After drinking and eating, Ximen Qingqing was about to go home, but Gao Yanei took her hand to pretend to be crazy with wine, and refused to let go.

"Brother, you have to come earlier at one o'clock tomorrow... Hiccup, I still have a lot of good things to show my brother."

His face was red from the smell of alcohol, and he showed a silly smile, "Hey, big baby."

Ximen Qingqing shook his hands in disgust, and comforted him with a smile on his face: "Okay, okay, I'll deliver the greeting card tomorrow."

Gao Yanei nodded, but still did not let go.

"Yanei, is there anything else?"

Gao Yanei rubbed against Ximen Qingqing: "Brother, why don't I be with you tonight..."

What a beautiful thing to think of!You can't even think of me as a beautiful girl!

Ximen Qingqing pressed his forehead and pushed him away.

Gao Yanei smacked his lips, the corners of his mouth were bent down, he was really wronged.

Ximen Qingqing smiled and said, "See you tomorrow in the Yamen."

She flicked her sleeves, turned and left.

However, Gao Yanei stared at Ximen Qingqing's handsome back, which turned into a bewitching blue mark under the setting sun.

"Alas, alas, alas."

He sighed three times in a row.

Fu An, the helper at the side, understood his intentions and said, "If the yamen wants to get this Ximen official, it's not impossible."

Gao Yanei turned his head and stared at him blankly.

Fu An thought that Gao Yanei really had such intentions, so in order to please the Yamen, he smiled and said: "We snatched him, if it didn't work, we gave him medicine, and after doing this a few times, he could only give in and let the Yamen manipulate him."

As soon as Fu An finished speaking, Gao Yanei slapped him with a big ear.

With a crisp sound of "pa", Fu An was stunned.

"Bah!" Gao Yanei spat, "Who do you treat as a rabbit master! My brother is also something you can imagine."

Fu'an was extremely wronged: "It's not that the yamen wants to..."

Gao Yanei was anxious: "What do you think, I don't! I'm not a broken sleeve!"

Fu An: "But the yamen always stares at the Ximen officials with such anxious eyes, how could it be meaningless?"

"I...I..." Gao Yanei's chest couldn't stop heaving, but he didn't know what to say.

He clenched his fists and asked Fu An: "Am I... really so obvious?"

Fu An nodded sharply.

He looked at the other boys, who also nodded their heads.

He actually misses his brother?

Gao Yanei blinked, his expression was dazed, and he didn't know what he thought of, his face suddenly turned red and he was sweating profusely.

At this time, a gust of cool wind passed through the hall, making the sweaty Gao Ya Nei shiver abruptly.

It was the first time that he understood his feelings for Ximenqing, Gao Yanei was ashamed, angry, anxious and afraid, and hurriedly asked the servant to take him back to the mansion.

……

At night, Pan Jinlian didn't come back, so Ximen Qingqing stopped waiting for him, packed up and went to sleep by himself.

That night, Ximen Qingqing had a dream. In the dream, the dark night sky was filled with countless glowing spheres, and those spheres were floating in the night sky, like fluorescent jellyfish swimming in the deep sea.

She just stared at these fluorescent jellyfish all night.

When he woke up the next day, Ximen Qingqing still felt strange about this dream.

How bored she was to watch jellyfish in her dreams all night.

Ximen Qingqing's eyes fell on a purse next to the pillow, which contained a bunch of hair.

She put the purse in her arms and put it next to her body before getting up and getting dressed.

Today, she is mainly going to visit Cai Jing and Gao Qiu.

These two are famous treacherous ministers, if she hangs out with them, she is really afraid of being beaten with a sap when walking at night.

Although she was not on the same side as them, she couldn't just jump off their wrecked ship right now.

Cai Jing's mansion.

Ximen Qingqing cheered up and talked to Cai Jing. Cai Jing seemed to be very busy, so he only said a few words, asking her to behave well, and he could mention her more in front of His Majesty in the future.

Ximen Qingqing said in his heart: I'm afraid I'm going to hand over the benefits again, right?

