Chapter 64: The Fallen Scholar (2)

The shopkeeper looked at Song Li, his face flashed with embarrassment for a moment, and he looked at her again and again.

Seeing this, she shook her head with a smile and said, "If it's inconvenient, forget it." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, and led them to a box on the far edge of the fourth floor with a plaque inscribed 'Water Moon Mirror Flower'.

Pushing open the door, you will see an antique carved screen, and there is a two-person wide road to enter on the left and right.

Song Li couldn't help but smack his tongue a little.

She had followed Master all over the world and lived in many restaurants, but it was the first time she had seen this kind of layout.

"Not bad......"

She looked at the screen with great satisfaction and walked into the box.

The box is very spacious, facing a set of rosewood tables and chairs, and in the middle is a round table large enough to accommodate eight or nine people.

Behind the round table is a shelf full of precious antiques, and behind the shelf looms a large bed.

"Serve the food according to the old rules, and then prepare a bucket of water for me, I haven't taken a shower for a few days!"

Gu Shaoqing leaned on the chair, stretched out his limbs and leaned his head on the chair, and commanded comfortably.

The shopkeeper quickly withdrew.

Song Li stood in front of the window, taking in the famous city that never sleeps.

Suddenly, a familiar voice burst into her sight.

I saw the scholar man just now standing in front of the carriage and wandering, as if he was waiting for something.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and the fish was hooked.

"Yingyue, bring her up."

Song Li pointed at the man at Yingyue and said casually.

Yingyue looked in the direction she was pointing, was slightly stunned, and quickly said, "Okay!" ”

The man stood in front of Song Li's carriage, clutching the silver wrapped in a handkerchief, his brows full of hesitation.

Just on the way to look for it, he thought of Song Li's appearance of helping him pick up books, and felt that Song Li was different from the wonton stall owner.

finally found Song Li's carriage, but he couldn't make up his mind again.

"Childe, my young lady is invited."

Yingyue walked to the man's side and blessed slightly.

The man looked at Yingyue and quickly thought that it was the maid who was following Song Li, looked up, and just happened to break into a pair of clean and smiling eyes.

He nodded and said to Yingyue, "Please lead the way if you have trouble." ”

Yingyue quickly led him to the box.

He stood in front of Song Li, bowing to Song Li with some restraint, his eyes were a little dim, "Little one bother, please don't blame Miss Song." ”

Song Li shook his head with a smile and said to the man, "Sit down." ”

"Thank you!"

The man quickly sat down at the round table, put his hands on the table, and looked at Song Li at a loss.

Gu Shaoqing glanced at the man, tilted his head and looked at Song Li a little puzzled, "Xiao Ion, what are you inviting him to do?" ”

Song Li glanced at him and told him to shut up, and then sat down beside the man.

"I don't know what Childe is called?"

She lifted the teapot and poured a cup of tea, pushed it in front of the man, and asked slowly.

The man lowered his head, and his tone was a little light, "The surname is Xu, and the single name is Qing." ”

Song Li nodded, took a sip of the teacup, and looked at the man's eyes with a bit of deep meaning, "Where are you?" ”

"Jinyang."

"Jinyang, that's quite a long way, this journey must be very hard."

"Okay"

Xu Qing didn't know what Song Li meant, and slowly followed her words.

Song Li took another sip of tea and stopped talking.

Xu Qing was silent for a long time, opened the handkerchief that had been stained with sweat in his hand, revealed the silver that Song Li had given him earlier, handed it to Song Li, and said slowly: "There is no merit, the small one can't accept Miss's silver, and now I will return it all, thank you for Miss's generosity." ”

Song Li took the silver, but he didn't put it away but put it on the table, and tapped the table with his fingertips, "You don't have to be busy returning the silver first, I said it, and you will repay me when you are named on the gold list in the future." ”

Xu Qing looked at her, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a bit of disdain in his eyes, he really asked for something, but he was not as good as she wanted.

"Little ignorance, the title of the gold list is probably just speculation, I'm afraid I will live up to Miss's expectations." He smiled lightly and said that he got up and was about to leave, "The little one still has something, so I won't accompany you." ”

Song Li didn't stop him from leaving, but said slowly, "I said that you will be named on the gold list, and you will be named on the gold list." ”

Xu Qing's footsteps flickered, and he turned his head to look at Song Li's sworn appearance, his eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"There will be no pie in the sky, I will naturally ask for the silver I want, Xu Qing, don't you want to hear what I ask for?"

Seeing Xu Qing stop, she smiled and continued.

"I want to hear about it."

Xu Qing pursed his lips and turned around.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the only candidate for the new monarch that everyone expects, and the emperor has no intention of establishing a new prince, and now His Royal Highness is short of talents, and I want to recommend you to His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what you think?"

She turned her head slowly, looked directly into Xu Qing's eyes, and said seriously.

Xu Qing looked at Song Li's serious appearance, and his eyes became dim, "You already knew that I would come back to you, right?" ”

Song Li hooked a smile at the corner of his mouth, and nodded undeniably, "When I saw you, I knew that you were a cautious person and would never put yourself in a dilemma." You owe me a favor when you take my money, and you will have to pay it back in the future, and you know that very well. But you don't know what kind of person I am, I'm afraid that I will use this to blackmail you in the future, so you will definitely inquire about my reputation, just before I left Beijing, my reputation is very stinky, you don't worry, so ......"

