At one o'clock in the morning, the sky was as dark as ink.
A maid holding a gauze lantern looked at Li Qinglin. She seemed to smell something foul and subconsciously waved it in front of her nose, then pushed him out of the courtyard to wait.
Li Qinglin stood outside the yard with a blank expression on his face, carrying a wooden barrel on his shoulder.
The palace is indeed a wealthy family, even the toilet is built like a mansion.
There is a large bed decorated with exquisite crimson gauze, a special maid holding a sachet in her hand, and a landscape painting by a famous artist hanging in front of the squatting position.
After finishing using the toilet, the maid would bring the toilet token and wipe the toilet herself.
Li Qinglin even heard that some families in the inner city had the habit of keeping beautiful women.
Li Qinglin was deeply moved by what rich people really know how to have fun.
After collecting from this one, there is also that one.
After leaving Zhao Zhonglang's house, Li Qinglin walked along the bluestone road, winding his way to the next house.
There were few people on the road at this time. The occasional three or two figures passing by would immediately hide far away and cover their mouths and noses when they saw Li Qinglin's outfit.
Li Qinglin didn't care about it, and was even thinking about the various essentials of the Five Directions Heavenly Will Sword.
When he got excited, he turned his right hand into a knife and gestured with it.
Gradually, many exotic flowers appeared on both sides of the road, and the breeze blowing through the neat green bamboos made a rustling sound.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Knock on the door gently a few times.
The door did not open. Instead, a nearly pure white cat suddenly jumped out from the wall. It was agile and moved like a flash of silver lightning, and was about to escape into the night.
"Huh? Xiao Feilian escaped!"
From behind the door, a woman's anxious cry could be faintly heard.
Li Qinglin's eyes changed, and he moved towards the wall, grabbing the little flying beast with his right hand! The cat reacted very quickly. Seeing Li Qinglin's action, it twisted its body in the air, like a big gun, using the side wall to gain momentum and trying to slip away.
Li Qinglin smiled slightly, but his speed was three points faster than Xiao Feilian. He raised his left hand which had been prepared for a long time! "Meow!"
Xiao Feilian shouted angrily, but Li Qinglin pinched the back of his neck. He immediately became obedient, with his tail tucked between his buttocks.
squeak!
The door opened with a bang, and a woman appeared.
Miao Miao's clothes were a little messy. She was only wearing plain clothes under her winter coat. Her pink face was flushed due to the excitement of blood.
She was a little panicky at first, but when she saw the small flying chain in Li Qinglin's hand, her panic immediately dissipated.
"Li Qinglin?"
Miao Miao held Xiao Feilian in both hands, somewhat surprised by Li Qinglin's night-time outfit.
"Come, go into the yard and have a cup of ginger tea to warm yourself up."
Miao Miao pulled Li Qinglin's sleeve with some gratitude.
"No, I still..."
"Miao Miao, are there any guests?"
Li Qinglin was about to refuse when he heard a clear female voice coming from behind the door, deep in the quiet courtyard.
Miao Miao heard this and replied loudly, "Third Grandma, this is a friend of mine. He just helped me catch that bad guy Xiao Feilian!"
"Oh? In that case, why don't you invite this...cat-catching hero to come in and sit down?"
Miao Miao heard this and turned around, smiling brightly, pretending to welcome a guest, "Third Grandma invites you, you can't refuse now, right?"
Li Qinglin had no choice but to put down the dung bucket on his shoulder and follow Miao Miao forward.
The courtyard is very deep and winding.
At the end of the path is a bamboo house with an ordinary layout but elegant details.
At this time, on the stairs, in the bamboo building, there was a woman whose age was almost unknown. She had skin as smooth as jade, eyes as bright as autumn water, pink and red lips, and a slightly plump figure. Her white ankles were exposed, and a pair of gold ropes were tied around her ankles.
She just sat there leaning against the chair with a blanket covering her legs and a few cats crawling around her feet.
A fire was burning faintly, emitting a light sandalwood scent.
Laziness applies to both the cats and the woman.
In this situation, a sentence suddenly emerged in Li Qinglin's mind.
"The firewood in the stream is soft and the felt is warm, so my cat and I will not go out."
Covered with a blanket, warming myself by the fire and petting the cat.
This is a fairy-like day.
