Stirring up with the old enemy

In the end, Chen Jingming couldn't wait outside the Golden Palace for the news that His Majesty or Da Sikong had summoned him. When officials passed by him one after another, they would glance at him more or less with different expressions.

Pei Yuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, came out last, and walking side by side with him was Lu Ji, the general of Sanqi.

When Pei Yuan passed by Chen Jingming, he suddenly stopped, raised his head, his apricot eyes were full of tears, and gave him a vicious look.Lu Ji immediately grabbed the cuff of Pei Yuan's official robe, and said in a low voice, "Ah Yuan, don't cause trouble."

Chen Jingming was already alarmed.He raised his eyelids and looked Pei Yuan up and down.Pei Yuan's face was originally like a powder, but now it is even whiter, almost pale.

White miserable, like a living ghost.

So what happened at the meeting just now?

Chen Jingming frowned unknowingly, and thought to himself, Mr. Yuemo will dismiss him from the position of Prime Minister of Yushi Taigou as promised this morning, but this is a good thing for Pei Yuan!For one thing, he intervened in the case of Lu Yang Fan's family as the censor Taichung Cheng, which was an overreach to Pei Yuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple; He is a thorn in the side.Now that he has been dismissed from office, Pei Yuan can only applaud, but why does he look pale and dejected?

"Are you happy now?" Pei Yuan struggled to break away from Lu Ji's hand, and threw himself in front of Chen Jingming, straightening his neck, with anger hanging from the end of his eyes, and scolded sharply: "Even if you are demoted to a commoner, you have to be shameless." Dragging Pinglehou all over the place, right? Oh, a poor family is a poor family, just such shameless! You are deliberately trying to drag him into the quagmire!"

"A Yuan!" Lu Ji couldn't hold him back just now, and saw Pei Yuan yelling at him, and when it came to the matter of picking up scholars from a poor family that is the most taboo between the emperor and Da Sikong, his face immediately changed, and he said loudly: "Here is Palace gate!"

Pei Yuan glared at Chen Jingming angrily, his face full of hostility.After ten breaths, he was gasping for breath, and his face became more and more gray and defeated.After a few more breaths, when even Lu Ji thought he was calm, he suddenly stared at Chen Jingming with blank eyes, and let out a stern laugh.

"Yes, you are amazing! You have an imperial decree from His Majesty, hahahaha! I only have pity on my Brother Achun, he, he is about to be killed by you!"

Chen Jingming's face was puzzled, but it made him uncomfortable to hear Hao Chun mentioned in such a tone, as if Hao Chun belonged to his family!Chen Jingming laughed out loud, and said coldly: "The matter with Lord Pingle, I'm afraid...it has nothing to do with Pei Shaoqing?"

"Shaoqing? Hahahaha, that's right, my position as Shaoqing in Dali Temple is gone." Pei Yuan gritted his teeth and stared at Chen Jingming, Xingzi's eyes were bloodshot, and he cursed bitterly: "Chen, Jing, Ming, you What a disaster! You will only harm people!"

Lu Ji was afraid that he would say something rebellious again, so he quickly raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose, and held him back forcefully. Regardless of Pei Yuan's fists and kicks to resist, he half dragged and half hugged him away from Chen Jingming.Pei Yuan's mouth and nose were covered, his face was as pale as a piece of paper, but his eyes kept staring at Chen Jingming with hatred.

Like a hook, he wished he could pluck the skin and bones from Chen Jingming's face.

Chen Jingming quietly watched Pei Yuan go crazy, his long eyebrows were deeply frowned, and the internal fire was also burning anxiously. He wished he could punch Pei Yuan's pretty face like a boy tied in paper, and warn this living ghost to stay away from Hao Chun. some!But he remembered what Cheng Huaijing told him privately before, telling him not to cause trouble, and just waited at the gate of the palace in despair.

The specific news, the teacher did not say.

Chen Jingming took a few deep breaths, clenched his fists under the sleeves, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.After a while, he pretended to be obedient and lowered his head again, shrugged his shoulders, and waited for the crowd to disperse without saying a word.The sun hit his shoulders and crowned his hair, and it was hot in July, and it was so hot that white smoke seemed to be emitting from the soles of his feet.

"Master Chen," finally a small yellow door tiptoed, seeing no one around, beckoning to him furtively. "Master Chen, come here!"

