On the second floor of a tavern, by the window, a man and a woman sat opposite, with a pot of wine and a few dishes on the table.

The man is handsome and considerate, and the woman is beautiful, but there is a lack of interest.

"Didn't you say it casually, why did you really come to drink?" Ami propped her chin and muttered.

Changli poured her a glass of wine and asked rhetorically, "When did I lie to you?" ”

Ami brought the cup to her lips and took a sip, and her mouth was instantly filled with the sour and rich taste of wine, she couldn't help frowning fiercely, and quickly poured a cup of tea with her teeth bared and drank it all.

She couldn't help but smack her tongue, could it be that these modern wines that sell for sky-high prices taste like this?

Changli looked at her actions, and his eyes were dyed with a slight smile, "It seems that Yu'er is not used to drinking." ”

As he spoke, he tilted his head to look at the crowd below.

After a while, he put down his glass and said thoughtfully, "Here we are." ”

When Ami heard this, she subconsciously leaned her head and glanced down, but she didn't find anything abnormal, and she didn't know who he was referring to.

Just as he was about to ask a few questions, Changli stood up and walked down with his legs raised.

Ami didn't know why, so she had to follow first.

A few people went downstairs and walked along the street.

At this time, two women walked out of a silk cloth shop in front of them.

The woman who walked in front of her, with a middle-upper posture, but because of the charm of the eyebrows at the corners of her eyes, she added a little charm, and the clothes on her body were very simple, but the materials were extraordinary, and she must also be a family with a background.

The little girl who followed behind, who looked well-behaved and carried some satin cloth in her hand, should be the accompanying maid.

The woman in front walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned around and reached out to play with the things that the little girl was carrying, then frowned, and looked up at the little girl, "Huh? Did the rose-red peony-patterned satin I choose just now fall into the store? You hurry up and take a look. ”

When the little girl heard this, she looked down, and immediately turned around and entered the store again, "Slave maid, let's take a look." ”

The woman walked down the steps in front of the store, looking around and waiting for the little girl to come out.

Changli and his party were about to pass by the silk shop, but they didn't notice the woman standing at the door.

Ami raised her head slightly, walked around and took a look, but her shoulder was suddenly bumped, her body involuntarily leaned back, and then her waist was supported by a hand.

"Oops! This girl, I'm sorry, I'm a little distracted, bumping into the girl, and making a compensatory to the girl. ”

Ami listened to the voice, raised her eyes and looked over, and saw a woman standing in front of her, her head hanging slightly.

She looked the woman up and down with her eyebrows twisted, and before she could speak, she heard the sound of a long departure in her ears.

"Yu'er, are you okay?"

Ami shook her head slightly, glanced at the woman again, and continued to walk forward, "It's okay. ”

Behind him, a little girl's voice came, "Madam, I've found it." ”

"Well, let's go back then."

Ami turned her head slightly, listened to the conversation between the master and servant, and clenched her hands tighter.

In the wing room of the Huainan Palace, Ami spread out her palm, and the palm of her hand was a small crumpled note.

"That woman is Concubine Shen?"

Changli nodded, reached out and took the note.

"Sure enough, she looks charming, no wonder King Huainan wants to pet him."

Changli unfolded the note, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Good show, it's about to start." ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the censer, put the note in, and in a few moments it was reduced to ashes.

Ami was a little puzzled, "What's the show?" ”

"You'll know when the time comes," Changli said, turning his head to look at Ami again, "I'll be free tomorrow, let's go to Nanwang Mountain again, if you don't go, I'm afraid you won't be able to go." ”

Ami rolled her eyes, "If you don't say it, you won't say it, God will talk all day long." ”

Early the next morning, before it was dawn, Ami washed up, and then went out of the wing, and I don't know where I went, which made Changli a little surprised.

About half an hour later, Ami came in from outside carrying a food box.

