But the plan of the two men to compete secretly was shattered at sunset.

At that time, Xu Lanyun, wearing an official uniform with blue and black embroidered flying crane and cloud patterns, strode into the mahogany threshold of Tingxian Building. After resting for half a day, her spirit was greatly relieved, and her eyes were clear and serious again. A solemn look.

As soon as she entered the door, she raised her hand without looking back, signaling to the Dali Temple Anzi who had followed her to guard the door.

This behavior alarmed the shopkeeper of the Nie family in Tingxian Building. He thought something had happened in the building, and his heart almost jumped into his throat. After thinking about it for a while, he put down the abacus he was fidgeting with, hurriedly made the last stroke on the account, smiled apologetically and walked out of the counter quickly, and said to Xu Lanyun: "I've seen the Beijing envoy. You are always busy with work, why are you free today?" Are you here to show off your face to a humble place like ours?"

Xu Lanyun looked back at him, nodded gently, and said in a calm tone: "It's not official business, shopkeeper, you don't need to think too much." After she answered this sentence, she raised her eyes to look at the suspended building on the sixth floor of Tingxian Building, and ordered: "Excuse me, shopkeeper. Invite the young master of the Nie family to speak with this envoy."

"What?! Dame Xu Damei came to see me?" Nie Renxi was so excited that he almost pushed open the window of Zhifeng Pavilion and jumped out.

The shopkeeper had a complicated look on his face. He raised his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead that was not there. It seemed that he had something to say.

Chi Linjing, who was very attentive, looked over at him and said, "Shopkeeper Nie will tell you what he wants to say. We are all our own people here and there are not so many rules."

The shopkeeper then sighed and first cupped his hands to Chi Linjing, "Sir, the envoy from the capital was wearing the official uniform of Dali Temple and his expression was very serious. As soon as he entered the door, he directly shouted for the young master to go down and talk to her. The subordinates didn't feel uncomfortable at all. How wonderful."

"Go, go, go!" Nie Renxi's face was full of disdain, his eyes filled with the spark of love, "She is your future young mistress, what can she do to me? She is here to have dinner with me! Come on! See if there is anything inappropriate in this young master's outfit? Uncle Nie, help me straighten the wrinkles on my shoulders. When I see my future wife, I must be more dignified and decent!" After he finished speaking, he started to leave.

"Wait a minute." Chi Linjing collected his thoughts and said, "I'll go with you."

"Go, go, go, go! What are you causing trouble with? That's my wife, not yours. Why are you joining in the fun?"

Nie Renxi stretched out his arm righteously and put it on the shoulder of Chi Linjing, who had just stood up, as if to prevent him from taking a step forward.

"Nie Renxi." Chi Linjing narrowed his eyes. For a moment, he wanted to kick Nie Renxi aside. However, considering that shopkeeper Nie was still there, his gentle and quiet image of Guangfeng Jiyue could not be broken, so he turned sideways. Approaching the young man in blue shirt, he whispered: "Are you really stupid? She is wearing the official uniform of Dali Temple and bringing six guards to come to you for dinner? And it is only the end of Shenshi, where can you have a meal at this time? She must be I'm going to Yin's house on errands, and I'm just passing by here to send a message. Don't delay, do you want her to wait a little longer? "

"You! Oops!" Nie Renxi grunted, shook his sleeves and turned around as if to compromise, "Then let's go."

Xu Lanyun had already sat down in the Bafang Seat in the hall. After a moment of free time, she did not forget to sort out the clues about the Yin family's tragedy in her mind.

Not long after, Nie Renxi in a blue shirt and the young master in green robe who she remembered as being extremely indifferent came into view. She suddenly came back to her senses, stood up and nodded as a greeting, "Young Master Nie, Mr. Ye. Sorry to bother you two." .”

"What are you talking about? Don't bother me, not at all. It's really a great honor for me to have an envoy from the capital come to my Tingxian Building!" Nie Renxi, the naughty man, smiled and waved to invite Xu Lanyun to sit down again.

Chi Linjing's chuckle reached his ears without warning, and bad thoughts arose in his mind. He felt that Chi Linjing was going to ridicule his behavior next, so he had an idea and spoke first: " Why don't you come and sit down, waiting for me to greet you at home?" After hearing this, Xu Lanyun raised her eyes again and looked at the long, green-robed young man standing in front of her. He was still as lazy and tired as when they first met, but his eyes were slightly There is clearly a smile that was not there before in her beautiful peach eyes. He is a very strange person. Xu Lanyun has always felt like this. He seems to be uninterested in everything in the world, but yet he seems to contain everything in the world in his dark, calm and bottomless eyes. .

His clothes are still in the style of the flower-embroidered dragon robe, but the background color has been changed. It is now made of water-blue brocade lined with dark green and embroidered with vaguely floating patterns. Under the natural light, it can produce all kinds of changes, just like others. Just as mysterious.

Chi Linjing noticed Xu Lanyun's confused eyes. He met her eyes in mid-air, but the smile in his eyes was long gone.

Young Master Qingpao asked quietly: "Since the envoy from the capital is here wearing official robes, do you think he has something serious to tell you?"

"It's not a serious matter," Xu Lanyun looked around at the two of them, "I am going to Yin's house on this trip and will pass by the Dizi Prison. I want to ask for some food in Tingxian Building for A Luo, Yu Liu Gong and the others. The environment in the Dizi cell is difficult and the food is not good. I went to see A Luo this morning. She once said that Mr. Yu Liu likes to eat the mulberry cakes in Tingxian Building. I wonder if there is any fresh ones left in the kitchen?"

"Mulberry cake?" Chi Linjing's thoughts wandered around, "Are you sure it's mulberry cake? Not rose cake?"

Xu Lanyun shook his head and answered seriously: "I remember correctly, Ah Luo did say mulberry flower cake. Is there anything wrong?"

Nie Renxi was rarely clever and answered immediately: "There is nothing wrong. The main reason is that the mulberry flower cake is more complicated to make than the rose cake and takes a little more time. Aye works as the kitchen supervisor in Tingxian Building. He knows this best. You must be afraid that the capital will keep you waiting for a long time, so you ask too much, right? Aye? "

Chi Linjing frowned and glanced at him, then paced towards the kitchen.

After walking out of the sight of Nie Renxi and Xu Lanyun, he held his forehead and sighed, complaining in his heart: What a Nie Renxi, his lies have reached a new level. Among the two signature cakes of Tingxianlou, the rose cake is obviously more difficult to make than the mulberry cake. The rose cake can be made by steaming and drying the roses four times, while the mulberry cake only needs to use the mulberry paste prepared in advance...

Even he, who doesn't care about the inn business, knows this. As the authentic young master of the Nie family, he still dares to use this to deceive the future young lady of the Nie family that he keeps mentioning? He's really brave enough.

However, looking at Xu Lanyun's unquestioning look just now, it seemed as if he really believed Nie Renxi's lies.

From this point of view, the two of them are indeed a good match. After all, when Zhou Yu fights Huang Gai, what matters is that one can fight and the other resists, and the same is true for emotions. People can be deceived, and Lan Yun can be deceived. Isn't it considered to be a mandarin duck playing the harp and the harp?

Chi Linjing laughed. The moment he stepped into the back kitchen door, he thought deeply about Yin Luo's intention of asking for the mulberry flower cake.

Mulberry flower cakes need to be filled with fillings, as do rose cakes. Choosing pastries with fillings must be to help them convey the message.

Ha ha. Young Master Nie finally turned on his screen.
