I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

Mo Yunxiao looked at Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji always had a smile on his face, but he didn't say a word for a long time.

She couldn't see through his heart, so she gradually became anxious.

"Speak, why do you always look at me like this." Mo Yunxiao finally couldn't help but speak first.

Zhao Ji walked two steps to a wicker chair, brushed the dust off the chair with his wide sleeves, and sat down slowly.

He still looked at Mo Yunxiao with extremely gentle eyes, which gave people a faint warmth like the sun in winter.

Mo Yunxiao also looked at him, as if caught by his gaze, like a vortex sucking her in without mercy, like a black hole absorbing all matter including light Come in.

However, Mo Yunxiao will never settle down like this.She took a step forward hard, breaking the silence that had lasted for a while.

"Official, you should make a decision." Her lips trembled slightly as she spoke.

Zhao Ji pondered for a while, and finally said: "He Lu, will you follow me into the palace tonight?"

"Huh?" Mo Yunxiao was taken aback.She didn't expect Zhao Ji to say this, and a strong sense of humiliation hit her heart.

"Officials, please be more solemn." Mo Yunxiao blushed, obviously trying to suppress her anger: "As an official, you should take the world as your responsibility."

"Follow me into the palace tonight." Zhao Ji still repeated these words, with the smile on his face undiminished.

Mo Yunxiao was really a little annoyed.Thousands of anger burst out of his heart, igniting the pupils of both eyes.

She gave him a hard look, and said: "Zhang Dun's words are indeed correct. The official's house sits down, and the civilian girl will stay with me."

After speaking, she strode towards the door.Zhao Ji finally got up and grabbed Mo Yunxiao's wrist.

Mo Yunxiao turned her head and still gave him a hard look, saying, "What do the officials want?"

Zhao Ji let go of her hand, but asked back, "Which Zhang Dun said is correct?"

Mo Yunxiao glanced at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and said, "King Duan is frivolous, he can't rule the world."

"Hahaha..." Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing.He smiled brightly, as if he was happy.

But Mo Yunxiao was even more annoyed, and asked sternly, "What's so ridiculous?"

Zhao Ji gradually put away his smile and said, "Tonight, you enter the palace with me."

Mo Yunxiao's pupils dilated, and he really wanted to punch this guy hard on the head.

But before she had an attack, Zhao Ji grabbed her hand again. "What are you doing?" She was taken aback and was about to withdraw her hand.

But Zhao Ji rushed to say: "You follow me into the palace tonight, you will understand everything."

Mo Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat, she looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Is there anything I can't say here?"

Zhao Ji shook his head and said, "Some things, you have to see them before you can make a decision."

Zhao Ji looked at her deeply, she was always a little uneasy.Mo Yunxiao's eyes flickered a little, and she didn't dare to look directly into his eyes.

"You dare to break into Prince Jian's Mansion, you dare to go to Ghost Fan Tower, why are you so hesitant to patrol my home?" Zhao Ji asked with a smile.

Mo Yunxiao also smiled wryly, and said, "Your home is the imperial palace."

Zhao Ji let go of Mo Yunxiao's hand, and walked to the window alone.He looked into the distance, and the sounds of hawkers and crowds in the market echoed in his ears.

"Da Nei is cold and desolate, not as prosperous as this world." Zhao Ji sighed.

At this moment, Mo Yunxiao suddenly felt that his back was so lonely and desolate.Unknowingly, she also developed a sense of sympathy for each other.

She also moved her steps, came to Zhao Ji's side, and said: "Yes, the world is prosperous, but there is only one person left in the cold."

"However, without my indifference, where would the prosperity of the people in the world come from?" Zhao Ji turned his head and said to Mo Yunxiao, "The same is true of the prosperity of Minglou."

Mo Yunxiao hurriedly averted her eyes and said, "I am a grassroots citizen, and I dare not compare myself with officials."

"But there has never been a grassroots person who can enter the palace." Zhao Ji smiled frivolously.

Mo Yunxiao immediately said seriously: "I haven't promised you yet."

"Didn't you ask me about the Cao Gang and the Beggar Gang?" Zhao Ji paused and said, "Follow me into the palace tonight."

"It's ridiculous." Mo Yunxiao walked towards the door quickly, but this time Zhao Ji didn't stop her, just watched her silently.

She walked to the door but stopped again.She couldn't hold back her enthusiasm, turned around and asked, "How can I get in?"

Zhao Ji smiled.He came over and said, "At the beginning of the day tonight, I'll ask Zhang Di to pick you up."

