- "Provenance?" Xiao Xing's eyes flashed with suspicion, and he immediately understood, and immediately said: "Because Xiao Xing also broke through the entrance of the secret passage for the first time, and he was worried about His Highness's side, he couldn't continue to go deeper." But just now, Xiaoxing was standing at the entrance of the secret passage, and he could feel a light breeze pouring into the depths of the passage, as if this passage was not shallow. ”

"That's right. If you want to dig a wall and drill a tunnel, there must be loose soil discharged, but I rarely leave Huayang Palace, and I used to sleep lightly at night, but I didn't notice it at all, and this loose soil could only be sent out from the other side. Wang Hong pondered for a while before he continued: "At the back of this room, leaning on a chess house, I have been there many times, but I feel that the four walls of the chess house are very normal, so where does this secret passage space come from?" ”

Li Shi suddenly said at this time: "It can also be a double-layer wall." ”

Wang Hong was puzzled: "Double? How is that fixed? ”

"This double-layer wall can be divided into horizontal and longitudinal double-layers. If His Highness had called a craftsman to measure the total length of the hall, or the width of the bedroom, and then compared it with the chess house, the result would have been obtained. Li Shi racked his brains and explained with great difficulty, and finally said: "In the early years, the prince spent all night at the desk making drawings, and the poor woman would enter his study every other day, or add some charcoal fire for heating in winter, or add some herbal tea to quench thirst in summer and summer. Sometimes, when he was disturbed and his train of thought was interrupted, he simply stopped writing for a while, and casually explained something to the poor woman. But the poor woman doesn't remember much. ”

"It's okay, you can remember so much, it can already help us a lot." From Li's first rough explanation, Wang Hong had already learned a piece of information with extraordinary significance, and he was surprised. He also asked Li Shi to repeat what he had just said.

After carefully sorting out this explanation in his mind, Wang Hong showed a happy smile on his face, and said slowly: "If this idea is true, then this secret passage may have existed since the beginning of the palace, and it has little to do with the design of Concubine De. ”

……

Xiao Xing had already understood at this time that this secret passage was not carved out of the inherent walls, but had long been included in the ranks of architectural design. belongs to the outer wall of the wall.

If you count the construction time of Huayang Palace. That would have been a long time ago. Facing east, the dormitory receives the morning sun at the earliest hour of the day, even in the cold winter. The pine forest behind the palace is like a cover, and it can avoid the scorching heat of the west. This palace occupies the foundation of a princess's dormitory in the previous dynasty, and the current emperor has pushed the building full of incense grease powder to build a new Huayang Palace with a rather elegant style and warmth for the second son who is frail.

The age of this palace. Almost the same age as the Southern Zhao Dynasty. When this palace was newly built, Concubine De was not as favored as she is now. I am afraid that I am unable to instruct the core officials of the Ministry of Industry to secretly tamper with the drawings, and after revising the design draft, they have kept it secret for so many years.

It's just that after the outer wall of this wall was built, it hid traces very secretly, and this hiding behavior was strange. Since it has long been in the scope of architectural design. Why don't people who live in this building know? What secrets must be sealed?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xing couldn't help asking: "If the palace was designed like this at the beginning of construction, then what is the significance of such construction?" ”

Wang Hong did not explain. Just handed his gaze to Li Shi. Li Shi thought about it for a while, and then explained: "Build a double wall. It is usually to block the outdoor heat and exposure in summer, but most of these walls seem to be built on the periphery, and looking at the approximate location of the secret passage in the wardrobe just now, it seems to be inside the middle partition wall. ”

"Instead of speculating for no reason, let's go and see for yourself where that secret passage comes from." Wang Hong, who was silent for a moment, suddenly spoke, and as soon as he finished speaking, he stood up. Mentally so engrossed in the sudden passage that he rose abruptly, and before he could close the thin blanket on his shoulders, the silky softness of the fine plush woven blanket slid down his thin but straight shoulders to his ankles.

Xiaoxing hurriedly bent down to pick up the blanket, and as soon as she stood up straight, she saw that Wang Hong had already walked quickly to the side of the screen, so she had to step up and chase after it.

