Part 1 Staggered Time and Space Chapter 4 The Journey of the Kingdom of Li

Section 361 Magnificent Soul Villa (2)

Qingfeng Restaurant ran the hall and saw Yueqing and his party coming from afar. Taken aback, this one is not easy to provoke. I came yesterday, and the smashed things in the private room on the second floor have not been repaired yet.

He shook his hand at Xiao Er next to him and said anxiously and quietly: "Hurry up and be strong, go and call the shopkeeper to come, the county lord came again yesterday, don't make any more trouble, we can't deal with it." None of the big names we came into contact with were provoked by us. ”

The big man nodded hurriedly and prepared to leave.

Xiao Er hurriedly grabbed him again and said, "Remember, don't make a noise." ”

The big strong nodded emphatically.

Da Zhuang left as he said, Xiao Er wiped his hands, and a shrewd light flashed in his eyes. Then he straightened his clothes, rinsed his mouth with tea on the side, and spit it in a crockpot on the side. Brought the stone and Daming who were standing next to him and greeted them.

Yueqing and the others had already arrived at the steps at the entrance of the restaurant, only listening to the familiar welcome sound inside, the voice was deliberately slightly lowered, but it was clear and good:

"Oh, the guest has arrived, the guest has arrived. The county lord and a few adults are here. Welcome, welcome, welcome. ”

As he spoke, he took turns saluting. When he finished, he commanded: "Hurry up and lead the horse." Prepare some good fodder and take care of the lord's horses. ”

Then he stepped aside and made a welcome gesture: "Please inside, please inside, the private room is ready." The shopkeeper will be there soon. ”

Yueqing smiled and said to Mo Xue: "Sir, you see, this person can talk a lot, I saw him at the door yesterday, and he greeted him warmly." ”

Mo Xue bowed slightly.

Yueqing walked inside, and asked the little er: "Why are you welcoming guests at the door today?" I see a lot of people running the hall? ”

Xiao Er replied while welcoming everyone inside: "Back to the county master, I am a slave of the royal family, and the appreciation of the shopkeeper has made the little one the foreman of this running hall." ”

"Oh, this slave means that your parents, oh, no, your parents are also from the palace?"

"Yes, yes, the county lord is right."

"Oh, no wonder, my own people. What is your name? ”

The little second nodded and replied: "The little one's name is Qin Er, and everyone is the second child of me." The county lord also shouted the small one. ”

Yueqing was amused by him and smiled, "Oh, Qin Er is right, this Xiao Er and Xiao Er have the same two words, just this name makes the guests like here, your shopkeeper is really good at doing things." ”

Qin Er didn't care if the shopkeeper asked him to be here or not, but at this moment, he would just follow the words of the county lord.

"Yes, yes, what the county lord said is so right, the name Qin Er can make all the nobles like to come to Qingfeng Restaurant, and it is not in vain that my father and mother will give me this name. It looks ordinary, but it's actually very useful. ”

Yue Qing grinned, feeling that Qin Er's words were interesting.

While speaking, Qin Er had already led everyone to the private room upstairs, and changed directions after going upstairs today. Yueqing went up to look at the place she went to yesterday, and saw that the curtain at the door was closed.

"Qin Er, have the things they smashed against King Yong'an last day been repaired?" Yueqing asked after sitting down in the private room.

Qin Er didn't dare to comment on who smashed it, so he only said: "It's being repaired, but there are some objects in it, which are not available in the capital, so take some others at random and put them together, and the shopkeeper feels that he has lost that artistic conception, which makes the guests uncomfortable." I wanted to wait until all the objects arrived. ”

"Oh, no wonder, I see the curtain is drawn. Speaking of which, we are also responsible for this matter, and I don't know if this compensation has come and been delivered. ”

Qin Er hurriedly said: "I sent it, I sent it not long after the county lord left yesterday." The Yue family came to the shopkeeper, and not only gave compensation, but also sent a lot of good things. said that those were all apologies, and called our shopkeeper to say that it was too valuable, too precious. ”

"The shopkeeper of the Yue family?"

