Chapter 9 Wooden Hairpins
The bookshelves of the bookstore are very high, and the upper floors are beyond the reach of ordinary people, so you need to tell the bookstore to bring a wooden ladder to take it off. www.biquge.info Of course, there are not many people who like to read and understand those books, which are either profound or remote, and who like to read and understand.
As soon as Zhao Dagongzi went upstairs, he was happy, he pulled Liu Xiaogongzi, and raised his chin to signal him to look to the left.
Liu Xiaogongzi turned his head inexplicably, snorted, and laughed. caused the eldest prince Xie to look over here, and when he saw it, he immediately grinned.
A young man in a light purple brocade robe, a little short, a little thin, about twelve or thirteen years old, jumping and jumping, was trying to reach a big book on the shelf, but the bookshelf was really a little high, he couldn't reach it, and he jumped so red-faced, the book still stayed firmly on the shelf.
Probably hearing footsteps and laughter, the boy was even more anxious. In a hurry, he hit the bookshelf, his feet were crooked, and his body fell to the side.
"Little brother, beware!" Grand Master Xie hurriedly stepped forward to support the young man.
The young man stood firm, turned his head and thanked: "Thank you, brother!" Xiaosheng is polite. ”
Turning his head, the three of them were stunned, this little boy is also too delicate, with thin eyebrows, black and shiny eyes, a small nose, red lips, and white and greasy skin revealing a light red. I think Liu Xiaogongzi is also a famous beautiful boy in the capital, compared with this little boy, it doesn't seem to be so delicate!
"Here's it, take it!" Zhao Dagongzi took a long step, reached out and took the book from the bookshelf, and handed it to the young man.
Liu Xiaogongzi squinted at it, it was a geographical chronicle, as if it was about the geographical customs of the Three Kingdoms.
"Thank you, brothers," the boy looked a little shy, "Xie Gui said goodbye." After saying that, he hurried downstairs.
"Liu Si, the title of a beautiful boy is about to give way." Zhao Dagongzi hooked Liu Xiaogongzi's shoulders and squeezed his eyebrows.
Liu Xiaogongzi glanced at him, "Go, go, who is the beautiful boy!" This son still wants to go to the battlefield with General Xie to kill the enemy. ”
Zhao Dagongzi smiled, "You weak scholar still want to go to the battlefield, is your old grandmother approving it?" As he spoke, he went to take the eldest son of Xie on his back again, "I said, Xie Laosan, mention it to your father, take me with you next time." ”
"Hey," Zhao Dagongzi took a blank seat, "Xie Laosan, what are you doing?" ”
I saw that Grand Master Xie bent down to pick up something from the ground.
"What is it?" Liu Xiaogongzi also walked over curiously.
"A hairpin, a wooden hairpin." Xie Dagongzi stretched out his hand, a sandalwood hairpin lying in his hand, the hairpin may be often touched, it looks very smooth, one end is engraved with two peach blossoms, one big and one small, the big one is very delicate, the small one seems to be a little rough.
Liu Xiaogongzi touched the hairpin and said: "This little red sandalwood is not cheap, how to do it so poorly, it is really a tyrannical thing!" ”
Grand Master Xie was stunned, he stared at the hairpin in his hand, without blinking, and suddenly picked up the hairpin and walked to the window.
Zhao Dagongzi and Liu Xiaogongzi were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed.
"Sure enough, sure enough, it's the hairpin." Grand Master Xie stood by the window, looked carefully behind the hairpin, and muttered to himself.
"What about the little boy? This should have been dropped by him, what about people? As if he had come to his senses, Mr. Xie chased him downstairs. Zhao Liu and the others also hurriedly followed.
The three of them walked downstairs, and the young figure was long gone.
Mr. Xie was in a hurry and wanted to chase him out of the yard. Liu Xiaogongzi grabbed him, "Third brother, don't worry, ask the little guy here." ”
"Yes, come on, third." Grand Prince Zhao strode to the counter and asked, "What about the little boy in the light purple brocade robe just now?" Do you know him?"
The little girl in Tsing Yi replied respectfully: "If you go back to the son, the son has already left the bookstore." After thinking about it, the little girl in Tsing Yi said again: "That boy seems to be here for the first time, but it's ......."
"But what, you say." Zhao Dagongzi stretched out his hand and put a small piece of silver on the counter.