Cai Jing said to her again: "This year's old man's birthday is planned to be simple, and you don't have to work hard to collect any rare treasures for this old man."

The corner of Ximen Qingqing's mouth twitched.

Bah, what you mean by this is that you want me to hand in rare treasures!

Seeing that Cai Jing was staring at him, Ximen Qingqing hurriedly said, "The prime minister is kind-hearted and has a noble character, but Donglou should also respect the elders."

Donglou is Ximenqing's character.

Cai Jing nodded and said: "Donglou, you have always been filial, and I will definitely mention you to Your Majesty."

Ximen Qingqing: Hehe.

"It's just that the old man has seen you in Donglou, and you seem to be a little different these days."

Ximen Qingqing was startled, and looked at Cai Jing blankly.

Could this old fox see that she wasn't the original one?

Cai Jing stroked his beard, looked at Ximen Qingqing calmly, and said, "Donglou is indeed a young man. I saw you a few days ago, but you were just a child, but now you look even more handsome."

Ximen Qingqing put his legs together and acted shyly like a boy: "The prime minister is too flattering."

Cai Jing: "Unfortunately, you are married."

Ximen Qingqing: Why not?Are you going to arrange another marriage for me and completely tie me to your big ship of "traitor"?

Cai Jing's eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After drinking half a bowl of tea, he got up.

"Donglou, just sit down, I won't accompany you if I have business to do."

Ximen Qingqing: "The prime minister's business is important."

She keeps sending Chae-kyung out the door.

Cai Jing patted her on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "The old man knows that you are loyal. Don't be impatient when you are young. It should be yours and you will be indispensable."

Ximen Qingqing smiled, but said in his heart: How lacking are you, I can still be called loyal if I always want to change jobs.

Ximen Qingqing felt that his pretense of Ximen Qing was full of loopholes, but it happened to Cai Jing's appetite.

Cai Jing felt that the jerky and resistance in her speech were all due to her youthful nature, so that Ximen Qing, who had not completely turned into a veteran in the officialdom, was refreshing to him, and it also made Cai Jing, who was getting older, feel that she was a rare sincere person around her, ready to Promote her more in the future.

This is a big misunderstanding.

……

Ximen Qingqing was busy going to Cai Jing's mansion in the morning, so she didn't have a good breakfast at all. When she came out of Cai's mansion, she was so hungry that her chest was stuck to her back. It happened that at this time, she smelled a strong fragrance that hit her stomach.

Following the scent, Ximen Qingqing found a food stall at the end of the alley. The owner of the stall was an old man, who was holding a large pot, and there were two tables and a few benches around it.

The table was already full of people, and some customers squatted by the wall with their bowls in their hands to eat.

Ximen Qingqing sniffed, and couldn't wait to ask: "Old man, what kind of food are you cooking?"

The stall owner grinned: "This is my family's secret recipe of brain soup, which is most suitable for this early spring weather. Would you like a bowl?"

Ximen Qingqing stood by the pot and took a look inside.

There are meatballs, wontons, eggs and some day lily in the pot. The soup is thick and fragrant.

Ximen Qingqing said cheerfully, "Old man, bring me a bowl!"

She took out a few copper coins and threw them into the broken bowl next to the old man's pot, making a crisp sound of "clang, clang, clang".

"Okay!" The old man immediately filled a bowl full for her.

Ximen Qingqing held the bowl of brain soup in both hands, grinning hotly, but couldn't find a place to eat. It was too indecent for her to squat in the corner with them. It's also someone who sets the burden!

She finally found a low wall, put her brain soup on the low wall quickly, and kept blowing on her red fingers.

I only heard a voice from the other side of the low wall: "It's a pity that no one in Tokyo knows my precious sword."

Ximen Qingqing stood on tiptoe and could barely see what was going on beyond the low wall.

I saw a man in shabby clothes walking around with a dazzling sword on his shoulders, hawking loudly.

It's really strange, how can anyone sell knives in the alleys where no one is selling them.

Ximen Qingqing took a closer look, the man kept staring at the person passing by him, and said loudly: "My precious sword is a military weapon, is it true that no one wants to buy it?"

