Unspeakable hatred of rich men

Seeing Zuo Yanting lying on the bed without much energy, Long Xi took out a book from the drawer and handed it to the other party, and said softly: "Let's read the book for a while, didn't you just say you wanted to read Mr. Xishan's poetry collection? It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s worth a fortune.”

Zuo Yanting hesitated for a moment, then took the book.If he could get this book of poems written by the former Mr. Xishan in normal times, he would probably scream with excitement.But now, there is no wave in my heart.He knew that Long Xi was really kind to him, but after last night, he could no longer and dare not treat him as his friend.

Turning to the first page silently, I saw an exquisite bookmark in the front of the volume, a picture of a dragon-shaped tree trunk with a goose parked on it, and a line of small words on it: I only wish to depend on each other for the rest of my life, and never give up.

There is some warmth in the eyes, Zuo Yanting knows that this is Long Xi expressing his love to him in his own way.It's just... Does he really love himself?If you really love yourself, why did you use such unbearable means to treat yourself last night.If the previous compulsive behaviors were just for the sake of uncontrollable love, so I still regarded him as a friend from time to time, then the experience last night had completely driven his heart into hell.

Someone yelled outside, and Long Xi got up and left.Zuo Yanting looked up at the tall and straight figure, couldn't help but sighed, and muttered to himself: "Why do you need to use these methods to please me? Even if that one is raped by you, she still can't help but look at you Your friend Zuo Yanting was killed by you as early as last night. From then on, the person beside you is nothing more than a shell, Long Xi, this is the result you want, right?"

After only flipping through two pages of the collection of poems, I felt uninteresting.Zuo Yanting put the collection of poems on the table, and lay back under the quilt.At this time, he has no interest in Jiangnan, which he has been fascinated for a long time, and he doesn't want to go ashore to see it.After lying down for a while, he felt dizzy. He heard that Long Xi seemed to be back, and smelled the fragrance in his nose, but he was too lazy to open his eyes and fell asleep after a while.

When I woke up again, I didn't know when it was.He moved to the bed and opened the gauze curtain. Because of the heat in summer, the window was already open.If you look around, you can see thousands of miles of blue waves, and the level is like a mirror.Then look up at the sky.It is a piece of blue, without even a cloud, only the sun is shining hot, and the sun hurts people's eyes.

Zuo Yanting knew that it was probably after noon.After moving my body a few times, I didn't feel as sore as when I woke up in the morning, but I still haven't recovered.He only felt thirsty, but he didn't want to call anyone, so he struggled to get out of bed and poured a glass of water to drink.

Sitting on the chair and taking a few breaths, the planning, escaping, rushing, and last night's torture for more than ten days in a row almost exhausted all his physical strength.He rested on the chair before standing up.He wanted to go back to bed and lie down again, but when he turned around, he saw a large bowl of soybean milk, a few fried dough sticks and a few fried cakes on the bedside table.

Zuo Yanting likes fried dough sticks and sweet pancakes the most. Every morning, he eats these at the breakfast stall outside Shuxiangzhai, and then drinks a large bowl of sweet soy milk before opening Shuxiangzhai.

Long Xi naturally knew his habit.Zuo Yanting looked at those things, and only then did he know the source of the fragrance in his nose when he was drowsy.

Slowly moving over, those fried dough sticks, pancakes, and soy milk had already cooled completely, so he watched silently for a while.He continued to lie down on the bed with a blank face, and sneered in his heart: What is this?Slap a date for a date?Long Xi, you really regard me as your sex slave and pet.

"Why haven't you woken up yet? If you sleep like this, you won't be afraid of something wrong with your sleep."

Long Xi's voice came from outside, Zuo Yanting quickly closed his eyes, the last thing he wanted to see was this person.I didn't know how to talk to him when I saw it.It's better to pretend to sleep, so that you don't see it, and you don't feel restless.

"I don't think you have had a good night's sleep in the past ten days, so you only slept so much today. My lord, let him sleep for a while, it's not like this every day, let him have a good rest."

