Dou Yifang also asked the three guests in the tavern, and learned that these three people were frequent customers of the tavern, and they would come to the tavern every three or five to get together, and Xiao Mao didn't know about other things about these three people.

Xiao Mao led Dou Yifang and Liu Heng to their wing, he asked the two of them to wait outside for a while, and then went in and lit the lamp to invite the two of them in.

"The kitchen is just behind the tavern, if you want to boil water, you can do it yourself, and you have to do a lot of things by yourself here......" Xiao Mao said, his tone like that of an adult.

"I'm going to give you dinner now." With that, he walked out.

Dou Yifang looked at his chubby figure, and a loving smile appeared on his face.

The layout of the wing room is very simple, one bed, one table and two benches, Liu Heng helped Dou Yifang to sit on the bench and poured her a glass of water.

Let the king serve, Dou Yifang was really flattered, and he was a little reluctant to go.

Liu Heng said: "Now you and I are an ordinary couple, and we don't need to care about those etiquette." ”

Dou Yifang nodded in understanding, Liu Heng did this for their safety.

"You seem to care about those three guests?"

"I just think they're not easy."

"You're overthinking!!"

"The world is so big, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people."

……

In the tavern, the three of them chatted about Dou Yifang and Liu Heng, and they were very interested in the identities of Liu Heng and Dou Yifang, so they guessed.

"Brother Wang Sun, you have the best eyesight, what inference do you have about those two?" The middle-aged man asked the young man.

The young man laughed and said, "These two must be rich and noble!" ”

"Look at the man who is magnificent, and the woman who is dignified and gentle, you can see that their wealth is extraordinary." The old man also said.

"Brother Yu's inference can go further than Brother Wangsun!!" The middle-aged man said with a smile.

The young man shook his head, disagreeing, then smiled smugly and said, "I know who these two people are and what their identities are. ”

The middle-aged man and the old man were very surprised, and asked him to tell him what was going on.

The young man bought a pass and said, "One of these two is the sage of the world, and the other is his helper. ”

"Just tell me who it is!!" The old man seemed a little anxious, and the middle-aged man seemed to have understood.

The young man said: "They are the acting king and Dou Meiren." ”

The old man was even more surprised, and the middle-aged man wondered how the boy had deduced it.

The young man said: "You see the service worn by the king, and the sleeves are sewn with gold thread, which can only be owned by the royal nobles." ”

"But that alone isn't enough to prove that he's the acting king!!"

The smile on the young man's face was a little mischievous, and he said, "The two brothers know that I have a wide range of friends, and I learned from them that the acting king has returned from Chang'an these days. What's more, I've seen portraits of the Acting King. ”

When the two of them heard this, they burst into laughter, only to say that the young man had cheated and punished him for drinking three glasses in a row. The young man has a hearty temperament and does not give up.

After drinking it, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Since I am fortunate to see here, I think this is the opportunity for Dou Ying to be given by God to advance, and I must seize this opportunity." ”

"If Brother Wang Sun enters the court as an official, where will there be a moment of quiet in your wild crane idle clouds?"

"If the eldest husband should be established for a lifetime, if he does not prove himself, is it not in vain?"

The middle-aged man and the old man nodded when they heard this, but they didn't seem to agree with each other.

"It's just that why did the acting king end up here?" The old man asked.

"I don't know about this, so I'll ignore it." Dou Ying Dao.

"Brother Wang Sun, does he have a plan to advance?" The middle-aged man asked.

Dou Ying smiled, he had already become a bamboo in his chest, and only heard him slowly say two words: "Recognize relatives!" ”

Xiao Mao brought dinner, although there are not many dishes, but they look very delicate and delicious.

Dou Yifang and Liu Heng were already hungry, and this meal made them hungry.

After eating, Dou Yifang was about to clean up, but Liu Heng didn't let her do it, so he cleaned up first. Seeing him tidy up the dishes and chopsticks, Dou Yifang felt warm in his heart.

Liu Heng took the cleaned dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen, and then lit a fire to boil water. The work of making a fire was really difficult for him, and when the firewood was lit, he saw no smoke but no flame.

Xiao Mao passed by the kitchen and saw it, and laughed at him for not even making a fire, what else would he do. Liu Heng was not angry, and asked Xiao Mao for advice on how to make a fire.

Of course, Xiaomao did not hesitate to teach, and proudly became a master.

Dou Yifang saw that Liu Heng had been gone for so long and had not come back, so she went to look for it with a cane, and when she came to the kitchen, she was moved to tears when she saw Liu Heng so serious.

Liu Heng definitely didn't want to be seen by her, so she didn't enter the kitchen, but silently returned to the room.

The fire finally burned steadily, and Liu Heng also felt a sense of accomplishment. It was a little ridiculous to think later that he was so happy for such a trivial matter.

He left the kitchen and went to the hall to meet the three drinkers, but the only thing left in the hall was the tavern owner pouring himself a drink.

The tavern owner invited him to sit down and have a drink, but Liu Heng didn't sit down, and after a glass of wine, it was like the tavern owner inquiring about the three of them.

But the owner of the tavern said that he didn't know them, Liu Heng didn't believe it, they always come to you to drink, how could you not know them?

The tavern owner said, "They drink their own wine, and I make my own living, so why should I know them?" ”

Liu Heng was speechless, although it sounded a little strong, but it really made some sense.

"You sit down for a while, and the old man will come when he goes." The tavern master got up and walked out of the hall.

