53. Sleeve into the king's light heart

Inside the box of the Drunk Immortal building.

Ever since Lou Yefeng went upstairs, Pei Nianyu didn't have the heart to eat the unpalatable food on the table, and his eyes were only on his family's Ye Feng.

Seeing that the beads of sweat on his forehead were still unstoppable after he sat down, he couldn't help but feel distressed, and quickly took out the veil from his bosom, pressed it lightly, and wiped off the sweat for him:

"This winter...why do you sweat so much, be careful to be blown by the wind."

"It's okay, just now, my subordinates were not good at light work, and couldn't find the trace of the master, so I couldn't help but feel a little anxious..."

Pei Nianyu was silent.Naturally, he could imagine how powerless Lou Yefeng felt when he was standing in the crowd on the street just now, but because he couldn't keep up with his lightness kung fu, he could only watch himself go away, so he couldn't help but feel even more apologetic:

"I'm self-willed..."

Lou Yefeng's mind was fixed, but the master's cuffs with a light gardenia fragrance brushed in front of his face, and the master wiped it himself, so he couldn't sit still, so he quickly reached out his hand and held it firmly.Caught the master's palm:

"Master! Don't bother you... The subordinates can come by themselves..."

Lou Yefeng's palm had a wide skeleton, and he easily stopped Pei Nianyu's hand.Pei Nianyu's hands were covered with warm palms, and he was so happy that he took the initiative to eat his own tofu, where would he take it out?

So he just shoved back his hand calmly, and stuffed the handkerchief into his palm:

"Then do it yourself."

It was only now that Lou Yefeng realized what he had done, he couldn't help feeling slightly embarrassed, and quickly let go.Pei Nianyu chuckled a few times in his heart, thinking to himself, what reason can he find next time to make him eat his own tofu...

Seeing his master in a daze for a while, Lou Yefeng took the initiative to change the topic:

"Why did the owner remember to enter this Drunk Immortal building?"

Pei Nianyu raised his eyebrows:

"Seeing that this restaurant is built in style...you can come in casually, why, do you have an explanation?"

Lou Yefeng pursed his lips and smiled:

"The owner doesn't know, this Drunk Immortal building... Not long ago, Old He was cheated once in this house."

Pei Nianyu was startled:

"Not long ago? Was it... before the big kitchen in the mansion was rectified?"

"That's right, during that time...you just started to indulge in cooking, and Old He was on duty at night, and he couldn't get enough of your cooking during the day, which was a pity for a long time. Later, I always heard Jiang Xue and the others discussing your cooking,Fearing that I was greedy, I ran out to find something delicious when I was taking a bath."

When he said this, Pei Nianyu seemed to think that there was such a thing. Someone had mentioned it before.

"Then...how could he still be tricked?"

Not to mention that He Qi's identity as the leader of the shadow guards is here, and even a black shop with a big background will have to weigh his weight.As far as He Qi himself is concerned... he is not a pure and good person, and he has a lot of eyes.

Therefore, Pei Nianyu became very curious.

"It can't be considered a scam... It was like this at the time. You were obsessed with making boiled cabbage in those days. Old He asked when he entered the door, 'Do you have boiled cabbage here'? This person from Drunk Immortal building is also arrogant, patting his chest and sayingRegardless of the cabbage, their Drunk Immortal building is the best. This is the most authentic Drunk Immortal building in Capital City..."

Pei Nianyu pouted:

"This kind of thing... can you say nonsense?"

The Drunk Immortal building is located in a bustling traffic artery in the capital, and it receives quite a few distinguished officials on weekdays, so it is natural to be somewhat arrogant.But in this capital city... To be honest, which restaurant can open a boom without any influence behind it?

A big tongue is not afraid of flashing wind.Generally speaking, there is no such a saying for attracting customers. For those children of 4-9 City, these shop assistants dare not report the name of the dishes like this.

It is estimated that He Qi is alone, the clothes are not amazing, he looks like a lone ranger from other places who came to Capital City for the first time, that's why he dared to be so...foolish?

Hmm... Isn't this a typical one who specializes in plucking wool from outsiders?

