King Wuyou sent King Chen to take pictures of Xiao Tianyou's discussion with him. He first sent a secret letter to King Qi, and then rushed back to Lucheng in person to report to King Qi in person.
King Qi and King Wuyou discussed carefully and believed that the main problem of Qi State at this time should still be the war in Shu State, and it was not appropriate to intervene in Chen State for the time being. If external forces intervened, it would unite Chen State and
Unanimous external affairs; and the worries of Qi State are relieved, King Chen will focus on dealing with the eldest prince and the third prince. Although King Chen may be able to seize the power, the internal fighting between the brothers will inevitably weaken the strength of Chen State. By then, the war of Shu will be over.
, Qi State was connected to all parts of the southwest, forming a double-teaming force against Chen State and Qin State. At that time, it was decided whether to attack Qin or Chen.
The King of Qi had made a plan and secretly ordered King Wuyou to quietly go to Chen in his personal capacity to keep abreast of the developments in the Chen Kingdom.
After receiving the decree, King Wuyou said goodbye to King Qi, went home to meet King Ping and his mother, and then returned to his palace. When the family members saw the prince coming back, they greeted him one after another, and then they all looked behind King Wuyou in unison.
King Wuyou knew that it had been more than two months since Ying'er went to Wutai Mountain, and he had not come back. His family was used to him and Ying'er being together. Now that he was the only one back, his family would inevitably be confused.
King Wuyou also felt a little lonely, so he walked to his room. The room was still clean, and everything was placed as usual. When he walked into the inner room, the tent was still there.
, but the beauty was thousands of miles away. King Wuyou sighed before he knew it, walked over, and gently touched the quilt pillow where the two slept together, as if the fragrance was still there. King Wuyou chuckled lightly,
Shaking his head, he turned around and walked out.
An old gardener saw King Wuyou, said hello with a smile, and then asked: "Young Prince, why didn't the young princess come with you? The lotus and water lilies in the back garden are all blooming. These are her favorite things."
like!"
King Wuyou smiled at the old gardener and said, "Uncle Zhao, the young princess will come back with me in a few days. Then I will see the flowers you are tending!"
The old gardener laughed, nodded, and then seemed to remember something. He asked King Wuyou to wait a moment, and then he ran to the back garden. King Wuyou was stunned, but he stopped and waited. After a while, the old gardener
He put a few budding lotus flowers in a porcelain vase and hurried over. King Ashoka looked at him and smiled unconsciously. He hurriedly went up to him and reached out to take the vase.
King Wuyou took the road to Lincheng and secretly discussed with Zhuge Qingyun for a long time, and then took Lu Zheng and set off for Chen State. This time he still traveled with the porcelain caravan. When he arrived at Qi Ci Fang in Luo City, the caravan carried the goods
After unloading, King Wuyou went directly to the back building.
King Wuyou held the porcelain vase in his hand. The lotus had long since withered, and only two flower stems were still green and immersed in the water. Ever since Gu Yuetian was transferred to King Wuyou, the business here has been taken over by shopkeeper Shi.
Shopkeeper Shi was a young man, but he was capable. Soon after he took over the store, he got along very well with the gentry and officials in Luo City. With Master Youxiao's care, Qi Ci Fang's business in Luo City was always booming.
When shopkeeper Shi saw that King Wuyou was silent and just nodded to everyone, he went to the back building with a porcelain vase with a flower stem. He also felt strange, so he secretly called Gu Yuetian to ask: "Fox, the prince is here."
What happened?"
Gu Yuetian glanced at him sideways, with disdain on his face, and asked, "Do you want to know?"
Shopkeeper Shi nodded and said, "I think so!"
Gu Yuetian turned to look at him, and then whispered: "I don't know either~"
When Shopkeeper Shi heard this, he raised his hand and slapped him. God, Gu Yue would be hit by him, so he dodged. Then he pointed at Shopkeeper Shi and said, "You bastard, how dare you plot against me!" Shopkeeper Shi waved,
He said to Gu Yuetian: "Come on, I plot against you, and you can still escape?!"
Gu Yuetian approached, smiled, and said: "The prince came out from Lucheng with this vase. It was still a bud at first, and it bloomed all the way. After thanking him, he didn't throw it away. After a few days, it has become a flower vase now."
Are there two poles?"
Shopkeeper Shi nodded and said to Gu Yuetian: "Oh, I understand. Ying'er must have given this to her before leaving, otherwise how could he cherish it so much." Gu Yuetian twisted his nose and did not answer.
The owner of Qi Ci Fang came to Luo City, which was not a big event, but Mr. Xiao, the commander of the Forbidden Army in Luo City, often visited it every day.
A few days later, a young girl came to Qi Ci Fang, saying she wanted to see Mr. Qi. Shopkeeper Shi heard this from inside, and signaled the waiter to bring someone over. Shopkeeper Shi looked at the girl and saw that there were ten
She was about seven or eight years old, but she was pretty and looked smart. Shopkeeper Shi smiled and asked, "This girl, do you know what business you have with our young boss?"
The maid said: "You are the shopkeeper, right? You look like a stable and polite boss. Your business here must be booming. I am the maid from Fengyue Tower. My girl is an old friend of Mr. Qi. I heard that Mr. Qi is here. Let me
I’ll come over to invite you.”