Wang Hong opened the wardrobe door and scanned it again, but still didn't find anything, so he raised the doubt he had when he opened the cabinet door before: "I still can't see what secret passages can be in this cabinet, how did you get through?" ”

Although Wang Hong was thin, he was very tall, and Xiao Xing stood in front of him, and his forehead was no more than his lips.

Xiao Xing tiptoed and lifted the silk blanket in his hand onto Wang Hong's shoulder again, and pinched the two corners of the blanket to tie a knot in front of his neck, making the blanket a simple cloak that could not be thrown off lightly. After doing this, she opened her mouth to explain the secret of the secret passage: "The door of the secret passage has been specially controlled, and one person cannot open it, so two people need to step on both ends of the cabinet on the left and right. ”

"That's really hard to spot." When Wang Hong heard this, a hint of novelty appeared in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Generally, only clothes are placed in the closet, even if palace maids usually come to clean up clothes, there is no need to stand in." And hiding people like me in it, and hiding two at once, is also a very rare thing. Xiaoxing, am I lucky to be hit? ”

At this time, Xiaoxing's face did not have a relaxed expression, because she had already seen that the prince was really going to go in and find out.

"Your Highness, are you really going to go in?" Xiao Xing's eyes were full of worry, "It's better to pick a few reliable guards and go in again another day." ”

Wang Hong had already stood on the side of the cabinet, his eyes pointed to the other end of the cabinet, he didn't speak, but the meaning was clearly expressed, and there was no room for change.

Xiaoxing knows the temper of this prince very well, although he has a weak physique and lives a simple life all the year round, but in his body, there is a very strong courage and bravery. An unknown threat is extremely difficult to fear him.

Perhaps it was because of his father's extremely high position and extensive protection that he was able to act without fear. But there is also a possibility that this is the character he inherited from his father, and it is the character that a prince should have.

However, the fact that individuals are not afraid of danger does not mean that danger does not exist, and no matter how bold the prince is. It's only flesh and blood.

After struggling inwardly for a long time, in the face of the prince, Xiaoxing finally chose to take a step back. But her obedience was not simple, she ran to the couch in front of the screen, opened the crack drawer that she was so familiar with, and took out the Imperial Flying Fish Dagger from it. Although this dagger is short, it is sharp enough to cut through the gold stone lightly. It is the most powerful self-defense weapon in Huayang Palace. Took the Flying Fish Dagger. Xiaoxing picked up the triangular glass lamp on the table again, and then returned to the back of the screen.

Handing the Flying Fish Dagger into the hands of the prince, Xiaoxing broke off two of the three candles on the triangular glass lamp. Take one yourself, hand another one to Lai, and explain: "Holding your hand on a candle is more solid than holding it on a lampholder." ”

Li Shi nodded when he heard this.

If you wait a while, you will really encounter a lurking attack in the secret passage. In the midst of the fierce fight, it is indeed easy to cause the candle to separate from the lamp holder. Such a beautiful thing. It can often only be used in a harmonious environment.

After making all the preparations he could think of, Xiao Xing lit the candles held by the two of them respectively, and said to the prince: "Wait a while, the maid will walk in front, and Senior Li will walk behind." If Your Highness sees that the candle flame in my hand is weakening, it means that the breath in this secret passage is stagnant and cannot be continued. ”

……

When the aged wine goes to get the pot. Lin Shan threw a brief order at one of the guards at the door, and the guard immediately retreated. went to the study next door to invite the little son of the Yan family.

Chen Jiu, who was holding the wine jug, turned around, looked at Liao Shi and said slowly: "It's not that Xiaojiu is stingy. Uncle Liao can taste the vintage of this wine by sniffing, and it must not be difficult to see the traces of old age on this wine jug. At that time, all the wine utensils were designed and fired by themselves, and this pot was my grandfather's work. Although it seems to be so ugly that it can only be used as a children's urinal compared to the pottery making process that has advanced to the present, there is only one pot left in this world today.

