"Young Master, Master Li is in the room, please go in! Whether you can buy a ticket depends on you."
The woman took the man to the door, said something, and left.
Cheng Jinxing raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Enter."
A hoarse voice sounded.
Cheng Jinxing was startled.
In his heart, Master Li is his aunt Hanyu's idol, and his voice should be as sweet as his aunt Hanyu's, like an oriole!
"Hello, Master Li, this kid is Cheng Jinxing!"
When Cheng Jinxing pushed the door open, he saw a woman in plain clothes, wearing a veil and with some white hair at her temples sitting on a futon. He walked up to her, bowed, and introduced himself.
"sit!"
Master Li pointed to the position opposite him.
She sat cross-legged on a futon. There was a small table in front of her and another futon opposite her. There was a tea set on the table and the tea in the cup was still steaming.
Cheng Jin sat down politely and looked at Master Li in front of him.
"You're a constable from the yamen. This is the first time in years that a constable from the yamen wants a ticket. Have some tea!"
Master Li looked at Cheng Jinxing, said something, and then asked him to have some tea.
"Thank you, Master Li!"
Cheng Jinxing picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it down.
He was a little anxious and wanted to know if he could buy a ticket given his conditions, but he didn't show it at all.
Although he is young, he is able to control his emotions in front of outsiders.
"You said you were asking for tickets for one of your aunts. Why didn't she come herself?"
Master Li asked after he put down his teacup.
"She's been here before, but Master, you said she didn't meet the requirements, so I thought I'd give it a try. Master, she really likes you, and she plays the piano beautifully."
Cheng Jin is walking on the road.
"The aunt you're talking about isn't your biological aunt, right? Judging from your address, the aunt you're talking about is the daughter of Prime Minister Xue?"
The corners of Master Li's mouth curled up sarcastically under her veil, but Cheng Jinxing couldn't see it.
"Since you know me, you should know that I sell tickets to people who can find the seats they're assigned to. Even if I sell it to you and you give it to her, she still won't be able to get in. Why bother?"
Without waiting for Cheng Jinxing to answer, Master Li spoke again.
"My brothers at the government office told me that Master Li has a very expensive ticket. If you can buy it, you can give it to someone else. So, I wanted to give it a try."
Cheng Jinxing replied.
"Brothers from your government office? I don't remember any constables coming to listen to my performance during my time in Yunzhou?"
Master Li did not deny what Cheng Jinxing said, but was a little surprised by what he said.
"She is indeed a friend of mine in the yamen. However, she arrived at the yamen less than a month earlier than I did. She is not from Taoyuan County either, but only arrived this year. She said that she had heard the master's performance with her master before, and that the ticket was given to her by someone her master knew."
Cheng Jinxing said truthfully.
Mingzhu told him this, otherwise, he wouldn't have been tempted to ask for a vote.
"I wonder what the name of the brother you are telling me is?"
Master Li pinched his palm with his hand in his sleeve, his tone still very calm.
"Mingzhu. It was Mingzhu who told me. Master Li, Mingzhu is indeed a brother of our yamen, but she is a girl, but we don't treat her as a girl. Her kung fu is very good, so I guess her master is also very powerful."
Cheng Jinxing replied.
"The moon is bright in the sky?"