Chen Jingming hurriedly walked closer, and just as he stood firmly, he heard the little yellow door tiptoe up to his ear and whispered a very soft word. "Your Majesty ordered everything to go according to plan."

Immediately afterwards, the little yellow door deliberately raised his voice again, rolled his eyes, raised his high-pitched voice, and called out. "Come on, Mr. Chen, you can hurry up and kneel there!"

Xiao Huangmen pointed, yes, this time he couldn't even enter the Nine Dragon Palace, so he was asked to kneel on a bare piece of land at the east corner of the palace gate.The place was chosen very well, and there was not even a shaded area under a tree.

Chen Jingming pursed his lips, walked to the place pointed by Xiaohuangmen calmly, lifted the corner of his robe, and knelt down on his knees.

**

"What? Why is he kneeling again?"

Hao Chun waited for a long time in Pinglehou's mansion. He didn't wait for Chen Jingming to come to the martial arts training ground to look for him. He just waited for the news and exploded on the spot.He stood the red-tasseled spear in the sand with a thud, and said angrily with sweat on his temples: "Did this guy get kicked by a donkey? Huh? Your Majesty doesn't want to see him. Did he kneel out of the blue brick floor of the Nine Dragon Hall?" When a flower comes, can His Majesty forgive him?"

"Your Majesty, the place where Madam knelt is not the Nine Dragon Palace." Wang Lao's maid sighed with a bitter face. "Madam is kneeling at the gate of the palace! This, this poisonous sun, only our lady's small body, ouch!"

Hao Chun was even angrier when he heard this.Although Chen Jingming is tall and tall, his bones are thin, and he can be swept away by a gust of wind when he walks.Besides, that guy has a bad waist!

"He's just a fool!" Hao Chun threw down his gun and left, angrily saying as he walked, "Why do you think I'm so unlucky, young master? Hmm? Well, what kind of fight did you have with him on Zhuque Avenue? The result is good." Well, I was married by His Majesty by accident, and I made a foolish wife!"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" The poor Wang Lao Nei had to trot all the way to keep up, and when he heard him criticize Emperor Yong'an, he hurriedly persuaded him: "Master Hou, please keep your voice down! Your Majesty's embroidered clothes are not No matter where you are, you don’t know why you are caught without restraint! Hey, Lord Hou? Lord Hou, please run slowly!”

Hao Chun felt the wind on the soles of his feet, and he arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion in the blink of an eye.boom!He slammed into a man in the chest.Looking up, it was a young Huangmen in the palace, wearing carved feathers, dressed in green, holding an imperial decree in his hand.

"Lord Pingle?" Huang Men was overjoyed when he saw him, and immediately turned his anger into joy, and with the imperial decree between them, he straightened the carved feathers that were knocked crooked by him. "I can't find Chen Yushi anywhere, no, I heard that he moved to live with you, but by coincidence, I ran into you, Lord Hou, at your residence."

Hao Chun opened his eyes and looked. "Eunuch Qi? Why are you here? Is this decree for me, or for that Chen?"

"For Mr. Chen." Qi Huangmen hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "In theory, we shouldn't call him Mr. Chen now. This morning, His Majesty personally took Mr. Degraded to a commoner, he will have to leave Chang'an before the city gates are closed at dusk."

"Why?" Hao Chun was taken aback, but on his face he deliberately pretended not to know the news at all. "What did he do?"

"Oh, this is a long story." Qi Huangmen sighed, holding the imperial edict in his hands, looking at Hao Chun from the corner of his eyes, and said: "Master Hou, why don't you help him receive the edict first?"

Hao Chun bared his teeth and smiled. "Grandpa Qi, wait a moment, I'll go to the gate of the palace and take him back to the Hou's mansion first."

"Oh, why is it still at the gate of the palace!" Qi Huangmen sighed again. "That's where we came from, and we didn't see anyone else at all! Otherwise, how could we come to the Hou Mansion to announce the decree?"

Hey, isn't that fellow Chen Jingming kneeling at the gate of the palace?He was planning to go get that guy!Why did it disappear again?

Hao Chun turned his head to look at the panting old servant Wang who was chasing after him.

Panting, Wang's servant put his hands on his knees, and yelled, "Master Hou, you can run slower! Ma'am, he can't run anymore."

"Eunuch Wang," Qi Huangmen hurriedly called out when he saw Mr. Wang's servant, and said affectionately, "It's been a long time since you met, you're still in good health."

