Chapter 004: Inquiring

After getting some things about Wang Meiniang from Shi Zhu, Gui Zhi turned around and left satisfied, but on the way back, thinking of An Lan and Jinque, her mood immediately became bad again. After pondering for a while on the road, his eyes rolled, and he turned around and walked towards Lu Yunxian's residence.

The two little hooves of An Lan and the Golden Bird were not very enthusiastic about this errand before, but now they are so abnormal, they must be hiding some unsightly thoughts. Lu Yunxian is also the one who loves money the most, and she will never give such a good errand to those two little hooves in vain, she has to inquire what is going on.

"Sister Lu, can you eat it?" Before Gui Zhi came over, he deliberately spent a few dollars to go to the kitchen to get a plate of plum blossom shortbread, and after arriving at Lu Yunxian, he knocked on the door, and when he saw that there was no lock, he pushed it in, just when he saw that there was a little fragrant slave who gave Lu Yunxian cloth vegetables, she walked over with a smile with the plate of dim sum, "I made this in the kitchen today, I'm okay to eat, so I'll send some to Sister Lu." ”

"Yo, this is a rare guest." Lu Yunxian sat on the couch and glanced at her, "At this time, you are not at the king's office, what are you doing here." ”

"Look at what my sister said, can't I come to see you?" Gui Zhi didn't seem to hear the ridicule in Lu Yunxian's words, but still walked over with a smile on his face, and put the plate of dim sum on the kang table, "Besides, Wang Mei Niangxiang is accompanied by Wang Meiniang's incense envoy at this time, where is my turn to serve." ”

As soon as she heard that Wang Meiniang went to Wang Zhang's affairs to offer her courtesy, Lu Yunxian's face sank a little, and her eyes showed undisguised disgust. Yuanxiangyuan's incense envoy Changxier will get married at the end of the year, and after marrying, he will teach his husband and children, and then he will not look back, and the position of the incense envoy will naturally be vacant. Lu Yunxian is the eldest of the several incense envoys, and she has also stayed in the Yuanxiang Courtyard for the longest time, and it stands to reason that after Xi'er leaves, she should sit in the position of the incense envoy. But now Wang Meiniang is fighting with Wang Zhang, and Wang Meiniang has always coveted the position of the incense envoy, so after Xi'er leaves, who will be the incense envoy is really hard to say.

At least in Lu Yunxian's opinion, because of Wang Meiniang's storage, the position of the incense envoy is farther away from her, so she can't help but be resentful!

"It turned out that I was closed, so I came to me, but unfortunately you found the wrong person, in my opinion, you should go to Wang Meiniang's house and wait, and when she comes back, ask her for advice on the tricks of seducing men." Lu Yunxian was in a bad mood, and his words became more and more unpleasant.

With such a naked sarcasm, Gui Zhi really couldn't hold it on her face, but when she thought that Lu Yunxian was a cheap person, she could expect her to say anything good, she deserved to have been in Yuanxiang Courtyard for so many years, and she was just a little incense envoy.

Gui Zhi scolded a few words, held back the unhappiness in his heart, and reluctantly smiled: "Sister Lu really likes to laugh, in fact, there is nothing to learn from people like Wang Meiniang, except for dressing herself up all day long, I really don't have any ability." I don't know how she got her identity as a fragrant envoy, I see, she is really half as good as Sister Lu! It's a pity that the head was blinded by Wang Meiniang's demon woman, and he didn't look at Sister Lu's ability to make incense, otherwise after Sister Xi'er left, this incense envoy would not be properly your sister. ”

After this call, Lu Yunxian's face was really better, but after a while, she figured out that Gui Zhi's words seemed to have other meanings, and asked: "Is it possible, someone can already sit properly in the position of the incense envoy?" ”

Gui Zhi hesitated for a moment, sat down opposite Lu Yunxian, and whispered: "I heard that the demon woman has been running very diligently in the past few days, and it seems that the person in charge of the matter has promised her this matter today, I don't know if it's true, after all, Sister Lu, you have to prepare well." ”