Pei Nianyu suddenly laughed, it was exactly the same as some Capital City restaurants he knew in his previous life.

"and then?"

"Old He spent eight taels of silver, and after a while, the shop assistant brought a pot of boiled cabbage in a serious manner, and then there was nothing else."

"..."

The boiled cabbage cooked by Pei Nianyu is a serious Sichuan dish for the state banquet, and it takes nearly ten hours to hang it for all kinds of broth.How could the cook of this Drunk Immortal building know that this dish with such a simple name is actually so complicated to make.

Pei Nianyu smiled and said:

"Who is Old He? He doesn't put on an official air. Anyway, he is a third-rank military post. How can ordinary businessmen dare to mess with him? If he insists on pretending to be an individual in the rivers and lakes in a low-key manner, he simply writes on his forehead, 'People are stupid and money comes quickly'"Well. By the way, he spent eight taels of silver to buy a pot of boiled cabbage, but he didn’t lift the table on the spot?”

Lou Yefeng shook his head:

"Old He, who follows the rules, wouldn't do such a thing. It's just that he was so angry that he poured bitterness on his subordinates after returning home. That's why I knew about it."

Pei Nianyu laughed.

This matter, although it is not a particularly tricky method, but this Drunk Immortal building is obviously not very authentic, and it dares to sell eight taels of silver...

His subordinates sulked here for no reason, and Pei Nianyu, who had always been defensive, began to feel uneasy.

He looked up at the magnificent interior of the restaurant, and asked casually:

"This Drunk Immortal building... I don't know who opened it. It's located in this area, attracting customers from all over the world. I guess it can make a lot of money a year."

Lou Yefeng naturally knew what the master meant:

"Which restaurant in Capital City doesn't have a name behind it... But it's all out of the owner's eyes. Why, the master wants to say this for Old He? Do you need to be subordinate..."

Pei Nianyu glared at him:

"Nonsense, how could this king do such a thing of collusion between government and businessmen and malicious strife?"

After a pause, a very gentle smile appeared on the corner of Pei Nianyu's mouth:

"I just want to open a restaurant opposite the Drunk Immortal building..."

Lou Yefeng: "..."

With the level of his master, Pei Nianyu opened a restaurant himself, which had to close down the Drunk Immortal building in a few months?

Lou Yefeng suddenly felt that the master was too busy and panicked...

"That `s a deal."

With a snap, Pei Nianyu put down the teacup in his hand, took out a few silver ingots and threw them on the table, and wanted to leave when he got up - there was really nothing to miss about the dishes in this dilapidated restaurant.

When the two went out, Pei Nianyu turned left and right, wanting to see if there were any suitable shops around the Drunk Immortal building.

The Drunk Immortal building occupies the largest area at the corner of this intersection, so there are not many shops facing each other on the street corner.Pei Nianyu looked at it for a long time, and found that the dim sum shop diagonally across the corner seemed to be in a good location, the size of the shop was not small, and the layout of the house seemed to be exactly what he wanted.

Pei Nianyu walked in and took a look. The signboard hanging at the door of this pastry shop was simple and old. It had four large characters "Chen Ji Pastry" written on it, and half of the paint on the words had fallen off.There are several rows of shelves at the entrance and in the store, and the snacks on them...seem...not very tasty.There are many types, but it seems a little stale.

Entering the store, behind the counter, there was an old man with long beard who was lying on the recliner leisurely, closing his eyes and taking a nap.The quiet small shop is deserted, and even if passers-by stop by occasionally, they will leave in a hurry after seeing the not-so-fresh snacks on the shelves.

This was obviously poor management. Seeing this, Pei Nianyu couldn't help feeling a little more confident.

He was always too lazy to go around in circles, so he stepped forward, knocked on the counter with his fan, and explained the purpose of his visit to the old man in a very pleasant manner:

"Shopkeeper, do you sell this dim sum shop?"

The old man woke up from a light sleep with great difficulty, looked at him with sleepy eyes, seemed to react for a long time, and then said tremblingly:

"what did you say"

"..."

