At the right hour of the morning, the rising sun climbed up to the sky, spreading a warm temperature.At that time, there were people coming and going on the street, and the hawkers were scrambling to shout, and it was very lively.A man with his hair tied up in a jade crown, wearing a moon-white Confucian robe, walked slowly with a jade fan in his hand.

Not far away, a peddler selling cotton candy yelled loudly, and the man stopped immediately and looked over.The so-called asking for help is to give gifts well.If you want something from someone, you have to give it to the other person.Although Pei Ziqi didn't like cotton candy at all, it didn't prevent him from buying cotton candy to please Sun Hancheng.

He strode forward and saw another man in front of the stall from a distance.When he approached, the peddler just made a marshmallow, wrapped the warm marshmallow, and handed it to the man.The man took the marshmallow, quickly unfolded the leaves, and rewrapped it carefully.

The peddler smiled and said, "Guest officer, you wrapped it really well. I've been buying this marshmallow for many years, and I don't have your skills. You wrapped it so well, it must be given to a very important person."

The man nodded and said softly: "Give it to my son, he likes to eat this."

The peddler was overjoyed: "Hey, the guest officer looks at you, your son is in his twenties, and he still likes to eat this stuff?"

The man carefully put the marshmallow into his arms, and said with a smile, "I love to eat it. Every time I bring it to him, he eats it clean."

The peddler suddenly realized: "Guest officer, I understand what you said. I'm afraid you don't come home often, but this time you go home, your son loves to eat whatever you bring."

The man smiled: "Don't look at my age. In fact, I also like to eat this stuff. In this respect, he is like me..."

"Isn't this Master Sun? I didn't expect to meet you here." A lazy voice floated over.The man subconsciously froze his smile, and immediately smiled again.It's just a sincere smile, and a hypocritical smile. He turned around and said, "So it's Mr. Pei, who am I? You are so polite. How can I be considered an adult in front of an adult."

Pei Ziqi approached slowly, and said with a smile, "Where is Mrs. Sun buying cotton candy?" Then he said to the vendor, "Give me a cotton candy too."

Sun Lu smirked and nodded slightly: "Yes. I have loved this since I was a child, so I bought some when I saw it."

"I see." Pei Ziqi paused, "Since adults love it, why don't you buy more, after all, it's not easy to buy cotton candy just once." Then, he turned to the peddler: "One more cotton candy, I paid the bill together."

Eunuchs can't go out of the palace at will, but they can go out of the palace at will when they sit at the rank of Sun Lu.However, Emperor Luo could not do without him on weekdays, and it was not easy to go out of the palace.

Sun Lu quickly waved his hand and said, "Lord Pei, no need, no need. I'm already old, and this portion is enough. If I eat too much, I'll get a toothache."

Pei Ziqi smiled politely: "Have you paid? If not..."

Sun Lu snatched the words and said with a smile: "I paid. I have taken this kindness of Mr. Pei to heart." He looked up at the sky, wondering: "I have been out for a while, this..."

Pei Zi Qi Yushan knocked on the palm of his hand, and smiled softly: "Your Excellency, you can go first if you have something to do, don't worry about me. I guess it will take a while for me to stay here."

Sun Lu cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll take my leave first, and see you another day."

Pei Ziqi nodded, looking at Sun Lu's back, his smile gradually disappeared.Under the calm face, a pair of eyes moved faintly...

*******

The broad street was full of people at this time, full of excitement.A restaurant stands in the middle of the street, with a gleaming gold-inlaid signboard with the word 'Qi Zhai' engraved on it.At that time, a middle-aged man was standing at the door.He stood on tiptoe, stretched his head and looked around, his expression full of anxiety.

After a while, another man hurried over.He rolled up his trouser legs, exposing the sole of a wooden foot.He limped forward and said angrily, "Mu Xiaoshu, what do you want from me? You are in a hurry."

Mu Xiaoshu paced the palms of his hands with the back of his hand: "Where is your lord? Didn't you say that your lord is coming? I have been waiting with you for half an hour, and I haven't even seen your lord's shadow."

The man said truthfully: "Master asked me to give you a message first, and he said he would come later. It is estimated that Master will come on foot, not so fast, please wait patiently."

Mu Xiaoshu was in a hurry: "How can you let adults come here on foot! Wang Bangchui, you are really getting better and better! In the barracks before, you were a fool, but now you are a fool!"

The man said displeasedly: "This is the master's order. How dare I disobey the master's words? It's not like you don't know that the master is a man of his own mind."

Mu Xiaoshu was stunned, then sighed: "Then I'll wait..."

"What are you waiting for?" A lazy voice came out of nowhere.Mu Xiaoshu hurriedly turned around, with a happy face: "Master, you are here, I thought you would not come."

Pei Ziqi smiled, said calmly, "I begged you, why didn't you come?" After a pause, he said, "Is it convenient to talk now?"

Mu Xiaoshu responded repeatedly: "Convenient and convenient." He led the way and said: "As soon as Lao Wang informs me, I will prepare the box and wait for you to come. Don't ask for anything. Just give me an order if you have something to do, and everyone is waiting to do things for you."

Pei Ziqi followed behind him with a smile on his face, but remained silent.The two walked through the lively hall and entered the secluded box.Mu Xiaoshu explained: "This private room is in a remote location, not to mention that the guests don't come, even the assistants rarely come. My lord, you can rest assured that you will not be afraid that someone will listen to the corner."

Pei Ziqi smiled: "It doesn't matter, whether they like to listen or not. However, a secluded place is also good, so you can be quiet and quiet."