It was Jinniang's voice, gently persuading her.

Long Xi had no choice but to come forward and cover Zuo Yanting with a thin gauze quilt, and sighed: "These fried dough sticks and soy milk are cold, and there is no way to eat them. You can take them out and throw them away. I'll eat them for lunch." No need, the sun makes people feel tired, I will also lie down with Yanting for a while."

After speaking, he lay down beside Zuo Yanting.Jinniang had no choice but to take everything out.Here Zuo Yanting was bored, but still had to pretend to be asleep, closed his eyes for a while, and actually fell into a drowsy sleep.

Perhaps it was because Long Xi was sleeping beside him which made him uneasy.This time when I fall asleep, I always have dreams, many weird dreams, both sweet dreams and nightmares.So I didn't sleep well at all.

He ran with all his might, as if someone was chasing him from behind.It was so easy to hear that there was no sound behind him, but he had already run to the cliff.Zuo Yanting looked around in panic, but found that there was no other way but behind him. He was forced to jump off the cliff, but he saw a huge dragon's head protruding from the cliff. One eye was as big as a lantern, exuding a fierce light, staring at him viciously.

"Ah..." Zuo Yanting yelled loudly, fell down, and a voice like a ghost laughing suddenly sounded behind him, and gradually approached.Just when he had nowhere to go and a desperate thought arose in his heart, a gentle voice called out to his ears: "Yanting, Yanting, wake up..."

Finally opened his eyes.Zuo Yanting sat up and immediately fell into a warm embrace. He heard Long Xi's smiling voice: "What's the matter? Did you have a nightmare? Look, the clothes are a little soaked. I just let them burn Hot water, you wash yourself first, and then we should have dinner."

"It's a dream, but it turned out to be a nightmare." Zuo Yanting stretched out his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat off his head, relaxed his mind, and was about to fall down on the bed again.But he was grabbed by Long Xi, who laughed and said, "Don't sleep any more. If you sleep any more, I'm afraid you will turn into a monster with a long nose, big ears, and a thin tail behind you."

"You are the pig." He just woke up and his nerves were not ready enough. Hearing Long Xi's teasing, Zuo Yanting subconsciously refuted back. When he realized what he said, he only regretted it. Green, wishing to bite off the tongue that caused trouble.

"Okay, okay, I'm a pig, a big wild boar, isn't it okay?" But hearing Long Xi coaxing himself with a smiling voice, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

what's so funny?Zuo Yanting glanced at the other party, stood up with a snort, ignored Long Xi, walked behind the screen, took off his underwear, and soaked in the hot water bucket.

Although the body has been scrubbed before, it is still comfortable to soak in hot water.Zuo Yanting was a little reluctant to come out, but Long Xi couldn't help urging him again and again, finally he had no choice but to climb out.There was already a set of neatly folded snow-white coats beside the screen. He knew that it was secretly sent in by Long Xi, so he couldn't help but glance behind the screen and hesitated before changing it on.

When I went out, I saw no one.Zuo Yanting was wondering, when he saw Long Xi running in excitedly like a child, he couldn't help but take his hand and walked out, and said with a smile: "Hurry up, let me show you a wonderful scene."

Zuo Yanting struggled twice, but he didn't get away, so he let him go.When the two came to the deck, they saw many maids, servants, servants and guards gathered here. Seeing them coming, they all gave way to one another.In an instant, the scenery in front of him almost made Zuo Yanting suspect that he was in the palace of Jiutian.

On the endless river surface, some river lanterns floated from nowhere, colorful and shining, scattered everywhere, just like the Milky Way in the sky falling into the world, it is really indescribably beautiful.

"It's so strange, it's not the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, how could someone set off river lanterns?" Long Xi said to himself, and then smiled at Zuo Yanting like a child's prank: "Let's pick up two, Let's see what wishes these people have made, shall we?"