In the old days, the old prince's servant was in the deep palace, but he was a celebrity who served the emperor personally!Qi Huangmen was still sweeping the floor at the gate of the ruined palace at that time, facing the crazy Empress Min every day, sweeping dead leaves with a bamboo broom.At that time, Qi Huangmen was so hungry that he was so thin that he had to nod and kneel down to salute anyone.

Qi Huangmen is used to being humble, and when he saw the former top celebrity in the palace, Mr. Wang's servant, he was subconsciously scared for the most part.

Wang Lao's servant raised his head and glanced at Qi Huangmen, with a reserved smile on his face. "Hey, Xiao Qi, are you here to make an announcement today?"

"That's not it," Qi Huangmen said with a smile immediately: "Isn't this the marriage between Lord Hou and Mr. Chen? Since we couldn't find Mr. Chen, we came to the Hou's mansion."

Wang Lao's servant heard that he didn't even call "Chen Yushi" or "Master Chen", and his heart skipped a beat, knowing that what Qi Huangmen advocated was probably the intention of cutting officials.He rolled his eyes at Hao Chun, and seeing that Hao Chun's complexion was not good-looking, he smiled warmer and warmer, pulled Qi Huangmen and said: "Our wife of the Hou's Mansion is not here, Xiao Qi, I will take you to the flower hall first, drink Pot of tea."

"No, no, His Majesty's will is important."

"Hey, have a sip of tea to moisten your throat before reading." Mr. Wang's servant grabbed Qi Huangmen carelessly, stumbling him, and immediately began to talk. "Xiao Qi, do you think that after our wife of the Hou Mansion was expelled from Chang'an, should she be sent back to her hometown Nanyang, or should she be exiled in a designated place?"

"Exile, it's out of the question." Qi Huangmen yelled in a high-pitched voice, and when he finished laughing, seeing Mr. Wang's servant still staring at him, he laughed a few times in embarrassment. Finally, he had no choice but to falter. : "According to, it is said that he was sent to Jiangnan."

Mr. Wang's servant immediately cast a look at Hao Chun.

Hao Chun understood, and acted impatiently, yelling that he was about to leave the house. "You two drink tea first, I will go find that guy surnamed Chen."

"Hey, Lord Hou, Lord Hou..."

Hao Chun never looked back, and pretended not to hear Qi Huangmen's urgent calls to him from behind.As soon as he went out, he quickly led Yu Huacong, stepped on his horse, and looked for Chen Jingming along the route from Pinglehou Mansion to Weiyang Palace.

However, Chen Jingming seemed to have evaporated from the world, leaving no trace anywhere.

"Wow—!"

Hao Chun reined in the horse's head, raised two thick eyebrows of Jucui, and thought to himself, that guy can't ask Cheng Da Sikong to poke him secretly, can he?Trial before killing?Beating into a trick?Cheng Da Sikong is always ruthless and ruthless. He is a monster known to everyone in the government and the public. It is said that even his elder brother, nephew, and nephew of the Cheng family in Hejian do not get a little care from him.That guy Chen Jingming is exhausted, that is, a nominal disciple of Cheng Da Sikong, how much affection can he have?

Thinking that that guy might die, Hao Chun's heart skipped a beat and his breathing became short of breath.

"Lord Pingle?"

Hao Chun turned around in surprise, and saw another horse coming towards him. The horse was a Dawan horse, and he was also handsome. It was Lu Ji who was now leading the general of Sanqi.

"Hey, why are you so polite?" Hao Chun immediately narrowed his eyes and turned the horse's head with a smile, and went up to him and walked side by side. "Don't you usually call him by his first name? What's the matter, you look so bad?"

Lu Ji had a straight face, without a trace of a smile. "A Yuan is sick, and I am looking for you."

"A Yuan? A Yuan of the Pei family?" Hao Chun raised a pair of thick eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What happened to him?"

"Your Majesty dismissed him as an official and ordered him to return to his hometown immediately. A Yuan was young and his body was weak. He couldn't bear this blow for a while, and fell into hysteria before he left the palace."

Pei Yuan has hysteria, Hao Chun knows this.This guy has been weak and sickly since he was a child, and he is a noble son who simmers out of medicine pots all day long.

But Pei Yuan was dismissed from office?

