Li Xiaoqi took a sip of tea, came out of the gods, called Wisteria in and ordered: "You go to the Liang Wangfu to find Xi'an, let him pick ten safe and careful spies for me to use, and only after the New Year can he return them, and use them in Kaiping Mansion." Wisteria hurriedly agreed, retreated and changed his clothes to go out, called two mothers-in-law to follow, and asked for a car to go to Liang Wangfu.

Early the next morning, Jiang Shuncai came in to listen to the instructions, Li Xiaoqi called him into the flower hall, retired from the girls, and left only the wisteria to wait and ordered: "From here until the New Year, there is one thing that is most important, you are optimistic about the weaving workshop for me, Zhang Xingwang outside the city, and a few mansions." Jiang Shuncai looked at Li Xiaoqi in amazement, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "It's not what you think, you also saw the situation in Willow Hutong yesterday, the second master's mansion received a bunch of posts and gifts yesterday, I'm afraid you also received it at home, right?" ”

"Back to the fifth master, there is, and the small one is not allowed to enter the door." Jiang Shuncai replied simply, and Li Xiaoqi nodded with satisfaction: "I know that you are clever, we are from a family of Zhuang, and suddenly encounter such a thing, I am afraid that someone will inevitably ...... It's a mess," Li Xiaoqi said vaguely but clearly: "You can't let people see our jokes, and then take advantage of the loopholes and make the mess bigger, it's still us who suffers, I'll leave this matter to you, watch it carefully, if someone gets dizzy, you just have to discipline it back." ”

"Yes!" Jiang Shuncai agreed neatly, looked up at Li Xiaoyi, and without waiting for him to speak, Li Xiaoqi smiled and said: "You can't see it alone, I borrowed ten people from Xi'an, the palace of Liang Wangfu last night, all of them are fine spies, and I will hand them over to you first, well, you look back and look for some helpers, this matter is not in a hurry, our people, rather lack than abuse, if there is anything, come to me, your monthly money is the same as that of Fifth Brother Zhao and Zhang Zhongyi, just start from October." Jiang Shuncai was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to thank him, Li Xiaoqi motioned to Wisteria to take him to hand over the manpower, Jiang Shuncai retired and went out with Wisteria.

Lu Feng woke up and returned to the Heavenly Master's Mansion without saying a word, he didn't come out for a few days, and the martial arts class of the three princes also made people pass a word that they stopped and stopped, Li Zonggui looked for him to talk in the morning and evening, but Lu Feng only cared about holding the wine jar and drinking, as if he didn't see Li Zonggui, as if there was only him and the wine jar in his arms in this world, Li Zonggui went for four or five days in a row, and saw that it was like this every day, so he had to find Li Xiaoqi for help, Li Xiaoqi was very surprised, he stayed for a long time, but he felt funny when he looked back, and let people prepare a car, took the light moon and the green orange to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

Li Xiaoqi wore an ankle-length hat, got out of the car at the gate of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and followed the mother-in-law who went out to just report to the fifth master of Willow Hutong with the porter, and waited to finish what to do, a gray-clothed steward rushed out of the gatehouse, ran down the steps with a smile on his face, and bowed down to the company commander: "The fifth master is here, the little ones are not welcome, the fifth master, please, it's good if you are old, our second master...... Alas, it's good that you're here! The big steward Yun explained before leaving, if the fifth master comes, he should only respect the elder, the fifth master, please here, the second master is in the back garden, I am afraid that he will be drunk again. ”

The steward kept talking as he walked, Li Xiaoqi listened to his words carefully, thanked him warmly, and followed him all the way to the excellent garden behind the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

Lu Feng fell crookedly in the warm pavilion that was open on all sides, the steward stopped his steps at the bottom of the steps, bowed down, and watched Li Xiaoyi's slightly lifted skirt along the steps all the way into the warm pavilion, Li Xiaoqi took off his hat and handed it to Qingcheng, turned his head to look at the warm pavilion, and beckoned to the mother-in-law who was standing at the warm pavilion and ordered: "It's too cold in this warm pavilion, send a few pots of charcoal over, clean up this place, close those windows, send a few basins of hot water in, and wait for your second master to clean his face and hands." ”

The housekeeper hurriedly signaled to the mother-in-law and the little house, and the little girl quickly took four pots of charcoal and put them in the four corners of the warm pavilion, and the mother-in-law neatly cleaned up the warm pavilion, took away the wine jar and wine glass, waited for Lu Feng to clean his hands and face, and took a clean robe for him to change into.

Lu Feng's face was blue, his eyes were red, he was drunk and sober, his eyes were staring at Li Xiaoyi, tossed by his mother-in-law, Li Xiaoqi saw that the warm pavilion was cleaned up, Qingcheng put a cushion on the round stool next to him, Li Xiaoqi carried the cushion and put it next to Lu Feng, straightened his skirt and sat down, turned his head to look at Lu Feng, and asked with a good smile: "How many more days do you plan to drink like this?" Lu Feng opened his mouth in a daze, and suddenly asked angrily, "Why did you marry him?" ”

"Hmm~~ Well, marry him, and I'll be able to be your little master!" Li Xiaoyuan said slowly and seriously, Qingcheng laughed out loud, Danyue hurriedly frowned and stabbed her, Lu Fengyuan opened his eyes, stayed for a moment, and blinked more than a dozen times quickly, pointing at Li Xiaoyi, and only after a while did he speak: "Where is he better than me?" How can he be as good as me? ”

"You're absolutely right!" Li Xiaoqi nodded again and again in agreement: "He is not as good as you, and he is not as good as Brother Shuisheng, so you are my brother, he has to be my husband, haven't you heard of it, brothers are like siblings, wives and husbands are like clothes, he is clothes, you are siblings!"

