King's Landing [Rebirth]

Mei Zhenghan said whatever was on his mind, and didn't notice that his words were very flirtatious.If you want to hide others because they are good-looking, and do not show them to others, this is the inner possessiveness at work.It would be fine if the young couple were so casual when flirting. Mei Zhenghan was so straightforward with Liang Jian, making the atmosphere ambiguous.

Liang Jian was taken aback by what he said, thinking that she had heard wrong, she looked up at him and asked, "What did you say?"

Mei Zhenghan came back to his senses after a slow reaction, and realized the problem with his words, he blushed instantly, and quickly said: "It's nothing, it's really nothing, I..."

me what?Mei Zhenghan couldn't speak, he looked at Liang Jian in embarrassment, and was annoyed that he couldn't speak his mind, could he say such words to his elder brother?He scolded himself all over in his heart, and couldn't even find a reason to change the subject, so he could only perfunctorily say: "I'll go first."

He ran away without waiting for Liang Jian to speak, he was afraid that he would find a crack in the ground if he took a step too late.

Liang Jian didn't call him to stop, in fact Liang Jian stood there for quite a while, blushing belatedly.He raised his hand to cover the corner of his lips, feeling a rush of heat spreading from his neck all the way to his face.He looked like a boiled shrimp, red from head to toe.

Mei Zhenghan's run was basically to avoid Liang Jian, and he didn't show up until the dinner began.

The city lord hosted a banquet for not only the eight county officials, but also officials of all sizes in the city. As long as they were not on duty that night, they would all attend.Not only that, Liang Jian also sent an invitation to Yang Junning to invite her to join him.

Most people knew about Qianyumen's discord with the government before. Yang Junning did not expect that Liang Jian would take the initiative to win her over. Seeing that Liang Jian was different from Sun Sheng himself and Jiang Shengxue was on good terms, Yang Junning was very happy to take the invitation to enter that night. government.

The banquet is set in the inner courtyard, and there are two red candle lanterns hanging under the corridor of the main hall. The night is dark and dim, ethereal and clear.Song Yuan, who was in charge of the banquet, was so busy that he ordered his servants to move the tables and arrange the drinks.

Yang Junning came early, and it was very refreshing to see him directing everyone's busy work, so he went up to him and asked him when he even took care of such chores.

Song Yuan was busy and didn't have time to chat with Yang Junning, pointing to a bluestone path on the left side of the hall: "You go straight along this road, pass the Crescent Gate and turn left to Nanyuan, Jiang Shengxue is waiting for you there, you Don't come here to meddle."

Yang Junning gave a disdainful cut, stood aside for a while and saw that it was really boring, so he turned around and followed the path Song Yuan pointed to to find Jiang Shengxue.

The dinner was set at two o'clock in the Xu hour, and the officials did not dare to keep the city lord waiting, and came one after another just after the hour of Xu.The officials of all sizes in the city were empty-handed, and Song Yuan arranged them on the right side of the banquet.The front four seats on the right were empty, one was reserved by Song Yuan for himself, and the other three were Mei Zhenghan, Jiang Shengxue, and Yang Junning.

Knowing that Liang Jian also invited Yang Junning, these officials consciously stayed away from those four positions before Song Yuan gave a detailed introduction.Yang Junning is notorious in the government, and these officials would rather respect her than offend her.

Several county officials from outside all brought rich gifts, and some even brought their wives. Seeing Song Yuan, they immediately went forward to greet Song Yuan enthusiastically.Song Yuan played both sides, pretended to be crazy to these people's temptations, lured them into the lobby, and asked them to sit on the left side.

Officials arrived in Qi one after another, Song Yuan sent someone to invite Liang Jian, and sat down on the seat himself.

Mei Zhenghan, who had been hiding from Liang Jian all afternoon, appeared from some corner, sat beside Song Yuan, looked at him quietly, and asked him if he could change his seat.Song Yuan held up a glass of wine and was about to drink it, but Mei Zhenghan's hands trembled in fright and almost splashed him all over. He looked at Mei Zhenghan with a dejected face, raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you doing? Why don't you let me sit next to your brother? ?”

Mei Zhenghan scratched his head in distress and said, "I'm a little annoyed. I said something wrong this morning, so I dare not see him."