"No way, he's been working as a young minister in Dali Temple, and he doesn't participate in the discussion. How can he just be his official?" Hao Chun made it clear that he didn't believe it.

Lu Ji's face became more and more ugly, and he said calmly, "It's not because of you!"

"My business?" Hao Chun pointed the tip of his whip at the tip of his nose and screamed strangely. "What's the matter with me, my lord? Besides, he's dismissed from office, what's the matter with me, my lord?"

"Master Hou really doesn't know?" Lu Ji grabbed Hao Chun's crotch suddenly, put down Yu Huacong's halter, his handsome face was livid.After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said angrily in a low voice: "This is the end, Lord Hou, don't act any more!"

Hao Chun's face was full of bewilderment, but he hung his face unhappily when he got off the horse. "Lu Laoliu, don't rely on the good relationship between our two brothers. What you said is open and secret, I don't understand. Besides, Pei Yuan is sick, so let him find a doctor, bluntly." Why did you come to find me, Master?"

Lu Ji seemed to believe it or not, looked Hao Chun up and down with his eyes open, and saw that he really looked ignorant, and suddenly understood that the Lord Pingle had never cared about Pei Yuan's thoughts.Lu Ji was silent for a moment, suddenly feeling sad in his heart.He held Hao Chun's crotch in his hand, lowered Yuhua's bridle, half-curled his lips, and gave a gloomy smile. "Today in the early court, A Yuan was arguing with His Majesty and Da Sikong in the palace, saying that since the man surnamed Chen has been dismissed from office, since the establishment of the dynasty, the court has explicitly ordered officials not to marry, and now Lord Hou and the man surnamed Chen It would be better to withdraw the marriage contract. I never thought about it, but A Yuan annoyed His Majesty because of this sentence, and he didn't even have to be an official of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple."

Hao Chun frowned secretly, but smiled brightly with two small canine teeth, and said loudly on purpose: "That is a marriage contract bestowed by His Majesty, why should he, Pei Yuan, intervene?"

Lu Ji looked at him, smiling more and more sinisterly with a sullen face. "A Yuan was dismissed as an official for you, but you complained about his meddling. It can be seen that 'the bright moon shines on the ditch since ancient times'!"

Hao Chun bared his teeth and laughed. "Hey! Talking is talking, don't scold people! Young master, I have a beautiful face and bright eyes, how can I become a muddy ditch?"

Lu Ji was not in the mood to chat and laugh with him at all, so he hugged his Yuhua Cong, and said bitterly, "Let's go see A Yuan together!"

Hao Chun subconsciously clamped his legs on the horse's belly and took half a step back. Unexpectedly, Yu Huacong was so hot-tempered that Lu Ji forcibly restrained him for a long time. He was already impatient, and now he took the opportunity to raise his head and forcefully raise his front hoof, kicking towards Lu Ji's crotch . Get off the short-footed Dawan horse.

Lu Ji flew into a rage, grabbed his long arm, and jumped up like a monkey to attack Hao Chun who was on horseback.Hao Chun immediately bent his waist back softly, his upper body was almost parallel to the horse's back, avoiding the blow perfectly.

Hao Chun withdrew a foot away with his horse, and shouted, "Why are you still doing it?"

Lu Ji urged the horse to approach, and while greeting with fists, he cursed bitterly: "The surname is Hao, are you going to see A Yuan?"

"Go, go!" Hao Chun turned his body over again, just in time to face Lu Ji's fist, he hurriedly grasped it, and said with a playful smile: "Can it be done a little later? Master, I am in a hurry to find someone, really Urgent! That Eunuch Qi in the palace is still in my residence!"

Lu Ji crushed Hao Chun's fist viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "Why did he go to your house?"

"I don't know!" Hao Chun laughed like a rascal, and slapped his lips. "When the people are sent away, I don't need you to tell me, young master, I will definitely send someone to Pei's mansion. But the person sent by His Majesty is still there, and His Majesty can't wait!"

Lu Ji's face was so heavy that he could drip ice water, and said word by word: "He wants you to see him in person!"

Hao Chun immediately thought of Pei Yuan secretly kissing him in Dali Temple.Oh, hey, don't this kid really have any thoughts about him?That's no good, he's four years younger than him, and thinking about it makes me shudder.

"Why?" Hao Chun rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "It's uncomfortable for him to be dismissed from office, this young master knows. But young master, I'm not a doctor, so what can I do when I go?"

