Luo Fengtang nodded, "Well, of course I know. By the way, Qing'er, the wine master really came to our bar today? If this matter is true, it will definitely cause a sensation in the capital in the past two days!"

Yang Ruoqing said: "Hey, when it comes to this wine master, it's really fate. After all, it's your son who has a lot of potential. He was the one who invited the wine master here."

"What's more, your son even made a deal with the Jiuxian. He borrowed my wine and offered flowers to the Buddha, so that the Jiuxian would willingly teach him kung fu!"

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Luo Fengtang opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"What? My Chen'er actually has such ability?" he asked.

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows. His surprised reaction was no less than her first reaction when she heard this.

I am really shocked and proud at the same time!

Luo Fengtang came back to his senses, and his voice became a little more excited: "That wine master is a great chivalrous person in this world. He not only has profound martial arts knowledge, but also has good conduct and chivalrous righteousness..."

"Looking back, I want to remind Chen'er that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from the Jiu Xiang. Not only must we learn the martial arts skills of the Jiu Xiu, but we must also learn how to be a hero like the Jiu Xiu..."

Luo Fengtang seemed to admire and admire Jiu Xian very much. When he mentioned Jiu Xian, he started talking endlessly.

But when Yang Ruoqing heard the words "good conduct", she almost laughed again.

A person of good character would steal a drink?

But then I thought about it, she was drinking in front of her, and she was drinking openly, not stealing.

Moreover, today was the critical moment when Zhuge Qing was making things difficult for her. Fortunately, the Jiuxian came to rescue her. Otherwise, this matter would have been really troublesome.

Because the economic benefits brought by the celebrity effect of the Jiu Xiu to the bar are, well, enough for the Jiu Xiu to drink a vat of wine without complaining.

"Okay, you can tell him these things later when you have time. It's time for us to go in now. The ingredients have already been put into the pot, and we are waiting for you, uncle!"

Yang Ruoqing took his arm and urged with a smile.

Luo Fengtang nodded, and the couple entered the hot pot shop together.

…

East Palace, the Prince's study.

Since Qi Xingyun came back, he has been shutting himself in his study, not thinking about food, stacking memorials aside without reading them, spreading out drawing paper and immersing himself in painting.

The valet stood aside holding his breath, not daring to say anything, and secretly watched his master painting one after another.

On the drawing paper, there is a woman's face, with a charming smile and a charming aura.

The waiter felt that the woman on the drawing looked familiar. She seemed to have seen her somewhere before, but she couldn't place it for a while.

I saw that my master was painting one after another, and they were all about the same woman. However, after he finished painting, he did not keep his hard-earned paintings, but crumpled them into a ball and threw them aside.

burned to ashes in the brazier.

He stared unblinkingly at the dancing flames in the brazier, watching the beautiful faces on the drawings come to life under the firelight, as if they were smiling at him.

When he stretched out his hand, the beauty's smiling face disappeared and turned into a pile of ashes.

He sat back on the imperial chair slumped, his eyes were empty and lifeless, but what emanated from that luxurious body was deep loneliness and loneliness.

"Master, these are the dowry names of the Crown Princess and the two concubines sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of Internal Affairs said that after Master, you have seen and verified, they will start to arrange the marriage."

The chamberlain carefully delivered a thick stack of lists and portraits to Qi Xingyun.

At this time, the only way to stop the master from being in a daze is to divert his attention to other things.

In the past six months, ever since the Holy One issued the decree to select a concubine for the master, the master has been doing this frequently from time to time.

Outside, there is the high-spirited Crown Prince, but once he returns to the mansion and enters the study, only the chamberlain can see a different His Highness.

He is alone.

The chamberlain felt very sorry for His Highness like this, and vaguely guessed that His Highness must have a woman in his heart.

His Highness has never mentioned this matter to anyone, including him, the chamberlain who has been following him. The chamberlain guessed that the woman must have an identity that cannot be mentioned.

The chamberlain felt very sorry for His Highness and could only hope that the future Crown Princess would come in soon and accompany His Highness. Then His Highness would not be sitting alone and in a daze all night like now.

Over at the desk, Qi Xingyun had already picked up a thick stack of papers in his hand and started flipping through them absentmindedly.

The one at the top was naturally sent by the British Duke. The concubine he wanted to take this time was the concubine of the British Duke, named Zhao Wanru.

He didn't have a deep impression of Zhao Wanru, but he just glanced at a very dignified and generous woman.

The most dignified person in the world is the most dignified person, and the British Duke is a long-established nobleman. From the time when his ancestors conquered the Qi Dynasty, the first British Duke has been following him and being loyal.

During the rebellion of the puppet emperor, the British were just and upright and resisted the puppet emperor with all their might.

In order to force the puppet emperor to release the captured court officials, the British Duke ran around and hit his head against a pillar in the Jinluan Palace. His blood flowed into a river on the spot and he was dying.

The puppet emperor was furious and arrested the British prince, the brother of the future crown princess.

He was charged with an unfounded crime and beaten to death in prison.

The bad news came back to the British government, and the British Duke, who had been seriously injured and was recuperating, died!

The British government only left women, children and young children.

After the Rebellion of the Puppet Emperor, although they rehabilitated the British prince, the British prince and his son, father and son, were already destined to die.

The emperor's father ordered that the only legitimate grandson of the British Duke be canonized as the current British Duke's son. This child is just eight years old now and will only officially inherit the throne when he turns sixteen.

And marrying the daughter-in-law of the British Duke as the crown princess can be regarded as another kind of compensation for the loyalty of the British Duke by the Qi Dynasty!

While Qi Xingyun was thinking about these things in his mind, his eyes scanned the paper in his hand.

It's nothing more than a portrait of the future crown princess, and then two portraits of the maidservants, followed by a long dowry list.

Qi Xingyun is not very interested in these trivial things, and they are just casual things.

Next is the list of Anlehou Mansion, which also contains these things as usual.

However, the appearance of Su Ziyue from the Anlehou Mansion is indeed superior to that of the Crown Princess Zhao Wanru.

But so what? The corners of Qi Xingyun's lips curled up with a hint of disdain. He was not a man of serious desires.

What's more, there is no woman he wants here, so it doesn't matter what she looks like.

"After verification, you can send these things back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
