After Chen Wen and Wang San sent the horses back to the post station, they went straight to the county yahoutang.

On the front hall of the county government, a group of officials on duty just saw Chen Wen and the others, and they swarmed around, and before the two of them could catch their breath, everyone asked this and that.

"Brother Chen, why are there just the two of you, Liu Bantou?"

"Is something wrong, Fourth Brother Zhang? Is it with Liu Bantou?"

"Hey, Fat Wang, tell me what's going on?"

.........

Chen Wen saw that everyone was noisy and shouting, asking non-stop, coughing heavily, he looked around, and the officials saw that he looked solemn and looked at each other.

Seeing that everyone stopped, Chen Wen turned his head to Wang San and said, "You are waiting here, I will go to the back hall to find Lord Xiancheng." ”

Wang San nodded.

Seeing that Chen Wen's figure had disappeared into the corridor of the back hall, all the officials looked at Wang San with an honest expression.

Chen Wen walked through the corridor and hurriedly walked into the back hall, where he saw Lord Cheng Huang of the county holding a cup of tea, standing in front of a window and admiring the flower garden in the backyard.

Hearing the footsteps, the middle-aged man standing in front of the window in civilian clothes frowned slightly, thinking that this group of guys was really getting more and more unruly, and it was time to stand up and frustrate their inertia.

He turned around, raised his eyebrows, and just wanted to scold a few words, when he heard a familiar voice in his ear, "Uncle, something is wrong." ”

Lord Huang paused slightly, put down the teacup unhurriedly, said in a stern voice, and said to the visitor: "How many times have I told you, in the yamen, you have to call Lord Huang in the yamen, public and private, no rules, what kind of system?"

Chen Wen's face was calm, he didn't know how many times he had heard this sentence, and he immediately arched his hand, "My lord, something big has happened." ”

The county lord blew his beard and glared, and the tea he just drank almost spit out, "When can you change your lazy temperament?" What can happen to me, adult, bastard boy, if you have something to say." ”

Chen Wen smiled, turned around and came to the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing this scene, Lord Xiancheng shook his head slightly, it seems that there is really an urgent matter, nine times out of ten, as Liu Ling said before, it was the Miao people of the Five Immortals Sect who made the ghosts.

Chen Wen drank two cups of tea, relieved himself, and then told the county lord what Liu Bantou said before.

Huang Weihe's face was ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Go, you have to be more careful yourself, don't be reckless in case of trouble, once you find a suspicious trace in the city, come back immediately and report it to me, you know?"

Chen Wen looked strange, this was the first time he had seen his uncle so cautious.

Huang Weihe, the county lord, waved his hand, "What do you see, if something happens to your kid, how can I explain it to your mother, do you really think that I don't know that you have peeked at that file? Since you know about this, you should know the methods of those Miao people, remember not to be reckless in everything, not to make your own opinions, you know?"

Chen Wen pursed his mouth, hurriedly ran away, and if he didn't leave, he would have to nag endlessly, he was also very suspicious, in the past it may have been like this in his uncle's house, but he has never been like this in the yamen, what's wrong today?

Waiting for Chen Wen to go away, Huang Weihe refilled a cup of tea for himself, stood in front of the window again, looked at the flower garden in the back garden, looked calm, and thought about his thoughts.

Is it finally coming? He snorted coldly and frowned slightly, but it was much earlier than expected, and I don't know how the adults made the decision, it seems that I have to go to the prison mansion.

Chen Wen went out of the back hall to the front hall, and after passing the order of the county lord, he took a group of officials out of the yamen and went out on the street in civilian clothes.

The group was divided into four places, and the four gates were checked, and Chen Wen and Wang San were in a separate group and went to the north gate.

Drunken Flower Building, Warm Fragrance Pavilion.

The back room of the maid Jade had been taken over by some scoundrel who pretended to be drunk, and the snoring was like thunder.

On the side of Miao Shudie's incense pavilion, the master and servant sat at the end of the pear flower case, and one of them was talking about the boudoir of their daughter's house.

Cui Yatou was holding a green shirt in her hand, which she brought from the tea table when she sent someone back to the house.

The little girl lowered her head and spread the green shirt on the side of the warm table, and a large wine stain on the chest of the green shirt was clearly visible.

Jade looked at the wine stain, frowned, and didn't know what to do.

