2024-10-29 19:42:56"What else do you want, manager?"
Gu Yunxi smiled as she saw the light in Manager Jiao's eyes as if he had wanted to say something but stopped. After exchanging a quick look with Leng Qingtang, she got clear about the following business negotiation.
Manager Jiao bowed again as his features got squeezed together on his face so much that nobody could recognize him,
"Well, please wait up. I've ordered the servants to prepare selected fragrant tea for you two in the private room. I've got a huge good deal to discuss with you."
Gu Yunxi and Leng Qingtang were both observant as they had experienced big scenes.
Seeing the manager's hospitality, Gu Yunxi didn't reject as she smilingly swiveled to Leng Qingtang, saying,
"Darling, anyway, we've sold out all our goods. I don't think we could get through the border controls today. So, why not go to enjoy the selected tea with the manager?"

The night was long and quiet.At this moment, the streets of the capital of Da Yi were horrifyingly quiet with the whirlwind occasionally whistling. The low hissing was more like hidden unknown monsters opening their bloodbaths, making a poignant whimper.It was in the Royal Prison of the Eastern Depot―The bleak moonlight illuminated the courtyard ridges, leaving a few cold white touches of frost.Two cowhide lanterns at the gate were blown by the wind as if two ghosts had been silently watching all the evils of this human purgatory.The bitter wails continued to come out of one side of the cell, which was sometimes high and sometimes faint, forcing people to chill.As another round of torture ended, the guard in the purple eighth-ranked official suit stepped back a dozen steps. Without an expression, he looked directly at the front strong-built man with a steel-toothed iron comb in his hand.

It was dark and cold at night.The cold wind blew in, and the red embroidered curtain fluttered lightly.Gu Yunxi suddenly woke up from her dream, with wet sweat. Facing the night, she was emotional."Darling, what happened...?"Hearing the noise, Leng Qingtang rubbed his sleeping eyes and sat up with clothes. Raising the curtain, he saw the window in the bedroom was open.Getting up and closing the window, he helped Gu Yunxi with hot tea. Then he held her in his chest."What's wrong? do you have a nightmare?"He looked at her with gentle eyes and comforted her in a low voice.Gu Yunxi quietly raised her eyes and looked at Leng Qingtang pathetically.Suddenly, she clasped tightly around his neck and buried in his chest. She murmured,"Darling... Darling..."As she was so dependent on him, Leng Qingtang suddenly showed tender affection

It was in October when maples turned red. In the tree, the mature persimmons were like round lanterns, swaying in the mist and rain.At night, there were plenty of figures and shadows in Qinming Hall. Besides, some mutters could be heard from the slightly opened window lattice."Really? Is she in the western tribes?"Huanan Xin said in a high voice, from which people could slightly feel his delight.Eunuch Superintendent Liang Zhen bowed obediently, as his shadow was dropped on the windows."Your Majesty, there are many small countries in the western tribes. Hence, it always spends some time to make investigations and search for her.""Why investigating? Tell Yue Xilou, searching Udan first. If Yunxi is indeed in the western tribes, she must be hidden by Prime Princess Huanan Qiang."Sounds of the watch drums occurred from the outside. Liang Zhen heard and reminded,"Your Majesty,

It was in Dongzhou Restaurant.The fragrant smell from the two white porcelains with ice cracks quickly fulfilled the whole kitchen.Being tempted by the smell, Manager Jiao leaned forward and stared at the two gourmet meals. In his eyes, some desire and appreciation appeared.He deeply swallowed saliva, staring and ceaselessly praising,"Great! Great! The two meals were not the same as the hot pot. Of course, they were not the same as the hot pot."One cook beside Manager Jiao looked amazed, rubbing his jaw with two fingers and saying in a skeptical voice,"I have been a chef for decades but never seen this kind of unusual way of cooking. So, you casually put some materials in, add a scoop of flavor, and pluck them. Then a meal can be made?"Another cook also nodded,"Yeah, I had been working in Songhe Restaurant of the Central Plains for three years. And I have made over

The wind of early winter blew into the courtyard with a chill, brushed the face of Leng Qingtang, and made his scalp numb.He smiled at the girl outside the door and replied,"Hua'er has just come. Now he and Yunxi go to the business street on the border to buy spices."Huanan Jiyan showed a sharp color in her eyes, and her exquisite face was like a frozen river. She didn’t change her expression for a while.When she calmed down her anger, the girl turned around and left. Behind her was Leng Qingtang's confused voice."What's the matter? You'd better come in and wait for him. They'll be back soon."Huanan Jiyan suddenly stopped. Her head lowered slightly, and her voice was depressed,"Zhu didn't tell me when he came out."His smile suddenly froze. Leng Qingtang didn't know how to answer her for a moment.He felt a slight sense of foreboding.At the

"This is impossible!"Gu Yunxi frowned and stared at the witch with her eyes wide open. She felt so incredible and it made her feel hot with the surprise."Why is it impossible?"The witch's dumb rhetorical voice came from behind the mask, with a sense of righteousness that was inconsistent with her age.The most real facial expressions of her at the moment could not be seen under the mask, but she was obviously unhappy according to her tone of voice.Gu Yunxi looked around anxiously. When she was helpless, she met Lu Qiange's eyes. She looked back at the witch in panic and explained,"Master, my husband is just a civilian. We..."The witch suddenly raised her palm, interrupted Gu Yunxi's words, and insisted,"For more than 40 years, my divination has never been wrong."Her pupils suddenly expanded to the limit.

All the way back, Lu Qiange was discussing countermeasures with Gu Yunxi.Two loyal Udan warriors rode close behind the carriage, always keeping a certain distance from the carriage.Playing with the whip, Lu Qiange asked casually,"The conclusion of blood bond needs the blood of you and Uncle, but you have to hide it from him, so how can you get his blood?"Gu Yunxi sat on the other side of the shaft and looked into the distance for a while. She clenched her lips, thought for a moment, then tilted her head, and replied,"I've been trying to find a way since I came out of the witch's magic hall. At worst, I'll take action when he's asleep.""How could this be possible?" Lu Qiange couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this."According to my Uncle's martial arts and vigilance, even if you stab him with the finest silver needle, he will wake up immediately. What will you do then?"

Lu Qiange abandoned his carriage and then rode a horse and caught up with Huanan Jiyan by the Pingshui River.She was sitting on the cold stone, crying in the cold wind.The snow was flying all over the sky, falling a thin layer on her fine shoulder.Seeing her broken appearance, Lu Qiange's heart was softened and his anger immediately disappeared.From another angle, she was angry and jealous just because she really loved him.The man sighed and walked slowly to the girl. She couldn't wait to jump up, gestured with her hands, and shouted at him."Why did you catch up with me now? If you don't come, I'll jump into the river and drown myself!"Seeing Lu Qiange stunned, she looked embarrassed, glared at him, and hurriedly corrected herself."No, I mean, how did you catch up with me so soon?"With that, she sat down on the stone again and sobbed.Lu Q
