The two of them got up and went back to King Zhuang's mansion when the sun was about to set, Li Qianyu looked calm, while Mu Qing was a little reluctant. But in the end, there can be no more delays, some things are actually urgent.

Mu Qing and Li Qianyu did not return the same way, but directly used the light body method, one after the other to the city gate, and when they entered the city, they saw the bustling crowd again, the lively streets, and the prosperity, but there was a little less joy and comfort in the shade of the grass and trees in the suburbs.

"You're going back tomorrow?" Li Qianyu said as he walked.

Mu Qing's eyes swept over a jewelry stall on the side, and after hearing Li Qianyu's question, he smiled and said, "What Brother Li said is that he is going back to the Yamen tomorrow." ”

Li Qianyu nodded and said, "The affairs of the Martial Academy still need to be taken care of by yourself." ”

Mu Qing responded and wrote it down in his heart.

At this time, Mu Qing felt a sudden blinding light in front of him. He stretched out his hand to block it, and subconsciously looked up, and saw a man in a dark blue brocade robe sitting in the window seat on the second floor of the restaurant who was probing out slightly, and he was holding a small round mirror in his hand, which he could hold in his palm, and he used the mirror to shake Mu Qing's eyes.

Mu Qing blinked his eyes to see the man's face clearly, and then he paused.

Li Qianyu turned his head to look at him, and the jade bone fan was held in the palm of his hand: "What's the matter?" ”

Mu Qing smiled, pointed to the restaurant next to him and said, "This Drunken Xianju's beef is famous, I want to buy some and go back, it can be regarded as a fresh taste." ”

Li Qianyu looked at the plaque of Drunken Immortal Residence, he knew this place, it was a famous restaurant, the owner was an official businessman, and he was also a well-connected person. However, he didn't believe Mu Qing's words: "The most famous thing in this Drunken Immortal Residence is not beef, but wine," as he said, Li Qianyu raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter, you haven't drunk enough wine, do you still want to drink some?" ”

Mu Qing scratched his face, looking a little embarrassed by being pierced in his mind, but Li Qianyu didn't feel sorry for him, and waved his hand: "You can go yourself." Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around, but he heard Li Qianyu's voice coming, "If you are drunk, just spend the night outside the palace." ”

These words were light and cool, and Mu Qing trembled when he heard it. turned around, but couldn't find Li Qianyu's figure, the person was obviously mixed into the crowd and couldn't be found.

Mu Qing sighed, knowing that he was afraid that he would be recorded by that person again, and he didn't want to smell the wine these days, so he turned around and entered the Drunken Immortal Residence, and went upstairs along the wooden steps.

=============================================================================

Zuixianlou is one of the most famous restaurants in the capital, and even now when it is less than a meal, there are a lot of people.

The hall was bustling, and there were a lot of people on the second floor, and the private room seemed to be full, and the sound of laughter came from inside, but there was not even a screen outside, and everyone could look at each other, without the slightest isolation.

As soon as Mu Qing went upstairs, he saw a man in brocade sitting by the window, who was holding a cup of tea and drinking it to himself.

Mu Qing walked over a little quietly, sat directly opposite him, and said, "Brother Du, you have hurt me." ”

The man in the dark blue brocade is clearly Du Luo, Mr. Du Luo is still the appearance of Feng Shen Yuxiu, he looks no different from his original face, and he looked at Mu Qing with a faint smile when he looked at Mu Qing: "Childe, your recent life has been leisurely and comfortable, and you are so envious of it." ”

Mu Qing rolled his eyes when he heard this, and was unceremoniously: "You can only see me at ease, but you know the hardships of me having to be cautious in my words and deeds every day." ”

"Being an official is just to act cautiously and find the right team, so that you can be promoted and make a fortune, in order to gain power and dominate the world, I don't know how many people envy you."

This was a bit flattering, but Mu Qing could hear the absent-mindedness in it. He sighed a little depressedly, and did not answer, but raised his hand and beckoned the shopkeeper to come over: "Serve the pot of wine." ”

The shopkeeper greeted him very familiarly and raised his voice: "Does the guest officer want Jin Stem Dew or Taixi Bai?" ”

Mu Qing smiled when he heard this: "Come on, don't fool me, I'm here to drink and not to drink my name." Just have a pot of tulips. ”

The shopkeeper was not annoyed when he saw that his sales tactics had been punctured, but still responded with a smile: "Okay! Then he hurried downstairs to drink.

The tulips Mu Qing mentioned are not beautiful flowers that look cheerful and unrestrained, but a famous liquor. The name is quoted from the poem "Jinling Wine Tulip", and then some people named the tulip as the name of the wine, because the wine is golden and fragrant, which is also very consistent with the name of the slightly beautiful tulip.

It didn't take long for the shopkeeper to walk upstairs quickly with a tray of jujube red, his movements were neat, his hands and feet were quick, he put the white wine pot and wine glass on the table, took two wine glasses very intimately, and said with a smile after putting them down: "The two of you use it slowly, if there is something, just greet the small one." Seeing Mu Qing nodding, he smiled and went to greet other guests.

"This shop's little two is neat." Mu Qing picked up the wine jug, poured the cup in front of him, and poured it in front of Du Luo.