Miao Shudi looked at the two wine glasses on the table, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't know whether she was satisfied that she had succeeded in her plan and tried someone's fox tail, or whether she was laughing at someone's alcohol consumption, which was not as good as one of her daughters.

She lifted her hand lightly, poured the full glass of wine back into the flask, and listened to the sound of sound sleep coming from the side room, and her mind was turning.

Shameless, he was really pretending to be drunk.

It was the first time she had seen such a scoundrel, but for some reason, she didn't feel disgusted in her heart.

Miao Shudi simply tidied up the table of the pear blossom table, gently put the untouched pot of wine on the vermilion wooden wine holder, and said to the girl who was frowning: "Cuiyu, you send this pot of wine back to the kitchen, and take some food by the way." ”

The little girl asked tentatively, "Miss, are we going to eat in the room tonight?"

Miao Shudie replied: "Yes, yes, I will eat in the room tonight." ”

Jade looked into her young lady's eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, and walked out of the room with the tray containing the pot of wine.

Miao Shudi listened to the footsteps of the maid gradually moving away, she stood up, turned around and walked to the cabinet's boudoir.

After a while, when she came out again, there was an extra cotton cloth towel embroidered with a big red camellia in her hand, and a white and smooth fragrant pancreas rested on it.

By the time the maid Cuiyu came back, Li Yunfeng's green shirt covered with wine stains had been neatly hung on the hanger near the window at the moment.

The little girl didn't have to think about it to know that it was made by her own lady, she quietly put the food box she was carrying on the pear flower table, and tiptoed towards the inner room of her young lady's boudoir.

On the other side of the pleasant boudoir, a beautiful woman in a goose-yellow elegant long dress sat in front of the windowsill, holding her cheeks, thinking about the sunset in the west.

On the dressing table with both hands, there are a few square notes, and the ink is particularly fresh.

There are a few small poems on it, which are the two poems that Li Yunfeng praised the camellia and the Lingren before, the handwriting is elegant and beautiful, flying and smart.

If Li Yunfeng is here at the moment, he will be greatly amazed, as if it should be like this, the font structure is even, beautiful and colorful, just like the woman is elegant on the surface, free and easy in the inside, quite the charm of "Cao Quanbei" in later generations.

Qing Qi'er does not sell his body, he is dignified and quiet, the strings are wishful on the outside, and he is talented and graceful.

On the side of the vertical door of the boudoir, a little girl with a round face played with the embroidered curtain in front of the door to probe her brain.

Miao Shudi wants to laugh a little, and the dead girl will make a ghost.

She stood up and walked towards the outhouse, the maid Cuiyu swished back her head, and sneakily ran back to the edge of the pear blossom case outside, just as if she had just arrived, she didn't see anything, she didn't know anything.

Miao Shudi came to the side of the warm table, opened the food box and looked at it, there was a bowl of rice on the top layer, and two exquisite dishes were placed on each of the lower two floors.

Miao Shudi was just about to lift the food box, but the little maid Cuiyu hurriedly reached out and took it, "Miss, let's come." After speaking, he didn't forget to glance at his young lady.

The woman in the goose-yellow elegant dress was teased by her own maid, her angry little face was slightly red, and she stretched out her hand to fight. The round-faced little girl knew that something was wrong, so she picked up the food box and ran, reaching out to make a cheek support movement while running.

Miao Shudi stomped her feet, "Dead girl, wait for me to come back and take care of your skin!"

The little maid didn't care about this and grimaced.

When the young lady pushed open the door and went straight away, Cuiyu carried the food box into her room.

In the small room, the light was dim, and it was because he had beaten the boy to get drunk until now, and before he knew it, almost two hours had passed.

The sunset hanging in the west gradually sank.

Cuiyu gently put the food box on the round table tea table, looked at the inner room, and saw that the son lying on the bed had not woken up, so he lightly lifted the rust curtain and found a piece of red wax in the shelving drawer in front of the bed.

Carefully close the shelving, turn around and pick up the candlestick on the table against the wall, the little girl felt out the fire fold, blew it gently, a grain of light fluttered on, and the room was full of soft light.

The little girl Jade took a look at the room by the light of the candlestick, familiar and unfamiliar.

Since when did you have to be left alone? Since when is it time to be alone?

