After dinner, Su Wan and Sun Ling'er sent Jiacheng to the carriage and watched her leave before going back.
Before leaving, Jiacheng also said that someone would bring the gems to Sun Ling'er tomorrow.
Sun Ling'er even said no, but she had to say that she was a sister, and she had to have what Su Wan had. This sweet burden made Sun Ling'er dizzy.
During the day, after Jiang Yu talked with his brothers, everyone seemed to be less resistant to him seeing Su Wan alone.
Therefore, he made a special trip to see Su Wan before going back.
"Happy birthday, do you like the gift I gave you?" Before Jiang Yu left, he came specifically to say happy birthday to her.
Just the two of them.
Su Wan nodded vigorously, took his hand into the room and asked him to sit down. She took care of the Fengqiuhuang.
But now she was going to take it out and play a piece for him herself.
It was such a big box, so Jiang Yu was afraid that she would struggle, so he stood up to help her, stood behind her, hugged her from behind, and sprayed his warm breath on her ears.
"Don't move, I'll take it out for you."
He really wanted to tease him every chance he got, and Su Wan really cried to death.
Su Wan slipped out from under his arm and waited for him to take Feng Qiuhuang out and place it on the table where she had always placed it.
But that one was temporarily placed in another place as before.
"It is indeed a masterpiece. It has been passed down for generations. It is so exquisite. I am even afraid of accidentally breaking it."
"It's okay. If it's broken, just find someone to fix it."
Jiang Yu's tone was casual, as if the Feng Qiuhuang was not an antique, but just an ordinary musical instrument.
"That's not okay. This is something your mother left you, right? Since it was your mother's gift to you, I have to take good care of it."
Su Wan gently stroked the patterns on it, but what she said made Jiang Yu stunned.
"How do you know it was left by my mother?" Jiang Yu remembered that he didn't seem to have said that it was left by his mother.
Then how did Wan Wan know?
When Su Wan heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Why did she know that? Of course it was because she had read the original work. This Feng Qiuhuang appeared in the later period. It was mentioned that it was left behind by Jiang Yu's mother.
"I guess, isn't it possible?" She could only fool around like this.
Jiang Yu frowned, but in the end he didn't continue to ask. That's all. He once said that no matter what she did or said, he would not question her, even though she had her own little secret.
"Yes, of course."
"What song do you want to hear? I can play it for you?" Su Wan said while adjusting Feng Qiuhuang's timbre.
Nowadays, she can be regarded as a master master. She is no longer the novice she was before, who couldn't even adjust the tone.
Seeing her skillful appearance, Jiang Yu smiled fondly.
"I want to hear the phoenix begging for the phoenix."
Jiang Yu was interested in this piece, after all, he taught it himself.
Su Wan also guessed it, so he nodded in agreement.
Jiang Yu moved a stool and sat next to her, quietly listening to her playing the piano.
This Fengqiuhuang is indeed a masterpiece, impeccable in every aspect. The top-notch sound coupled with the moving melody makes people indulge in it unconsciously.
Jiang Yu was standing next to her, holding his chin with his hand and watching her intently, becoming more and more fascinated as he watched.
To be honest, before he met Su Wan, he never thought that he would be so obsessed with a woman in his life.
After the song ended, Su Wan saw that Jiang Yu was still in a daze, and took the initiative to kiss him on the lips.
When Jiang Yu reacted, she had already left his lips. Almost subconsciously, he reached out and grabbed her arm, brought her over, sat her on his lap, held her and gave her a lingering kiss. Just left.
…
The next morning, someone suddenly came to the palace.
It was the eunuch beside the emperor, Eunuch Lu, who came with his people.
Su Jing brought her whole family out to meet him.
He is the eunuch beside the emperor, and when he comes to the Su Mansion, he has instructions from the emperor, so he naturally does not dare to neglect them.
"Shilang Su, the emperor has a decree to announce that the fifth young master of the Su family will come to the palace to meet the saint. The emperor also specifically told me whether the wedding banquet plan of the fifth young master has been completed. If it has been completed, please bring the wedding banquet plan with the fifth young master to the interview. Holy.”
Hearing the news, the Su family was all pleasantly surprised.
Except for Su's mother, she thought that the Holy Father had done something wrong by suddenly summoning Lao Wu, or that the painting he painted violated taboos or something.
In short, it is easy for the elderly to think too much.
But everyone else knew that Su Yi's opportunity had come. The Holy Emperor must have heard about Su Yi's talent, so he summoned him to the palace and specifically asked him to bring a wedding banquet picture.
Su Jing couldn't help but smile, turned to look at Su Yi and asked:
"Lao Wu, have you finished drawing the wedding banquet?"
Su Yi seemed to be stunned by this sudden surprise, and stayed there at a loss for a while.
It was Su Wan who pulled his sleeve to indicate that his elder brother was asking a question.
Only then did Su Yi react and quickly replied:
"It's already painted and ready to go at any time."
"In that case, please ask the fifth young master to take a bath and change his clothes, then bring the wedding banquet picture with us into the palace to meet the saint!"
Eunuch Lu had a high-pitched voice and a smile on his face.
It is also a rule to bathe and change clothes before holy ceremony. The majesty of the emperor cannot be despised. Ministers must take a bath in advance when they go to court every day. Su Yi, an ordinary citizen, is no exception.
"Please, Eunuch Lu, please go to the side hall to drink some tea and have some snacks later." Su Jing took the person to the side hall very politely.
Su Yi went to bathe and change clothes. Su's mother prepared a set of light blue robes for him, which were new from head to toe.
Su Wan is really excited, because if nothing goes wrong this time, Fifth Brother will become famous in one battle. In the circle of Confucian scholars in Kyoto, his name will soon appear and he will have a place.
I am so happy that Fifth Brother has finally waited for this day.
In the side hall, Shen Qingli held a heavy money bag and stuffed it directly into Eunuch Lu.
"Eunuch Lu, thank you for your hard work on this trip. This is a little tea money. Please accept it."
It's not Shen Qingli's influence, but this is the rule. Eunuch Lu is a popular person around the emperor. He still has to pay for the hard work of traveling all the way.
Moreover, giving appropriate benefits is also a way. Many officials rely on contacting these eloquent eunuchs in the palace to obtain the emperor's happiness and anger and avoid stepping on minefields.
These eunuchs are also human beings. If someone gives it to them, they will take it.
So, he naturally took the money bag Shen Qingli gave him, which contained at least a hundred taels.
"Then our family would like to thank Madam Su for the reward."
"I also asked my father-in-law to come to the palace and help take care of my brother-in-law. I'm sorry for bothering you."
Shen Qingli took the opportunity to make this request. Needless to say, she had only been married for two days and she already had the air of being the matron of the house.
Soon, Su Yi had finished bathing and changing clothes. He packed up the wedding banquet picture he had just completed in a box and set off with Eunuch Lu.
