I stood at the table and watched the whole time.

When the black pills on the plate showed the true face of Lushan, I was almost carried away by the sudden surprise.

I held the small jade white plate, and the joy in my heart was indescribable!

Turning his head to look at Tianfang, he smiled slightly and said, "It took some effort, and the most difficult thing is to control the heat." ”

"Little junior sister, did the herbs you picked grow in the water?"

Tianfang asked me suddenly.

I was startled, and my gaze changed slightly.

Hanging my head, I was thinking about how to respond, Tianfang came over and reached out and patted me on the shoulder a few times and said, "Go upstairs and get ready, I'll take you to the street later." ”

He didn't ask about the origin of the medicinal herbs, but brought it with a light word, and I glanced at the sky gratefully.

I frowned as my gaze fell back to the plate.

Tianfang was so keen, he had already noticed my movements, and said softly when he saw this: "Little junior sister, wait for me for a while." ”

I sat down at the table, elbows propped up on my head, all the while staring at the cyan pills on that plate.

It's really pleasing to the eye, and you won't get tired of watching it many times!

The medicine that has been obtained after many twists and turns is too precious!

It didn't make me wait too long, and after a while, the sky went and came back.

He had an extra small bottle in his hand that was also pale cyan, and he handed the jade bottle to me, and said with a smile: "Little junior sister, just put the pill in it." ”

I opened the cork and filled the pills with great care.

I secretly made up my mind about it, from this moment until it was in the hands of another person. I will never leave it!

Holding the small bottle in my hand, I wondered if it wasn't enough. It's time to pick up the female red that hasn't been used for many days.

I'll have to put a coat on this little bottle and hang it around my neck, just like when I hung the key when I was a kid before the crossing, it's so much more important than the key!

Tianfang watched my movements, the corners of his lips moved but he didn't speak.

I finished filling the pills, told him, and went upstairs to wash up and change my clothes

Winter morning. The streets of the capital city have already begun to come alive.

The streets are lined with steaming dim sum shops and food stalls.

I came out of the alley with Tianfang and walked all the way to the stone bridge. He chose a shop for breakfast.

The vegetarian stuffed buns that just came out of the steamer were paired with bean curd, and the two of them each asked for one.

I took a small bite as I watched the pedestrians passing by on the street.

Not long after, I turned my head and asked, "Senior brother." How can there be so many people walking on the streets? ”

Speaking of which. I did see quite a few strangers on the streets of Sealand when I came out of the palace, but it was a little strange that there were so many people coming out this morning.

When Tianfang heard this, his eyes swept around the street a few times, especially when he saw that there were many people at the table next to us who looked significantly different from the local people in Zealand were eating the same breakfast, and he smiled: "Is it because of the fact that the king opened the northern land today?" ”

My eyes moved, and a thought suddenly came to mind.

After hesitating for a moment, I turned my head and quietly pulled Tianfang's sleeve and asked, "Senior brother." The people who came out of their palace, which way to go. ”

As soon as the words came out, I regretted it again. This question is too white, the empress came out with the team, which way can it be?!

I thought about the map of Sealand that I had seen, and calculated the distance between where we were and the largest main road in the city.

The pattern of the national capital city is actually relatively easy to remember, and the pattern of the main road is clear, because the main road that Wang Shi passes through will be the widest and longest in the city.

It's not like when Tianfang took me to walk in the city, and the places I had to pass were all winding paths.

I thought to myself, I went over the stone bridge, turned a corner, and walked a short distance ahead, and the first right-turn junction I saw was the road that led to the avenue.

I thought silently in my heart, and was hesitating whether to take advantage of the excitement and follow the wind again, and go with the people of the capital city to watch the procession coming out of the palace.

Seeing that I was pondering, Tianfang leaned closer and asked, "Little junior sister wants to go and see the empress's team?" ”

When he asked, my desire to see it was diluted.

I shook my head and said, "I think it's a little bit of a thought, but didn't you say it, senior brother, there is still a task on the street today." ”

"We're going to buy it early after eating, aren't we?"

