Chapter 134: Enemies Meet
"You don't have to worry about this layer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Anyway, I promise not to use it for men. ā
Qiu Shi raised his lips, and then took two pieces of spices from the maid's hand: "One here is ambergris, and the other is agarwood."
"You help me make sachet strings like yours, remember that the workmanship must be delicate and exquisite. And you need to give it to me in five days, will you?"
Shen Xi thought about it while holding her mandarin duck gouache teacup, and said with a smile: "Grandma's orders, I naturally can't disobey them." ā
As long as it's not for men.
However, it is clearly a sachet for a woman, but she has to be a spice commonly used by noble men in the fortress, and there must be something strange in it.
The war in the inner house is nothing more than a struggle for power, and of course she is interested in seeing this excitement.
When Qiu Shi heard this, he immediately laughed again: "I know that you are also an official lady, not an embroidery girl, this kind of thing should not be asked of you."
"But who made you clever enough to have such a good skill?
"Although you are a few years younger than me, I like you very much, and our old lady also likes this kind of ingenious person, if you are interested in the future, you can often come to our Han family. ā
The Han family is a big family, how can anyone come?
Even ordinary three or four life women, they don't necessarily want to come to the door!
Her Qiu family needs to rely on her to compete for favor in the Han family, and she who is from a third-grade official family definitely needs to convince her to climb the power and be noble, and she makes such an invitation, of course, it is equivalent to a return!
Shen Xi thanked him quietly.
"Grandma, the old lady heard that Miss Ning said that Miss Shen was visiting, so she sent someone to spread the word and asked Miss Shen to move to An Rong Hall to meet her. ā
I was drinking tea tacitly here, and suddenly a maid came in from outside the door.
Qiu Shi paused suddenly, and then looked at Shen Xi, somehow, his face, which was still floating with the spring breeze before, suddenly stagnated.
Shen Xi also froze.
Wen Chan didn't necessarily know that the Qiu clan had asked her to enter the mansion today, and the reason why she had such a word must be that Han Ning had brought her words.
When she achieved her goal, she looked back at Qiu: "This is really flattering." What should I do?"
Qiu Shi looked at the visitor: "Is that really what the old lady said?"
The maid lowered her head: "Exactly, the glass of An Rongtang is outside." ā
Qiu's eyebrows stood still for a long time, and suddenly he smiled, took Shen Xi's hand and said, "My sister is really a blessing!"
"Our old lady doesn't see visitors easily, so it can be seen that this is really good for the girl's blue eyes!-come, come with me!"
Her sister's call instantly brought her identity as the second young grandmother of the high family closer to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi stepped out of the door and calmly went to the corridor with her.
The two of them passed through the screen door here, passed through several verandahs under the moon cave door on the west side, and went in the direction of the upper room.
If you don't meet Wen Chan face to face, you will never be able to touch her bottom, so even if there is a disparity in strength, this meeting is extremely necessary.
Shen Xi looked at the house a little along the way, it was not a particularly regular quadrangle, there were verandahs extending on both sides, and it was estimated that it should have been expanded by buying the neighborhood's land in the later period.
There is also a small garden between the third and fourth entrances, and the two spacious courtyards in the northeast corner of the small garden are Anrong Hall.
There were already a number of maids standing under the door, and there were frequent laughter in the courtyard, and it seemed that there should be a lot of people.
Qiu Shi stopped and said, "It must be the girls." Then he pointed to her wrist and said, "Take this sachet off." ā
He didn't explain why, and Shen Xi didn't ask much. The sachet was untied and handed to Pearl, and then he followed her back into the courtyard.
In the main hall where laughter was heard, sat Wen Chan, who took her life.
It is said that when the enemy sees each other, his eyes are very red, but the person who did the bad thing is Wen Chan, not her Shen Xi, so she has nothing to be nervous about.
There is nothing to say about the way into the hospital, she has seen too much of this kind of pomp, Wen Chan is a whole palace, and she will not look twice.
However, since the Qiu clan entered the door of this An Rong Hall, the whole person gradually became solemn, and he was a lively person, but he followed the rules and became a puppet with his neck pinched.
It seems that this second grandmother is still a long way from the position of Wen Chan's confidant, so it is no wonder that she is so eager to compete for favor.
But when I think about it, Han Dun's status in the court is so high, but the Qiu clan is desperately stammering, and the person who never dares to make a mistake is not Han Dun's wife, her sister-in-law, but an old lady who has delegated power, which is quite intriguing.
Thinking about the two times she came to Han's house, she didn't hear them mention Hanton's wife, or his mother, Tang.
In other words, Han Dun's biological mother, Qiu's mother-in-law, and his wife who is married by a famous matchmaker, their power and influence in the mansion are actually not comparable to Wen Chan at all?
Shen Xi pondered in his heart, but he didn't delay for half a minute on his face.
The curtain of pearls the size of a grain of rice was lifted, and then she walked around the large screen of the colorful phoenix flying in the west, and at the first glance of the door, she saw several girls sitting in one place.
At the second glance, his gaze fell directly on the old woman sitting on the top brocade couch.
Even if Shen Xi had already made preparations, this glance really seemed to have directly spanned fifty years!
Wen Chan on the seat was half-leaning on the big pillow, holding a glass cup in her hand, facing Han Ning, who was sitting on the left, with a loving smile on her face.
At that time, the green silk had occasionally seen white, and under a half-new purple brocade embroidered silver tuanhua single coat, covered with a red horse-faced skirt.
The one she wears on her head is a little too particular about it when she was back then.
But the delicate facial features of the past have now become a deformed wheel corridor.
Even though the skin was still smooth and smooth, it was like a ripe peach, and the flesh had hung down and formed folds at the corners of the mouth and chin.
However, the eyes that glowed with a vicious cold light in the alley behind Xiangguo Temple were relatively bright, making her look several years younger at the age of sixty-six.
Shen Xi thought about it, it was actually only three months since he left this person, and when he suddenly saw that she was so old, he really couldn't take his eyes off it.
"Come in, girl. Qiu Shi greeted.
Shen Xi pursed his lips slightly, lowered his eyes and entered.
The moment Wen Chan raised her eyes, her gaze fell on her.
"Shen Xi, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, meet the old lady. ā
Shen Xi gave her a salute.
Wen Chan looked at her standing quietly in front of her with her head in front of her, and only raised her lips and beckoned for a long time: "Come and let me take a look." ā
As soon as she stretched out her hand, her sleeve slipped up, revealing a bracelet on her wrist.
I saw that the bracelet had a large glass bottom, and the green inside was like a green mountain, and there was a touch of dazzling red in the mountains!
This red was as dazzling as blood, and as hot as fire, just like the blood on the back of her hand when she saw it in the small alley that day, her eyes stinged!
