I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

Chapter 50
Mrs. Wei sat in Mo Yunxiao's shop with a sad face, looking straight at her best friend opposite.

"One piece of good news, one piece of bad news." Mrs. Wei stared at Mo Yunxiao for a moment, "It's all related to Huan'er, which one do you want to hear first?"

Mo Yunxiao unconsciously leaned forward, opened a pair of piercing eyes, and said urgently: "Anyway, I need to know, let's talk about it together."

Mrs. Wei took a sip from the teacup in front of her, and said slowly, "Huan'er was found, God bless you, she's still in Tokyo, she hasn't been sold elsewhere."

"What about the bad news?" Mo Yunxiao was a little nervous.

Mrs. Wei's complexion darkened, and she said, "The person who bought her is King Jian Zhao Si."

"Zhao Si?" Mo Yunxiao couldn't help covering her mouth and giggling.

"King Jian is the half-brother of the official family. He is extremely honorable." Mrs. Wei ignored Mo Yunxiao's frivolity, and just introduced her: "The first emperor was in his prime when he died, and he had no heirs. Therefore, the throne can only be established in his Choose one of you brothers to sit. In terms of kinship and legal system, King Jian is more suitable."

Mo Yunxiao frowned, and said, "But he is not the one who ascended the throne."

Mrs. Wei nodded and said: "Yes. Because someone deliberately leaked the news to King Duan, he was allowed to go ahead and come to Da Nei one step earlier to pay homage to the late emperor and meet the Queen Mother. When King Jian heard the news, the officials were already there. The main hall saluted King Duan."

"Ah?" Mo Yunxiao scratched her head, and couldn't help sighing: "This King Jian is quite unlucky. But who is the person who leaked the news to King Duan..."

Mrs. Wei also shook her head and sighed, and said: "King Jian has a nickname called 'Flower Dragon'. This person is frivolous and lustful. It is said that every time he goes to someone's house, he will pick one or two good-looking dancers to bring back. "

Speaking of this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Mo Yunxiao, and said, "I'm afraid this Tai Sui is not easy to mess with."

Mo Yunxiao also pondered, she understood Madam Wei's concerns.If I rashly go to the palace to ask for someone, I'm afraid it will set me on fire.

She couldn't help feeling a little timid.But she suddenly thought that although Huan'er's appearance could not be called stunning, she was still a complete beauty.How could she remain innocent when she was trapped in the palace?

What's more, she still has to wait for the return of the person she likes. Although it's far away, she still misses it.If she loses herself to King Jian, how will she face Cheng Yu in the future?
Thinking of this, Mo Yunxiao felt proud.She couldn't care too much anymore, so she blurted out: "But I just want to provoke you."

Her words greatly exceeded Mrs. Wei's expectations.She has never doubted Mo Yunxiao's courage, but she is definitely not a person who shows off her courage.

What's more, since she fell into the water, her wild nature has been restrained a lot, and today she is back to her old ways.

"He Lu, you have to think twice." Mrs. Wei held her hand with concern, and advised, "King Jian is not an official. Mo Rong. If you go to see him, he will become possessive. At that time, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome."

Mo Yunxiao smiled reassuringly, and said, "Yuru, I naturally understand what you mean. But I treat Huan'er just as well as you treat me. She was imprisoned because of me. How can I sit idly by? If one day, my little sister and I are also arrested, Yuru, you will also come to rescue me, right?"

Mrs. Wei was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.

She looked up at her, suddenly broke into a smile, and said: "Good girl, you can be regarded as yourself again. However, if you want to deal with that 'Dragon in Flowers', you can't just be reckless, you have to have a plan. "

Mo Yunxiao stood up, with her hands behind her back, pacing while meditating.After a while, she had made up her mind and whispered to Mrs. Wei.

The more Mrs. Wei heard it, the more surprised she became.She first covered her mouth and sniggered, then she looked puzzled and said to her in a low voice: "No, no, what a decent person."

"Oh, Yuru, listen to me." Mo Yunxiao also said with a smile.

After she finished speaking, Mrs. Wei still looked at her in surprise, and said, "He Lu, your layers of design are really impressive."

Mo Yunxiao sat down again, drank a big sip of tea, and said, "Living in this world, how can you live without any tricks?"

Mrs. Wei nodded heavily, expressing her agreement with her words.

This night, by the Jinming Pond.Mo Yunxiao looked at the rippling lake water glowing with lights, and sat on a rockery.

The weather was still a bit cold, and she also tightened her goose feather coat.It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, giving yourself a quiet little world.But it would be great if this world only belonged to him.How much she wanted to take a walk here alone, feel the moist air and the slightly cold evening breeze, relax thousands of pores, and completely empty her mind.