"A Yuan can't be recognized by anyone now." Lu Ji smiled sadly, staring at Hao Chun with gloomy eyes. "He doesn't even know his own parents. He only knows you, and he only remembers your name and surname, Lord Pingle. The soup and medicine can't be poured down, and the medicine Shiwang is doctor...Master Hou, you are A Yuan's medicine."

hiss!

Hao Chun yelled in his heart that it was not good, and the slightest bit of cold air rushed to the tip of his heart.No, he won't be able to go!Don't you want to die?

"Then what, don't worry." Hao Chun's eyes rolled, and he chatted with Lu Ji. "When I find the person surnamed Chen, I will definitely go to Pei's mansion. Isn't His Majesty's imperial decree the most important thing? My master, I have to find the person who receives the decree first."

Lu Ji hesitated for a moment, Hao Chun hurriedly took the opportunity to drive Yu Huacong to escape Lu Ji's control completely.Yu Huacong spread his hooves and flew out with an arrow. Hao Chun hurriedly turned around and shouted with a loud smile, "Don't worry! Before the lights are lit tonight, I will definitely go to Pei's mansion in person! If I don't go, you At that time, just come to Pinglehou's mansion to arrest me, if you are caught, I will go to Pei's mansion to plead guilty!"

Yuhuacong is a rare steed in Yingtian, comparable to His Majesty's Silver Snow.When running, the horseshoes are as fast as thunder, and they can travel thousands of miles a day without getting tired.

Chase, but I can't catch up.

Lu Jihen's teeth itch, his face was gloomy, he silently stared at Hao Chun's back, and finally turned his horse's head and went straight to Pei's mansion alone.

"...Master Chen, did you hear everything?"

Chen Jingming, who was standing by the window on the second floor, lowered his eyes and was silent for a while before he sneered.He turned his back to the two people sitting in the side room without turning his head, and said indifferently: "The leader of the embroidered clothes guard specially brought Chen here, is it a good idea, will Pingle Hou Ye pass through this? "

Could it be that the teacher specially arranged for him to hear Hao Chun admit that he cared for Pei Yuan?For what, to make him give up?

In the wing room, the leader of the embroidered guards, who was dressed in black and almost blended into the shadow, frowned, and then turned his eyes to Lan Mei, the minister of Dali Temple, who was sitting blankly next to him.

Lan Mei shuddered under Dark Eleven's eyes, and hurriedly turned to Chen Jingming's direction and said embarrassingly: "Well, Eleventh Master asked about the plan of how to do things after going to Jiangnan just now, Mr. Chen, you can hear clearly without?"

Chen Jingming frowned, and looked back at Lan Mei and An Shili. "What do you two adults mean?"

An Shiyi's face was paralyzed, and his voice was flat and authentic: "Mr. Chen's name has been crossed out on Da Sikong's attendance sheet for all officials, and Mr. Lan has a back sore. The two adults must conceal their names and identities. , if you encounter any trouble when investigating the case in the south of the Yangtze River, you can send someone to Dongting."

"Dongting Town?" Chen Jingming frowned, and his mind finally returned to the topic at hand from Hao Chun who was riding past outside the window. "How can I find Master Eleven after I go?"

"Of course I won't go." An Shili still had a slumped face, and his tone was flat without any ups and downs. "There is a dark thread raised by the embroidered guards in the archway building of the Dongting Pavilion."

"So," Lan Mei grimaced sadly. "When are we leaving?"

"Your Majesty told Da Sikong that Jiangnan Road is connected to the world's granaries, and it is not scary to sell an official. What is scary is whether there is any food in the granary. This year is hot and rainy, and the north is going to be deserted. If there is anything on the south of the Yangtze River, Check for leaks and fill vacancies early, so that nothing will go wrong at the end of the year."

Lan Mei was terrified and moved. For the first time, she was not so resistant to the fact that her family was so unlucky to be caught as an undercover errand, so she leaned over to ask Dark Eleven. "Drought in the south of the Yangtze River? Such a big event, why didn't I hear the booklet from Jiangnan Road?"

"It's midsummer at this moment, and it is a rainy day in the south of the Yangtze River as usual. In previous years, there were even floods along the Yangtze River, but this year the dry river section of the Yangtze River even exposed the river bed." Chen Jingming answered, facing Lanmei He arched his hands. "Master Lan has always worked in Dali Temple and is in charge of prisons. I'm afraid he doesn't care about civil affairs such as river management."

