Chapter VII: Guards

Early in the morning, Miao Zhi asked Ning Er to dress up herself, put on the embroidered shoes of silver silk peony embroidery, and couldn't wait to walk towards Shen Yuqian's courtyard.

Passing through the crooked corridor, bypassing the lush garden of flowers and plants, it didn't take long to come to the outside of the garden of Yu Qian, there are several rows of fresh and tender green green green bamboos planted outside the wall, and the plaque on the arch is written with three big characters "Jingzhu Garden", Miao Zhi smiled, the eldest brother is really elegant.

Quickened the pace into the garden, and the two waiters in front of the door respectfully blessed the blessed "eldest lady".

In the past, Miao Zhi hardly came here, so she didn't have much memory of Shen Yuqian's garden.

The pattern in the garden is similar to that of the Mandarin Pavilion, there is no flower pot fish pond, and some are just the same tender bamboo pots and pines as outside the garden.

Shen Yuqian was wearing a standard robe, holding a stainless steel sword, his body kept moving around, the sword qi flashed, and after dancing with one move, he found Miao Zhi by the door.

"Big brother, your sword practice is really good, hehe." Miao Zhi walked over with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and applauded along the way.

"Zhi'er, why did you think of coming to Big Brother today, and it's so early in the morning."

The two walked to the stone table, Miao Zhi picked up the purple clay pot on the stone table and filled the tea cup, and handed it over flatteringly, "Big brother, drink water, you don't have to go to the academy today?" ”

Shen Yuqian took the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "I don't have to go on vacation today." Glanced at Miao Zhi, who was smiling, and said, "Nothing to be courteous, say, what do you want me to help with?" ”

"I, I do have something to find my eldest brother, you know, I was injured in the head by a thief a few days ago, although it is better now, but this heart is not very steady, so I want my eldest brother to accompany me out to see if there is a girl who practices the family, you can buy or hire."

She paused and said, "It's not very convenient for one of my daughters to go out, besides, besides, I don't have much money on me." The voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end he could only scratch his head in embarrassment at Shen Yuqian.

"Didn't my mother assign you two good guys a few days ago? Why do you have to find it yourself? Shen Yuqian asked a little strangely.

"Those two guys, they don't do anything at all every day, and it's just a decoration to let them come.

And, after all, it's a man, and it's not convenient to be in my boudoir, you say? Miao Zhijiao smiled and looked at Shen Yuqian.

"You're a clever ghost, you know that the eldest brother will help you, hehe, okay, then you wait for the eldest brother here, I'll go into the house and change my clothes, and we'll go to the street in a while." Shen Yuqian took a sip of the remaining tea in the teacup and turned around and entered the house.

Instead of riding in a carriage, the three took to the street on foot. Ning'er took out a paper umbrella and obediently held it up for Miaozhi, so as not to bask her in the hot sun.

Wandering in the bustling streets, it is the new Jincheng of the imperial capital of Beixin, with taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the main road. The vendors holding large umbrellas and setting up stalls in the open space shouted and sold, and the voices came and went. Miao Zhi looked at this happy scene, very novel. After a while, he came to the vendor who blew the candy man and looked at it in surprise, and then he squeezed in front of the vendor who pinched the dough and asked curiously, and Shen Yuqian followed so unhurriedly, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth.

Only Ning Er pouted and looked dissatisfied, because all the messy food and gadgets that her young lady bought were carried by her maid, and she had to give the young lady running around an umbrella to shade the sun, which almost exhausted her to death.

Seeing that the sun was already shining, and noon came, Shen Yuqian stepped forward to hold the tireless little sister.

"Zhi'er, it's already noon, aren't you hungry after shopping for so long? I think you've forgotten what you're here for, right? I've already bought a lot of things, and if I buy them again, Ning'er shouldn't be able to take them. ”

Miao Zhi turned around and looked at Ning'er and the large and small boxes in her hands, and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

"Big brother, I'm really hungry too, Ning'er is tired of coming, hehe, let's go eat."

The three of them walked for a while, and then came to the door of a restaurant called "Tianyi Floor". Entering the door, Shen Yuqian asked the shopkeeper to arrange a box on the second floor, and went up the first room on the right hand side of the escalator, and after sitting down, he ordered some special dishes and a pot of wine.

As soon as Xiao Er brought a few plates of cold dishes and sake to the table, he heard that the aisle outside the box was a little noisy.

