291: Bond
After Ziqiang went out, he looked up at the sky.
I don't know when it started pouring rain, and the air was a little cool.
This damn rainy day.
The rain washed away the dust on the stone pavement, and there were few pedestrians.
He didn't have an umbrella, and he didn't wear a robe.
Ever since he wore this night suit, he wouldn't be seen in a conspicuous place.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked at the particularly dazzling and swaggering Moonflower Workshop in the buildings in the distance.
Where there is a lot of people, it seems that the streets here are deserted.
He held the box in his hand, clearly knowing that it contained a priceless pearl of the night. If he gave the Night Pearl to the bloated old woman at this time, he believed that he would be able to meet the woman he had been thinking about.
Suddenly, as if he did not obey the call, he walked slowly towards that place.
Gradually, the voice from the Moon Flower Workshop became clearer.
The cheers of the men, the delicate laughter of the women, and the smell of hot wine, stinky sweat, and the smell of fat powder mixed with the girls made him almost vomit.
At this time, two men with red faces who had drunk walked out of the door.
"Hey, have you heard? Mrs. Chang'an Hou is a terrible person. ”
"Amazing? What's wrong? Speaking of which, she is also a female streamer, if it weren't for the Li family and the Xiao family, she would still be a small merchant girl in that small county, where can she have her current status. ”
"You're not right, I'll tell you. A few days ago, I was delivering food to an old man's house, and I heard the people there mention Mrs. Chang'anhou. It is said that the four princes are interested in her, but the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless, so the four princes will come to help the people of the Xiao family welcome her on the day of her marriage. Otherwise, think about it, why did a sick prince who stayed at home all day suddenly appear. ”
"No, that's kind of funny. But. None of this can be trusted. If the fourth prince really likes Mrs. Chang'anhou, then the night pearl that the young master of the Zhao family bought with a lot of money is estimated to be in the hands of Mrs. Chang'anhou. Haha, a weak woman. You're thinking too much. I said you just have a good drink here. Think about what to do. ”
"Yes. But she's good-looking. ”
"You...... Hahahaha, I know what you're thinking. ”
The two drunks pointed at each other and finally couldn't help but laugh.
After Ziqiang listened. He took a deep breath of the air that annoyed him, turned around and left the Moonflower Workshop.
Zhao Nanke's least favorite thing is betrayal.
He didn't dare to try.
If he betrayed Zhao Nanke, then the person in the Moon Flower Workshop might die in the hands of Zhao Nanke. Even if he doesn't die in the hands of Zhao Nanke at that time, he will die in the hands of Cinnabar.
Cinnabar, cinnabar.
It had been a long time since he had heard this person's name, but he didn't expect to hear this person's name again today.
Moreover, it is still on the Zhao family's mansion.
Ziqiang couldn't help but shudder, what did this evil ghost want to do this time.
After walking for a long time, he finally stopped in front of the Chang'an Mansion, he looked up at the huge mansion in front of him, and remembered the words from the mouths of those drunks just now.
Xia Ruan, the third lady of the Xia family, is now Mrs. Chang'an Hou.
He had heard the name from Cinnabar's mouth, and he had also heard the evaluation of this woman from Zhao Nanke and even other people.
Ziqiang's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he remembered something funny.
"Smack, smack."
He banged on the door.
Soon, the door opened from the inside, and the little servant poked his head out of the door and asked, "Who?" ”
"I am a descendant of the Zhao family, and the young master of my family asked me to come over and send some things to Madame." Ziqiang explained while making an apologetic expression, "Excuse me." ”
The little servant looked at him suspiciously, and shook his head: "You go back, my wife has been unwell recently." ”
Ziqiang was stunned, and then understood the meaning of the little girl's words.
No matter how powerful Miss Xia is, she is also a woman. He is a subordinate, how can he easily see Mrs. Chang'an Hou?
If it's like this, then it's not a mess.
Ziqiang once again felt that Daqin's people were really troublesome.
When he was in Nissi, where did he need to follow so many rules?
"The master of my family is the young master of the Zhao family, let me give a gift to my wife, please help me pass it on." As he spoke, Ziqiang took out some broken silver from his cuffs and handed it to the little guy, "I'm sorry for you." ”
As soon as the little guy saw the silver, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He looked around and found that no one was looking at him, so he quickly took the silver from Ziqiang's hand, and then pretended to be serious: "Then you wait, I'll go and talk to Miss Duran, Madame may not meet you." ”
After speaking, he slammed the door shut.
Ziqiang stood outside the door, watching the rain in the sky getting heavier and heavier, and felt even more panicked in his heart.
It was also on such days that he was forced to wear this dress......
After a while, the door opened again, and the person who came over this time was no longer the little guy just now, but a girl with a beautiful face: "Are you from the Zhao family?" ”
"The small ones are." Ziqiang felt that the girl in front of him seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he didn't look at it anymore.
