For several days, Pei Liang didn't see Yaoniang. He was in the library during the day, and Yaoniang didn't go either. He left early and came back late every day, so it was no wonder that he didn't see anyone.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, a very grand festival.
Pei Liang returned to his residence early in the afternoon and happened to meet Yaoniang watering the flowers in the courtyard.
"Why did you come back so early today?"
"Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you don't want to go out for a walk, I will accompany you."
"Okay, Pei Liang, you are serious, I thought you had forgotten about it."
With a surprised look on her face, Yaoniang quickly put down the kettle and went back to the house to clean up.
It was impossible for this woman to go out without dressing up for a few hours, so Pei Liang simply walked around alone.
When we came to the lake, the sparkling waves were a bit dazzling.
Pei Liang walked half way around the lake and met Lu Qingyan who was walking alone.
The two looked at each other and smiled in unison.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I asked Xiaowan to give two boxes of moon cakes and peach cakes to Brother Pei and Miss Yaoniang. I wonder if Brother Pei has tasted them?"
Lu Qingyan's speech was still as gentle and gentle as ever.
Pei Liang pointed in the direction of the rockery: "I have been reading in the library these days, and I haven't had time to eat it yet."
Lu Qingyan nodded: "I heard that although Brother Pei is a martial arts practitioner and has an extraordinary physique, he still has to be careful about his health when he reads like this day and night."
"Thank you, Miss Lu, for reminding me. I will pay attention."
After Pei Liang finished speaking, he invited Lu Qingyan to go with him.
Lu Qingyan straightened her hair that was blown by the wind and agreed happily.
"Uncle Fang has also chatted with me about your father's past in the past few days. I feel that Master Lu is also having a hard time and has been preparing for a rainy day."
"Being an official in the court is like walking on thin ice. What's more, when you reach his position, surrounded by enemies, you have to be cautious and cautious at every step."
“I don’t know how long this delicate relationship will last.”
"Well, I can only do my best and obey fate."
Lu Qingyan nodded sadly.

"Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you don't want to go out for a walk, I will accompany you."
"Okay, Pei Liang, you are serious, I thought you had forgotten about it."
"Let's set off at the time of You, and I will come find you then."
"Okay, let me clean it up quickly"
With a surprised look on her face, Yaoniang quickly put down the kettle and ran back to the house.
It was impossible for this woman to go out without dressing up for a few hours, so Pei Liang simply walked around alone.
Although the Prime Minister's Mansion was large, there were many places that Pei Liang was unfamiliar with. After wandering around, he came to the lake again. The sun was shining brightly at the moment, and the sparkling waves were a bit dazzling.
Pei Liang walked half a circle around the lake and met Lu Qingyan who was walking alone.
The two looked at each other and smiled in unison.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I asked Xiaowan to give two boxes of moon cakes and peach cakes to Brother Pei and Miss Yaoniang. I wonder if Brother Pei has tasted them?"

"Thank you, Miss Lu, for reminding me. I will pay attention."
After Pei Liang finished speaking, he invited Lu Qingyan to walk by the lake together.
Lu Qingyan straightened her hair that was blown by the wind and agreed happily.
"Uncle Fang and I have talked about some of your father's past in the past few days. I feel that Mr. Lu is also having a hard time and has been preparing for a rainy day."
"Being an official in the court is like walking on thin ice. What's more, when you reach his position, surrounded by enemies, you have to be cautious and cautious at every step."
"Yes, it is most difficult to guard against hidden arrows in temples."
"Brother Pei and Miss Yaoniang were also involved. Qing Yan is really ashamed and regretful."
"This has nothing to do with Miss Lu, and it has nothing to do with the Lu family. What is supposed to come will come, and you can't avoid it."
"Brother Pei, just stay here with peace of mind, they don't dare to make any mistakes."
“I just don’t know how long this delicate balance will last.”
"Well, I can only do my best and obey fate."
Lu Qingyan nodded sadly.
Lu Qin and Uncle Fang in the distance looked at each other and felt pity secretly. The two people walking together gave people a very close aura and feeling. The man's figure was tall and straight, like a beautiful tree in the wind, and the woman's figure was like a beautiful tree in the wind. Gentle as jade, as quiet as a virgin, they are simply a couple made in heaven.
"Yan'er's vision is really high!"
Lu Qin pondered for a long time, then sighed slightly.
"Miss Hui Xinlan has been very kind since she was a child. How can the young man she likes be an ordinary person!" Fang Bo smiled.
"Yan'er will eventually fall in love with a Jianghu man, which is really something I didn't expect."
"This is not surprising. Miss usually likes to read novels about heroes with different personalities. Coupled with the character of being soft on the outside and strong on the inside, this kind of young hero with outstanding temperament is the most suitable for Miss."
"It was a mistake when I married her to that beast Liu Jinyan. Alas, I regret not listening to what you said."
"Master, you must not blame yourself. There was nothing we could do about it at the time. It's just that we all underestimated that old fox Chu Fengyan."
"I will never make the mistakes of the past again. Is there any news from Liu Jinyan?"
"The situation in Chengdu is not very optimistic. The forward troops of the alien race have been stationed in Longteng Gorge. As long as they join forces with Lin'an's troops, they are expected to capture Chengdu soon, and then he will die."
"Well, as long as he dares to escape, he must be intercepted and killed on the way."
"I will take action myself if necessary"
"If our Yan'er can be entrusted to this young man, my biggest wish will be fulfilled. We two old bones will die without regrets at the foot of the spring."
“Who says it’s not?”
...
"Brother Pei, there is a moon appreciation party in the house tonight. You and Yaoniang must come."