Chang Li's eyes lit up slightly, "You disappeared early in the morning, it turned out that you went to prepare breakfast for this king?" ”

Ami snorted disdainfully, "I really want to be beautiful!" If you're ready, go ahead so that the food doesn't get cold later. ”

Changli was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and suddenly understood what Ami wanted to do, and instantly his face became a little stinky, and he walked outside the door with his feet raised, and shouted, "Liuyun, go!" ”

Liuyun was waiting in the courtyard, and when he heard Chang Li's slightly unhappy drink, he couldn't help but be startled, and he didn't know what he had done wrong.

"Yes, my subordinates will go and prepare," he replied, and immediately walked out quickly.

In the small bamboo house in the south of the mountain, a little old man was sitting at the wooden table, drinking a little wine, when he suddenly heard a sound of feet stepping on the branches and leaves at the door.

He raised his eyes and looked at the three people standing at the door, sneered, turned his back again, picked up the wine jug, and began to chase people away, "Why are you here again?" I don't have any medicine here, you can go back. ”

"Tut-tut, it's the first time I've seen someone drink, and I don't even have a snack to eat."

The little old man pursed his lips and ignored him.

Ami carried the food box, approached the old man, opened the lid of the food box, and the fragrance instantly wafted out from inside.

The little old man smelled the fragrance, his hand holding the wine jug paused, and his eyes unconsciously glanced at the food box behind him.

Ami glanced at the crack and closed the lid of the box, "These are the best snacks in my hometown, do you want to try them, sir?" ”

The little old man hesitated, pondered for a moment, turned around, and looked reluctant, "Hey...... Since everything has been done, the old man ...... I can't take away your kindness. ”

As he spoke, he reached out and was about to take the food box, but Ami suddenly took the food box away, causing him to pounce.

The little old man frowned, a little displeased, "Oh, I said that you girl, you have said that you still have regrets for me?" ”

"I just have a small condition," Ami looked at him, "sir, you are secluded and detached, and you will definitely not eat white food!" ”

The little old man was anxious, "Oh, I know, I know, isn't it just to give you some medicine, it's easy to say!" ”

Ami put the food box on the table and asked, "What's that......?" When can I be given it? ”

The little old man replied impatiently while opening the food box and taking out the side dishes inside, "What's the hurry!" Can the old man lie to you? ”

There are four small dishes in the food box, all of which are made in modern ways, and the people here must have never seen these methods.

The four dishes were neatly placed on the table, and for a while the courtyard was full of aroma, the little old man leaned down and lay on the table, sniffed hard, and couldn't hide his joy, even the two Changli who were waiting at the door couldn't help but turn their heads to look at this side.

"You pea, good, good! You can still do that...... Well! This meat is delicious! The little old man's eyes lit up, and he feasted so much that he couldn't even care about the flask at hand.

He ate for a while, then suddenly stopped, thought for a moment, and looked at Ami, "That's it, old man...... Belch...... I'll make another deal with you. ”

"What deal?"

"For ordinary scars, a bottle of medicine is enough, old man...... Five bottles for you! He stretched out a five in some pain.

Ami raised an eyebrow, "But? ”

"Uh...... But...... You have to give these recipes to the old man. ”

Ami gently hooked the corners of her lips, thinking to herself, this old man is really calculating, the recipe is enough for him to eat for a lifetime, five bottles of medicine...... At most, five scars will be cured.

Seeing her chuckling like this, the little old man shook his eyebrows, thinking that she definitely didn't plan to agree, his heart was crossed, and he was just about to increase the size, but he saw Ami waving his hand, "Okay, okay, five bottles are five bottles, when will you give it to me?" ”

The little old man breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "This ...... Five bottles is not a small amount, and the old man has to rematch it. ”

Ami was shocked, could it be that five bottles is also a large number? This old man is also picking!

"Okay, I'll come back in a few days, and then you give me the medicine and I'll give you the recipe."

As she spoke, she immediately turned around and walked outside.