However, this world does not belong to her alone, or even to her at all.Except for major festivals like the Shangyuan Festival, Jinming Pond is never open to the outside world.The reason why she was able to come here is all due to a "gold medal for crossing the city".

It is said to be a gold medal, but it is actually just a relatively delicate small wooden plaque.Mrs. Wei asked her husband to ask for it from the official Zhao Ji.With a gold medal in hand, except for the Ouchi Imperial Palace, Mo Yunxiao can travel freely in the city of Tokyo.

At this time, she looked at the gold medal carefully. The word "Guocheng" was engraved in standard regular script on the front, and the four characters "given by the royal family" were engraved on the back.

"Oh! The workmanship is also very average." She teased softly.Suddenly, a voice came from behind her: "Compared to Miss Mo's 'thin gold body', the words on the gold medal are naturally nothing more than that."

"Ah!" Mo Yunxiao was terrified.She looked back and saw Zhao Ji standing behind her, and Zhang Di who came with him was carrying a lantern.

Mo Yunxiao sized up the two of them, and said quite dissatisfied: "Why are you walking so silently. This night is going to scare people to death!"

"My lord, she's too..." Zhang Di was about to complain, but Zhao Ji said to Mo Yunxiao first: "We see the girl intoxicated among the lakes and mountains, and we can't bear to disturb her."

"Hmph!" Mo Yunxiao glared at him angrily, and then said, "I only have an appointment with you."

The implication is that Zhang Di shouldn't have come.

"It's unreasonable!" Zhang Di couldn't suppress his anger: "Mo Yunxiao, don't bully people too much!"

Zhao Ji also helped him explain: "Zhang Di and I have been inseparable since childhood. If I come to see the girl alone, he will feel uneasy."

"Anyway, I don't like having a third person present when I'm talking to you." Mo Yunxiao said looking at the lake.

Zhao Ji hesitated for a while, and then said to Zhang Di: "Go and wait for me outside."

"My lord, do you really want to listen to her?" Zhang Di looked aggrieved.

Zhao Ji took the lantern in his hand and said with a smile: "Go, have a drink with the guards outside Jinming Pool, I'll be back soon."

Zhang Di was so angry that his face was red and his ears were red, and he was at a loss.In his heart, there was a hint of jealousy towards Mo Yunxiao, which is unlikely to occur among the opposite sex.

He gave Mo Yunxiao a hard look, and found that the latter was looking at him innocently, which made him even more angry. "Longhoof! Pretending to be flawless!" He cursed in his heart, turned his head and left.

Holding the lantern, Zhao Ji saw that Zhang Di was far away, so he approached Mo Yunxiao quietly, and asked, "Miss Mo asked me to meet you today, why?"

Zhao Ji's eyes were piercing, and there was infinite spring in his eyes.

Mo Yunxiao was a little guilty, avoiding his gaze in embarrassment, and said, "Perhaps, you won't see me again for a long time in the future. Last time I left Zeng's mansion, I didn't tell you, call you I ran a few times in vain. Then I will tell you solemnly this time, and I hope you will not be offended."

After she finished speaking, she hurried away with her head bowed, her face full of shyness.This is not her deliberate gesture, but the most common behavior of a girl.

Zhao Ji was a little puzzled, hurriedly caught up and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to do something very important." Mo Yunxiao said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, and I don't want to involve you in it."

Seeing that she spoke solemnly, Zhao Ji's heart tensed up. He hurriedly reached out and grabbed her wrist, and said, "Is there anything in the world that I can't do? Just tell me that you want to disperse all the wealth in the world. help you too."

Mo Yunxiao looked sideways at him, with a little gratitude in his eyes.

But she still broke free from Zhao Ji's hand, shook her head and smiled wryly: "Mr. Zhao, thank you for your kindness. It's just that many things can't be done with only a passion. Besides, I'm just a country girl, how can I call you So much trouble. If you really want to help me, please help my brothers and sisters a lot during my absence."

"What about you?" Zhao Ji showed a worried expression, and couldn't help taking a step closer and said, "Where should I find you?"

Mo Yunxiao smiled faintly, raised her head and pointed in the direction of the moon, and said, "Look, have you ever heard of Su Dongpo's "Shui Tiao Ge Tou"? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxing and waning. .Some things cannot be forced."

Zhao Ji also smiled slightly, and said: "You know there are two last sentences in this que. I hope you will live a long life and enjoy the beauty of thousands of miles."

Mo Yunxiao's eyes were filled with tears.She had said these words to Song Mingxuan, but the scene at that time was reversed.

Now, when she heard Zhao Ji say the words "I hope people will live together for a long time", she couldn't help but feel moved.But at this moment, Song Mingxuan's face appeared before her eyes again.That delicate yet slightly sad face came to life, making her mood surge once again.

Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Ji thought that her true feelings touched her, so he took a step closer and reached out to shake Mo Yunxiao's hand.But Mo Yunxiao's hands were cold.As soon as Zhao Ji made contact, she hurriedly backed away.

Mo Yunxiao raised her smiling face and said, "Master Zhao, we will see you again. It's just not today."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left.But Zhao Ji was not willing to let it go, and hurriedly chased after him and said, "How can I feel at ease when you leave without knowing why?"

Mo Yunxiao paused, and Zhao Ji was caught off guard and almost bumped into her, so he had to stop quickly.

Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Mo Yunxiao knew that he was really in a hurry, so she said, "It's fine if I tell you, but you can't spoil my business by messing around."

"Okay," Zhao Ji readily agreed.At this moment, he only asked Mo Yunxiao to tell him the whole story, and ignored everything else.

"You have a brother who is called the 'Dragon of Flowers' by people in the Jianghu, right?" Mo Yunxiao asked.

Zhao Ji's face changed slightly.King Jian and him once competed for the throne, and their brotherly relationship has long since disappeared, but at this moment, they can only nod their heads and say, "That's right."

Mo Yunxiao also nodded, and said: "That's it. A few days ago, he happened to pass by our teahouse. After seeing me, he showed a wretched look, saying that he wanted to accept me as the princess."

"There is such a thing?" Zhao Ji's face changed suddenly, and he asked very solemnly: "Is this true?"

"What did I lie to you for?" Mo Yunxiao also replied simply: "I'm afraid you know better about your brother's character than I do."

"Then what do you say?" Zhao Ji asked with great concern.

Mo Yunxiao sighed, and said, "He is a member of the royal family, and I am just a commoner, how can I beat him?"

As she spoke, she turned around and walked slowly.

"Then you...then you..." Zhao Ji also followed behind her, looking at a loss: "You promised him?"

Mo Yunxiao didn't speak, but nodded slightly.

Zhao Ji stayed on the spot, the blood in his whole body seemed to be frozen.

If it was someone else, he would definitely stand in the way, but King Jian couldn't help but be scrupled.Although he took the lead in the competition for the throne, after all, time is still young and his wings are not yet ready.If you break with King Jian because of a woman, I'm afraid there will be a lot of troubles.

However, how could he see the person he loves marrying his younger brother.And this younger brother has a very subtle relationship with him.

Zhao Ji fell into a painful dilemma.His face also became a little distorted due to the excitement.

But Mo Yunxiao paced aside, saying: "I know you have a deep affection for me, but I also know the rift between you and King Jian. I don't want your brothers to turn against each other, do you understand what I mean? ?”

Zhao Ji was silent.For the first time, he felt a heavy sense of powerlessness.

"Oh, what a trick of good fortune." Mo Yunxiao seemed to be adding fuel to the fire: "If God wants me to marry King Jian, why should I know you? I know you, so why should King Jian see you again?" I……"

"Miss Mo!" Zhao Ji called out to her.His voice trembled slightly, obviously trying to suppress his excitement: "I will never hand you over to anyone."

"But you..." Mo Yunxiao showed an anxious expression, leaned over and said, "But you should protect yourself wisely. How can you..."

Zhao Ji gently covered her mouth and said, "I already understand your intentions. There is only one way for the current plan."

"What?" Mo Yunxiao blinked her big eyes and looked at him curiously.

"Let's do the courtesy of Duke Zhou first to accomplish good things. Even though King Jian is lustful, he shouldn't covet other people's wives."

Zhao Ji's words really surprised people. "Ah?" This time it was Mo Yunxiao's turn to be at a loss.

Zhao Ji put the lantern aside and said: "Come here, just tonight when the moon is in the sky, the lake is clear, we use the sky as our quilt and the ground as our mat, and we have the reality of husband and wife, so that others can retreat in spite of difficulties." .Come on!"

He was about to take off his clothes.Mo Yunxiao hurriedly stopped: "Don't, don't, Mr. Zhao, I didn't mean that, don't be so impulsive."

"I'm not impulsive. If I want to see you marrying into Prince Jian's mansion, it would be more uncomfortable than killing me." He reached out to take off Mo Yunxiao's clothes while speaking.

Mo Yunxiao yelled "Ah!", kicked up Zhao Ji's lower abdomen, and kicked him to the ground.

Mo Yunxiao couldn't help but smile, wanted to apologize but was stuttering and unable to speak, so she had to run out regardless of Sanqi 21.

Zhang Di and the guards were drinking and eating roast chicken. Seeing Mo Yunxiao running out in a panic, he couldn't help sneering and said, "You want to enter the palace if you're so careless?"
