Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

A solitary lamp.

"This jujube and yam cake is the one mentioned in Dream of the Red Chamber." Mo Li said as he ate, "You guys should try it too."

Du Xiaoyue said: "I don't want to eat."

Mo Chou asked, "Master Mo, is this thing really written in Dream of the Red Chamber?"

Mo Li said, "I've written about it before. In the eleventh chapter of Dream of the Red Chamber, Wang Xifeng went to Ningguo Mansion to visit the sick Qin Keqing. Qin Keqing said, 'I ate two pieces of the jujube and yam cakes that the old lady gave me yesterday.' That's what she was talking about."

Mo Chou said, "Even this little detail in Cao Xueqin's book is so accurate."

Mo Li said, "Perhaps Mr. Xueqin also walked to a small stall like this on a night like this, savoring the food carefully under a solitary lamp, and conceived this magnificent masterpiece."

Mo Chou said, "Mr. Xueqin will taste the flavor of life in the flavor of the yam."

Mo Li said, “Yes.”

After saying that, he looked at Xiangyun and asked, "Miss Xiangyun, what did Heshen say before? I'm a little curious."

Xiangyun said, "Sir, I promised you to go and urge the Emperor to redress the injustice of Dream of the Red Chamber."

Li Qiye said, "I've said before that, among all the civil and military officials in the court, the only one with both knowledge and talent is Lord He. Miss Xiangyun's choice of Lord He is truly a foresighted person."

Xiangyun said, "Your Excellency is making fun of me. Heshen has changed his mind."

Mo Li said, "Heshen is unreliable. Don't be fooled by him."

Xiangyun said, "Xiangyun understands."

Mo Chou said, "Xiangyun, if you don't mind, you can live at Lord Mo's house."

Du Xiaoyue said: "Yes, there are still several empty rooms in Brother Li's house."

Xiangyun said, "Thank you. Xiangyun now has her own place to live."

Mo Li said, "Mo Chou, Xiao Yue, then let's send Miss Xiang Yun home."

Xiangyun said, "No need, sir. I'm used to being alone. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The three of them looked at Xiangyun's departing back.

"Let's go."

"Sister, sister, where are you going?"

Mo Chou did not respond, but followed Xiangyun closely, fearing that something might happen to Xiangyun.

Mo Li said, "Let's go." and left the scene with Du Xiaoyue.

……

Its daybreak.

There was a knock on the door outside the Mo Mansion.

Du Xiaoyue opened the door and found Xiangyun outside.

"Sister Xiangyun, it's you. Come so early." Du Xiaoyue said with a smile.

Xiangyun said, "Miss Xiaoyue, I just came from Liulichang. I want to ask Master Mo for some advice."

"Okay, I'll take you to the study, come." Du Xiaoyue brought Xiangyun to the study.

"Sir, Xiangyun is here." Du Xiaoyue said.

Mo Li said, "Oh, Miss Xiangyun." and stood up.

Xiangyun said, "Master Mo, I'd like to ask you, do you know where to buy those three antique calligraphy and paintings?"

Mo Li asked, "Which three?"

Xiangyun said, "These are the three antique calligraphy and paintings that Heshen mentioned."

Mo Li said, "Did Heshen mention this? Why don't I have any impression of it?"

Xiangyun said, "Maybe I forgot to tell you, Heshen said that in order to redress the injustice of Dream of the Red Chamber, we must find three antique calligraphy and paintings."

Mo Li nodded and said, "What are the three specifically?"

Xiangyun said: "Yes..."

Mo Li hummed and said, "I'm really sorry, Xiangyun, I don't know where to buy it."

Xiangyun said, "Your Excellency doesn't know either? I asked the people at Liulichang, and they don't have this either."

She swallowed and continued, "A shopkeeper told me that most of them are in the hands of princes and ministers."
