133 My Heart (Part 2)
"I will not give up even if I die!" Li Jinglong frowned slightly and said seriously.
He said, seemingly hesitantly, "Your Highness..."
"But what's so embarrassing?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter, now you are the hero, haha." He said, smiling again, "As long as it's not too taboo, I can tolerate you."
"My lord, if you let yourself go wild with ginseng..." Li Jinglong peeked at Zhu Yunxi's face and said carefully.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "What's this? In the past, you ignored your official status and got a state body. What did you say?"
Li Jinglong laughed twice, but his eyes were somewhat distracted.

Coming out of Lezhizhai, Li Jinglong still looked half-dead.
As soon as I walked out of the palace gate and before I got on my horse, I saw a civil servant getting out of the carriage opposite.
"Old Li!"
"Piss off!"
It turned out that the person Li Jinglong met was no one else, but Xie Jin, a Hanlin scholar.
Li Jinglong looked at the other party in surprise, because the other party was wearing the clothes of a third-grade civil servant.
"Have you been promoted?" Li Jinglong asked.
Xie Jin smiled happily and said, "It's thanks to your blessing that I went to Liaodong once to convey the decree. After I came back, I was edited by the Hanlin Academy and directly became the Zuo Du Yushi of the Inspectorate!"
"Well, he is a serious official!"
For a duke like Li Jinglong, he doesn't even pay attention to even the six powerful ministers, let alone a left governor censor. They are just some scholars who talk all day long, write articles and curse, and are plagued by it.
.
The so-called Yanguan is just an official who the emperor gave charity to these stinky scholars in order to give them something to do. If we rely on them to sell their mouths for important national affairs, it is better to rely on the pimps to sell their butts.
Xie Jin was also quite surprised to see that Li Jinglong didn't mean to congratulate him. In his impression, Li Jinglong was a person who always talked to people. If he had seen him promoted in the past, he would have set up several tables of wine on the Qinhuai River to congratulate him.
"Brother Li, what's wrong with you? Why are you so preoccupied?" Xie Jin looked at the palace entrance and saw many people coming in and out, so he pulled Li Jinglong aside and whispered, "But you were scolded by the emperor's grandson?"
"What is the relationship between His Highness and I? His Highness is willing to scold me?" Li Jinglong was displeased and said, "I'm thinking..." As he said that, he looked around and said, "Hey, there's something on my mind!"
"What's going on in your heart that makes you so worried?" Xie Jin thought about it, "Can you tell me about it?"
"It just so happens that I really need someone to advise me on this matter!" Li Jinglong also nodded.
"Let's go, there is an attacking girl at the entrance of the alley next to Chang'an Street..."
Before Xie Jin finished speaking, he heard Li Jinglong say, "Hey, those places are too expensive. Let's find a cheap one. There is a bacon restaurant in the back street of Nancheng that's pretty good. Let's go and have a drink!"
As he said that, he patted the other party on the shoulder, causing the thin Jie Jin to stagger.
~~~~~
"Where the hell is this?"
After arriving at the place, Xie Jin almost cursed.
Now he and Li Jinglong have changed into casual clothes, but even in ordinary clothes, they look out of place in this store.
To say it is a shop is to flatter this place, which is just a simple straw shed with a few greasy tables, chairs and benches in the room.
There was a big pot outside, with all kinds of meat tumbling inside, and there was a stinking smell of large intestine in the air.
"Ugh!" Xie Jin felt a little uncomfortable.
Li Jinglong, on the other hand, walked to the pot as if no one else was around and pointed at the pot with the boss, probably talking about the kind of meat he wanted.
"Sit down!" After choosing the meat, Li Jinglong pulled Xie Jin to sit down, "Don't look at this place, it tastes pretty good."
"You've never been to a place like this before, right?" Xie Jin looked at the oil-stained twists on the table and said in a low voice without daring to do anything.
Li Jinglong paused slightly, then smiled and said, "It used to be before, and now it is now. The me before was so damn pretentious." As he said that, he looked around the store, "This store has been around for a long time. When I was a child, I
Dad comes often. There are also King Qianning, Mr. Mao and others!"
"Later, when I grew up, I never came here again!"
Seeing him like this, Xie Jin couldn't say much.
At this time, the boss came up with a plate of cut large intestines and threw it on the table.
"After these days of being out, I figured it out. Men have to be so rough!" Li Jinglong continued with a smile, "Eat!"
Xie Jin looked at the large intestine full of fat with disgust and grinned, "Well... I've had a bad stomach these days, so I won't eat such greasy food!" He continued,
"Lao Li, don't you have something on your mind? Tell me quickly!"
Li Jinglong threw a piece of fat into his mouth, took a few more bites of green onions, and said, "I promise others something!"
"You always keep your promises!" Xie Jin said with a smile, "Why is this so difficult!"
"I felt relaxed when I agreed to this matter. But now it's very difficult to do it!" Li Jinglong said seriously.
"How difficult is it?" Xie Jin asked curiously.
"It's so hard that it will make me bankrupt!" Li Jinglong whispered, biting the fat intestines fiercely.
Now Xie Jin was even more curious and said with a smile, "Who doesn't know that Duke Cao Guo is so rich!" He said with a low smile, "The treasures your old man stole back then were enough for your family to squander for several generations!"
"The key is that I have a small family, and I promised others things, but tens of thousands of people came together!" Li Jinglong sighed.
"What needs tens of thousands of people?" Xie Jin asked in shock.