That remark was just an episode, maybe Liang Jian would forget it after hearing it, but Mei Zhenghan couldn't forget it. sentence.So intimate and ambiguous|ambiguous, and there is a bit of affection|human intimacy.

Mei Zhenghan has a good skin, and he loves beauties. When he was a child, he played around a lot, so he naturally knows how to tease people's hearts.But this time he really seduced the wrong person. He could say that he liked Liang Jian's appearance, and he felt happy when he looked at it all the time.But he didn't dare to say that his liking Liang Jian was another kind of liking, that would only make him feel that he was desecrating Liang Jian's feelings.

Song Yuan thought it was a big deal, but knew it was just a wrong thing, so he said disapprovingly, "Did Liang Jian get angry when you said the wrong thing?"

Mei Zhenghan shook his head, he slipped too fast, and didn't notice whether Liang Jian was angry or not.

Song Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "He's not angry at all, why are you bothered? He is so indulgent to you, even if you really say something that shouldn't be said, he will at most think you are naughty."

When Mei Zhenghan was pretending to be blind, Song Yuan could tell that Liang Jian loved this younger brother very much, so why did he say something wrong, he didn't take Mei Zhenghan's murder seriously.

Mei Zhenghan was mainly because he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. Hearing Song Yuan say this made him feel better. He picked up the glass in front of him and poured himself a full glass of wine, and drank it down. It was only under the stimulation of the wine that he stabilized his mind. .

The county officials had never seen Mei Zhenghan before, but they saw that Mei Zhenghan and Song Yuan were very close and they were sitting directly on the lower right, and they guessed Mei Zhenghan's identity with a little thought.They wanted to raise their glasses and come over for a chat, but seeing that Mei Zhenghan hadn't put on his crown yet, and was only seventeen or eighteen years old, they were worried that young people would not like to talk to them in an official tone, and they were afraid that they would not get off the stage if they didn't agree with each other, so they just nodded their heads in greeting.

At two o'clock in Xu time, the sound of silk and bamboo was played during the banquet, and Liang Jian brought Jiang Shengxue and Yang Junning over from the front yard.The two girls went straight to Mei Zhenghan and took a seat beside Mei Zhenghan, and Liang Jian took the first seat step by step.

All the county officials present looked at the young and vigorous city lord, and they only thought that he was unparalleled in handsomeness, and his appearance was like Pan'an.Although he looks young, he looks like he is only in his early twenties, but his demeanor should not be underestimated.The others sat down to be the chief, and everyone in the audience held their breath and concentrated.

Mei Zhenghan sat at the place closest to Liang Jian, and couldn't help but tempt | tempt to look up at him.Just in time, Liang Jian's eyes swept over to meet him, the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, and her peach blossom eyes were filled with a smile.

Mei Zhenghan quickly looked away, and Liang Jian was not annoyed when he saw it. He slightly restrained his smile, and signaled to the civil and military officials on stage that there is no need to be polite, and everyone can eat and drink as much as they want.

The officials in the city began to exchange glasses with each other without restraint. Those county officials who were still waiting for the city lord to speak could not help but feel uneasy when they saw that Liang Jian's words were concise and concise, and he didn't mention the job description or gift giving at all.The more normal Liang Jian behaved, the more uneasy they felt, and they didn't know what to eat.

Yang Junning was sitting next to Song Yuan, clinking glasses and chatting with Song Yuan, turned around and saw Liang Jian sitting alone at the top and no one dared to toast, guessing that the others were afraid of him, he raised his glass with a thought: "My lord, I toast you. "

Liang Jian toasted with her in the air and drank it down.

Yang Junning started, and then the officials below started toasting one by one, Liang Jian drank one by one, and even Jiang Shengxue had a drink with Liang Jian in the end.

Today's dinner can be regarded as Liang Jian's first banquet since he took office. It is not only the county magistrate coming to report on his work, but also celebrating his new official's appointment.

Seeing that the officials in the city were not limited by etiquette, the county officials gradually became bolder and began to toast Liang Jian in order.Mei Zhenghan watched Liang Jian drink one cup after another, sullenly poking the head of the fish in front of him with chopsticks, worried what would happen if Liang Jian got drunk.

"There is silk and bamboo music in the hall, but how can there be no beauty to accompany the dance. The official is willing to present a beauty to the city lord. She has a graceful figure, graceful posture, and exquisite dancing skills, as if she can dance in the palm of her hand."