She didn't explain what she said, but Xu Qing had already fallen into a deep shock.

He couldn't have imagined that Song Li would grasp his character and mind so accurately.

Song Li didn't care about Xu Qing's complexion, and continued to say slowly: "If I'm not mistaken, you also have a younger sister and a seriously ill mother, right......?"

Xu Qing's eyes suddenly burst out with a strange color, and he raised his voice suddenly, "You investigate me!?" ”

Song Li was not stopped by him, and shook his head with a smile, "We met for the first time, how can I investigate you in such a short time?" ”

When Xu Qing heard this, his face froze, and then he looked at Song Li in disbelief, pursing his lips and saying nothing.

Gu Shaoqing snorted coldly, looked at Song Li in surprise, and said dumbfounded: "It turns out that your little girl is trying to attract talents for Erlang!" ”

The Erlang in Gu Shaoqing's mouth is the crown prince Chu Tianfeng.

The crown prince was not the first son of Emperor Tianxuan, but the second, but the eldest prince died as early as a child.

"Tsk!" Gu Shaoqing pursed his lips, and a little color appeared in his eyes, "Erlang is so fateful, he actually asked the disciple of the Qingxu Daoist to do something for him." ”

The second half of his sentence was for Xu Qing to hear.

When Xu Qing heard this, a little surprise surged between his eyebrows, "You are the disciple of the Qingxu Daoist?" He asked, incredulous.

"It's like a fake!" Gu Shaoqing suddenly got up and walked in front of Xu Qing, raised his hand on Xu Qing's shoulder, and smiled with a ruffian, "Otherwise, how do you think she knows that you still have a sister and a seriously ill old lady, it's not me who brags, she just needs to take a look, and she will pick a place for you wherever you bury it in the future!" ”

Xu Qing was shocked by Gu Shaoqing's words.

Song Li gave Gu Shaoqing a satisfied look, and was very pleased with his divine assistance.

"Are you interested in sitting down and talking now?"

She tilted her head to look at Xu Qing and raised her chin at the place where he had been sitting earlier.

Xu Qing was about to nod, but Gu Shaoqing suddenly raised his hand and patted Xu Qing on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Scholar, there are not many opportunities like this, if you miss this village, there will be no next store." ”

"Not Your Excellency?"

Xu Qing was suddenly interested in Gu Shaoqing's identity.

"The only son of the eldest princess of Xuanyang, Gu Shaoqing."

Song Li slowly revealed Gu Shaoqing's identity, only to see Xu Qing's expression tightened, and he hurriedly bowed to Gu Shaoqing, "Grass people ......"

Gu Shaoqing interrupted him nonchalantly and pulled him up, "I have no title now, I don't have to engage in those false things, don't be grass-roots people, I don't know if I have to call you Lord Xu in the future." ”

Xu Qing's eyes were full of horror, and he didn't dare to say anything.

"You talk to Xiao Ion, I'll take a shower, I've been training for a few days, and I'm sick to death!"

Gu Shaoqing raised his hand and scratched his back without any image, said a word to Xu Qing, and left the room.

Xu Qing saluted Gu Shaoqing, and after seeing Gu Shaoqing leave, he looked at Song Li, and suddenly the six gods were gone.

He couldn't imagine that he was just malnourished and fell to the ground, and he was so lucky that Song Li appreciated him and recommended him to the prince.

"Don't be nervous, sit down."

Song Li smiled faintly.

He returned to his original position and sat down at a loss, meeting Song Li's gaze, and suddenly felt that he didn't know where to put his eyes.

"Miss, it's the son of the world!"

Yingyue, who was standing in front of the window and admiring the night, suddenly shouted, looked at Song Li with a happy face, and raised his hand to point downstairs.

Song Li quickly got up, glanced at the window, and just saw Chu Rong looking up.

She bent her eyebrows, waved her hand at Chu Rong, and said loudly: "Come on, I have something good for you!" ”

Before, she also thought that she would go to the Jingwang Mansion in a while, hand over the medicine stolen from Concubine Wan to Chu Rong, and tell Chu Rong about the conversation she heard in Concubine Wan's Palace, so that he would be more vigilant, but he would appear.

Chu Rong looked at the corners of her mouth curved, a little smile appeared between her eyebrows, and she nodded slowly.

Xu Qing didn't know when he moved to Song Li's side, glanced downstairs in surprise, and then looked at Song Li, the surprise in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

Thinking that Song Li asked Chu Rong to come up, he became inexplicably nervous.

Song Li looked at Xu Qing's nervous appearance, and comforted him with a funny voice: "Don't be nervous, Chu Rong is a little dark, don't eat people, look at you nervous." ”

Xu Qing was also amused, and after Song Li's comfort, his heart suddenly calmed down a lot.

"Miss Song and Chu Shizi seem to have a good relationship?"

Thinking of the rumors that Chu Rong was not close to women and was cold and unapproachable, he suddenly asked curiously.

"Okay."

Song Li nodded, a little smile in his eyes.

Xu Qing's heart became more and more shocked.

Song Li, who is notorious in other people's mouths, actually has a very good relationship with Chu Rong, who is not close to women in the world, how shocking it is to say.

He was suddenly a little curious, what kind of person Song Li was, and actually let the well-known Chu Shizi be friends with her.

Is she really as bad as the rumors?
