Chapter 5 Pursuit
"Silly Lilac!" Zheng Xi touched Lilac's head, she and she grew up together since childhood, like sisters, and she couldn't bear her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But Zheng Xi didn't want her to be like in her previous life, she gave her life in the General's Mansion at a young age.
"I don't want you, you also saw it today, my uncle wants to kill me. I'm just asking you to get more money out and help Miss me find a way out, and when my uncle doesn't want me one day, I can still go to you, why don't you understand my mind! ”
"Really?"
"Of course, when did I lie to you! After you go out, you go to find Ah Jiu. Ah Jiu, you know it too! Let him buy you a decent house and wait for me to find you. If he asks you anything else, don't say more, just say that I asked you to buy it. He is familiar with everything in the capital, and people know it, so he won't lie to us. ”
"If anyone asks you about your provenance or your possessions, don't be gullible, lest you meet those with impure intentions."
"The property is Miss's, how can I let others know!"
"Yes! Right! Wealth cannot be exposed, and it is easy to invite trouble. ”
Zheng Xi thought of those bad guys who cheated money and sex, and couldn't help but sweat for Lilac's future life.
The two of them had already packed up their words, and Zheng Xi put the large silver tickets and broken silver that were easy to carry into the lilac's baggage, and when they were full, they felt inappropriate. She poured them all out, turned over a few old closses of cloves, and asked her to sew the silver tickets into her clothes one by one, and then folded them and put them in her baggage, until she was full of them, and then she clapped her hands and called it a day.
After a few words of advice to Lilac, he lay down on the bed and waited for dawn.
If nothing else, Zheng Xi will enter the palace with Li Xu after dawn, and whether she is alive or dead depends on the emperor's intentions! Send the cloves out, and she is also relieved.
Naturally, the emperor didn't take her life seriously, and she was afraid that Zheng Yue would be there by then, if she really didn't want Zheng Xi to live, things would be difficult to do......
As soon as I squinted for a while, I heard the voice of someone coming.
"Young lady, we are here to groom you." A voice came from outside the door.
Zheng Xi remembered this voice, it was Mama Zhang, who had worked in her courtyard for a while in her previous life, and she was honest. Although 'she' was embarrassed at that time, Mama Zhang was one of the few who didn't attack her personally. Zheng Xi had a good impression of her.
Get up and signal Lilac to open the door for her.
Mama Zhang was followed by four girls, two of them carrying toiletries in their hands, one holding a new set of clothes in her hand, and one holding an empty wooden tray in her hand.
Zheng Xi walked unhurriedly to the dresser and said, "Mama Lao is bothered." After speaking, he glanced at Lilac, and Lilac rewarded one of the red envelopes prepared in advance.
In her previous life, she didn't understand these human accidents, and thought that people only need to get along with each other with their hearts, and how can they understand that if the people below have benefits, it will be convenient.
A few people took the red envelope, their faces were obviously better-looking, and they asked Zheng Xi about his favorite hair accessories and head shape.
Although the Zheng family sent a fake bride, the dowry was all according to the identity of the eldest daughter, if Zheng Xi used these money properly, as long as her life was saved, Li Xu should not maliciously come against her, her life would not be too difficult.
Thinking of resources, Zheng Xi waited for the girl to put on good makeup for her, and carefully tinkered with her face again, until the face was sculpted by her to be impeccable.
When going out, Zheng Xi looked at the bronze mirror standing in the corner of the door again, different from the heaviness of last night's wedding dress, today's red makeup is simple and unstable and generous, setting off Zheng Xi's graceful figure and her exquisite makeup, which is so beautiful that people take their breath away.
Showing a satisfied smile to the world-class face in the mirror, Zheng Xi lifted her skirt and went out. Women! Don't forget Meimei at any time.
Seeing the figure of Wei'an waiting at the gate of the garden, Zheng Xi just didn't see it, walked closer, and walked directly past him.
Wei'an is useless, but it doesn't really belong to her.
If she has affection for Li Xu, it will only be for those seven years. Later, he wanted her to revolve around him again, but it was impossible.
Li Xu didn't expect her strength to be greater than him, turned his head, and just saw Zheng Xi staring at the amazing face without squinting, and his heart beat uncontrollably twice, relieving the strange feeling, and then his face turned cold and walked in one direction.
Out of the gate, two four-lifted sedan chairs waited at the door.
Li Xu took the lead in the sedan chair with the big red word on the back.
Standing alone in front of the sedan chair, Zheng Xi helped Lilac's hand and sat into the sedan chair by himself.
Where is this the treatment that a young lady should have, it is even inferior to the daughter of the Zheng family.
Li Xu turned a blind eye to Zheng Xi's existence, and Zheng Xi only regarded Li Xu as transparent.
When the sedan chair arrived in the downtown area of Kyoto, Zheng Xi called out to the sedan chair driver, "Lilac, you go to the Furong Building to help me buy a box of roses I usually use." ”
Li Xu only frowned when he heard this, but did not make a sound.
I waited for nearly an hour. The Hibiscus Building stood there, and it took only half a stick of incense to go back and forth.
They didn't go out early to buy rose dew.
Li Hongwen and the Duan clan went first, and not only had they arrived at the palace gate, but even the people who asked them had been sent.
"Don't wait, get up". Looking at Liu Xi, who was sitting opposite him with his eyes closed, Li Xu was in a complicated mood.
Zheng Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she even had a pain in her buttocks, and she was really afraid that Li Xu would suddenly care about cloves, so it was the best. For so long, Lilac may have found Ah Jiu.
Ah Jiu is the steward of the Zheng family's fire house, five years older than her.
When he first entered the Zheng family, Ah Jiu's ten-year-old sister was sold into the Red Mansion by his gambling father, who made him so anxious that he hid in the fire room and cried. was overheard by Liu Xi, and after asking about the situation, he took out his private money and asked Ah Jiu to hurry up and redeem his sister.
Ah Jiu was grateful to Zheng Xi, and would often quietly send some fresh melons and fruits to her garden after that.
Zheng Xi knew that he wanted to repay this kindness, and asked him to help run errands with some inconvenient little favors for her, and after coming and going, the two became acquainted.
Now let Lilac go to him, I don't think there will be any problem.
It didn't take long to arrive at Nangong Gate, where Li Hongwen and Duan had already gotten off the sedan chair and were waiting there. Seeing that they were late, they didn't ask, but only ordered them to enter the palace quickly, so as not to miss the hour.
Zheng Xi is now fifteen years old, and with the addition of seven years in the Shogun's Palace, he has lived in Kyoto for a total of twenty-two years.
The Zheng Mansion and the General's Mansion are not far from the palace, but this is the first time Zheng Xi has entered the palace.
The palace gate was close at hand, as majestic as a mountain, knowing the danger in the palace gate, but her heart was uncontrollably excited.
Although Zheng Xi was innocent in the past, she was also a girl with her own dreams and ambitions. That is the desire to be like Zheng Yue, to have a noble identity, and then walk into the palace with a graceful posture and into the sight of the upper class.
