For a few days, Xia Hongsheng looked like he was living here, and in addition to cooking his own meals on weekdays, he had been silently recalling the story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms at his desk, carefully waiting for the opportunity. The woman in red, Youji, still has to come to Xia Hongsheng every day, if it seems to others who don't know the inside story, there seems to be no gap between the two, just like friends. You Ji likes to read Xia Hongsheng's Three Kingdoms very much, and the first thing she does when she arrives here every day is to read Xia Hongsheng's newly written manuscript first. Then the two will discuss the plot and direction inside, Youji will put forward her own opinions and opinions, as well as the evaluation of the story inside, and even help Xia Hongsheng polish the writing, and there seems to be no hostility between the two. But both of them know that Youji is trying her best to win over Xia Hongsheng, and Xia Hongsheng is deliberately looking for opportunities.

"The talent of the child, the concubine doesn't know how to describe it. The strategy and power law in this has repeatedly shocked the concubine, and I really don't know how the son came up with these things. Yuhime put down the manuscript in her hand and sighed.

Xia Hongsheng smiled: "Miss Youji is too modest, if it weren't for Miss Youji's polishing, she wouldn't be able to write these irresistible effects just by relying on it." ”

But seeing that Youji's face showed a look of regret, she said, "It's a pity that the concubine needs to go out tomorrow because she has something to do, but she is going to miss it." Thinking that she couldn't see the follow-up for a few days, the concubine's heart felt uncomfortable. ”

Youji's voice was full of regret and resentment, Xia Hongsheng heard it in his ears, but he didn't show anything, just asked, "Oh? What kind of things does Miss Yuji have to deal with? If it's okay, why don't you talk about it, maybe you can help the girl think about it? ”

It's not that he really wants to help her, it's just that for Xia Hongsheng now, the more he knows about their affairs, the more he can find opportunities from the middle.

Seeing that Yuhime just smiled, but didn't speak. Xia Hongsheng shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Understood." If the girl is inconvenient to say, then she will not ask. However, as I said before, if it is not a matter of principle. It's okay to help a group of girls, and I have the right to repay the courtesy of the girls in the past few days, just because I don't want to owe everyone favors. However, it seems that this matter involves the girl's secrets, so I won't ask about it in the future. ”

After speaking, Xia Hongsheng continued to sit back. recalled his Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

But seeing the woman in red next to her, her eyes rolled, and then she put on an apologetic smile, bowed slightly, and said: "Don't be angry with Gongzi Xia, Gongzi wants to know, and the concubine will tell Gongzi." It's not a big deal, it's just that there are some problems in the city's industry, and the concubine needs to come up with a countermeasure. ”

"But I don't know what kind of industry it is, what is wrong?" Xia Hongsheng pretended to be curious and asked.

"It's not an industrial problem, a few people who don't want to die are bold. I stole something and hid it, but now I don't open my mouth, and I'm waiting for the concubine to go over and interrogate it. You Ji looked as if she had no concealment, and said to Xia Hongsheng.

Xia Hongsheng didn't know which of what Youji said was true and which was false, but his heart moved, and a confident smile appeared on his face, and said, "I see, what's so difficult about this." If Miss Yuhime doesn't mind, take this opportunity to see what the next means are? ”

"Oh? Childe would like to help? Yuhime looked surprised.

Xia Hongsheng put it away. said as if he didn't care: "It's just a matter of prying open the mouths of a few people, and it's really not very difficult." As I said below, as long as it is not a matter of principle, it is for the sake of the girl's courtesy. Naturally, if the girl's thing is rebellious, this busy person can't help. If the girl doesn't mind, she can take someone here, or she can take it with you. They must open their mouths to confide in the truth, and dare not hide it at all. ”

"It's really rare for a child to be willing to help, how dare the concubine bother the son to run in person?" You Ji said to Xia Hongsheng with a look of surprise: "That concubine will set off immediately today and go to bring those people back to the son!" ”

The woman in red bowed, then hurriedly turned and left.

Xia Hongsheng sneered in his heart, this woman was really careful and careful, and she still couldn't go out after all. However, if there are really so many people coming, it is finally an opportunity.

In the process of helping to interrogate those people, if you guide them properly, you will be able to get a lot of information that Xia Hongsheng needs, and at least you will know where this place is. Then I can continue to find a way to secretly pass on the information here.

After the woman in red left, Xia Hongsheng continued to write his Romance of the Three Kingdoms. After a long time, Xia Hongsheng suddenly raised his head, put down the brush, turned his head to the maid and asked: "This girl, I have been writing for a long time, my mind is dull and difficult to concentrate at this time, there are only you and me here, can I chat with the girl for a few words, or change my mind and take a break?" ”

"Don't dare to be, what does the son want to ask the slave?" The maid hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said to Xia Hongsheng.