After a while, he walked in again, sat down and placed a small bottle on the table. "Your lady's foot is sprained, my bottle of medicine is very smart, take it to her and use it!!"

Liu Heng hugged his fists and thanked him, took the medicine and left. Back in the kitchen, the water was boiling, and Liu Heng returned to the room with a bucket.

Although Dou Yifang was mentally prepared and knew that he would do this, he was moved when he saw it.

After wiping his body, Liu Heng also applied medicine to Dou Yifang, this medicinal wine was not on his feet, it was cold and cold, and the pain was erased in an instant. But it will take a few more days to heal.

"Thank you, my lord."

"You and I can't be so polite again, you know?"

Dou Yifang nodded.

"It's not too early, go to sleep!!"

The lights went out, leaving only the quiet night. The moonlight fell on the entrance of the tavern like a thin gauze curtain.

……

The sun has long since risen and the sun is shining. A ray of sunlight streamed in through the window and landed at the foot of the table.

In the bamboo forest outside the window, two birds danced happily, and the birdsong was pleasant.

Dou Yifang slept very sweetly, her eyelashes were long, her small mouth was red, and her nose was delicate and cute. Liu Heng was lying on his side, all the time looking at Dou Yifang's sweet sleeping appearance.

Gradually, Dou Yifang opened her eyes and found that Liu Heng was looking at her, so she was a little shy and asked him what he was looking at.

Liu Heng didn't answer, but just hugged Dou Yifang into his arms and reported it more tightly. He rarely gets to sleep this long, and he doesn't want to get up so quickly.

"Are we going to get out of here today?" Dou Yifang asked.

Liu Heng thought for a while and said, "I don't want to go yet, at least wait until your foot injury is healed before leaving." ”

Speaking from the heart, Dou Yifang didn't want to go back so soon, after coming to this bamboo forest tavern, she really felt Liu Heng's kindness to her!!

It's not all sorts of rewards, just a few little things to do for her, and these little things are enough to withstand any reward.

She is still a little selfish, hoping that this kind of day can be a few more days, so that they can forget their identity for a while and be the most ordinary couple.

Liu Heng and Dou Yi's room had just finished washing, and Xiao Maojiu had sent breakfast, but it was not easy to eat this breakfast, and they had to pay the account until yesterday first.

Liu Heng wondered, didn't he settle the bill until they left? Xiao Mao said mercilessly, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay.

Liu Heng sneered, the entire Daiguo is his, and he can't afford to pay?

"I will definitely pay the account, you can rest assured......"

Who knew that Xiaomi only recognized cash and nothing else, and insisted that they pay yesterday's money first.

Liu Heng was helpless, and when he was about to pay for it, he suddenly became stupid. Because he never brought money with him when he went out, there were always people who followed him to help him pay.

Dou Yifang came out with Liu Heng, so naturally he didn't bring any money with him. But she still had a pair of earrings, so she took them off and handed them to Xiao Mao, "Do you see if these can be offset?" ”

"You wait for me to ask, grandpa." Xiao Mao rushed out.

Liu Heng was very dissatisfied, "This kid actually looks down on this king!" ”

Dou Yifang smiled and said: "The king is angry, what the people want is actually very simple. These things that can be seen and touched can make them feel at ease. ”

Liu Heng thought about Dou Yifang's words, and realized something in his heart.

After a while, Xiao Mao ran back again, and said happily: "Grandpa said yes, what else do the two guest officers need?" ”

This instantaneous change in attitude caught Liu Heng off guard. Dou Yifang smiled and asked him to retreat first.

Time passed very slowly, and Dou Yifang was bored in the room. I want to go out for a walk, but my foot hurts and it is inconvenient.

The tavern owner seemed to know her boredom and asked Xiao Mao to send her a few books to relieve her boredom.

In these books, in addition to Lao Huang's way, there are also some guidelines for governing the country and some insights on the situation in the world. Dou Yifang was quite surprised when he saw it, so he recommended it to Liu Heng.

Liu Heng was overjoyed after reading it, greatly appreciated it, and even had a feeling of hating to see each other, "Why is there no such book in the palace?" ”

I was looking for the author of the book, and I read every bamboo slip, but I didn't find the author's name.

"Could it be that these writings are all written by an old gentleman?"

Liu Heng took one of the volumes and went to ask the tavern owner, who shook his head.

smiled: "As soon as I opened the tavern, how could I understand these truths." Just a few books, written by the guests who drank here yesterday, put them here for me to keep. ”

Liu Heng immediately remembered Dou Yifang's words - there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people.

These three people must be the great talents of the world, and if they can be assisted, they will be able to live in peace.

Immediately, Liu Heng asked where the three people lived, but the owner of the tavern didn't know, and while he was talking, the old man came among the three yesterday.

"Shopkeeper, fill me with this gourd." He handed over a flask, and the tavern owner took it and went to fill it.

The old man sat down in the hall and waited, when Liu Heng stepped forward and bowed.

The old man pretended to be surprised and asked him what he was doing.

Liu Heng said: "I just read Mr.'s article, and I have a lot of insights and benefits, so I pay tribute to him." ”

The old man smiled and said, "It's just nonsense after drinking, it's hard to be elegant......"

"The old gentleman is too modest, and there are still some questions I want to ask, I don't know ...... old gentleman."

At this time, the owner of the tavern returned the gourd full of wine to the old man, and the old man took it and walked away, and said, "Come with me!" ”

Liu Heng was overjoyed and hurriedly followed......
