Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 256 Hu Meiren Clears Heat and Detoxifies Xu Lin

After a stick of incense.

Hu Meiren arrived at the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

Xu Lin had just finished soaking his feet and was thinking about who would serve him tonight.

Upon seeing Hu Meiren, Yingge immediately went to Xu Lin's bedroom.

"Hu Meiren?"

Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly.

Then Yingge brought Hu Meiren in.

Before long, Hu Meiren strode up to Xu Lin.

"How did you get out?"

Xu Lin asked curiously.

After speaking, he stared intently at Hu Meiren.

Hu Meiren was wearing a dark purple long dress, which, though called a long dress, was more like a cheongsam from later times, perfectly showcasing her exquisite figure!

“Zhi En brought me out.”

"Han An can barely find a place to stay, yet he wants to take care of me?"

Hu Meiren covered her mouth and smiled.

After saying that, she lifted her skirt and walked towards Xu Lin.

Then she sat sideways on Xu Lin's lap.

"It's been several days since we last met. Have you missed me, sir?"

Hu Meiren gently stroked Xu Lin's beard and asked.

Xu Lin's beard was still very short, but she really liked the feel of it!
"What do you say?"

Xu Lin asked back with a smile.

Then he pulled Hu Meiren into his arms.

……

Half an hour later.

Hu Meiren swept her cascading hair back.

"Is it tasty?"

Seeing that Hu Meiren was still not satisfied, Xu Lin asked.

"It was delicious."

"I used to hate this smell."

"But for some reason, I've been liking it more and more lately!"

Hu Meiren answered while wiping her mouth.

Then, after tidying up his clothes, he left Xu Lin's room.

Han An is still alive, so she has to go back tonight.

If she doesn't return home overnight, Han An will surely be furious when he finds out.

If Han Anruo suddenly died, it would take away a lot of fun!

Thinking of this, Hu Meiren smiled sweetly and returned to the Han residence with Zhi'en.

……

Ten days later.

Xin Zilanxuan opens.

After learning that Xu Lin was the mastermind behind Xin Zilanxuan, Li Si, Han Fei, Zhang Liang and others went to Xin Zilanxuan to show their support.

The place was bustling with noise, and every seat was taken.

Although the location of Xin Zilanxuan is not very good, traffic jams still occurred.

"As the Minister of Justice, you have many responsibilities."

"Let's go back first."

Seeing that Li Si was getting drunk, Xu Lin spoke up.

"it is good."

Li Si nodded.

He then drank the remaining orchid wine in the bottle and left Xin Zilanxuan.

After Li Si walked away, Xu Lin turned his attention to Han Fei, who was drinking tea instead of wine.

Han Fei didn't not want to drink, but he couldn't.

Seeing Li Si drinking one cup after another, Xu Lin was getting increasingly anxious!
"How effective is the medicine prescribed by Mr. Nian Duan?"

Xu Lin asked.

“Excellent!”

"I estimate he'll be fully recovered next month!"

Han Fei could not hide his joy.

He hasn't had a proper drink in ages!
After he finished drinking the medicine that Nian Duan had prescribed, he wanted to drink with Zhang Liang until they were completely drunk!
"Follow your doctor's advice carefully until you are fully recovered."

Xu Lin reminded.

Han Fei nodded.

Then he pointed to the wine vessel in his hand. Although the wine vessel he was using was very nice, it contained tea, not wine!

"You and Zifang have been doing well lately."

"The Qin Dynasty has a clear system of rewards and punishments. I believe it won't be long before you and Zifang rise to the highest ranks of the court."

"It's getting late, you should go back too."

Xu Lin said seriously.

"it is good."

Zhang Liang nodded.

Then he stood up and bowed to Xu Lin.

Then he left Xin Zilanxuan with Han Fei.

After Han Fei and Zhang Liang left, Xu Lin also chased away the remaining Shadow Guards.

After the Shadow Guard's high-ranking officials left, Xin Zilanxuan gradually returned to normal. Only then did Zi Nu have time to come to the third floor to drink with Xu Lin.

