The three princes gather together 8
Rong Yiqing's voice rose slowly: "Whether I have misspoken or not, everyone naturally understands."
Two months ago, the sixth prince fell in love at first sight with the daughter of the Xingzhou prefecture governor and sent someone to deliver fresh fruits from Shu state to win her heart.
"Nowadays, I haven't heard anything from that beautiful woman?"
"Wow... A beauty in red dust, no one knows if it's a fresh fruit! Nalan Rong, you're not bad, chasing beauty for thousands of miles, what's the result?" Ming Yuqiong also heard this gossip and asked.
Rong Yi gave Ming Yuexiang a deep and mysterious glance.
Nalan Rong paused for a moment, feeling that Rong Yong seemed somewhat different today. Her face was half-hidden behind a veil of gentleness, like the softness of spring breeze.
"What a lone rider in the red dust, a beautiful woman smiling, several baskets of fresh fruit, it's just a gift between friends, nothing more!"
Rong Yi smiled and said: "It seems that the sixth prince's friend is really many, every few months will change one."
"Rong Yi, could it be that you're envying me? If you don't want to stay in the mansion every day, with your reputation as the number one young master of the imperial capital, you'll certainly have even more friends." Nalan Liantao gazed at Rong Yi with a slanted glance, her jade fan swaying slowly.
"Not everyone can be called a friend." Rong Yi smiled lightly, seemingly unbothered.
Although his words were as clear and gentle as a breeze, they carried an inexplicable sense of pride.
"That's right, it's better not to use the word 'friend' loosely." Ming Yuleng nodded and said, what Nalan Lian said was not a friend at all, obviously just a euphemism for a mistress. It's better for men not to be too promiscuous.
Nalan Lian gazed at Ming Yuke with a gentle smile, her eyes drifting towards the lake's surface. "It's pointless to talk about these things," she said. "Hong Hu Li, I recall you have a painted barge on the lake. Why not row it over and let us sit for a while? This is Yu Ke's first time at Star Moon Lake, and she hasn't seen the full view yet."
Ming Yu Kong glanced at Rong Yi, who was indeed wealthy enough to have a separate courtyard by the Star and Moon Lake.
And there is also his own yacht - Huafang, which is equivalent to a private scenic area for him alone.
When Nalan Lian called out to Ming Yuqiong, Rong Yi's gaze fell on the snow-white dress with a butterfly pattern that she was wearing, and he smiled slightly.
"Since the Sixth Prince and Miss Ming want to have some fun, it's naturally no problem." He turned his head to instruct Qu Shang: "Have someone bring over the pleasure boat."
Qu Shang immediately responded: "Alright, Young Master."
He turned around and made a gesture towards the lake surface, and soon a small two-story pleasure boat sailed over from the opposite shore.
"I didn't expect you to be so pleasant today, Rong Hu Li. It's not easy to get a seat on your boat usually." Nalan Lian felt relieved that the topic had been changed and fanned himself with a carefree expression.
The smile at the corner of Rong Yi's mouth was as gentle as a spring breeze, and his temperament was elegant. "Since it's the Sixth Prince and Miss Ming together asking me, I naturally can't easily refuse."
Ming Yu Kong was curious about the painting boat, and as it sailed over, her gaze lingered on it.
Although the painting boat is small, it has carved beams and painted rafters, exquisite flower windows, and looks extremely delicate. The high-quality purple wood does not need to be painted and already presents a noble color, emitting a natural fragrance.
Luxuriant and magnificent, showing nobility, extraordinary materials, and transcendent taste. She knew that the cost of building the painted barge was higher than that of a large ship.
As soon as the boat reached the shore, the vendor went over and took the rope...
