Chapter 006: Stealing Out of the Prince's Mansion
Since there are three more children in the other courtyard, Cheng Jingjing's little life has finally become much more interesting. Although the pen and the fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info San'er have a peerless face, their personality is seven or eight points similar to her, and they don't have the reserved sense of an ancient woman at all, the two jump up and down every day to have fun everywhere, and they have visited the fun places of the entire prince's mansion, and they also teased the baby cat of the dragon concubine to the pond to catch fish, and almost didn't make Wen Miao angry.
That night, the two climbed up to the roof of the courtyard together, and drank the wine they had stolen from the cellar.
"When is the bright moon? Ask the wine to the sky. β
Cheng Jingjing read a sentence of Su Shi's poem as soon as she came up, and scared San'er into a daze.
"Jingjing, I didn't expect you, a wild girl, to compose poetry."
"Cut, what do you know," Cheng Jingjing glanced at her and said, "I also went to nine years of compulsory education, took the college entrance examination, and went to university." β
"Why don't I understand what you're saying?" San'er quipped: "Could it be that you are an immortal who fell from the sky?" β
Who knew that Cheng Jingjing put down her wine glass, her expression was gloomy, as if she had been told something sad.
"You...... You okay? San'er leaned over worriedly.
Cheng Jingjing suddenly stood up with a snort and shouted at the moon: "I, Cheng Jingjing, must be the heroine in the future!" Female number one! Let everyone enjoy watching me act! β
Although San'er didn't understand what she was talking about, she was incited emotionally, and she also stood up and shouted excitedly: "My San'er must marry a wishful man I like in the future, don't marry that bad old man!" β
"How much do you hate that bad old man," Cheng Jingjing laughed: "Take me to see your 'fiancΓ©' another day, is it really that bad?" β
"Jingjing, don't laugh at me about this!" San'er punched her angrily, suddenly turned his eyes, and said: "The moon is white and the wind is clear tonight, and it is rare that it does not rain, why don't we go out over the wall to play?" β
Cheng Jingjing clapped her hands excitedly when she heard this: "I have long had this plan!" Since I came to this prince's mansion, I haven't been out, and last time I passed by Suzaku Street in a hurry, and I haven't touched anything delicious and fun. β
The two immediately hit it off, discussing that there was a small broken door in the backyard of King An's mansion, which was usually unguarded, so they climbed off the roof and ran over there without saying a word.
The little broken door was old and covered with cobwebs, but it still had a rusty copper lock. But this is not difficult for Cheng Jingjing and San'er, the two little demon kings of the mixed world, the two of them found a big stone from the grass, you and I will quickly, and the copper lock will be smashed open.
The two of them carefully bypassed the night patrol guards, and walked all the way to Suzaku Street, at this time, the street was full of people, and the sound of singing songs and cheers came from time to time, which was many times more fun than the Anwang Mansion.
"Hey, wait."
When Cheng Jingjing passed by a stall selling jewelry, she grabbed San'er, who wanted to move forward.
"Buy you this," I saw her pick up a pink veil and hang it on San'er's face: "Your face is too eye-catching, it is not safe for us two women to walk on the road at night, if you wear this, it will not attract those with bad intentions." β
"Jingjing, you're so sweet." San'er was suddenly ashamed.
She knew that her face had brought all kinds of troubles since she was a child, and it was also this face that made her come to King An's Mansion involuntarily, and now it was the first time that someone thought about her like this, which made her feel a little moved.
In order not to worry Wen Miao, who stayed in the house, the two decided to go shopping for a while and secretly return the same way, this time they came out alone without her, and their hearts were still a little empty.
Just as San'er was playing with the fans sold on the side of the road and asking about the price, Cheng Jingjing suddenly saw a familiar figure walking out of the opposite pharmacy out of the corner of her eyes.
She looked at it, and the person seemed to be the personal maid of Concubine Long. I saw Huanxi carefully carrying a bag of medicinal herbs, looking left and right as if he was afraid of being discovered.
"Follow me."
Seeing Huanxi leave the pharmacy and disappear into the crowd, Cheng Jingjing grabbed San'er and walked towards the pharmacy.
"Shopkeeper, did a maid in green come to you to buy medicine just now?"
Cheng Jingjing asked urgently as soon as she walked into the pharmacy, but the shopkeeper of the pharmacy ignored her when he saw that she was a poorly dressed person, and continued to bow his head and grab his medicine.
Cheng Jingjing saw that the other party ignored her, so she slapped the table and scolded loudly: "That maid is the person we have been looking for in Prince An, if you dare to mistake the matter of Lord An, be careful of losing your head!" β
Who in the whole capital doesn't know the name of Prince An, when the emperor was alive, his reputation was even greater than that of the current emperor, and the shopkeeper who was still pretending to catch the medicine hurriedly put down the small scale, and said respectfully: "The little one doesn't know that you are the person of Prince An, so I am lazy." But...... That little maid just now is also from King An's Mansion, what the hell is going on......"
