Chang'an, Li Xi's mansion.

Lianlian is the only one in the small side room in the middle of the room, the door is closed, the courtyard is quiet, only the faint sound of reading comes from the study, Li Xi likes to be quiet when he reads, and the other people in the house are naturally happy to find a place to chat for a while, just to make room for Li Xi to make a clean environment.

At this time, Lianlian is walking the pen and writing, the words are like falling lotus, the font is graceful and steep, and it has a unique style.

Even Miao Miao, who has the best relationship with her in Pingyue, only knows that she is the same as herself, she was abducted and sold from a very young age, not to mention literacy, she has never seen what books are like since she was a child, as for Li Yifeng and Geng Xin, they both picked Lianlian's well-behaved and clever, plus she is young but calm, and she is also good-looking, so they bought her back to be a serving girl, but they don't know at all that Lianlian, who is only fourteen years old this year, actually writes a good hand.

"Yesterday, I got up early in the morning, read, and at noon, I had a secret conversation with Li Yifeng, as if I was going to say that I was going to rise to the top, and in the evening, I drank three cups, slept, and lived in peace. If you are good, you don't remember it. ”

After a simple four-line word, she skillfully picked up the paper and blew it, paused for a moment, waited for the ink to be half dry, then carefully folded and put it away in her sleeve, and then put the paper, ink, pen, inkstone and other objects back into a tray.

He turned around and opened the door, glanced around the courtyard, and saw that there was no one, so he turned around and took the tray, and walked straight to the side of a room that Li Yifeng usually used to deal with pen and ink affairs.

Then she walked to the main hall, sure enough, the furnace water was boiling, and she neatly put the tea leaves, picked up the teapot, and shook her hands, and the fragrance of tea suddenly floated.

A bowl of rich tea soup was brewed, she took the tray and walked slowly to the door of Li Xi's study, and saw that Li Xi was reciting with her eyes closed, maybe she smelled the fragrance of tea, Li Xi sniffed and stopped the endorsement.

Li Xi opened her eyes and saw Lianlian holding a tea cup in her hand, standing at the door shyly and timidly, as if she didn't know whether to disturb herself, so she smiled and beckoned to her, "Come, come in, it's so fragrant tea, I'm just thirsty!" ”

Lian Lian smiled shyly and timidly, went in and put down the teacup, lowered her head, and blushed before she could say a word, "Be careful, it's a little hot." Then he bowed his head and exited the door.

Li Xi smiled, picked up the teacup and sipped while blowing, how could she feel in her heart, it seemed that since she hugged this little girl once when she was assassinated, she suddenly became more shy than before?

But she really has to use it very much, and Miao Miao is also very good, but she is not childish, and there are some children with surnames, who are greedy for fun and lazy to sleep...... Of course, this makes her cuter than Lianlian, but don't expect her to remember this kind of thing that she remembers to make a cup of tea when she listens to her reading a book.

He sighed at Lianlian's goodness here, but he didn't know that after coming out of his study, Lianlian cleaned up, and then went straight to the back door of the house.

The house that Li Yifeng prepared for Li Xi was in front of a big alley, but the small door behind it was a little remote, but it was a small alley where ordinary businessmen and ordinary people lived.

There are children running around the street in Baiyueli, some old women are sitting at the door while basking in the sun and shouting to discipline the children, and some are simply washing clothes in the alley outside the door, and the dirty water is just splashed with their hands.

Of course, small alleys like this are also indispensable for small traders and hawkers.

When Lianlian walked to the back door, a cart selling crispy dates was surrounded by a group of children, the children were naughty, although they pestered the adults in the family to buy dates to eat, but they still inevitably had to twist one and stuff it into their mouths, so anxious that the vendor seemed to be something, "I can't eat, I can't eat, three dollars and two catties of things, you eat so easily, don't I want to pay for death!" ”

While shouting, reaching out to stop the children's hands, he was still busy weighing the scales, and in the late autumn season, he was so busy that his forehead was oozing sweat.

When his business was finished, he slowly pushed the cart to this side, and when he saw Lianlian standing at the door, he asked with a smile: "This young lady, do you want to buy some dates?" Hedong's jujubes, you taste one, it's not sweet, it's not crispy, it's not money! ”

Lian Lian smiled, "It's not bad to look at, let's have two catties!" ”

When the peddler heard this, he happily agreed, and then began to weigh the dates, and Lianlian naturally had to walk over and pick and choose, and from time to time he picked out a few dates that the vendor had picked up and threw them back to his cart.

Then, after passing the scales, Lian Lian counted three copper coins and gave him three copper coins, then pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wrapped the dates, turned around and went home, and the peddler finished the business, and immediately took the cloth and covered the cart, pushed the cart, and quickly went out of the alley.