Du Luo put aside the teacup with an indifferent expression, stretched out his hand and took the wine glass, looking at the beautiful wine as flowing gold, and his voice was as elegant as the wind passing through the bamboo forest: "That's natural." ”

Mu Qing nodded, responded indifferently, also picked up the cup, sniffed, and felt that in addition to the mellow aroma of the wine, there was also a faint floral fragrance, which smelled good, so he raised his glass and prepared to drink it, and asked casually: "It sounds like Brother Du seems to know him." ”

Duro was still calm, with a faint soft look on his face: "Yes, he is my man." ”

Mu Qing, who had just taken a sip of wine, felt that he couldn't get down or down when he heard this, because he was surprised that he couldn't swallow and couldn't go up and down, but Du Luo kindly patted him on the back so that Mu Qing wouldn't choke to death.

Coughing a few times, with a little flash of light in the corners of his eyes, Mu Qing wiped his eyes with a handkerchief before looking up at Du Luo: "Brother Du, you ...... You're really all over the place. ”

Duro smiled and shook his glass slightly: "He is not my servant, but my believer. He believed in the nothingness of things, and he believed that following me could lead to bliss after death, and although he did not sell himself to me, he could still do what I asked and what he said. ”

Although Mu Qing knew how the Haoqi Alliance advocated by Du Luo worked - in fact, the essence of the idea was put forward by Mu Qing himself - but it was unthinkable that it could develop to this point.

He nodded, wrote down this place in his heart, then raised his glass and changed the subject: "Brother Du, why are you looking for me this time?" ”

Douro smiled, not hiding it in the slightest.

The place he chose was close to the street, and when the windows were opened, they could see the scene inside very lightly, and they didn't go to the private room, but found a seat in the lobby, which seemed to be very unsafe in the eyes of everyone, but the two of them knew in their hearts that it was much safer than in the secret room, and it was only properly concealed by mixing in the crowd, and they could also know it at the first time when people paid attention to it, and the window was open to cover up the noise outside, which was the most suitable.

I heard Douro say calmly: "I came today to give you a gift." With that, Du Luo took out a plain white handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Mu Qing.

Mu Qing took it and touched the hard forehead object inside, and when he opened it, he saw a round and full pearl lying in the middle of the handkerchief in his palm. Mu Qing pinched the bead and looked at it, only to feel that it was smooth and round, delicate and full, which was extremely rare. At first glance, you can tell that it is not ordinary.

Mu Qing was a little puzzled and said, "Where did this thing come from?" ”

Du Luo took a sip of wine, and then said: "This thing is the pearl of the night, it is extremely rare, it is enshrined by a small country in the East China Sea, and there are only two in the entire Great Zhou. One, with the late queen mother being buried, and another was embroidered in the middle of the phoenix crown at the queen's wedding, and then handed over to the Song family for safekeeping. ”

"It's a baby." Mu Qing's eyes began to glow as he looked at this bead.

Baby, money.

However, Du Luo selectively ignored this person's appearance as a wealth fan, and said with a smile: "Although the quantity is scarce, it is not a rare object, and now the most valuable thing is gold and jade, and this pearl is just because it shines a little peculiar at night, and it is not worth any money," he said, Du Luo curled the corners of his mouth, "If it is really valuable, it will not be lightly given to Miss Song Jia as a plaything." ”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qing pinched his master's hand and tightened it slightly, and grabbed the pearl that was originally pinched in his fingertips into the palm of his hand.

"This is Song Qionglan's?" Mu Qing looked at Du Luo and found that Du Luo seemed to nod lightly, and he suddenly understood the meaning of this bead.

This is Song Qionglan's, and it only belongs to her, if something happens in the future, this thing exclusive to Song Qionglan may kill her. Du Luo put Song Qionglan's life in his hands, this pearl is a real gift.

However, this feeling made Mu Qing feel a little uncomfortable, even though he didn't like Li Qianyu to marry, but he never thought of killing that Miss Song, whom he had never met.

But this is Du Luo's plan for himself, he can not do it, but he can't do without it, Mu Qing finally accepted the bead, stuffed it into the brocade bag around his waist and put it properly, and then showed a wry smile on his face: "Brother Du, your gift is extremely heavy, and I am afraid that I can't afford it." ”

Du Luo poured himself a glass of wine, and the handsome eyebrows were as handsome as a fairy: "It's just a woman, son, you are a person who does great things, why are you so indecisive." ”

When Mu Qing heard this, he glanced at him.

Douro is a man with great talent, and she has a unique charm that others don't have, his face, his voice, are addictive.

It's just that this person's attitude towards women from beginning to end is a bit condescending, and in the words of later generations, it is a habit of machismo. Mu Qing couldn't say anything about him, but said softly: "Brother Du is alone now, I'm afraid that there is no one to talk to, and I don't know which young lady will be blessed to be Mrs. Du in the future." ”

Duro tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Left and right, it's just like that." ”

Mu Qing was still smiling, looking light, only he knew how solemn he was saying: "Everyone has their own grinding, sooner or later, there will be a good woman." ”

This was awkward, Du Luo glanced at him, but Mu Qing didn't explain, just smiled and sipped his wine, contented.

Love, Duro doesn't understand, but sooner or later he has to understand. Mu Qing also believes that there will be someone who will come to teach this man Zhong Lingyuxiu what it means to love and part, and what it means to ask for it.
