should also know that His Highness the Crown Prince stopped my invitation to Prince Ji's Mansion that day, and invited me to have a long talk outside the city...the talk was about this matter."

Rong Yan smiled slightly, and continued: "Your Highness was born in an emperor's family, and I have experienced a lot of helplessness. You should understand that with my current status, I have a lot of things I can't help myself. Moreover, His Highness the Crown Prince's proposal came after As far as I am concerned, it is indeed beneficial and harmless, if I succeed in marrying the princess and get the protection of Xu State, even if I am unable to achieve great things in the future, I will not be cornered, I can't find a reason to refuse."

Gao Chun frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about Rong Yan's words, and then nodded: "Brother Huang proposed to you, you have already weighed the pros and cons, and you will not refuse if you are determined."

"I just found out that His Highness Ji Wang has other plans." Rong Yan apologized, "If His Highness's plan is disrupted, I can find an excuse to reject His Highness the Crown Prince. After all, the matter has not been brought before the Holy One, so I will return it." There can be a turnaround."

Gao Chun glanced at him, then shook his head: "For this reason, offend Brother Huang, you will not be so comfortable in Longcheng from now on."

"To offend His Highness the Crown Prince, isn't there His Highness Ji Wang?" Rong Yan smiled softly, "Your Highness will never treat me as an abandoned son, and abandon me?"

Gao Chun narrowed his eyes, and after a while, he said, "I do have original plans for the marriage of the imperial sister. However, whether it is the emperor's brother or... the queen mother, they should not let me do what I want. In this case, instead of letting the imperial sister marry For an irrelevant person, it's better to be like Brother Huang said, I will take a step back with him, and it will be done for you."

Rong Yan blinked, and bowed to Gao Chun: "Then Rong Yan thanked His Highness first."

Gao Chun shook his head with a smile: "If you really marry the imperial sister, you will be my sister-in-law. Since you are my own family, why should you be polite? At that time, I can also go along with the flow and ask for an errand from the imperial father for you. From then on, you will be in Longhua It will be more convenient to do things in the city.”

As he spoke, he took Rong Yan's arm affectionately: "It's very cold, let's go quickly."

Rong Yan nodded: "Okay."

All the way out of the palace and back to the mansion, bumping on the carriage for a long time, the dissipated drowsiness came back again, Rong Yan yawned and got off the carriage, the steward greeted him, Rong Yan just glanced at him and knew that he had something to do To say it, Wei cheered up and said, "What's the matter?"

The steward followed Rong Yan into the courtyard, and said, "When you leave today, there are guests from the house."

"Huh?" Rong Yan thought for a while, most of the people he knew in Longcheng had attended the court meeting today, and he really couldn't think of anyone else who would come to the mansion on such a day, "Do you know the name?"

The steward shook his head: "It's a young master who hasn't reached the crown yet. He didn't say who he is, but... holding a invitation from the Prince's Mansion."

"Prince's Mansion?" Rong Yan shook his head lightly, "I see, where is he now?"

"Young master is not in the mansion. The villain didn't want to welcome him, but he insisted on coming in. The villain was afraid that he might be someone from the prince's mansion, so he didn't dare to offend him, so he invited him in. Now he is drinking tea in the main hall." Rong Yan led him to the entrance of the main hall, "The villain thinks that if the young master doesn't come back, he will find a reason to see off the guests later."

Rong Yan raised his head and looked at the sky: "He is my old acquaintance, if he comes again in the future, no matter whether there is a call letter or not, I am in the house or not, just invite him in." After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to push the door, " Have someone prepare some pastries and candied fruit."

The room was very quiet, when Rong Yan approached, he realized that Yi Ren was taking a nap on the table, with half of his face exposed outside, sleeping ignorantly, obviously in someone else's house, but without any precautions.

Rong Yan smiled slightly, reached out and patted the young man's shoulder.

Yi Ren sat up straight slowly, her big round eyes were full of bewilderment, she stared at Rong Yan for a long time before she fully woke up and yawned: "Are you back? Was Xu Ren's court meeting fun? "

Rong Yan felt drowsy again because of his yawn, and took a sip from the teacup at hand: "How can the court meeting be fun?"

Yi Ren thought for a while, then nodded, "I think so."

Rong Yan poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, and looked carefully at his face: "It seems that the prince did not lie to me, you are indeed doing well in his house."

"You know Gao Cong too?" Having said that, Yi Ren nodded again, "That's right, you can even go to Prince Ji's mansion for a banquet, so it's not unusual to know the prince. No wonder he said he would come to you in person when he went out this morning Sit down at the house and pick me up by the way."

Rong Yan paused for a moment, looked at Yi Ren intently for a while, and suddenly asked, "It sounds like you are very familiar with the crown prince?"

"I saved his life before." Yi Ren frowned and took a sip of tea, as if she didn't like the taste very much, put down the teacup, met Shang Rongyan's inquisitive gaze, and explained to herself, "I first arrived in Longcheng. It was just autumn, and I lived in the mountains outside the city, not only being able to avoid Qi Ke's men, but getting to the Northland with difficulty, and also looking for medicinal materials that I had only seen in books before."

Yi Ren put down the tea in his hand with some distaste, and continued: "Then I met Gao Cong who brought people to hunt in the mountains. In order to chase a wild deer, he fell into the mountain stream, and I rescued him ashore. Connected his broken bones. I left when I saw his subordinates approaching, but I didn't expect him to be the crown prince."

"So, you were also willing to take him away from Prince Ji's mansion that day?" Rong Yan rubbed his forehead and smiled softly, "It's really unexpected."

While the two were talking, UBS knocked on the door and came in with the prepared pastries and preserves, carefully placing them in front of Yiren.

Yi Ren thanked her, then looked at the teacup in her hand, frowned slightly and said, "Have you Xu people always drank this kind of tea?"

UBS looked at Rong Yan blankly, Rong Yan smiled lightly and motioned him to go down.Then he pointed to the cakes beside him: "Xu country does not produce tea. Although we have established a business relationship with Wei, the good tea brought in is limited, and I was not used to drinking it before..."

Yi Ren listened to his words, bowed her head and took another sip, the disgust on her face was still very obvious: "Didn't you stay in Xu country longer than me, did you get used to it so quickly?"

Rong Yan was stunned, and then laughed: "Maybe because I have too many things to worry about now, I don't have the heart to worry about such small things." After he finished speaking, he looked at Yi Ren, "Since you are not used to being here, why not Go home earlier? Today is Yuan Shuo Day, and it would be a bit desolate for General Qi to be alone."

Yi Ren put down the teacup, grabbed a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth, said vaguely: "Although Qi Ke has saved your life, I advise you not to trust him too much. Broke your big business?"

"Being friends with him is much better than making enemies." Rong Yan said slowly, "And I'm not advising you to go back because of Qi Ke—even though I don't want you to live in Prince Ji's Mansion, it doesn't mean that the Prince's Mansion is the right place. "
