His wife and son were not there, and he returned to the empty Xuanyangfang private house from the courtyard where Yu Wenrong invited him early in the morning, Du Shiyi remembered that he forgot to send a letter to his father-in-law Wang Yuanbao, and after sending someone away, he felt that the huge place was empty and lonely.

He just returned to Beijing today, his sister and brother-in-law are all in Yunzhou, most of his relatives and friends are foreign officials, and there are only a few friends in the capital, such as Wang Jin, I am afraid that these people may not know that he is back at this moment, plus the Son of Heaven has asked him to go home for a while, so he went straight to the study. Probably because he was always clean, the furnishings were still clean, and the servant changed into a new pillow quilt on the soft couch he usually used to take a nap, and he fell asleep after bathing and quickly filling his stomach. The fatigue of this rush and the caution when facing the king, coupled with the quarrel with Yu Wenrong last night, he thought that he would toss and turn, but he almost fell asleep.

He slept until he vaguely heard someone whispering, and then he opened his eyes. Vaguely aware of the change in the light in the room, he couldn't help but lazily ask, "What time is it?" ”

"Lord Lang, it's already evening." Wu Tianqi, who was on the side, saw Du Shiyi staring at his face for a long time, and hurriedly explained, "Because the people who came back with Lord Lang were tired all the way, my grandfather said that others may not be reliable, so he assigned me to serve Lord Lang." ”

Du Shiyi didn't know that the most useful manpower was brought to Yunzhou by him, and Wu Jiu also returned to Chang'an after solving the grain price turmoil last year, taking charge of many cultural industries on the side of Qianbao Pavilion, and taking care of the housekeeping of Fanchuan Duqu's old house and this Xuanyangfang private house. Knowing that Wu Tianqi was still on his own orders before, he returned to Beijing with a large number of poetry manuscripts to print them, so he nodded and said, "Very good, during my stay in Beijing, everything around me will be handed over to you." When I'm asleep, can someone visit or bring back a book? ”

"Yes, Prime Minister Yuan and Prime Minister Song both sent palindromes at home, saying that they invited Lord Lang to go home when he was free. Yuzhen Guan and Jin Xian Guan also sent back books, and the two Guan Masters and Taizhen Niangzi both went to the Wangwu Mountain Balcony to observe and meditate from Sect Master Sima. Wang Yushi and Wang Xiaoshu have both been here, I was going to wake up Lord Lang, but they all said it was no big deal, Lord Lang hurried back all the way, he must be tired, so he didn't let me be alarmed. The prince of Yong'an Fang said that Lord Lang's return is official business, and it doesn't matter if he visits again. ”

Wang Yushi refers to Wang Jin, and Wang Xiaoshu refers to Wang Changling, Du Shiyi naturally will not distinguish mistakes. Since they knew that the two of them came to look for him but left without alerting him, then, at least at their level, they didn't know much news, or even if they knew some rumors, they didn't think it was too important. However, Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian are not in Beijing, and it is not good for him, who has returned to Chang'an on official business, to go straight to Wangwu Mountain, but Yuan Qianyao and Song Jing are there, and they can go to visit him another day. As for his father-in-law, Wang Yuanbao, he still had to wait for the trouble on his body to clear up before looking for someone.

So he breathed a long sigh of relief, but now he didn't feel sleepy. However, at this time, there was a curfew, and Xuanyangfang couldn't get out, but there was no mansion in the fang that he was familiar with, so after thinking about it, he asked thoughtfully: "In this Xuanyangfang, do you know any famous wine shops?" ”

When Du Shiyi was in Chang'an in the past, he rarely went to this kind of pastime at night, and Wu Tianqi was the first time to serve him in this imperial capital, where did he know this, at this time, he only felt happy in his heart, and his eyes turned and he said excitedly: "Next to Jingyu Temple in the southwest corner, there is an orchid wine shop, and the turtle orchid in it dances very well. ”

Du Shiyi, who was sleeping with a dry mouth, was drinking tea, and was almost choked by Wu Tianqi's ambiguous tone. I had the heart to give this kid a little look, but in the end he still said casually: "Jingyu Temple? I remember that Wu Daoxuan seems to have painted murals for Jingyu Temple......"