Shopkeeper Shi nodded, asked the maid to sit aside, and then ordered a waiter to relay the words and ask him to go back and report to the boss. Then Shopkeeper Shi chatted with the little girl wordlessly. At first
The little maid still kept asking questions. After saying a few words, Shopkeeper Shi asked her and told her everything.
At this time, King Wuyou also walked out with the waiter, and saw that shopkeeper Shi was chatting animatedly with the maid. Shopkeeper Shi made the little girl giggle. Seeing King Wuyou come out, shopkeeper Shi started to laugh.
Welcoming him, he said to King Wuyou: "This is Miss Xinyi's maid, her name is Xiao Zhi. She said she came to invite my master to sit down at Fengyue Tower."
King Wuyou nodded, and Xiao Zhi also knew that the young master invited by his own girl was here, so he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, then secretly glanced at King Wuyou, with a smile on his face.
King Wuyou went out and saw a carriage in front of the door, so he smiled and asked: "Miss Xiaozhi, is this your family's carriage?" Xiaozhi smiled and said: "Sir, it is exactly the same.
The girl said that the young master has a few friends here, and if they are traveling together, they can sit over there!"
King Wuyou nodded and said: "My friends are not going, I will just get in the car!"
After saying that, he stepped on the step stool and got into the car. The coachman quickly jumped out of the curtain, and King Wuyou got into the car. Lu Zheng flew on the horse and followed beside him. Xiao Zhi also got into the car and sat on the side of the shaft.
When the coachman saw that everyone was gathered, he took Xiao Zhi's signal and drove the carriage forward.
Since King Chen's death, Luocheng Fengyue's business has been suspended for a month, and it has just opened recently. Officials in the city did not dare to openly come to have fun because of the national mourning, so the business was much deserted. The carriage stopped in front of the Fengyue Tower, and there was no one there.
King You got out of the car and took a look. There were almost no carriages, horses or sedans in front of the door.
When they arrived at Fengyue Tower, the old bustard naturally recognized King Wuyou. He called Mr. Qi repeatedly, and then ordered him to be led to the back. King Wuyou only nodded and followed him to the backyard. Turning around the garden, there
I saw Miss Xinyi standing upstairs at the back, holding on to the railing and looking up. When I saw King Wushu coming, I smiled and waved.
When King Wuyou went upstairs, Xinyi followed him into the room. Then a maid brought tea sets to him. Xinyi invited King Wuyou to sit down, then he gently lifted the catkin and made a tea ceremony for King Wuyou. Look.
Watching Xinyi's skillful tea ceremony, King Wuyou was stunned for a moment. Xinyi brought the poured tea to King Wuyou, only to realize that King Wuyou was looking at her infatuatedly, and his face turned red without realizing it.
He chuckled and said, "Mr. Qi, why don't you see Mr. Xue coming with you?"
When King Wuyou heard Xinyi asked, he came back to his senses and said: "Oh, I made the girl laugh. Seeing the girl's tea art, it reminded me of Ying'er, and I lost my mind for a moment. Ying'er had some trivial matters at home, but this time it was...
Didn't come with me."
After hearing this, Xinyi's face showed some sadness, but a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. Xinyi nodded lightly and raised her hand to signal King Wuyou to use the tea. King Wuyou gently lifted the scent cup and placed it in front of him
He sniffed it, nodded and said: "Good tea, refreshing and elegant fragrance!" Then he put down the scent cup, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "This tea should be our northern green tea, it has a refreshing fragrance and a soft taste.
"
Xinyi nodded and said to King Wuyou: "Master Qi really tasted it. This is the green tea from the East China Sea in Qidi. It is collected from Mount Laoshan. This water is also the spring water from the Black Dragon Pool at the foot of Mount Laoshan. My friend happened to come from
Come here together, I asked him to bring it!"
King Wuyou asked casually: "Does Miss Xinyi actually like our Qidi's green tea?"
When Xinyi was asked, she actually lowered her head and said softly: "I also went to Qi State recently. I thought the tea was elegant and I liked it. I guess Ying'er also likes this tea. Her tea ceremony is also very good. I want to come here.
I often make tea for Mr. Qi!"
King Wuyou was holding the tea cup, looking at the light green tea in the cup, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Yes, Ying'er will make tea for me in her free time, but we drink tea together on the floor.
It's not as complicated as this. Ying'er also likes this tea ceremony, so she specially invited it to be learned by the Humane Society."
Xinyi raised her eyes to look at King Wuyou and asked slowly: "Does Mr. Qi like this tea ceremony or the people who make tea?"
King Wuyou was stunned for a moment when he was asked, then he laughed randomly and said: "Miss Xinyi asked a good question, people always say that people love the house as much as the bird. I should like this tea art because of people who like making tea!"
Xinyi also smiled and asked softly: "Does Mr. Qi like my tea art?"
King Wuyou looked at Xinyi's smiling face and was stunned for a moment. As soon as their eyes met, King Wuyou chuckled and said, "Miss Xinyi is joking. My tea skills are exquisite. It's really great for a girl to hold the cup."
It’s a pleasure.”
At this point, King Wuyou changed the subject and asked: "Miss Xinyi invited me here, isn't it just for tea?"
Xinyi nodded, raised her plain wrist, and poured tea for King Wuyou, and then looked at King Wuyou and said: "Young Master Qi, I just heard that the Young Master came to Luo City, and I thought that the Young Master would come to Luo City.
I also have my own preferences, I just want to tell the young master that if the young master needs anything Xinyi, just ask, Xinyi will do his best to help!"