Lu Yunxian's face changed slightly, and he frowned: "How do you know?" ”

"I know how to do it." Gui Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, and then said, "Sister Lu doesn't have to doubt my intentions, I will tell Sister SΓΉ about this, but it's because I don't like that demon woman." If she is really proud in the future, how can there be a good life for me, Sister Lu will be different, I know that you have always been the most just person. ”

Lu Yunxian snorted, she didn't have any personal relationship with Gui Zhi, and she didn't want to reveal too many bad feelings in front of her, and besides, Gui Zhi's selfishness was not unclear to her, so she flicked her finger lightly on the snack plate: "You came here, just to sue me about this?" ”

Only then did Gui Zhi say again: "Actually, there is one more thing I want to ask Sister Lu." ”

Lu Yunxian glanced at her: "What's the matter?" ”

"I have a job to run an errand today, and I saw that An Lan took it away, and I was really aggrieved. Speaking of which, Sister Lu and An Lan haven't gotten close to me yet, why did she assign such a good errand to her, and she didn't think about me, could it be that she couldn't do this errand? ”

Lu Yunxian glanced at her, and said lukewarmly: "If you don't get closer, let's say that they are the fragrant slaves under my control, and I don't give them benefits if I don't give them benefits, do you want to cheapen others!" You are under the control of Wang Meiniang, if you want to ask for such a beautiful difference, just look for her, she is so proud now, are you afraid that there will be no good errands, it depends on whether you are reluctant to give up? ”

Gui Zhi smiled: "That demon woman is too greedy, I am a little Xiangnu, how many things can I give her." My sister told me how much An Lan was willing to give, so that I could have a score in my heart, and I would not be cheap in the future. ”

Lu Yunxian glanced at her, and then said a little lazily: "It's just that I paid five taels of silver and a box of rue cakes, which is not worth anything." ”

Gui Zhi was surprised and blurted out, "She can have so much money!" ”

"Buy less rouge gouache, save for a year or two, why don't you have so much money!" Lu Yunxian was a little impatient, Wang Meiniang also recognized Wang Zhangshi as her godfather, hooked up together from morning to night, and excluded her openly and secretly, so she didn't have a good face when she was Wang Zhangshi's goddaughter.

As she spoke, she glanced at Gui Zhi again, because the king loves women, so in the Yuanxiang Courtyard, from the incense envoy to the incense envoy to the incense slave, women account for seventy percent. And there are several people here who are very good-looking, such as Wang Meiniang, Guizhi, Xi'er...... Even An Lan and Golden Finch, who are still young, have begun to fall, and in less than two years, it will surely be another Guizhi.

In the end, most of those who have outstanding looks and no background will eventually recognize the king as a godfather, and then suddenly turn into a phoenix. Gui Zhi is just a fragrant slave now, but he dares to pose in front of her, not because of how sweet the "godfather" is.

Of course, she had also seen women who were good-looking, who had been sold into slavery, but who did not want to kneel under the crotch of the king, but as a result, those women were forced to succumb to many men, and disappeared from sight.

She has an average family background, a mediocre appearance, and a diligent worker, so even if she has some qualifications over the years, she is still just a little incense. As soon as he thought of this, Lu Yunxian was in a very bad mood, so he picked up the chopsticks on the table, and said angrily, "When I eat, I don't like people to be around." ”

Gui Zhiben also wanted to ask An Lan again what kind of mistake she did when she went out today, and it was worth her to spend such a bloody money. It's just that Lu Yunxian is really impatient, in this courtyard, the other party's status is higher than her, and now that the order to evict guests has been clearly issued, it is not good for her to stay any longer. After all, this errand will ask a few little incense slaves around Lu Yunxian in a while, and they can still ask, so they smiled, and said, "Sister Lu uses it slowly, I will lose my company first." ”

After Gui Zhi went out and the door closed, Lu Yunxian slapped the chopsticks on the table with a snap.

Wang Meiniang, that slut, if she is really ridden on her head in the future, can she still stay in Yuanxiangyuan? The intrigue in the courtyards of the Changxiang Hall has never stopped, and there are many people who have to leave here every year. Some people have a better life after leaving, and some people have become worse than pigs and dogs after leaving.

