Chapter 657
Bo Langjun's abnormal behavior caught Luo Jiaojiao's attention, and she also looked around.

But the bamboo grove was quiet, and there was nothing but green bamboos.

"I heard someone playing the flute in the bamboo forest last night."

Bo Langjun didn't intend to hide it from Luo Jiaojiao.

"what?"

Luo Jiaojiao didn't react for a while, but just let out an "ah" in surprise.

"But there is no trace of it in the forest, which is really incredible."

Mr. Bo Lang couldn't help frowning.

"If she is a person with strong martial arts, maybe she is standing on a bamboo branch and playing the flute!"

Luo Jiaojiao's words made Mr. Bo look up at the bamboo shoots.

"Qinggong is good, it won't leave any trace!"

Luo Jiaojiao also looked up, but only saw the tender green bamboo leaves covering the sun.

"That's right! Let's ask Master Qiu!"

Bo Langjun took Luo Jiaojiao's hand and walked out of the bamboo forest.

Qiu Zijun did not call a group of ministers to discuss matters every day like other vassal states, but let them perform their duties, and only summoned the relevant ministers to discuss unless there was something important that could not be decided.

In his words, it is useless to listen to people who don't understand!
Therefore, the monarch Qiu Zijun is very leisurely all day long, only occasionally playing chess, fishing and chatting with the great Confucians around him, and the rest of the time is spent drinking.

Bo Langjun and Luo Jiaojiao found Qiu Zijun on the water pavilion in the imperial garden.He is drinking alone, enjoying himself!
"Master Qiu!"

Luo Jiaojiao ran to Qiu Zijun's side and knelt down to pour wine for him.

"Here you come? What do you want me to do?"

Qiu Zijun took the wine glass that Luo Jiaojiao handed him and asked.

"I just want to ask about the original owner of Huasheng Garden, that Taoist nun!"

Luo Jiaojiao asked with a smile under Bo Langjun's eyes.

"puff!"

Qiu Zijun spit out all the wine he had just taken.

"Can't understand!"

Qiu Zijun put down his wine glass and wiped the corner of his mouth, looking at Bo Langjun.

"Last night, I heard the sound of the flute from the bamboo grove, and I didn't close my eyes for half the night. Wouldn't the master give me an explanation?"

Mr. Bo Lang pursed his lips tightly.

"Flute sound?"

Qiu Zijun was stunned when he heard this!
"Why? Master really doesn't know?"

Bo Langjun went to Qiu Zijun and sat down.

"If she is alive, she may be a hundred years old! Impossible!"

Qiu Zijun shook his head in disbelief.

"Master, how about staying in Watson Garden with your apprentice tonight?"

Mr. Bo Lang wanted to find out about this matter.

"This is fine!"

Qiu Zijun held the wine glass in front of Luo Jiaojiao.

The well-behaved Luo Jiaojiao quickly filled the wine glass.

"Don't rush away! Have a few drinks with me!"

Seeing that Mr. Bo Lang wanted to get up, Qiu Zijun hurriedly grabbed his arm.

Mr. Bo Lang had no choice but to sit down and have a drink with him.

"Guard Liang! Get the piano!"

Taking advantage of the wine, Qiu Zijun ordered his personal bodyguard to fetch his guqin.

Luo Jiaojiao watched curiously as guard Liang put the guqin in front of Qiu Zijun.

"Come on! Disciple! It's up to you to play!"

Qiu Zijun got up and went to the water pavilion to pick up the fishing rod.

Mr. Bo Lang hadn't played the piano for many days, and he felt itchy when he saw the Guqin in Qiu Zijun's collection.He walked to a few desks, sat down, and began to play.

Liang Shiwei always thought that Mr. Bo Lang was just a pampered and useless uncle of the country, but he never thought that his piano skills were so superb, so he knew why his master was willing to accept him as his apprentice.

There was a sudden "crash" on the surface of the water, and Luo Jiaojiao, who was concentrating on listening to the piano, couldn't help turning her head to see that Qiu Zijun had caught a carp with golden scales.

"Wow! Master Qiu! We have fish for lunch!"

Luo Jiaojiao ran over excitedly, but unexpectedly, Qiu Zijun let the fish go.

"This fish is not edible!"

