Deep in Peach Blossoms

Chapter 65: Imperial capital is safe

Views:

A few months later, the batch of wine brewed by Bai Ling was ready to be unsealed. However, Wang Songlin searched all over the imperial capital, but couldn't find Bai Ling.

As for Li He, in order to make a living, he could only ask Wang Songlin to help him in the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant and do odd jobs. And Wang Songlin, thinking about Bai Ling's face, not only ordered the other servants to treat Li He as preferentially as possible, but also left the Shangmei Garden for Li He to live in.

Of course, all of this also depends on the quality of that batch of wine.

...

It's hot, and the heat is coming. Even the climate is pleasant. The imperial capital, which is like spring all the year round, can't help feeling a little stuffy. Many high-ranking officials and dignitaries are a little tired and don't want to go out anymore.

However, as long as it is night, these dignitaries are still very willing to come out.

Not for anything else, just for the excellent drinks in Longfeng Restaurant, they are very willing to make a trip for it.

The high-quality sweet plum wine, the fragrant sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and the mellow and intoxicating peach blossom wine are the favorites of these dignitaries. Especially on this summer night, when the night heat subsides and a cool breeze blows. Take a sip of the wine you like and love, and taste a few small dishes unique to the summer of Longfeng Restaurant, it is simply the most beautiful in the world.

And as long as these dignitaries like it, the money will naturally flow into the account of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.

These days, Wang Songlin is also happy and sad, mixed. Fortunately, the business of this Longfeng restaurant is so good, and the drinks are almost sold at sky-high prices. The sad thing is that since Bai Ling brewed the first batch of mature wine, it seemed as if the world had evaporated, and it never appeared again.

The brother Li He who asked Bai Ling also didn't know what to ask, and he hesitated when he spoke. There was no other way, so Wang Songlin had no choice but to intensify the search, trying his best to find Bai Ling.

It's a pity that if a person really wants to hide, no matter how capable you are, you won't be able to find him. In the end, Wang Songlin almost gave up on this matter. I can only watch helplessly as the wine in the wine cellar is getting less and less, less and less. In the end, the idea of shoddy good almost popped up. But this thought was only fleeting. After all, with such a good reputation as the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant, no matter what, you can't just abandon your own reputation just for the sake of immediate benefits.

After much deliberation, Wang Songlin finally gave up this idea. He could only honestly take the wine brewed by Bai Ling and let it go after they were sold out.

Shangmeiyuan, late at night.

Li He sat alone under the big tree in the courtyard, with a jar of turbid old wine on the stone table. The white and flawless moonlight poured down through the thick clouds, accompanied by the dazzling starlight, and fell all over the ground.

Li He held the jar of old wine, raised his head and took a big gulp. The strong smell of wine rushes straight into the cavity, filling the entire taste buds. It was so hot, it was almost like burning. The wine that Li He drank was the worst first-class wine in the imperial capital, and it was called Lao Nong Wine.

The old farmer's wine is made from the most inferior sorghum and yellow millet. It is extremely strong and very unpalatable. Especially that momentum, it went straight to the forehead, making people a little dizzy.

To be honest, this wine is a kind of wine specially prepared by hunters who go hunting in the mountains in winter to warm their bodies. As long as you take a sip, you can immediately warm up quickly. As for the taste...it's really not flattering.

And the reason why Li He drinks this wine... is naturally because he has no money...

Even if he himself wanted to drink away his worries, he couldn't find a better wine, so he had a quick drink. I can only rely on this old farmer's wine to let myself get drunk.

"cough cough"

Li He's face was reddish, and he was already overwhelmed with alcohol, and began to faint. Even looking at the surrounding things, it was a little blurry, and I couldn't see clearly. It's just that in that mouth, they kept chanting, shouting non-stop: "Xiaobai, Xiaobai..."

In the end, the whole person leaned against the stone table beside him, his eyes were reddish, and he fell into a deep sleep.

The starry sky was full of stars, and the cool summer night breeze gently blew past Li He's side one after another. Even in this midsummer, it is unavoidable to feel a little chilly, and the whole body is shaking from the cold.

In the middle of the night, Li He couldn't bear the cold. He opened his eyes in a haze, but only saw a shadowy figure in the dark night, as if it was the person he was thinking about day and night. Li He's whole body trembled, and he immediately woke up without any sleepiness, and carefully looked at the person in the dark night.

But before he could speak, he felt a pain in the back of his neck, and he fainted.

In the quiet night, it seemed that none of this had happened. Only the jar of muddy old peasant wine remained on the stone table under the big tree, motionless, bathed in the starlight...

... ... .

In the middle of the night, in the northern city of the imperial capital, in a grassy courtyard in the outer suburbs.

Bai Ling lay on the mat woven of grass roots, turning from side to side, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep no matter what. For some reason, I felt very panicked, as if something big was about to happen.

The cold moonlight poured in from the window, shining on Bai Ling's face impartially. It was densely packed, full of Nine Serenity Kun Gu, moving on Bai Ling's face, looking very pervasive. Taking a closer look, I am afraid that the poison of the Nine Nether Kun Gu has become deeper.

