When the shopkeeper brought the last dish, the first few dishes had already been eaten by us.

The shopkeeper put the stewed beef in his hand on the wooden table, looked at us with a concerned face and asked, "A few guest officers, are you still satisfied with the food in our small shop?" ”

"Uh-huh......." Listening to his question, a few of us didn't have time to answer, and nodded randomly.

The shopkeeper smiled slightly, looked at us and said, "Although a few guest officers eat here, the small ones won't bother!" With that, he turned around and left.

Watching his departing back, we didn't have time to speak, we were all eating the meal in front of us.

After a while, the whole table of food was eaten clean by us, Situ Qing touched his stomach, and said with satisfaction: "Not to mention, the food in this restaurant is really good." ”

"Well, these dishes are better than I've ever eaten in the palace!" The princess echoed as she raised her hand and pointed to a few of the empty plates.

I stretched and looked at the crowd and said, "It would be nice to have another nap here." ”

When Situ Hong and Yuqiong heard this, they immediately nodded their heads.

Han Sheng looked at the bustling diners in the lobby, turned his head to look at me and said, "Master Bi, why don't we stay in this town for the night tonight?"

"Brother Han, if we stay in this town overnight, won't we be delayed?" I looked at him and asked.

"It doesn't matter." Han Sheng looked at me and replied: "This town is already under the jurisdiction of the territory of Qizhou, and it can be regarded as Qizhou, which is the first state of Bi Gongzi's visit to the ten states. If you stay here, you can also check out the local customs. ”

When I heard it, I was immediately overjoyed, "What Brother Han said is reasonable, since the emperor is going to visit the ten states, let's start from here!" ”

"Uh-huh." Situ Hong and Yuqiong beside me all nodded when they heard me say this.

Since we have finished eating, we must stay in this restaurant any longer, Situ Qing shouted to the shopkeeper and said that he wanted to settle the bill, and the shopkeeper ran over when he heard the rumors, and then settled the accounts on the empty plates on the table for a while, a total of one or two or three coins of silver.

Not to mention, this restaurant not only has good food. The price is also quite fair.

Situ Qing didn't say a word, took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the shopkeeper. instructed him to take the rest of the silver as a reward, and the shopkeeper suddenly thanked him for his kindness when he heard this.

When we saw that we had paid for the meal, we got up and left, and the shopkeeper got the benefit. Graciously sent us out the door. Then he let the horse boy lead the carriage. In this way, a few of us got into the car, and Han Sheng drove away from the restaurant in a carriage.

A few of us just sat in the carriage and looked through the small window, and Han Sheng drove the carriage along this street market, which was not very prosperous but not very sparse. There were people all looking at the shops and shops along the street, and it was clear from the way they looked at them that they were curious about who was in the carriage.

After a while, Han Sheng grabbed the carriage, turned to us and said, "Master Bi, let's stay here tonight!" ”

Listening to his words, I looked over, and saw the carriage stopped in front of a small-looking inn, which was clean and neat, as simple as an ordinary peasant house, with a big red lantern hanging on the wooden post in front of the door, and a not very large cloth banner fluttering on it, on which were written in thick ink three large characters - cyclamen.

"The guest is a natural dwelling, and the guest is actually a guest in the sky!" Looking at the three big characters in front of me, I couldn't help but think of a couplet written in a book I had read before, and I couldn't help muttering to myself.

"Husband, what are you talking about?" Situ Hong, who was beside me, listened to my murmuring and couldn't help but look at me curiously and asked.

"Wife, it's nothing, I just remembered a couplet I saw before!" I smiled at her and said casually.

"Couplet?" Situ Hong looked at me puzzled.

I smiled and said the couplet again, Situ Hong listened to the couplet I said, and couldn't help but say hello for a while, even Yuqiong and the princess on the side also said yes.

"Okay...... it's nice to have friends from afar!" Just when a few people were gossiping, a voice came from the inn, and along with the voice was a man in a white robe, with a handsome appearance, holding a white paper fan in his hand, looking like a suave son, looking at him, I couldn't help but be stunned, saying that the ancient sons liked to wear white clothes?

