Mrs. Zhao sent the details of the Prime Minister's Mansion to Puli, and after sending the news of the drowning of the maid's brother, she didn't care. Unexpectedly, only half an hour later, someone from Jingzhao Mansion contacted him, saying that Mrs. Zhao praised him for his cleverness and intentions, and brought him a heavy money bag.

He never thought that this news was so important, but he was flattered, and he was worried that things would change, so he kept guarding the door pavilion of the Prime Minister's Mansion. In order to avoid suspicion, he immediately pretended to be sick and took leave, carried a heavy purse, and went to the street.

From time to time, he weighed his money bag, smiled happily, and thought about finding a wine house to treat himself. After walking around the street, he saw a luxuriously decorated wine house, so he tied his money bag around his waist and paced in with his hands behind his back.

When the man saw the diner who came to look like a big man, he greeted him politely, and Pu Li said with a big grin: "Lead me to the private room." ”

The guy hesitated, and Pu Li glared at him and said, "I'm afraid I don't have any money." ”

The man hurriedly led him to the private room upstairs, and explained as he walked: "This guest officer, there is already a guest sitting in the private room before, I am afraid that you will be unhappy. But it's okay, I'll move the screen right away. With that, the two of them had gone upstairs.

The elegant room of the wine house is very spacious, the east and west sides are oblique lattice window lattices, which is particularly bright, the floor is spread with good guan seats, and a dining table is placed at the north and south ends. There was already a guest his age sitting next to the north table, looking at them with a smile. Pu Li was in a good mood at the moment, and bowed to the guest opposite, and the man also straightened up and returned the salute.

Seeing that he didn't think he was upset, the man was relieved, and said, "The guest officer will sit down first, and I'll go and move a screen." ”

Pu Li said: "It's okay, it's spacious." There is no need to move the screen. ”

The man became more and more attentive and asked, "What kind of wine and food do the guest officers like?" ”

Pu Li said proudly: "Wine, if you want to serve liquor, dishes, just send what you are good at." ”

The guests in the north seat looked at him with a smile, and when the man left, he asked, "Are you from the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Pu Li was taken aback and said, "How do you know?" ”

The man smiled and said, "My surname is from my name, and I used to work in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I know your clothes." ”

Pu Li looked down at his clothes, and suddenly realized: "I see, then I will come out to change my clothes in the future." He also said: "My surname is Pumingli, and I serve as a doorman in the Prime Minister's Mansion, where is Brother Gai now." ”

Gai said: "I am the cook of Jingzhao Mansion. ”

Pu Li was overjoyed and blurted out: "I was originally from Jingzhao Mansion, and I was sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion by Jingzhao Yin. Luck, luck"

Gai Qi was taken aback when he heard this, then calmed down, smiled weirdly, and arched his hand: "Why is it so coincidental, I am a fine work sent to Jingzhao Mansion by the Prime Minister's wife." ”

Pu Li replied casually: "It's really a coincidence." Suddenly I felt that something was wrong, and when I woke up, I jumped up with a strange scream, took half a step back, and made a fighting posture. Cover up and grin and stand up.

At this time, the guy happened to bring in wine and food, and when he saw this posture, he was stunned and stood there. The two hesitated for a moment, forced a smile in unison, and then sat down cross-legged under pretending to be calm. The guy was also inexplicable, panicked, put down the wine and food and left quickly.

Seeing that the guy was gone, Pu Li picked up the incense burner by the window, covered it and jumped back again and again, waved his hands and said: "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, this incense burner is very expensive, and if you break the store, you will have to pay for it." ”

Frightened by his words, Pu Li raised the incense burner and looked at it, and gently put it back to the window. Gai said, "That's it." We sat down and talked slowly. ”

The two sat back at their respective tables, covered their hands and picked up the lacquered ear cups and said, "Drink first, drink first." After speaking, he took a sip. Pu Li stared at him warily and took a sip of wine.

Gai smiled and said: "You and I seem to be hostile, but in fact, there is no grudge, each is his own master." The Prime Minister's Mansion and the Jingzhao Mansion are all imperial court offices, and they are under the control of the Son of Heaven, so we can do our part. Right? ”

When Pu Li heard this, he bowed his head and said nothing, only caring about eating and drinking.

Gai said: "Today's wine money, but the reward for reporting the death of the maidservant of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Pu Li looked up at him in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

He spread his hands and said, "My wine money today is a reward for reporting Jing Zhao Yin's questioning of Master Xingshi." ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, then laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

Gai Qi asked, "Brother Pu is not from Chang'an, right?" ”

Pu Li said: "I am a native of Guanghan in Yizhou, and I have only been in Chang'an for a year. It's only been a few months since I went to Jingzhao Mansion to do things. Jing Zhaoyin thinks that I am born and can act as a fine worker. ”

Gai nodded and said, "I've been in Chang'an for many years. Brother Pu, if you want me to say, Prime Minister's Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion, those discords between them are not for us to worry about. We will do whatever our master wants us to do, and we will do our duty as a servant. If you want to hurt your life, it's better to avoid it early. ”

Pu Li thought for a while, covered it up and said: "Brother Pu, I'm straightforward, you just listen to it." You are from Jingzhao Mansion, but I still have to say that although Jingzhao Yin Zhao Guanghan is talented, he has a perverse personality and violent behavior, and he is not like an old prime minister, and he will inevitably get into trouble one day. ”

Pu Li's face turned pale when he heard this, and he arched his hand and said: "I'm a foreigner, I can figure out this kind of thing there, thank you Brother Gai for reminding me." ”

Gai said: "No thanks. In the future, you do your fine work, I do my fine work, and we each have our own masters, after all, it is still for reward. Yes and no, I know it in my heart. ”

Pu Li nodded frequently and said, "If there is danger, I hope Brother Gai will remind you." ”

Gai replied, "It's natural. He smiled again: "I have been out for a long time, and I have eaten and drunk enough, so I will say goodbye first." Then he got up and left.

Pu Li didn't have the heart to drink anymore, so he sat in a daze for a long time.

Jingzhao Yin and Zhao Guanghan stirred up the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the younger brother of the party woke up leisurely. When she opened her eyes, it was white at first, and gradually, the scene became clearer. He lay on a couch, surrounded by a light curtain, rippling in the wind, and looking up again, it seemed to be a roof, with a few wooden beams and two neat rows of rafters. She wondered, what kind of place is this? After thinking for a moment, it suddenly dawned on me that I had committed suicide by throwing myself into the water, and this should be in the sky, and I wondered how the roof in the sky was not much different from the world.

She tried to sit up, but she felt weak, held her breath, put her hands on the ground, and finally sat up.

She shook her head, rubbed her eyes, and muttered in her mouth, but she heard a burst of laughter, and turned her head to see a girl as big as her, with big black eyes, and a smile on her face.

The younger brother was first shocked, and then relieved, thinking that he was not alone in this sky. She was not afraid of life, and said, "I'll call my brother, my sister is good." ”