I remember that when Tianfang discussed the boat with the shopkeeper of the winery about the drawings, he mentioned that I would buy the rest of the things with him and then let them deliver them to the ship.

From the bottom of my heart, I must have wanted to see it, but I thought that even if I followed the people of Sealand to both sides of the long street to watch, it was hard to say whether I would be able to occupy a vantage point.

If I am lucky enough to occupy a clear position, the procession in the palace that I can see must be only the empress on horseback and the carriage following behind.

Like the rank of the National Teacher, how could he see it casually, and besides, his condition was not good before I left the palace.

Thinking of the National Teacher, a trace of worry rose in my heart, and I looked at the direction where the long street was located and silently distracted.

Tianfang was accustomed to my change of feelings, and waited for a moment before saying to me: "After eating, go to the street to see what you want to bring, and when you get to the boat, it will be too late to think about it." ”

I nodded in agreement, suppressing the depressed feelings in my heart and trying to calm them down.

The shop where we stayed was doing very good business, and in a row of several tables, it didn't take long for a group of people to change people at the tables next to them.

"Last night's celebration, did you both see the empress?"

My ears moved, and I heard the man at the next table who had just sat down ask the other two companions in a low voice.

Although I talk to the sky, I still pay attention to the movements around me.

Not only was it because my situation in the palace was a bit special, but I was worried that I would encounter guards patrolling the city in the capital, which was a matter of habit.

From the time I left Snow Country. For so many days and nights, as long as I was outside, there was always a nerve in my body that was tense, and I could only relax completely when I was with someone.

The person sitting at the table next to him arrived late. Two of his companions had almost finished their ravioli, and he had come here.

When they heard this, they made fun of him.

I understand the reason, this couple came here from the lake country to do business, and they happened to meet the celebration of Sealand, and they thought it was a very rare opportunity, so they all wanted to see what the rumored empress looked like.

They are also curious about the unique customs of this place.

Plans were made to travel together, and who knew the latest of them to arrive. I didn't get used to the soil and water after a meal in the national capital, and I missed the rare opportunity to see the celebration last night.

The man was talking to them!

At this moment, the vegetarian buns on the plate in front of me have been eaten, and I drank half a bowl of bean curd. Originally, I was going to leave, but as soon as this time came, Tianfang patted me on the back of my hand.

I exchanged glances with him and realized what he meant.

Actually, I don't want to leave anytime soon.

I didn't get a chance to go to the celebration last night. I was in a similar mood to their late companions. I would like to take this opportunity to hear about the situation at the festival.

For example, the program that was arranged, and the people who appeared at the celebration.

The two people at the next table opened the chatterbox, and the first person to start gossiping about was not the empress, but the imperial monarch who went with her - He Yanzhi of the Lin De Palace!

The conversation at the next table came to an end, and when Tianfang slapped the back of my hand again, my whole body was in a trance.

Tianfang paid for breakfast, pulled my arm casually and said, "Let's go!" “

I followed him, still thinking about the conversation I had just had. Tianfang approached me and said, "Little junior sister, what do you want to buy?" Go where you're going first. "Huh?!" I replied, reminding myself not to wander anymore, that whatever happened last night was true, it had nothing to do with me.

Besides, now my focus should be on the Northland, I calmed down and looked at the heavens and said, "Senior brother, I want to go to the ready-to-wear store, do you know which street in the capital city is the best?" “

Tianfang stood still at the intersection, discerned the direction and said: "I have walked around the city, it seems that there are the most ready-to-wear shops on East Street, but if you have to cross the long street in the middle, you will definitely be stopped in the middle of the road, but it is not suitable, let's go to the nearby store pù." "Although the choice is a little smaller, you don't have to worry about the team going out of the city," Tianfang smiled faintly, "It's better." “

Senior brother said sincerely, how can I disagree.

Following him, we came to an alley not far from the snack bar, and as Tianfang said, there was a small ready-to-wear shop at the entrance of the alley.

