Human Trivia

  "Chu Shao, you're late, that's not like you at all! Don't say anything else, first have three cups of wine as a penalty!"

  Chu Qing's crazy talent went to the Dou Peng, and before he sat down, he heard Wu Mingyuan's yin-yang strange voice. He handed over the Dou Peng to Hua Junzi with a wave of his hand, letting them retreat, and then stepped forward with a fist, smiling evilly: "Forgive me, forgive me, I was in a hurry when I went out the door and delayed it again, making several princes wait for a long time. I really apologize, I admit my fault!"

  "Then let's punish him!" Wu Mingyuan handed over a bowl from his side, smiling without changing his face: "Boss Chu has an extraordinary capacity for wine, others use wine cups, Boss Chu must not be satisfied with it, use a bowl! Cai Chun, fill up for Master Chu!"

  The woman beside Wu Mingyuan smiled and really poured wine from the jug into his bowl.

  The fifth prince Wu Minghao and Chu Qingkuang were relatively close, and he couldn't help but advise: "Imperial brother, it's enough to just give in, don't let Qingkuang drink so much!"

  Wu Mingyuan slanted his eyes and looked at him, speaking in a mysterious tone: "Fifth brother, are you dissatisfied with me? Do you think the emperor is intentionally making things difficult for Old Man Chu?"

  Wu Ming Hao fell silent, seeing the Second Prince Wu Ming slightly shaking his head across from him. He forced a smile: "Younger brother just thinks that this fine huadiao is being wasted by Lin Kuang drinking like this. This was something that Second Brother had trouble getting, how could it be wasted on one person? I'll drink too, and coincidentally, let me refill your cup!"

  By the side of the bathtub, he brought with him a clever and stealthy glance at Chu Qingkuang, then lowered his eyes to pour wine for Wu Minghao.

  Wu Minghao quietly made a helpless gesture to Chu Qingcang, and then he drank with Yicai. After Wu Mingyuan was injured, his temperament changed greatly, becoming more and more difficult to get along with. At this time, it was clear that he wanted to make things difficult for Chu Qingcang, so he didn't intervene, lest he ruin the birthday banquet of the Second Imperial Brother.

  Wu Mingzheng also helplessly rushed Chu Qingkong and made a gesture with his eyes, meaning to let him wait a little longer.

  Chu Qing is a crazy guy. Don't mention doing business all these years, what kind of person hasn't he seen? If he really doesn't want to drink, even the emperor himself came and couldn't do anything about it.

  With just a glance, he saw that Wu Mingyuan's injured hand was still hidden in his sleeve as usual. He thought of the night when Wu Mingyuan crawled in the rain and desperately shouted at himself. Then he thought of Rong'er's gentle reminder before they left the house, and couldn't help but smile to himself. The precious Rong'er was missed by Wu Mingyuan, but was cherished by himself, this kind of joy was something that Wu Mingyuan would never know!

  In a great mood, this wine is not wasted. He raised his bowl and laughed smugly: "Come on, Chu's late arrival will be punished with three bowls first, to apologize to all the nobles!"

  He raised his neck and drank a bowl of wine in a few mouthfuls, then handed it to Cai Chun on the side, with a sly smile: "Fill it up again!"

  He took off his cloak, revealing a moon-white long shirt underneath. The fabric was obviously high-quality silk, with a pure and natural luster. He was already born with a charming appearance, but the moon-white brocade made him even more stunning. With his unrestrained and carefree demeanor, he smiled with an air of mischief and madness, making Cai Chunfang's heart skip a beat as she poured wine for him, almost spilling it!

  Chen Nian's flower carving was almost gone, just a few bowls left, and it was drunk by several princes earlier. Seeing that only half a jar was left, Chu Qingchao simply picked it up and said: "Don't pour it away, there are only two more bowls left, I'll drink them all! Come on, let's use this wine to celebrate the second prince's birthday and wish him to marry a gentle and virtuous princess soon, and have another child next year!"

  He raised the wine jug and drank it in big gulps. If a robust man were to drink like this, he would appear rough, but he was born with a refined and charming appearance, and instead, he gave off an air of elegance.

  She glanced sideways at the men present, feeling that these princes and nobles were no match for Chu Qing's unruly nature. What kind of woman would be worthy of their wild young master? She felt a pang of jealousy towards that unknown woman who was still somewhere out there, and with a hint of melancholy, she hid her beautiful eyes under her long eyelashes, her spirit wounded...

  Chu Qing's face turned red after drinking, and Wu Mingyuan let out a cold hum, temporarily not making things difficult for him. With a good hand, he rotated the wine cup and said with a pretentious air of nonchalance: "Young Master Chu, where did you go those days? Why haven't I seen you for so long?"

  Chu Qing's heart was coldly laughing, Wu Mingyuan must have suspected that the masked man was him a few days ago, and had many people watching Chu Ji and the wine house, until nothing was found before reluctantly withdrawing.

  A person can withdraw, but the doubts in his heart cannot be dispelled immediately. He has no idea that Xiao Cong Rong is hiding in a secret place, and even if he thinks hard, he will not think that Xiao Cong Rong is still safely staying in the capital!

