Chapter 92: Exposing Huanting
The wine in the Twilight Tavern is notoriously delicious, so it's not unusual for Ning Ze to bring her here.
She counted, and it seemed that plum wine, plum snow wine, bamboo leaf green, rice wine, and her daughter's red sorghum wine were all very good. But for Qi Shu, it's good to want to drink some sake today.
The sake at the Twilight Tavern is the only flavor on this side of Xizi Street, not that other hotels don't have sake, but it doesn't taste as good as here.
It is said that this sake came from the outside, and the color is mostly light and transparent, and the flavor is similar to the taste of cherry blossoms, but it feels very sweet and greasy in the mouth, and it is not easy to get drunk.
Generally speaking, Qi Shu mostly drinks flower wine, and once when she came here, she used this kind of wine when she was entertained by Wan Ting.
After stepping into the threshold, Ning Ze nodded at Xiao Er, Xiao Er understood, and directly took the person to the second floor.
I haven't been here for a while, and the style and decoration here seem to have changed a little, no longer the original single-hanging dull and rigid old feeling, but changed a lot of details, such as the hanging paintings are replaced with more fresh and lively animals or flowers, and the house is not known why it is more lively than last time.
Xiao Er is still those little two, they are all familiar faces. If it was Qi Shu who came today, then the flat-headed junior second among them must know what Qi Shu generally likes.
was led to a private room, with Ning Ze in front and Qi Shu in the back. It seems that Ning Ze should have greeted here a long time ago, but it is noon now, and he must have planned to come over when the sun was setting.
"Miss, do you still want those things?" After Xiao Er waited for Qi Shu to sit down, he hurriedly stepped forward and poured a pot of tea for the two, and said earnestly.
The so-called ones are the things that Qi Shu ordered when he came over, including plum snow wine, a plate of peanuts, a plate of broad beans and a plate of beef.
Ning Ze was not surprised that Qi Shu had become an old customer, after all, the owner of this shop had saved Qi Shu's life, which could not be ignored.
And he also heard that Qi Shu didn't need to spend any money to eat at this twilight tavern, so he should have to pay for everything he ordered today.
The reserved private room has a good view, and you can see the street view outside when you poke out the window, I don't know if it's an illusion, it seems that everyone who comes to the tavern wants to choose the location by the window, and I don't know how much charm this window is.
"Okay, sit down, lord, tell me, what do you mean by not sending me back to the house and bringing me here?" Qi Shu sat up straight for a while, waiting for Ning Ze to speak, he came, and he could only listen to what he wanted to say.
If it's the kind of fleshy and supplacent kind of person who confides in her true feelings, Qi Shu will definitely leave the tavern immediately after thinking about it, and don't deal with such difficult people, in short, there is always no problem for her to shrink at home.
"I brought you here to meet someone, but it's not really special, if you don't want to stay here and leave." Ning Ze couldn't help but feel a little tricky when he thought of the person he was about to face, in fact, it might not be a good thing to involve Qi Shu, but Ning Ze felt that she still had the right to know.
"Well, listening to the tone of the prince's words, stay here with me." The attitude obviously cooled down, what kind of person, one set in front of one behind the other, I really can't believe it, this kind of hot and cold man is absolutely unacceptable, no, she won't want this man!
"Wait a minute, I guess she'll come."
Qi Shu was also alerted by Ning Ze's unfathomable look, but he was just seeing a person, not a flood beast, just seeing it.
Xiao Er put away the meaning of Ning Ze's favorite food such as peanuts and broad beans in a timely manner and left. Ning Ze didn't ask for anything, and stole some food from Qi Shu's bowl from time to time.
After a small half pot of plum snow wine, Ning Ze felt that his body began to gradually become steaming, and two smears of smoke flew on his face, his little face was flushed, and his eyes were wet, which was very cute.
Ning Ze was suddenly a little jealous of whom, no matter who it was, he was so jealous when he saw such a simple, fun and good-looking Qi Shu.
