Chapter 125: Take Me to the Fu Family
This side of South Street is the farthest from the palace, but it is the second most lively place in the capital.
The noble families all live on the northern side of the city, and the closer they are to the palace, the higher their status.
Wen Qingzhu walked on the street, Peony held her hand, and looked at the crowd on the street with novelty.
"Miss, it's so lively outside."
"Yes, compared to the Wen family, this place is more humane." Wen Qingzhu looked at the pedestrians and vendors coming and going, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
She used to have a down-to-earth life, and she once lived here in Nancheng.
After walking for a short distance, Wen Qingzhu looked back at the signboard of Wanrentang and reminded: "We can't go far, Mother Ye and them will come back later, we will be anxious if we can't find it, and when I am free in the future, I will bring them all the green pottery and come out to play together." β
"The slave knows." Peony stopped embarrassedly.
Wen Qingzhu was just about to turn around and walk back, but found a familiar figure shuttling through the crowd.
When I looked closely, that person was actually Dongzi.
"Why did Dongzi appear here?" Wen Qingzhu muttered to himself.
Peony didn't hear her clearly, and immediately asked, "What did Miss say?" β
Wen Qingzhu looked at Dongzi's figure, and seemed to be in a hurry, as if he was in a hurry to go somewhere.
"Peony, you will wait at the tea shed first, I'm going to go over there to have a look." Wen Qingzhu pointed to an alley not far ahead.
Peony suddenly became anxious: "The slave maid will accompany the young lady!" How can you let the young lady go alone! β
Wen Qingzhu shook her head firmly, she had to leave one for Mother Ye to reply to the message.
"Miss!"
Wen Qingzhu took out a sachet from his sleeve, handed it to Peony and said, "Mother Ye is very familiar with this fragrance, you give this to Mother Ye, I have another sachet on me, you can find me according to this when the time comes." Don't worry, your young lady is very powerful. β
"Butβ" Peony was still not at ease.
Wen Qingzhu stuffed the sachet into the peony's hand: "Don't worry, the capital is very safe, even if something happens, I can protect myself." β
After much persuasion, Peony finally agreed.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and left without hesitation, and walked up with Dongzi's figure.
Shuttling through the bustling crowd, Wen Qingzhu is not the only one with power.
So she's really inconspicuous, it's daylight, and the sun is just right.
Petty theft in general will not haunt either.
More importantly, Wen Qingzhu knew that Xinhou's witchcraft had implicated many people.
Now Jing Zhaoyin has sent people to inspect every day.
During this time, crime in the capital dropped dramatically.
Wen Qingzhu knew about this, so he was relieved to chase Dongzi alone.
In her impression, although Dongzi is a little funny, he is a very reliable and steady person.
There is only one person who can make him anxious.
That's Fu Lie.
Wen Qingzhu's footsteps were very fast, and he arrived in the alley in less than half an hour.
But she didn't see Dongzi's people, although there were pedestrians inside, but they were all unknown to her.
Wen Qingzhu wondered to himself, how could Dongzi disappear so quickly?
Just as he was puzzled, a voice suddenly came from behind Wen Qingzhu.
"Trouble girl, let me."
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly got out of the way, only to find that it was a young man pushing a cart.
Two wooden barrels were placed on top of the car, the lid was covered, and a quiet fragrance came from inside.
When the young man saw that Wen Qingzhu was out of the way, he said more: "Thank you, girl." β
Watching the cart pass by him, Wen Qingzhu stared at the two wooden barrels.
This fragrance is very familiar!
When the young man walked over, Wen Qingzhu suddenly remembered what this was.
"This big brother, may I ask if you have Phalaenopsis in this barrel?" Wen Qingzhu hurriedly chased after him in a few steps.
The young man pushing the cart slowed down and looked at Wen Qingzhu in surprise: "The girl actually knows that this is the fragrance of Phalaenopsis?" Do you always use the incense powder in our store? β
Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes, the fragrance of Phalaenopsis is follow-up and long-lasting, and it is the most suitable for making incense powder, but when it is impregnated with perfume, the fragrance is not obvious." β
"The girl really knows the goods! I'll tell you the truth, you just happened to come, this is the second batch of perfume, the first batch of perfume powder has been prepared, the girl can go to the store with the villain to have a look. "It's rare for young people to meet someone who knows the goods, and they can't help but talk a lot.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and followed the young man into the alley.
At the corner in the middle of the alley, the young man pushed the cart and turned another corner.
Wen Qingzhu was a little worried, but he saw Nan Xiao coming out of a door not far away.
Nan Xiao didn't seem to see her, and went out the door and went directly in the other direction.
Looking at her appearance, it seems that something is in a hurry.
He followed the young man to a doorway and stopped.
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and saw that there was an agarwood signboard hanging on the inconspicuous door in front of him.
A faint fragrance emanated from inside, and Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but squint.
Agarwood is extremely rare, and some people use it so extravagantly as a signboard.
Perhaps after years of wind and rain, agarwood has lost its original color.
However, its fragrance is still long-lasting.
The signboard has two simple words written on it - incense shop.
The young man pushed the trolley in, and saw that Wen Qingzhu hadn't come in yet, so he reminded: "Girl, come in, there are not many guests today, so there is no need to queue up." β
Wen Qingzhu did not hesitate and walked in directly.
As soon as I stepped into this small courtyard, dozens of fragrances wafted over from all directions.
Wen Qingzhu sniffed softly, becoming more and more surprised in his heart.
This little shop Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
She could probably only distinguish dozens of scents, one of which Fu Lie had given her.