Knowing that this maid was sent by the woman in red, Xia Hongsheng didn't treat her as an ordinary maidservant, smiled and asked, "Thank you girl, but I don't know how old the girl is this year?" ”

"If you go back to Gongzi, there are six out of ten slaves this year." The maid's face remained unchanged and said to Xia Hongsheng.

"Oh, it's the twenty-eighth period, and it's the best time!" Xia Hongsheng nodded, and said, "I don't know if the girl can read and write?" ”

"With the young lady recognizes a few." The maid still bowed her head and bowed her eyebrows.

"Speaking of your young lady, I always feel that Youji doesn't seem to be like her real name." Xia Hongsheng touched his chin and said to the maid: "Your young lady's scheming skills, don't say that she is among women, that is, men in the world, how many can compare with them?" Even I am ashamed of myself, if I am a man, I must be a great talent of the auxiliary country. Alas, it's a pity, a beautiful woman, why be a thief. ”

Xia Hongsheng sighed and shook his head.

Hearing Xia Hongsheng's words, the maid's face finally changed a little, and she seemed to be a little angry and retorted to Xia Hongsheng: "Why did the son say that my young lady is a thief? ”

Xia Hongsheng smiled and counted: "Girl, in the last years of the previous dynasty, Emperor Yang had no way, which caused chaos and disputes in the world, and the people were displaced. If the peace is finally settled today, the people will no longer have to suffer from the war. But what about your young lady, she always wants to re-disturb the world that has finally settled down, isn't she a thief? Girl, think about it, if your young lady really succeeds and turns the world upside down again, how many innocent people in the world should fall into the war again and be displaced? My father and brother died in the war, and I am well aware of the disastrous consequences of the war. Your young lady is a person who combines intelligence and beauty, and she pities her, so she does not want your young lady to embark on a wrong path that is destined to be scolded by all the people and left a stench for thousands of years. It's a pity that your young lady is obsessed, and she still wants to pull me to be scolded by the world with her, and I persuade her not to listen, it's really ......"

Xia Hongsheng hated iron but not steel, he knew that everything he said today, this servant girl would relayed it to Youji as it was, so Xia Hongsheng said to himself: "Alas, I'm not afraid of your jokes, a beautiful and smart woman like your young lady, what man would bear to abandon her and watch her walk on a road of no return." I also helped her, but your young lady is now a fan of the authorities, and she can't see the situation clearly when she is deeply involved. As far as I know, Li Jiancheng died, and his descendants were not spared, so in fact, she may not really have anything to do with Li Jiancheng, the person who is really commanding your young lady behind the scenes is nothing more than using them under the banner of avenging Li Jiancheng and wanting to achieve his goal of being the emperor. Let me tell you, if it weren't for the pity of your young lady and the desire to pull her and prevent her from going further and further on this road of no return, my son would have escaped a long time ago! Well, don't say this to your young lady, otherwise she will be angry and won't send me something, and you won't be able to eat the food I cooked. ”

"Childe really thinks so?" The servant girl looked visibly disbelieving.

Xia Hongsheng shook his head, sighed and said, "I know you don't believe it, but think about it, if you are a man, if you see a peerless beauty like your young lady, you are about to make a mistake and kill yourself, don't you want to pull her back?" I'm a layman, too! Forget it, let's not talk about this, what kind of specialties do you have here? It's better to eat, tell me about it. ”

"Childe wants to know, so the slave will talk to Childe." The maid's face has never changed, and she has always maintained a lowered head and low eyebrows, and said: "The special feature that can be eaten here is the soup cake, and the soup cake here is not very different from other places. ”

"Soup cakes?" Xia Hongsheng was stunned for a moment, a little disappointed in his heart, soup cakes are noodles, what characteristics can noodles have, and asked: "Let's bother the girl to tell me more about the soup cakes here!" ”

The maid nodded and said, "The soup cakes here are different from the other places, they use more sour and hemp flavors, and the soup is more noodles and less noodles, if you want to talk about it, there are stories in it!" ”

"Haha, this son likes to listen to this folk tale the most, girl, come quickly!" Xia Hongsheng's eyes were even brighter, and he urged again and again.

The maid nodded: "It is said that many years ago, there was an evil dragon on the side of the Wei River, and there was a drought for three years, and the people were not able to make a living." The Zhou clan here could not bear to leave their hometown, which had been built by several generations of clansmen, so they fought back and killed the evil dragon after seven days of fighting. The warriors fought for seven days, and were so hungry that they slew the dragon and the pasta, and found it delicious, and the soup cake was handed down. ”

After listening to the maidservant, Xia Hongsheng's face suddenly turned into a strange look, which seemed to be a little funny and a little surprised, and looked at the woman with a smile.

"What's wrong with Childe?" The maid saw Xia Hongsheng's expression as if she was smiling, so she asked.

Xia Hongsheng shook his head: "No, I think that people can kill the dragon and eat the dragon meat, it's a bit absurd." ”

But there was a wild beat in his heart - this story he had heard in later generations!

Qishan Zhenzi noodles!

Qishan! (To be continued.) )
