Fengjing West Street is adjacent to the only way for most officials to go to court, so business has always been very good.

Most of the streets are shops selling food, especially some convenient food.

Those nobles still have to wait for a long time before they go to court, and those who have not prepared breakfast at home can settle it here.

Recently, a new breakfast shop opened on West Street, and the owner is a pretty little girl.

She always wears a pear flower hairpin to hold her black hair, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and she has two dimples when she smiles.

But this is not important in Feng Jing, who is full of beauties, what is important is that she makes good buns.

Her buns have thin skins and big fillings, and there are many patterns.In addition to the common meat stuffing, she also packs sweet bean paste, refreshing mushroom and green vegetables, and milky yellow stuffing that has never been seen before but is rich in milk.

Ordinary buns are fine, she also makes small steamed buns that can be eaten one bite at a time, and soup dumplings wrapped in hot and delicious soup.

And from time to time, they provide ham and salted egg yolk-flavored siu mai, plus pancakes that look novel but taste good.

Officials who have long been tired of eating the original shops on the street have sent people to buy fresh ones here, especially custard buns and pancakes.

The proprietress of this house is Xie Niannian who came to find someone.

Originally, I came to visit Zhou Ci, but all the invitations were handed in, but I was told that Zhou Ci and his old friend went to the mountains to collect scenery, and they would come back in a month.

Xie Niannian wants to cry but has no tears, these literati like to run around anyway.

There is no way, you can't go back, you can only wait, but waiting is very boring.

Opening a shop was a familiar thing, so Xie Niannian, who had nothing to do, simply rented another shop and sold breakfast on West Street where dignitaries gathered.

The rent is staggeringly high, and even the current Xie Niannian feels a bit heartbroken when he pays for it.

But at the same time, her price, which has won Chi Qing's true inheritance, is not acceptable to ordinary people, but it is still acceptable to rich people.

Xie Niannian has the final say, if he can stay here for a longer period of time, he can even earn back his original income.

But her original intention was to find someone, thinking that if she was buying something, she would run into Chi Qing.

There is also a problem with going to the shop early, that is, getting up before dawn to prepare food for the day, so Xie Niannian has not been able to sleep well recently.

Xie Niannian, who had sold out the steamed stuffed buns early that day, was about to call it a day and go back to catch up on sleep, when he saw a handsome man approaching and looked around at the little food left in front of him: "Ma'am, do you have steamed buns?"

"Yes, but it's cold now, so it might not be that delicious." Xie Niannian replied honestly.

The man waved his hand and didn't care: "It's okay, come one, I'm starving to death."

Xie Niannian wrapped one in oiled paper and handed it to him.He took it with both hands, first casually took a bite, and then his eyes widened in surprise.

Xie Niannian just watched the seven-foot man in front of him, his eyes turned red after taking a bite of cold steamed buns, as if he was about to cry or not.It seems that what you eat is not steamed buns, but some nostalgic hometown dishes.

"This taste is exactly the same as what I ate on the road." The man couldn't control his tone, and there was a trembling voice.

Xie Niannian with question marks all over his head: I made steamed buns, right?

He suppressed his expression, wolfed down the steamed buns, thanked Niannian a little embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Sorry, I made the girl laugh. Do you have any more? Please come to ten more."

More small question marks Xie Niannian: Why does this appetite seem familiar.

Leaving aside what was on his mind, Xie Niannian replied, "Yes, wait." After speaking, he started packing for him.

"Is the girl new here? Feng Jing has never seen your craftsmanship before." The man waiting next to him chatted very familiarly.

Xie Niannian kept moving his hands: "Yes, come here to find someone."

"Looking for someone?" The man suddenly became interested: "Miss, is it convenient for you to tell me, I am quite familiar with this Fengjing."

Xie Niannian thought to himself, at the foot of Emperor Fengjing, if a plaque falls on the street and hits anyone casually, he may be a fourth-rank official, maybe he really knows?

So Xie Niannian hesitated for a while, and asked with some uncertainty: "Is there a very good-looking woman in the court?"

The man smiled and said: "Your Majesty appoints people on merit, regardless of gender. There are too many good-looking women who have a place in the court. Do you have any other clues?"

"Well, she is quite tall, she may not be very talkative, and she usually has no expression."

Xie Niannian began to think carefully with his fingers, and was a little annoyed that he couldn't draw a picture: "Kungfu should be pretty good."

She didn't say her name, after all, this is Fengjing, where the dark tide is raging, and the person in front of her is just a stranger who met by chance.

Xie Niannian quickly wrapped the steamed bun and handed it to him, but saw the man in front of him with a smile on his face.

He seemed to have thought of something frightening, with a dementia visible to the naked eye on his face.

"Young master?" Xie Niannian reminded.

The man regained his senses, twitched the corners of his mouth, and took the package full of steamed buns: "Sorry, it's still a bit broad."

She shook her head, indicating that she didn't care, and then watched the man turn around stiffly and walk away.

When he left, he said to himself: "How could I have such an idea? Isn't this impossible?"

There are so many strange people in Fengjing.Xie Niannian sighed, and continued to close the booth and prepare to go back to catch up on sleep.

But he didn't know that the man was holding the steamed bun, turned around and walked into a dark alley, and bumped his elbow against the bricks and stones on the wall.

After the tooth-piercing sound of gears colliding, a gap was opened at the end of the path that was clearly a dead end, just enough for one person to pass through.

Behind the wall is a secluded small courtyard. As soon as he managed to squeeze in, he saw Bai Yan sitting carelessly on a wicker chair, raising his feet to greet him: "Nineteen, eating steamed buns again? I said that after you came back from Cangzhou Why are you staring at the steamed bun?"