Although Zuo Yanting told himself in his heart that he would live like a walking corpse in front of Long Xi, but when he encountered such a strange thing, or was fascinated by this magnificent spectacle, he actually threw away all his thoughts up.It's just that he doesn't want to give the other party a good face, but he is really curious about where these river lights come from?What is the wish to write.

It's just that although there are tens of thousands of river lanterns, the colorful light that embellishes the vast river surface is dazzling.But in fact it is not dense, there is only one at a long distance, and there is no one beside their boat because of the waves caused by the boat moving forward.

Just as he was wondering what method Long Xi would use to get those river lanterns, he felt a figure flash in front of him, and when he looked back, Long Xi was no longer beside him.

"Ah..." Zuo Yanting couldn't help crying out.But Jinniang laughed and said: "Young master, don't worry, the prince knows it well, this little thing can't trouble him."

Zuo Yanting blushed slightly, snorted and said, "I have nothing to worry about." But his eyes were fixed on the figure that flew out.

Borrowing the clear light of the lanterns on the boat, I saw Long Xi gliding in front of a river lantern like a dexterous swallow.He stretched out a hand to pick up the river lantern, then turned over in the air, tapped his toes lightly on the water surface, and his body floated lightly again.Like a kite, it slid to another river lantern. After picking up the river lantern, it touched the river surface with both feet, and flew back into the dragon boat.

"My lord is very skilled..."

"My lord is so handsome..."

There was a burst of warm cheers from the guards.Zuo Yanting finally put his heart into his stomach, and muttered to himself with his mouth curled up: "Hmph, isn't it just that you know how to do some kung fu? What are you showing off?"

A soft murmur did not escape Long Xi's ears.He looked up at Zuo Yanting in shock, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zuo Yanting turned his head away, secretly resenting himself for not being up to date, why did he forget that that bastard is a martial arts practitioner, and he usually watches all directions and listens to all directions.

"Huh?" Just about to step back to the cabin and continue to implement the desperate plan.Hearing Long Xi's questioning question, when he looked back, he saw his brows tightly knit together.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and turned back.Generally speaking, things like river lanterns are for expressing wishes, so it is impossible to get Long Xi's expression. Could it be... there is something hidden in it?

"What's the matter, my lord?" Jin Niang also leaned forward, and saw Long Xi put the first disassembled river lantern into her hand, and then turned on the second river lantern. This time, his brows were furrowed. tighter.

"Mo Li, go and get some more river lanterns." Long Xi raised his finger and pointed to a guard, so the man agreed, flew out of the boat, and went to the river to catch a few more river lanterns.

No matter how heartbroken Zuo Yanting was, he couldn't help being curious at this moment.Long Xi also understood his temperament, and handed him the second river lantern that was disassembled.On the outside of the lamp body wrapped in oil paper, there are eight small gray and red characters: "The sky has no eyes, so where is justice?"

"This is... this is..." Zuo Yanting felt his eyelids twitch, and then he heard Long Xi say in a deep voice, "This is a word written in blood. Because some water got in and got wet, the color faded a lot .”

Then he handed the first river lantern to Zuo Yanting: "Look, this one is probably wrapped in oiled paper, and the blood color inside is much thicker."

"Huh? The font is different." Zuo Yanting also frowned: "What's going on here?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the guard who was sent to fish for the river lanterns had returned, holding six or seven river lanterns in his hands.Long Xi and Zuo Yanting Jinniang worked together, and took apart all the river lanterns in a blink of an eye, and saw that there were blood characters written in different fonts inside, and the contents were all those eight characters. Written by illiterate people.

Zuo Yanting raised his head, unable to hide the shock in his eyes.After a while, Long Xi said in a deep voice: "It seems that there is a great grievance here. There are so many river lanterns, each with a different font. It is definitely not something that one person or a few people can make."

Jinniang hesitated and said: "Is the lord going to take care of this matter? It's just... there are only these eight words, which are obviously written by everyone in anger, without even a reason or specific matters. It can be seen... this matter has probably been dusted It's settled. That's why all the people unite to set off the river lanterns to pay homage to them. The person who can accomplish this is probably not someone who is easy to get along with. The prince only has these guards in his hands, and there is no army..."