I walked in and asked the proprietress about the price of her clothes, and after some haggling, I bought two men's clothes of the right fit, and two dresses that Sealand girls often wear.

The proprietress may have seen a lot, or it may be because many girls in Sealand will change into teenagers when they come to the street, so when I took the men's clothes and compared them to the body, her expression was not surprised at all.

The proprietress stood aside and took the initiative to pick up my clothes, but her eyes looked at Tianfang who accompanied me from time to time.

The guy was so eye-catching, and when he stood in the shop, he suddenly felt that the light in the room was a little brighter.

I was afraid of getting into trouble, so I quickly picked it up, and then left with Tianfang.

After walking a long distance from the shop, I looked at him with a smile and said, "Senior brother, I think the next time you come out with me, it is necessary to do something on your face, even if you add a few moles." "Look at the reaction of the shopkeeper."

Tianfang said with a smile: "Don't worry about it next, go out of the city tonight, go directly to the river to take a boat, the waterway will take several days, and there is no chance to go ashore." "There are only a few villages on the way, so you can rest assured."

I sighed and said, "Fortunately, it's a waterway, you've thought of it a long time ago, right?" “

Tianfang shook his head and smiled without answering.

After walking forward for another trip, Tianfang stopped and grabbed me and said, "Xiao Ling'er, the purchase must be completed before noon, because the delivery carriage will come to Meixian Pavilion at noon." "Senior brother, you didn't say it earlier." I glanced at it and complained.

He kindly lifted the big bag containing the things I bought, raised his head and looked at the shop on the street in front of him, and said: "There is a store there, I passed by in a hurry last time and didn't bother to go in and have a look, this time I just stopped by, you come with me to take a look." “

I said yes, because when I saw several girls coming out of the shop, my first reaction was that the things I bought there would probably be something I liked.

Approaching the shop and glancing inside, I no longer hesitated and immediately stepped over the threshold and walked in.

There are a lot of delicate things piled up on the shelves of the shop, and some of them are not available in this place, but are specialties from other places brought in by past merchants.

I swept my eyes and saw the exquisite hairpin ring jewelry, I didn't have much interest, and then I looked at the rouge gouache next to me, and I was not interested, and I turned a row of shelves, and I suddenly stopped.

The eye was drawn to the things stacked on the upper shelf.

Among them, there is a particularly delicate hand stove, looking at the exquisite carving process on the top, I couldn't take my eyes off it for a long time, and when I walked over to get it, I couldn't reach the upper shelf.

Tianfang followed me silently, and at this moment he took down the small hand stove for me.

I took it in my hand and looked at it carefully, and I really couldn't put it down this time.

The shopkeeper in the shop had already seen the movement here, and hurriedly walked over, stood by the shelf and said with a smile: "This hand stove was brought when I went to Huguo to buy goods a few days ago. “

I looked at the carvings on the top and saw that they were indeed different from those used by the nobles in the palace, and the carved patterns on them were particularly exquisite. "To tell you the truth, this hand stove is not one, but a pair, and just two days ago a customer bought one of them."

Tianfang smiled and quipped: "Why didn't that guest buy them all, but there is only one left for my little junior sister." "Since you like it, buy it," Tianfang paused and said, "It's cold to go to the north, so you can use it." “

Tianfang saw that I was silent when he stroked the stove, and bought it for me on the side

One morning, I walked around the plot near Meixian Pavilion, and when I went back, I harvested a large bag of things.

Tianfang naturally became the hardest porter, carrying the pile of things for me, but there was a warm expression on his face the whole time, as if something good had happened, which made me look at him suspiciously several times, but I didn't know how to ask.

When I got close to Mei Senkaku, some of the people passing by on the road came back from the long street, and I heard the conversation of passers-by from time to time in the crowd.

They were talking about the time when the king had passed through the long street.

said how majestic the empress was riding a white horse, and said that she was followed by the carriage in the palace.

As I expected, it was impossible for the National Teacher to show up, but the car he was sitting in was still in the middle of the line! (To be continued......)
