Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"Since my uncle has arranged it like this, then Cheng Yin just obeys his orders." Xiang Nan nodded.

Zhao Jingyu is a master who has breasts and is mother, which also means that he will not be loyal to anyone. As long as he is given enough benefits, he can betray anyone.

This also means that the high minister cannot completely control him. As long as there are enough benefits, he may betray at any time. It is not a bad thing for Xiang Nan to have such a young man lurking in the high minister's camp.

Although such a person is shameless and unscrupulous, he is indeed a useful dog. After he ascends the throne in the future, he will need a villain to help him eradicate dissidents, attract hatred, and do things he wants to do but cannot do himself.

Just like Qin Hui before Gaozong and Yan Song before Jiajing, they were both black gloves who helped the emperor do dirty things.

Seeing Xiang Nan agree, Gao Ming suddenly laughed with satisfaction.

…

A few days later, the annual garden party of Qinxiang Garden was held.

Xiang Nan specially invited Zhao Sese to come with him.

Zhao Sese was naturally very happy to receive Xiang Nan's invitation and specially dressed up to attend.

"Your Highness~" She looked at Xiang Nandao shyly.

"Yes, this dress suits you very well." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.

Zhao Sese was a beauty, and she became even more beautiful after dressing up.

"As long as Sese doesn't embarrass His Highness," Zhao Sese said modestly.

"How can it be embarrassing? When it comes to beauty, if Miss Zhao is ranked second in Shangjing City, no one dares to be ranked first." Xiang Nan waved his hands and smiled, "It is an honor to have you by my side."

"Compared with the Nine Princesses of Xizhou, which one is more beautiful?" Zhao Sese asked with a smile after hearing this.

"She is the number one in Xizhou, and you are the number one in Beijing. Chunlan, Qiuju, each is good at winning." Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Why do we have to distinguish ourselves?"

Zhao Sese nodded thoughtfully, and then went to Qinxiang Garden with Xiang Nan.

After arriving there, I saw Li Chengwen, Li Chengyuan, Li Chengye, Li Min and others also arriving one after another.

Although the brothers were almost at each other's throats as they competed for the position of prince, on the surface they were still in a happy mood, and they looked like brothers and sisters respectful to each other.

"Spring is beautiful today and the garden is full of fragrance. Why don't we play 'Qu Shui Shang'." Li Chengye suggested with a smile.

The so-called meandering water drinking cup means taking a seat by the gurgling water and writing poems when it is their turn. If you fail to do it or do it illegally, you will be punished.

Since ancient times, it has been the most popular among literati.

"Okay, second brother." Li Chengwen responded happily. He usually loves to write and write.

At this moment, I heard someone laugh and say, "Second brother, fifth brother~ Dear poetry immortals, are you lacking someone?"

Xiang Nan looked back and saw Yongning, Luo Xi and Qu Xiaofeng coming together.

Qu Xiaofeng was also looking at Xiang Nan, and when they looked at him, her pretty face turned red and she looked happy.

He was about to step forward to say hello, but his eyes suddenly glanced at Zhao Sese standing next to him, and the smile immediately froze on his face.

It turns out that the reason why he stopped coming to see me these days was because he had found someone new.

Qu Xiaofeng's mood seemed to hit rock bottom instantly.

…

"You came just in time, now we are all here." Li Chengye said with a smile.

"Ninth Princess has just come to Fengchao, can she write poetry?" Zhao Sese asked.

She noticed the inexplicable affection between Qu Xiaofeng and Xiang Nan, and felt a little sad in her heart.

"You're the only one who can't do it?" Yong Ning rolled his eyelids and said angrily when he saw what she said.

"It doesn't matter. We will follow the rules. You can follow your own mood and make up the rhyme." Li Chengye said.

"Yes, yes, yes, you see what the second brother said, you can play with us." Yongning encouraged with a smile, "If you really can't do it, let the second brother take the punishment for you."

