God level hypnotist
Chapter 28 Eat, Drink and Have Fun
There is nothing else that Xiao Yu entrusted, that is, to ask Meng Heng to pay attention to whether there are any courtiers who behave strangely, have their minds confused or even be haunted by evil spirits. Ordinary people can't see this, and only those who can see through it Only Doctor Meng, who can distinguish the human heart and distinguish demons from demons, can do it.
In this regard, Meng Heng said that due to technological monopoly, he wanted to charge a high price.
The technical operation charges 1000 taels a day, and 3 taels for a month of operation. If the other party pays for three consecutive months, the discount is calculated as 8000 taels.
Lucky numbers.
Of course, if any results are found, an additional commission of 5000 taels will be charged for each one found.
Seeing that the other party agreed so readily, Meng Heng hesitated whether to send his subordinates 001 and 002 to lurk in the courtiers' homes to be babysitters, and then get the commission directly after he catches them all.
But in the end, due to some commercial reputation considerations, this idea was abandoned.
But the young man didn't seem to have the slightest sense of being taken advantage of. He seemed to have been prepared, and ordered Li Qing to directly hand over ten thousand taels of silver bills as a deposit, and then smiled calmly without changing his expression: "Leave the matter to Doctor Meng. Now I don’t have any worries at all.”
Meng Heng took the bank note with no expression on his face, only glanced at it, and put it in a wooden box on a few tables beside him without even covering it, so he gave him a sideways glance, and said coolly: "There is still something to worry about." , Your Excellency is so generous, you are not afraid that I will pretend to agree, turn around and abscond with the money, and go to a remote place to hide your name and go free and easy?"
At the end, he added another sentence, squinted his eyes and smiled deliberately: "After all, this is 10 taels of silver, which is worth dozens of times the cost of food and clothing of ordinary people. If you want to come to any place, you can spend your whole life."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu couldn't help raising his eyebrows and laughing again.
Young people are always like this, they are obviously indifferent, but they always put on an appearance of loving money, but if they really take money, they seem to not care much about the money, and they often put it aside casually, unlike the one who regards money as his life Humans are of two types.
The same is true when dealing with people, neither humble nor overbearing, neither flattered nor surprised, neither likes to listen to compliments, nor will he compliment others, his tone is always half indifferently smiling, half playful and sarcastic, which makes people a little unpredictable.
At this moment, he was acting like a philistine again, but there were bits and pieces of teasing in those smiling eyes, which made people both annoyed and funny.
After Xiao Yu laughed, he couldn't help but be moved by the young man's tone. He coughed twice, pondered for a while pretending to be troubled, and then said with a warm smile: "If that's the case, even if it's the end of the world, the mountains and the seas, Xiao will definitely Follow, we must capture Doctor Meng back."
As he finished speaking, he saw the young man's smile suddenly retracted, and he looked straight at him with a pair of dark and deep eyes, like a deep pool.
Time seemed to stop for a moment, and it was blurred in the youth's dark eyes.
Xiao Yu was a little dazed, and suddenly came to his senses that what he said just now seemed to be inappropriate, his heart pounded wildly for some reason, subconsciously lowered his eyelids to avoid the young man's gaze, and unconsciously raised the teacup just now in his hand , opened his mouth and drank it into his throat, drank half of it, and suddenly realized that it was still the cold tea with a hint of coolness that was half left. He choked into his lungs, and within a few breaths he coughed until his face turned red.
When he was in embarrassment, he could hear the young man laughing again and again, the clear and pleasant voice made people forget the inexplicable embarrassment.
Xiao Yu knew that the other party was laughing at him, but he couldn't get annoyed. Instead, the strange mood just now was melted by the loud laughter.
He couldn't help but also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "Since it is to prevent Doctor Meng from absconding with money, money alone is not enough, and Doctor Meng must be rewarded." Hanging around, he said: "Doctor Meng, would you like to have the face to share dinner with me next time in the Chongguang Pavilion?"

Chongguang Pavilion is a very famous restaurant in the capital city. It is different from the noise and splendor of Yichun Pavilion. Although this place is located in a prosperous place in the capital city, it has its own elegant and quiet style.
Surrounded by emerald bamboos and carved with jade railings, the faint sound of clanging and clear Yue zither can be heard from the pavilion, but it is different from the melodious sound of silk and bamboo in ordinary restaurants.
There is quite a feeling of living in a human environment without the noise of cars and horses.
The dishes here are also unique. The shark's fin bird's nest and sea bass in water shield soup are all used in unusual restaurants, but they are made of famous delicacies from all over the country.
He is also very good at collecting local materials, whether it is the spring flowers and autumn fruits, or the ordinary carnivorous melons and fruits, he can always adapt to the time and material conditions, and he can also be ingenious and turn out patterns, which is really refreshing.
Xiao Yu invited the boy to come to such a place.
The young man seemed to be a frequent visitor here, as soon as he got off the carriage, a waiter ran over with sharp eyes, took the carriage from Li Qing's hands very neatly, and set it in the backyard.
Xiao Yu asked Li Qing to give some broken silver as a reward, but the waiter in the shop just accepted it fearfully and respectfully, without any expression of joy or complacency.
After dismissing the waiter from the shop, Xiao Yu led the young man to the shop with ease, and saw that the inside was really quiet and elegant, and what was even more surprising was that there were very few guests in the lobby, only the two sides and the middle. A luthier sitting in the Goulan while tuning the piano.
Meng Heng couldn't help but glanced at the young man beside him, but he saw that the young man's face was flat and unharmed, as if he had expected this scene long ago.There is also a bit of understanding in my heart, and I calmly go with the youth.