Pei Nianyu was helpless, the old people's deafness was normal, so he had to repeat it again.Unexpectedly, the old man seemed to be frightened, he hurriedly waved his hands:

"Don't...don't...don't sell it!..."

Pei Nianyu is persuasive and persuasive:

"Old man, you see I have three times more silver..."

"Not for sale! ... not for sale!"

The old man caught sight of Lou Yefeng's martial attire, his eyes immediately frightened, he waved them away:

"Go, you guys go... don't sell it!..."

Pei Nianyu: "..."

The old man looked afraid that the shop would be robbed, as if Pei Nianyu was some vicious bully.

What the hell!

Because he is very self-cultivated, he couldn't help but want to scold people at this time, he just asked a casual question, how could he feel like facing a big enemy?He will not buy and sell by force...

Pei Nianyu knew that there was no way to continue the conversation no matter what, so he dragged Lou Yefeng to escape. The two stood in the street, looking at each other in embarrassment.

"Hey, master, this guy..."

Pei Nianyu is completely unable to make any sense of the matter, maybe this shop has some special meaning to him...

He looked at the shops nearby, and found that they were much smaller in depth than this one. It was okay to sell lo-mei or something, but it was not good to be a restaurant.

Pei Nianyu could only sigh:

"Forget it, let's go back to the mansion first, and go to another place to see each other another day."

Lou Yefeng asked softly:

"Master, you can just ask Director Gao to help you find out. Besides, don't we already have several shops in Capital City in our mansion, can't you just embezzle one?"

Pei Nianyu shook his head:

"The few shops in the mansion are all selling the Four Treasures of the Study, antiques of calligraphy and painting, and incense. They are all near the Xicheng Book Market, and none of them can be used as restaurants."

"As for Director Gao... let him inquire, he naturally has channels to find a suitable shop, but his channels... the news spread, so it will be like opening this restaurant in the name of the palace. I willBut if you want to be the chef yourself, you don’t want to be crowded into the shop by people who don’t want to do it every day.”

"... also good."

……………………

Two days after returning home, Lou Yefeng's custom-made exclusive weapon for his master was finally ready, and Pei Nianyu watched him open a long box with some expectation.

"Master, let's see, is the size of this fan still handy?"

This fan was deliberately made by Lou Yefeng to imitate the size of the owner's most used fan, Pei Nianyu knew it as soon as he got started, and couldn't help feeling that his Ye Feng was really careful.

"Hey, what kind of material is this...?"

The ribs of this folding fan are dark brown, the shape is thin and straight, and the temperament is calm, which is very suitable for him.The side of the fan is carved with simple and smooth lines, which looks very pleasing to the eye.

He thought it was made of wood, but the tentacles felt a little cold. They were neither gold nor jade, but they were extremely hard and heavy in his hands.

Pei Nianyu threw it up, caught it again, and threw it up again, enjoying himself.Then can't help but be a little stunned:

"It's so heavy, it hurts to hit someone with it directly..."

Lou Yefeng's brows and eyes were calm as usual:

"This is natural. This subordinate used the black corundum treasured in the mansion to create it for you. Master, if you pour your internal energy into it, even your skull can be smashed..."

"..."

Pei Nianyu froze his movements. Looking at this simple and elegant folding fan, he imagined the scene of smashing someone's skull into pieces, and then shivered.

His family, Ye Feng... was really fierce.

Shaking his head, Pei Nianyu swung the fan inward quickly.

"Huh... no fans?"

The folding fan was pressed extremely tightly when it was closed, so he didn't notice that there was no fan surface on the fan bones.

"Of course this is waiting for the master to write it himself."

"Hmm... will the material of the fan affect the weapon?"

Lou Yefeng shook his head:

"No. The organs are all in the fan bones, you can choose any fan... Of course, if you use a paper fan, and the fan is torn due to internal force during the fight, that's normal."

Pei Nianyu: "..."

In the end, he still asked people to go to the treasury to fetch a stack of gold silk satin that he couldn't remember when the palace rewarded him.This golden silk satin is as white as plain snow on the outside, and embedded with gold threads, it is extremely soft and tough.There are no other problems except that it is not easy to ink.