If anyone saw this scene at this moment, they would probably faint from fright.

But Bai Ling didn't care about that much anymore, he immediately turned over and got out of bed, tidied up a bit, and went out wearing his bamboo hat.

It wasn't because of anything else, it was entirely because of this inexplicable flustered feeling, which was so similar to the last time when Li He was sucked by the butterfly witch, that Bai Ling had no doubt about him.

Bai Ling frowned and galloped all the way. Regardless of the wilderness and the slippery road in the dark, he only wanted to go to Shangmeiyuan wholeheartedly. But no matter how anxious he was, the journey was long, and at his walking speed, it was still slow.

What's more, he is now in the wilderness outside the northern city of the imperial capital, and there is still a considerable distance from Shangmeiyuan located in the southern city.

And Bai Ling, who knew this well, didn't dare to neglect along the way, and was very anxious. So much so that in the end, Bai Ling ran more and more panicked, more and more panicked, and when he was in a panic, he was suddenly tripped by a stone, and his whole body flew into the air for a second, and then flew out, slamming Fell on a piece of dry grass.

Bai Ling snorted, took a big mouthful of plaster, and the bamboo hat on his head was thrown flying far away.

Moreover, because it was midsummer, Bai Ling was wearing thin clothes. So much so that his body, arms, and neck were all scars from friction on the ground.

Some are a large piece, some are a small piece, but more are small wounds cut by many grass thorns. The wound was still covered with mud on the ground, and the clothes became tattered, and he was in a mess.

This fall was very painful, but more, it made people feel very uncomfortable.

At that moment, all the past events were nothing compared to the worries in Bai Ling's heart at this moment. In front of life, any poverty, wealth, ugliness and beauty are just like a passing cloud, blowing away. Thinking back now, the various grievances, all kinds of sarcasm and blank stares that I had suffered before seemed so insignificant and useless.

At this moment, only the life of one's lover is the most precious.

"Ahe, wait for me!"

Bai Ling didn't dare to be negligent, she quickly got up and rushed towards Shangmei Garden in a hurry.

The stars and the moon alternate, the bright night is blurred, and the sky of the entire imperial capital slowly changes from the extremely sinking darkness to the morning of night and dawn, slowly intertwining the magical scenery. The sky is still slightly glowing with rays of light. When this hazy day and night alternate, it is so beautiful and intoxicating.

Such a beautiful and moving scene is the most satisfying when accompanied by the person you love the most, and to enjoy it together.

But right now, Bai Ling had no time to appreciate such a magnificent scene, he just focused on rushing back to Shangmei Garden to see how Li He was doing.

Hopefully, all of this is just his own random guesswork, a false alarm. While running, Bai Ling silently comforted himself.

When Bai Ling managed to get to Shangmeiyuan, his lungs seemed to be blown up, and he felt so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe. Even the profuse sweat on his forehead was not enough to prove how tired Bai Ling was at the moment.

Panting for breath, Bai Ling mustered up the courage to push open the gate of Shangmei Garden. The man who made him think about it day and night, day and day, did not appear behind the door. Not to mention his warm and charming smile that makes people's heart beat. Yes, it's just the tall old trees in the courtyard, the deserted stone slabs... and... a man in black who is very strange to him, but very familiar... ..

When he saw the man in black for the first time, Bai Ling's whole consciousness was a little flustered, and he subconsciously ran away, the farther he ran, the better. But his rationality told him that Li He must be in their hands. If he runs away like this, Li He will definitely suffer.

So, when he finally calmed down, he completely cut off the thought of running away. Hehe... Of course, without the inner alchemy and cultivation, what can he use to run past others

Bai Ling's tone was cold, without the slightest politeness, he said, "Why are you here? Fang Ye sent you here?"

The man in black slowly sat up from the stone bench, and looked at Bai Ling who was wearing a bamboo hat. After he confirmed that the person in front of him was the one he was looking for, he twitched the corners of his mouth at Bai Ling in a serious manner. And when he did this, he obviously wanted to laugh for Bai Ling to see, but because of his stiff face, it looked very strange. It didn't feel like he was showing favor to Bai Ling, but rather like an extremely cold mockery.

Putting these aside, Bai Ling clearly saw a black dragon on the arm of this person's clothes. This is a symbol only available to the guards of the imperial guards who guard Fang Ye in the demon world.

Because it can be seen often, Bai Ling is also very familiar with the black dragon logo. However, the most important thing is that the black dragon on this person's arm actually has a gilded gold border. This can only be worn by the commander of the imperial army. Now that he appears here, is there something more important going to happen

Just when Bai Ling was thinking wildly, the commander of the forbidden army said something, bowed his hands respectfully to Bai Ling and said, "Master Bai Ling, Master Ying is here to welcome you!"

This sentence made Bai Ling's heart tremble, and his scalp tingled unconsciously.

Is it Hanako Sakura
