They rested in the inn for a night, went downstairs to settle breakfast the next morning, and then set off to continue their journey.
It was too early, and there were not many people in the lobby. The shopkeeper was dialing the bill, the waiter was dozing off little by little, and the other guests were still asleep in the room.
When Ji Yue and Wei Lian went downstairs, the shopkeeper looked up and greeted: "The two guests are coming down so early."
Ji Yue sat down at a table: "I want two bowls of porridge and four buns."
"Okay." The shopkeeper knocked the guy on the head, "Go and ask the chef to get up and work, two bowls of porridge and four buns."
The guy was sleeping soundly, and he was awakened without any hesitation, and his expression was a little muted: "Oh... OK."
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and went to the kitchen to inform him.
Soon, the steaming porridge and buns were brought up, and the guy said, "Come and use it slowly." Then he put down the things.
Wei Lian picked up the chopsticks and was about to use them. The shopkeeper finished peeling the abacus and sighed: "I was not able to make ends meet yesterday. Business is in a downturn these days. Xiao Du, please inform me that the salary this month will be slow for a few more days..."
The guy said "ah" and said sadly: "Shopkeeper, our salary has been reduced by two cents last month. I still have to support my mother. I can't take it any longer."
When Wei Lian heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "I saw that the business in the lobby was very lively last night, why did the shopkeeper not make ends meet?"
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said, "Is the guest official not a member of Chu?"
Wei Lian smiled.
He was a prince of Chu. He only entered Qin for half a year and traveled to the old place again, but was considered not from Chu.
He asked, "How can I see it?"
"Some day ago, our Chu State and Qin State fought a war." The shopkeeper said, "War is useless to the people and money, and the economy is already depressed. If it weren't for the young master's consumption... Alas, I don't know when it will be better."
At first, Wei Lian heard his name from someone else's mouth, and his expression moved slightly: "What?"
"Young Master has taken away Qin State, and we will stop the war for the time being." The shopkeeper was angry when he said this, "But Your Majesty doesn't want to rest and recuperate. Instead, he wants to build a crystal palace, a golden lotus platform for Wu Ji. The entire lotus platform is made of pure gold and built on the water surface. Wu Ji wants to dance on it. As soon as the war was completed, the national treasury was empty, so where can I get the extra money? The court issued an order to increase the national tax to 50%... 50% tax! We ordinary people have tightened their belts to live, so how can we afford it? In the past few months, many shops have gone bankrupt. I am a century-old brand, passed down from my grandfather's generation, and now it is a lot of hardships... Your Majesty is doing this, alas!"
The shopkeeper spitted bitter water and poured it over and over again. The guy was so scared that he winked wildly: "Shopkeeper, stop talking!"
I am talking nonsense about Your Majesty, and the government knew that he wanted to be beheaded!
Wu Ji is the new love of the King of Chu and is a concubine who is very good at dancing. The King of Chu has always been absurd in terms of beauty, but now he is still so ignorant of the juncture, that is not ridiculous but stupid.
Under heavy taxes, the people complain, but protest is useless and will be suppressed by force by officers and soldiers.
Wei Lian frowned. The taxes of Qin were 10% and the taxes of Chu were 50%. It was really... too high.
If the State of Chu continues like this, it will sooner or later perish.
What was his father thinking?
-
"Oh." The delicate female voice was creepy and familiar.
Lin Yan'er was wearing a purple dress, with her shoulders exposed and her lotus arms, her fingernails with bright red elixir on her hands, and twisted her waist down from the stairs.
She is beautiful and is indeed a beauty. At the age of twenty-five, she is more charming than cardamom girl.
This kind of dressing is like an ordinary person who must be stingy when he sees it, but he is also greedy and sexual. At least last night, half of the men's eyes in the lobby were stuck to her.
Wei Lian had only one idea.
After that, she actually changed into purple clothes.
Because of the Queen Mother's first, Ji Yue hates purple the most. Faced with this color, his patience value will drop sharply and his anger value will rise sharply. If Lin Yan'er teases him at this time, he will not know whether Ji Yue hits a woman or not, and he is afraid that Ji Yue will turn his anger into desire and vent his fire on him.
Now that there are only two of them in the lobby, it is impossible for Lin Yan'er to provoke them.
When Lin Yan'er saw Wei Lian, her eyes lit up: "Your husband got up so early, so he is so destined to be with me. Do you mind sitting here?"