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, all the county officials present began to be active.Seeing that Liang Jian hadn't spoken much all night, they expected that he would not mention the job report, so some people boldly stepped forward to present the beauty.

Seeing someone offering a dance, Liang Jian certainly would not refuse, he put down his wine glass, glanced at the county official, barely matched what Song Yuan said, and said with a smile: "Master Zhou has a heart, since he brought a beauty, Then please come up."

Seeing that Liang Jian recognized him, Zhou Cheng couldn't help being surprised, but he quickly adjusted his mood and patted his hands lightly.Following his applause, a young woman in dance clothes came in from the lobby.It's early winter now, the weather is cold, the thin clothes and gauze that this woman is wearing, it seems that she won't be cold.

The woman went to the hall and paid respects to Liang Jian, then raised her head to look at the city lord, her eyes lit up immediately.Liang Jian had a handsome face, leaning on the chair under her, dragging her head with one hand, with a half-smile on her face, and a pair of beautiful eyes that seemed to be able to attract people's souls.He has a relaxed expression and a lazy posture, wrapped in a black brocade, like a lazy black panther stretching its limbs comfortably, showing off its charm.

The woman was stunned, until Zhou Cheng coughed in embarrassment, and the man came back to his senses, blushing with a pretty face, lowered his head in trepidation, and pleaded softly: "I have offended you so much, please forgive me, the city lord." .”

"It doesn't matter. Master Zhou said that you can dance with your palm. I am very curious. No one here can lend you a palm. Why don't you dance to a drum?"

The woman is dressed in thin clothes and gauze, and has a pretty face. The cinnabar between the eyebrows is even more charming. Liang Jian knows that it is fake to make people dance with her toes.This group of people wanted to see his licentious side, so he was not polite at all, and put forward an even more absurd reason.I saw this kind of scene a lot in the previous life, and a few actions are enough to treat him like a playboy.

Zhou Cheng said that being able to palm dance was just an exaggeration, seeing that Liang Jian was serious, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask the woman to agree.Soon someone brought a big drum and placed it on the nave.

The woman took off her shoes and stepped on the drum with bare feet, raised her hand silently, and the surrounding music played again, and she danced coquettishly and lightly on the drum alone.The gauze dress on her body fluttered with her light and swallow-like steps, and her slender fingers were twisted like flowers, as light as a butterfly, like a swimming dragon.

People around applauded and applauded, but Liang Jian lacked interest.He was leaning on the seat, his eyes had already drifted towards Mei Zhenghan's direction, seeing that Mei Zhenghan didn't want to see the dancer, his cheeks puffed up in anger, and he immediately laughed.

Liang Jian smiled and everyone thought it was because he thought the girl danced well, and suddenly everyone had different thoughts. The county magistrate who brought the gift thought that after the dancer finished dancing, he would go forward to offer it, and followed Liang Jian for a while. Officials felt that it was rare, but they didn't make a fuss after thinking about it.Liang Jian is not a kid, so it's no big deal to see a girl.

At the end of the song, the dancer got off the drum barefoot and put on her shoes. Liang Jian ordered the drum to be removed and commented: "Not bad."

The short words just disappeared. The dancer and Zhou Chengju were taken aback for a moment, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Liang Jian's gourd.

Liang Jian had a panoramic view of these people's ugliness, and after teasing enough, she stroked her chin and thought for a while, "I'm here today, and you all have been here for a few days. I have nothing important to say, and you can leave tomorrow. Before you leave, don't forget to bring the generous gift I prepared for you. As for Xu Ze who hasn't arrived yet, if you meet me on the way back, let him come to see me as soon as possible."

Master Xu from Qingxi County still didn't catch up with the banquet, so he didn't know where he was now.

The county officials who came to report on their duties heard that you look at me and I look at you, but none of them understood what Liang Jian meant.But they didn't dare to ask, they were all curious about what the gift Liang Jian was talking about.

"I'm a bit tired from too much alcohol, please go ahead." Liang Jian got up and was about to leave the table, and the people present got up and saw them off.Liang Jian walked up to Mei Zhenghan and said softly, "Zhenghan, take me back."

Mei Zhenghan glanced at him angrily, seeing the blush on his face, she knew that he was really drunk, so she immediately restrained her temper and accompanied him to leave.