It is not because the collection in the winery has been destroyed, but because there is actually a secret cellar that is well preserved. This is also the biggest secret of the Chen family's wine blending technology, and the aged puree has always been maintained in the three years of ten, twentieth and thirtieth. But speaking of which, although there is only one pot of this 60-year-old liquor puree, it is not the most precious. ”

"You're only on this ugly pot." After sighing lightly, Chen Jiu continued: "This is the collection of the Chen family winery when the foundation was laid, in the early years, the original puree in the cellar was bought, and from this pot, the Chen family brewed and reserved. To commemorate this day, my grandfather put his thumb print on the bottom of the pot, my father also pressed his thumb print on the top when he was born, and finally me, even though I was a woman, I also pressed my thumb print on it, thinking that I could continue to inherit the winery as a woman when I became an adult.

I will not be stingy with the sake here, or Uncle Liao will have time to return to Kyoto in the future, and the aged puree in the Chen family's secret wine cellar can be dedicated to Uncle Liao, but this pot cannot be given to you. Wine can be recreated, but the pot can't, this pot has frozen the memory of three generations of my Chen family, but as long as it exists, the traces of my Chen family's walk in the world can always be there. ”

The smile on Liao Shi's face gradually retracted, his expression gradually became solemn, and he said seriously: "No wonder you didn't worry about putting this fragile object in that extremely secret cellar three years ago, and you must take it with you all the way to the bumpy road." ”

Chen Jiu explained a lot just now, and at this time, I heard that Liao Shi agreed with her attitude towards this wine jug, but she didn't say a word anymore.

At this time, Liao Shi suddenly raised another hand, and the mood on his face was also abruptly reversed, while swinging his withered hand rapidly, he said in a somewhat precursor tone: "No, no, I said that the Chen family girl, you don't want to give it to me, and you can't disgust me so much!" What is not good, you say that it is like a urinal, the spout is so small, can you pee in? ”

Lin Shan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"Now that you've seen that it can't be used as a pot, then you should assume that the word you just said was just a slip of the tongue." Because the words just now evoked a family unfortunate history, Chen Jiu's eyes were moist, and the tide had not subsided at this time, but she was amused by Liao Shi's words.

Chong Liao Shi blinked a little stubbornly, there were two drops of extremely fine Yingze hanging from the corners of Chen Jiu's eyes, and he smiled and said: "Only when the mouth of the pot is small enough can it be sealed and stored in the mud, which is a major feature of the old Chen family winery in the early years." There is also a little secret to tell you, the Chen family's wine is all skewered on the shelf, and the bottle is placed upside down. In this way, if there is an overflow, it means that the cellar has failed and will be picked out. Therefore, if Uncle Liao buys the old liquor stock solution that claims to be the surviving old liquor of the old Chen family in an unfamiliar wine shop in the future, he must use his eyes more carefully than looking at the mud sealing at the mouth of the pot to see if there are any scratches at the bottom of the pot......"

"Hey......" Before Chen Jiu finished speaking, Liao Shi suddenly sighed and muttered, "Can you stop mentioning the matter of the pot?" ”

Chen Jiu stopped talking. But in Liao Shi's opinion. Her smiling face seemed to be full of sentences, and it spread out right before his eyes, and he couldn't avoid it.

"I suddenly found ......," Liao Shi suddenly said after a moment of silence. …… It only took less than three years for you to learn badly with this kid. ”

Hearing this, Chen Jiufu's supple gaze was slightly condensed, and she turned her head to look at Lin Shan. Then he turned his gaze back to look at Liao Shi, although he did not speak. But his eyes were already full of the word "no".

Silence is better than sound at this point.

Liao Shi looked at Chen Jiu's eyes full of disbelief, of course he knew that with just a few words, it was impossible to destroy the glorious figure that this idiot had been obsessed with for more than ten years. After a brief pause, Liao Shi changed the subject. He also said: "You are in the game, of course you can't check yourself, but I can see it clearly, old man." You've changed a lot from when you first came here three years ago. ”

Chen Jiu didn't ask Liao Shi where she had changed. Instead, he only acknowledged and praised himself in an unquestionable tone: "I have stopped exercising the flattery of flattering guests, and reinvigorated the brewery of the old Chen family, and I have become much stronger than before." ”

Hearing her words, it was Liao Shi's turn to be stunned.

