Du Baozhu has been here for nearly a month, but he has never been anywhere else except for Jinggongfang and the East and West Cities.

Brought here by the child's left and right turns, she had already lost her way, only knowing that she had left the west gate of the East Market, but she didn't know which square it was.

When I looked up, I saw bungalows on both sides of the ten-pace-wide winding road. However, the wall tiles are also quite exquisite, there are many flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, and from time to time there is a clanging sound of the piano from the courtyard, which should be a wealthy family.

took out ten coins from the bag and handed them to Xiaowa, who took the money and left happily. Du Baozhu looked left and right, but there was no one in sight, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Who knows, after knocking several times, a lazy female voice inside asked through the door: "Which unruly fool is in a hurry to disturb my aunt's dreams early in the morning?" ”

The female voice was different from the woman Du Baozhu had contacted before, with a little charm, not like the good family, Du Baozhu reacted at this time, she seemed to have come to the wrong place.

However, the dagger came out of the courtyard, and she had to go in and take a look at it anyway. He responded quietly: "Du Niang of Du's new tea shop asks to see." ”

"A new tea shop?" The woman in the door heard Du Baozhu's voice and let out a 'huh', and then opened the door and looked out: "Are you the daughter of the owner of the new tea shop?" What are you doing here? ”

The affairs of the new tea shop have always been handled by the shopkeeper He, and Du Baozhu only hides behind the scenes to come up with ideas. Except for Wang Debao, who signed a contract with Du Baozhu, no one knows the connection between Du Baozhu and the new tea shop.

However, the incident happened suddenly, except for this one-name that can be used, Du Baozhu really couldn't think of any other reason to coax the woman to open the door, so he had to take out the special seal to prove his identity: "The lady has good eyesight, I am the daughter of the owner of Du's new tea shop, and I came here today to talk about the business of the tea shop." ”

The woman listened to Du Baozhu's words, covered her lips, and smiled very gracefully: "You little girl, do you know what kind of place slave is here?" Just say you want to talk about business. ”

Du Baozhu smiled: "No matter what place it is, since the lady has heard of my new tea shop, she has to talk about it." My family has recently taken over the delivery business, when does the lady want to drink my family's drink, send a child to say yes. ”

"It's a lot easier." The woman also laughed: "Your drink is indeed delicious, and my sisters love to drink it." Especially the red snow, soft and glutinous and smooth, I don't know how your chef makes it. ”

"Since the lady is interested in my business, why don't you let me meet the person who is talking about it and sit down and have a good talk? When entertaining guests, if you can have a special Du Shi new tea, wouldn't it be more noble to be a lady? ”

The woman's eyes wandered, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but in the end, she moved lightly and gave way: "Since the little lady wants to talk, let's come in." ”

After entering the courtyard, Du Baozhu found that the scenery of this house was indeed a little different from the courtyard of the Liang family.

The courtyard is a small scene of the Jiangnan garden, and the artificial landscape pavilion is built like a flower arrangement in the middle, and there is a trail corridor. The chapel is draped, and the room is full of curtains, and at first glance it is the occasion for the literati to play amorous.

Du Baozhu didn't feel embarrassed, and kept his eyes open and carefully remembered the path in his heart.

The lady took Du Baozhu to a small pavilion: "The little lady sits here for a while, my mother is sleeping, I'll call her." ”

When she was far away, Du Baozhu got up and looked around.

In fact, she didn't know what to look for.

When she first saw the dagger, she thought it was the man who had fled in a hurry and lost it halfway. But the little baby brought her to such a place, which is a little intriguing.

What's more, when she reported to her home, the reaction of the woman who opened the door was not abnormal, as if she didn't know that she would come, and things became even more confusing.

What the hell is that man doing? Is there something you want to say to her? Or do you want some money to see that new tea shop is booming?

Du Baozhu was full of thoughts for a while, and seeing that a row of houses was about to come to an end, a big hand suddenly stretched out from the dense flowers on the side and dragged her down the corridor.

Du Baozhu was so shocked that his heart almost jumped out of his mouth, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a smiling face close at hand: "Shh, it's me." ”

The corner of the man's mouth was punched by Li Yi, and his skin was a little broken, but this did not affect his smile, and Du Baozhu couldn't help laughing when he saw it: "Why are you here?" The Yulin Army is searching the city, and it will be too late if they don't leave. ”

The man listened to Du Baozhu's words, and there was a hint of helplessness in his smile: "I can't leave." ”

"Why?" Du Baozhu was shocked, and hurriedly lowered his head to look: "Are you injured?" ”

"Hmm." Only then did the man let go of his left hand covering his waist, leaned lightly on the pomegranate tree behind him, and looked at Du Baozhu with a smile: "After the last safari, did Chen Yueyao trouble you again?" ”

The sun was rising high, and the sun was shining on his face through the dense pomegranate leaves. He was already born vigorous and masculine, and after being modified by the fine leaf shadows, he looked even more chic and uninhibited.

However, Du Baozhu had no intention of admiring his beauty, and his eyes were fixed on his waist: "How can this be?" ”

The shirt around his waist had been cut by the blade, revealing a hideous wound. The wound was deep and long, and it looked like it was going to cut him off, and the flesh was blurred.