"Yes, yes, the shopkeeper said that he was afraid of delaying our repairs, so he sent an apology gift from the nearest teahouse according to the extent of the loss."

Yueqing looked back at Mo Xue: "Isn't it inappropriate for us to smash the things we smashed and have to pay the teahouse shopkeeper, I think it seems to be a lot of money." ”

Mo Xue was about to reply, when a voice came from the door: "Miss is too worried, there is nothing inappropriate." The Yue family is integrated from top to bottom, and all fund management is unified. This is done in order to speed up the processing of transactions. The nearest and largest industry is responsible for handling affairs, and then reports to the local Yuejia Chamber of Commerce to apply for reporting, and the Chamber of Commerce will naturally allocate these things to them. ”

I saw Yue Ke, Shi Rong and Qin Youdao, the shopkeeper of the restaurant, walking in together.

Yue Ke sat down on the seat on Yueqing's side. Except for him and Yueqing, there is no one sitting in this room now. Mo Xue and Qi Jiao and the others were still standing aside.

Yueqing realized this, and hurriedly said, "Everyone sit, why are you standing." ”

Mo Xue glanced at the seat, and the nearest position next to the young lady was occupied by the highest-ranking Lingwei and the highest-ranking deacon.

Yue Ke immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Xue sits here." ”

As he spoke, he sat down in a position one place away from Yueqing, and said to Shi Rong and the others by the way: "Miss just said that everyone should sit down, but you all sit down." ”

Mo Xue sat down where Yue Ke had just been, Shi Rong smiled when he saw this, and pulled Qin Youdao to sit opposite Yueqing.

Chang Song was standing at the door, Qi Jiao was sitting on the window railing, and he didn't plan to come and sit, Chunxiu thought that he was a subordinate, so he naturally wouldn't sit.

Chang Yuxiao looked at the empty position by the Yueqing window, and saw her looking at herself, so she had to sit down as she said.

Shi Rong glanced at him quietly.

Yueqing asked, "Yue Ke, why are you here?" ”

Yue Ke said with a smile: "Miss has not come back for a long time after entering the palace, and I am bored in the courtyard alone, so I also want to come and go." Thinking that the young lady always has to pass by here when she comes back from the palace, I want to wait for you here. ”

"Then you made an appointment with Shi Rong again?"

Yue Ke said: "Not this time, Shi Rong came to deal with some official business. ”

Yueqing was amused: "Shi Rong, aren't you a general?" Do you need to go to the restaurant to deal with any official business, and do you have dinner with any boss? ”

Shi Rong was not angry at all: "The county lord said that he laughed, of course I came here for business, and this matter is because of you." ”

Yueqing settled, "Because of me?" ”

"Yes, didn't the county lord notice that there were obviously more people in this restaurant today?"

Yueqing blinked: "Are there too many people?" I didn't pay attention to that. Were there fewer people yesterday? ”

"Of course, there are more than two more customers in this restaurant today than yesterday. And many of the characters in the middle have special identities. It is now the birthday of the Queen Mother, and it is also the most sensitive period, so you can't have an accident at this time. That's why I've been here, mainly to work with the castle guard to ensure law and order here, just in case there is any trouble. ”

Yueqing smiled embarrassedly: "Hehe, it's a good thing that the restaurant business is good, what does this have to do with me, won't it be because what I did yesterday affected you, right?" Let's talk about it first, yesterday's incident was a conflict provoked by King Yong'an. Today, at the Queen Mother, he has already admitted it himself. ”

"It's not that I blame the county lord, it's just that many people here want to witness the county lord's vacuum before they gather here."

"Look at me? See what I do? ”

Shi Rong laughed: "Don't you understand?" The women of the Chang clan in the mountain villa don't appear outside at will. The county lord acted in such a high-profile manner, so naturally many people would come here. ”

Yueqing frowned and looked at Mo Xue.