He was about to use this tone to divert this topic, but who wanted Wu Tianqi to pick up the conversation smartly and said: "Lord Lang should have a bad memory, Jingyu Temple once asked Mr. Daoxuan to paint a mural, but Mr. Daoxuan is good at wine and good at delaying, which is famous, so this mural has not been painted for two years." These days, Mr. Dao Xuan has been forced by the monks to stay in the monastery, but I have heard that he often goes out at night to get drunk and have fun in the orchid wine shop next to him, and I hope that Lord Lang will meet him again at this time. ”

Well, this kid just wants him to go around that place of sound, doesn't he?

Originally, Du Shiyi was not interested in watching the Hu Xuan Dance of the Turtle Dance, but when he heard that Wu Daozi often visited, he remembered that Wu Daozi had domineeringly monopolized the right to use Qi Yanmo for one year, but later because of its use, Qi Yanmo became popular again, and he also wanted to know about the recent situation of this painting saint. So, after changing into a civilian robe, he only took Wu Tianqi with him and quietly came out of the back door. When I arrived at the orchid restaurant, I saw that it was crowded, and almost every table was full of drinkers, and the orchid on the stage was constantly spinning, and it was really a good hand.

Sweeping among the many drinkers, he soon saw Wu Daoxuan, who was alone in the corner, and immediately took Wu Tianqi over there. When he sat down opposite Wu Daoxuan, there was immediately the sound of many people around him talking.

"Someone wants to fight that Wu Daoxuan's idea again"

"Tsk, I don't know what kind of outrageous behavior this Wu madness will have, but last time that kid was poured by a pot of wine, he was deeply cold."

"Splashed with wine or haode, there was a guy who was drenched with ink before, tsk, I really don't know how to wash it when I go back"

These gloating words around her ears came into her ears, and Du Shiyi only felt angry and funny, but at the same time she was alert. He didn't want Wu Daozi to drink too much to use this trick on himself, so after a little thought, he gestured to Wu Tianqi, and when he came closer, he asked in a low voice, and after getting Wu Tianqi's answer, he said to Wu Daozi with a smile: "Mr. Wu, I have a new ink for you to try, I don't know if you want to?" ”

This opening statement surprised everyone around who were waiting to see the excitement. Sure enough, Wu Daozi, who was still drunk and staggered just now, sat up straight all of a sudden, and he tried to gather his eyes to look at Du Shiyi for a while, and immediately showed a look of surprise and joy: "Yes...... Are you really ...... Is there really good ink? This...... Needless to say, bring it at once."

The more he said this, the smoother it became, Du Shiyi couldn't help but smile, stepped forward and sat down next to someone, directly snatched Wu Daoxuan's wine jug, motioned to the guy to send an empty wine cup, and drank it all after filling it himself, then said with a smile: "Will I lie to you?" But it's going to be delivered tomorrow, and it's the middle of the night, so it's hard to make people pick it up at night? Long time no see, how is Mr. Wu doing? ”

"Good...... What a fart" Wu Daozi took a sip angrily, and saw that someone next to him diligently handed over a bowl of things, he drank it all without knowing it, and then immediately sank his face angrily, "Who wants to drink this Laoshizi sobering soup"

However, the sour soup was so sour that his brows furrowed, and he was half awake from the wine. Squinting his eyes, he saw clearly that it was Du Shiyi sitting next to him, he glanced left and right, and found that all the drinkers were paying attention to them with their heads open, he suddenly snorted coldly: "I was stirred up by you, and the wine can't be drunk, since you came, don't think about leaving, accompany me back to Jingyu Temple to continue drinking, let's go."

