Master Song's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he hurriedly pressed the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and turned his head to look at the shopkeeper Sun: "Twenty-one is more than five, just open it with three seven, I will be three, and your owner will take seven." ”

"Sir, don't be polite, although Mr. only paid a hundred taels of silver, but this teahouse will become bigger in the future, it will all depend on Mr. to take care of it, although our fifth master is small, but he is also a sensible and sensible person, half is not much, so it is decided."

Within two days, Shopkeeper Sun and Master Song completed the deed and other things, picked an auspicious day, started to open up the two courtyards, re-packed the layout, the house of the old man was really very elegant, Li Xiaoqi looked at it carefully, there was no major change as it was, that is, it went to the overlapping doors and thresholds, and demolished a few virgin walls, so that the whole yard seemed more open and transparent.

Shopkeeper Sun recruited six tea doctors in the city, taking advantage of the renovation of the house, Li Xiaoqi recruited six newly recruited tea doctors, together with Zhao Wuge and Zhang Gouzi, and taught and trained them for half a month.

After the reopening, Li Xiaoqi quietly replaced all the cups, saucers and bowls in the wisteria residence with the best fine white porcelain that Zheng Cheng could buy, all kinds of tea soup, snacks, and wine, the portion was halved, but the price doubled, Master Song sat under the wisteria trellis again, looked at the bright and clean table that could be used as a mirror, and the tea and snacks were beautiful and delicate like a painting, and sighed: "Old Sun, your host, this vision is amazing!" It's big business! ”

Shopkeeper Sun sat next to him, smiling all over his face: "The fifth master has lived in Taiping Mansion for a while. ”

Master Song really said that Lord Yan was moved, and the Zhongyuan poetry meeting was held in Wisteria Residence, this poetry meeting came down, Lord Yan was very satisfied, this Wisteria Residence, from the house to eating tea and wine, made him feel the elegance and exquisiteness of Taiping Mansion everywhere, Yuan Dashuai grew up in Taiping Mansion, and felt very kind, in this remote and desolate Zhengcheng, he finally felt a trace of the delicacy of Taiping Mansion.

After the Double Ninth Festival, Wisteria House has become the most elegant place in the hearts of literati in Zhengcheng and several nearby counties and towns.

In a small courtyard shaded by rattan trees in the easternmost part of Wisteria House, Li Xiaoqi was lying on a rocking chair, looking at a newly arrived copy of the palace, and in the middle, there was actually a •••••• letter written by Su Zicheng, the second prince of Beiping Kingdom, to Emperor Wu? It can be regarded as a letter, almost every line of the letter mentions Princess Funing, and under the sincere crying and blood expression, it is an aggressive question, why did Wu State garrison Zhengcheng and not move a bit? Is it just indifferent to watch the princess suffer? The love between brother and sister is so indifferent?

Li Xiaoqi leaned back on the back of the chair and lifted the Di copy, such a letter was copied to the Di copy, who let it be copied? What do you want to do? The blame is not the relationship between father and daughter, but the indifference between brother and sister, and the sister is naturally Princess Funing, what about the brother? Which brother? The brother who has the ability to be indifferent, only the eldest prince, so it seems that the court is still Wu Guifei's court, the Taiping Mansion, and the Taiping Mansion of Wu Guifei, this letter is copied in the palace, I am afraid it is to build momentum, so to speak, this Zheng Cheng, I am afraid that the Taiping will not be a few days.

Li Xiaoqi put down the copy, squinted his eyes and carefully considered for a while, jumped up, thought about it, and sat back again, at this time there are still many guests outside, it is inevitable to be seen when you go out, or wait until the evening to talk about it, this matter, there is no hurry at this time, alas, it would be good if there was a girl to use, at least you don't have to go out to find someone by yourself.

In the evening, Li Xiaoqi and the shopkeeper Sun carefully talked about their conjectures, and instructed him to save some rice, grain, tea and wine, just in case, it was already late autumn, and things could be saved.

Early the next morning, Zhang Gouzi sent a letter to the big car shop, and the next morning, Li Zonggui rushed into the city and took Li Xiaoqi back to the mountain, Li Xiaoqi took the copy of the house to Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng to see, and discussed it all night, and the next day, Li Zonggui and Li Erhuai first sent Li Xiaoqi back to Wisteria House, and then took Sun Qidi and others to buy food, medicine, clothes, cloth, and so on.

After a few busy days, the things were almost bought, Li Zonggui carried his clothes and luggage, and rushed to live in Wisteria, he had to look at Li Xiaoqi, since it was not too peaceful, Li Xiaoqi was alone in Zhengcheng, where did the brothers put their hearts? !

Two days later, one night, it was past the end of the unitary period, Master Song took the official on duty, carrying a lantern, hurriedly slapped open the door of the shop, and called the shopkeeper Sun to explain: "Hurry up and ask Sister Zhang to prepare a few boxes of fine points, and I will get them at the end of tomorrow." ”

"What's wrong?" Shopkeeper Sun was startled, and hurriedly asked, Master Song flashed in, covered the door with his backhand, and explained in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, it's not a bad thing, I just received the letter, and the Qincha came to the court, and I will enter Zhengcheng tomorrow, and my lord and I will go to the city early tomorrow morning to welcome the Qincha." ”

"Chincha? Who is it? What's wrong with our Zhengcheng? Why did you alarm Chin Cha? Shopkeeper Sun asked in disbelief.