After a while, he finally threw out his finale move, and deliberately said in a cold voice: "You're not afraid, you have trained yourself to be a man's wife, but this madman doesn't want you anymore?" ”

Chen Jiu heard this, and sure enough, her face stiffened slightly, she didn't say anything more to respond to Liao Shi, but turned her head to look at Lin Shan, her eyes were slightly dark, and she seemed to ask silently: Will you not want me?

Lin Shan was also looking at it, her expression was a little distant, Chen Jiu couldn't read a word from it, and she was slightly lonely in her heart.

He had never been very good at pleasing women, and she knew that.

But she knew this, and at this moment, she still very much hoped that he could coax her at this time. Even if after today, he sues her again that it is fake.

After looking at each other like this for a moment, Chen Jiu shifted his gaze from that pair

She couldn't find the slightest hope in Wutan, and when she just moved her eyes to Liao Shi's face that was wrinkled like grapes after the sun, she heard the old man who suddenly became poisonous and said: "Otherwise, follow Uncle Liao, leave here, and quickly find a man from a good family who lives in a small household to marry." If you wait until the pearl is lost, no one will want it. ”

If the age of these two people is pulled back for another twenty years, the first half of Liao Shi's words has an atmosphere of a lewd uncle abducting a cute little sister.

But the actual situation at this time is that the uncle has risen to the level of a thin old man, and the cute little sister is not small at all, and when she hears this kind of words again, her reaction is not cute at all.

"I suddenly discovered that an elder like you is actually not worthy of my service with the sixty-year-old liquor essence of the old Chen family. And, I suddenly wanted to take it back......" Chen Jiu's words came to the last word, and the syllables were deliberately elongated in the throat, with a hint of threat.

After only a moment's hesitation, she let go of a hand holding an old wine jug, and stretched out an index finger to point at Liao Shi's upper abdomen at a distance of three steps. The steady dìng of her fingertips proved that her finger was not random, but really aimed at something. She said leisurely: "Zhongguan or Jianli, choose one." You're so thin, it only takes a punch to spit out what you've drunk, and it doesn't take much effort. ”

"Thief girl, you can't be ready to come for real, are you?" Liao Shi's eyes shrank, and after saying this sentence with a surprised expression, he suddenly laughed easily again, thinking that Chen Jiu was bluffing her, so he shook his head slightly and said: "You will also do that verbally, how can you really do it?" ”

"No, I've been studying for almost a year, and I often try to touch it on Brother Lin, and it's already very accurate to catch holes." While Chen Jiu said this, he glanced at Lin Shan beside him, and saw that the wandering look in his eyes just now had disappeared and was replaced by a light smile.

Although she knew that the smile was not hers, she still felt a warmth in her heart.

If the person I love is not fully in love with me, then I still love him, even if his well-being and happiness have nothing to do with me.

He looked at the man beside him with wide eyes, and fell in love with the smile on his face for a while, and finally moved his gaze to the face of the thin old man with a poisonous tongue. Chen Jiu continued: "However, although I am already very accurate in catching acupoints, Imperial Doctor Wu also said that catching acupoints is a university question, if I change to someone with a very different physique from Brother Lin, and let me catch acupoints again, I will not be accurate." For example, a physique like Uncle Liao. Obviously an adult. The body shape is like a child, it should be a great test for beginners in cave catching, I really want to try it immediately! ”

Liao Shi hurriedly wrapped his arms around his abdomen. Blocking the two acupuncture points that were firmly locked by Chen Jiu's sight, the corners of his slightly drooping lips moved, and finally he didn't say anything in front of Chen Jiu, but turned around and walked out.

Get out the door. Only then did I hear the two words he repeated as if muttering: "Crazy, crazy, crazy......"