As he said that, he deliberately shook the blade, so that a bright light reflected on the blade reflected on the face of the man.

What kind of bureau is this?

Ximen Qingqing said in his heart: It's great that today's good person and good deed haven't been done yet, so let's help that person.

She raised her arms and shouted: "That knife seller over there, bring it here, bring it here, I want to buy it!"

The man with the knife stiffened his back, pretending not to hear, and still staring at the man.

The man's eyes were dazzled by the light on the knife, he turned around and stared at the treasured knife.

"Your knife..."

The man hurriedly said, "Do you want it?"

The man looked at the treasured sword reluctantly: "Since someone else asked for it first, then I won't take away people's love."

The man choked for a moment. He glanced at Ximen Qingqing who was jumping behind the low wall, and said with disdain: "Although I am so embarrassed that I have to sell the family-heirloom sword, I am not willing to let its pearl be dusted. He looks like he can’t even lift a knife, hmph, my knife is taller than his.”

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

Nima, you are insulting people by saying that!

The man stretched out his hand and said, "May I borrow your knife to have a look."

The man handed the sword into the man's hand, and before the man could take a closer look, the sword was snatched away.

However, Ximen Qingqing, who grabbed the knife, couldn't handle such a heavy knife, so he smashed the knife to the ground with a "clam", almost hurting her ankle.

The man shouted: "What are you doing!"

Ximen Qingqing taught stepping on a treasured sword: "Make an offer, I'll buy it."

Man: "I won't sell you, I won't sell you, get out!"

Ximen Qingqing raised his eyebrows: "Really not for sale?"

The man pushed Ximen Qingqing: "Of course!"

Ximen Qingqing raised his voice and shouted: "Everyone, don't miss it when you pass by. There is a thief who steals arms and sells them here. Please kind-hearted people help to report to the official!"

The man became anxious, and he opened his big hand to beat her, but was stopped by the man.

"Brother, you want to sell knives, she wants to buy knives, why make such a fuss?"

The man became even more anxious: "What the hell do you know!"

Ximen Qingqing folded his arms and said with a smile: "Yes, what do you know, maybe he was ordered by someone to sell this knife to you."

That person: "What?"

The man rolled his eyes, turned around and ran, and slipped out of the alley in a short while.

There was still something that the man didn't understand. He cupped his hands and said to Ximen Qingqing: "Thank you, this official, for pointing out the maze. In Xialin Chong, he is the instructor of the 80 imperial guards."

Ximen Qingqing was taken aback.

Lin Chong?

She looked at the knife under her feet, and then at the handsome and loyal Lin Chong.

It turned out that she had encountered this scene.

Ximen Qingqing smiled and waved his hands.

Lin Chong asked tentatively, "Perhaps... the officials once saved my wife?"

Ximen Qingqing: "How do you know?"

Lin Chong said with a smile: "The lady said that she was rescued by a handsome official. As long as I saw him, I would know it. I didn't understand until I saw the official."

Lin Chong said honestly: "Officials are so beautiful, they are unique in the world."

Ximen Qingqing raised his head proudly: "That's natural, who made me the protagonist?"

Lin Chong looked bewildered.

Ximen Qingqing tiptoed and patted him on the shoulder: "You work so hard, so you can stand out from the crowd in this way. You don't know that you still have the biggest advantage."

"what?"

"Beautiful and strong, let me tell you that the current readers like you!"

Lin Chong's face was full of bewilderment, and he didn't understand a word.

Ximen Qingqing brushed her hair and stood against the wind.

"Oh, you don't understand, and you don't understand the invincibility of the protagonist because you are not the protagonist, how lonely invincibility is..."

"Yo, whose brain soup is this?"

Ximen Qingqing couldn't care less about the concave shape and hurried over, eagerly said: "Mine, mine, it's all mine."

She stood on tiptoe and was about to reach for it, but a big hand stretched out from the top of her head and took the brain soup away.

The author has something to say: Both "Water Margin" and "Jin Ping Mei" mentioned drinking brain soup. I have read relevant information about brain soup before, and it feels a bit like the current Hu spicy soup.