"It's okay, it's okay, this Qin is here, and it can't be locked up with us, don't worry." Master Song paused, exhaled, and said in a low voice: "It's Lord Wu who comes, it's Wu Guifei's uncle, don't worry, our lord, you also know, it's from the Wu family, it seems that Lord Wu is here to supervise the war, alas, you don't have to worry about this, it's okay, don't worry about this, with me, hurry up and let Sister Zhang get up and make snacks, do it with your heart, and show your skills." ”

Shopkeeper Sun hurriedly agreed, sent Master Song out of the door, through the crack in the door, watched him go away, did not mention the lantern, hurried to the courtyard in the east corner in the dark, groped and pulled a hemp rope on the top of the door, this is the doorbell made by Li Xiaoyi, pull this rope, the small in the house was knocked, saving a knock on the door, alarming the whole courtyard.

Sister Zhang ran out and opened the door, the shopkeeper Sun flashed into the yard, Li Zonggui put on his clothes, out of the door of the wing, several people gathered in the main house, the shopkeeper Sun said what had just happened carefully, Li Xiaoqi wrapped in a cloak, twisted his brows for a while, looked at Sister Zhang and said: "Sister has worked hard, it seems that this Lord Wu has come quietly all the way, the road must be hard, the dim sum will be light and softer, just this afternoon just harvested chrysanthemums, make a chrysanthemum cake, a red bean cake, and then make two soft salty snacks." ”

Sister Zhang agreed, ran in to change clothes, Li Zonggui lit a lantern and handed it to the shopkeeper Sun, the shopkeeper Sun sent Sister Zhang to the kitchen, and went to call a few cooks and Brother Zhao up.

Watching the two go out, Li Xiaoqi took out a stack of Di copy, carefully read it from the latest, page by page, closed the Di copy, turned his head to look at Li Zonggui, who was stretching his legs and leaning back on the back of the chair, sighed and said: "It stands to reason that this Qin sent out, and the Di copy must be written, this Lord Wu will enter Zhengcheng tomorrow, and the Zhengcheng Mansion will only receive the letter at this time, it seems that this Qin Mission, is to hit someone by surprise, or afraid of alarming someone, so he has to come quietly, Lord Yan is from his Wu family, I got the letter tonight, what about the handsome man outside the city? Did you get a letter tonight? ”

Li Zonggui spread his hands, signaling that he didn't know, Li Xiaoqi lowered his head, put away the copy of the mansion one by one, slowly sorted out the thoughts surging in his heart, paused for a long time, and then continued: "I always feel that this matter sent by Qin, that Yuan Dashuai doesn't know yet, Brother Guizi might as well go to the north gate early tomorrow morning to guard, maybe you can see who went to Yuan Dashuai's camp to deliver the letter, and see who the handsome man will be able to rush over after getting the letter." ”

Li Zonggui nodded: "Okay, I'll go out and guard it as soon as it dawns tomorrow, it's just the same, I'm not in the city, you just stay in this courtyard, don't go anywhere!" ”

"yes, I know." Li Xiaoqi agreed absentmindedly, Lord Yan and Yuan Dashuai are one of Wu Guifei's people, and the other is the person of the eldest prince, they were originally two ways, but according to the relationship between them at the literary meeting for a while, the two of them at least on the surface, they are still a group of harmony, and now that Lord Wu is here, can this group of harmony continue? Lord Wu, how much can he supervise and want to supervise? Is there any chance in the middle? The mountain has not been open for a long time, although the shop has made some money, one to divide half of the out, second, usually make friends is also a matter of great money, in fact, there is not much left, and there are many people on the mountain, if these two families are in chaos, they may be able to touch something while they are in chaos, it would be great.

When Lord Wu entered the city at noon, Yuan Dashuai rushed to the palace at noon, and Li Zonggui saw Yuan Dashuai enter the city, but he didn't see the person who went out of the city to deliver the letter.

Lord Wu temporarily lived in the backyard of the mansion, and in the afternoon of the next day, on the street in front of the Wisteria House, rows of brightly clad guards blocked the street, and Lord Yan was half a step behind, accompanied by Lord Wu, and entered the Wisteria House.

Li Xiaoqi was dressed in a white shorts and pants, helping Sister Zhang hold the plate in the kitchen, the guards checked it and retreated, Li Xiaoqi put down the plate, stood by the kitchen window, and looked back cautiously, Lord Wu was holding his hands behind his back, looking up at the ginkgo biloba full of trees, Li Xiaoqi looked at him carefully, he looked at him in his fifties, tall, short, fat and thin, wearing a dark green silk gown, his face was white and cyan, maybe it was the reason for standing under a green shade, the cyan was the reflection of the green shade? The shape of the face is excellent, but it is a pity that the bags under the eyes, the corners of the eyes, the corners of the mouth, and the two pieces of soft skin under the cheeks are pulled down together, like a pink and white noodle bag, which has been folded into the shape of a human face with great care.