Lan Mei was a little unhappy. "Although I am in Dali Temple, I must be there every day for the court meeting. I have never asked for leave since last year's winter festival. No one has reported this matter!"

"That's why it's even more suspicious." Chen Jingming raised his long eyebrows and smiled coolly. "Since last year, Jiangnan has only had a monthly report of safety, and has never reported any problems with grain. But the riverbanks are dry and the people are displaced, so that bandits are rampant everywhere. The Embroidered Guard knows this best But that's all."

Dark Eleven nodded with a slumped face. "Yes, it's the news from the Embroidered Clothes Guardian who stayed behind in Jiangnan."

Lan Mei's back was covered with hot sweat. He looked at Chen Jingming in a blink of an eye, especially looking at Chen Jingming's thin arms and legs a few more times.This little Zhuangyuan Lang has slender arms and legs, and he has no strength to restrain a chicken. He is also a student. What if he goes to Jiangnan to handle a case and encounters black hands?

"Your Excellency, do you have any concerns?" Chen Jingming raised his head, looking at him with a pair of lacquered eyes.

"Ah, this," Lan Mei laughed awkwardly, and muttered in a low voice: "It's nothing for you and me to investigate the case. It was originally our job. But I just said that there are now everywhere on Jiangnan Road. We are robbers, you and I have to change our names, we can’t bring any songs or companions, if it’s urgent, I’m afraid we won’t have time to send someone to Dongting to pass the message, we’ll bury our bodies elsewhere.”

"Your Majesty and Da Sikong said it again," An Shiyi smiled with a slumped face, and the corners of his lips curled up half an arc strangely. "Master Chen is now engaged to Marquis Pingle. This Marquis Pingle has nothing to do since he came back from the Western Regions. He has been idle all day long. This time it is just for him to accompany the two adults to Jiangnan."

When Lan Mei heard this, she was as happy as if she had grasped a life-saving straw. She leaned forward, almost lying on the table, and asked happily, "Is this also written in the imperial decree that His Majesty sent to the Pinglehou Mansion?"

Dark Eleven shook his head. "The imperial decree only stated that Mr. Chen should be demoted to a commoner and leave Beijing immediately."

"Ah, that, that..." Lan Mei still insisted on asking, "You didn't mention a single word to let Pinglehou go with you?"

"Your Majesty told Da Sikong that Marquis Pingle and Master Chen are so close, if Master Chen leaves, there is no need to explain, Marquis Pingle will definitely chase him to Jiangnan."

Dark Eleven turned over and over again, "Your Majesty and Da Sikong said", "Your Majesty and Da Sikong said again", which is like a mouthpiece.If you count on him, you can't count on it.

Lan Mei turned her hopeful eyes to Chen Jingming, and said eagerly, "Master Chen, what do you think about this matter?"

What does he think?

Chen Jingming thought of Hao Chun who rode a Yuhua Cong on the long street a quarter of an hour ago and yelled loudly to go to Pei's mansion to plead guilty to Pei Yuan, with that small appearance, that smirk, and those two small white canine teeth, his heart was full of emotions. Nei snorted coldly.Feeling good?No matter which beautiful boy Pinglehou is with, he has a good relationship!Hugging on the left and hugging on the right, his nominal "Madam" is still hanging in the mansion.

"I'm really not familiar with Pinglehou." Chen Jingming lowered his eyelids and spoke indifferently. "I'm afraid I will disappoint Master Lan."

"Hey, don't be like this!" Lan Mei became even more anxious, grabbed the back of Chen Jingming's hand, and looked at him eagerly: "It doesn't mean that even the rented residence in Chang'an, Mr. Chen, you will return Is it the guy who was sent by the Pinglehou Mansion to move, and the rent was also paid by the Pinglehou Mansion. I heard that the two of you are living together now? Can this be called familiar?"

Lan Mei grasped the back of Chen Jingming's hand, and said earnestly, "Master Chen, we must be kind! My life depends on you and your Lord Marquis!"

The author has something to say:

Chen Jingming: I heard that the area in the south of the Yangtze River is rich in a special product called washboard?

Lanmei: Ah, isn’t it durian?

Dark Eleven: Your Majesty told Da Sikong that you can still kneel down on the wattle.
