"If you really want to go to Jiangnan, you must make preparations early." Han Anbo said.

Li Qingxian nodded and said, "Brother Han, please pay more attention to the art business. The art business is more important than you think."

"These days, I have found that the art industry is indeed different. Those storytellers and singers, it seems useless to say it once, but it is very useful to say it over and over again." Han Anbo said seriously.

Li Qingxian nodded and said: "Before I leave, I will give you another sum of money, enough to last you three to five years. When we go to Jiangnan, we can still communicate. If there is an emergency, please contact my messenger plate."

Li Qingxian said, handing out a piece of wood, a mana thorn.

"Okay!" Han Anbo took it.

Li Qingxian said: "In a few days, I will make a substitute wooden boy for you, as well as some spiritual talismans."

Zheng Gaojue couldn't help but said: "Li Ke, you are going to Jiangnan, not to the underworld, how can you end up separated by life and death?"

Li Qingxian laughed dumbly and said, "Maybe he doesn't want to leave Shendu. After all, he has lived here for many years."

"Going to Jiangnan is such a good thing, why don't you want to give it up? If you go tomorrow, I can finish it today." Yu Ping's mind was filled with Jiangnan delicacies.

Li Qingxian said: "Let's go have a bowl of mutton soup tomorrow morning. The four of us haven't had it together yet."

"Mutton soup?" Yu Ping's eyes widened.

"Lao Zhang's mutton soup is the best." Li Qingxian smiled.

Han Anbo looked at Li Qingxian and smiled slightly.

Yu Ping curled his lips and muttered in a low voice: "It's the same old thing again."

Zheng Gaojue nodded and said, "My father said that Lao Zhang's haggis soup is the best."

Early the next morning, four people dressed up and went to Zhang Ji Yangtang on Xile Street.

"Master Li, you are here, please sit down." Lao Zhang came over to greet him again.

Li Qingxian said: "Four bowls of mutton soup, four chopped white buns, and four salted duck eggs."

"okay."

Zheng Gaojue said hurriedly: "Li Ke, my father said that the white buns should be broken by hand."

Li Qingxian smiled and said: "Okay, then three are chopped and one is whole. Yu Ping, go pick four salted duck eggs, they will be oily."

"Let's see!" Yu Ping agreed in a strange tone, carefully choosing salted duck eggs.

After finishing the mutton soup, the four of them ate some scattered coke rings, sugar cakes, etc., chatted with their stomachs full, and slowly returned to Jiajiu Fang.

Entering the courtyard, a night guard wearing a tenth-grade official uniform stood at the door.

Zhong Baishan, a captain of the Jiazhe Division, was transferred from the Military and Horse Division.

When Zhong Baishan saw Li Qingxian coming, his face turned red and he cupped his hands and said, "I have met Mr. Li, Zhong Baishan."

"If you have anything to do, come in and talk." Li Qingxian and the other four entered the room, followed by Zhong Baishan.

The four of them sat down. Zhong Baishan stood by the door, coughed slightly and said, "I wonder if you remember my nephew, your classmate, Lou Yushan, who drank at Zuixiangju Restaurant a while ago?"

"You are a family?" Li Qingxian suddenly remembered that Lou Yushan's family members were officials in the Ministry of Industry, and Zhong Baishan also said that his brother-in-law was from the Ministry of Industry.

Zhong Baishan breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "My sister married my brother-in-law."

Everyone laughed.

"Lou Yushan is my classmate." Li Qingxian remembered that Du Qizhen had invited him to a dinner before, which was probably related to Lou Yushan.

"Ahem, my nephew said that I haven't seen your old classmates in college for many years. Everyone wants to get together. I'm going to find a time. I just want to ask you when you are free. You can also tell me the location. I will pay for all the expenses. The nephew will bear it.”

"This matter... As you know, Ye Wei has been having a lot of trouble with the Ministry of Justice recently, and I even postponed Mr. He's dinner. How about this, wait, I will give you an answer before and after the Qingyun test."

Zhong Baishan whispered: "What Xiaoshan means is that before the big gathering, some of you familiar classmates will have a small gathering first. We didn't have much fun last time."

Li Qingxian smiled slightly, and it seemed that this was Zhong Baishan's real intention, and said: "Then I will see if I have time. If I have time, we will have a meal together. If we don't have time, we will have a big party together."

Zhong Baishan said hurriedly: "I will convey it to my nephew right now."

Li Qingxian added: "You can go to Zhangji Mutton Soup in the future, but you can only order mutton soup, not mutton soup."

Zhong Baishan blushed and said, "I understand, I will take my leave."

After Zhong Baishan left, the four of them discussed how Li Qingxian would prepare.

In order to leave Beijing, Li Qingxian made a special trip back home, met with his aunt and uncle, and stated the interests.

The two elders have always been reasonable and said that they have no other relatives except Li Qingxian in Shendu anyway, and they will be the same in Shendu when they go to Jiangnan, which makes Li Qingxian feel at ease.

The Ministry of Punishment stopped, and Li Qingxian became free again and began to prepare for leaving Beijing. At the same time, he continued to arrange for Han Anbo to pay for his life.

The head of the house, He Lei, came to invite him every now and then to host a banquet to express his gratitude for the rescue. After much talk and hard work, the two of them didn't look up or down, and Li Qingxian couldn't refuse, so he agreed.

He Lei chose a good day. After leaving the office in the evening, the group changed into casual clothes, took the carriage prepared by He Lei in advance, and arrived at Zuixiang Residence by the Grand Canal. They chose the Mingxuan Room from last time.

There is a mahogany round table and sandalwood seats in the room, and the river is flowing outside.

Just like last time, He Lei pushed Li Qingxian to the main seat and sat on Li Qingxian's left hand.

This time, in addition to the four members of Li Qingxian's Jiajiu Fang and He Lei, there were also the house supervisor Jun Jingguan and two of He Lei's cronies.

As soon as he sat down, He Lei said: "Qingxian, we are all our own people. I chose Zuixiangju, so don't pick on me. We are just low-class people after all. Zuixiangju is already the best place, places like Huahai Tower, downstairs It’s okay to have a glass of wine. It’s not appropriate for us to go to the private room above.”

Li Qingxian nodded and smiled: "The private rooms in those places need to be booked at least one month in advance. They are not of high quality, so we have to wait in line."

He Lei raised his glass, glanced at everyone, and said, "No further nonsense, this is my first drink. Thank you for your life-saving grace. Don't move, I'll do it!"

He Lei drank it all in one gulp, turned the mouth of the cup outward, put it down, and filled it up.

Li Qingxian said: "Since we are one of our own, we can eat and drink as we please, so there is no need to toast."

"Okay, you make the decision! However, you can't stop me. I'm so happy today. I'll toast to myself for this second cup." He Lei said, and drank another cup, with the mouth of the cup turned outwards as before.

Li Qingxian smiled and said: "Old He, I know you have a good drinking capacity, so you don't need to be so drunk."

He Lei shook his head and said: "Let me be wild today, and I'll be fine if I take a nap tomorrow." After saying that, he filled himself up again and drank a third cup.

Everyone looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.

He Lei filled himself up again. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not upset, I'm feeling emotional. I've never been to the Sky Prison before, so it doesn't matter. I've been there for a few days this time, and I'm really scared. "

"Torture?" Li Qingxian asked with a frown.

He Lei waved his hand and said: "That's not enough, after all, the skin of the seventh grade is still there. But what I saw and heard in the prison made me scared. This is why I want to thank you again and again."

Jing Guan nodded and said: "Our Night Guard's prison is still a reasonable place, but the Tianlao is really unreasonable."