She didn't continue, but Zuo Yanting already understood that she was afraid that her prince would be hurt.Thinking about it, this is indeed the truth, Long Xi is the son of a pilgrim, a prince.

But... when he thought of the great grievances behind these river lanterns, he felt very indignant.He clearly hated Long Xi, a creature inferior to a beast, but still hoped that he would come out ahead and return justice to the people in this area.

Long Xi frowned and thought for a while.Then he raised his head and said to Jin Niang: "It's okay, I have the secret decree from the emperor in my hand, I can act cheaply at any time, and the local officials must fully cooperate. This was originally for the convenience of buying birthday gifts, but I didn't expect it to be used in advance today. "

"My lord..." Jinniang wanted to persuade her again, but Long Xi waved her hand and said, "The people are more important than the ruler. As a prince, I cannot ignore this serious grievance. Jinniang, you and the fleet first Go to the south of the Yangtze River and carefully purchase the items on the list. You have also handled many important things in my house. This will definitely be done well. Yanting and I disembarked from the front and went ashore to search secretly. You will arrange for us Good clothes are worth two taels of silver."

"You...don't you need to bring a few guards?" Zuo Yanting hesitated again and again, but finally asked.

"No, it's more conspicuous if you bring a lot of people. Those guards are mostly outsiders. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that there are so many masters in this place overnight. How can anyone not be on guard?" Long Xi took Zuo Yan Ting returned to the study in a hurry and began to write a letter to Jinniang. With this letter, she would be able to buy birthday gifts for herself.

"Don't you also know kung fu? Could it be that people with discerning eyes can't see you?" Zuo Yanting also saw in those novels that people who practiced kung fu from outsiders had their temples protruding outward.Those who practice internal martial arts have sunken temples.It's just that he stared at Long Xi for a long time, but he didn't see whether the other's temple was concave or convex?

After Long Xi finished writing the letter, he raised his head and saw his puzzled eyes, and understood what he was thinking, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Fool, I have practiced kung fu with famous masters since I was a child, and with the help of some rare elixir, now I have already reached the point where Shenhua is introverted, and outsiders can't see the depth of my martial arts at all."

"That means you are very good at martial arts?" Zuo Yanting curled his lips: "You are a prince, do you need to study so hard? Could it be that martial arts are commonplace? Those guards dare not say it directly, so they tell you it is What kind of Shenhua is introverted?"

Long Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and flicked Zuo Yanting's forehead: "Why don't you trust me so much? As for studying hard, of course I have to study hard, don't Yanting know? Princes are the easiest to die people, sometimes they die for no reason, and there is not even a scum left.”

Zuo Yanting's heart trembled, and he looked at Long Xi in disbelief.There was a hint of shock and sympathy in his eyes.When he thought of the more than a dozen princes in the current sage, and when he thought about the court strife in the past, he felt shuddering. He couldn't imagine that Long Xi, who was usually domineering like a devil, had to practice hard since childhood in order to save his life.

"Okay, don't be like this. The relationship between my brothers and I is very good. Although our mothers are pregnant with each other and have a lot of fun in the harem, but fortunately we all grew up in front of the father and the queen mother." Yes, not to mention that the seat of the prince has been settled long ago. The wisdom and character of the prince's elder brother has always been the best among us, so everyone has no intention to fight for power and profit. Those martial arts and so on when they were young are considered useless."

Long Xi said with a smile, but saw Zuo Yanting frowned and said: "What is this? What is white practice? No matter what, there is always a skill to defend yourself." After speaking, he was surprised that he had returned to the past The way she got along with Long Xi, she almost gritted her teeth with hatred.Angrily turned around and was about to leave.

One hand was suddenly grabbed by Long Xi, and he forced him to turn around.When I came into contact with those eyes that were always as deep as the sea, I heard him say: "Yanting, are you...would you like to go with me...with me? If not, you can go down to the south of the Yangtze River with Jinniang first. This is the most beautiful season in the south of the Yangtze River, without me by your side, it will be very pleasant for you to enjoy the scenery.”