Qingcheng's eyebrows were raised so much that they almost flew out of her face, she pursed her lips tightly, staring at the light moon, and she couldn't wait to call it out of her eyes, what kind of reason did the girl say? Danyue was much more indifferent, glanced at Qingcheng, and stood still with her hands down.

Lu Feng took a few breaths and asked, "If I don't go...... Go to the flower building, are you willing to marry me? Li Xiaoqi shook his head without hesitation: "You are my sibling, how can I treat you like clothes?" Don't think about these useless things, who can be happy with everything in their life? You were born in the family of the Heavenly Master, and you have the love of your parents and brothers, how many people in the world can find who are more blessed than you? I know you're sad, I'm so sad, but it's not a big deal, it's really not, it's easy to be sad for a while, you want to drink, it's okay, but it's not interesting to drink alone, why don't you go to the green courtyard to drink, Luo Yan is a person who can talk, but he doesn't want to talk, it's okay to listen to the music. Li Xiaoqi persuaded in a calm tone, Lu Feng looked at Li Xiaoqi steadily, slowly raised his hand to cover his eyes, and choked up after a while: "Xiao Wu, you don't know, it's not sad, it's empty, it's very empty......"

Li Xiaoqi silently looked at Lu Feng who was covering his face and sobbing, sighed secretly, motioned to Qingcheng to let someone get hot water, twisted the handkerchief and stuffed it into Lu Feng's hand: "Wipe it, it's okay to go over, it's okay." ”

"I can't get by, it's gone." Lu Feng pressed the hot and humid handkerchief tightly on his face, and after a while, he put down the handkerchief, and looked at Li Xiaoqi with red eyes, Li Xiaoqi took the handkerchief from his hand and handed it to Qingcheng, Lu Feng slowly lowered his head and said in a low voice: "You go back, I'm fine, don't drink, don't drink anymore, I'll go to class tomorrow, it's okay, you can rest assured...... Go back, you're here, I'll be fine. ”

Li Xiaoqi was stunned, worry gradually oozed in his eyes, looked at Lu Feng, thought about it and said in a low voice: "Tomorrow I will let Xiuyun and Luoyan come over to accompany you for two days, don't shirk, one is your senior sister, who was supposed to live in your Heavenly Master's Mansion, and the other is Luoyan, they are all old acquaintances, they will stay with you for a few days, and I will let go of my mind a little." ”

"Well, whatever you want." Lu Feng agreed in a low voice, Li Xiaoqi sighed secretly, didn't stay long, stood up and said goodbye to Lu Feng, Lu Feng stood up and was about to send out, but the foot he raised fell back again, and he sat down again and waved his hand: "You go, I won't send it, I won't send you." Li Xiaoqi said 'um' in response, took the light moon and green orange into the car and walked out of the gate, and ordered to go to the green courtyard first.

Li Xiaoqi instructed Liu Xiuyun and Luo Yan to think of a way to relieve Lu Feng, and instructed the ladies and girls of the Green Green Courtyard to go to the Heavenly Master's Mansion often for a while before returning to Willow Hutong from the Green Green Courtyard.

At the beginning of November, the prince's ceremony was held, and the next day Guo Sanniang and the ten miles of pink makeup were carried into the prince's mansion together, Su Zicheng and Li Xiaoyi's marriage was also in accordance with the rules.

In the back garden of Li Mansion in Willow Hutong, in addition to the bluestone road swept clean, there is a thick snow piled up next to the place, Li Xiaoqi does not let people clean, there is no fallen leaves in autumn, there is no snow in winter, how can there be the taste of the season?

Sister Zhang lifted her skirt, her face was annoyed, and she walked quickly along the bluestone detour, and when she turned the corner, the long cloak almost threw it on the snowdrift. Sister Zhang rushed into the half-acre garden, and was impatient to walk the verandah, rushing all the way from the stone road in the middle of the courtyard to the door of the main house, and rushed into the house.

Li Xiaoqi looked at Sister Zhang with an angry face in surprise, and hurriedly took a few steps forward to help her sit on the kang and smiled: "What's wrong?" Rush the eldest sister like this? Don't be in a hurry, take a sip of tea first and speak slowly. Sister Zhang took the cup and put it on the table, stretched out her hand to pull Li Xiaoqi to sit down, looked at her and said angrily and anxiously: "You don't know yet, right?" By the way! Kang Soon-jae! Beat Zhang Xingwang on the street!" Li Xiaoqi was stunned when she heard this, and Sister Zhang slapped her thighs with both hands and shouted, "On the street!" It's all people! Everyone in Kaiping Mansion has seen it! He Jiang Shuncai dared to fight! Dare to whip it! Xingwang A new cotton jacket is sparsely smashed, and the horizontal and vertical ones on the back are all blood marks! Stiffen up two fingers high! You're scared when you see it! Xingwang almost cried to death in front of me and your second brother! Tell me, why is he? Where did he get the guts? Is there a royal law here?!"

"Eldest sister, don't worry, say slowly, what's going on? Okay, how did such a thing suddenly happen? Jiang Shuncai whipped Zhang Xingwang with a whip on the street, so he smoked it for no reason? Li Xiaoqi hurriedly stretched out her hand and patted Sister Zhang, who was almost choked, and asked.