The two went straight to a place on the second floor where a jade screen was half hidden and the railings were slightly covered, and they saw that the scenery inside was unique, a small world, but it was decorated with flowing water and green bamboos, and ink dyed paintings.
Meng Heng flicked his clothes and sat down, glanced at the surrounding scenery for a while, then lightly fell on the young man's face, and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness, who is busy with so many things, has the time to hang around in such a place of smoking and drinking. He is still an expert, and this idler like Meng feels ashamed."
After speaking, the eyebrows were raised lightly, and the meaning of ridicule and ridicule was self-evident.
Xiao Yu was not worried, but just smiled sarcasticly and said, "Doctor Meng thinks highly of me. Although I have the name of a prince, I am no different from a commoner. How can I manage so many things every day? There is nowhere to go. , When there is nothing to do, you can only search for places to enjoy and play in Beijing, and chat to relieve your worries."
Although the young man's tone was light, there was a hint of bitter self-deprecation hidden in the subtleties.
Meng Heng glanced at him sideways, and had some guesses in his heart, so he didn't mention it, he just picked up the teapot beside him, poured himself half a cup of tea, and took a few sips slowly, only feeling the fragrance in his mouth It is overflowing, and it is different from the usual strong tea fragrance, so I can't help sighing: "Good tea."
Only then did Xiao Yu burst into a smile, poured half a cup of tea himself, and said, "Does Doctor Meng know the origin of the word '崇光' in Chongguang Pavilion?"
Meng Heng paused with a smile, frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Meng has never liked the elegant games of literati, please speak directly."
Seeing that the young man seemed impatient, Xiao Yu hurriedly laughed and said, "Actually, it's not very elegant, but it's just taken from Dongpo's phrase 'the east wind curls up to Chongguang', which is a metaphor for the delicate and beautiful color of begonias, and also a little bit of the uniqueness of this place. .”
Halfway through the conversation, he saw the young man looking over with a little interest, and hurriedly continued: "The so-called uniqueness is first of all the tea, not from ordinary tea, but from the spring crabapple petals extracted to make juice. Then it is brewed with the morning dew of lotus root flowers in summer and the nectar of green leaves in autumn, to filter out the strong aroma of the first three times of new tea, so that you can get this light and fresh air, and you will never tire of drinking it."
He said, looking at the laziness and contented expression of the young man who sips the fragrance of tea lightly, he couldn't help but smile again from the bottom of his heart.
"Doctor Meng is still used to drinking?" The young man asked in a low voice.
"Well, the taste is really unique." Meng Heng replied casually, and then sighed slightly: "But I didn't know it was so troublesome."
The young man smiled and said nothing, he just ordered the waiter outside the screen to bring up the most exquisite dishes in the store one by one, and then he and the young man shared the delicacies and chatted about things without being disturbed, which was really enjoyable.
This kind of situation happened frequently in the next few days.
Meng Heng was also happy to see the results, after all, who wouldn't want the leisurely days of eating rice and listening to ditties with his face up.
What's more, although the young man is a little bit literary, but every time he is invited to taste the dishes and the sights he enjoys in the past few days, it is more and more suitable for his taste.
In this regard, he is quite satisfied.
On this day, the two of them spent a whole afternoon in the Chongguang Pavilion listening to music, tasting tea, and eating snacks. They didn't come out of the Chongguang Pavilion until night fell and the stars were twinkling.
Luo Yun was already waiting in the carriage, Meng Heng nodded slightly to the young man to say goodbye, then turned around and was about to board the carriage, but he heard a call from behind.
He lifted the curtain for a moment, turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at the young man.
The young man was slightly taken aback, his eyes were slowly flowing with watery brilliance under the deepening night, and he said with a low smile: "Can Doctor Meng accompany me to ride slowly and walk back slowly?"
Beside the young man were two tall horses standing side by side, being led by Li Qing obediently.
Meng Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, and said bluntly: "I'm not good at riding a horse."
There was no hint of embarrassment in the words, but the usual indifferent tone.
Such an answer surprised the young man, he raised his eyes and saw the young man's expression was serious, he didn't mean to be joking, he felt even more surprised, but when he thought of the young man who was so superior to the world but he couldn't even ride a horse, from the bottom of his heart For some reason, there was a sense of joy.
He couldn't help but raised the corner of his mouth quietly, and said: "Since that's the case, I don't dare to delay Doctor Meng's work." Halfway through speaking, he said to Luo Yun: "It's getting late now, and there are fewer passers-by. You must drive carefully and protect your home. Thorough."
Luo Yun answered "yes" respectfully, but seeing the young man's thin lips curled up slightly, his smile seemed to show disdain, he turned around and was about to get into the carriage, he hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, Doctor Meng."
"What else is there?" The boy lowered the curtains, and a slightly hoarse voice came from inside the carriage.
The young man took a step forward and said: "I think Dr. Meng is quite used to the dishes and snacks in the Chongguang Pavilion. If Xiao is not around someday, Doctor Meng wants to come to the Chongguang Pavilion, and he can come anytime. The shopkeeper Xiaoer I recognize them all, and I will definitely not accept half a cent from Doctor Meng."
After finishing speaking, he still stood beside the carriage, as if he hoped that there would be another half-word spoken from inside, but he only heard a faint low laughter with unknown meaning, and then he followed the carriage and drove away.
In this regard, Meng Heng said that due to technological monopoly, he wanted to charge a high price.
The technical operation charges 1000 taels a day, and 3 taels for a month of operation. If the other party pays for three consecutive months, the discount is calculated as 8000 taels.