"It's not your turn," Cheng Jingjing glared at him viciously, and said: "That little maid has committed a crime, our whole house is arresting her, you hurry up and tell me what medicines she just caught, if she makes a meritorious service, Prince An will definitely be rewarded, maybe he will help your pharmacy to publicize it among the princes and nobles." β
"That's right! Say it! San'er, who was still in the clouds and fog on the side, also coaxed.
Although she still couldn't figure out what was going on, seeing Cheng Jingjing's nervous face, it must be that the maid who grabbed the medicine just now must have something to do.
As soon as he heard that he had a way to make a living, the shopkeeper hurriedly explained it.
It turned out that Huanxi came to their pharmacy just now and said that he wanted to buy some Tiannanxing, and the shopkeeper felt that this medicine would be poisonous if it was not good, so he didn't want to sell it to her, but he was threatened that he was from Anwangfu, and if he didn't sell it to her, he would bring someone to demolish his small shop tomorrow. The shopkeeper had no choice but to grab a bag for her.
"What's so poisonous about this medicine?"
Cheng Jingjing keenly sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked.
"Poisoned people will have a swollen mouth and tongue, speechlessness, dizziness and palpitations, and in severe cases, respiratory paralysis and life-threatening."
After listening to what the shopkeeper said, Cheng Jingjing thought that this concubine was really addicted to harm, and she repeatedly troubled them, this time she didn't give her a lesson, she wouldn't be surnamed Cheng!
After understanding the whole story, Cheng Jingjing asked San'er to go home together, told her her conjectures on the way, and told her how Concubine Long framed them during this time.
"That Long Yu'er is really hateful!" After listening to Cheng Jingjing's words, San'er felt angry: "It's just a little side princess, and she actually thinks about how to harm people all day long!" β
"Who calls someone's father a general, Miao Miao and I are both little women from ordinary families, and others can shoot us to death with one finger!"
"I'll help you!" San'er patted his chest indignantly.
"Just you?" Cheng Jingjing sneered: "You with thin arms and thin legs, it is estimated that even Long Yuer's little maid Huanxi can't beat it." However, if you become the princess of Anwangfu with this face, there is probably some hope. β
"You're making fun of me again!" San'er blushed for a while.
After the two returned to King An's Mansion in the dark, they saw Wen Miao sitting in the main hall with a dark face waiting for them.
"Miao, you haven't slept yet."
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Cheng Jingjing and San'er smiled and pasted it. The two of them sandwiched Wen Miao from left to right and said all the good things over again. San'er also took out a fragrant handkerchief from his bosom and said, "Sister Wen, this is what we bought for you outside, and we have picked several stores!" The lotus flowers on this side are especially flattering to you. β
"This lotus handkerchief is particularly beautiful," Cheng Jingjing echoed: "We all think that this lotus flower is only suitable for my sister to use, and it doesn't match us laymen at all." β
"Alas......" Wen Miao couldn't resist the two of them, and finally compromised: "You two weak women, run out alone in the middle of the night, what if you run into one or two bad people and leave me alone." You also know that I have no power or power in this mansion, and I have no way to save you. If the prince finds out that you two maids are restless and abide by the rules of the government, they will definitely be punished. β
"Didn't we come back well," Cheng Jingjing saw that the other party was no longer angry, and quickly changed the topic: "Guess what acquaintance we met outside tonight?" β
"Who?"
"Long Yu'er's maid is happy, she just came out of the pharmacy."
Cheng Jingjing told Wen Miao what happened tonight, but Wen Miao said: "This is just your own conjecture, and the shopkeeper also said that if it is not used well, it is poison and if it is used well, it is medicine, don't cause trouble for no reason." β
"Miao, you just love to back down too much," Cheng Jingjing glared angrily: "I dare to guarantee that this herb is related to us, otherwise we bet that if there is nothing to do in the past two days, San'er and I will never run around again, and stay in the house every day to learn the piano with you." If you lose, you can no longer scold us for causing trouble. β
"It doesn't matter who wins or loses," Wen Miao grabbed the hands of the two left and right, and said seriously: "I just want our three sisters to live peacefully, so it's okay to ......"
Cheng Jingjing was out of breath for a while, and hugged Wen Miao with San'er, and the three of them snuggled up to each other and returned together.
In another part of King An's mansion, a man dressed in black knelt in front of Yang An.
"See clearly that the two of them went out together?" Yang An looked at the scroll in his hand, and his gaze did not move for half a minute.
"The subordinates have seen clearly, one is Mrs. Wen's personal maid, and the other seems to be a newcomer."
The person who spoke was named Lone Shadow, who was Yang An's personal guard, and he rarely showed up, just doing things for his master in secret.
"Did you see the man's face clearly?"
"It was too dark for her subordinates to see her face."
"I know," Yang An flipped through the pages of the book in his hand, and ordered: "Follow the new subordinate well, don't let dangerous people get close to her, and arrange for people to guard near Youlan Courtyard, don't alarm the people inside." β
"Subordinates obey."
The lone shadow disappeared into the center of the study after receiving the order.
