Chapter 049: Danyang
An Lan didn't speak, and Gui Zhi continued: "When Wang Meiniang died, didn't An Lan go out of his way to see it, with this affection, it must be more suitable to live in that house." ”
Lu Yunxian looked at An Lan: "Are you willing to exchange with her?" ”
An Lan shook her head, Gui Zhi secretly hated in her heart, so she muttered: "I will only pretend to be clever and behaved." ”
An Lan glanced at her: "At that time, it was Lu Xiang's envoy who went to see Wang Xiang's envoy on his last journey, and I just followed Lu Xiang's envoy into it together, what you said are you saying that Lu Xiang's envoy was pretending to be clever and behaved?" ”
"What do I mean by that?" Gui Zhi was shocked, and then said to Lu Yunxian, "Sister Lu, I'm stupid and can't speak, unlike An Lan, I don't know how many hearts and eyes are stored in my stomach, she wants to slander me in front of you and sow discord, I ......"
"That's it!" Lu Yunxian frowned, "Don't say a word, the matter of the room is so decided, you now lead someone to the house to clean up, and I will arrange an errand for you tomorrow." Don't be lazy, there are dozens or hundreds of things big and small in the incense courtyard every day, Wang Meiniang left suddenly, and now she has pressed down many errands. ”
There are four incense envoys in Yuanxiangyuan who specialize in dealing with Shannon; There are also four people who are responsible for sending new incense products to Koumeilin every month; There are also two people in charge of the treasury; two people in charge of the incense vessels; and the eight people in charge of concocting incense.
All in all, there are twenty incense envoys in an incense courtyard, and each incense envoy has eight to twelve incense slaves in his hands. Except for the two who are close to the maid and specialize in doing some maid chores, the rest are responsible for the work related to incense. In addition, there are rough mothers-in-law. The kitchen lady. The waiter waits in the courtyard. Therefore, there are more than 200 people in the Yuanyuan Incense Courtyard from top to bottom, and under each incense hall, there are several such incense courtyards.
Looking down from the height of the incense hall, aside from the inexhaustible incense fields, the incense courtyards that are connected one by one are actually located outside Chang'an City, a big village of more than 10,000 people under Dayan Mountain. And An Lan is one of those thousands of people.
When Gui Zhi heard that Lu Yunxian had arranged an errand for him to deal with Shannon, but he had arranged for An Lan to go out specifically to run errands in Ninglin, he was a little unhappy in his heart.
In fact, the errand of dealing with Shannon can make more oil and water in private, otherwise Wang Meiniang would not have asked Wang Zhangshi for this errand at that time. The errand that can enter and exit the forest is that it looks beautiful on the surface, but there is no oil and water to fish. But. Because the guests of Kou Meilin are either rich or noble, the incense envoy often shows his face in front of the nobles. I can't tell when I will be able to fly on the branches and become a phoenix.
In Gui Zhi's opinion, An Lan was completely because she had asked Lu Yunxian for a job to go to Ninglin to run an errand before, and hooked up with that Jing Gongzi, and then she had her good luck now. She didn't want An Lan to continue this kind of good luck, but she didn't have the right to give any opinions on the arrangement of errands, not to mention that Lu Yunxian's arrangement seemed to take more care of her.
