A small pot of pickled vegetables and rolling tofu can at least warm up for a while, but some people's stomachs are still hungry, and some people's mouths are also hungry.

It wasn't until the side stove was finally brought up that Qin Lang and his party were finally satisfied and were about to go home, but there was a knock on the door outside the private room.

Knock Knock Knock –

“？”

The knock on the door was very slight, and it was too respectful for ordinary guests, but Xiao Er of the Lion Building was not like this, so Qin Lang frowned:

"Who?"

"Qin Shaoxia, we were sent by Lord Huang, the prefect of Yangzhou, who returned from the capital and learned about the amazing performance of Shaoxia's heaven and earth, and I cherished my talent, so I specially ordered me to invite Qin Shaoxia to go to the mansion for a while."

Yangzhou prefect?

For some reason, Qin Lang instinctively felt a little bit like that when he heard the word "prefect".

"Come in."

Qin Lang answered, the door opened, and four young people walked in, Qin Lang was surprised.

Because although these four people look young, they can be judged from the almost silent footsteps that their kung fu is not shallow, and they are all excellent seedlings in martial arts.

"Qin Lang Shaoxia."

One of them clenched his fists and said:

"Lord Huang has always had the intention to invite the young man as a guest since he heard the name of the young man, and I hope that the young man will agree."

“……”

Qin Lang didn't reply, but exchanged glances with the girls.

The few people who came in also took advantage of this time to look at the other people on the table, only to find that in addition to a girl in black with her back and an innocent little girl, there was a woman in a red dress who couldn't see her face clearly.

They found that there was no mask or anything like that, but once they wanted to look at this woman, it was as if there was a layer of fog in front of them that they couldn't touch, or they couldn't record the other party's face at all.

Such a strange situation suddenly made several people realize that this Qin Lang was not only his own, but also accompanied by a master by his side.

"You Lord Huang, why did you come to invite me at this time?"

Qin Lang suddenly spoke, and the other party immediately replied:

"Lord Huang originally wanted to invite the young man to lunch, but it just so happened that the young man was already having lunch, so we didn't want to disturb us, so we waited until now to invite him."

"That is."

Qin Lang looked down at the table and took a sip of tea:

"Lord Huang is sending you to follow me?"

"This..."

The four visitors looked at each other, a little embarrassed, and were thinking about how to explain, Qin Lang waved his hand directly:

"I see, you lead the way."

"Yes, young man, please!"

"Qin Lang..."

Gu Jin pulled her boyfriend's hand, her eyes were worried, after all, the person who came was too sudden, who knows what happened to the prefect who asked someone to follow Qin Lang.

However, Qin Lang understands that this kind of thing, if the other party is really the prefect of Yangzhou, then his refusal will only attract more invitations, and he is annoyed, it is better to meet and say clearly at one time.

So, after whispering to comfort Miss Xia Jin, Qin Lang followed the four of them directly.

And Su Yupan and Zhuo Beibei obviously had similar thoughts to Qin Lang, so they didn't say anything at all.

Even said that Su Yupan, who had long been aware of the people being targeted around the Lion Tower, deliberately did not hide the breath of the group anymore, nor did he release any coercion, just to see what kind of person was sneaky.

"It turned out to be the prefect of Yangzhou, and it seems that it was his person who sneaked in after the ring."

Su Yupan muttered to himself, recalling this Huang Zhifu in his heart, and he had the impression that he was an official with relatively mediocre political achievements, but a pretty good reputation.

"Hmph, what good people can be if they like to play stalking."

Zhuo Beibei supported his cheeks with one hand, and fished in the copper furnace with chopsticks with the other:

"This surnamed Huang is definitely not a good official, and it doesn't matter if you are the emperor?"

"Managing people by imagination? Being an emperor is not a playmaker..."

"yes, I feel pretty much the same anyway."

“……”

Su Yupan didn't talk more about these things with Zhuo Beibei, she knew that it didn't make sense, after all, Zhuo Beibei didn't care about the Tianhe Sect he founded.

"But this Huang Youwan is a little strange, although they all say that he loves something or something, but I always feel... Is he in love a little too much? ”

As Zhuo Beibei said, it is not a good thing to send people to follow others.

In addition, Qin Lang once said that he encountered a beggar who was not low in martial arts, and the identity card dropped had the word [Juxian] written on it, and it happened that the [Juxian Pavilion] in Yangzhou was also divided into the Yamen boundary.

Originally, Su Yupan didn't think much about it when he learned about it, but now that the Yangzhou prefect has sent someone to follow Qin Lang, the two things are combined, and it seems that this prefect is a little weird.

At least for now, it seems that this Huang Wanyou, who does not have a high sense of presence in the imperial court, does not sit well in Su Yupan's heart for the time being.

The identity of a four-grade official of the imperial court does not sit well in the emperor's heart, this matter is small and small, and big and big.

So, the more Su Yupan thought about it, and he didn't know why he simply closed his eyes, and the moment he opened it after a while, his apricot eyes suddenly became a little more dignified and awe-inspiring.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Zhuo Beibei, who had just said that he was full, now ordered a plate of shiitake mushrooms and a thousand pieces of silk, eating with chopsticks and chopsticks, his cheeks bulging, and he looked at Su Yupan curiously with big eyes:

"It's really rare to see your expression like this in the past few days."

"Huan...?"

The empress was stunned:

"What kind of joy?"

"Didn't you?"

Zhuo Beibei stared at her without joy or sorrow:

"Don't you rejoice in Qin Lang's arms every day?"

"How can I!"

"No, no, what are you blushing for?"

"I..."

"Hmph..."

“……”

Zhuo Beibei snorted coldly, and Su Yupan, who heard one of the inexplicable sour smells, opened his mouth, although he didn't speak with his eyebrows raised, but the faint blush on her pretty face still made her a good empress, like a cardamom girl who had been exposed to her relationship, which made the girl Gu Jin on the side stunned.

This... Is it really holy?

Originally, they had been together all along, but now listening to what the Tianhe Sect Master said, Gu Jin also felt that Her Majesty the Empress had changed more and more since she came to Yangzhou Mansion.

Especially the so-called "joy", Gu Jin thought about it carefully, when Shengshang was with her boyfriend, all aspects seemed to be really getting more and more...

Thinking about it, the girl pursed her lips, and her mood gradually became a little depressed.

It wasn't until he returned to the inn that Su Yupan discovered the girl's strange appearance.

"Sumire, do you have anything on your mind?"

“……”

It's okay not to ask, some things, especially about feelings, about young first love, are often asked more often, the more aggrieved and sad they will be in their hearts.

Gu Jin was the same, when asked by the empress, the look of grievance in her expression was like a newlywed little resentful woman, Su Yupan felt funny, and repeatedly asked her a few times, Gu Jin mustered up the courage to murmur:

"I just don't know, Madame still remembers, she said that she was going to inspect Qin Lang, so she pretended to be the eldest lady..."

"This... yes..."

"But Sumire feels that Madame seems to be getting more and more real lately..."

“……”