  Although he was unwilling, he couldn't help but respond. He shook his head with a pretentious expression of annoyance and said: "Don't mention it, I went back to my hometown for a while, the reason is similar to that of the Fifth Prince, asking me to marry! You don't know how annoying it is... Those country women can't compare to those in the capital, so rough and unrefined... I couldn't stay there, I stayed for a few days and then returned under the pretext of having business in the capital! Along the way, I also inspected some business, so I delayed for a few days and missed many exciting things in the capital!"

  The second prince glanced at him faintly and shook his head: "Brother Chu still hasn't changed his habit of enjoying the commotion! Truly a childish temperament!"

  "Haha, life is dull, and I'm not exciting enough myself. How can I get through these long nights without watching some excitement?"

  Chu Qing crazily glanced at Wu Minghao and chuckled: "Fifth Prince, didn't the Empress choose a consort for you? It seemed to be Miss Guo from the Guo family. When are you getting married? Let Chu go make some noise then!"

  Wu Minghao hated it the most when people brought up this matter, and without any consideration for Wu Mingyuan's presence, he shouted: "I, the king, will not get married! I have already made a poisonous oath to my mother that I will not get married until I find Rongrong. If you force me, I will leave the capital and wander the world!"

  Wu Mingyuan's face turned gloomy, and he glanced at Chu Qingcang. Chu Qingcang pretended not to see it, but in his heart, he was planning to take Xiao Zongrong away.

  Previously, Xiao Congrong was seriously injured and stayed in the capital to take good care of him. However, the night is long and dreams are many. Although his own men were loyal and devoted, if Chu Yun'an came, he couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't let it slip. After all, they were originally servants of the Chu family before becoming his friends. At critical moments, he had to make preparations for both possibilities.

  Wu Mingzheng also didn't know how to respond, and lowered his eyes to stare at the wine cup in front of him, lost in thought.

  Wu Minghao brought up Xiao Congrong, and it was easy to lose his composure. He grabbed a wine cup and drank several cups in a row, then shouted at Wu Mingyuan: "Third brother, how do your subordinates handle things? Didn't you say that they had already gone to investigate Rongrong's whereabouts? How come after such a long time, there is still no result? Is she dead or alive? Give me some news! Let me wait every day, do you know how sad I am?"

  Wu Mingyuan's face turned unpleasant as he glared at him, coldly sneering: "Look at how big of a deal you're making over this, for the sake of a woman you're willing to die and make a scene, aren't you afraid of losing face in front of outsiders and embarrassing the imperial family?"

  "What's there to be ashamed of? I just like Rongrong, so what? Who in the capital doesn't know that? If you had let her go with me back then, how could she have ended up like this... now missing and possibly dead... You may not care about her, but I do..."

  He had drunk too much, his eyes were red with rage, Wu Ming hurriedly pulled him back and advised: "Fifth brother, don't be like this, third brother has tried his best to find her, if there's no result it's not his responsibility, calm down, as long as Third Miss is dead, she will definitely be found!"

  Wu Minghao saw that Wu Mingyuan was so angry that his face turned green, but he still had some clarity, and he lowered his head to apologize for his previous rudeness: "I'm just too worried about Rongrong, she broke her leg, how can she live?"

  Chu Qingxian ignored the disputes between his brothers, holding the view that one less matter was better than one more. He poured himself a drink and watched as the female zither player began to play a small tune at the behest of the Second Prince, unable to help but smile in appreciation.

  The melody was somewhat cheerful, with slender fingers flying up and down, inexplicably making him think of Xiao Congrong's long fingers when playing chess, it was also these fingers that had tied his cloak for him just now, gentle as a young wife seeing off her husband on a distant journey...

  That proud woman still blushes and shows a girlish charm, but Wu Mingyuan, who is blind to this charm, must not see it, otherwise how could he be so cruel to her?

  Nobody could see it, but he was glad he did!

  The wine party ended late, and everyone was drunk. When Huajunzi helped him onto the carriage, he glanced back and saw that when Moyu pulled him away, there was only one person left in the carriage.

  He drank a lot but didn't get drunk, narrowed his long eyes and propped up his head with his hand to rest quietly. When the carriage returned to the wine tower, the snow got bigger, he got off the carriage, wrapped his cloak tightly and walked in, standing still under the wall of the courtyard at the door porch.

  Just after a yawn, Hua Junzi fell beside him. In the cold weather, he stood here without surprise and said in a low voice: "The Third Prince doesn't know what he said to the Fifth Prince, but the Fifth Prince left in a huff. After the Third Prince waited for him to leave, he went back to Linjiang Garden with the Second Prince to sleep. The Second Prince called two girls to serve the Third Prince!"

  Chu Qing crazily rubbed his nose, which had become somewhat stiff from the cold, and thought for a moment before sighing: "I really don't know what kind of brain the Fifth Prince has, I'm so tempted to cut it open and take a look... Ah, with this kind of brain, if he leaves his mother, how can he survive?"

  Hua Junzi was in a daze, watching him sigh and then walk inside. Hurriedly, he caught up to ask: "Then what should we do?"

  Chu Qing looked at him crazily and smiled: "It's cold outside, sleeping is the best!"

  What an answer! Huajunzi was petrified, while Chulixiang continued to yawn and walk in, looking like he hadn't slept even if the sky fell... He really went to sleep...