When Lianlian washed the dates with water and put them in a crystal plate and returned to the main hall in front, Li Xi was sitting opposite Li Yifeng.

Li Yifeng was saying, "It's been ten days in a row, and that old man Gao is really ruthless, he actually refuses to see his subordinates once, I'm afraid there is little hope for this matter......"

Seeing Lianlian coming in, the two of them didn't have the slightest intention of evading it, and Li Yifeng also said that he was his.

But Lianlian was interested, and immediately came in and showed a sweet smile at Li Xi, afraid that the handkerchief would put it on the small table between Li Xi and Li Yifeng, and said: "The maid heard that the jujube was shouting outside again, so she thought that it was the time when the jujube came down, and she happened to eat a crispy sweet, so she went to the back door to buy two catties, Gongzi, Mr. Li, you can try it." ”

Li Xi smiled and nodded, "Okay", and picked up one and handed it to Li Yifeng, he touched another one and took a bite, his eyebrows fluttered, obviously crisp and sweet, Lianlian saw it, so she pursed her lips and bowed her head and retreated.

Here, Li Yifeng ate a date, and then continued: "But there is a little progress, that is, the last three gifts I have brought over, they have accepted them in the house, although they are not valuable, but they have not completely refuted the face." It's just, what does this old man mean? Receive a gift, but don't see me? ”

Li Xi scratched his brows, he also had a big head in this regard.

He couldn't help but say, "Perhaps, their father and son actually don't want to get into trouble?" ”

Li Yifeng nodded when he heard this, "I'm afraid there is only one explanation." If you want to talk purely about prestige and status, how can he meet him for such an earnest visit, even if he refuses to invite his subordinates immediately, it is nothing, and he refuses to even meet like this...... The subordinates think, maybe when you give the official, their attitude will be loosened? ”

Li Xi nodded, waved his hand and said, "Regardless of him, you have been there ten times in a row, but he has not seen him once, and from tomorrow, there is no need to go again." ”

Li Yifeng nodded when he heard this, thought about it, and was about to tell Li Xi about the situation when he came back just now, but he suddenly heard Xiao Li's voice outside, and said in a Henan dialect: "Son, Master Li is visiting in person." ”

Li Xi and Li Yifeng glanced at each other when they heard this, and the two of them stood up on their front and back feet to welcome the door, but saw that Li Shizhi had already entered the courtyard by himself, and when he saw Li Xi, he laughed, and without waiting for Li Xi to give up, he quickly walked over and took Li Xi's hand, and said, "Zi said, come with me, go, drink!" ”

Since the family banquet at his house, the two have met three times, twice when he came here, and once when Li Xi took the initiative to visit Li Shizhi's wife, which can be regarded as completing the brotherly etiquette, but two of these three meetings were drinking, although Li Xi drank well, he also felt a little unbearable.

At this time, hearing him roaring urgently, and he was about to pull himself to drink, Li Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Brother Shizhi, you are a dignified imperial doctor, even if you are on duty, it is not good to say that you are drinking, right?" Aren't you afraid that it will reach your majesty's ears and cause you trouble? Besides, if this is said, I'm afraid it's not very good! ”

Li Shizhi waved his hand when he heard this, but he just dragged Li Xi out, and said as he walked: "During the period of duty, I am upright and upright, inspecting the world for Your Majesty, and correcting hundreds of officials, this is worth drinking a few glasses of wine, but even Your Majesty won't say anything, go, go, go!" If it's too late, you'll be punished! ”

Li Xi was helplessly dragged out of the door by him, and said with a wry smile: "Anyway, you have to tell me where you are going, right?" ”

Li Shizhi said: "Today is Yuzhen Dao Chang Dong, He Laoxian, Lao Zhang, hey, most of you have seen it, in short, it is a few of us, no outsiders, you can drink happily!" ”

The carriage was sparkling, and the two of them were chatting on the carriage, Li Xi just felt that the carriage was not slow, but Rao was like this, and he didn't know how many turns he had turned, and he ran out for half an hour before he finally stopped.

Li Xi got out of the carriage and looked up, and there was a majestic and elegant Taoist temple in front of him.

There is a plain and elegant wooden plaque hanging on it, small, but it has a charm, it is written with the words "Yuzhen Annex", the handwriting is strong, dignified and elegant. There is also a wooden sign hanging on the side next to the door, with nine small characters written on it: Shangqing Xuandu Dadong Three Scenery Division. It is the same person's handwriting as the plaque above.

Seeing this plaque and honorific title, Li Xi knew that this was probably the annex where Princess Yuzhen practiced.