Mo Xue said: "What General Shi said is true, Miss's behavior will indeed attract a lot of people. ”

Yueqing asked Shi Rong in a not very good tone: "Come here?" How do they know which one is the lord of Shun An? ”

Shi Rong said with a smile: "It's so easy to guess, everyone knows that the county lord of Shun'an in the Li Kingdom is from the noble daughter of the Chang family, Princess Yongjing, and she will not stay in the boudoir like ordinary women in the Li Kingdom, so a woman like the county lord must be very eye-catching." ”

"I'm not the only woman going out, aren't there a lot of women downstairs?"

Qin Youdao then replied: "Most of those women are from the rivers and lakes and have fixed attire. Along with their respective gangs, most of the people in the rivers and lakes know each other well, and as long as they ask, they can know which faction it is. And the people around the county lord are different, the people in the villa usually don't show up or talk about it, and just these two obviously eye-catching Red Guard outfits can clearly say a lot of problems. ”

Yueqing looked at Chang Yuxiao and Chang Song's clothes.

"I said, do the Red Guards have to wear like this? Don't you have any other clothes? ”

Chang Yu shouted: "Miss, these clothes are all arranged by the villa. ”

Yue Ke said beside him: "Miss, this red-clothed python pattern suit is the honor of the Red Guards, and it also represents their loyalty. In the villa, there is a rule that the clothes of the Red Guards cannot be changed, otherwise they will be dyed red with their blood. ”

Shi Rong shook his eyebrows: "Yo, the rules of the villa are quite scary." ”

Yueqing glared at him and said to Mo Xue, "Whoever set this rule is too unreasonable, and no one really wants to enforce it." ”

Mo Xue said: "Miss, in front of outsiders, there is no need to talk about these in detail. But the villa does have a rule that the clothes of the Red Guards are uniform, and unless they die, they cannot be changed. ”

Qi Jiao also said: "It's not just clothes, as long as the guards in the villa become red guards, they will be red guards for the rest of their lives." It is not possible to step down. ”

Shi Rong said strangely: "Then if you want to say so, aren't there many red guards in the villa, why is it rumored that there are only more than 20 red guards in the villa?" ”

Qi Jiao glanced at him dangerously, "If Gongzi Shirong is curious, he will be able to understand it by going to the villa in person one day." ”

Shi Rong smiled: "But there is no return?" ”

Yueqing said impatiently: "Oh, don't make a mess." How can this be reasonable, these people have nothing to do, and it will not be a good thing to come here to see me. Is this trying to treat me like a monkey? It's really uncomfortable. ”

Yue Ke said: "After all, the eyes grow on other people's bodies, since the young lady is going to come out, she must make these preparations." ”

Yueqing snorted coldly. Asked Shi Rongdao: "You just said that you and the city guard have dealt with the affairs here, so there are people here who are making trouble?" ”

Shi Rong nodded and said: "That's true, there are a lot of reckless rivers and lakes, and naturally anything can happen." Moreover, some people still want to make a name for themselves at such a moment, so they will naturally perform from time to time. I've stopped six disputes this morning alone. ”

Yueqing frowned and didn't speak again. I feel a little uncomfortable, and these people want to get closer to me more or less with some purpose. Think about it, if you have to leave alone in the future, won't you have to deal with these people? Who knows who they are, and it is estimated that there are more bad people than good people. Thinking about it, he sighed.

Qi Jiao said beside him: "Miss don't worry, with us here, they will not be able to disturb Miss." ”

Yueqing frowned, glanced at him and said, "I'm not worried, but I don't feel a little uncomfortable." ”

Shi Rong said with a smile: "The county lord doesn't have to worry, the prince also considered that there would be such a situation, so he let me and the city guard come." With us here, these people don't come to know what they want to do.

