Duanmu Ci promised to introduce Confucius to me and my "righteous brother" in three days, and said that there are several disciples of Confucius's sect who are about the same age as me who are quite talented, and they can debate and discuss with me at that time.

I rejoiced at the moment and thanked me again.

Then, I told Duanmu Ci about Master Cai, and the stories I heard about them when I was a child, and he couldn't help but ask me to tell me a lot about how they traveled around the world with Confucius.

Half an hour later, Si'er and Mayyang came back with the herbs wrapped in sackcloth. I asked the two of them to draw water and cut the medicine, and I demonstrated the decoction method of the medicinal soup and the cooking method of the medicinal porridge with Yan Hui's wife.

After that, Yan Hui, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally woke up. I took the opportunity to put a few ginseng whiskers in his mouth, fed him a few mouthfuls of medicinal porridge, and drank a few mouthfuls of medicinal soup.

Soon, Yan Hui fell asleep again. But at this time, his face was much softener than before, and his pulse had improved.

At sunset, Duanmu Ci and I said goodbye to the Yan family's mother and son, and the two agreed to meet at his mansion three days later.

When I got home, the feeding time had already passed. But in the small courtyard, Wuxian, Ah Yu, Fish Woman, and the Swordsman Capital are still waiting for us to have a meal together. Today is the first day after I and Wuxian arrived in Lu Kingdom, the dinner prepared by the fish woman was surprisingly rich, and Ah Yu specially bought two large jars of cinnamon wine from the tavern outside, saying that he wanted to make up for the wedding wine he owed me and Wuxian.

Ah Yu kills people cleanly, but the amount of alcohol and the quality of wine are worse than that of the fish woman. After three bowls of cinnamon wine, his tongue began to knot, and when the fifth bowl was served, the whole person went crazy. He is always respectful when he talks to Wuxian on weekdays, but at this time, with the strength of wine, he actually holds the wine jar with one hand and hooks Wuxian's neck with the other hand to fight with him.

The fish woman was frightened by his actions for nine days, but Wuxian didn't care at all, and picked up a wine jar and hit it on Ah Yu's jar.

Two men raised their heads and drank wine in large gulps, and Si'er and I knocked on the food table with bamboo chopsticks and shouted vigorously to cheer.

In the end, the "arrogant" Ah Yu lay on the ground with a bang. After a while, he began to snore like thunder.

Wuxian put down the wine jar and waved his hand to the fish woman with a smile: "Help him down, take good care of him at night." ”

"No!" The fish woman kowtowed and hurried to help the fish.

"I'll help her." Si'er glanced at me, and together with the swordsman leader, he helped the fish woman carry the unconscious Ah Yu down.

"Are you okay?" I walked over to Shirtless and pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the remaining liquor from his face.

After leaving the Jin Kingdom for a long time, he is less and less like Zhao Wuxian, who is courteous and polite in Xinjiang City. He drinks like a wandering ranger, and like a swordsman who is happy to take revenge, what kind of heart is hidden under his layers of masks?

"It's not good, I'm dizzy." The corners of Wuxian's mouth hooked, and his two hands were put on my shoulders, and the whole person half pounced.

"It's so heavy-" I was pressed back a few steps by him before I could barely stand still, "You make trouble with me again, you're not drunk at all......"

"Who said I wasn't drunk, you sniff." He smiled and raised his head and took a bite on the tip of my nose, "Does it smell like cinnamon?" I've drunk half a jar. ”

"Smoked, drunkard." I smiled and turned around and put his hands around my neck, "Let's go, I'll take you to sleep!" ”

"Okay!" Wuxian leaned his chin on my shoulder and slowly followed me to the bedroom, "You saw Yan Hui today, and you also saw Duanmu Ci?" He whispered in my ear.

"Well, Yan's return to life will not be long in coming, and Duanmu Ci promised to help you and me introduce Kong Qiu in three days. Hongyun'er, what kind of person do you say Kong Qiu is? If he is really so virtuous and talented, why don't the monarchs of all countries use him? ”

His ideas are of interest only to the king, but looking at the whole world, what monarch is capable of carrying out his set of ideas of governing the country by courtesy. He is like a fish seller, the fish he sells and loves to eat only a few people, but these people can't afford it, so he can't do it everywhere. ”

"If you were the Marquis of Jin, would you use his methods to govern the country?" I opened the door and bent down into the bedroom with my shirt on my back.

Wuxian knew that I couldn't carry him, so he deliberately drooped down again with a wicked smile: "I don't know, I haven't studied his way of governing the country." However, if I were the Marquis of Jin, I would prefer to use people like Guan Zhong and Yan Ying, and Duanmu Ci would not be bad. ”

"Kong Qiu only sat in the position of the chief secretary of the Lu country, did Duanmu Ci still be the minister of the guard?"

"The girl won't talk about them, let's talk about us, right?"

"We?" With all my strength, I finally "carried" the shirt to the bed.