"Thank you, Childe," the little man in Tsing Yi smiled and put away the silver, "That little boy was with us when he came in, and the shopkeeper Li must know him." ”
"Oh, where is the shopkeeper Li?" The eldest prince Xie had calmed down at this time, and when he heard that the little prince was accompanied by the shopkeeper of the bookstore, he was even more calm.
"The shopkeeper is on the third floor," the little guy in Tsing Yi said earnestly, "or the little one will take you sons to see the shopkeeper." ”
Grand Master Xie nodded, so the three of them walked upstairs with the little girl in Tsing Yi.
On the third floor, it was the room where Xiao He had just gone out.
Bang bang, the little guy in Tsing Yi knocked lightly on the door. "Shopkeeper, there are three sons looking for you."
"Please come in!" A young man's voice could be heard inside.
The little guy in Tsing Yi pushed open the door and invited the three of them in. Then he withdrew and closed the door.
The three of them looked at each other and nodded, and they all felt that this shopkeeper was quite a big person, looking at the people under them, this rule was also comparable to the nobles of the capital.
"The three sons, please sit down, Li is making tea, I have neglected you." A handsome man with a slightly wheat-colored complexion sat behind the table, at this time, the water was boiling, he washed the cup neatly, poured his head back to the tea, and quickly filled the teapot with water, and poured it into the four celadon cups on the table.
After distributing the tea, Shopkeeper Li stood up and gave a salute. "Forgive me, please sit down and have a cup of tea."
"Shopkeeper Li is polite," the three of them sat down, and the eldest prince Xie hugged his fists and said, "Under Xie Chen, if you have something to inquire about, I hope that the shopkeeper Li will not hesitate to help." ”
"Although Gongzi Xie opened his mouth, he was lucky to be able to help." Li Da shopkeeper smiled, looking at the three of the "Four Sons of Beijing" face to face, sure enough, they are the dragons and phoenixes among people, Zhao Huaqi is awe-inspiring, Xie Chen is elegant and graceful, and the youngest Liu Shihao is handsome and pure, well, I don't know how amazing Qi Moyun, the most famous of the four sons, has an amazing demeanor.
"This is the best rock tea on the top of Wuyi Mountain, please taste it for the three sons." Li Xinyuan was invited to hold the cup.
Liu Xiaogongzi was greatly surprised, raised his glass and took a sip, closed his eyes and tasted it, and then sighed: "Sure enough, the tea is good, it seems to be purer and more fragrant than the tribute tea, good!" It's not in vain! ”
Zhao Dagongzi is not good at tasting tea, but he only feels that it is extremely comfortable to drink it in one gulp, so he stroked his palms and laughed: "The shopkeeper Li is a man of temperament, Xie Laosan, what the hell is going on with you today, come on, I am in a hurry to kill Uncle Ben." ”
Li Xinyuan looked at Xie Chen with a smile.
"I want to ask the shopkeeper Li about someone," Xie Chen looked at Li Xinyuan and said, "I don't know who the little boy who came in with the shopkeeper Li today is, and I want to ask him about something." ”
"Thank you," Li Xinyuan said in his heart, it really made the girl expect, this Xie Chen really knew the sandalwood hairpin. "Oh, by the way, he left a note," Li Xinyuan stood up, took out a piece of paper from the cabinet behind him, and handed it to Xie Chen, "He said to give this note to the person who inquired about him today." ”
Xie Chen took the note, looked at Zhao Dagongzi, and then looked at Liu Xiaogongzi, and the three of them looked very cautious.
Obviously, this person named Xie Gui came prepared, and he was looking for Xie Chen, but how did he know that Xie Chen would come to Chengqi Bookstore today? Xie Chen didn't know that he was temporarily dragged by Zhao Dagongzi. Also, does Xie Chen know this hairpin?
Xie Chen's heart froze, and his eyes looking at Li Xinyuan were full of vigilance, this Li Da shopkeeper was only afraid that he was also a conspirator or an insider.
Li Xinyuan smiled, sure enough, there are so many handsome men in the capital, just look at these three.
"Don't worry, I don't know what the specific matter is, but I know that Xie Guixie has no malicious intentions," Li Xinyuan paused, "It seems that he came to the capital to look for relatives." ”
Xie Chen and the others stared at Li Xinyuan for a long time, and when they saw that he was still calm and unflustered, they looked at the note.
On the big paper, there are two lines of small letters written in a decent manner.
Three days later, Tianyi Pavilion waited for General Xie.
Thank you
The three of them looked at each other, speechless.