But the county lord will still learn some lessons in the future, it doesn't matter if you come out for a turn, but it's hard for me. The prince has been busy with the Queen Mother's birthday banquet for the past two days, and I was originally free for two days, but your good days will be lost as soon as you come out. ”

Yueqing squinted at him: "King Bowei arranged your affairs, blame me." Originally, on the birthday of the Queen Mother, it was normal for you to be busy, and what you said seemed to be that you don't have to be busy without me. ”

Shi Rong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, you all have a reason, don't blame the county lord." If you want to blame the prince, you will blame the prince, put these lives on me, and go out to visit friends by yourself. Hehe, but I haven't seen anyone for a few days, and I'm extremely depressed. I am a lot happier when I think about it. ”

Yue Qing said in her heart What is there to say about this kind of thing here, why didn't she find that Shi Rong still had a broken mouth. Ignore him.

Mo Xue looked at Yueqing and chuckled: "There is still a time when King Bowei can't see his friends, I don't know what kind of friend is such a big shelf." ”

Shi Rong looked at him thoughtfully and said, "Naturally, he is the head of the Yue family, otherwise no one in the Li Kingdom would dare to refute his face." ”

Yueqing was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what Shi Rong was doing with this, which was telling her that they were acting according to their own plans.

He cleared his throat and said, "I haven't seen the head of the Yue family for a long time, is he busy?" As he spoke, he looked at Yue Ke.

Yue Ke didn't know what he was thinking, and said back to his senses at this time: "It's really a little busy, especially in the last few days. ”

Shi Rong said curiously: "I don't know what the Yue family is busy with?" ”

Yue Ke said: "There are some miscellaneous things in the family. ”

Shi Rong said: "So, the prince hasn't seen anyone in the past two days." ”

"Probably so."

Shi Rong said slyly: "When he is so busy, if the county lord goes to find him, I don't know if he can see anyone." ”

Yue Ke said: "What do you mean by this, if Miss sees him, she will naturally be able to see him." ”

Shi Rong touched his chin, "It seems that the county lord's face is bigger, maybe I can suggest to the prince and let him go in the name of the county lord." ”

Yueqing glared: "Why in my name, it's not a lie, King Bowei can still do such a thing." ”

Shi Rong laughed: "Jokes, don't take the county lord seriously." ”

As he was talking, there was a sound of ping-pong smashing outside. Everyone in the private room stopped talking, and Qin Youdao frowned and stood up.

Yueqing spoke first: "What's wrong?" ”

Everyone in the room looked at her.

Yue Ke said: "It's better that Miss still doesn't want to know." ”

Qin Youdao said: "It's really lively today, I have to go out and have a look, everyone is out of company." So saying, he saluted and left.

There was another shouting and scolding outside.

Yueqing also stood up.

Mo Xue got busy and asked, "What is Miss going to do?" These people in the rivers and lakes often have no sense of proportion in their fights, and they are careful to stain the eyes of the young lady. ”

Shi Rong also said with a straight face: "Yes, the sword has no eyes." In case it hurts. ”

Yueqing looked at the door and said, "I'm not going out, just look at the excitement at the door." With Qi Jiao here, I don't believe that any other weapon can fly to my side. ”

Everyone was speechless, Mo Xue sighed, and followed out of the screen.

Qi Jiao stood at the fence, and Yueqing walked up to him and looked out. I saw that the first floor was already fighting, mainly two people fighting. One with a broadsword, the other with a sword.

There was a circle of people standing around, and there were not a few people in the box on the first floor. It is said that the sword has no eyes, but no one left, and the two people were surrounded in the middle, coaxing and cheering from time to time, and the wide hall on the first floor of Qingfeng Restaurant seemed to have become a ring.

Qin Youdao had already gone down to the first floor and waved his hand to Xiao Er, who was facing him. He also stood in the crowd and looked lively.

Yueqing looked up and found that there were also many people coming out of the private rooms on the second floor, all standing by the fence and watching. After glancing at it, I saw that many people did not look at the excitement below, but instead looked at their own side, and their eyes were full of inquiry. Two rooms away from his side, a noble man in a white satin brocade suit was very eye-catching, and Yueqing stopped her gaze when she glanced at him, and looked up and down twice.