"Thanks to you today, sir."

"If it weren't for you, Li Tingwei, Han Fei, and the others coming, how could this have happened..."

Zi Nu expressed her gratitude.

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xu Lin.

"I am the person behind Xin Zilanxuan. 30% of Xin Zilanxuan's future profits will be mine."

"Even the boss's wife will be mine in the future, how could I not come?"

Xu Lin teased.

Who is yours?

Zi Nu gave Xu Lin a look that was both coquettish and reproachful.

I was referring to the future.

Xu Lin explained.

After he finished speaking, he clinked wine cups with Zi Nu.

"Not in the future either."

Zi Nu whispered.

Xu Lin ignored him and took a big gulp of orchid wine.

Seeing that Xu Lin's cheeks were turning red from drinking, Zi Nu took the wine pot from Xu Lin's hand and replaced it with a pot of tea.

Xin Zilanxuan sells not only wine, but also tea.

Previously, very few people in Xianyang drank tea. I don't know if it was Xu Lin who started it, but recently many people have come to enjoy drinking tea.

Drinking tea is not only inexpensive, but it also won't interfere with your work, so it's a win-win situation!
Xu Lin took the teacup and couldn't help but let out a burp.

How many people come to drink tea?

Xu Lin asked.

"About 30%."

"I thought it would be at most 10%, but I didn't expect it to be so much."

The woman with purple legs pressed together answered.

Xu Lin was also surprised to hear this. It turned out that 30% of them were here to drink tea.
After a moment of contemplation, he retrieved the tea-frying method that the system had rewarded him with some time ago from his storage space and handed it to Zi Nu.

"This is?"

"Tea-frying method?"

Zi Nu took the book with both hands, her brows furrowed.

"Correct."

"Since so many people love drinking tea, we can use the method in the book to fry tea in the future."

Xu Lin nodded.

"it is good."

Zi Nu nodded slightly.

Then she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and focused her gaze on the contents of the book.

She had barely seen half a cup of tea when Xu Lin stopped her.

"There will be plenty of time to see it later, why rush it now?"

"I'll see after I leave."

Xu Lin said seriously.

After speaking, he stared intently at Zi Nu's delicate nose.

"Is there something on my face?"

Feeling Xu Lin's intense gaze, Zi Nu touched her face with her delicate, jade-like hand.

Xu Lin shook his head and took a sip of weak tea.

"Have you never thought about getting married?"

Xu Lin asked.

I will not get married until the world is unified.

Zi Nu smiled upon hearing this.

Xu Lin's implication was self-evident; she wasn't stupid, how could she not understand?
"Only one of the six states in Shandong was destroyed."

"Even if the unification of the world is fast, it will still take three to five years."

"How old will you be in three to five years?"

"By then you'll be an old maid, will anyone still be willing to marry you?"

Xu Lin teased.

Upon hearing this, the elegant Zi Nu raised her eyebrows and glared at Xu Lin.

How did you become an old maid?

Aren't Zhao Ji and Lady Hu both older than her?

I wonder who frequently visits Ganquan Palace and Hu Mansion!
"Then I won't get married."

"Anyway, I don't rely on men to support me."

Zi Nu placed her hands on her waist and straightened her chest.

"I still have to get married."

"It's perfectly fine to remarry after unifying the world!"

Xu Lin said gently.

Then he touched the Purple Maiden's wine cup.

He's good at making friends with beautiful women, so he's not in a hurry.

She says she will marry after unifying the world, but in reality, she may very well marry next year, or at least have a marital relationship with him!
Because plans can't keep up with changes!
Things don't always go as planned; that's a common occurrence in life!
Don't you remember when Honglian said in Xinzheng that she would give it to Ji Wuye after he died? And what happened?
He hadn't even made a move against Ji Wuye when Honglian gave it to him!
Thinking of this, Xu Lin smiled, placed his hand on Zi Nu's thigh, and patted it a few times.

I must say, the purple-clad woman's legs really feel great to the touch!

I wonder when Zi Nu’s jade-like legs will become his pillow?