It seems that five years ago, there was such a person, and the happiest thing he did every day was to wait for him to come home.

In the small room, it was quiet and peaceful, and a little girl with a round face was stunned.

Unconsciously, the little girl Cuiyu only felt that her heart was bulging and sour, as if something was about to pop out, how many years, has the brother she longed for really come back?

She picked up the candlestick and walked gently to the bedside, hoping to see the person's appearance clearly by the candlelight, and the familiar appearance that was gradually blurring in her mind.

At the head of the bed, the son who was sleeping sideways opened his eyes with a pair of clean and clear eyes, full of doubts?

The little girl stared at those beautiful eyes for a long time, as if she couldn't find the ideal answer in her mind, a little disappointed, faint, as if holding tears.

Li Yunfeng wondered in his heart, what do you mean, you have a disappointed expression on your face, your eyes are swollen, are you crying ugly?

He blinked, and the little girl was indifferent.

He coughed lightly, blinked again, and the little girl in front of him was a spirit, and finally returned her soul.

Mom, the little girl Jade screamed, she covered her mouth with one hand, held the candlestick in the other, and retreated again and again, the lamp swayed in the wind, fluttering, like a panicked firefly, scurrying around.

Li Yunfeng hurriedly jumped up in fright, and reached out to take the candlestick from the little girl's hand, for fear that if she was not careful, the candlestick would fall on the bed, and the two pots of wine before suffered such a disaster.

Anyway, within this day, the little girl was scared twice in a row, this is fate, you have to leave quickly!

Li Yunfeng was secretly slandering himself in his heart, and after the little girl saw the person in front of her, she immediately quieted down, but she just stretched out her hand and kept patting her chest, gasping slightly.

Li Yunfeng was depressed, and the little girl in front of the meeting seemed to be frightened, and asked, "Where is your lady?"

The little maid Cuiyu opened her mouth before she met, and finally found a long-lost sense of security, as if she felt that her previous behavior was too embarrassing, she lowered her head and said in a weak voice: "At this time, my lady should go to the front hall to eat." ”

Li Yun turned his head to look out the window, the sun had set in the western mountains, and the dark night was gradually showing its outline.

He had planned to pretend to be drunk before, but after thinking about it, if he was really such a scoundrel and slept in a Qingqi'er for a night, if it was spread out, and gossip flew everywhere when the time came, it would have been nothing, but it had become something, and his reputation was gone, and how would the girl gain a foothold in the future?

was just tossed by the two girls' families, this warm and soft heart, Li Yunfeng was a little happy at that time, lying on the little girl's bed, his thoughts were flying.

His intuition told him that this was wrong, but since he came here, he had never slept well, and although he kept a trace of clarity in his mind, he really couldn't stay tired, and he fell asleep in a trance.

It wasn't until I heard the movement of the little girl that I woke up leisurely.

Unexpectedly, this sleep was actually slept until sunset, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner.

Li Yunfeng looked at the little girl with his head lowered on the side, a little embarrassed, he held the candlestick and said softly: "Oh, that's it, then why don't you go to dinner with your lady?"

Cuiyu raised her head, a little lonely, "Those of us who are maids can't eat at the same table with our own ladies." ”

The little girl seemed to remember something when she said, the corners of her mouth curled, and she was a little happy, "It's just that my lady treats people very well, and every time there is no one, she always comes to eat with me, and in private she is like a sister." ”

Li Yunfeng smiled slightly and quipped: "No wonder, so the knocking action you had with your lady before was some kind of code that your lady taught you in private?"

The little girl covered her mouth, incredulous, thinking that the son in front of her was worthy of being a scholar, she knew it!

When Li Yunfeng saw her expression, he knew that he had probably guessed correctly again.

That Miao lady is really a big heart.

In fact, to put it mildly, it is still wishful thinking on the part of our eldest prince Li, and he is just amorous, Miao Shudi originally planned to wait for him to wake up and send off the guests, even if someone is a scoundrel, he really cuts his face, and he really thinks that the little guy in the yard is a decoration?

Even if you have a bit of poetic talent, I can't even be reserved after a girl's family has met for less than a day!

Do you really think that Miss Miao will stay with you?

Do you really think the old lady doesn't know that you're pretending to be drunk?

Didn't you let Jade bring you a food box and a bowl of sobering tea?