This person is very handsome, with a mature temperament on his face, and he is about thirty years old, which is a completely different style of beautiful men that Yueqing has seen so far. In terms of appearance alone, they are on par with Mo Xue and Chang Yuxiao.

If you were to rank in the moonlight, this person would have to be ranked fourth.

Chang Zhu is the first, firm and deep, but unfortunately there is no tension, after all, he has to lower his posture and surrender to the feet of the master of the Peony Courtyard.

Chang Yuxiao and Mo Xue are not easy to rank who is second and who is third. In Yueqing's heart, the two of them have the same weight. Mo Xue, with a beautiful and elegant temperament, Chang Yuxiao is cool and handsome, quiet and gentle, very attractive.

That's it next. The Chang Ge below him may be very charming because of his dress, and Yue Chi is extravagant and a little wild and uninhibited. They don't have to row up Yue Ke below, they have their own merits.

Oh, by the way, and Qi Yilin, I feel like I haven't thought of them for a long time, and I don't know how he is. Thinking about Yueqing, my thoughts are a little distracted.

Yue Ke stood beside him and asked, "What is Miss thinking?" Aren't you going to come out and see the excitement? Why do you always stare at others? ”

The moon is clear and comes back to his senses. Seeing that the man was laughing at her, she turned her head in embarrassment. replied to Yue Kedao: "Oh, I suddenly remembered Qi and remembered the old man." The people below are fighting because of something. ”

Shi Rong said: "What else can it be, grab the place." The upstairs private room is very expensive, and the downstairs box has become the preferred location for most people. It's a pity that there are too many people today, and there is only one box left when the two waves of people come. After the quarrel was fruitless, a fight ensued. ”

Yueqing glanced at the soldier behind him who was obviously coming to report the news and said, "There is no box to sit in the hall?" Where can't you eat? ”

Shi Rong coughed and said: "Not everyone can be as casual as the county lord, not to mention the hall, even if you eat freely in the wild, these Jianghu sects pay attention to the façade." ”

Yueqing said with a smile: "Talking about the façade, you can come to the top to talk about face, there is face on the second floor." Really, this little thing can be fought, if I can't fight. Hey, aren't you here to keep the law? Why are you standing here, don't go down and take care of it. ”

Shi Rong touched his chin and said, "It's not a big deal, don't worry about it." ”

"It's all a big deal?"

Shi Rong smiled: "This? What is this, it's just a few exchanges between the two parties that have scruples about each other. Even the tables, chairs and benches in the hall were broken. If you really want to fight, it won't be so gentle. Didn't you see that the shopkeeper Qin was also standing below and watching for a long time. Besides, they didn't dare to make a big deal at this juncture. ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the two sides to move smaller and smaller, and then it became a fight. The words are relatively rude, and what mother's skin, grandma's words and all kinds of personal attacks come out. This side scolds that side doesn't have the courage to cause trouble, and that side scolds this side for not following the rules, and what will happen when they get out of the capital.

Yueqing was bored when she heard it, and suddenly heard the weak party angrily reprimand: "You have the ability, why don't you break into the Magnificent Spirit Courtyard if you have the ability, you only dare to bark here." ”

Yueqing listened to the spirit, the Rosewood Courtyard, isn't that the Goddess Courtyard?

turned his head to look at Mo Xue and the others, and saw that everyone didn't have much reaction. Looking at Shi Rong and them again, there is no strange look.

Curious, he asked, "What kind of place is this Magnificent Soul Courtyard?" ”

Mo Xue glanced at her.