However, Fu Lie said that the fragrance was brought back from overseas in the southern coastal area.
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly walked inside, the delicate and small front yard was full of all kinds of flowers and plants. Zero Long Literature Network
Among them, there are many precious varieties.
At a glance, she saw two orchids, planted on the edge of the small courtyard.
Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but look up and found that there was a transparent glass cover at the top of the small courtyard.
It turned out to be a glazed tile shed.
Just as she withdrew her gaze, a young man in a brocade robe walked out.
Jade crown ink hair, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes.
"It's the girl's first time."
His tone was very affirmative, although he was looking at Wen Qingzhu, his eyes were not annoying.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "It's the first time I've come, but it's not the first time I've used your family's fragrance." β
The young man in front of him flashed surprise in his eyes, but he didn't say much.
"Girl, please." He leaned sideways to give way and raised his hand to invite.
Wen Qingzhu didn't talk nonsense, and slowly walked into the house.
In the whole lobby, the decoration is very elegant.
In addition to the counter in the middle, there are shelves on the left and right sides.
There are some antique porcelain in the intervals, and the rest are the fragrances and fragrances contained in various brocade boxes.
Wen Qingzhu walked to the shelf on the left and looked all the way.
Didn't see anything to like.
She simply turned around and asked the son next to her, "Can you please introduce me to him?" After all, I've only used your violet scent. β
Hearing her words, the look of surprise on the young man's face could no longer be hidden.
"The girl actually used the violet fragrance in our store?!"
"I didn't buy it for my friend." Wen Qingzhu explained vaguely.
In fact, she wasn't sure if there was a violet fragrance in this store at this time.
"Does that girl know Princess Deca?" The young man suddenly became curious about Wen Qingzhu's identity.
Wen Qingzhu was surprised, but he didn't expect that he would ask Jiang Dejia as soon as he opened his mouth.
After thinking for a moment, she replied with a smile: "I know Princess Deca. β
"It turns outβ"
Before he finished his words, Wen Qingzhu said again: "But Princess Dejia doesn't know me. β
The young man was stunned.
Wen Qingzhu walked to the shelf on the other side and said slowly: "But I have a good relationship with the county lord of Pingshu. β
The young man looked at Wen Qingzhu's back and became vigilant.
"Dare to ask the girl's name?"
Wen Qingzhu refused: "It's inconvenient for me to say, but I am also very familiar with the girl who left just now, her name is Nan Xiao, can the son know Fu Lie Fu Gongzi?" β
Speaking of the last sentence, Wen Qingzhu slowly turned around and looked into his eyes seriously.
The smile on the young man's face faded, replaced by an unusually serious one.
"The girl is here to find Nanxiao?"
Wen Qingzhu chuckled: "No, I'm here to find Fu Lie." β
The two of them just looked at each other quietly.
After finding out that he knew Nan Xiao, Wen Qingzhu was very sure that he must know Fu Lie.
Dongzi didn't go anywhere else, he just came here.
After a while, Nan Xiao followed out the door.
Wen Qingzhu was very sure that the man in front of him must know where Fu Lie was.
After a long time, the young man finally spoke: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you the whereabouts of the childe." β
Wen Qingzhu frowned, and at this time, Dongzi walked out of the inner hall.
He first looked at the young man and said, "Gong Qiaoβ"
Before he finished speaking, Dongzi's gaze moved to Wen Qingzhu's body.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Dongzi and greeted with a smile: "What about Brother Fu?" β
Dongzi stepped forward in surprise, looked behind her, and finally said in surprise: "Miss, did you come here alone?" β
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, I saw you on the street, I came here with you, I saw Miss Nanxiao go out just now, did something happen to Brother Fu?" β
"This ......" Dongzi suddenly became embarrassed, and he didn't want to tell Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu twisted his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "If Miss Nanxiao is so anxious, Brother Fu must have encountered something, you better say it quickly, in case things are delayed, when the time comesββ"
"I say I say!" When Dongzi heard her words, he quickly gave up hiding it.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and looked at him quietly.
Dongzi touched the back of his head, and then looked at the young man next to him: "Young Master Qiao, if I told her, would the master blame me?" β
The young man thought for a while and replied, "It depends on the status of this young lady in Ah Lie's heart. β
Hearing him say this, Dongzi was relieved, and happily told Wen Qingzhu: "Didn't the master save Fan Ergongzi before?" Fan Er Gongzi admired his master very much and insisted on asking Master Fan to transfer his master to the military department.
Originally, Master Fan disagreed, but after meeting the master, he actually agreed. The master didn't want to go to the military department, he wanted to continue to stay in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, but Lord Fan couldn't refuse, so he finally went to Fu's house. β
"The Fu family?" Wen Qingzhu's heart jumped, could it be the Fu family of a century-old scholarly family?
"Hmm." Dongzi answered, and the rest didn't say much.
The last time Fu Yu appeared at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Wen Qingzhu felt strange.
Fu Yu has such a background, I don't like to come to this kind of occasion.
Thinking of some things in his previous life, Wen Qingzhu probably understood something.
She looked up and said to Dongzi: "Take me to the Fu family, otherwise if your master is detained, it will not be easy to do." β
"Huh?" Dongzi was stunned, but he didn't expect Wen Qingzhu to go to Fu's house.
Wen Qingzhu walked directly outside the house, and at the same time urged Dongzi: "Hurry up, that Fu Yu is not easy to deal with." β
Hearing Wen Qingzhu mention Fu Yu, Dongzi seemed to think of something, and was so frightened that he immediately chased after him.
"Wait for me! I'll send Miss Wen over! β
