A Sword of Frost

Chapter 38: Slightly drunk in spring

Views:

Ji Yanran didn't go far, he went to the official station in Wangxing City. A few days ago, the guards sent to Dinghai City brought back news that the miracle doctor Guici seemed to have left the South China Sea's Lost Wandering Island long ago. As for where he went, it has not yet been found out.

"We met several groups of people at the pier. They were all wealthy families who had gone to sea to seek medical treatment but failed. Some of them had lived on the island for two full months and had never seen a miracle doctor." The subordinate said, "Commander Wang has already gone to the sea to seek medical treatment. I plan to go to sea, see if I can try my luck, and I am afraid of delaying things, so I ordered me to report back to the prince first."

Ji Yanran was displeased: "Then the genius doctor is often not at home?"

"Not often, according to the rules, patients have to go to the island in person." The subordinate said, "However, the owner of the dock there also said that if there is really a wealthy family who can afford a shocking price, it is not unprecedented for a genius doctor to go to sea for medical treatment."

"Go and find out where he is now, and report him as soon as there is news." Ji Yanran ordered, "Also, no matter what method you use, please bring him back to me as soon as possible!"

The lights were flourishing, and Yun Yifeng walked through the long street alone, looking east and west for a stroll, very leisurely.

Instead of lying on the bed in the inn and waiting for Lao Zhang to deliver a meal every half an hour, it is better to come out to get some air. It was already very late at night, and most of the restaurants and restaurants were closed, only the small stalls on the side of the road were still doing business. He stopped and looked carefully one by one. There were noodles, fried rice, dumplings, and white and tender glutinous rice cakes with red bean paste. , was made into the shape of a bunny, with two red eyes on it, very chubby and cute.

Ji Yanran asked behind him: "Want to eat?"

Before Yun Yifeng could turn around, the proprietress had already wrapped one in a clean lotus leaf, and handed it over with a smile on her face: "Master, try it, I'm going to close the stall now, no money."

Ji Yanran: "..."

It was a good gift for her, and the aunt who sold red bean soup next to her also hurriedly served two bowls of sweet soup, as well as those who sold meat buns, fried dumplings, taro cakes, and even those who turned sugar. He stuffed the biggest phoenix in his hand. If Ji Yan hadn't come and forcibly dragged him away, I'm afraid he could still earn two more bowls of oily fermented bean curd and buckwheat.

There was silence in the small alley, Yun Yifeng handed him the sugar figurine, and said generously, "Please."

Ji Yanran ordered: "From now on, no one is allowed to go out on the street."

"This time it's thanks to the prince." Seeing that he didn't want it, Yun Yifeng ate the chewing gum by himself, but felt that it was too rough and sweet, so he frowned and said, "Who is there among the people in Wangxing City who don't like it?" Knowing His Royal Highness Xiao Wang, I am your friend, and I have been staring at the sugar cake for a long time, of course the stall owner wants me to eat it for free... Hiss, toothache."

"How can this stuff be really edible? You just throw it away after licking it twice, or go home and stick it on the table to continue playing the next day." Ji Yanran threw the sugar figurine to the side of the road for him, dumbfounding, "You bite the candy crumbs If you splash, you will naturally have a toothache."

"So you can't eat it?" Yun Yifeng thought for a long time in doubt, then pouted again, "I didn't see it when I was a child, and I never bought it when I grew up. This is the first time I have tasted it."

Ji Yanran was taken aback when he heard it, and then remembered what he had told Lao Wu about his life experience - when he was still in his infancy, his parents were killed by bandits, and then he was picked up by a lunatic... He probably didn't have a good life for a few days, I'm afraid If you can't even eat enough, how can there be sugar people to play with

"Ah!" A gust of night wind blew, and Yun Yifeng sneezed in front of him. Even though His Royal Highness Xiao Wang dug out a cabinet of light yellow and willow green, he still only wore a plain white gauze when he went out. On the cloak, only the bright moonlight falls on the shoulders. On this cold spring night, the back looks extraordinarily thin and slender.

Ji Yanran took two quick steps, and gently held his wrist: "Go, let's go back to the residence."

Inside the inn, Lao Zhang was taking inventory and entering the account, and planned to go to bed after cleaning up, but before he could yawn halfway, Xiaoer knocked on the door, saying that His Royal Highness Xiao Wang had returned with Master Yunmen, and both of them hadn’t eaten yet. I think the stalls on the street are too greasy, so I want to order a few refreshing seasonal spring dishes.

Yun Yi calmly said, "It's the prince who thinks it's greasy, I think the fermented bean curd with meat is quite good."

"Clothes are worn regardless of spring and summer, and food should be in accordance with the season." Ji Yanran smiled, and took another jar of wine from the room, "This is what Lao Wu bought when he went to the street, and it is only available in spring. Flower brew, the taste is very sweet, you should like it."

Toon sprouts, Artemisia persicae, spring bamboo shoots and shepherd's purse are placed on the table green and green, and they are the most common delicacies in people's homes during this season. The wine is indeed very sweet, not as mellow and lingering as the famous and expensive wines, and even the aftertaste is light, like a ray of flower fragrance blown by the breeze, you have to close your eyes and experience it carefully to appreciate the beauty of this full cup of spring.

Ji Yanran asked, "Do you like it?"

"I like it." Yun Yifeng put down his empty wine glass, "With the meal my lord has today, I will pay more attention to the change of seasons in the future."

Ji Yanran filled it up for him again.

Yun Yifeng raised his head and drank it down again. He has a slender neck, and his collar is slightly open, exposing a small piece of skin, which is fair and delicate, like a jade carving.

