Chapter 124 Small gathering
Du Xiaoyue said, "Then I really need to think about it carefully. Sister, are Cao Xueqin and Jia Baoyu the same person?"
Mo Chou said, "Then how would I know?"
Du Xiaoyue said: "Brother Li said it wasn't, but I guess it must be."
Mo Chou said, "Then let's go back and ask Xiangyun. Then we'll know."
Du Xiaoyue said: "Yes, then let's go home quickly, drive."
Fukang'an led a group of people and rushed over.
"Xu..."
Both sides reined in their horses.
Du Xiaoyue said: "Sister, he is here to snatch Dream of the Red Chamber as well."
Mo Chou said, "Lord Mo gave the Dream of the Red Chamber to us. If it is stolen, how can we face Lord Mo?"
Fu Kangan said with a smile: "Hand over the box and you can leave."
Mo Chou said, "Xiao Yue, go through." Then she whipped the horse's butt hard.
The horse felt pain and rushed forward, and Fukangan fell to the ground.
He stood up and looked in the direction the two women left.
……
In the private room of the Lao Xingtai Restaurant, Heshen was anxiously waiting. Liu Quan hurried upstairs, bowed, and said, "Master Mo is here."
He Shen said, "Please come in."
Mo Li came upstairs and said, "Hey Huo Huo, and the master."
He Shen also stood up and said, "Master Mo."
Mo Li said, "Wait a long time."
He Shen said, "No, no."
Mo Li glanced at the food on the table and said, "Oh, how can I bear to spend so much money with my lord?"
He Shen laughed and said, "It's a waste of money. Look what you have. Lord Mo, please."
Mo Li said, "Please come in, sir."
The two sat down at the same time.
He Shen said, "I am deeply honored that Lord Mo has come to visit. The Emperor and the Empress Dowager have been on tour these days, and you and I have stayed in the capital on duty. As the Prime Minister, I should have invited Lord Mo to my house for a chat. But I have never had the opportunity. Moreover, Lord Mo was almost thrown into prison because of the lawsuit over Dream of the Red Chamber. It was truly unjust. This is a matter of both reason and friendship, and I should prepare a few glasses of wine to calm Lord Mo's nerves."
Mo Li said: "Okay, as long as this banquet with the adults is not to make fun of me." After saying that, he smiled brightly.
He Shen laughed and said, "What are you thinking? You and I serve in the same court, and it's really hard. We work hard for state affairs all day long, and it's rare for us to have a chance to get together. Today I even specially invited two girls to entertain us."
"Oh, okay. As long as Lord He doesn't hold a Hongmen Banquet today, I will be bold enough to drink a few more glasses with Lord He." Mo Li smiled after saying this.
Heshen said, "Okay," and clapped his hands twice.
Two women walked in, holding musical instruments in their hands, and said in unison, "Greetings, my lords." Then they bowed.
He Shen said, "Master Mo, these two girls are good at singing ditties. One is called Xiaoru and the other is called Chang'e. Master Mo, please choose one to help you with the singing."
Mo Li said, "Your Excellency has thought this through very carefully."
He Shen said, "How about we write a couplet as a gift, and one of the words or ideas must mention the name of the girl you have chosen?"
Mo Li said, "Then please go first, Master He."
He Shen said, "Master Mo, please go first."
Mo Li said, "Master He, please go first."
"Okay, then I'll tell you first. A short stay is best, as the spring in the small building is warm. If you can stay a little longer, then stay a little longer. Whatever you want, I will do as you please."
Mo Li took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Wonderful, really wonderful."
