Xiao He saw Duan Heng like this, and he was no longer worried. As for greeting the envoys, it was not a big deal, so they all came down together.

The two major events have almost been decided, and Xiao He began to prepare to go home. So he got up to say goodbye, and when he stood up, he accidentally pulled the injury, his body was crooked, and he leaned on Duan Heng. Duan Heng only felt a weight on his body, and subconsciously held Xiao He's waist, realizing that the thin figure in his hand was too much.

Isn't it because I ate too many oranges and didn't eat? Duan Heng himself was amused by this sudden thought.

Xiao He was afraid that he would be hit by Duan Heng and that he was his daughter, so he quickly stood up and took two steps back. Duan Heng's hands were empty, and he still felt a little regretful in his heart.

The evening sunlight vaguely shone on the two people in the room, and Duan Heng suddenly felt that the person in front of him was not the one he was familiar with. The people in front of him are picturesque, and their eyes are cold, different from his sister's vain and high-mindedness, but the indifference of really seeing through the world. Standing a step away, the sunlight painted him with a layer of gold, and there was an inviolable sense of sacredness, even if he could reach out and touch it.

A vague thought flashed through him, how good it would be if Xiao He was a woman.

If Xiao He is a woman, it would be fine.

After Xiao He left, Duan Heng ordered to go down and investigate all the pawnshops near Longxing Building, focusing on asking if there was a young woman who had come to pawn jewelry recently, and if so, bring back all those jewelry.

It didn't take long for someone to return with something.

Duan Heng picked up a golden hairpin and looked at it a few times, this golden hairpin is exquisite and luxurious, and there is a small "Li" character at the tail of the golden hairpin. I picked up a golden hairpin again, and there was also a "Li" character at the end. Pick up a few items at random, and sure enough, each one has the mark of the word "Li". Oh, this girl, it's not small. If he and Xiao He guessed correctly, Li Nanke is from Fengguo, this would be interesting.

Li, this is Fengguo's national surname.

The next day, when Duan Heng, who had never been involved in political affairs, appeared in the court, it caused a lot of discussion among the ministers. Many people took the opportunity to come to congratulate them. Duan Heng responded one by one. When Shen Suhang appeared, there was more discussion. Finally Mu Churan came, and the discussion gradually became quieter.

Duan Heng's purpose in coming to the court was just to ask Mu Churan, and the team to greet the envoys was set as Duan Heng, Shen Suhang and Xiao He. It is a matter of the national system, and Mu Churan still has to nod and agree, and Mu Churan readily agreed.

The ministers were in an uproar, on the one hand, they were favored by Xiao He, and now they have a close relationship with the prince of King An. On the other hand, he lamented that Shen Suhang's power is even more slight now.

After going down, the three of them made an appointment to go to dinner together, and by the way, they discussed matters related to welcoming the envoys. Some ministers who wanted to come to make friends saw that the three of them were traveling together, and it was inconvenient to come forward to disturb them, so they gave up one after another.

When the group came to Beishi, Duan Heng said that the wine Xiao He brought last time was good, so he simply went to Longxing Building together. Longxing Building is still doing thriving, and the hall is full of guests. The shopkeeper usually sees a lot, and when he sees several guests, he has an extraordinary bearing, well-dressed, and a different temperament from ordinary people. Hurriedly led them to the second floor and found a private seat for the three of them to sit down.

After the three of them sat down, Duan Heng instructed the shopkeeper to order all the signature dishes in the store, and asked for two jars of bamboo leaves.

Although Xiao He had heard a lot of anecdotes about Shen Suhang, this was the first time they had met. The two looked at each other, both of them were frank and open-minded, and they didn't need to be too tempted, so they looked at each other and smiled, and they could be regarded as friends.

After a short time, the dishes were ready, and the three of them were staggered, and Xiao He seemed to ask Shen Suhang casually. "I heard that Lord Shen has been to Fengguo, I don't know what the customs and customs of Fengguo are? How about the monarch? ”

Originally, the three of them worked together to serve the country, and Shen Suhang didn't feel that Xiao He was asking anything wrong, so he smiled indifferently and replied leisurely. "If you want to talk about the customs of Fengguo, the most obvious thing is that I am very respectful of the country, and I respect women more. In Fengguo, there is no defense between men and women, and women can also go out into business, and there is no difference between men and men. Secondly, the flowers and trees of Fengguo are also planted. The quality of Fengguo's fruits and vegetables is better than that of our Dayin Kingdom. ”

Shen Suhang was praising Fengguo in and out of his words, but he was not disgusted, and the other two also knew that Shen Suhang was just saying some truths in his heart, and he did not tout Fengguo and belittle Dayin, so he only talked and listened after cooking, and did not take it to heart.

"As for this monarch, the two must also know that there is an empress in Fengguo, and now the current court is a farewell empress, and the previous empress is her sister Empress Duyang. Although the two were women, Fengguo was in good order under their rule. And the person who visited my Dayin this time was the third prince Li Changxi. I heard that they also have a younger sister, who is the youngest princess of the royal family, and she has the color of captivating the country and the city. However, when I went down, I didn't have a chance to see it. ”

Hearing Shen Suhang say Li Changxi's name, Xiao He and Duan Heng glanced at each other. Duan Heng asked with a smile. "I don't know how old these four princesses are, are they married?"