She was sent here by her family when she was nine years old, and now thirteen years have passed, she has long been accustomed to here, even the man she wants to marry, she is also here to get along, and the matchmaker invited by the family specially came to tell her that as long as she becomes the incense envoy, this family affair is proper!

However, if she really loses to Wang Meiniang this time, then her days in Changxiang Hall will probably come to an end, and Wang Meiniang will never let her go out in style, and she will see the situation when the loser leaves. What's more, the Lu family also pointed to her to earn more silver, if she was driven back like this, those people in the family would let her go? I'm afraid that the family business that is good will also be yellow!

The more Lu Yunxian thought about it, the more her face sank, unless she withdrew from the battle of the incense envoy and went to Wang Meiniang's head to bow her head...... It's just that as soon as this thought came together, Lu Yunxian was so angry that he swept the cups on the ground to the ground, and there was a cold crisp sound, which frightened the little Xiangnu next to him into a panic, and only after a while did he remember to clean it up.

Let her bow her head to that slut, it will never be possible!

can't lose to Wang Meiniang, you must sit in the position of the head of the incense.

Lu Yunxian took the tea that Xiao Xiangnu had poured again, and after taking two sips, he slowly calmed down. Wang Meiniang has the support of the king, but the decision on the position of the incense envoy is not only the king's decision, in the final analysis, the king's affairs also depend on the face of the incense master.

……

Gui Zhi inquired around, and after knowing that An Lan went out today to do just a job of delivering incense products, he felt even more strange. For such a job of giving objects, how could that cheap girl be willing to take out so much silver to exchange? When I send things over, most of them are connected with the steward of Kou Meilin, and it is very rare to meet nobles.

It was because she recognized Wang Zhangshi as her godfather that she began to loosen up her hands, and now she can't look down on five taels of silver, but five taels of silver is equivalent to a year's monthly example for a fragrant slave who has no backing. There is also that box of rue cakes, if you take it out and buy it, if it is in good condition, it can be sold for two taels of silver.

Why?

Gui Zhi couldn't understand it, and planned to go to Wang Zhangshi's place again, but when he passed by the corner gate, he suddenly saw a faceless person asking about something, and vaguely heard that person mentioning Chen Lu. Chen Lu knew her, although she didn't have a relationship, but she had been back and forth a few times, and it was dark and someone from Sleepy Forest came here to inquire about something.

Gui Zhi was suspicious, so she walked over and asked, but under this question, she immediately figured out what An Lan and Jinque had in mind.

Gui Zhi's eyes lit up, and he whispered a few words to the man, and then quickly turned around and ran towards the incense room.

At this time, after An Lan and Jinque discussed carefully, they packed up their things and went to Granny An's for dinner together. Just when he walked halfway up, An Lan asked again: "The little incense in the incense room won't be discovered, right?" ”

As incense slaves, in addition to giving them some ordinary grass plants in the courtyard every month, if they want other incense, they can only pay for it themselves. The incense she gave Ma Guixian needed a slightly expensive incense, but almost all of their money was used to make some Lu Yunxian, and the rest couldn't even buy incense ash.

The golden finch shook his head: "No, I secretly went in and cut a piece after Lu Xiang made the incense, others will not be able to see it, and those locks were not damaged in the slightest when I opened them, no one will be suspicious." ”

"Every time Lu Xiangzhi goes to the incense room to get incense, the amount taken is recorded, in case someone checks it out......"

"If this is investigated, it is not obvious that he wants to get along with Lu Xiang, even if there is such a person, he will only think that Lu Xiang has made him greedy. In fact, that piece of incense is not much money, but we can't afford it, and the people who take inventory, how can they put that bit of silver in their eyes, you can rest assured. ”

An Lan thought for a moment and nodded, just as they walked to Granny An's place, the warm candlelight came out from the hidden door, illuminating the two young and immature faces.

Tomorrow, they hope that the sun will still shine!