Are you comfortable?Maybe.The place that I have longed for for many years.Remnant snow on the broken bridge, the moon reflected in the three pools, the evening light on the Leifeng Peak... most importantly, without this bastard who was by his side every step of the way, then... what a wonderful journey it would be.

"I'll go ashore with you." But he said this sentence without hesitation.How good is it?Compared with the great grievance in front of me, those are just romances.He would rather choose to be by Long Xi's side to repay justice in the world with him than to enjoy a comfortable and beautiful trip alone.

Weakly shook his head.I still hate the person in front of me in my heart, but...but seeing him choose to abandon the boat and go ashore to investigate the grievances without hesitation, for some reason, there is a surge of admiration and relief in my heart, he...he even proud of it.This kind of him really made him despise him, but there was nothing he could do.

"Okay, let's go together, as long as Yanting is with me, even if the emperor is the backstage, I dare to break the day." Long Xi hugged Zuo Yanting, his heart was full of emotion and infinite love: This is the lover he chose, a lover who is most worthy of his pride and love.

"Yanting, don't worry, I will protect you. Even if I bleed dry on my body, I will not let others touch a single hair of your hair." In Zuo Yanting's ear, she murmured love words like an oath.Long Xi then took Zuo Yanting's hand, strode out of the study room, handed the letter and the jade pendant with dragon pattern as a keepsake, and the official document from the Ministry of Rites to Jinniang, and told her and the guards a few words.That's why people called the boatman.

The boatman heard that the prince was going to abandon the boat and go ashore, so he calculated the itinerary, nodded and smiled and said, "That's right, the wharf of Ganzhou is about ten miles away, so you should dock there."

Long Xi nodded, and then said to the guards: "Tightly monitor the people on board, if you find any abnormalities or messengers, immediately put them in custody. You keep that basket of carrier pigeons Jin Niang yourself, and make sure to block the news that I am on the way ashore. If someone asks about it after going down to the south of the Yangtze River, you can say that I went ashore shortly after boarding the boat with my lover, and traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, so it would be a few days later.”

"Yes, my lord, please don't worry, this maid will do everything I can to make sure my lord doesn't have any worries." Jin Niang made a blessing.Long Xi said hello, and brought Zuo Yanting to the bow deck.

After a while, the boat came to a pier. Because it was night, many fishing boats were moored at the pier, and a few lights were dotted around, adding to the traveler's worries.

What Long Xi was on was a dragon boat, it was huge and there were many boats, if it was moored on the pier, it would definitely alarm others.So Long Xi just checked the distance with his eyes, and then said to the boatman, "Just stop here. After we land, you still continue to go south. Go to the next pier and dock."

The boatman agreed.So Long Xi carried the bundle that Jinniang had wrapped on his back, then hugged Zuo Yanting by the waist, and before he let out a cry of surprise, he brushed his fingers over his lips, and said with a light smile, "Baby, don't make a sound." , it would be bad if people found out.”

Zuo Yanting gave him a blank look, but he cooperated and stopped struggling and protesting, and only told himself that everything was for the sake of the overall situation.

"I carried you from here to the shore, you wouldn't scream out in fright, would you?" But Long Xi added with a smile.

"Whoever calls who is the grandson." Zuo Yanting was so excited by him that his blood surged up, thinking that you underestimated people too much, and after he finished speaking, he still felt puzzled, and finally added a sentence coolly: "It's just a certain Personally, take it easy, don’t fall into the river halfway through the flight, it doesn’t matter if I drown, it would be a pity to lose a lifetime of honor.”

The guards next to him couldn't help but chuckled, and then quickly covered their mouths.Long Xi looked at Zuo Yanting dumbfounded: "Yanting, you just hope that I will fall into the river, right? Even if it makes you wet, you still hope that I will throw you away once, right? But...hehe, You are doomed to fail. Silence, we will go ashore."

