Chapter 76
After the competition, men and women sit in separate seats at the banquet, with the boys sitting on the left side and the girls sitting on the right side, separated by potted flowers in the middle.Although the gentlemen are not at the same table as the girls, they can see them through the potted flowers.

Pei Ruji was entangled by his brothers, drank two glasses of wine, and when he looked across, he saw that Huajiao and Xuexiu were no longer on their seats.He found an excuse to leave Chongyun Hall, and met Zheng Min and Kong Yu under the stone steps.

Zheng Min's expression was gloomy, and he didn't seem to be delighted by winning Qin Jue.Kong Yu's face was full of joy, and he said happily: "You always say that she plays the pipa well, but I don't think so, but for a piece of music, she made several wrong notes and broke the strings, which shows the skill of the lute. Not so much."

Zheng Min frowned and said nothing.

Only then did Kong Yu realize that Zheng Min's expression was not right, and he didn't quite understand why Zheng Min was not happy about getting the piano, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Zheng Min said worriedly: "Why do you think she played the wrong note?"

Kong Yu smiled and said, "What else can I do? It's not that my skills are inferior to others."

Zheng Min shook his head.

Jiang Huajiao obviously played very well, but for some reason she played the wrong note, if it was said that it was caused by panic, she didn't believe it.The Jiang Huajiao in her impression was bold, careful and thick-skinned, how could he be flustered?

Zheng Min couldn't understand it.

Pei Ruzhi walked down the steps slowly in his fluffy robe, and when he passed Zheng Min, he suddenly said, "You two, please stay."

Zheng Min stopped in his tracks, raised his eyes and glanced at Pei Ruji, then hurriedly lowered his head, and asked with a smile, "I don't know who is the gentleman?"

Pei Ruji saluted and said: "It's General Yunhui, Pei Ruji, who just saw Mrs. Zheng playing the piano on the stage."

Zheng Min snorted, hooked one hand to play with the ring around his waist, peeked at Pei Ruji from time to time, and asked softly, "I don't know if General Pei called me for something?"

Kong Yu raised her eyebrows, and blinked meaningfully at Zheng Min.

Pei Ruji smiled and asked, "Madam Zheng just saw your younger sister, Madam Jiang? I don't know where she went?"

Zheng Min was taken aback, raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Pei Ruji, smiled awkwardly, pointed to the path not far ahead and said, "She's heading there."

Pei Ruji smiled and said, "Thank you."

He turned around to leave, but suddenly turned around and said, "However, I have a piece of advice for you two, don't talk about people's merits in private." After saying this, he bowed to the two of them, strode towards the path, and divided the flowers and willows. and go.

Kong Yu looked at Pei Ruji's back, and said with a complicated expression: "I thought he was interested in you, but unexpectedly, he went looking for your good girl. He really has no eyes."

Zheng Min gave Kong Yu a blank look, and said coldly: "Don't talk about people's merits in private, didn't General Pei just say that."

Kong Yu looked unhappy: "Why should I listen to him."

Huajiao was lying on his back among the flowers, with his head resting on the beautiful and fragrant peonies, smelling the rich fragrance of flowers, he slowly exhaled a foul breath full of anger.

A few bees and butterflies buzzed and flew over her face, and the sound was heard in her ears, as if they were mocking her.

What a shame!

Yu Taiqing was taken aback for a moment, thinking that with her skill, she would not fall.

He hurriedly leaned over and stretched out his hand towards the corner of the painting, trying to pull her up.

"Get up." He said slowly, with a trace of warmth in his light voice.

The dazzling sunlight fell behind him, and against the light, his face was hidden in the shadows, and he could vaguely see the brilliance flowing in the waves of his clear eyes.

A luminous white flower with the mouth of a bowl swayed in front of Huajiao's face, she reached out and grabbed it, covering her face.

A faint smile floated on the corner of Yu Taiqing's lips, and she still bent over and waited.

"Go away!" Hua Jiao suddenly said coldly.

She let go of the peony in her hand, glared at him angrily, turned her head, supported the ground with her uninjured palm, slapped the ground, and jumped up with her strength.

The skirts spread out layer upon layer, like a peony in full bloom.The soft and silky gauze slid over the back of Yu Taiqing's hand, lightly, like a wisp of smoke.

The angled posture lands lightly, and the spread skirt slowly falls back.

She turned around slowly and looked at him expressionlessly.

Yu Taiqing slowly withdrew her hand in a little embarrassment, flicked her sleeves, and asked, "Do your fingers still hurt?"

Hua Jiao raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer, "Of course it hurts. Thank you, Supervisor Yu, for your concern."

Yu Taiqing said again: "Your dress..."

The corner of the painting followed Yu Taiqing's eyes and looked down, only to see a corner of the skirt was scratched by a flower branch.The expensive yunluosha was indeed not the dress that a demon subduing master should wear.However, fortunately, her skirt does not only have one layer, but three layers. Apart from being embarrassing, it is harmless.

Hua Jiao stretched out his hand to hold down the skirt, and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Pei Ruji standing there with a startled expression on the path not far ahead.Because the peony plant was overwhelmed by Hua Jiao, his eyes fell on Yu Taiqing and Hua Jiao without hindrance.

His body seemed to be frozen, motionless, only his eyes were moving, turning slowly.

Hua Jiao glanced at Pei Ruji, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips, feeling that he was really unlucky.

It was so embarrassing, but it was actually seen by a third person.

Pei Ruji was stunned for a moment, and finally came to his senses, walked over quickly, and asked, "Captain Yu, do you know Miss Jiang?"

The corner of Yu Taiqing's lips curled slightly, and she nodded.

Pei Ruji glanced down at the peony plant that was overwhelmed by the painted corner, and asked coldly, "What are you two doing here?"

Hua Jiao hurriedly said: "General Pei, don't misunderstand me, I have something to talk to Yu Dujian, I accidentally fell down just now."

Pei Ru glanced at Huajiao, but turned to Yu Taiqing, and said in a bad tone: "Yu Dujian, you have something to say to Mrs. Jiang, but where can't you say it? There are tables and chairs in the flower pavilion over there. Sit down, lady, can't we talk about it? She is a little lady in the boudoir, her reputation is important. Don't deceive her that she has no father and no mother. If there is anything to do in the future, you don't have to look for her again, just talk to Pei."

The smile on Yu Taiqing's lips froze, her long eyes narrowed slightly, she looked at the corner of the painting without blinking, and asked: "So, General Pei has become the master of Mrs. Jiang?"

Before Hua Jiao could speak, Pei Ruji said first, "Of course!"

Yu Taiqing smiled suddenly, his water-like eyes gleamed with a cold light: "That's fine, then General Pei will wait for Tianshusi to summon you." After saying that, he left with his hands behind his back, looking pretty The figure quickly disappeared among the flowers.

Hua Jiao felt that something was wrong, what did Yu Taiqing want to summon Pei Ruji for?
Pei Ruji calmed down for a moment, and asked Hua Jiao: "What happened just now?"

Naturally, the truth cannot be told to Pei Ruji.

Hua Jiao smiled wryly: "I came out to enjoy the flowers, and I happened to meet Yu Dujian here, and I accidentally fell down. He just wanted to help me up, so you shouldn't make things difficult for him."

While talking, Huajiao suddenly noticed a monster aura rising from the direction of the flower shed.

"No, General Pei, something happened to the flower shed."