Lin Shan looked at Chen Jiu, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "You have played a little too much." ”

Chen Jiu playfully raised the corners of his mouth. smiled: "Actually, Uncle Liao is a very good person, but why are all the rumors I have heard about him belittled or slandered?" ”

"Not everyone can be like you and me, and he is open-mouthed. Some people are not afraid of the pain of cutting their skin with a sword. But he is very concerned about verbal trauma. Being open-mouthed can sometimes hurt you more than being incapable of doing things. Lin Shan sighed with emotion and said, "However, Uncle Liao seems to have taken both sides. In addition to being easy to export and hurt people. He was good at poisoning, and he also injured many people in his early years. Similarly. Not everyone can understand his medicine, and people generally only pay attention to the results of saving lives and helping the wounded. However, ordinary people really don't have the need to study medical technology and pharmacology, which is also human nature! ”

Chen Jiu raised his light and thin eyebrows, and suddenly said, "It seems that Uncle Liao's choice is right." If I were a healer, no matter how many people I had healed, even if I missed once, I would have to overturn all my merits and have a bad name, and I would get tired of it. ”

"For medicine to progress, someone always needs to sacrifice some interests for it." Lin Shan shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "There are almost nothing in this world that can sit back and enjoy it, even if a rich child inherits the family business, if he doesn't continue to work hard to create something new, no matter how big the family business is, it will retreat." It's just that if you choose medical care, the matter of human life and safety becomes complicated. As a healer, many times you will be in an environment where you cannot choose to make choices. ”

"Do you remember the incident more than ten years ago, when Uncle Liao was led to the palace by Uncle Yan and then killed the former Queen Mother?" Chen Jiu looked at the person beside him and said slowly: "After hearing you mention this once, I often think that if it weren't for the incident of the Empress Dowager of the previous dynasty, with Uncle Liao's skills, he might have already been famous in Kyoto." The old scourge in the previous dynasty is still very good at splashing dirty water. ”

"At first glance, it looks like this, but it's not really." Lin Shan smiled indifferently, and then said: "Although the matter of the former Empress Dowager gave Uncle Liao a stained hat, but what people's hearts look like and how history is rewritten depends on the people of the world. You've only heard me say a few words, but you don't know the details. If the Empress Dowager of the previous dynasty had not given Liao Shi a test, the first person to die in his hands might have been the second prince Wang Hong. ”

Chen Jiu was stunned when he heard this.

Lin Shan looked at her and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, he raised his hand and signaled that he would not talk in detail.

After a moment of silence, Lin Shan suddenly called: "Little wine..."

Lowering his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something, Chen Jiu raised his eyelashes when he heard the sound, and saw Lin Shan looking at her and said: "What Uncle Liao said just now is not entirely wrong, you have indeed changed a little recently, rude titles like 'old immortal' and 'old scourge', you never used them before." ”

"I know you'd never say anything like that." Chen Jiu raised his eyebrows, "Are you afraid that I will tire your reputation?" ”

"That's not going to ......," Lin Shan pondered, "First, you are a wine seller on the street of a small town, and you learned these words from the butcher's wife who sells haggis next door to your wine shop." Second, you are not my insider, and even my subordinates will not think about me as you learn. ”

At this time, there was no one else in the room, and Chen Jiu didn't need to maintain the superficial feelings too much, and she was finally able to put the unhappiness in her heart into words.

"Uncle Liao's words are really right, you really dislike me." Chen Jiu said, and also clenched his small fist and slapped Lin Shan's arm, but the strength of the next punch was extremely light, and the beating was a fake style, but the coquettish posture was extremely vivid.

Lin Shan didn't avoid the powder punch at all, and he was a little swaying. I don't know if it's because he smelled too much of the rich aroma of aged wine today, and his physique was drunk with a very fragile constitution that had been consumed by a large dose of drugs for two years, so he had some kind of delusion...... Or, for the first time, did he discover the beauty of the woman next to him who could knock on his heart the most?

However, this beautiful feeling of trance did not last long, and there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Lin Shan's hearing had become morbidly acute due to the damage caused by the drug, and although the footsteps were still dozens of steps away from the door, he could already hear them.

led Yan Xingzhi, the little son of the Yan family, to the door of the dining room. The guards stopped outside the door.

Yan Xingzhi walked in slowly. Holding an envelope in his hand.