Before he had time to answer, Bai Yan jumped up, swayed to his side, took a steamed bun and ate it unceremoniously, and said vaguely: "It's not bad, where did you buy it?"

"There's a new breakfast shop on West Street, and the proprietress seems to be asking about people in the imperial court."

"Heh." Bai Yan finished eating the steamed buns in two or three bites: "Who are you looking for, male or female?"

The man called Nineteen took the package of steamed buns away, and stretched out his hand again for fear of being bored: "A beautiful girl who doesn't talk much and is good at kung fu."

After Bai Yan listened to it, an inexplicable smile opened on the corner of his mouth: "It's kind of interesting, just listening to this description is right with Chi Qing."

Nineteen didn't understand why: "There are quite a lot of people like this in the court, how can they have anything to do with the boss."

"What do you know, the lady boss cooks delicious food." Bai Yan took another steamed bun while Nineteen was not paying attention, and put it in his mouth: "I have to go and see." After finishing speaking, he left.

Bai Yan moved extremely fast, and arrived at West Street in a short while, just in time to see a yawning figure walking down the road.

She was wearing a goose yellow dress, graceful and graceful, which complemented Fengjing's deciduous sycamores.

But what attracted Bai Yan's eyes was the exquisitely crafted pear flower hairpin in her bun. The appearance of the pear blossoms about to bloom was unique.

Can this be unfamiliar? Chi Qing's drawing, he personally asked the craftsman to watch over it, so it can't be more familiar.

This morning, the identity of the proprietress of the shop was about to be revealed, and Bai Yan's whole body was refreshed. The exhaustion of the past few days was swept away, and he wished to find someone to share this big gossip right away.

He stepped into Tianshu Division with a smile that he couldn't hold back, ignoring the colleagues around him who looked at him strangely.

After going through several winding corridors, Bai Yan caught an acquaintance in a remote small garden.

A small figure is sitting by a carp pond, throwing fish feed into the pond.

Her palm-sized face was reflected in the water, her round almond eyes narrowed impatiently, making her look small and fierce.

"Little Folding Shadow!" Bai Yan walked forward with a grin, and received a slap in the face without any surprise.

He glanced into the fish pond, and the lively carp were vying for the fish food on the water surface, and each carp was fattened up.

The fish here are always being fed by overlapping shadows.

"Why aren't you happy?" After watching the fish, he went to the superimposed shadows.

The little girl seemed a little annoyed, and her tone was sullen: "Master has been in a bad mood recently, and she hasn't been out of Tianshu Division for several days."

"She doesn't like to go out all the time." Bai Ye replied casually: "The recent case is a bit tricky, and there is a key clue missing."

Die Ying retorted with a puffy face: "There were troublesome things before, but this time it's different. I can't explain it clearly, but it's different."

"You want Chi Qing to be happy?" Bai Yan laughed mischievously, suddenly changing his original thoughts.

"I'll tell you." He pretended to be deep and said, "The lady proprietress of the newly opened breakfast shop on West Street is a very important person. If you bring that girl to Chi Qing, she must be happy!"

"Important people?" She repeated subconsciously.

Bai Yan patted Duoying's shoulder, letting the little girl think for herself.

He was going to sneak to Chi Qing's study to watch the fun when he was free, he couldn't guess what Chi Qing's expression would be when he saw Xie Nian Nian.How interesting.

But he never expected that the kid's way of thinking is different from that of normal girls.

Growing up in the Tianshu Division, she was most exposed to martial arts and matters related to various cases.

Naturally, he couldn't understand what the "important person" in Bai Yan's mouth actually meant.

From a normal point of view, the important thing about this person probably lies in the facts of the case, presumably it is the witness.Dioying thought with a straight face, then the next step is to take her to see the master.

------

In autumn, the weather cools down.The cool wind blows into the room through the window, which is refreshing and pleasant.

Xie Niannian was sleeping soundly under the thin quilt. She hugged the pillow and curled herself up into a ball, enjoying the rare leisure.

Then he was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

She buried her head in the quilt, trying to be an ostrich, but the knocking on the door kept coming.

Xie Niannian got up abruptly, took a deep breath, took the pear hairpin and pulled up his long hair casually.Then put on clothes and shoes, ready to solve this annoying noise.

"Who is it?" she asked sleepily.

Soon there was a response from outside the door: "Tianshu Division investigates the case."

Like a basin of cold water being poured from head to toe, Xie Niannian suddenly woke up.At the same time, he began to doubt his life, why would Tianshu find him?

She quickly thought about what she had done since she came to Fengjing, and she didn't know what she could find out.

In the end, she forcibly suppressed the anxiety in her heart and opened the door.

In the eyes, there was a girl half shorter than Xie Niannian, with a long sword half her height behind her back.She is obviously cute, but at the moment she has a serious face, like a little adult.

Isn't this the little girl who chased people with a sword in the street that day?

Thinking of how respectful the group of yamen servants were to her, Xie Niannian guessed that this person looked young, but his status in Tianshu Division might not be low.

According to the description in the book, Tianshusi beat people in the street when he disagreed with him, arrested them and sent them to prison, and received a bad reputation.For the sake of his own life, Xie Niannian felt that it was better not to struggle too much.

"Why is your lord looking for me?" Xie Niannian thought he'd better ask quickly, she hasn't had enough sleep yet.

But I didn't want to, the little girl in front of me stared at her for a moment: "Come with me."

"Huh?" Xie Niannian looked confused: "Where are you going? Don't you ask here?"

"Go to see our director." She replied quickly, and frowned at the same time, seeming a little impatient.

Folded Shadow is also very puzzled, this person does not seem to be special, could it be that Bai Yan is hiding something from himself.

But Xie Niannian was even more horrified. Director of Tianshu Division, isn't that the scheming and affectionate second female - Gu Chen? ?
