Li Qingxuan picked up a piece of wine-stuffed cake and tasted it, he immediately felt that the mouth was fragrant, sweet and sour, crisp and tender, and the taste was very delicious, which made him feel fragrant and endless.

Li Qingxuan just wanted to beckon Uncle Jian in the dining room to come over for breakfast, when he suddenly glanced in the direction of the mountain outside the door with a puzzled face.

Li Qingxuan whispered to himself: "Early in the morning, who will come to visit me? Listening to the footsteps, when there are seventeen or eighteen people, how can the breath of these people be familiar? It seems that they are from the Cui Mansion, could it be that Cui Yuanjun and others came to visit me?"

Thinking of this, Li Qingxuan straightened his clothes slightly, and then went out of the room. A moment later, a group of Suzhou government guards wearing soap clothes with horizontal knives hanging from their waists came to the door of the small courtyard of the bamboo house.

This group of government guards was surrounded by a middle-aged scribe, the middle-aged scribe had a white face, only about thirty-seven or eight, and the appearance of less than forty. The middle-aged scribe was Cui Huanzhi, the assassin of Suzhou, and the person who guarded Cui Huanzhi was Wang Yuan, who was seriously injured and dying before.

Because Wang Yuan was treated by Li Qingxuan, he was blessed by misfortune and cultivated to the realm of a great martial arts master in one fell swoop, Wang Yuan nodded at Li Qingxuan, and then took a step back behind Cui Huanzhi.

Cui Huanzhi saw Li Qingxuan standing at the door to greet him, and immediately said gently: "Bo Yu's nephew, this official took the liberty to visit today, and he didn't send anyone to inform you in advance, and I hope that Bo Yu's nephew will not blame this official." ”

Li Qingxuan gave Cui Huanzhi a slight salute, and said with an indifferent smile: "Uncle Shi came to visit so early, I don't think I have used breakfast yet, right? As the saying goes, it's better to come early than to come by chance, this morning my Uncle Jian made a lot of breakfast, which just made Uncle Shi feel good for you." ”

Cui Huanzhi listened to what Li Qingxuan said, and immediately said with a smile: "It seems that I am blessed, your family's Jian steward is good at cooking, and he is famous in the entire land of Wu County, since I have caught up today, then I will be disrespectful." ”

Li Qingxuan smiled and invited Cui Huanzhi into the courtyard. Seeing this, Wang Yuan, who was behind Cui Huanzhi, turned around and said to the rest of the people: "You are guarding outside the courtyard, and no one is allowed to step into this courtyard, and you can't hurt others at will, just stop outsiders outside the courtyard." ”

These guards with knives from the Suzhou Mansion responded in unison, and then surrounded the mountain road in front of the small courtyard of the bamboo house. Wang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and then stepped into the courtyard.

When Wang Yuan stepped into the main hall of the bamboo house, Cui Huanzhi and Li Qingxuan had already sat down as the guest of honor, Wang Yuan gave Li Qingxuan a slight salute, and then stood behind Cui Huanzhi.

Cui Huanzhi saw Wang Yuan standing behind him, and said with a smile: "Wang Yuan, you can also sit down and eat, there are no outsiders today, so you don't have to be constrained." Wang Yuan agreed to the promise and sat down in the position of the starter.

At this time, Uncle Jane, who had been busy in the dining room, walked out with a gui (gui) eight-flavor soup. Uncle Jian was slightly surprised when he saw Cui Huanzhi and Wang Yuan, and then put the eight-flavor soup on the wooden table.

After Uncle Jian put the eight-flavor soup, he was about to greet Cui Huanzhi and Wang Yuan, Cui Huanzhi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Steward Jian, everyone is an acquaintance, don't be so outside, a little polite, don't worry about it." ”

Li Qingxuan's Uncle Jian has been his father Li Jingzhi's scholar since he was a child, Li Jingzhi and Cui Huanzhi have a friendship with each other, and they are Jinshi in the same year, so Cui Huanzhi and Li Qingxuan's Uncle Jian can be regarded as old.

Although Cui Huanzhi said that there was no need to see the ceremony, Li Qingxuan's Uncle Jian still saw the ceremony, and after the ceremony, Li Qingxuan's Uncle Jian left the main hall.

Li Qingxuan originally wanted Uncle Jian to stay and dine together, but after thinking of the identities of Cui Huanzhi and Wang Yuan, he had no choice but to give up.

In normal times, Li Qingxuan would dine at the same table with Uncle Jian, but today is different, Cui Huanzhi and Wang Yuan both have official status, and Cui Huanzhi was born in the Boling Cui family, so some etiquette is unbreakable.

The family attaches great importance to the rules of etiquette, they think that it cannot be a square circle without rules, and when eating, the family pays attention to the meal. Cui Huanzhi and Li Qingxuan are both from big families, so they are eating silently, and there is no meaning of chatting while eating.

After the time of two teas, Li Qingxuan and the three of them had a good breakfast. Cui Huanzhi stroked his beard and said praisefully: "The cook who is in charge of the affairs is comparable to the Taihe Gong of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period." "Taihe Gong, a famous chef in Wu in the late Spring and Autumn Period, is famous for being proficient in roasting fish.

Wang Yuan echoed beside him and said: "What my lord said is that the chef who is in charge of the house, in the entire Suzhou Mansion, only the chef of Chun Zailou can match it. ”

Li Qingxuan coughed lightly and said with a faint smile: "Two adults, you don't come here just to come to my house for breakfast, right?"

Cui Huanzhi smiled and said, "I came here today, not only to come to your house for breakfast, but also to tell you other things, you might as well guess what I have to tell you?"

Li Qingxuan chuckled lightly and said lightly: "I'm not an immortal of an unpredictable prophet, how can I guess what Uncle Shi is going to tell me?"

Cui Huanzhi glanced at Li Qingxuan, and said with a smile: "Although you are not a heavenly immortal, you can be regarded as a land immortal, you asked me to build a golden sword for you last year, and now I have ordered someone to make it, I don't know when you need it?"

Li Qingxuan listened to what Cui Huanzhi said, and was slightly moved, to create a four-foot-long red gold sword, it takes a lot of money, even with Cui Huanzhi's net worth, it is not easy.

Thinking of this, Li Qingxuan said apologetically: "The younger generation has thanked Uncle Shi for his love, this red gold sword, the younger generation can't use it, Uncle Shi's kindness, the younger generation will never forget it." ”

Cui Huanzhi nodded lightly and said with a smile: "This red gold sword is made of fine red gold, and the craftsmen used are also skilled masters, and the subtle lines on the golden sword took three days to be carved, are you sure you can't use it?"

Li Qingxuan nodded slightly, he had already used the jade sword to cultivate the sword pill secret technique, and he really didn't need the red gold sword. Seeing this, Cui Huanzhi sighed slightly, he had already guessed Li Qingxuan's answer, but when he heard it with his own ears, he still sighed slightly in his heart.