Qu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, but subconsciously looked at Xiang Nan.

If someone was punished on her behalf, she hoped that person would be Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan sighed, then said with a smile, "Don't worry, the ninth princess is a guest from afar, we will let you."

"Is it just because I'm a guest?" Qu Xiaofeng murmured in frustration.

Then everyone took their seats one by one.

"Let's set a topic. In the first round, the top question is scenery and weather, and the bottom question is plants and animals." Xiang Nan added.

Everyone nodded.

Afterwards, the meandering water drinking ceremony officially began.

Xiang Nan first poured a glass of wine and drank it, and then said loudly, "The late rain has begun to subside and it has become sunny~"

Then place the jug on the tray and let it gurgling down the water.

The next person was Zhao Sese. She hooked the tray with a jade hook, took off the jug, poured a glass of wine, and chanted, "Buy a boat to visit the old Furong City~"

After chanting, she covered her face with her wide sleeves and drank the wine in one gulp.

Then it was the turn of the third prince Li Chengwen. He thought for a moment and then chanted, "The high sail hangs diagonally in the color of the sunset~"

"You can't hear the sound of pelicans when you're in a hurry~" Luo Xi then chanted.

"Crossing the water and climbing over the mountains~" Li Min chanted along.

"The koi fish in the cabinet are fighting for each other." Princess Yongning chanted.

"A country never grows old with others~" Li Chengye chanted.

Finally, it was Qu Xiaofeng's turn. She was stunned for a moment, then scratched her head, thought hard, and finally said, "Mr. Fortune Teller... you are making random comments~"

Seeing such illegal and unorganized verses, everyone present laughed.

"Did I say something wrong?" When Qu Xiaofeng saw it, he immediately scratched his head in embarrassment, "It's okay, I'll punish myself with a drink."

After that, he punished himself with a drink.

…

"The Ninth Princess is indeed generous." Li Chengye smiled and said, "Fifth brother, what is the topic for the next round?"

"This round, we don't distinguish between upper and lower. Every sentence contains a 'double' or a 'right' thing." Xiang Nan suggested.

When everyone heard this, they nodded.

Xiang Nan started again, "Stop before the fireworks scenery~"

"Banyanlou is still said to be here." Zhao Sese chanted.

"Mandarin ducks are willing to forget the meaning of March." Li Chengwen chanted.

"Children each take half of their lives to worry about~" Luo Xi chanted.

"It's hard to dance again when Tuo Yin is scattered~" Li Yin chanted.

"The lotus flowers are blooming and waiting to be bowed together~" Yongning chanted.

"..." Li Chengye was about to recite.

At this moment, Qu Xiaofeng got out of order and rushed to say, "It's not that enemies don't get together~"

Li Chengye was stunned, and everyone laughed.

"Ah, did I say something wrong again?" Qu Xiaofeng suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Enemies never get together" was the line of poetry she remembered most, and it just echoed the theme, so she said it right away.

She completely forgot that it wasn't her turn yet, it was Li Chengye's turn to speak.

"Yes, yes, this sentence means a lot." Yongning said with a smile.

Li Chengye sighed, "Okay, let's stop here today. Don't waste time here. Let's all go play."

Immediately, he stood up and left first.

"Luoxi, Yongning, am I embarrassed again?" Qu Xiaofeng said embarrassedly.

"It doesn't matter, this is just a game." Yongning waved his hand and reassured her.

"Yes, when Yongning first learned to compose poetry, he was punished so many times." Luo Xi also consoled him.

"These seven rhymes are indeed difficult to learn. When I was six years old and studying poetry, it took me a full month to learn it. The ninth princess just came to the Toyo Dynasty. After a long time, I have been influenced by my ears and eyes, and I will naturally learn it." Zhao Sese stepped forward. road.

It seemed to be a way of comforting Qu Xiaofeng, but in fact it was a bit of a show off.
