The fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the Mid-Autumn Festival, was also the wedding day of the Commandery Prince of Fan Luo.
There were thirty tables in the Commandery Palace and twenty tables in the Luo Shui Manor.
Along the road from the Commandery Palace to the Luo Shui Manor, a banquet was held to entertain all the people of the commandery.
The entire commandery celebrated for three days and three nights.
"Phew!
So tiring.
Fortunately, this is the only time in my life, or else I wouldn't be able to bear it! "
After sending off the last wave of guests, Liang Enzai returned to the bridal chamber. He took off his wedding robe and looked at Yang Jingzhi, who was wolfing down the dishes on the table.
"Don't worry, if you want to experience it again, I'll fulfill your wish." Yang Jingzhi glared at the man, but her words were insincere.
"You alone is enough for me to bear, how would I dare to have more? I don't have the fortune to enjoy … Eh, no, no, your husband only has you in his heart. Other women, whether they are flat or round, have nothing to do with me!" When Liang Enzai saw Yang Jingzhi's gloomy face, he immediately hugged her and walked towards the bed in a fawning manner.
Alas, it was embarrassing to think that he, a Commandery Prince, the Master of Chivalry, had to settle his wife, whose temper wasn't too bad, through the bed …
… …
"Eh?
It's so late, why are there still people here?
Ah, it's Miss Jianyue. I'm sorry, I thought everyone had left and was about to lock the door. "The two servant girls in charge of inspecting the courtyard were surprised to see a figure standing up from the corner.
"It's fine, I'll leave now." Jianyue picked up the wine jar by her hand.
Her steps were a bit unsteady.
"Miss Jianyue, do you need me to call a carriage to take you back?" Seeing Jianyue's gait, the servant girls guessed that she was drunk.
They kindly offered.
"No need." Jianyue shook her head.
She was clearly a bit drunk.
It wasn't so bad that she couldn't walk to her residence in Qingtian Courtyard.
Looking at the swaying figure getting further and further away, the two little maids looked at each other worriedly and helplessly turned back to the banquet venue.
Last Mid-Autumn Festival, at the wedding of Jian Heng and Xin Lan, there were several other single women like her who were troubled by love.
This year, on the Dragon Boat Festival, after Jiang Yingyun's wedding banquet, Yang Jingzhi accompanied her to drink to their hearts' content. But now, on the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion night, after the grand wedding banquet, she was the only one left, eating the loneliness of fifteen years to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
As he walked, he didn't notice the small pebble in front of him and sprained his ankle, almost tripping.
"Be careful!" A shadow caught her falling body.
Jianyue raised her misty eyes and stared at the person who came.
Did she see wrongly?
How could it be him?
Wasn't he out on a mission?
I didn't see him at the wedding banquet either. Could it be that I got the wrong person?
She reached out and caressed his chiseled face. "Heh … you really look alike!"
"You're drunk."
Louis Stu frowned and helped her up, letting her center of gravity lean on him, and brought her to Qingtian Courtyard.
"Drunk?
Well, if I'm not drunk, how could I see you?
You don't exist … "
Louis Stu raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean by I don't exist?"
He had been rushing to move the Fengyao Pavilion back to Fanluo Prefecture as soon as possible so that he could start afresh with her. This woman actually ignored him.
"Heh … you don't exist … it means … I want to forget you … as if … I've never met you … never …" Jianyue murmured the decision in her heart in a low voice, then leaned her head and fell asleep soundly on him.
Si Tuo sighed softly and picked her up horizontally. With a few leaps, he sent her to her residence.
He gently placed her on the bed and covered her with the blanket. He leaned over and captured her red lips that were stained with the scent of wine. He kissed her until she moaned and his lower abdomen tightened. Only then did he release her. "Don't, don't forget me." He firmly warned her in her ear.
… …
When she woke up the next day, before she had time to figure out how she got home last night, she heard a loud knock on the courtyard door.
Jianyue held her heavy head that was aching from the drunken stupor and opened the door.
"Jianyue?
Are you sick? "Su Shuiche looked at Jianyue's pale face and frowned eyebrows. She went forward to support her in surprise.
"No, I'm not.
Maybe I drank too much. "Jianyue shook her head." Madam, is something the matter? "She had never seen Su Shuiche come here to find her. Even if there was something, it would be through Xinzhi.
It was not that she looked down on her, but she knew that the Madam was too busy.
"I wanted to ask you to go into the city with me.
As you know, Ah Yao is worried about me going out of He Garden alone, but he has something to do. Yun 'er has gone to Huan Sha City in the past few days. After thinking about it, I can only trouble you. "
"It's nothing." She was originally a guard.
Xue Li had her stay in the "He Garden" out of consideration for her safety and protection.
Although he and the mother of the nation rarely stayed here.
However, she was now a bodyguard of the "He Garden". She had not forgotten her duty at all.
Even today, she had never been a guard like this before.
Perhaps it was like the Madam said, Situ Yun was not here, so she could not find anyone else suitable.
"Jianyue, do you know that Louis Stu is back?"
Along the way, only the rumbling of the carriage could be heard. It was not until they left He Garden that Su Shuiche spoke to break the silence.
He's back?
Then was that shadow last night really him?
Was he the one who sent her home?
"He's back, it has nothing to do with me." Taking a deep breath, Jianyue pretended to be indifferent as she spoke.
"I know it has nothing to do with you, we're just chatting."
Su Shuiche smiled sweetly as she continued, "Fengyao Pavilion moved to Fanluo Prefecture, and today they're going to make a big sacrifice. Louis Stu doesn't understand these things, so he can only let me do it. Don't you think it's funny? How would I understand these things …" Su Shuiche observed Jianyue's expression as she spoke.
