Chapter 110 Tea Shop
A month later, the four successfully entered the Guangxi border.

As soon as we entered the Guangxi border, the weather suddenly turned hot, just like the weather in Beijing in June and July, which was unstoppably hot.

Yan Sanhe, who had always been afraid of heat but not cold, couldn't bear it immediately. He became dizzy and almost fell off his horse.

Xie Zhifei saw clearly and shouted: "Li Buyan, stop and rest."

Li Buyan turned his head, and when he saw Yan Sanhe's face as pale as paper, he hurriedly said: "Third Master, please take care of the young lady, I will go ahead to see if there is an inn."

Xie Zhifei pinched the horse's belly and brought it level with Yan Sanhe's head, "Are you suffering from heatstroke?"

Yan Sanhe nodded, "I'm afraid of the heat."

Xie Zhifei: "When we get to Nanning Mansion, let's buy some thin clothes first."

Pei Xiao rode up and caught up, "After buying some clothes, go have a nice meal with wine and meat. If this continues, I will almost become a monk."

"Miss, Third Master."

Li Buyan galloped towards them, "There is a herbal tea shop ahead. Let's take a rest."

……

The herbal tea shop was placed under the shade of a tree and at the ventilation opening, it was already full of people.

Yan Sanhe found a tree mat to lean on.

Just when Xie Zhifei was about to step forward and remind her, "It's cold on the ground," he saw her raising her hand to unbutton her collar, turned around quickly, and looked away.

He moved half a step to the side as if nothing had happened, and his two straight long legs would block everyone's sight.

In public, you don't pay any attention. Didn't you see that there are a bunch of gentlemen in this shop?
Li Buyan came over with a tea bowl, "Miss, moisten your throat!"

Yan Sanhe drank it in one breath and said, "One more bowl."

"it is good!"

"Miss Li, where's mine?" Xie Zhifei's eyes grew hot.

"Third Master has hands and feet, take it yourself."

Xie Zhifei's expression went blank for a moment, and he missed Zhu Qing very much.

After drinking two bowls, the heat suddenly disappeared a lot. Yan Sanhe nodded to Li Buyan and leaned against the tree with his eyes closed to rest.

"Shop."

Li Buyan walked over with a smile, "How far is it from Nanning Mansion?"

The shopkeeper was an old man in his early fifties, dark and thin, "It's not far, we still have two or three hours to ride."

Li Buyan: "Then...where is the most famous temple in Nanning Prefecture?"

The old man laughed and said: "The most famous temple in our Nanning Prefecture is in Qingxiu Mountain, called Guanyin Temple. The girl must have come here to seek marriage. You have to hurry up and grab the first stick of incense. She is alive!"

"Old man, you are blind. With this girl's beauty, even if you don't have to beg, the door will be stepped down by the matchmaker."

"That's right, the face is the face, the waist is the waist."

"The skin is so tender that you can pinch the water out of it."

"Snapped!"

Li Buyan placed the soft sword on his waist heavily on the table.

Everyone in the herbal tea shop shut up, and one of them, a middle-aged man in civilian clothes, threw down two pennies and left.

"Master Zhou, how can I ask for your money? Master Zhou, Master Zhou..."

The old man chased him out. The man waved his hand, got on his horse, and left without looking back.

"Good officer!"

The old man put the money into his purse and walked back, sighing: "If there are more good officials like this in this world, the lives of our people will be easier."

When he looked up, the old man was dumbfounded. The herbal tea shop that was full just now had only four customers left.

"Girl, you scared away all my guests." He stamped his feet.

"I'll pay you."

Li Buyan took out two taels of silver from his arms and threw it over, "Miss, Third Master, Mr. Pei, let's take a break and set off. We can travel two or three hours in one breath."

Seeing that Yan Sanhe seemed to be asleep, Xie Zhifei hurriedly responded: "Okay."

Yan Sanhe was not asleep, but he just didn't want to open his eyes. He was afraid that the sunflower water was coming, and he was very uncomfortable.

After a cup of tea, she stood up and took just two steps when her foot suddenly stopped and said, "Xie Zhifei, are you here to take a look?"

"What's wrong?" Xie Zhifei walked over and looked in the direction of her finger, his face changed drastically, "This is yours..."

"The little baggage I carry my silver in."

"Why are you here? Could it be..."

Xie Zhifei instantly had the answer, "The thief is among these tea guests."

Pei Xiao went over to take a look and said casually: "Could it be Mr. Zhou just now?"

"Oh, I'm talking about you, guest!"

The old man's face darkened, "You can doubt anyone, but if you doubt us Lord Zhou, it will be like thunder. Lord Zhou is a good official."

Pei Xiao was dissatisfied, "A good official won't steal anything?"

"If he can steal things, I can go to heaven!"

The old man was completely angry and wanted to rush over to Pei Xiao to fight for his life.

"He gives porridge all year round. He paid for my herbal tea shop to open for me. Five out of ten people in Nanning Prefecture have received his favor."

After that, he threw the two taels of silver on the ground.

"Whoever wants your dirty money, get out of here! Get out of here!"

Pei Xiao was about to argue again, but was stopped by Xie Zhifei's look.

"Old man, don't be angry. This brother of mine doesn't know how to speak. You're right. It can't be Master Zhou who steals from anyone."

"It's impossible!" The old man blushed with anxiety.

Xie Zhifei grabbed the small bundle from the bushes and then picked up the silver, "Keep the silver and don't vent your anger on anyone, not with the silver. It's not easy to do business in this hot weather."

"You are the only one who understands." The old man accepted the money.

"By the way, what kind of official is he in your Nanning Mansion?"

"Our parent officer."

"It turns out to be the prefect, but shouldn't the prefect be in the Yamen at this time?"

"Otherwise, he is a good official. Mr. Zhou can't sit still in the yamen. He runs to the farm and the mountain every two days."

"He's just one person. Such a big official doesn't have a few government officials?"

"How many government officials can stand such a hot day?"

"Aren't there any followers?"

"Master Zhou's money has been used to help us people. Let alone the entourage, I heard that there are not even a few servants in the mansion."

"You are such a good official."

Xie Zhifei thrust the small bundle into Yan Sanhe's hand and said, "Let's go."

The herbal tea shop lags far behind.

Xie Zhifei rode up to Yan Sanhe, "You said... is it him?"

Yan Sanhe looked at him and said, "There is no evidence."

"Even if it were him, he would kill the rich and give to the poor, what a hero does. There are too few good officials like this in our country."

After Li Buyan finished speaking, he turned his head and smiled, "Third Master, how about we compare the last part of the journey?"

Xie Zhifei was immediately interested when she provoked him like this. He had already seen that this girl's horse riding skills were very good.

"What color head?"

"The loser helps the winner go to Guanyin Temple to get the first incense stick."

Xie Zhifei laughed: "Deal!"

The two locked eyes, raised their whips high at the same time, and then galloped out.

"Yan Sanhe."

Pei Xiao looked at it and shook his head, "Do you think those two are stupid? Isn't the head pillar incense just a matter of words for me, a good person like you?"

Yan Sanhe ignored him and whipped his horse whip.

"drive!"