"I'm just... as you think." Mo Yunxiao looked at him and smiled knowingly: "I want to see what kind of medicine you sell in your gourd."

Zhao Ji nodded and said, "In this case, you and I have agreed to wait for Zhang Di to come tonight."

"You are not allowed to let me go." Mo Yunxiao regretted it as soon as she said this.

Sure enough, Zhao Ji became puzzled and couldn't help asking: "Why should I let the pigeons go?"

Mo Yunxiao hurriedly explained: "I mean, keep your word, you can't tell me to wait in vain."

"That's natural." Zhao Ji said: "That night in Prince Jian's Mansion, I told you that I would bring you into the palace to discuss poetry and painting. Once a gentleman says something, he will whip the horse fast. I will definitely do what I say."

After he finished speaking, he opened the door and went out, leaving Mo Yunxiao alone in a daze.

Her heart is still surging and excited. The imperial palace of the Northern Song Dynasty has long been destroyed by the flames of war. She never thought that she could walk into the magnificent palace complex more than 1000 years ago, which is also a wonderful thing for a Chinese painting painter.

She suddenly found that as long as she broke free from the prejudice against Zhao Ji, the joy in her heart would overflow uncontrollably.

And Zhao Ji, to her, is like a very thick book, or a difficult lantern riddle.She wanted to understand him completely and see through him, but there was always an obstacle blocking her.

Entering the palace quietly this time may be a good opportunity to get to know him.Mo Yunxiao thought so.

That night, Mo Yunxiao couldn't count how many yawns she yawned.Her dark circles were already heavy, but she still sat in front of the lobby with her chin resting on her hands.

The sound of clappers outside the gate sounded again, and the shadow of the watchman moved slowly on the gate, like the effect of a shadow play.

"Huan'er, what time is it?" Mo Yunxiao asked energetically.

Huan'er, who had fallen asleep at the desk, was startled suddenly, sat up and rubbed his eyes, then looked at the copper leak next to the account room, and said, "It's Haishi."

Mo Yunxiao nodded and said, "It's time to come."

Huan'er was a little puzzled and asked, "Who should come?"

"You'll know when it comes later." Mo Yunxiao couldn't help but yawned again.

She looked at the wick of the kerosene lamp that was about to burn out in front of her, and said, "This lamp is too dim, go and replace it with a brighter one."

"Oh, yes." Huan'er also yawned as she headed towards the inner house.

Not long after she left, a slightly short figure appeared at the gate.This figure has a deer head and mouse eyes, and it seems to be looking inside.Mo Yunxiao knew it was Zhang Di, so she deliberately played tricks on him.

Zhang Di held up a lantern to take a look, knocked on the door softly, and called out: "Mo Yunxiao, Mo Yunxiao..." There was no movement for a long time, he thought about it carefully, and said to himself: "Could it be sleep? Then no matter how old I am Call the door."

"Mo Yunxiao! Ouch..." He just yelled, the door suddenly opened, and the door frame hit his forehead heavily.His head hurt and the lantern fell to the ground.

Mo Yunxiao secretly laughed, but pretended not to know, and hurriedly asked: "Yo! It's Zhang Neiguan, who offended you, didn't he hurt you?"

Zhang Di snorted and said, "Mo Yunxiao, don't pretend to be confused, you bumped into me on purpose, didn't you?"

With her hands behind her hands, Mo Yunxiao pretended to be innocent, and said with a suppressed smile, "No."

"You still haven't told the truth!" Zhang Di became even more angry: "You are so rude, how can I take you into the palace!"

Mo Yunxiao glanced at him and said, "Mr. Zhang, the official wanted you to take me into the palace. Do you want to resist the order?"

"You..." Zhang Di said angrily, "Don't use the official family to suppress me. I grew up with the official family, and our friendship is always deeper than your friendship."

Mo Yunxiao couldn't help laughing out loud, and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you ask the official to make you a concubine! Hahaha..."

Zhang Di was a little embarrassed.He hurriedly looked around and saw no one around, so he dragged Mo Yunxiao into the tea house.

"Let's gossip, you can change into this suit." Zhang Di didn't look at her, and put a package he was carrying on the table.

"Oh? What kind of clothes are these?" Mo Yunxiao opened the package layer by layer curiously, and said while opening, "Could it be the clothes of the little palace maid?"

Zhang Di just stood aside and didn't speak, like an angry child.

When she fully opened the package, she picked up the dress and frowned again.