Duran glanced at the subordinate in front of him who was wearing a strange outfit, and frowned: "Come in." ”
Duran didn't expect that she just casually passed on the word, and the lady who was lying on the bed actually agreed with this person.
In the past few days, Mrs. seems to be a little unwell, she can't sleep or eat well, and the whole person seems weak.
But at this time, my sister accompanied my father to Zhuangzi in the suburbs, and Mrs. felt that it was a small problem, so she didn't look for outsiders to come and see.
Madame disguised herself very well in front of Hou Ye, but she didn't let Hou Ye notice that she was abnormal.
Duran sighed and quickened his pace.
Ziqiang, who was following her, raised his head to look at Duran's figure. Soon it drooped again.
When she reached the main courtyard, Duran asked Ziqiang to wait outside, and she approached the inner room and said inside, "Madam, he's here." ”
"Let him in."
There was a gentle voice in the room.
Duran turned to Ziqiang and said, "You go in." ”
Ziqiang nodded: "Thank you, girl." ”
It's just that at this time, he was so wet that every step he took would leave a footprint.
As soon as Ziqiang entered the room, he saw a woman sitting on a soft couch.
The woman had an innocent face and looked like an innocent little girl. is obviously an adult, but his face is still immature.
He was a little stunned, this is Xia Ruan?
Why is it completely different from the rumors?
Obviously, it's just a little girl.
Such people. It can give cinnabar a headache when it is lifted. It will be uncomfortable to make Zhao Nanke mention it, and it will be angry if the people of the Nan family can mention it.
He felt like he was dazzled.
"Do you want to change your clothes?" Xia Ruan saw that the strong man standing in front of him didn't speak, and looked at him so wet that he was afraid that he would catch a cold. "If you don't mind. I'll have someone bring you a clean garment to change. ”
Ziqiang quickly came back to his senses. His eyes were slightly lighter than those of ordinary people, and the gray ground seemed to be covered with dust.
Xia Ruan showed a hint of surprise, but it was fleeting.
She knows. The person in front of him was not a citizen of Great Qin, but a person from the Western Regions.
Zhao Nanke asked this person to come to her eyes, what was it for?
For a while, Xia Ruan was also a little confused.
Ziqiang hurriedly took out the box in his arms, and then shook his head: "Thank you, madam, the little one, it's just that the little one is not cold." This is what the young master asked me to give to my wife, and I hope that my wife can accept it. The young master said that this was a congratulatory gift for his wife's newlywed. ”
Seeing Xia Ruan nodding, Duran took the box from Ziqiang's hand and sent it to Xia Ruan.
Xia Ruan didn't expect Zhao Nanke to give her a gift, and opened the box with some amusement for a while, but her smile slowly solidified.
The pearl of the night.
Why did Zhao Nanke give her the Night Pearl.
Suddenly, she thought of the six princes in her previous life who gave a priceless night pearl in order to win over Xiao Shaocheng.
At that time, everyone around knew that the six princes asked them to go to the Western Regions to buy the Night Pearl back, but in the end it was sent to Xiao Shaocheng. In fact, Xia Ruan, as a businessman, knew that this night pearl was not worth it. It was so expensive that even a merchant would not consider buying back something so extravagant and worthless.
She will remember the Night Pearl, also because Xiao Shaocheng said with a smile at that time: "Some people's life experiences are really terrible." ”
She was confused when she listened, but she remembered Xiao Shaocheng's face.
There was not only surprise on that person's face, but also a hint of confusion.
This was the only time she saw Xiao Shaocheng confused.
However, later, Xiao Shaocheng still returned the Night Pearl to the Six Princes, and she was fortunate to see this Night Pearl before that.
In fact, for Xia Ruan at that time, she really didn't like a glowing bead much.
It's just that she never thought that many things would change in this life, and this Night Pearl would finally fall into the hands of Zhao Nanke, and now Zhao Nanke gave her this Night Pearl again.
Xia Ruan clenched the Night Pearl tightly before asking, "Did your young master say anything else?" ”
"The young master said that this night pearl actually has a legend, and it is a very good legend." Ziqiang said it very honestly, although he always felt that the young master was crazy to believe in this legend, but as a subordinate, he couldn't lie after the lord gave the order, "If Mrs. wants to hear it, I can tell Mrs. about it." ”
Xia Ruan looked at the gray eyes of the strong man in front of him, then turned his eyes to look at the night pearl in his hand, and laughed softly: "Legend? You can tell me about it. ”
What kind of gift did Zhao Nanke want to give her?
It's a surprise, maybe it's okay, but Xia Ruan is afraid, this gift is a fright.
Zhao Nanke is really getting more and more interesting, and it also makes her more and more unaware of Zhao Nanke's intentions now. (To be continued.)