Ji Yanran reached out habitually, wanting to straighten his clothes, but for some reason, in the end she just rubbed lightly on his chin.

"Will this wine make you drunk?"

"Alcohol can make you drunk." Ji Yanran clinked glasses with him, "If you are drunk, it would be a good thing to sleep in the spring scenery of the city."

When he said this, the window was full of winter jasmine flowers one after another. Although they were petite but warm and vigorous, the city was full of spring, and the city was full of spring. Yun Yifeng supported his head with one hand, and handed the glass cup to him. Lazy: "Yeah."

Candles danced on the table, and there were two figures on the wall.

After drinking the last cup, Yun Yifeng was also completely drunk in the wind, rain and dew, groggy and not knowing where to go.

Ji Yanran picked him up horizontally and sent him all the way back to the room.

Even the moonlight is gentle.

next morning.

Wrapped in a thick quilt, Yun Yifeng listened carefully to the noise outside the door. The entire inn was taken over by Lin Ying, so naturally no outsiders would come in and out. With such a commotion early in the morning, could it be that... something happened again? He was a little puzzled, stepped on the soft shoes and got out of bed. After hastily washing up, he wanted to go out to have a look, but he was startled when he opened the door.

There were at least twenty people standing in the corridor, some were holding clothes, some were carrying tape measure and scissors for sewing, and some were carefully registering, they were extremely busy. Lao Wu also struggled to squeeze through the crowd, and greeted the three bosses at the front to bring in the ready-made clothes, and said enthusiastically, "The owner of the shop will try it first, and if it doesn't fit, he can change it immediately."

Yun Yifeng took a step back, calmly said: "No need."

"The owner of the door makes up for it first. If you really don't like it, then you can make a new one when you return to Wangcheng." Old Wu was so busy that he was sweating, "There are eighteen more, I have to keep an eye on them, and the owner slowly Try, come to me anytime if you have any questions."

Yun Yifeng: "..."

Wangxing City is a prosperous and important town, so there are naturally many garment shops, and this business is His Royal Highness Xiao Wang's business, so it has to be done with care. Therefore, the boss of each store personally brought the tailor to deliver, choosing the most expensive materials and the most novel styles. You pushed me and you pushed you, and the noise and tossing continued until noon before they reluctantly dispersed. Yun Yifeng stood by the table, the bed cabinet was full of new clothes, it was said that this was only a small half, and the other half was placed in the two empty rooms opposite the door, without even a place to stay.

"Are you awake?" The culprit knocked on the door, "Come out for dinner, and then go to Shiba Villa."

Yun Yifeng wanted to look for old clothes in the cabinet, but only turned it over twice, and the watery brocade slid down in a mess. Seeing that it was about to fall to the floor again, he had to quickly stuff it back, and randomly picked a new one on the bed. Yes, open the door after getting dressed: "You—"

Before she finished speaking, Ji Yanran took his hand and asked someone to walk around in front of her. Looking at the elegant and handsome man with black hair and white clothes, she said with satisfaction: "Not bad."

Yun Yifeng: "..."

"Why are there so many piles?" Ji Yanran glanced into his room again, "Ask someone to clean it up in the afternoon, and keep a few sets I like... No, you like the ones, put the rest on the opposite side first."

Yun Yifeng asked: "Is the prince interested in taking care of the clothing store business?"

Ji Yanran raised her eyebrows: "If you don't want to dress properly again, I can take care of them and turn them into wealthy businessmen."

Yun Yifeng was too lazy to talk to him, so he withdrew his arm: "How is Xu Qiuping?"

"I have been staying in the house honestly." Ji Yanran said, "Miss Xing'er came back in the morning and said that he didn't even read the account book except for visiting Mrs. Xu, and distributed all the things to the servants. Woke up quite frightened."

"Five nursery rhymes have come true and four have been fulfilled. He is the last one, so he will naturally be terrified." Yun Yifeng said, "Besides, among the five brothers of the Xu family, only Xu Qiuwang and Xu Qiuyi have been proven guilty. It's hard to say if an innocent victim deserves what he deserves, and it's hard to say whether Xu Qiuping has done anything wrong."

Ji Yanran asked: "What didn't Fengyumen find out?"

"I only found various charitable deeds in Shiba Villa in recent years." Yun Yifeng found a seat by the window, "Going forward, I'm afraid we will find out the family history of Xu's father and son who walked around the streets in the early years and worked as salesmen. It is said that their ancestral home is Xinyu City, and I have sent someone there, and I will hear back in about three days."

Ji Yanran nodded, and handed him the menu: "How many drinks did you drink last night, are you dizzy?"

"That wine is very mild." Yun Yifeng asked casually, "Is there anything special about summer?"

"There is green plum fruit wine in summer, and the one brewed in the palace is the best." Ji Yanran said, "It's sweeter than flower wine. Next time, we'll ask the emperor for a few jars."

Plum wine, sounds good.

Yun Yifeng agreed: "Yes."

"There is also maple dew in autumn, and heavy snow in winter." Ji Yanran asked again, "There is still the most intense burning knife in the northwest, come or not?"

"Don't come." Yun Yifeng returned the menu card to Xiaoer, "Feng Luxue is heavy enough to drink, but the name of Burning Knife is not good."

Ji Yanran propped her chin: "Then what name do you like? After I return to Yancheng, I will order all the wine shops in the city to change these three words. But let's say it first, after the change, you are not allowed to find other excuses .”

He speaks outrightly, with a dandyish demeanor.

The matter has not been finished, so naturally he cannot let people go.

But what if it's over

If things are done, there will still be hundreds of sets of new clothes piled upstairs.

At least you have to go through them one by one, let yourself read them all, and then talk about the separation or not.