As Long Xi's voice fell, he hugged Zuo Yanting and flew up like a roc. At this time, the night was dense, because the canal was spacious, the water was deep, and there were no dangers such as hidden reefs. When they rushed to the south of the Yangtze River, their boats had to sail at midnight every night before they hit the shore and broke down.

Although it was still early, but the journey was exhausting, and those on the fishing boats parked on the shore all fell asleep.So Long Xi and Zuo Yanting passed by those boats without anyone noticing.

Standing still on the bank, Zuo Yanting looked around and murmured: "There is no one home, how can I find those people who put the river lanterns? At that time, I was just filled with righteous indignation. Now that I think about it, this Things are not easy.”

Long Xi smiled and said, "Nothing is difficult in the world if you put your heart into it. I've done the math, and most of those river lanterns have not sunk into the water, which means that the place where the river lanterns were placed is not far from where we found the river lanterns. Afterwards, we traveled another ten miles by water. So if we walked back along this canal for more than ten miles, there must be clues of river lanterns.”

"Well, it seems that this is the only way to do it. But what about now? Let's go back now?" Zuo Yanting looked at the fishing boats moored and wondered whether he should go there first to find out the news.

Long Xi saw what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "No need. Let's go back. This canal is very bustling, and there must be many people on both sides of the canal. If you are tired from walking, you can find a fisherman's family to stay overnight. It’s just a matter of asking around, it’s better to have news, if there is no news, it’s not too late to visit slowly tomorrow.”

Zuo Yanting agreed.Then he glanced at Long Xi with some surprise, and said to himself, don't look at this bastard who has been pampered since he was a child, and he is quite reassuring at critical moments.That's right, I shouldn't underestimate him just because he is a prince. If he is incapable, how could the emperor entrust him with such an important matter as purchasing the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday gift? Not a dragon and a phoenix among men.

"What are you thinking?"

Just as he was engrossed in his thoughts, he was unexpectedly interrupted by Long Xi's laughter. Turning to look, he saw the other party smiling contentedly, and said leisurely: "Yanting, I'm really happy. I originally thought that the two of us I will never get along like this again. So although I am also worried and angry about the river lantern, I am really grateful for it. If this incident did not happen, maybe you would never forgive me for the rest of your life. "

"Who told you that I forgive you now?" Zuo Yanting snorted and turned his head away: "Don't be too sentimental, I just because this matter is very important and I have to investigate with you, so I have to Just talk."

"Yes, that's what I mean. If it wasn't for this incident, you might not have said a word to me in bed for ten days and a half months. But it's different now. Hehe..."

Long Xi suddenly let out a sinister smile of unknown meaning, approached Zuo Yanting, and whispered: "I won't be so sentimental as to think that you will have a good time with me from now on."

Zuo Yanting hated him so much that his teeth itch. He wished he could kick that bastard Long Xi into the canal.But then his hand was held by the other party, and he said softly: "Okay, don't worry, the ground by the river is a little slippery, I will hold you, be careful not to fall."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Yanting really staggered and nearly fell down.Fortunately, Long Xi supported him.Zuo Yanting's face was a little hot, it's too embarrassing for the secret channel, and it's embarrassing in front of this guy, this... this really pissed me off.

As soon as I thought of this, Long Xi also staggered, and then laughed and said: "Look, I was only focused on talking about you, but now I almost stumbled and slapped myself. Fortunately, I pulled you Where are your hands?"

The shame and anger in Zuo Yanting's stomach disappeared in an instant. He looked up at Long Xi in a daze, but saw that he was turning his head to check the surrounding situation. The dragon and the tiger walk steadily, how could they slip.He knew in his heart that Long Xi deliberately pretended to slip to avoid embarrassing himself.At this time, a crack was quietly cracked in the ice that had been formed in my heart before.

But he didn't realize it, but when he felt a little moved, he hated to think of the cruel "punishment" that he was lying in Long Xi's arms just last night. Hard again.

I hurried all the way, and after walking for more than three miles, I came across an inn. There was a white lantern in front of the door, and the wine cover was shaking slightly in the night wind. "Four characters.