Uncle Mu poured him a cup of tea: "My lord, what is it that made you come here in person?"

Pei Ziqi took the tea: "I want you to find someone. His name is Wan Tandan, and this person was once the deputy general of Yunjinyun Pioneer."

Back then, the third prince went deep into the belly of the Northwest, and there was no news for seven days in a row.Later, the news came out, but it was a sad news for help.Yun Jin decisively led the army to rescue, but almost the whole army was wiped out and buried in the belly of Northwest.This Wan Tudan was the survivor, and it was he who brought the news of Yunjin's death back to the capital.

Uncle Mu sat down, frowned and said: "I remember that after the news of Yun Xianfeng's death was reported back to Beijing, this person disappeared not long after. Now that it's been many years, I'm afraid it will be hard to find and it will take some time."

Pei Ziqi smiled lightly, as if he really didn't care: "It doesn't matter, it's always good to find it, it doesn't matter if you can't find it."

Mu Xiaoshu was silent for a while, hesitatingly said: "My lord, you have more opinions than I do. You should know what happened back then. It would be best to ask His Highness the Third Prince. He is the person involved, so he knows much better than others. Now His Highness the Third Prince lives in your residence. superior……"

Picking up the teacup, Pei Ziqi interrupted, "It's not appropriate to involve the third prince in this matter. Not to mention him, even I should not be involved, so I entrust you to find this person."

Mu Xiaoshu was stunned: "Could it be that something strange happened back then?"

Pei Ziqi took a sip of tea: "It's better not to know too much, it won't do you any good." Then he said: "If you can't find the Wanqi Dan, you can try to find other survivors."

Mu Xiaoshu answered firmly, and said confidently: "You have given such a large range, and we will definitely find it for you."

Pei Ziqi put down his teacup: "Okay, I'll trouble you to worry about this matter." Then he stood up and said, "I have something important to do so I won't stay any longer. If you have any news, send someone to report to your house, I will Will come for you."

Mu Xiaoshu opened the door for him, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about what we do. We are all from the house, so how can we not understand your rules. Whether it is troublesome or not, these are what we should do , Your Excellency, you are polite."

Pei Ziqi smiled and said nothing more.He walked from the backyard, got into the carriage directly, straightened his clothes and said, "Go to the Sun Mansion, move faster."

The coachman yelled and drove the carriage forward quickly.After a stick of incense, they arrived at the Sun Mansion.Pei Ziqi got out of the carriage alone, looking at the vermilion gate, his face flickered.He walked up the steps, grabbed the copper ring and slammed it against the wealthy door.

After a while, the Zhumen slowly opened.One head stuck out, looked fixedly, opened the door hastily, and said with a smile: "Master Pei, you are here. Please come in quickly, please come in."

Pei Ziqi stepped into the door, chuckled and said, "What are you doing?"

The servant was embarrassed and said: "I just dozed off for a while, and only woke up when I heard a knock on the door. No, I moved a little slower. Mr. Pei, you don't see the villain."

Pei Ziqi raised his eyebrows and smiled, and asked again: "Where is your master? Are you practicing martial arts in the backyard again?"

The boy closed the door and said, "No, it's in the study." Then he said, "Master Pei, please wait for a moment. I'll send someone to inform the master that you are here."

Pei Ziqi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's weird, it's actually in the study." Then, he pressed the boy's shoulder: "You don't need to pay this gift, and let him come out to pick me up, I'll Just go to him directly." After speaking, he let go of his hand, placed one hand in front of his abdomen, and strode forward.

******

The door was slightly closed, and the tall figure in the study elongated his shadow.He was dressed in an elegant white robe, with his head slightly bowed, and there was a tired and sad cloud between his brows.Pei Ziqi stood outside the door, watching quietly.After staying for a while, he cleared his throat and jokingly said, "The sun is coming out from the west today? It's white clothes and a study, it's not like you."

Sun Hancheng looked up, and the cloud of sorrow dissipated in an instant, and replied with a smile: "Why are you here? These bastards in the house should be taught a lesson, and you didn't notify me when you came..."

Pei Ziqi entered the study room, waved his hand and said, "Come on, we still have to argue..." Then the words suddenly stopped, and his eyes fell on the table.He walked in with great interest, and pointed to the cotton candy in the leaves: "Cotton candy? Are you out?"

Sun Hancheng shook his head, and said without hesitation: "No. My father is here, and he brought it to me." Then he said: "You came to see me today for something?"

Pei Ziqi glanced at the marshmallows on the table, sighed and took out the marshmallows from his arms: "I know you like to eat them, so I bought some when I saw them on the road. I guess you have father's marshmallows, you should I don't care about my cotton candy anymore."

Sun Hancheng snatched it from his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't say it's just a little, I can eat ten times more."

Pei Ziqi joked: "I said you are over twenty, and you still like to eat this kind of children's stuff, and you are not afraid of toothache if you eat too much."

Sun Hancheng unfolded the reed leaves, poked a piece of marshmallow with a wooden stick, and quickly stuffed it into his mouth.While eating, he said, "I have good teeth, so don't worry about it. What you give me is mine, so don't make up your mind."

Pei Ziqi saw how he was protecting the calf, and couldn't help laughing: "Do you know that it is easy to eat people with short hands?"

"I know, please ask me if you have anything to do." Sun Hancheng put down the marshmallow in his hand, and sat on a chair beside him with his legs crossed: "Tell me, if the matter is not difficult, I will accept it."

"I want you to check someone for me." Pei Ziqi lost his smile, and said word by word: "The Minister of the Ministry of Officials Zhou Xing."
