Yihong Courtyard, private room on the third floor.

A middle-aged man holds a soup spoon and stirs it back and forth in the steaming copper pot in front of him.

The ingredients in the copper pot are very simple, just simple tofu and pickles, and under the blessing of the heat wave, it exudes a rich bean fragrance and the fragrance of pickles, which makes people salivate.

The aroma of the collision between the tofu and the pickles made the man's index finger move, and he couldn't wait to pick up a piece of tofu and put it in his mouth, leaving a fragrance on his lips and teeth.

You can also feel the heat brought by the freshly cooked tofu in the tip of your mouth, and with this sour taste, it makes your taste buds open and have an endless aftertaste.

After the man swallowed the tofu, he squinted his eyes slightly, looked happy, and then picked up another piece of tofu and put it in his mouth. Feeling this familiar taste, the mood is more and more happy.

"Get up!"

"Let's try this pickled tofu together, it's a must." When the middle-aged man picked up a piece of tofu again, he seemed to remember something, and smiled at the man with a mask who was kneeling respectfully on the ground.

"It's a small passover."

When the masked man heard this, there seemed to be a trace of hesitation between his eyebrows, and after a little thought, he stood up.

"Oh, there's a bowl and chopsticks here, do it yourself!" The middle-aged man continued to enjoy the pickled tofu, casually nunu mouth, pointing to a pair of chopsticks.

"The little one is better to be respectful than to obey his fate." The masked man sat down slowly, only halfway on the mahogany stool, sitting upright.

Slowly picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of tofu and put it in the mouth, after tasting it carefully, there was no taste, it seemed that there was no salt, only the taste of tofu and a little pickle flavor, which was light.

Under the expectant gaze of the middle-aged man, the masked man enjoyed his face, as if he had eaten peerless delicacies from the mountains and seas, closed his eyes tightly, raised his head slightly, and swallowed after chewing a few times.

In an instant, the masked man suddenly opened his eyes, the starlight flickered, the aftertaste was endless, and he was full of praise, "Absolutely, I didn't expect that after the simple tofu and ordinary pickles collided together, there would be such a violent spark, it was really the best food I had ever eaten." ”

"It can be said that it is the best in the world, and it is not an exaggeration!" At the end, the masked man added.

The middle-aged man seemed to be very satisfied, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a light smile, "To be a man is to be like tofu, innocent and innocent, without any miscellaneous filters." ”

"Whatever you choose, you have to keep going."

"But in this era, if you want to survive, you can't be as simple as tofu, you have to add some pickles to it, and without changing its original intention, you can also put a protective film on him."

Hearing this, the masked man thought about it, read these words, and then replied, "The little one listens to the big one.... Teachings of the Lord! ”

Gently wiping off a little bean dregs from the corner of his mouth, the middle-aged man put down the silk handkerchief and asked casually, "How are things going?" ”

"Back to the old man, I have already followed your orders, and last night I had destroyed the Qinglong Hall branch of the Beggars Gang, and only one of them was left alive to return to the Vermilion Bird Hall."

"Now Lu Meng is in the Linhai Suzaku Branch, and he is seriously injured by a small sneak attack, and he is still unconscious." The masked man replied respectfully.

"Then what's going on with Lin Hai?" The middle-aged man picked up a cup of flower tea, took a sip of it, and asked.

"As you expected, sir, the brothers who were guarding outside saw a carrier pigeon flying out of Suzaku Hall in the morning, and according to your orders, the brothers did not make any interceptions."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression remained unchanged, as if he had already known the result, and after a low voice, he said slowly, "Good job, you step back first!" ”

"After a while, let Lao Fu fetch you some silver and give some to the brothers below. Also, you will stay here honestly for the past two days, and you will not be able to go anywhere without my permission. ”

"The little one understands!" The masked man nodded, and then frowned slightly, as if there was a hint of hesitation, and he stopped talking.

"What else?" Seeing this, the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked.

Hearing this, the masked man hesitated slightly, gritted his teeth, and said, "Damn it, it's just that yesterday, when we were dealing with the follow-up finishing work, we were bumped into by a person." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, a trace of killing intent suddenly appeared on the middle-aged man's calm face, and with the appearance of this killing intent, the entire private room seemed to be like an ice cave, which made the masked man creepy and shuddered.

"Damn it, please punish the master." The masked man hurriedly fell to his knees and buried his head deeply, uneasy.

For a long time, the middle-aged man still didn't speak, his right hand tapped the table in a rhythmic manner, and every time he tapped, the masked man felt his heart contract violently, and he trembled.

"Who is this man?"

After a long time, the masked man suddenly felt that the chill on his body seemed to subside, and when he saw the middle-aged man asking, he hurriedly replied, "It's a scholar, named Li Luodi." ”

"Brother Li Luo!" Hearing this, the middle-aged man's light flashed, this scholar, he saw it in Lulin Garden last night, but seeing that he was full of style, and with his strong logical thinking and reasoning ability, in just a few words, the real culprit of the helpless poisoning case of Jing Mingji and Dongchang was caught.

This son is thoughtful and talented, but he is a talent.

I don't know if I can win it over.

"It seems that your case, if you are discovered, it seems to be linked to this kid!" The middle-aged man seemed to think for a while, and suddenly asked.

"It's true that this kid broke it, and it has nothing to do with the two of them." The masked man nodded, as if he was a little unwilling.

After guessing correctly, the middle-aged man lowered his head and pondered for a while, then changed his voice and asked, "I heard that you have been quite close to Zhao Yan's son recently." ”

"Yes, the sect leader asked me to wait more and get closer to the children of officials."

"In addition, this guy also had a conflict with Brother Li Luo, and he also asked me for advice on how to get rid of the latter. After teaching a few tricks, the relationship should be more harmonious. It just didn't work out. The masked man replied, his expression slightly regretful.

"That's it, after the rumors of the past two days, you can find a way to involve Zhao Gang, and make sure that his father is also involved."

"If necessary, it's okay to sacrifice Zhao Gang's waste, so that Zhao Yan, the old guy, will bite people at all costs." As if thinking of something, the middle-aged man raised a smile on the corner of his mouth and said lightly.

"This small thing is already being arranged." The masked man replied respectfully.

"Stand down, remember, it's not an example."

Hearing this, the masked man was overjoyed, stood up, and wanted to withdraw from the private room. Then he heard a warning that frightened him.

"By the way, Zhao Gang's handmaid who gave you the goods, I think you should be tired of playing these two days, so hurry up and deal with her."

"Otherwise, I'll ..... you"

Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man didn't look at the latter's face, and directly waved his hand to let him retreat.

The masked man who exited the private room was shocked, and suddenly found that his clothes were full of sweat, and it turned out that all his actions were under the surveillance of the middle-aged man.

It's just that I don't know if he knew that last night, Li Luodi almost caught the fifth and seventh brothers.

If this matter is known by the middle-aged man, he will definitely let him solve the old five and two, ruthless, unscrupulous means are the man's endorsement.

"Brother Li Luo.... No matter what, you are also the culprit who harmed my eldest brother, and the account will be settled with you slowly. ”

The masked man slowly raised his head, and under the mask was a bewitching and beautiful face, and the red mole under the tip of his eyebrows was extremely bewitching.

This person turned out to be a little red, and it can also be said that he is one of the triplets.