Du Baozhu had never seen such a bloody scene before, and he was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he should hurry up to stop the bleeding, and trembled his fingers to pull out the dagger.

was about to cut a corner of his clothes to bandage him, but he held him down: "Don't you still want to talk about business?" What should I do if someone finds my clothes torn? ”

"I can't do that much." Du Baozhu bit his lip stubbornly: "Human life is more important." ”

"Fool." The man suddenly laughed: "It's all Yulin Army outside, even if you help me bandage my wounds, I can't escape." I called you to come, that is, to ask you to hand me over to Tian Lingzi. ”

"Why?" Du Baozhu was full of doubts: "Are you Tian Lingzi's person?" Could it be that today's assassination was arranged by him? ”

This doesn't make sense, now Li Yu has not given birth to a son, which is Tian Lingzi's biggest reliance. If Li Yi died, Tian Lingzi's road to Quanchen would come to an end, and it would be impossible for him to do such a stupid thing of digging his own grave.

"Where did you think of it? How could I be Tian Lingzi's subordinate. The man hooked his lips and chuckled, his dark eyes looked at Du Baozhu seriously, and sighed: "Actually, you should have guessed my identity, right?" ”

"You are not Tian Lingzi's person, and you came to assassinate the emperor, that is a chaotic army." Du Baozhu didn't care whether the rebel army or the regular army was in trouble, and his answer was very frank.

Instead, the man was stunned: "Aren't you afraid? ”

"I'm scared, I won't come here." Du Baozhu ignored him and lowered his head to untie his robe.

The man's eyebrows jumped, and he quickly looked away, and the sunlight fell on the tips of his ears, revealing a touch of redness, which was a little redder than the unopened pomegranate buds.

Du Baozhu was regretting why he wore men's clothes with a short fabric today, and he couldn't find a place to cut a large piece of fabric, so he didn't notice his reaction at all.

Finally cut off a piece of fabric that could be used as an emergency triangular scarf, and then she raised her head and stuffed the corner of the fabric into the man's hand: "Take it." ”

The man held the fabric and realized that he seemed to be thinking about something, and his face turned red and he twisted his head even further. After a pause, he reminded in a low voice: "Handing me over to Tian Lingzi is a great achievement, and Chen Yueyao will no longer be able to embarrass you in the future." ”

"Ants are still greedy for life, do you have a habit of sending people to death when you are in the army?" Du Baozhu glared at him angrily, and sneered: "I have my own way to deal with Chen Yueyao, I don't need you to exchange your life." ”

"You want to save me?" The man's face finally showed a hint of surprise: "If it is discovered by Tian Lingzi, this is a capital crime that is full of beheading!" ”

"You can save me, why can't I save you?" From the moment he saw his wound, Du Baozhu had been thinking of a way to deal with it, and at this time he had already vaguely had a plan, so he smiled at him proudly and said, "Isn't it okay not to be discovered by him?" ”

The conditions were rudimentary, and although she knew that the wound should be disinfected, she could do nothing. He could only cut his torn clothes as smoothly as possible, and wrapped the clean fabric around the wound: "There is no condition now, I can only stop the bleeding first, and when I get out of here, I will find a way to find Lang Zhong to treat you." ”

She looked at the wound carefully, and saw that the speed of blood flow had indeed slowed down a bit, so she whispered, "Wait for me here, I'll be back in a while." ”

Without waiting for the man to answer, he turned over and climbed up to the cloister, found a pool with a view, and washed his hands before returning to the pavilion where he had been waiting.

The woman and another richly dressed middle-aged woman were already waiting here, and when they saw Du Baozhu, they smiled and said, "Where is the little lady?" I'm looking for you. ”

The middle-aged woman's expression was originally a little impatient, and she swept Du Baozhu up and down at this time, and saw that although Du Baozhu's robe was a little messy, and the corners of the robe were stained with dust, the fabrics were all first-class good fabrics, and there was a smile on her face: "Many guests praise me for having the essence of Jiangnan Forest Garden in this courtyard, if the little lady likes it, I will take you to have a good look, and we will talk about business matters while walking." ”

The man was still waiting in the flowers, how dare Du Baozhu waste time, smiled slightly, and said: "Please forgive me, the garden concept of your mansion is indeed ingenious, one step at a time, I was abrupt just now, I walked around without authorization, and I was almost fascinated." But business, let's sit down and talk. ”

The middle-aged woman was very proud of her garden, and was praised by Du Baozhu, and the smile on her face deepened: "Then let's sit and talk, Miao'er watch the tea." ”

Du Baozhu sat down in the pavilion and said straight to the point: "My family's drinks are constantly innovating, if the lady is willing to cooperate with us, I will guarantee that all new products will be supplied to your house three days in advance." ”

The female Chang family in the Tang Dynasty sometimes provided food and drink for guests, but they did not know how to cook these themselves, and most of them cooperated with outside wine shops to make some money from changing hands.

Although the drinks sold in the milk tea shop are not quite in line with this demand, Du Baozhu can't think of a better reason for a while, so he has to sell it hard.

The bustard's mother was really not very interested, and her face collapsed: "It turns out that this is for this, my family already has a store that supplies alcohol, and I don't need this." ”

Du Baozhu didn't come for business, but when he saw that the bustard's mother refused, he stood up with a regretful face: "It's me who bothered, I'm really sorry." ”

Who knows, she was just about to leave, but the bustard mother suddenly stopped her: "Hey, wait! ”
