Chapter 1: First Encounter

Next Chapter

Dayan, Youzhou City.

Youzhou, as the capital of Dayan, is not to mention lively and prosperous. Most of the mansions of the nobles are on West Street, and if a plaque falls in front of any of the mansions, nine out of ten people who are smashed are officials of the third rank or above.

East Street is the urban area at the foot of the Son of Heaven, with many shops and busy traffic, and people coming and going are either rich or expensive. At this time, a simple and overly simple carriage was driving slowly on the East Street, which was out of place with the surrounding flowers, adding a bit of shabby. The sound of a woman talking could be faintly heard from the carriage.

A crisp female voice complained softly: "Miss, Madame is really, knowing that you are out to do something, she only took you such a small amount of silver, and sent such a carriage." ”

"Yintian, don't criticize Madame."

When the maid named Yintian heard this, she lowered her head a little reluctantly, and answered softly, "Yes." He pursed his lips and remained silent.

Luo Xinfang looked at her maid's puffed up, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, and said comfortingly: "You, what are you doing with her?" I didn't expect anything from her to give me. Then he said: "In the future, you should act more steadily, otherwise I will not worry about taking you." ”

Yintian listened, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, and he nodded busily.

Luo Xinfang's eyebrows were a little helpless, and he shook his head.

At this time, the coachman's voice came from outside the carriage, "Miss, it's here." ”

Yintian hurriedly took the hat and put it on Luo Xinfang, and carefully served and got out of the carriage.

The carriage stopped at a place called Jinyu Pavilion, which was a well-known silver building in Youzhou City. This is the property left to her by Luo Xinfang's late biological mother, and the step-family in the family doesn't know about it, otherwise she doesn't know what she will become.

When the shopkeeper saw Luo Xinfang enter the door, he hurriedly greeted the person to the private room on the second floor and served tea.

"Miss, you're here." The shopkeeper opened the lock of the mahogany cabinet, took out an account book, and respectfully handed it over, "This is the recent entry in the store, please take a look." ”

"No need, I am naturally relieved to do things Uncle Liu." Luo Xinfang took a sip of tea and didn't look at the account book. Seeing this, Shopkeeper Liu didn't dare to slack off, and his expression was a little more respectful.

Luo Xinfang put down the teacup and asked, "What did I entrust you to check for me before?" ”

Shopkeeper Liu nodded, "I found out, there are many young ladies from the family who participated in the general election in the same batch as Miss You this time, and it is worth noting that there are the eldest lady Jiang Ling on Jiang Zuoxiang's mansion, Lin Xizhi, the fourth lady on Taishi Lin's mansion, Zhao Wanying, the third lady Zhao Wanying on Taiwei Zhao's mansion, and Wei Qingshuang, the seventh lady of the Auxiliary General Wei's mansion." ”

Shopkeeper Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "These people are the same as you, if there is nothing wrong, they will definitely enter the palace." ”

Do you have to enter the palace......

Luo Xinfang sighed silently in her heart. If she had a choice, she really didn't want to enter the palace.

But fate has always been so strong. No matter what was given to her, she could only accept it and struggle to live better.

Shopkeeper Liu saw that Luo Xinfang's face was pale, and explained her: "Miss, you don't have to worry, no one knows your ability better than the small one." It's not hard for you to believe in yourself as a small one. ”

Luo Xinfang smiled, "Uncle Liu, didn't you say that you don't need a small bite in front of me." You are the person my mother trusts the most, and I naturally trust you too. ”

Shopkeeper Liu poured another cup of tea for her, "We subordinates always have to do our part." He handed over another letter, "Here's what you found, take a closer look." ”

Luo Xinfang nodded, handed the letter to Yintian, and said, "Good life to accept it." Then he got up and said goodbye to Shopkeeper Liu, "Uncle Liu, I have to go to other places, so I won't delay." What you were prepared before ......"

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly said: "There is a box of all kinds of jade ornaments, and the remaining two boxes are red gold heads, and you can respond to emergencies if you twist them." Someone has been ordered to load it into your wagon. ”

Luo Xinfang bowed his head and walked out of the gate of the Golden Jade Pavilion with Yintian.

Yintian opened his mouth and asked, "Miss, do you need anything else to buy?" ”

Luo Xinfang lifted his hat, turned his head sideways and said, "It's almost done." It's a rare opportunity to take a stroll down East Street. Maybe this will be the last time. ”

Yintian couldn't help but feel a little sad. Luo Xinfang just smiled and patted Yintian's hand, she has always been very tolerant of this maid who has served her since she was a child.

Yintian's sadness didn't last long, and she was dizzy at the dazzling array of things on East Street. Luo Xinfang was also full of interest and bought a lot of ingenious gadgets.

Just as she was dazzling in front of a candy man stall, there was a sudden commotion on the street.

Luo Xinfang was just about to turn around and ask Yintian what was going on, when she saw a luxurious carriage galloping from the street, and the driver of the carriage drove the pedestrians viciously.

"Get out of the way! Way! Blocking Lord Wei's carriage, don't die! ”

Seeing this, pedestrians dodged and pushed each other, terrified. Seeing this, Luo Xinfang hurriedly leaned towards the candy stall, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a boy holding a ball of glutinous rice in the middle of the road, as if he was scared stupid.

Seeing this, Luo Xinfang hurriedly lifted the corner of her skirt and ran to the middle of the road, regardless of Yintian shouting at her behind her...... Her mind was full of the child's inability to dodge and die tragically under the horse's hooves.

She didn't care about any etiquette anymore, and shouted loudly to passers-by: "Save people!" Save! He shouted and ran to the kid.

But how can the speed of a person catch up with the speed of a horse, not to mention that she is only a weak woman. Seeing that the horse's hooves were about to step on the child's head, Luo Xinfang closed her eyes in horror.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the carriage galloping away, kicking up a cloud of dust. In the middle of the road, there were only vegetables and fruits left behind when passers-by hurriedly dodged, and there was no tragic situation as she imagined.

"Is the young lady looking for him?" Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind him.

Luo Xinfang was stunned, and quickly reacted to straighten his hat and turned around.

I saw the sword eyebrows and starry eyes of the person behind him, his face was like a crown of jade, wearing a snow-blue robe, ignoring the slightly ugly look on his face, he was really a beautiful son.

In his right hand, he carried the boy who had just been unable to dodge, as if he was carrying something, and the boy had obviously not yet reacted from the accident just now, and his face was still the same sluggish expression on his face as he had just been in the middle of the road. This combination of one big and one small looks very funny.

Holding back a smile, Luo Xinfang gave the man a slight salute, "Thank you for your help." ”

The man said disapprovingly: "Since you have taken the child out, you have to watch it carefully, do you have to wait for someone to help you every time?" There was a thick disdain between his eyebrows.