Compared with plum snow wine, bamboo leaf green is slightly heavier, and the fragrance of bamboo is also very wonderful enjoyment.
With the peanuts, broad beans, beef and wine in front of them, Ning Ze and Qi Shu began to chat awkwardly.
Looking out of the window, there were no less than a hundred or so pedestrians passing by. How long will this be?
Suddenly, there was a "squeak", the sound of the wooden door being pushed open, and someone came in.
Qi Shu and Ning Ze involuntarily looked towards the visitor, and for a moment they both unconsciously held their breath, and Wan Ting, who was dressed in a white dress, walked in.
At this moment, Qi Shu truly understood what it was like a Buddha like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like a flowing wind and returning snow.
The body is light and soft, the snow is cold and glamorous, the two bends seem to be frowning, not frowning, and the eyebrows are smiling, and a pair of eyes that are suitable for anger and joy.
He didn't wear a mask?
The delicate and impeccable facial features are heart-pounding.
If it weren't for the jade mountain, it would meet Yaotai under the moon.
This woman should only be in heaven, how many times can I hear it in the world?
What came out of Qi Shu's head was these things, Huanting was really beautiful and not like an ordinary woman in the world, but she had the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of ordinary people. In Qi Shu's opinion, such a person who came out of the dust couldn't help but feel a sense of regret when he entered this rolling red dust.
But after all, this is also someone else's choice, and Qi Shu only dares to imagine it in his heart and talk about it.
Ning Ze saw Qi Shu staring at Zhao Huanting directly, and his face actually showed some obsession?
"Ahem." Ning Ze snorted twice, trying to pull Qi Shu's consciousness back.
"Sore throat?" Qi Shu glanced at him and stabbed. There are so many things, she doesn't take a second look, the beauty is so eye-catching, can't she see more?
Zhao Huanting also smiled slightly when she saw Qi Shu's small movements, and then walked closer and sat next to Qi Shu.
Qi Shu naturally reached out and picked up the upside-down wine glass on the table, poured a glass of Meixue wine that he had only drunk half a pot, and then handed it to Zhao Huanting.
The relationship is so good that it is already drinking a pot of wine? Ning Ze frowned slightly, but he didn't expect that the two had become so close that they hadn't watched it for a while.
"Lord Wang, why do you have time to come here today? But Shu'er brought the prince over? Shu'er, you bring someone over and don't say hello in advance? I'm going to prepare carefully. Zhao Huanting said softly.
Qi Shu just wanted to argue, but Ning Ze caught off guard with a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth, and choked back his words.
Zhao Huanting's pupils constricted slightly, picked up the wine that Qi Shu poured for him, and then put it into his mouth with his sleeves half-covered, leaving a fragrant aftertaste.
"Today's boss doesn't wear a veil? Why, with such a celestial appearance, it's a pity to hide it? Ning Ze pretended to be suspicious and said.
"It's not Shu'er coming, not to mention that she is Ai Ji staring at my face, and over time she will get used to it, the last time she rested on a bed, they looked at each other for a long time." It seemed that she thought of something very interesting, Zhao Huanting couldn't help but hide her face and smile.
Show off, Chi Guoguo's show off, and even call his Ah Shu Shu'er, disgusting! It's really disgusting!
The indifference and detachment on Ning Ze's face was a little unbearable.
"So, presumably you must have told Qi Shu your identity?" Ning Ze said without a trace.
The soft smile on Zhao Huanting's face was a little stiff, but she quickly returned to her natural state. Hearing Ning Ze's words, he frowned slightly, and said suspiciously: "What identity?" ”
Ning Ze felt that he was a little anxious, and he kept hinting in his heart that he should not be too impulsive and be steady, after all, the strength of the opponent was not yet known.
Qi Shu looked at him and looked at him, what kind of medicine were these two people selling in their gourds?