"Let's go in and rest for the night. If we don't let us, we really have to spend the night at Yu's house." After finishing speaking, Long Xi took Zuo Yanting's hand and came to the inn door, raised his hand and knocked on the door a few times.

"You don't need to worry about me, hmph, I'm not as delicate as you think, and this road is nothing. When I went to Baiyun Temple, I didn't have to catch my breath when I went up and down the mountain."

Zuo Yanting knew that Long Xi was thinking of himself, but the grievance was greater than the sky. Although he felt tired, if he could rush over earlier, it would be better to arrive earlier, maybe he could save a person.

"Oh, so Yanting is so powerful? I actually underestimated you." Long Xi looked at his lover with a half-smile, took out a handkerchief from his hand, and lovingly wiped the sweat off his forehead, smiling again He said, "What's the matter with your blushing face?"

"You...you still have the face to say, who caused me to be so tired?" Zuo Yanting raised his brows and thought to himself that this beast is really shameless, if it wasn't for being tormented so badly by him last night, Do I feel that my legs and feet are weak after walking such a few steps?

Long Xi's smile froze, and then he laughed again: "Okay, okay, is it my fault? But you have to think about who broke his promise first." He didn't want Zuo Yanting to recall last night Yes, so he changed the subject and said: "Really, why hasn't the store come out yet, are they all asleep?"

As soon as the voice fell, the door opened with a "squeak".A waiter in common clothes yawned and held a candle, muttering, "Guest officer, what time is it? We only entered the store at this time, so where are there any vacancies?"

"Stop cheating people, this is not a tourist attraction, and there are no gatherings happening, so there will be no vacant rooms? It's nothing more than you being lazy and slick, believe it or not, I will call your shopkeeper, and see what he has to say when the time comes ?”

While talking, Long Xi threw a small silver ingot of five taels into the little second hand.Immediately the waiter woke up, nodded and bowed his head and said, "Yes, yes, I don't know Taishan, I just want to be lazy, guest officer, please don't tell us the shopkeeper. It just so happens that there is another room in Tianzihao. The little one will lead the guest officer over."

Although it is just a small inn, the room is really tidy and clean.Especially the big carved bed against the wall in the room, and the light green curtain made of high-quality cotton yarn.Long Xi only took one look, then smiled and said: "Your boss is a shrewd person, he knows how to spend money on this bed and decoration."

Xiaoer smiled and said: "Guest officer, you are really talking, our shopkeeper said that if you want customers to come like a cloud, you must be truly at home, and even make those guests feel that living with us is more comfortable than living at home." There are quite a few inns beside the canal. Hey, only our family has a lot of returning customers. It’s just that the room price is a bit more expensive. Although the younger one just lied, but apart from this Tianzi brand room, there are really no other ones. Empty room."

Long Xi smiled and said: "Okay, you can go out, we are tired all day, and we have to rest, we don't need to fetch hot water." The little girl went out happily when she heard that there was no need for such nagging.

Here, Long Xi unwrapped the bundle, and saw that besides the scattered silver taels and banknotes and clothes, the careful Jinniang also wrapped some snacks and fruit preserves in cloth.He couldn't help laughing and said: "Tonight, I was so focused on looking at the river lantern that I even forgot to eat dinner. Fortunately, I have these things. Come on, Yan Ting and I can use some together, and we can eat better tomorrow."

After what happened last night, Zuo Yanting had no intention of eating.However, being overwhelmed by these things at this time, and walking for two or three miles, I couldn't help but feel hungry, knowing that since I chose to come here with Long Xi to investigate, I couldn't vomit anymore, so I picked up snacks and candied fruit to eat When I got up, under the hunger, my mouth felt sweet and fragrant, even more delicious than those banquets with big fish and meat.

After eating for a while, Long Xi let Zuo Yanting sleep in the bed, while he slept outside.This carved bed is very spacious, not much inferior to the bed in the palace, and the two of them can lie on it very spaciously.