"Master Fuqing, don't be embarrassed, this box Hongxuan Gongzi has long asked the Qimang around him to come and book it, and now our box is full, you can't go in." Xiao Er's voice was obviously anxious. "What is Hongxuan Gongzi, that paralyzed man who can only show off his piano skills in front of others, Lao Tzu hasn't taken him seriously. This box Lao Tzu is seated, and when he comes, let him sit in the hall below. ”

Miao Zhi looked through the gap in the curtain of the box, and happened to see Qimang and another good-looking man carrying a wheelchair upstairs. The cold man in the wheelchair with picturesque eyebrows pursed his thin lips gently, and his dark blue dark flower printed robe made him even more cold and luxurious.

"Yo, see who's here? What about the famous Yaoqin son, what kind of song will you play for all of us today? The tone of obvious contempt was playful.

"This box is going to be decided, people like you are only worthy of sitting in the hall with those lowly people below, tsk"

Qimang seemed to be annoyed and was about to make a move, but the man in the wheelchair slowly put his hand on his arm and shook his head slightly.

"Prince Hongxuan, are you here too? My sister and I happen to be eating here, this is it, if you don't dislike it, come and join us, right? I don't know when I got up and went to the aisle, and euphemistically invited Hongxuan Gongzi to dine together, and Miao Zhi hurriedly followed.

"Fuqing, don't be arrogant, although your father is a secretary of the ministry, but this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and you can't be domineering here. Besides, Prince Hongxuan is a friend of the distant prince, how can you be allowed to slander and abuse like this. ”

Miao Zhi saw the man on the opposite side with oily hair and flour, and the two small mung bean eyes crowded together, and suddenly remembered, isn't this person one of those people who got drunk and made trouble in the smoke and wave shop?

The man seemed to be a little frightened by what Shen Yuqian said, but he was unwilling to be said so flat, so he stiffened his face and stammered, "What is there to be afraid of, I, I am still the son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, besides, there is a prince to support me!" Judging Yuqian, don't think that if you are a celebrity next to Mrs. Liu Xian, I am afraid of you. Today is your luck, you wait for the master. After saying that, he slipped into the box next door.

Shen Yuqian shook his head helplessly, invited Yuan Hongxuan into the box, and informed Xiao Er to add a few more dishes.

"I'm sorry, let Brother Yuqian smile, thank you Brother Yuqian for relieving me, I will be the boss today, it can be regarded as a thank you gift." Miao Zhi looked at the cold man's handsome side face, his face seemed to be paler today than last time, his legs were covered with a thin blanket in the hot summer, and he coughed shallowly from time to time when he spoke, Miao Zhi knew that he was a little forbearing, and he didn't feel more curious about this man.

Everyone walked to the table, Miao Zhi sat down next to the eldest brother, and politely bowed to Yuan Hongxuan.

"Where, why are you so polite, everyone is a friend. This Fuqing is a well-known ruffian scoundrel, and he is also a master who does not learn and does not know how to do it in our academy, and he is also a prince of the prince, don't take it to heart. ”

Shen Yuqian diligently filled the wine glass in front of Hongxuan Gongzi, and then turned around and gave Miao Zhi some dishes.

"Zhi'er, eat more, I guess I will have to walk more in the afternoon, after all, I can't find a suitable one for a while. Let Ning'er hire a carriage to go back first, you bought so many things, and it is inconvenient to hold them. As she spoke, she took a few other dishes and put them on her plate.

"Brother Yuqian, where are you going to take Miss Miaozhi?" After Yuan Hongxuan asked, he covered his mouth with his hand and coughed forbearantly, and Qimang behind him hurriedly handed over a clean handkerchief, but he waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to.

"My sister was attacked by thieves in the house a few days ago and injured her head, and she didn't have an eyebrow after checking for a few days, so she wanted to find a good practitioner, if this situation happened again, there would be a good one around to take care of."

Yuan Hongxuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, thought thoughtfully, and said: "After dinner, I was just going to the 'Xing Bodyguard Bureau' in the west of the city to get some medicinal materials.

I can entrust him to help introduce one, after all, people with this status can't just find some idle people in the rivers and lakes, etc., it's better to know the roots. ”

"Then Brother Lao Hongxuan will help with this." Xian Yuqian happily toasted Yuan Hongxuan, and Miao Zhi also picked up the cup and raised it to the cold man, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome".
