Chapter 344: Poetry Gathering

Zhang Chengyuan raised her eyebrows and thought about the classic scene of her encounter with her second official partner.

As the poetry reading progressed, Princess Qinghe recited several ancient poems in succession, each of which amazed the audience and brought the atmosphere of the entire poetry reading to a climax.

And she undoubtedly became the focus of today's poetry reading.

Finally, the poetry reading came to an end with everyone still wanting more.

Princess Qinghe stood up and prepared to leave. Just as she reached the garden gate, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

The Princess of Qinghe County looked up and saw a young man in a moon-white brocade robe. He had a slender figure and a handsome face. Although he had the restraint unique to a bastard's son, his temperament was as gentle as jade. This man was none other than Liu Yichen, a bastard-born son of a famous family.

Liu Yichen bowed slightly, saluted, and said with a smile: "Qinghe County Lady, I am honored to listen to your excellent work today, which is really admirable.

Liu also has a slight fondness for poetry, I wonder if I can discuss this with the county lady?"

The Princess of Qinghe County looked at Liu Yichen in front of her, and her heart moved slightly. The man in front of her had a handsome appearance, extraordinary temperament, and elegant conversation. He was completely different from those children of aristocratic families who only knew how to flatter.

She chuckled and said, "Mr. Liu, you are too polite. If you are interested, we can talk about it in detail another day."

A trace of joy flashed across Liu Yichen's eyes, and he hurriedly said, "Then I will wait for good news from the county lady."

After saying this, he bowed again and watched Princess Qinghe leave.

Zhang Chengyuan watched the whole scene from a distance, a meaningful smile appeared on his face, and he said to Jiang Siyou beside him: "Let's go, let's go see Murong Xuan."

Jiang Si had no objection and nodded slightly, and the two left the poetry reading.

She took Jiang Siyou to an empty corner filled with miscellaneous items. The surroundings were quiet and silent, providing them with a perfect place to change clothes.

She took out two sets of grey tights that she had prepared in advance and handed one to Jiang Siyou: "Put on these, and let's go to the theater in a low-key manner."

Jiang Siyou looked at the clothes in his hands. Although he felt a little helpless, he still took it silently and put it on.

Then, she took out two exquisite masks and handed one to him. He still spoke: "There is no need for this in broad daylight."

Zhang Chengyuan disagreed, "It's necessary. We'll be more conspicuous if we go to the theater in broad daylight, but at least no one will know it's us."

As he spoke, he put on the mask skillfully, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. Jiang Siyou sighed inwardly, but his movements were not slow as he also put on the mask.

After everything was ready, Zhang Chengyuan exerted force with his arms and steadily picked up Jiang Siyou by the waist. The next second, he squatted slightly, his figure as fast as a swallow, and jumped lightly onto the roof.

She tapped her toes and flew quickly over the rooftops, creating a slight sound in the wind.

Jiang Siyou leaned in her arms, feeling the wind whistling past his ears. He looked up at her face, his hands unconsciously hugging her neck tightly.

Soon, they arrived on the roof of the Qinghe County Lord's house.

Zhang Chengyuan gently put Jiang Siyou down, supported him, and took him to sit on the roof. Then he took out a bowl of rice and handed it to him: "Eat something."

Then he took out one portion himself, and the two of them sat on the roof of someone else's house to eat openly.

After eating two bites, Jiang Siyou suddenly looked up at her and said, "You are so leisurely that you took me to eat on the roof of someone's house."

Zhang Chengyuan smiled embarrassedly after hearing this, but said quite complacently the next second: "There is no way I can do this. I just don't follow the beaten path. Eat quickly, do you miss this taste?" Jiang Si nodded, but he didn't have too much obsession with this aspect. As long as he was full and not hungry, it was fine.

After eating, the two looked around bored and soon saw Murong Xuan.

Murong Xuan was sitting under a corridor at this time, wearing a blue gown, his face as pale as paper, looking like a man staring at his wife, so broken that it was heartbreaking, but his eyes were full of indifference.

Zhang Chengyuan and Jiang Siyou looked at each other and continued to wait.

She looked at Murong Xuan and finally understood her original doubts. Murong Xuan did know the Princess of Qinghe County, but the Princess of Qinghe County did not know him. The last meeting was indeed an accident, but when he saw the Princess of Qinghe County later, he did it on purpose.

The reason for the hunt was because he wanted to get away from the assassin organization. He would not miss the chance and made a decision right away.

He stared at the entrance, patiently pretending.

Finally, there was a noise in the distance, and the Princess of Qinghe County slowly walked over, surrounded by a group of maids.

The Princess of Qinghe County seemed to be in a good mood, with a faint smile on her lips.

She walked straight to the corridor where Murong Xuan was. Seeing this, Murong Xuan immediately stood up and saluted.

The Princess of Qinghe County waved her hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite, and then said softly: "Today's poetry gathering has been a big hit, but I don't know what those people will say about me behind my back."

Murong Xuan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Why should the county lady care about what others say? With your talent, you should be above everyone else."

The Qinghe County Lady sighed softly: "That being said, people in this world always like to comment on others. By the way, how is your injury? Is it serious?"

Murong Xuan shook his head: "Thank you for your concern, it's nothing serious, I will recover in a few days."

The Princess of Qinghe County looked at the sick beauty with a face as pale as paper, and felt pity for her. She asked with concern, "Why don't you rest in the room? Your face is so pale, it really makes me sad."

Murong Xuan lowered his head shyly, and whispered in a voice that was clear enough for the Qinghe County Lady to hear: "Do you feel sorry for me?"

Princess Qinghe heard it clearly, but still exclaimed in disbelief. She didn't expect that he would say such ambiguous words after only knowing him for a few days. Although she always felt that the atmosphere when she was with him was a little different, and she also liked this handsome face, she didn't expect that he would have such thoughts about her.

The two people watching on the roof looked at each other and smiled silently. After all, they did not miss the way Murong Xuan's nose twitched and brows frowned when Princess Qinghe approached. It seemed that he smelled a scent that did not belong to him, and thought that Princess Qinghe had another ambiguous object, so he became anxious. It seemed that they would not be able to see the ambiguous pull.

Now, it’s just calculation and self-imagination.

Over there, Murong Xuan seemed to have just realized that he had spoken out of turn, and said in a panic, "Nothing, are you very happy today?"

Zhang Chengyuan raised an eyebrow at Jiang Siyou, her eyes conveying her thoughts: Look, the inquiries are coming.

The Princess of Qinghe County was still unaware and replied with a smile: "Well, I was the most popular person at the poetry gathering today, and I was praised and liked by many people."

"Is there anyone you like?"

Murong Xuan asked tentatively with a somewhat uneasy tone.

The eyes of Qinghe County Lady flashed. She wanted to test his feelings towards her, so she said, "I can't say I like him, but there is an interesting person."

Murong Xuan seemed to be in line with her expectations, and asked anxiously, "I wonder if it's a boy or a girl?"

There is still one update today. Good night, fellow readers.