As he said this, Lin Yan'er sat down naturally.
She stopped thinking about Wei Lian. She didn't want any man she wanted, so she didn't have to put a master on a broken sleeve. But when she saw the lively broken sleeve for the first time in her life, Lin Yan'er was very curious.
Her eyes were shining with a breath called gossip.
The young man in white had not spoken yet, and the young man in red wearing a mask said coldly: "Mind."
Lin Yan'er smiled and said, "Don't be angry, little brother, sister won't compete with you for a man."
The young man in red: "That's not what you said yesterday."
Wei Lian glanced at Ji Yue strangely.
Did Ji Yue realize that he had naturally accepted the identity setting of his little brother?
"The two had a happy night?" Lin Yan'er, a female version of the flower picking thief, has always had no moral integrity. The questions are more explicit than the other. "Is the little brother comfortable? Is this gentleman good at bed skills? How many times can he have in a night?"
Ji Yue's patience was quickly disappearing, saying one by one: "Do you, what's the matter?"
"It's so jealous." Lin Yan'er slapped her nose, "I'm just curious. I haven't seen a living broken sleeve yet."
Wei Lian asked: "Miss has seen a dead girl?"
Lin Yan'er smiled so hard that she fell back and forth: "Langjun is such an interesting person. Of course, I have only seen it in books."
Wei Lian really started chatting with her: "What kind of book is that kind of book girl?"
Lin Yan'er said inexplicably: "You don't understand."
You don't know how to eat the joy of the love of the gods.
The couple in front of me are so cute, gentle and exiled immortal attack and arrogant and explosive hair...
Wei Lian was stared at Lin Yan'er's gaze and was frightened, but he continued to ask: "The girl is very fragrant, I don't know..." What kind of spice is used?
However, before he could ask, Ji Yue put down his chopsticks expressionlessly.
There was a terrifying air conditioning all over his body.
Wei Lian had no doubt that Ji Yue was brewing an atmosphere of turning the table and leaving.
Or maybe it is a bit more ruthless, creating a murderous atmosphere.
Wei Lian silently swallowed the inquiry words and whispered: "Don't be angry."
Ji Yue laughed sarcastically: "Ha."
Wei Lian pulled his sleeves, his ears slightly red: "Husband..."
He had a thin face and had tried his best to call him with such a call.
It’s really shameful to shout like this in front of outsiders!
Ji Yue was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the young man's shy look with his head down. His heart was filled with depression and suddenly he felt refreshed.
"I'll deal with you tonight." Ji Yue specifically let Lin Yan'er on the other side hear this sentence as if he swore sovereignty.
"Let's go." Ji Yue stood up and strode out of the inn gate.
Wei Lian quickly packed up his things and followed.
Leaving Lin Yan'er alone, her expression dull and confused.
She had been stunned twice in two days.
The first time I was shocked that the two were a couple.
The second time was that she was shocked that she was actually standing against her.
...The young man in white, who was like a cold and banished immortal, actually shyly called his little brother in red, his irritable hair and irritable hair.???
The little brother also said to deal with him tonight???
God, this is actually for the next year.
A little exciting.

Ji Yue walked quickly, Wei Lian was behind him, stuffing his luggage while chasing him: "Wait for me!"
Ji Yue lowered his eyes and stopped.
Wei Lian walked up to him and complained softly: "What are you doing when you walk so fast?"
"I don't walk so fast, can you see how happy you are?" Ji Yue said coldly.
Wei Lian paused and said helplessly: "I just think...she and Melna have some similarities."
Ji Yue said lightly: "The same people have seen countless people?"
"No." Wei Lian shook his head, "It's the fragrance on her body."
It's exactly the same as Melna.
There is also that outfit, the women in the Central Plains are probably not so bold. However, the people in Liang State are open-minded, and women like to expose their skin.
The only prompt they were looking for the man who made the spell this time was Melna. Wei Lian's resurrection pill was obtained from Melna, so of course they cared about all the clues related to it.
In the final analysis, what he cared about was Ji Yue.
"The Liang Kingdom produces spices and has trade with various countries." Ji Yue's expression was a little slow, "It's not surprising that the same fragrance is smoked."
Wei Lian said: "But I smelled thousands of spices from Liang Kingdom one by one, and none of them tasted this."