Seeing that Wu Daozi casually threw a handful of money on the table, he immediately dragged Du Shiyi away, and the guy who was used to him didn't think it was angry, and although the others were curious about who Wu Daozi's acquaintance was, they were reluctant to put down the good wine at hand after all, and they didn't move the nest when they danced on the stage.

After walking a stone's throw along the cross street from the orchid wine shop, Wu Daozi let go of the sleeve that was pulling Du Shiyi, looked around and said in a low voice: "Du Changshi, you are really Yaxing, you just returned to Beijing and went to this wine shop to mingle?" Do you know that something big happened, Li Wei, the king of Xin'an, went to see Bixia yesterday afternoon, and Bixia took him back to Nanxun Palace. He sued Yu Wenrong fiercely"

The ridicule in front of Du Shiyi smiled, but when he heard the latter sentence, his heart suddenly jumped, and he immediately gestured at Wu Tianqi. And Wu Tianqi, who was still annoyed that this companion was not a haode today, immediately woke up with a spirit, and was busy looking around like a cruising sentinel, for fear that someone would pass by, or that there was a beggar hiding on the side of the road, and eavesdropped on this terrible word.

"How could Mr. Wu know about such a big event?"

"It was I who was ordered to paint a Buddha statue in the Nanxun Hall yesterday, but I drank a jar of imperial wine and fell asleep drunk. I vaguely heard Bixia come in and was furious, saying that Yuwen Rong was so bold that he dared to frame my humerus general" Wu Daozi saw that Du Shiyi's face was already gloomy, so he lowered his voice and said, "Later, Bixia went out, and I deliberately closed my eyes and slept for a while before I came back." Of course, I didn't mention that to anyone, you were the first. Thinking about it, you were only recalled because of Yu Wenrong's words, and you always care about this matter. ”

Du Shiyi couldn't help but smile bitterly. Everyone thinks that Wu Daozi is outstanding in painting, but he never pays attention to state affairs, plus he has good wine like his life, and he has been wandering in front of the emperor, so most people do not avoid him, and they don't know how many secrets he has heard. And he was able to get such key news from his mouth in advance, and that paint and ink were a great contribution back then. Otherwise, Wu Daozi is not so easy to speak

"Mr. Wu, thank you for your kindness......" Du Shiyi didn't finish speaking, but he saw Wu Daozi looking at him with a smile, and he said bluntly, "The newly made musk moon is for Mr. Wu to use for one year."

"It's pretty much the same" Wu Daozi immediately smiled, glanced left and right, and lowered his voice and said, "You just need to know it yourself, but don't remind Yu Wenrong." This matter must be noticed, if there is a disturbance, it will implicate you. In short, he is him, you are you, don't give people a chance

In the initial moment, Du Shiyi had the idea of letting someone notify Yu Wenrong, but before Wu Daozi could remind him, he had already woken up. If Yu Wenrong is the one who listens to persuasion, he needs to remind him now? At this point, all he can do is to deal with the aftermath, to deal with the aftermath of Yuwenrong, who was so full of ambition that he got carried away after worshipping the prime minister, and at the same time to clean up the aftermath for himself.

Since he was dragged out by Wu Daozi, even if he was in the wine shop just now, he had to accompany him back to Jingyu Temple, and he lingered for more than an hour before returning to his private house. As soon as he entered the study, he looked at Wu Tianqi and said, "Today's matter, don't reveal half a word, even to your grandfather." ”

"Yes, yes, I saved." Wu Tianqi originally only mentioned his throat in his heart, and all that was circulating in his mind were unpleasant thoughts such as extinguishing his mouth, but he really landed at this moment, and he nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice.

Seeing that Wu Tianqi was already frightened, Du Shiyi gently tapped the desk with his fingers, and his brain spun rapidly.

At the moment of major events, what should he do to not lose his safety?