Shen Suhang had also heard too much of Duan Heng's nickname, and when he heard Duan Heng ask this kind of thing in a frivolous tone, he didn't think much about it, just shook his head again and again, and replied. "The princess is sixteen years old and has not yet married."

After getting the information they wanted to know, the two of them didn't ask any more, and they heard Shen Suhang say some interesting things about the envoy to other countries, and the atmosphere of this meal was very harmonious. In the end, Shen Suhang mentioned that he still had important things to do, so he took a step first. Duan Heng and Xiao He didn't do much to keep it, and motioned to Shen Suhang to take it easy.

When only Duan Heng and Xiao He were left, Duan Heng suddenly put away his previous frivolity, held a glass of wine in his hand, and said to Xiao He lightly: "The jewelry is engraved with a Li character." After a pause, he continued, "All jewelry is a royal standard. ”

Xiao He carefully recalled the alley where he met Li Nanke that day. After many twists and turns, I finally found a place. Coincidentally, Li Mo's group of people is here.

Xiao He stood not far from the entrance of the alley, looked at Li Mo and smiled at Duan Heng beside him, "These are the gangsters that day. ”

Duan Heng also smiled, but it was not as elegant and gentle as Xiao He, with the usual lazy style: "It's okay, I don't have to send someone to find it." ”

As soon as the words fell, a voice came from the alley that made Xiao He and Duan Heng feel familiar and surprised: "Didn't you say that Xiao Gongzi is here, why is there no trace now?" Crisp and tactful, but with a hint of anger, it was Li Nanke's voice.

Xiao He and Duan Heng were very puzzled why Li Nanke appeared here, and asked about Xiao He's whereabouts.

Li Nanke, who was in the alley, looked at the cunning and smug expressions of the group of people led by Li Mo who suddenly appeared, and immediately realized that he had fallen for Li Mo.

was rescued by Xiao He that day, after the separation in Longxing Building, although she listened to Xiao He's words and left by herself, but when she returned to the inn where she lived, Xiao He's elegant and handsome and heroic figure involuntarily appeared in her heart, and she had never been so heartbroken by a man.

She has seen many men with outstanding appearances, and her third brother Li Changxi is a rare beautiful man in the world, but there has never been a person like Xiao He, who is as beautiful as a jade tree and has beautiful bones.

Only such a man can be called the one in the poem, "Zhan Bi Qiao, green bamboo." There are bandit gentlemen, such as cutting, such as learning, such as grinding", which makes people unconsciously trust and admire at first sight, and it is difficult to forget.

After tossing and turning, Li Nanke finally made up his mind that since he had come to the capital of the Great Yin Emperor thousands of miles away, and met such a rare man, he must not miss it easily.

Li Nanke has only been here for a few days after all, she only knows his name, and she doesn't know anything else, the only place she can think of to inquire about Xiao He is the Longxing Building where he took her that day.

So he came here again, and asked Xiao Er in the building for Xiao He's information, just learned his identity, and when he didn't know how to get to his mansion, a man on the side of the road volunteered to lead the way for her, but the journey to Xiao's mansion was a little far, and I hope she could reward a few broken silver to drink tea and relieve her labor.

Li Nanke thought that he was just seeking money, so he readily agreed and followed him away.

When she walked to the mouth of this alley, she realized that something was wrong, and asked the guide, the leader smiled and did not answer, she turned around and saw Li Mo, only then did she realize that the leader and Li Mo were in the same group, and she couldn't help but secretly hate herself for being unlucky, and she actually ran into this group of people again, and regretted that she was so careless and easily deceived by others.

While Li Nanke's angry silver teeth were crushed, Li Mo was very proud, and said: "I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth, little lady, it seems that our fate is really not shallow." ”

Li Nanke frowned and reprimanded: "Fate? You deserve it! ”

Li Mo's face suddenly sank: "Hmph, you were lucky last time, this time it's not only the gold and silver treasures on your body, but even your people, Lao Tzu will never let go!" ”

Li Nanke was a little uneasy: "What are you going to do?" ”

Li Mo showed a lewd smile: "You little face like a flower, we can't waste it, we can earn a few hundred taels of shadows if you say the least, and," the thugs behind him also laughed meaningfully, "You can also comfort my brothers." ”

Li Nanke of the golden branch and jade leaf heard such inferior words, she was shocked and angry for a while, and she couldn't help but feel a trace of fear, after all, the other party was so powerful, if she was really invincible, she didn't dare to imagine what these people would do to her.

Although his thoughts were churning in his heart, Li Nanke still calmed down and said: "Don't think that I am afraid of you alone, a group of rabble, not enough to worry about." ”

Li Mo was about to refute, when he heard a leisurely and almost lazy voice behind him: "Who said you were alone?" ”

Li Nanke followed the voice and looked out, and saw two noble sons who came together, the one who spoke was the gentleman who followed him for a long time that day only for kumquat and even used jade jue to Yi Tangerine, and the other was actually Xiao He who was thinking about him!