Sigh, what's going on these days? Why are they all looking for me to act as an intermediary?
Could it be that I'm actually very good at being a matchmaker?
"It's very funny." Jianyue moved her lips as she replied expressionlessly.
But her heart was already surging with emotions.
He moved Fengyao Pavilion to Fanluo Prefecture?
Is it for me?
Oh … I'm thinking too much. Jianyue, what does it have to do with me whether he comes here or not?
Didn't you say you've decided to let him go?
I'll just treat him as a stranger.
Twenty-eight years old, an age that most men would be intimidated by. She didn't think he would value her that much.
It was already a luxury for him to allow her to stay by his side without a proper status. How could she imagine that he moved so extensively for her sake?!
In Fanluo Prefecture, two doors away from the Prefecture Palace, the original Lu Residence was now under a new owner.
"Fengyao Pavilion", these three words were forcefully engraved above the vermilion gate.
Once you entered the gate, you would see three large courtyards, which were now the gathering place of the 30 leaders of Fengyao Pavilion. There were also four independent courtyards outside, which were the rest areas set up by the four divisions.
The other three hundred or so Fengyao Pavilion citizens were scattered in various major cities of the Dahui. They were divided into groups of thirty people, and they occupied all the escort, escort, and bodyguard jobs in the ten or so major cities.
After the restructuring, Fengyao Pavilion had become a new escort organization.
Fengyao Pavilion would take care of all kinds of manpower and material matters.
As for the job of killing people, it was up to the Pavilion Master to decide whether to accept it or not.
Even if it was accepted, it would be the people from Fengyao Pavilion's headquarters that would take care of it.
The other cities would only accept escort jobs.
"You're here?
Come in. "Si Chong, who had come to congratulate them on their move, smiled and invited Su Shuiche and Jianyue in.
Putting down the congratulatory gifts in her hands, Su Shuiche helped the cook prepare the items for the ceremony. "By the way, Jianyue, can you help me get the wine cups from the kitchen?" She pointed to the small path on the left outside the main hall.
Jianyue nodded and walked out of the main hall expressionlessly.
When the cook saw Jianyue walk in the opposite direction from the kitchen, she turned to Su Shuiche, dumbfounded. "Madam, aren't the wine cups here?
Also, the kitchen isn't in that position … "She clearly remembered that the madam had been to the kitchen, so how could she point in the wrong direction?
Su Shuiche blinked at the cook. "I forgot." She did it on purpose.
Jianyue followed the small path that Su Shuiche pointed to and walked forward in a daze. When she reached the end, an exquisite and elegant small courtyard appeared in front of her. The courtyard was full of chrysanthemums, just like the first time she met him.
Only then did she realize that she was looking for the kitchen to get the wine cups.
"What are you doing standing here?"
A deep voice came from behind her. Louis Stu was leaning against an old locust tree not far behind her with his arms crossed. He stared at her with a smile that wasn't a smile.
Jianyue bit her lip and pretended to be indifferent. "I'm looking for the kitchen to get the wine cups."
"The kitchen is on the other side. This is my courtyard." Louis Stu explained indifferently.
Jianyue raised her eyebrows. She didn't know if the madam pointed in the wrong direction or if she did it on purpose.
Once she thought that she might be purposely creating an opportunity for her, she felt a burst of irritation.
"I came back yesterday.
The moment I came back, I picked up a little drunkard. "Louis Stu said expressionlessly, but there was a faint smile in his eyes. It revealed that he was in a very good mood.
Jianyue heard this and suddenly opened her eyes wide. She stared at him in a daze. The little drunkard he was talking about, could it be that he was referring to her?
Oh ….. God!
Was he really the one who sent her back last night?
And he even hugged her ….. Once she thought of the scene of him hugging her, her cheeks couldn't help turning red.
"Since the kitchen isn't here ….. Sorry ….. for disturbing you." She closed her eyes and walked around him. She wanted to go back the way she came.
Louis Stu easily pulled her into his embrace.
Even with her high level of skills, she had no power to resist in front of him.
"I thought you knew." He sighed softly.
Knew?
Knew what?
Jianyue struggled out of his embrace, but she still couldn't break free from his strong arms. She was tightly held in his embrace.
"These past few years, I've been busy with Fengyao Pavilion's matters. I know that you have orders to protect 'He Garden' and can't leave here, so I wanted to quickly settle the matters in the pavilion and come back."
It wasn't easy for the Fengyao Pavilion to be completely white and spread out to the various cities to set up escort agencies. It also had to be accepted by the merchants and commoners.
"You ….. came back, was it because of big brother and the Emperor's son's persuasion?" She asked the question in her heart.
"Their suggestion only accelerated my decision." Louis Stu lightly smiled as he stroked her beautiful little face.
She was the same age as him and was already twenty eight years old.
What kind of woman was like her, not caring about her age and not caring about other people talking about her. Perhaps, it wasn't that she didn't care, but she didn't care about her age, but him.
"Jianyue, if we get married at the end of the year, will you have enough time to prepare?" He asked in a gentle voice.
This was the first time that Louis Stu found that he could have such a gentle moment.
He used to laugh at Si Ling because he hadn't found her yet.
"You're saying, me ….. and you?" Her black eyes widened as she looked up at him in disbelief.
"Otherwise?
Who do you want to marry? "He slowly smiled, like a garden full of chrysanthemums blooming.
She thought that she would never drown her sorrows in alcohol again at any of the following banquets …