Qiu Zijun hooked up the bait again and cast out the fishing line.

"why?"

Luo Jiaojiao asked puzzledly.

"Can't afford it!"

Qiu Zijun smiled with a twinkle in his phoenix eyes.

"It turned out that I couldn't bear it!"

Luo Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue.

"Do you know how much this tail is worth?"

Qiu Zijun pointed to a carp similar to the one just now in the water and asked Luo Jiaojiao.

"don't know!"

Luo Jiaojiao shook her head to express her ignorance.

"These are tribute fish. They are very spiritual. They are hard to buy. There are only three fish in the pond!"

Qiu Zijun pointed to the two in the distance for Luo Jiaojiao to see.

"Since he is so spiritual, how could he be caught by you?"

Luo Jiaojiao's words made both Qiu Zijun and Bo Langjun stunned.

Bo Langjun's piano sound also stopped abruptly.

"They won't lie to you!"

Luo Jiaojiao joked casually.

"Luo Xiaoniang! Don't talk nonsense! The crime of deceiving the emperor will punish the nine clans!"

Bo Langjun frowned.

"Master Qiu! I'm just joking, don't take it seriously! You are the king, how dare the fish not bite when it sees you coming?"

Luo Jiaojiao hurriedly said something nice so as not to harm the innocent.

"Come and show me the fish!"

Qiu Zijun never thought about this question, but felt that Luo Jiaojiao's words made sense.

Luo Jiaojiao had no choice but to sit beside Qiu Zijun and hold the fishing rod.She kept muttering in her heart:
"Fish! Don't take the bait!"

"Whoosh!"

The hook suddenly sank, and Luo Jiaojiao's heart sank.

"Quickly lift the pole!"

Qiu Zijun grabbed the fishing rod.Luo Jiaojiao had no choice but to lift the fish up.

"Eh? Why can't you pull it?"

Luo Jiaojiao pulled the fishing rod vigorously, but the rod did not move at all.

"There are big fish in the pond!"

Luo Jiaojiao's eyes began to light up.As long as it's not those three carp!She began to pull the fishing rod with all her strength.

Qiu Zijun was afraid that Luo Jiaojiao would break his fishing rod, so he did it himself.

Qiu Zijun pulled hard with his internal strength, and what he caught made Bo Langjun laugh out loud.

"Old turtle!"

Luo Jiaojiao's eyes widened as she watched the giant turtle kicking all fours in the air.

"How did you catch it?"

Qiu Zijun shook his hand, and the fishing line snapped, and the turtle fell into the water with a "plop", causing a huge splash, which shocked the fish in the pond to flee in all directions, and disappeared into the bottom of the water in an instant.

"Stop fishing! Guard Liang! Tell the cook to eat steamed carp for lunch today!"

Qiu Zijun put down his fishing rod and ordered.

"Eat here?"

Guard Liang was a little dazed.

"Are there no fish anywhere except the fish in the pond?"

After all, Qiu Zijun was still reluctant.

Guard Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried to the imperial kitchen to deliver a message.

At today's luncheon, Luo Jiaojiao looked at the steamed carp in front of her and felt that it was no different from the one in the pond.

"Try the fish!"

Seeing that Luo Jiaojiao didn't move her chopsticks, Qiu Zijun thought she was still thinking about the fish in her pond, so he urged her to taste it.

Luo Jiaojiao picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks and took a bite. She felt that it was very delicious, and said, "It's delicious!"

A smile appeared on Qiu Zijun's face, and he called the guard Liang and asked him to reward the imperial chef.

Bo Langjun has a strong taste, so he doesn't think there is anything special about this steamed carp.He put his favorite sliced ​​steamed beef in his mouth and chewed it carefully, he thought it tasted good.

Since Ji Lian'er's baby passed away, she has no taste for anything she eats.The steamed carp reminded her of her hometown cuisine, and she couldn't help but slowly said:
"The concubine has been away from home for a long time, and I want to go back and have a look."

Qiu Zijun, who was eating and drinking happily, couldn't help but feel his heart sink.

"I can go back with Sister Ji! Don't worry, Master Qiu!"

Seeing that Qiu Zijun didn't agree, Luo Jiaojiao thought he was worried about Ji Lian'er!