Li Yunfeng is secretly proud, when did he grasp the hearts of his daughter's family so well, how can he guess it!

The little girl on the side didn't know what the son in front of her was happy about, and said coldly: "Childe, you just woke up and still have a headache, right? ”

Li Yunfeng drank three glasses of wine this afternoon, and he was already hungry, and when he heard the little girl say that he had brought food, his stomach immediately growled with hunger.

Cuiyu covered her mouth and chuckled, Li Yunfeng covered her stomach and looked helpless.

The two turned to the outer room, the little maid opened the food box, took out the bowl of sobering tea, said that it was for the son to drink first, and said that if the son still needs to drink, only one drink, the lady said that the son can not be drunk again, remember that her own lady also specially reserved the pot of wine for the son to drink yet.

Li Yunfeng knew that this was the little girl's excuse to leave, and he didn't break it, he really ate here, it was hard to say whether she had eaten a girl or not, she would never agree to eat with her, it would be embarrassing to stay here.

Waiting for the footsteps of the little girl Jade to echo on the other side of the corridor, Li Yunfeng picked up the bowl, and the wind swept away.

In my heart, I said that I can't let my little girl wait for a long time, right?

It was worth half a cup of tea, Li Yunfeng ate and wiped it clean, blew out the candlelight, neatly carried the food box in his hand, and walked to the outside of the main house with satisfaction.

At the end of the three-fold flower and bird screen, two candles have been lit.

The little girl Cuiyu was sitting at the tea table near the window, bored with one hand holding her cheeks, and the other hand playing with the peach branch inserted in the mouth of the bottle.

is the same as the previous Miao Shudie, the master and servant are the same.

I don't know what the little girl was thinking so intrigued, until the soft candlelight, the black shadow on the wall flashed, she realized that there was someone behind her, and she hadn't even heard the footsteps before.

Cuiyu stood up suddenly, and saw that Li Yunfeng was standing behind her at the moment, still carrying the food box in his hand.

The little girl's face turned red, she reached out to take the food box, and said to Li Yunfeng: "Son, your clothes are dry, you can change them here, I'll wait for you outside." ”

After speaking, he carried the food box, ran out in a hurry, and closed the door with his hand.

Li Yunfeng only felt inexplicable, why are the little girls here so strange? First of all, when he looked at himself at the candlestick, his eyes were still red and swollen, why did he blush again now?

When he came to the wall where his clothes were hung, Li Yunfeng reached out and touched it, and the place where the wine stains on his chest were already dry.

He retracted his hand and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it, and the fragrance was pleasant.

Take off your green shirt and hang the gray wide-sleeved kaftan on the hanger.

Li Yunfeng shook his hands slightly, and a boxy note slipped leisurely down his green shirt and fell to the ground.

He leaned down, picked up the note, and looked at it, smiling intoxicatingly.

After getting dressed, Li Yunfeng came to the small table of the pear flower case, and under a book of "Flower Language and Tea Fragrance", he found the cotton cloth towel of the big red camellia, which was wrapped in the hundred taels of silver tickets from Wansheng Qianzhuang.

Li Yunfeng put the square towel into his arms along with the silver ticket, and after just a few steps, he turned around, and then neatly folded the gray wide-sleeved robe hanging on the hanger, and placed it safely on the pear flower table, with the book "Flower Language Tea Fragrance" pressed on it.

Pulling open the door, Li Yunfeng only felt full of energy.

When the little girl Cuiyu waited for a long time with a lantern, Li Yunfeng looked at her, saw her yawning, and unconsciously reached out and rubbed the little girl's head, smiling intoxicatingly.

The maid Cuiyu led the way with a blank face.

On the side of the peach blossom courtyard, a woman in a goose-yellow elegant dress stood under a peach tree, looked at the direction in which the two left, stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and smiled and bent over.

It turned out that someone took advantage of the little girl's absence to distinguish the authenticity and see if the guy was pretending to be drunk.

It's just that when she tiptoed up the rusty curtain, she saw that the guy was drooling, snoring slightly, and sleeping like a dead pig.

On the small table at the head of the bed, a few taels of silver were quietly placed.

Under the peach blossom tree, Miao Shudie took a sip lightly, "Just a few taels of broken silver, I'm afraid of sleeping with my waist, hum!"
