Smoke and dust lane, a big rouge in Chang'an, women's clothes are sold. The whole street is built in the Jiangnan style, the ground is paved with bluestone slabs, and each shop has dark green columns that are not thick, and rhombic windows and doors. The wall is carved with water brocade patterns and water cloud belts to express the meaning of fire prevention. The roof is covered with black glazed tiles, and the eaves are covered with green glazed tiles. The overall color is green and green, adding a sense of quiet, elegance and nobility.

Unlike the hustle and bustle of other streets, this street is not noisy, although it is bustling with people. Perhaps, because most of the people who come here are beauty-loving women who pay attention to their image. The buildings are cold and the people's clothes are brightly colored.

Xu Yunshen followed the road, and after coming here, his eyes lit up, as if he was in a hundred flowers. There are also a few green leaves, but they will automatically ignore each other.

He thought about it, and he was a little uncertain, not knowing if he had enough money to buy something he liked.

Xu Yunshen looked for a small shop, looked up, and saw the sign of "Tianyi Pavilion" hanging on it.

As soon as he entered, Xu Yunshen regretted it a little. Because, the interior of Tianyi Pavilion is not as inconspicuous as it seems, and the decoration is exquisite and decent, and it is noble.

"What do you need to buy? A shopping guide in a skirt saw someone coming in, walked to Xu Yunshen from the waiting area, gave a salute, and asked softly.

Xu Yunshen touched his head and said, "I...... I want to pick up some gifts for others. ”

"Okay, what direction do you want a gift? I'll take you to the relevant area. The shopping guide smiled and asked.

"Direction...... What's the direction?" Xu Yun was stunned.

The shopping guide has also received several newcomers, and they replied with experience: "There are rouge, clothes, and small playthings." ”

Rouge...... I haven't seen Xiaoyu use it, clothes, what should be wanted, and I haven't seen her wear anything else. So Xu Yunshen said: "Clothes." ”

Then Xu Yunshen was brought to a row of luxurious dresses that blinded him......

"Uh...... How much is this?" He casually pointed to a piece of clothing with a brand titled Qing Yuxi.

The shopping guide blinked and said, "Only six hundred and twenty taels." She also saw that the newcomer didn't have much money in her pocket, but her professionalism didn't make her show any impatience.

"Six hundred and twenty taels ......" Xu Yunshen calculated, he probably had to work for a month to earn enough.

It's really silver that stumps heroes.

"Why don't we go and see the small things?" When Xu Yun groaned deeply, the shopping guide suggested very intimately.

Xu Yunshen nodded, and was just about to move, when he saw a familiar white figure coming in at the door. He thought about it for a moment and said happily: "Ruan Meizhi!"

The sound was quite loud, causing many people in the store to look sideways and frown.

Ruan Meizhi came here to purchase a ceremonial dress, after all, Tianyi Pavilion is famous. She followed the prestige, and there was a familiar light—bald head.

Ruan Meishu raised his forehead and said in his heart: How is he.

She walked lightly, which was very different from her heroic posture when she was with Xu Yunshen.

"Why are you here?" Ruan Meizhi carefully looked at this acquaintance who had not seen him for a few months, the one who had rushed into his world and disappeared.

Xu Yunshen smiled and said, "I worked for a day today, and I heard that the things in this alley are very good, so I wanted to buy a gift for Xiaoyu, after all, she helped me a lot." ”

"You guys......" her eyes darkened, "are you together?" Please take the road down. ”

"Yes, Miss Nguyen. The shopping guide replied.

Looking at Xu Yunshen's questioning eyes, Ruan Meizhi said proudly: "I'm a frequent customer here, and everyone in the store knows me." ”

On the second floor of Tianyi Pavilion, there is a tea room for guests to rest, about three private rooms, only VIPs can enjoy, now there are two empty rooms, Ruan Meizhi picked one casually.

The maid served a pot of flower tea, and after pouring it, Ruan Meizhi let him retreat.

"Where did you just go?" Xu Yunshen was as rough as ever, and he had forgotten what the topic was just now, so he asked.

"Song in the Jade...... What is the relationship with you now?" Ruan Meizhi organized his words, his eyes complicated.

Xu Yun thought deeply for a while, and was entangled: "What does it matter? I am in Wen Zijian's dormitory, and she lives in as a relative. ”

Ruan Meizhi's eyes became more complicated.

Xu Yunshen continued: "However, although we live together, we don't do the business of husband and wife. Maybe they're all brothers to each other. ”

Ruan Meizhi tilted his head and asked, "Is there really a pure friendship between men and women?"

"Man is human precisely because he has wisdom and is able to restrain his desires at the right time. People are not animals that only act on instinct, not to mention that some animals are still a little smart. I can't even restrain my desires, so how can I talk about cultivation?" Xu Yun took a sip of flower tea, accidentally drank a few petals, chewed it, and it was sweet.

Ruan Meizhi laughed out loud and said, "Where did you see it?" When she knew that Xu Yunshen and Yuzhongge had nothing to do with each other, she actually put down a big stone in her heart, and she was also a little more relaxed.

