A night of frog sounds, a night of sleepless nights.
Li Chenan got up early as before, practiced boxing and kicking in the yard, practiced the sword for a while, and ran around the lotus pond twice. Zhongli Ruoshui, with long hair draped over his shoulders, and a lazy face.
The girl is like the lotus in the morning, extraordinarily fresh, extraordinarily gorgeous, and extraordinarily attractive.
Zhongli Ruoshui really looked sleepy.
Because... she rarely gets up so early!
She likes to sleep in.
A special love bed.
Winter is because of the cold, but this summer is because of the coolness of the morning.
But today she got up earlier than before, not because she slept well last night, but because Li Chenan lived in the same courtyard with her.
One is in the west building and one is in the east building.
Although there was a wide courtyard, but for some reason, she always felt that Li Chenan was by her side.
She was embarrassed to sleep until the sun was up, after all, Miss Zhongli still hoped that she could leave a better impression in Li Lang's mind.
She thinks too much.
Li Chenan didn't care about these.
But the Zhongli Ruoshui at this moment really left a deep impression on Li Chenan, because he had never seen Zhongli Ruoshui like a lotus emerging from water.
With a smile on his face, his eyes fell on Zhongli Ruoshui.
Zhongli Ruoshui held a wooden comb in his hand, tilted his head to comb his waist-length hair, suddenly blushed, and asked shyly, "Does it look good?"
Li Chenan smiled foolishly.
"So lovely!"
Zhongli Ruoshui glared at him, his fragile skin was like a ripe peach.
"In the future, there will be plenty of time to watch!"
"Well," Li Chenan didn't look away, Zhongli Ruoshui couldn't resist, she didn't dare to look at Li Chenan again, she was still combing her hair, but her heart was sweeter than eating honey.
This is the appearance of a woman who pleases herself, right?
It is of course the best to have a husband-in-law whom one likes, who also likes oneself, and who is attached to one's own.
She didn't know that Li Chenan was comparing this scene with the scene of meeting Wen Xiaowan that morning in the Ningxiang Pavilion - that morning Wen Xiaowan was wearing a tulle and combing her hair.
Wen Xiaowan also asked if such a sentence is good?
He replied nice!
She said it looks good, so you should take a look!
He said save it for later.
Now that Wen Xiaowan's disappearance is still uncertain, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see.
So facing Zhongli Ruoshui, he was really looking more.
If Zhongli Ruoshui knew what was going on in his heart, she might snort and curse at a stinky man!
Sure enough, there is no cat in the world that does not eat fishy food!
But she can't read minds!
So her words are still gentle
"Are you hungry? I'll tell Xueer to ask the kitchen to bring breakfast."
"Not hungry, because the beauty is delicious!"
"...loquacious!"
"By the way, you said last night that you were going to find Mr. Shang, but for composing music?"
Li Chenan shook his head, "Wen Xiaowan, the number one in the Ningxiang Hall, you know that?"
Zhongli Ruoshui was startled, and turned to look at Li Chenan, feeling a little suspicious in his heart, but he didn't ask the question he wanted to ask, "I know."
"She is Brother Shang's maidservant, and she has another identity, she is a secret agent of the Mirror Division."
"Before coming to the capital, the Fish and Dragon Society inspected the whole country and Yang Sixian went to Zhuyu Xiaozhu in Guangling City just to kill Liu Zhuo."
"After that incident, just the day before Yang Sixian was going back to the capital, Wen Xiaowan came to Zhuyu Xiaozhu to look for me. I only found out later that she and Yang Sixian had a sworn feud."
"Yang Sixian must have recognized her, but she chose to fly moths to the flame to assassinate Yang Sixian... I guess she was arrested by Yang Sixian."
"Brother Shang is the venerable of the Imperial City Department, so I thought he should have a way to rescue Wen Xiaowan."
When Zhongli Ruoshui heard this, he actually had more doubts in his heart.
For example, why did Wen Xiaowan go to Zhuo Yu Xiaozhu to find Li Chen'an?
For example, how did Li Chenan know that Wen Xiaowan and Yang Sixian had a sworn feud?
I have been away from Guangling City for three months, and Wen Xiaowan is the oiran of the Ningxiang Pavilion... Did Li Chenan go to that place again?
But as smart as she was, she didn't ask a single question.
Because there is no need to ask.
Also because of his strong self-confidence.
Also because of the trust in Li Chenan.
"So it's like this... Then it's really better to let everyone in Shang handle this matter. After all, the influence of the Imperial City Division is still much stronger than that of Yulonghui."
"I'll go with you after breakfast for a while. Master Shang's home in Kyoto is a bit far from Huaxi Bieyuan."
"good!"
"Wait for me, I'll come out after washing up."
Li Chen'an watched Zhongli Ruoshui go to the east building, then looked away, turned around and went to wash up.
The two had breakfast served by Lin Xueer.
This breakfast is very rich, with a cup of bird's nest soup for each person, I don't know if this is Zhongli Ruoshui's daily life or because I just prepared it for the first time.
"You keep these two jade tokens."
Zhongli Ruoshui took out two white jade plaques from his sleeve pocket and handed them to Li Chenan, Li Chenan took a look, one jade plaque was engraved with the word Juxian, and the other jade plaque was engraved with the word Shuiyun.
"I think you always need to entertain some people during these days in the capital... It's not easy to book a table at Juxian Pavilion. If you make a reservation rashly, you may have to wait for ten or so days."
"But with this jade card, I have left a separate room on the third floor of Juxian Pavilion, and anyone who has this jade card can use it."
"In addition, if you want to invite someone to drink tea, the tea seats in Shuiyunjian are not very easy to book. This brand has the same effect, you can go there anytime."
Li Chen'an immediately looked at Zhongli Ruoshui with admiration, isn't this the supreme treatment in his previous life?
"How many of these two brands have you sent out?"
"It wasn't sent out. One thousand taels of silver was sold for ten each, and the other two were given away. They were all black jade brands. If you go to eat and drink tea, you will have to give another silver!"
"This white jade brand is different. Just these two, they have higher authority than the black jade brand. You don't have to pay for food and tea, because I keep this for myself!"
Li Chenan laughed, but he was not as polite as Zhongli Ruoshui. He put the two signs in his arms, "Don't say it, I really want to invite some people to drink tea and eat."
"Then let's go see Brother Shang and see if we can go to your Juxian Pavilion at noon or at night?"
"Okay, it just so happens that you also appreciate the craftsmanship of the imperial chef."
After breakfast and tidying up, Zhongli Ruoshui brought Jian Wu and was about to go out with Li Chenan, but unexpectedly the porter outside brought a young man.
This boy is carrying a knife!
He looks like a knife!
His figure is slender and he stands upright.
His face was cut like a knife, and his face was still cold and expressionless.
His brows are like a blade's edge and his eyes have a blade's glow... Standing in front of Li Chenan, Li Chenan felt a little dazzling!
Li Chenan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The young man also looked at Li Chen'an carefully, and then he spit out a sentence
"I'm Amu! Are you Li Chen'an?"
Yesterday Zhongli Ruoshui asked Zhongli Ruoyu for someone to protect her, and that person's name was Amu.
"I am Li Chenan."
Amu looked over Li Chenan's shoulder at the sword on his back.
"This sword is very good!"
"From now on, I will follow you. If I am not dead, you will not die! Until you leave Kyoto!"
"If I die... you find someone to collect the body for you!"
"Besides, don't bother me with other crap except someone killing you!"