Pei Nianyu was full of interest, and quickly cut a section of the fan by himself, then looked at the two curved blank satin panels and meditated:

"What would you like to draw..."

Lou Yefeng was a little puzzled:

"The master's Danqing skills are well-known throughout the Da Jing Shilin. No matter what the subject matter is, he can master it. Even a random painting is a masterpiece."

Pei Nianyu shook his head:

"This is my only personal weapon, how can I draw it casually?"

After thinking for a moment, Pei Nianyu suddenly smiled:

"Yes."

Immediately, he picked up the pen and dropped the ink, and the heavy ink was scattered on the satin surface wantonly.Lou Yefeng looked intently, and saw that from the side of the fan, several steep peaks and cliffs gradually appeared in the master's pen.Although the strokes are few, but the mood is full.

Although he doesn't know calligraphy and painting, but he can feel the vague and desolate and simple artistic conception in this painting, and he couldn't help admiring a few words:

"This freehand landscape is indeed the master's best..."

Pei Nianyu laughed in an unclear tone.

As more and more pens were written in the golden silk satin, Lou Yefeng gradually felt familiar, and slightly frowned:

"This... seems to be the Wind Drinking Cliff on the border of Cloud Province?"

"Well, you have good eyesight."

When Pei Nianyu was the fourth prince, several princes were sent to various states and counties for training.At that time, he was not favored, so naturally he was not assigned to any rich place.

Although Saibei was bitterly cold, Pei Nianyu didn't take it seriously.What's more... Now that think about it, the days of supporting each other in Yunzhou and his family, Ye Feng, became the catalyst for their relationship to warm up...

Lou Yefeng felt something was wrong in his heart, he became a little nervous for some reason.His intuition was very accurate, as expected, the next moment Pei Nianyu turned his brush and sketched a figure on the high platform of the cliff.

Wearing black clothes and long hair, facing the cliff with a sword in his arms, the cloak just made of hunted sable fur flutters with the wind behind him...

But who is it if it is not himself?

The brows and eyes of this figure are sparse and firm, and the stern sword intent on his body seems to have merged with the surrounding rugged mountains and rocks, as if it is exactly the same as the scene back then, and even the artistic conception is even better.

The pen falls, the painting is completed.

Pei Nianyu looked at the fan and put away the pen with great satisfaction.

"My Ye Feng is really beautiful."

"........."

Lou Yefeng stared at the golden silk satin, tightened his fingertips suddenly, and heard the words of the master's half-smile in his ears, his cheeks blushed completely.

"This this……"

Lou Yefeng looked at the self in the painting, and then at the master's gentle and lingering eyes. It took him a while to calm down his heartbeat, and protested:

"Master, there is no one like you. It is not auspicious to paint the scenery of Saibei with a close-fitting fan."

Pei Nianyu said seriously:

"Since it's a close-fitting fan, of course I can only paint my Ye Feng. How can I paint other things? Why, you want me to carry someone else's portrait with me?"

As if to emphasize, Pei Nianyu picked up the fan, stroked the cold fan bones with his slender fingers, with a fascinated expression:

"To be honest, bringing Ye Feng by my side... I feel more secure... I won't panic when facing the enemy."

Lou Yefeng stared at the master's fingers and gently played with the fan back and forth, he didn't know what he thought of, his face that had just calmed down suddenly turned red again.

Pei Nianyu played for a long time, and finally put the fan in his arms with great care.

"That's it. Tomorrow I'll paste the batter on the fan."

"...I... will go to the kitchen to find something to eat."

Lou Yefeng's ears turned red, and he ran away.

Pei Nianyu pursed his lips, smiled without saying a word.

………………

Not long after Lou Yefeng left here, He Qi knocked on the door suddenly, saying that he had something to report, but after entering, he looked around furtively.

"Is your guy there?"

Pei Nianyu was very satisfied with the statement "your guy", but he raised his eyebrows first and asked:

"Going to eat, why, why do you have to avoid him?"

He Qi's face was a bit indescribable:

"This matter has something to do with him, so naturally I will report it to you secretly."