Xu Yunshen also smiled, but didn't answer that sentence, and took another big sip, and half of the cup of tea was already down. He asked, "What about you? How have you come over the past few months, how have you changed so much?"

Seeing this, Ruan Meizhi raised his jade hand lightly and poured him a full cup.

After listening to Xu Yunshen's question, she sighed and said, "It's a long story. ”

"Then let's take it slowly. ”

Ruan Meizhi let out a "hmm", looked reminiscing, and said slowly: "Since we parted, I first sent Wu Pingtian to Wuzijian according to the instructions of the King of the North. ”

Xu Yunshen nodded and added, "I met him." ”

"I see you. Ruan Meizhi glanced at him faintly and continued: "Then I went back to the palace to find my imperial sister, who is now the queen. Originally, I was just going to talk to her about my family's shortcomings, but I didn't expect the emperor to suddenly arrive. ”

Xu Yunshen was still thinking about when Ruan Meizhi would go to Wuzijian, and when he heard the emperor, he asked curiously: "What does the emperor look like?"

"Human. Ruan Meizhi rolled his eyes, obviously not respecting the emperor, "Don't you ask him what he's here for?"

“...... What is he here for?" Xu Yunshen asked according to the script.

"He's here to pull the strong. When I heard that I was coming to my imperial sister in the imperial study, I hurried over. He intends to win over a family, using the means of harmony. However, he didn't have a daughter under his knees, so he set his sights on me. Then I was forced to learn etiquette for three months, and in two days I was going to a banquet. ”

Xu Yunshen suddenly realized and said, "No wonder you don't even wear a knife anymore." But......" Xu Yunshen changed his words, "who said that such gentleness is the only beauty? He took a sip of tea.

Ruan Meizhi's eyes seemed to have a lake of light flashing, and he said, "You really think so?"

"Isn't it?" Xu Yunshen asked rhetorically.

Ruan Meizhi smiled: "I haven't seen you for a few months, why have you become a philosopher." ”

Xu Yun scratched his head deeply, and suddenly, he thought of something, his expression moved, and asked, "Is there anything to eat here?"

"Yes, yes, somebody, come. Ruan Meizhi smiled even more, "It seems that your love of food has not changed." ”

A few plates of delicate snacks came up, Xu Yunshen frowned and didn't know how to eat.

"You don't have to worry about it so much, just eat it. Ruan Meizhi said.

Xu Yunshen grabbed a few and put them in his mouth, the soft and crispy texture coexisted, he raised his eyebrows and said, "It tastes good." ”

"You said earlier, where are you busy after a day's work?" Ruan Meizhi was still careful, remembering what he said when he first met, and asked.

Xu Yunshen gestured a few movements with his hand and said, "It's just to help people harvest crops and plow the land, which is quite an easy job." I'm going to do a favor at the fishing ground tomorrow. ”

“...... Are you having such a hard time now? Do you want me to help you find something to do? By the way, aren't you a guest of the prince's door, and he didn't provide you with some daily expenses?" Ruan Meizhi was dumbfounded, although she was a little mentally prepared, she still didn't expect a Buddhist master with extraordinary strength to go farming and fishing.

Buddha Dao? That must be cultivating meditation and cultivating the mind! Ruan Meizhi thought about it, regretting the quick mouth just now.

"Haha, no, no, the money ...... now" Xu Yunshen's haha suddenly stopped, because he thought of the price of a random skirt in Yige this day, "It should be...... Enough. Oh yes, I went to his place to eat too much, and I never thought about the salary. But I haven't helped him much, and I'm embarrassed to take the money. ”

Ruan Mei's eyes were crooked, and she looked out the window, the weather was just right, just like her mood.

She said, "Okay, aren't you going to buy a gift for Xiaoyu?" I'll accompany you to pick and choose." ”

Xu Yunshen was overjoyed, and it just so happened that he didn't know what the woman liked.

Ruan Meizhi and Xu Yunshen went to the small object area of Tianyi Pavilion, and finally Xu Yunshen finalized an elegant small incense burner, with a delicate and small structure, and the spices in it would not be poured out with the change of angle. The price is not cheap, it costs forty-five taels.

When it was time to separate, Ruan Meizhi hesitated for a moment and said, "Yunshen, in two days, can you accompany me to that banquet?" ”

"Absolutely. Xu Yunshen agreed when he heard the front, and when he heard that there was a salary, he added, "Who are we with, how can you be embarrassed to let you pay your salary...... How much is the salary?"

Ruan Meizhi laughed, left without looking back, and the voice came: "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Xu Yunshen waved his hand in the direction she left, and carried the box containing the small incense burner into his arms preciously.

Dust Smoke Lane is not far from Wen Zijian said, but it is not close.

Originally, it was already dark when Xu Yunshen arrived at Dusty Smoke Lane, and he chatted with Ruan Meizhi for a while, and when he arrived at the dormitory, it was already more than nine o'clock.

Xu Yunshen was quite happy on the road, but when he was about to arrive at the place, he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't plan to tell Yuzhong Ge Ruan Meizhi about it. Because his intuition told him that if he told the truth, he would die a miserable death.

"Xiaoyu, I'm back. Xu Yunshen pushed the door and entered.