"There are only three dormitories in this courtyard...... "Shirtless chuckled, put his arm around my neck, rolled over and fell onto the bed.

"I sleep with my four sons at night." I broke his hand around my neck and flipped it off of him.

"The four sons are in the same room as the fish woman, the fish is in the same room, and you are in the same room as me. And, tonight I suddenly don't want to sleep on the floor. Lying on the bed, Shirtless closed his eyes and muttered.

"You were actually drunk by half a jar of cinnamon wine." I looked at the shirtless red ears and laughed. He has slept in the same room with me almost every night since he left, but only today did he tell me that he wanted to sleep on a bed.

"Let me give you the bed, and I will sleep on the floor today." I smiled and patted his hands, intending to climb out of the bed.

"You don't remember what I said." Wuxian closed his eyes and stretched out his long hand to bring me to his chest, "Just sleep like this tonight!" ”

I rested on his chest, my heart pounding.

Just sleep like this...... What does that mean?

Don't......

My face was hot for a while, and behind my back, shirtless hands were caressing my back up and down. I began to frantically search my mind for the meat jokes I had heard since I was a child, trying to recall the images I had accidentally encountered in the field when I was a child. Kashiwa said that she would tell me about men and women when I grew up, but she didn't say anything later! The best in the mouths of the servants, what should they do?

"Shirtless......" I grabbed the shirt on my chest and whispered.

"Huh?" He replied vaguely.

Am I going to ask? But what to ask? My face was getting hotter and hotter, and my heart was beating almost out of my chest.

I moved my body up two inches, and my eyes were at eye level with his slender neck and reddened ears.

I kissed him on the neck and gently moved all the way to his ear. Last time, he did the same thing, so it can't be wrong, right?

"Ashi, what are you doing?" Shirtless covered his ears and sat up from the bed.

I tried to calm my messy breathing, looked at him and whispered, "Didn't you say you were going to sleep with me tonight?" I thought ......"

Wuxian raised his head and sighed heavily, then clasped his hands together and cupped my face: "What the hell are you thinking?" Who taught you to do that? ”

"The maidservants of the General's Mansion, when they meet someone they like, they will go out for the night." I didn't dare to look into the shirtless eyes, so I could only lower my eyes and stare at his chin.

"The handmaidens taught you? I thought you had a teaching mama? ”

"Mama doesn't teach this, and Master doesn't teach this. What's wrong? Am I doing something wrong? "I grabbed the shirtless hand, and suddenly a woman's beautiful face flashed in my mind. The women he used to be should know more than I do!

"You look at me, and I want you to remember my words." Sensing my discouragement and sadness, Wuxian raised my face slightly, "Those servants are slaves and commoners, and you are different from them. ”

"No, I'm like them."

"At least in my heart, you're not like anyone else. Have you forgotten what I told you in the mountain hut? I will marry you, I will have you with dignity, you will be my wife, the mother of my children. We are going to have a wedding and drink wine, how can you run to me at night like this? ”

"I ......"

"This cinnamon wine is too intoxicating, I drank too much tonight, I don't blame you. I'm still sleeping on the ground as I did a few days ago. Shirtless rolled over and got out of bed, and I hurriedly grabbed him: "No, let's sleep like this." ”

"Woman, I'm not a saint. You go to sleep first, I'll go out and blow the wind. Wuxian smiled wryly, got up and walked out.

Is he angry? I lay on my back on the bed, the shadows on the beams constantly changing as the candle flame flickered.

I don't know what I said, a woman who runs to a man without a matchmaker has a status worse than a concubine. But when we returned to the Jin Kingdom, he became the son of Zhao Shizi, and I entered the Taishi Mansion, and I had no qualifications to run to him overnight.

For Zhao Ying, what he wants is a god son who stays behind Taishi and protects the Zhao family everywhere, and the title of the son of the woman is reserved for those women who have a strong family backing. Just like Bolu married the daughter of the Zhi family, Zhiyan married the daughter of the Wei family, and there are not a few sons of the Qing family who marry the daughters of the public family and the women of the royal family. How can I, a common woman of unknown origin, fatherless and motherless, be his wife, the future mother of the Zhao family? In the face of reality, sweet dreams always have to wake up, why doesn't he understand even the truth that I understand?

I turned and curled myself up on the inside of the bed, and after a long time, when I was extremely tired, I opened the door and walked in. His cold hand wrapped around my waist, and a vague sigh brushed over my head. I didn't move, he didn't move, and we snuggled up to each other for the night.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, after bathing and changing clothes with the shirtless, I put on a scarf and a Confucian costume and went to Duanmuci's mansion in Qufu.

Today's Duanmu Ci is a reversal of the usual dress of the golden crown, with a wooden hairpin and a green robe, which is hearty and has a little more Confucian elegance. After greeting me and Wuxian, Duanmu Ci did not order his ornate two-horse carriage to be put on, but walked with us to Kongqiu's residence in the east of the city.