She asked Shi Rong what she said, Shi Rong turned his head and said lightly: "It's normal that the county lord just came to Li Country and didn't know, it was a forbidden place, and no one was allowed to enter." Even if anyone really could break in, they wouldn't be able to get out. ”

Yueqing continued to ask, "Is this place famous?" Why do they use this place to scare people? ”

Shi Rong said: "Of course it's famous, in the country of Li, there are almost no people who don't know that place." ”

Yueqing was strange in her heart, saying that the villa was very mysterious, and the goddess should be even more mysterious, why did the goddess annex become a place that everyone knew. Thinking about it, he said with great interest: "Oh, why haven't I been here and never heard of such a place." Sounds like a lot of fun, you can tell me about it. ”

Shi Rong said with a smile: "County Lord, this is not a fun place, although many people know about this place, but no one has ever really been there." ”

Yueqing leaned against the railing: "No one has ever been?" So how do you know there's such a place? You are a general, and you follow King Bowei every day, and you have never been there? ”

Shi Rong saw that she asked so directly, and took him and King Bowei as examples, and was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, someone next to him said: "Even the prince and the general can't enter that place." ”

Yueqing turned her head to look and saw that it was the handsome guy just now.

Seeing Yueqing look over, the man then saluted and said, "When you look down, this is polite." ”

Yueqing paused for a few seconds and replied, "Hello." Well, it's not me who picks on the thorns, people like us, so many men, why do you say hello to me as a girl. ”

Gu Rongshi said with a smile: "There are two reasons, one is that the county lord is the leader of your people, of course, he has to pay tribute to you first." Second, most of you know me, that is, you are not a living person, so you don't need to introduce yourself. ”

Yueqing looked at Mo Xue curiously: "Acquaintance? ”

Mo Xue said: "It's an acquaintance, this is the owner of the Imperial Sword Gate." The Imperial Gate was mainly engaged in dart boards, jewelry, cloth and horses, and was an imperial merchant. ”

Yueqing was looking at this handsome businessman, and a person came out of their private room again: "Although he is a businessman, his status in the rivers and lakes is also one of the best." ”

I saw that the man walked up to Gu Rongshi and stood still, "Why didn't Brother Rong come in for a long time, it turned out that he met a wonderful person." ”

Gu Rongshi introduced: "The county lord shouldn't know it yet, this is the martial arts alliance lord Huangfu Qingcheng. ”

Yueqing was taken aback again, the leader of the martial arts alliance, this has only been seen in TV series. This person doesn't look very good, I didn't pay attention to it just now, but after his introduction, Yueqing suddenly took a few more looks.

Then he smiled and said: "The martial arts alliance leader is quite rare, I haven't seen it." It should be very powerful to be the leader of the alliance, I don't know who is powerful if you fight with Qi Jiao. ”

Huangfu Qingcheng said: "I have heard that there is a Jiao commander in Mocheng Villa, who is the leader of the Red Guard. I'm probably inferior to this kind of character. ”

Yueqing said strangely: "How do you know?" You know each other, too? ”

Huangfu Qingcheng said: "I don't know, but I've heard of the county lord fighting in the Shijia school." ”

"Oh, you guys like to ask people about things. However, I don't like people to ask me too much. Our mountain village intelligence network should not be weak, and I will inquire about you when I go back. If there is anything particularly interesting, it will be made into a tabloid and scattered among the people, so that the people can be happy. ”

Huangfu Qingcheng choked.

Gu Rongshi covered his mouth with his hand and chuckled: "The county lord is really interesting, I haven't seen anyone who can say that Brother Qingcheng has nothing to say." ”

After speaking, he fixed his gaze and said: "But the county lord's threatening words are a little untrue, and the county lord is not the temperament to do such a thing at first glance." ”

Yueqing said: "That's because you are wrong, you must understand, you know people and faces, but you don't know your heart, and never judge what a person will do from her face." ”

Then I looked at the people who were more and more curious to see the people here: "Let's not keep being monkeys here, meeting is fate, I'm also very interested in you, let's go to our room to talk." Oh yes, it's just the two of you. ”

The two on the opposite side glanced at each other, turned around and said a few words, and followed Yueqing and the others into their private room.