After Gui Zhi left with her clothes, An Lan said: "Most of the things about the room will still be mentioned to Wang Zhang. ”
Lu Yunxian raised his eyes: "What, do you want to exchange with her?" ”
An Lan shook her head: "I remember that there is another room in the east that is empty, but that room is better than the room of the incense envoy, and it is not the specification that the incense envoy should live in, so Gui Zhi didn't mention it just now, but she must be worried about it in her heart." ”
Lu Yunxian frowned, and then sneered: "She has self-knowledge, let her live in that house, wouldn't it be messy." ”
An Lan said: "Actually, there's nothing wrong with giving her that room." ”
Lu Yunxian was stunned, An Lan glanced out the window, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Doesn't Envoy Lu Xiang think that Wang Zhangshi admits defeat too quickly." Wang Yuniang and Wang Hua, these two are not only the juniors of Wang Zhangshi, but also the cronies he wants to cultivate, but one died as soon as he came in, and the other is now uncertain about his life and death. ”
Lu Yunxian's face became a little solemn: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Wang has been in charge of the Xiangyuan for so many years, if you really want to find out something, even if you can't be checked by him clearly, sooner or later he will catch some clues." An Lan looked at Lu Yunxian and said, "Right now, it is Bai Xiangshi who is dealing with Wang Zhang's affairs, and it has nothing to do with others, but Bai Xiangshi always has to have a helper to do these things." Regardless of Wang Yuniang's matter, just talking about Wang Hua's disappearance, and Bai Xiangshi personally ordered Sister Lu to sit in the position of the incense envoy, is Wang Zhangshi really admitting it? ”
Lu Yunxian hesitated and said, "What do you mean...... These two things, the king will suspect me. ”
"Right now, the White Incense Master can't bring down the king." An Lan walked up to Lu Yunxian and said in a low voice, "Therefore, we must divert Wang Zhang's attention before the king finds out, so that he can't be suspicious of you and me." ”
Lu Yunxian was silent for a long time, understanding that An Lan's worries were not unreasonable, so he asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Bai Xiangshi successfully suppressed the arrogance of Wang Zhangshi, and he sighed in his heart, and now it is easy to relax. As long as Master Bai Xiang relaxes, Lu Xiang's envoy and I will be discovered by Wang Zhangshi. ”
"You're right!" Lu Yunxian's face changed slightly, "Wang Zhangshi is admitting defeat with interest right now, the purpose is to -"
"So, you can hand over the booklet left by Wang Meiniang to Bai Xiangshi." An Lan said and raised her eyes to look out again, "Since Guizhi likes to be in the limelight, then let's go along with her wishes." ”
……
Early the next morning, Wang Zhangshi prepared a generous gift and personally sent it to the White Library, and after a while, there was a happy conversation between the two in the incense pavilion of the White Library. In the end, Baishuguan also ordered Liu Yue to send Wang Zhangshi out, but Wang Zhangshi was busy and said that he didn't need it, and his attitude was extremely deferential and humble.
It's just that not long after Wang Zhangshi left, Liu Yue led a mother-in-law in, and then the mother-in-law took out a booklet from her arms and presented it to the White Book Museum, knelt down and whispered a few words. Bai Shuguan took the booklet and flipped through it, the expression on his face quickly changed from sunny to cloudy, and he stood up suddenly, knocking over the cup of tea that was still steaming a few times at once.
At the same time, An Lan had already received a new errand, and after packing up, she prepared the incense products that Kou Meilin wanted by name and went out. Because An Lan and Golden Bird were both under Lu Yunxian's management before, after An Lan took over Lu Yunxian's original position, Golden Bird also returned to An Lan's side.
"It's a nice place!" The golden finch followed An Lan into the Sleepy Forest, and after walking around, he sincerely admired, "Before, I thought that the small courtyard where Wang Zhangshi lived was magnificent, but compared to here, he is simply a thatched house!" ”
An Lan said with a smile: "It is said that this place in Kou Sleepy Forest is not necessarily comparable to the Royal Palace. ”
"I think so, even though I haven't been to ......" The Goldfinch nodded in agreement, but before he could finish speaking, a figure suddenly hurried out from behind the flower stand next to him, and almost bumped into the Goldfinch.
Then there was a sweet fragrance coming, An Lan hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull the golden finch aside, the incense of Ning Meilin would never be so reckless when walking, and those who could enter and exit here were distinguished guests, if they accidentally bumped into someone who shouldn't have been bumped, then it would be bearable.
However, this person who suddenly rushed out turned out to be the county lord of Danyang!
After An Lan pulled away the golden finch, she raised her eyes and recognized the other party. In other words, compared to that face, the first thing she remembered was the sweet fragrance used on the other party. (To be continued......)