Because she couldn't see what kind of professional clothes it was.A navy blue coat and hat suit.She had seen Zhang Di wearing "work clothes", but that was definitely not the suit she was holding.And if it was worn by a court lady, it doesn't look like it.

"Hey! Who is this wearing?" Mo Yunxiao asked.

Zhang Di glared at her and said, "This is Jing Jun's clothes."

"Forbidden Army?"

"No, it's Jing Jun." Zhang Di turned his face to look at her who was still confused, and explained: "It's the folk Ye Xianglang. Do you understand?"

"Ye Xianglang?" Mo Yunxiao was taken aback, quickly threw the clothes on the ground, and said, "Isn't that the one who picks... picks... picks shit?"

Zhang Di chuckled and said, "That's right, the person who picks up dung for Da Nei is called Jing Jun."

Mo Yunxiao gasped, turned around a few times, and said, "How unreasonable! How could you treat me like this?"

"Yes, Mrs. Mo has a beautiful face, and the officials are indeed suspected of being an abrupt beauty." Zhang Di said mockingly: "However, if you want to sneak into this heavily guarded palace, you have to pretend to be a clean army. Besides, there is no other way."

Mo Yunxiao turned her head, looked at him viciously, and said, "Zhang Di, you are avenging yourself!"

Zhang Di was also a little flustered, and said, "How can I! Telling you to pretend to be Ye Xianglang is what the officials mean, and I can't interfere."

Mo Yunxiao suppressed the anger in her heart, stomped on the clothes a few times, and said in a disgusted tone: "No matter what, I won't wear the clothes worn by those stinky men, it's really... really dirty." gone."

"Don't worry, Mrs. Mo." Zhang Di said unhurriedly: "Although these are the clothes worn by the Jingjun, the suit I brought is new and no one has worn it. Moreover, the official The family also felt guilty, so they specially asked someone to wash it three times, and then smoked it with incense for half an hour. Madam Mo can smell it if she doesn't believe it, but does it have a strange smell?"

Mo Yunxiao dubiously picked up the clothes and dusted them, then sniffed them close to her nose, and there was indeed a faint fragrance of chrysanthemums.

While yawning, Zhang Di said, "The palace is an unusual place. Mrs. Mo definitely doesn't want to be honest, so it's better to be careful in everything."

Mo Yunxiao thought about it for the same reason, and said, "Then I'm going to change clothes." Zhang Di nodded impatiently.

She took her underwear and went to a cubicle, changed after a while and came out, still a little embarrassed standing in front of Zhang Di.

She smiled shyly and asked, "Is it still suitable?"

"Well, that's it." After Zhang Di finished speaking, he threw the little hat to her and said, "Take it, and follow me."

"Wait." Mo Yunxiao came to the account room and said, "I left without a word, and I have to explain to my family."

So she picked up a pen and wrote on the blank account book: "I am going to do business today, and I don't need everyone to accompany me. It's just for one night, and I will return tomorrow. Don't worry about it."

After finishing writing, she tore off this page of paper, placed it in front of the table where she was sitting just now, and then pressed it with a tea bowl, and then said with confidence: "Let's go."

As soon as the two of them left, Huan'er came out holding a brighter lamp and said, "Girl, we just brought the store back, and many things are missing. I found a big one for the wick and lamp oil." effort……"

She raised her head to have a look, where was Mo Yunxiao's figure?
Mo Yunxiao looked at the high wall while walking.This high wall separates the inside from the folk.The powerful footsteps of the guards patrolling inside the wall reached Mo Yunxiao's ears very clearly.

"Officer Zhang, where are we going?" Mo Yunxiao leaned forward and asked.

"Donghua Gate." Zhang Di replied coldly.

"Isn't Xuande Gate closer?"

Zhang Di stopped walking, looked sideways at her, and said, "Yes, Xuandemen is closer. But the dung trucks don't go through Xuandemen."

Mo Yunxiao was stunned, and a bad premonition rose in her heart.She caught up with Zhang Di who was walking in front, and said, "Could you let me push the dung truck in?"

"Other than that, there is no other way." Zhang Di replied.

"I don't push it, it's too dirty and smelly."

"Other than that, there is no other way." Zhang Di still raised his head and said very arrogantly.

In this dark night, the armor of the man holding the halberd in front of Donghua Gate reflected the cold brilliance under the moonlight.

Instead of going that way, however, they went in the opposite direction.After walking for a short time, the little lights from a thatched hut were already faintly visible.
