After eating, after almost resting, Yu Zimo asked Qing Yao to settle the bill, and then the three of them went downstairs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Master, are we going back to Ishihara Street?" Qing Yao asked, the princess went shopping, and she wouldn't stop until she finished shopping.
Yu Zimo didn't answer immediately, she looked up at the sky, it was almost dusk, "Forget it, tomorrow, now you accompany me to another place." ”
"Princess, no, master, where are you going?" Chang Ming sighed, saying that this princess had only been in Shangdu for a few days, so she seemed to be very familiar with Shangdu. Chang Ming was puzzled.
"You'll find out when you go. Yu Zimo said.
The Shang country is no better than the Xin country, and it will be dangerous for the princess to walk around like this. Changming wanted to continue to say something, but Qing Yao secretly pulled him next to him and signaled him not to say much. Changming swallowed back what he said, shut up, and said that he would listen to the princess's arrangement.
Yu Zimo was quite satisfied with the attitude shown by the two.
So, Qing Yao Changming set off with the princess, and when the three of them passed through Shiyuan Street, Yu Zimo suddenly stopped. It's only a few steps to get there?Changming looked back at the restaurant not far behind him. No, after he saw the princess stop, his eyes kept staring at a place in Ishihara Street, and he and Qing Yao also followed the princess's gaze. They saw a man in a purple robe and a gold belt, dressed in a luxurious garment, walking into an inconspicuous shop in Ishihara Street. That was Xiao Bogong's younger brother Xiao Changyu. This is the capital of Shang, it is not strange that Xiao Changyu appears here, the strange thing is that the man who followed him closely behind him - the man was about forty years old, with a knife body and a knife face, thin eyebrows, a thin beard, and a black slender cloth robe dragging from his shoulders to the ground.
This Xiao Changyu has always been arrogant, self-regarding, and has very high requirements for himself and the people around him, how could he take such a strange person out. Qing Yao looked at it and said strangely.
"Looking at this man's appearance, he doesn't look like a person from the royal court. Changming said. The guards who enter the palace and the palace are all carefully selected, and their appearance and skills are top-notch.
"Not only is he not from the palace, but he is also not from the Shang country. Yu Zimo's eyes gathered together and said coldly.
The shop that Xiao Changyu entered, they had also been to before, was a shop that sold rare medicinal materials
"What are they doing at the herb shop?" Changming wondered.
"Of course, when I come to the herb shop, I buy herbs. Qing Yao said.
"A prince doesn't need to come out to buy medicinal herbs in person. ”
Yu Zimo looked at it for a while, "Ignore them first, let's go to where we want to go first." With that, she withdrew her gaze and continued walking.
They walked through a few streets and alleys, and walked for a long time, and the sun had sunk in the west, and they were about to leave the city if they walked any further. Changming was anxious and didn't dare to ask. Finally, he followed the princess into an alley where there was a stone temple. He thought that the princess was going to worship the gods, but who knows, the princess passed through the temple gate and did not enter, along the temple wall, and walked to the back of the temple. Behind the temple is a vacant lot, surrounded by the walls of several courtyards, hidden and secluded. In the middle of this clearing, not far from the temple wall, there is an elm tree with huge branches. Under the tree sat cross-legged a beautiful young man in Tsing Yi, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate. This is the god on the temple, or is it a young man from whose family, how can he sit here.
Yu Zimo didn't speak, and walked to the young man. The young man opened his eyes slightly, saw Yu Zimo coming, and hurriedly got up and bowed. Startled Changming and Qing Yao.
"Get up. Yu Zimo didn't care and said lightly.
"With the grace of the princess, I can live here in peace. What are the orders of the princess this time?" the young man did not get up, but leaned down and spoke. The difference between Changming and Qing Yao, this young man actually knows the identity of the princess.
"Get up and speak. Yu Zimo said.
Only then did the young man get up from the ground and stand obediently in front of Yu Zimo.
"I'll give you a month, and you can find out all the people who are here, find out who they are, and what they are here for. ”
"Do as I am told. ”
"And. Yu Zimo pointed to Chang Ming and Qing Yao beside him, "You remember the two of them, if there is something and I can't come to you in person, I will send the two of them to pass the word." ”
"Yes. The young man looked at Chang Ming and Qing Yao with his slender eyes. I look like I remember you until I die. It can be seen that the two of them are a little hairy.
Who is this young man? The princess wants to investigate the people of the country and tell the local officials, how can they look for him? Changming stared at the young man with a wary gaze, this young man was very beautiful, so beautiful that he made him hairy.
"These two bottles of wine are for you, enough for you to drink for a while. Yu Zimo asked Changming to give the flower carving to the young man.
The young man's eyes narrowed into a line, took the wine, and hugged it in his arms like a baby, "Thank you, princess." ”
……
On the way back, Changming secretly asked Qing Yao when the princess knew such a strange person.
Qing Yao shook her head, she had never heard this young man and never heard the princess mention it.
"What are you doing next to the princess?" Chang Ming blamed Qing Yao.
"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even have a chance to follow the princess. Qing Yao said angrily.
"In my opinion, he should have met the princess during the time when she came to Shangguo alone. Chang Ming said, "This young man is beautiful and close to a demon." I don't know if it will be bad for the princess. ”
"Judging by his attitude towards the princess just now, it probably won't be. Qing Yao said.
"You don't know him, how do you know you won't. Changming said, "I always think this thing is weird. ”
"There are a lot of weird things around the princess, and it's not bad for this one. ”
"There's something weird, why don't you report it to the eldest prince. ”
"I am the princess's maid. ”
"You're irresponsible. If something happens to the princess one day, can you be responsible?"
Qing Yao was speechless, letting her be sharp, and she couldn't answer the rest of the words.
……
When they returned to the inn, it was already dark. There was a group of people standing outside the inn. In two days, it will be the princess's wedding day. The Shang people sent over all the things they wanted to use, and there were a few bewitching women, saying that they had come to choose jewelry for the princess and dress up.
Yu Zimo frowned, and asked Qing Yao to send them back, saying that Xin Guo had already brought relevant people here, and they were not needed.
When these people heard that they were allowed to go back, they were also very embarrassed, saying that it was the order of the king of Shang, and they did not dare to disobey it. Qing Yao talked for a long time, but they insisted on refusing to leave. Helpless, Qing Yao asked the princess.
Yu Zimo listened to it and said lightly, telling them that if they insisted on staying here to annoy me, on the wedding day, I would regret the marriage on the spot, on the grounds that they had offended me. Ask them which order they dare not disobey more.
"This kind of thing can't be joked about. Changming listened to it and was startled.
"Am I joking?" Yu Zimo glanced at him.
No way......
Qing Yao relayed the princess's words to the merchants outside the door, and they looked at each other after listening, weighed them, and after some discussion, they didn't say a word and left in disgrace.
After they left, the courtyard of the post house was extremely empty and silent......