A few of us rushed down from the carriage, and the young man stepped forward to look at a few of us, and then bowed to me and said, "This brother, but ...... Bi Gongzi from the capital?" ”

Listening to his words, I couldn't help but be stunned, Situ Hong and Han Sheng were also on guard, I looked at him vigilantly and asked, "How do you know Brother Tai?" ”

"Hehehehe...... the new champion appointed by the saint, no one in the capital knows, let alone the matter of the champion visiting the ten states?" The white-robed man smiled at me and said, "This town is a necessary place to leave the capital to visit the ten states, how can you not meet Bi Gongzi!" ”

"Then how do you know that I am the new champion Bi Gongzi you said?" I looked at him and continued.

The white-robed man lightly fanned the paper fan in his hand a few times, looked at me and said: "The guest is a natural residence, and he is actually a guest in the sky, and he even knows the origin of the signboard of this inn, who is it not Bi Gongzi?" ”

I couldn't help but sweat when I heard his words, I went away, am I lying down? How can you casually say two lines of poetry and be recognized by others? Could it be that I'm really famous now?

The white-robed man was stunned when he saw me, and continued to laugh and said, "I can't hide it, it's actually the shopkeeper Lu of the Cyclamen Fang who took care of it. ”

"Cyclamen? Lv shopkeeper? Listening to his words, I muttered, how could these two names be so familiar?

Han Sheng on the side listened to the white-robed man's words, and couldn't help but ask, "The cyclamen fang that Gongzi said is the largest inn in the capital?" And that Lu shopkeeper, but Lu Lian, the shopkeeper of this cyclamen? ”

"Exactly!" The white-robed man nodded with a smile on his face.

When Han Sheng said this, I immediately remembered, isn't that Lu Lianzhi the old man who wears a square hat and a gray coat and has a somewhat kind face?

The white-robed man continued: "Bi Gongzi, this cyclamen residence is actually a branch opened by the shopkeeper Lu, and the shopkeeper Lu has branches in various states. ”

When I heard this, I was immediately overjoyed, "How can this make the next group of people embarrassed!" ”

"Bi Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, this time Bi Gongzi's visit to ten states is not only ordered by the emperor, but also the blessing of the people, living in a hotel is just a trivial matter, why worry about it!" The white-robed man gestured to us as he spoke, "A few please, please!" ”

The carriage had already been led to the backyard by a horse boy, and we did not hesitate, but followed the white-robed man into the inn.

Although this inn looks like a farmhouse from the outside, but in fact the interior decoration is very warm, there is really a feeling of home, I can't help but have an illusion of being in the Bifu, the footsteps of the man in the white robe did not stop, and led us straight to the guest room on the second floor.

There were six of us in total, so the man in the white robe arranged three rooms for us, one for me and Situ Hong, one for Yuqiong and the princess, one for Situ Qing and Han Sheng, and after arranging it, the man in the white robe said with a smile on his face and said to me that there was dinner in this inn, and we didn't have to go out to eat, and after I thanked him, the man turned around and went downstairs by himself.

As soon as the white-robed man left, I couldn't help but flash into Han Sheng's guest room, looked at Han Sheng and asked, "Brother Han, do you believe what he said?" ”

Han Sheng looked at me, thought for a moment, and nodded, "What he said is true. ”

"He's just talking nonsense here, and there is no evidence, how can he say it's true?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, Master Bi, although I am a guard in the interior, I have also heard of the big and small things in the capital, and that Lu Lianzhi is definitely a person who sits on his business, not a profiteer." Han Sheng nodded and replied.

"I mean, is this man in a white robe really like he said, was ordered by the shopkeeper Lu, or did he claim it on his own, and I don't think he is a shopkeeper!" I said analytically.

Han Sheng smiled faintly when he heard my words, "Bi Gongzi should have heard the phrase 'people should not be good-looking', right?!" ”

"What does Brother Han mean ......?"

"Don't worry, Bi Gongzi, I will pay attention to his identity." Han Sheng looked at me and nodded.

"Okay, then I'll bother Brother Han!" I thanked him.