"The juniors don't know what to write, and after thinking about it for a long time, they still can't form a sentence......" Yan Xingzhi hesitated and held up the envelope with both hands. Handed it to Lin Shan, "Uncle Lin, can you help the juniors take a look, if there is anything that is not well written, just erase it." ”

"It's a letter from home. There won't be a single word wrong, including the wrong word. Your true family. Be able to read another word from a typo you write. Lin Shan took the envelope, and with the touch of his fingers, he only felt that the letter was too thin. But he didn't say anything about it, just calmly and seriously continued: "You are not a candidate of the Academy of Sciences. I'm not the examiner, so I won't read your letter. ”

With that, he walked over to the spotlessly clean tea table. Flipped the letter to the back, and took out an iron box that he had with him. A fire fold. Open the box and peel out a ball of fire paint from the inside, then blow the fire fold, and burn the fire paint and drop it on the seal of the letter bag.

At this time, Lin Shan asked again: "Do you have a seal that can prove your name?" ”

Lin Shan's action in this set of letters was too decisive and too fast, Yan Xingzhi didn't come back to his senses at all, and he was just stunned when he heard the words.

"Then just press the fingerprints." Lin Shan didn't wait long, and the fire paint hardened as soon as it cooled.

Yan Xingzhi came back to his senses at this time, and did not say anything more, according to the words, he pressed his thumb on the slightly hot fire paint that was still relatively soft.

"Uncle Lin is very busy, but he still has to work for a letter from his juniors, which is really embarrassing for his juniors. If there is an opportunity in the future, the younger generation will definitely come to thank you. On the occasion of parting, Yan Xingzhi took a deep look, and his words were very close to the customary salute of famous families.

"The lightness of a piece of paper, the matter of raising a hand, what can be done." Lin Shan smiled, then pointed to Liao Shi's shabby-looking medicine box on the tea case, and then said: "The pharmacist's decision to take you back to his ancestor mountain gate seems to you to be just a sentence and a decision, but what he has to face is double pressure and danger. You also have to cherish yourself along the way. ”

"Thank you Uncle Lin for your kind words, and the younger generation will remember it." Yan Xingzhi waved his hand again, and then he was about to carry the strap of the medicine box.

At this time, Chen Jiu on the side suddenly called "Wait a minute", and then trotted to the back hall. After a few moments, she trotted all the way back, and the gray earthenware flask in her hand was gone, but there was an old gourd hollowed out and a flask.

"It's hard to put this old wine when the mud is opened, bring it to the pharmacist, he likes this." Chen Jiu handed out the old gourd, and when Yan Xingzhi took it, she picked up the blanket hanging on her shoulder, handed it over and said: "This is some of the dried meat I made, all of which have been marinated with good spices, and it is best to go down the throat with the wine." ”

"Thank you...... Aunt ......" Yan Xingzhi happily took the old gourd, and almost brought out the word "aunt", and when he slipped out of the rhyme, he was forced to twist it into a "aunt" word, and the sense of language was a little strange.

Although Yan Xingzhi is extremely young, a person like him who is relatively shallow in the world will not be accustomed to thinking about some trivial possibilities, but can look directly at the essence of the event. Three years ago, he followed Liao Shizhong in Lin Shan's northbound team, and along the way, he saw how the woman named Chen Jiu in front of him took care of Lin Shan.

Even if Lin Shan has not made any commitment to aged wine for some reason, in Yan Xingzhi's view, whether or not to say a certain sentence at this time will not constitute a changeable interference in whether something can be achieved or not.

However, Tong Guò got along with each other in the past three years in the Northland, although Yan Xingzhi admired Lin Shan's personality very much, but this man who was older than him had no kinship with the Yan family after all, and he still needed to guard the humility of his juniors, so even if he decided in his heart about it, before Lin Shan himself officially spoke, he was not good at saying anything.

