In autumn without sunshine, night always comes earlier.

In the plum garden in Changyue Alley, the lights that had been extinguished for twenty years were lit up again this night.

The huge courtyard, which had been silent for twenty years, also became lively on this day.

Of course, the owner here is no longer the former Princess Yun'an, but the eldest son of the emperor, Li Chenan, who is now famous in Kyoto!

This man is very courageous. He just moved to Meiyuan, and before his butt is even hot, he actually hired a guy from the Prime Minister's Mansion next door!

This time, it is said that the houses in the Prime Minister's Mansion did not collapse, but from the thick smoke billowing over the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was feared that some houses were on fire under the fireworks.

Now this pair of enemies, both of whom are extremely powerful, live next to each other... Changyue Alley will probably become even more lively in the future.

After this news spread from Changyue Alley, not long after, this alley near the Xianyun Teahouse at the east end was suddenly filled with tea drinkers.

Especially the private rooms on the second floor facing the street.

Sitting in the private room on the second floor, through the window, you can see the octagonal pavilion in the middle of the street and alley, and naturally you can also see the Plum Garden and the Prime Minister's Mansion opposite.

People are looking forward to the second fireworks blooming in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and want to witness the brilliant scene of the fireworks with their own eyes, but for some reason, since the fireworks exploded in the afternoon, Meiyuan has not thrown another one towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

A firework.

On the contrary, on the wall adjacent to the Plum Garden and the Prime Minister's Mansion, thick smoke billowed out from the huge and bizarre chimney.

The smoke was as black as ink at first.

But after a while, it turned into a puff of green smoke...

Under the gentle autumn wind, the green smoke curled around the courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Of course, some of it spread into Changyue Alley and smelled it in the noses of these neighborhood tea drinkers.

The smell is familiar.

Not very pleasant.

Somewhat pungent.

It's the smell of burning charcoal in winter.

For heating in winter, even wealthy families use heaters. This plum garden actually built such a big chimney... Does heating require such a huge amount of effort?

No one knows what it is.

They weren't too curious about it.

It was already getting late since we couldn't wait for another fireworks, so we had to go back to our homes.

As a result, the tea guests upstairs regretfully went downstairs and walked in Changyue Alley. When they arrived at the Bajiao Pavilion, they suddenly saw the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion open.

Many people rushed out of it!

These people held their noses, coughed and choked, and even burst into tears.

Immediately afterwards, a voice came from the Prime Minister's Mansion: "I was smoked to death!"

"Go to the east courtyard quickly!"

What happened?

Someone looked at the sky above the Prime Minister's Mansion, and saw the green smoke swirling in the autumn wind... wonderful!

Master Xiao Li changed his fire attack to smoke attack!

That’s what it means to be smoky and burning!

This smoke is no better than fire, it can't kill Ji Thief, but if it keeps queuing to the Prime Minister's Mansion all day long, it will probably be more uncomfortable for him than if it kills Ji Thief!

As a result, the Octagonal Pavilion was filled with people.

After a while, dozens more evil slaves rushed out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. They waved sticks and drove out these increasingly emboldened people.

Another voice came from the Prime Minister's Mansion: "Let the dogs out...! Kill these damn untouchables!"

"Where's the dog...bring Chang Wei out to me...!"

The dog didn't come out after all.

The fierce-looking nursing home leader suddenly shrugged his nose. There was actually a hint of wonderful meat smell in the pungent smoke!

…

…

"Although it's still a little early for the winter solstice, it seems to be colder this year than before."

There is a big pot standing in the courtyard of the west courtyard of Meiyuan.

There was a raging fire under the pot, thick smoke billowing from the pot, and the pot was boiling.

Wang Zheng Haoxuan swallowed his saliva, looked at Li Chenan and Zhong Li Ruoshui who were sitting next to him, and said: "The reason why this thing is called fragrant meat is because it is really fragrant!"

"When I was working at Mushan Knife, in order to stew this shit, I took the master's dog to the back mountain, just to avoid being smelled by the master."

"The fragrance spreads ten miles away, this is no joke."

Amu listened silently to Wang Zhenghaoxuan's words, glanced at him silently, silently took a pair of long chopsticks newly cut from bamboo, put them into the pot, poked the meat in the pot, and said two words

Character:

"It's cooked!"

At this moment, a girl floated into the moon gate.

She is Xiao Shisanniang.

She flew to Wang Zhenghaoxuan's side, stretched out her hand to roast on the bonfire, shrugged her little nose, and asked curiously: "What is this stew?"

"dog!"

“…dogs are so cute,”

She also took a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece without politeness, blew on it and put it in her mouth, her cheeks bulging, and after a moment, her eyes lit up, "Dogs are not only cute, but their meat is so delicious!"

"

"……nonsense!"

"Come on, come on, eat this one, and I'll go to the Imperial City Department to get another one in a few days."

Li Chenan gave Zhongli Ruoshui a piece and said in a low voice: "This stuff is yang in nature. If you are afraid of cold, it will be good to eat it."

Xiao Wu seemed to struggle in his heart for a moment, but he finally stretched out his chopsticks, and then got out of control.

The pot of fragrant pork was all eaten up in a moment, not even a mouthful of soup was left.

It was only then that Xiao Shisanniang reported to Li Chenan:

"Senior Sister, they will come to Meiyuan early tomorrow morning... Fortunately, they did not come with me, otherwise each of them would only have one bite... Senior An has taken the rest of the people and left Shuiyun Mountain according to your wishes.

Those knives, and those jars."

"By the way, the master gave us a letter."

Li Chenan was startled, "What did she say?"

"She said she also left Wanxi Zhai and was heading to Kyoto."

"...did you say when it would arrive?"

"No," Xiao Shisanniang shook her head, "Master, she has a lazy temperament. That donkey walks very slowly. It will probably take winter to get here."

Wang Zhenghaoxuan turned to Xiao Shisanniang, "Your master? She has also left the mountain?"

Xiao Shisanniang raised her eyebrows, "Do you think my master is like your master?"

"My master is so young! She is only twenty years old now, okay!"

Wang Zhenghaoxuan raised his beautiful eyebrows, thinking that his master once said that Wan Xizhai was not actually a Jianghu sect, or could only be considered half of a Jianghu sect.

Because Wanxi Zhai not only accepts female disciples, the key is that Wanxi Zhai has never participated in the disputes between Jianghu and Jianghu for hundreds of years since its establishment.

In other words, the disciples of Wanxi Zhai are all indifferent to the world.

But now they have all left the mountain, even their master has run away, and all of them have taken refuge in Li Chenan... Does this count as being independent from the world?

Xiao Shisanniang finished the last sip of soup in the bowl, took out her handkerchief, wiped her mouth, and said again:

"The master also said in the letter that she found that many people from the Jianghu were coming to Kyoto."

"Among them, there are several masters from the White Clothes Alliance."

"In addition, she also met an exotic beggar carrying a bow!"

Li Chenan didn't quite understand Jianghu affairs. Amu frowned and asked, "Bei Beggar Zuoqiu is unknown?"
Chapter completed!
