"In fact, it's not just small countries in the East China Sea that are good at this. Li Helin nodded to the ground on tiptoe, "It was in this land that there were such high-ranking people in the former Yasukuni. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Mi asked casually, "Who?"

Li Helin immediately noticed that Xiao Mi was distracted, tapped on the table, and his face was full of displeasure: "If the king is tired, today's lesson will be here." With that, he stood up and brushed his sleeves to leave.

Be attentive in class, even if the student is a son of heaven.

Xiao Mi quickly came back to his senses, apologized repeatedly, and finally coaxed the old man to change his mind, and asked again as sincerely as he could: "You said that Yasukuni also has a master of cultivating gods, which one is it?"

"Lou Shiliang. Li Helin snorted, "Have you heard of it? If you haven't heard it, it means that the king has not done his homework!"

Xiao Mi was stunned for a moment: "Lou, Lou Shiliang?, it's Lou Shiliang?!"

"Heh, this is also a strange person, he knows countless spells, but unfortunately his health is not good. Li Helin rubbed his chin and said, "I didn't live a long life." ”

Xiao Mi's heart was in turmoil, but he quickly grabbed a thread: "You wrote "The Biography of Lou Shiliang", which also mentions Shishen, but you are too busy to read it carefully. What the hell is his Shikigami?"

The last time Yan Shichu left Weiguo, he asked him to pay attention to the old history of the previous dynasty; this time he stayed in Shengyi, and the most important thing was to enter the Chongwen Hall to check the old people and old affairs of the previous dynasty, especially ...... Lou Shiliang.

Why is Yan Shichu so interested in Lou Shiliang?

"There are very few historical books that record the Lou Shiliang style god, and I have only found two books, both of which are secret histories in the palace. It can be seen that this matter was also little known at that time. The book describes that his Shikjin is a strange and beautiful female ghost, temperamental, prone to murder, but with great mana, he can call the wind and rain, and try to go out at midnight. ”

Xiao Mi's heart suddenly beat two beats faster. These descriptions are very consistent.

"By the way, this god still likes to be dressed in red. Li Helin smiled, "But according to my research, she may not be a ghost." ”

Xiao Mi's throat was a little dry: "What is it?"

"Although her appearance is indistinguishable from that of a ghost, I have noticed that Lou Shiliang's dinner is always extraordinarily rich. The people of Lou Mansion once boasted to outsiders that the monthly cost of eating and drinking in Lou Mansion was at least 700 taels of silver. Later generations commented on him for being extravagant, but Lou Shiliang lost his wife in the prime of life, and he did not continue until he died, and there was nothing under his knees, and there were only more than ten people in the huge mansion, even the cooks and gardeners. By the way, he has three cooks, one for the main dish and the other for the pastry. ”

Lou Shiliang lives alone in the mansion and spends 700 taels a month on food and drink? This food standard is higher than Xiao Mi's! Now that Wei Ting is advocating frugality, Xiao Mi sets an example by stipulating that his three meals are at most three dishes and one soup.

"You think it's all Shikigami who ate it?"

"Lou Shiliang's health is not good, how can his appetite be better?" Li Helin said with a smile, "I even read a secret story that Lou Shiliang once went to the western border with the army and met a strong opponent. The other party sacrificed a great killing weapon to exorcise evil spirits, but he was helpless to take his Shishen, and finally died aggrieved. ”

"It's been so long that no more evidence can be found. He regretted a little, "I can't deduce what that god is." ”

Xiao Mi's heart suddenly moved, "You just said that the master has to seal the Shishen in some magic weapons, so that he can be driven freely?"

"Of course. The artifact seals the god and is also the container in which it hides. Li Helin recalled, "I once saw a sorcerer summon Shikijin from a bamboo flute in the East China Sea, and he was a lucky boy. But he couldn't put it into his body, he could only carry it with him. I've seen him even sleep with a bamboo flute. ”

Xiao Mi muttered: "Looks accompanied, never left and right." ”

He sighed abruptly, and then asked Li Helin: "So, how did Lou Shiliang die in the end?"

"He was cursed in his early years and his health has been poor. Li Helin paused, "However, some historians in later generations believe that he committed suicide." But this is only speculation, not written into the official history. After all, he died alone, and no one around him witnessed it. ”

"He died early. Li Helin choked, "Otherwise, with him, Yasukuni may be able to hold out for a few more years." ”

Xiao Mi nodded slowly.

By the end of the lecture, the sun was already setting in the west.

Li Helin walked away, and Gonggong Li stepped in and said, "Your Majesty, you want to put dinner ......"

The word "where" did not come out, Xiao Mi's eyes flashed: "No need, I have to eat outside the palace." ”

"Huh?"

Xiao Mi paced to the window, holding her hands behind her back: "It's just right." You go and inform Yan Shichu that Lone is going to have dinner in the Invitation Garden, and he will be there in a while. ”

Gonggong Li hurriedly responded, and glanced out the window before turning around.

It was almost dark, the evening breeze was cool, and the dark clouds floated out of nowhere, covering most of the sky.

Is this called the right day?

......

King Wei's temporary intention made Invite Jingyuan almost turn on his back.

Originally, Yan Saburo planned to go to Donglin Restaurant to eat, but Chitose was full of praise for the sweet and sour fish and sealed meat there, because there was no food prepared at home. Now that the king of Wei is raiding, the back kitchen is in a mess, and the people must also seize the time to sweep the courtyard to welcome the holy guests.

Fortunately, the Invitation Garden is now fully staffed, and Huang He, as the general manager of the whole house, is gradually getting started, in short, when Xiao Mi is driving, everything he sees is in order.

Yan Saburo came up, and Xiao Mi smiled insincerely: "I'm causing you trouble, right?"

"The walls are shining, and I can't ask for it. Yan Saburo also knows that when he sees people, he has to talk to people, "The dinner party has been prepared." If you don't give us notice, you won't be able to prepare dishes that need to be stewed in advance. ”

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Mi also knows this truth, but his drunkard's intention is not to drink. Some of the chefs in Invite Jingyuan were assigned by him, can you still not know their skills?

Before dinner, he also had to visit the Invitation Garden.

In accordance with Chitose's request, apricot-yellow lanterns are hung in the courtyard at night, and some pillars are stuffed with night pearls, and the halo emitted is particularly gentle.

The spring snow has melted, and the branches are hanging with young shoots. Now that the sting has passed, the hibernating bugs have begun to chirp at night.

Xiao Mi walked in the courtyard of spring, watched the lights and trees and listened to the insects, and sighed sincerely: "Yan Shichu, you are more comfortable than the gods in this day!"

He's so jealous!

Yan Saburo coughed lightly, with a faint smile in his eyes: "The sky will descend on the Si people, and the people will ......."

"Alright, alright. Xiao Mi hurriedly waved her hand, "I've been in Master Li's class all afternoon, don't listen to you alone!"

If you have too much class, you will vomit!

He sighed again: "When will I be able to relax for a few days, and eat tea and enjoy flowers and amuse cats like you?"

"Anytime. Yan Saburo said leisurely, "It's just that the king is reluctant to give up his life." ”