For the first time, Li Qinglin felt a little ashamed of himself. He smelled the faint smell of filth on his body and suddenly became a little embarrassed.
A thought came to my mind.
However, among the cats, there was a very pig-like orange cat who looked up suspiciously and sniffed Li Qinglin's scent.
Somehow, it seemed to become a little anxious and began to lick its fur frantically.
Third Grandma glanced at the orange cat suspiciously and smelled a faint stench coming from Li Qinglin's direction, but her lazy expression did not change at all.
Miao Miao carried Xiao Feilian into the bamboo house and locked him in a cage as a punishment, muttering something about him being a little bad boy, and he was restless all night.
"Alas, the cat is ignorant. Miaomiao, why bother getting angry with it?"
Third Grandma smiled and said a few words of comfort. She looked at Li Qinglin with a gentle gaze, as if she could see his embarrassment.
"Get my ginger tea and give it to this chivalrous cat-cat-catching hero."
Miao Miao responded, and after a moment, she walked down the stairs and handed Li Qinglin a porcelain bowl.
The ginger tea is warm in the mouth, and becomes spicy and fishy as it flows down the throat.

"call……"
Li Qinglin exhaled a breath of hot air, and after drinking a cup of ginger tea, he felt his body warm and even broke out in a sweat.
"I heard Miaomiao calling your name just now. I guess you're the Li Qinglin she mentioned to me, the one who made a name for himself in just one month and will be surpassed by you if he doesn't work harder, right?"
"Third Grandma!"
When Miao Miao saw the woman exposing her shortcomings, she glared at her.
About to be surpassed? Well, it has already been surpassed.
Li Qinglin laughed and answered a few polite questions from Third Grandma.
The cold wind blew the fine snow into the bamboo forest.
The rustling sound makes people sleepy.
Third Grandma yawned, like a cat stretching lazily, showing off her proud figure. Then she said with a look of sending the guest away, "I'm tired. I have to go to the opera house in the afternoon, so I need to catch up on some sleep. Qinglin, go and do your own thing. We'll talk some other day."
Watching Third Grandma's figure disappear in the bamboo building, Li Qinglin was sent out by Miao Miao.
"Here! This is the face towel given to you by Third Grandma! Wear it. If you smell this filthy smell every day, you will get used to it!"
Miao Miao handed Li Qinglin a face towel that looked like silk or satin. It was two inches square, finely crafted, and light black in color. The surface exuded a faint bamboo fragrance, which immediately dispelled the stench on Li Qinglin's body.
"Third Grandma goes to the theater every afternoon at 3 p.m., not because she dislikes you on purpose.
By the way, I heard about your story with Manager Wang. We are all cat lovers. If you really can’t stand it, come to Third Grandma and I’ll say a few good words for you!
"Third Grandma is a soft-hearted person. If you persuade her a few times, she will definitely make the decision for you!"
Miao Miao acted like a big sister. She stood on tiptoe and patted Li Qinglin on the shoulder in a familiar manner.
Li Qinglin accepted the scarf and thanked Miao Miao, only then he realized that there was already something in the dung bucket.
He looked at Miao Miao, whose figure was gradually shrinking in the gap of the door, and smiled gently.
…
back door.
Li Qinglin took out a copper coin from his bag and handed it to the tenant farmer who was also pouring night incense across from him.
The man accepted it with a look of surprise, thinking happily,
"This guy must be stupid! With just this little effort, he only needs to pick up the night fragrance, walk out the back door, go to the corner a dozen steps away, and give the night fragrance to Qingjiaotou!
Can I make money from this?"
Li Qinglin watched the man carrying his dung bucket out of the back door and glanced around outside the door.
Didn't see any strange figures.
It was obvious that the charcoal seller a few days ago had bad intentions, and I'm afraid he was plotting something shameful.
The oppressive feeling that the charcoal seller gave to Li Qinglin was no less than that given by those people in the Ministry of Personnel.
What was the intention of such a person, who was disguised as a charcoal seller and wandering outside the palace? ! Although Li Qinglin had long thought of leaving the palace.
But at this moment, I feel that I am a nostalgic person and there is no need to leave in such a hurry.
Wang’s house is also very good.
But that Steward Wang...
Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent flashed across Li Qinglin's eyes.
Manager Wang, you are about to die!