"Sorry Miss Lu, I promised Yaoniang to take her out for a walk. There must be many interesting places in this big Yujing City."
"That's right. You guys have been here for so long. It's time to go out and relax." Lu Qingyan thought for a while and then said: "Then I will go back later and draw a map for you. It will mark the number of people you will go to tonight." A place worth visiting.”
"That's great, then I'll trouble Miss Lu."
"The moon is above the willow branches, and the date is after dusk. Brother Pei is quite romantic!"
Lu Qingyan seemed to be making fun of Pei Liang for the first time. As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing.
"Make Qing Yan laugh."
Pei Liang touched his nose. This was also the first time that he omitted Lu Qingyan's surname in his address. It seemed that the relationship between the two was much closer.
"Brother Pei, it's time to get busy. Qing Yan has to leave."
As soon as Lu Qingyan finished speaking, she turned around quickly. Fortunately, she didn't let Pei Liang see her blushing face.
Pei Liang went back to the courtyard and knocked on Yaoniang's door. The radiant Yaoniang was as beautiful as a fairy walking out of a painting.
“What a pity”
Pei Liang shook his head and sighed.
“If you have something to say, say it, if you have something to say, let it go.”
Yaoniang sat in front of the bronze mirror, picked up a piece of red paper, placed it between her lips, and wiped it gently.
"It's a pity that such a beautiful face has to wear a mask, tsk tsk!"
The young man was somewhat gloating about his misfortune.
Sure enough, a moment later, Yaoniang's angry roar came from the room:
"Smelly Pei Liang, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
….
"What good things did Xiao Wan give you?"
Yaoniang couldn't wait to ask as soon as she walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"I asked her to draw a map of Yujing City for us, so I can have a good time with you tonight!"
Pei Liang took out the map and showed it to Yaoniang.
Yaoniang looked at it for a few times and then stuffed it back into Pei Liang's arms.
"Just tell me what Lu Qingyan painted. I'm not that stingy."
Yaoniang snorted coldly.
"Awesome, how did you see that?"
"The handwriting on this painting is so handsome and elegant. It's strange that Xiao Wan has this ability."
"Miss Yaoniang is really attentive and can predict things like a god."
Faced with Pei Liang's flattery skills, Yaoniang didn't accept this trick at all:
"Stop talking useless words, call your aunt first and let me listen!"
"Auntie"
“So simple”
"I'm still impressed by your magnanimity."
"Pei, you are becoming more and more glib, annoying."
The two came to the street, which was full of pedestrians and traffic, and the sounds of small businessmen and hawkers on both sides kept coming and going.
The long-lost lively atmosphere of the market makes people forget their worries and troubles in an instant.
Wearing a mask, Yaoniang always feels awkward, as if the face is not her own.
Pei Liang advised: "Don't think about the mask, just let it go and play."
Yaoniang asked while wandering, "Where is the first stop?"
Pei Liang had already memorized the map in his mind and said with a smile, "I'll take you to the Little Confucius Temple. There are all kinds of snacks and sideshows there."
———
August 15th, the world is reunited.
A thin girl was carrying a guqin on her back, following closely behind an old man in civilian clothes, walking on the palace corridor, with a bright full moon hanging outside the corridor.
The girl with a yellow face and muscles secretly glanced at the moon in the sky, her eyes wide open with longing.
Suddenly, the person in front stopped suddenly, and the girl bumped into the old man's back.
"You little bastard, if you dare to act recklessly again, I'll beat you to death!"
The old man with a horse face turned around with a fierce expression and lowered his voice.
Even so, the fat eunuch in charge heard him and snorted angrily: "Do you understand the rules? Do you want to live?"
The horse-faced old man immediately put on a servile smile: "My lord, forgive me, but this kid comes from the mountains and has never seen the world. I will definitely discipline him well and he will never make any mistakes!"
"Let's go"
The fat eunuch just wanted to scare him, so he waved his hand impatiently and walked up the stairs.
Outside Hanshou Palace, the fat eunuch placed the old man and the young boy at the entrance of the palace.
"Let's go in and report to the Queen. You two listen carefully and wait until your names are announced before you go in. Behave well."
"Don't worry, Grand Eunuch, this child can play the piano to perfection and will definitely satisfy the Queen."
"Talkful and cunning people"
The fat father-in-law cursed, turned around and walked in.
The old man broke out in a cold sweat. He bent down for a long time before he dared to straighten up and wipe it off.
Looking at the girl who had lowered her head and said nothing, the old man forced a smile on his slender face.
"Xiaotang, don't be nervous when you go in. Just show your best piano skills to the imperial concubine. If the imperial concubine is happy and gives you any reward, you must accept it. Grandpa will teach you along the way. I must remember what I said to you, do you understand?"
The girl nodded silently and lowered her hands, looking cautious.
The horse-faced old man stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction. This money-losing thing he picked up on the way could finally bring him some good luck. In the past few years, eating from him, drinking from him, and living in his house were not all free money. How much money can this girl make by performing in a teahouse?
"Grandpa and I have been dependent on each other for so many years. This is the first time we meet a noble man. You have to seize the opportunity. Although grandpa is usually a little harsh on you, it is all for your own good. Now that you have mastered this craft, you will become famous in the future. But you must repay grandpa well!"
The old man was still chattering endlessly, but the fat father-in-law’s voice was already heard in the palace.
"Xuanmin's female harpist He Xiaotang came to the palace to see her."
Under the old man's urging, the girl turned around and looked at the moon in the sky again!
The moonlight is very long, reaching my hometown.