The little old man looked at her back and waved his hand with a smile, "Hey~ Okay, do as you say!" ”

On the way down the mountain, Ami couldn't help but complain.

"If you want me to say, this play is really tiring, that little old man looks like a person who can mix medicine, he is good at drinking and lustful, and he is greedy for cheap, it's really not good, I can deal with it if I go back to Xiao Ce to get some medicine, I don't believe it, the dignified poison doctor is not even as good as a little old man!"

"Yu'er seems to have a lot of trust in this Xiao Ce."

Ami turned her head and looked at Chang Li, inexplicably feeling that he seemed to be a little unhappy.

She smacked her lips, "It's okay, it's more reliable than this little old man anyway." ”

"Speaking of which, for so long, this king still doesn't know that this king's princess has such good cooking skills."

"Where can I be used for the food and clothing that the prince has every day?" Hearing the ridicule in his words, Ami was merciless.

"I'm used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and sometimes I want to taste the taste of light side dishes."

"The prince said a word, why did you deliberately say this in front of me, Liuyun, you said yes."

Liuyun, who was suddenly mentioned, was stunned, and then smiled bitterly, no matter how you answer, you will offend one party.

He hesitated for a long time, and he didn't say why.

Ami glanced back at him, but she was even more proud, "Look! Streaming clouds are all defaulted. ”

Liuyun looked at Ami's back in surprise and shook his head bitterly.

Early the next morning, the people in the Huainan palace were busy.

Although the family banquet was held in the evening, there would not be too many people present, but according to Concubine Shen's status in this palace, no one dared to slack off.

Until the evening, the house did not have a moment of leisure, but became more and more busy.

Seeing that it was almost dark, Changli and a few people set off for the main hall of the palace.

In today's hall, people come and go, the lights are bright, the maids and servants in the house are waiting on the side, waiting to be sent, and there are musicians playing music on the side of the hall.

After the few people arrived, they found a place to sit down under the guidance of a maid.

The guests in the house are basically the subordinates and cronies of the King of Huainan, and they are all very lively, and occasionally someone comes to say hello twice, but in most cases, several people are waiting quietly.

After a while, the number of people in the temple became more and more, and everyone sat at the table and greeted each other.

"The king has arrived—"

With this announcement, the main hall fell silent, and the people present looked at the door one after another, stood up, and several people from Changli also stood up.

"Greetings to the King—"

In the worship of the courtiers and cronies, King Huainan stepped into the hall with a smile on his face, and on both sides behind him, one was the concubine Shen Fang who had met on the street that day, and the other was a soft and dignified woman, who should be the concubine.

After a few people came in, they went straight to the upper seat.

King Huainan sat down on the main seat, while Concubine Shen and Concubine Niangniang sat on both sides.

King Huainan waved his hand heartily, "Everyone sit down!" Those who came today are all their own people, so there is no need to be polite. ”

When they heard this, they sat down one after another.

"Two days ago, the king's palace welcomed a distinguished guest." King Huainan said, turning his gaze to Changli and the others, "Your Majesty's fifth prince, Prince Rui came to Huainan a few days ago, no, it just happened to coincide with the birthday of this king's side concubine, and I want this king to see, this king's side concubine is really blessed." ”

When Changli heard this, he also raised his head and looked back, "The king laughed, Changli came here unexpectedly, just in a hurry, the side concubine Niangniang is a person with deep blessings, but Changli has some joy." ”

"It turned out to be Lord Rui, no wonder I felt that my eyes were raw when I came in just now, and I didn't look like a layman." At this time, a guest interjected.

"I have long heard that His Majesty's five sons are extraordinary, and when I see them today, they really live up to their reputation."

King Huainan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he listened to the conversation below, "Hahaha...... It seems that you are more interested in Lord Rui than this king! ”

There was a lively scene in the hall, and outside the hall, Vice General Lin was on duty, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing from the corner of his eye.

He turned his head, but the black shadow was gone, he twisted his eyebrows, and immediately chased after him......