"Princess Zhao was able to deign to come to Shaoliang of Wei to do business, Ning Ze felt deep admiration and couldn't help but sigh, the momentum of business transactions between merchants in my Wei State is getting better and better."
Princess Zhao?! What the?! Wan Ting is the princess of Zhao Kingdom?!!
Qi Shu looked at Zhao Huanting incredulously, as if he had heard some terrible news, wouldn't it.
"Shu'er, why are you so surprised? Didn't I tell you who I am? Zhao Huanting looked at Qi Shu in confusion.
??? Qi Shu was even more confused, when had she ever heard that Huanting was Zhao Huanting? There are so many people named Huanting in the world, how could she know that this Huanting is Zhao Huanting?
"Shu'er, you, you, what should I say to you?" Zhao Huanting shook her head, seemingly puzzled and confused.
Looking at the other party's confused expression, it was Qi Shu's turn to be unsure: "You really said it?" ”
"My name is Wan Ting, my surname is Zhao, and I live in Jiangnan to do business, this is a fact?!" Zhao Huanting continued to flicker Qi Shu, making her wonder if she had heard this.
"I thought you knew that the princess of Zhao was called Zhao Huanting, in order to learn from the merchants of Wei to do business, I came here to study, I thought you didn't care about your identity and didn't care who I am." Wan Ting was crying, the opposite of her usual cunning and cleverness.
Oops, kicked to the plate. This princess of Zhao is really not simple, he underestimated her.
Moved by Zhao Huanting's words, Qi Shu scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said with some embarrassment: "Since this is the case, then let's go over, it is inconvenient for your identity to walk in Wei State, so keep it secret." Qi Shu affirmed.
But hearing these words in Ning Ze's ears was like a thunderbolt from the sky, what? This kind of deception was just let go? He originally wanted to touch the melon along the vine, and then let Qi Shu be wary of Zhao Huanting.
Originally, one was the princess of Zhao State, and the other was the daughter of the minister of Wei State, even if they were cross-border, they were both boudoir women, and they didn't like to go out very much, but these two people had an intersection and were exceptionally friendly?
There is no conspiracy in this, and calculations are impossible.
According to Ning Ze's plan, he brought Qi Shu to the Duchun Tavern, and then looked for an opportunity to reveal Zhao Huanting's identity, so that Qi Shu would not have thought that those things in the past might have been done by Zhao Huanting. But definitely not so simple to pass?
Originally, today's plan was to stay in the prince's mansion and create an opportunity for the two to be alone, but I didn't expect that the opportunity was there, but it was a bit of a bad time to go.
They had no choice but to retreat from the prince's mansion, and Ning Ze temporarily decided to take Qi Shu to the Duchun Tavern to meet the princess of Zhao for a while, and deal with this matter that he had been brewing for a long time.
"What's wrong, Lord Wang? Does it matter? Zhao Huanting pretended to be panicked and said, lest if this store offended King Guanghan, it would be in danger of closing.
Qi Shu also looked at Ning Ze for some reason, a little strange that his actions today were really inconsistent with his usual behavior.
Could it be that someone is pretending to be Ning Ze?
Thinking of this, Qi Shu subconsciously handed his hand over and stretched it out to Ning Ze's chin, ready to touch it.
It's just that when he hadn't touched his neck yet, Ning Zeyi grabbed Qi Shu's hand, staring at him with burning eyes, the light in his eyes was dotted, like a reflected Milky Way, deep and beautiful.
Zhao Huanting looked at Ning Ze and didn't respond to Qi Shu, who was just staring at her, the look in her eyes was complicated and difficult to distinguish, sure enough, it was Qi Shu, and she couldn't run. It's just that such a person, will anyone really like it?
With his understanding of Qi Shu, it is true that he is talented, it is true that he is careful to hide things, it is true that he is kind from the bottom of his heart, and it is true that he is simple and almost stupid. Although she has some opinions, she has little impact, and there is nothing more suitable for her to control, not to mention that there are two melons hanging on a vine.