Chen Jiu listened to Yan Xingzhi's slightly strange tone, and misunderstood his mood a little, as if he suddenly remembered something, he took out a brocade bag from behind his back, shook it slightly, and handed it over. said with a smile: "Of course, we can't forget the Yan family's little master's favorite peach flesh and preserved fruit." It's just that the vegetables and fruits here are sold very expensive, and there is no silver to buy, so I only made these four taels of preserved fruits, but it is not a small family of wine aunts. ”

Lin Shan said softly on the side: "The road is far away, and there is no light burden, so I can't bring more." ”

At this time, Yan Xingzhi's eyebrows were already trembling slightly, and his eyes were flooded with a layer of moisture. Except for the two people who said goodbye to him in front of him, during the three years he stayed in the Northland. In both ways, the care for him has never been neglected. At this time, gratitude came to his heart, making his chest almost full; It's also because he finally couldn't help but say that......

Rules, Sven ...... Sometimes it's time to fuck ......

Yan Xingzhi suddenly rushed out of the door......

Then two words came from the back of his old gourd flipping on his left side and the old gourd jumping on his right side......

"Mr. Lin. Stay with her! ”

"You are together, and when the kid comes to repay the favor another day, you don't have to go to two places!"

Both people in the room were stunned.

Yan Xingzhi outside the door didn't slow down until he ran a long way. Then he looked back and frowned. The smile on his face was bright.

Seeing the face that was a little blurred because of the distance, I could clearly feel the sunny sky in the smile, and the old wine, who had been just standing in the house and watching the gifts, suddenly felt like a clear sky. From old to young, as well as those generals who are more familiar with this side from the outside to the inside. All of them showed some kind of expectation and advance wishes, and they were only short of the final choice of the people around them.

Chen Jiu looked at Lin Shan beside him, and saw him looking out of the door somewhere. His gaze still fell on the path Yan Xingzhi ran away, silent, as if he was in a trance.

She looked at him thoughtfully. This situation made her almost unable to hold back and ask him if she was thinking about the Jian Yì that the young master of the Yan family seemed to reveal with all his strength when he left.

But she moved her lips and hesitated for a moment, but finally stopped the thought.

Because she cherished the man in front of her, including every moment of standing side by side with him, sitting opposite him, looking at each other, and talking together, she set up several rules of self-discipline for herself very early, among which one of the most frequently used was not to interrupt the man's silent thinking.

Lin Shan quickly detached his spirit from that short-term thought, after all, Yan Xingzhi's words only touched him slightly, and it didn't make much of a wave in his heart.

Seeing Chen Jiu's waiting gaze, he just said gently, "Do you want to send them off?" ”

Chen Jiu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said, "I won't go, I said those disrespectful words to Uncle Liao just now, he should be a little annoying to me." ”

Lin Shan held a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said slowly: "I have seen many doctors, and there are very few people like him who have been persevering for one thing for several years, so he is actually an extremely difficult person to annoy. ”

Chen Jiu suddenly asked curiously: "You don't bother such a persevering person, even if he has shortcomings that are several times more hateful than the precious character of perseverance, right?" ”

"Yes......" Lin Shan replied with one word, and he seemed to realize that Chen Jiu's question might contain the storage of two people. One is Liao Shi, and the other is herself.

There was no more thoughtful look on his face, but there was silence.

Chen Jiu sighed softly, his eyes inadvertently swept over the letter with fire paint on the tea case, and then remembered the location next to the letter, and put aside Liao Shi's medicine box, which was shabby on the outside but extremely rich and neat inside.

"Actually, you should send him off." After a moment's hesitation, she spoke again, already saying something else, "The Medicine Master never leaves his box behind, he's prompting you to send him." ”

"No, he's prompting Yan Xingzhi." Lin Shan said with an indifferent smile, "If he takes the medicine box first, the young master of the Yan family is afraid that he will go crazy and look for him." In a hurry, it is inevitable that something will be missed, such as losing your family letters, losing your 50-year-old wine puree. ”

Chen Jiu smiled: "You mean that the pharmacist is waiting for his little attendant medicine boy to sweep the field for him?" ”

Lin Shan said with a smile: "He still knows how to use people." ”

Chen Jiu gradually smiled on his face, and said calmly: "Then you really don't plan to send him?" ”

"No, no." Lin Shan sat down beside the tea table.

"You don't go...... Chen Jiu sat down on the chair on the other side of the tea table without the slightest hesitation, "...... Then I won't go. ”

Lin Shan glanced at Chen Jiu deeply and did not speak.
