An hour later.

Hu Kee Pharmacy.

Qin Li returned to the pharmacy with the medicine box, and heard Hu Langzhong say to her: "Li'er, the little lady Shen who lives in the Jiayu Inn has a stomachache, so she asked someone to come to the pharmacy and said that she would ask you to help her take a look." No, her maidservants have paid in advance. ”

As he spoke, Hu Langzhong had already taken out an ingot of gold and asked Qin Li to accept it.

Qin Li put the medicine box away and said, "Uncle Hu, just keep it." I'll go get some pills first, and I'll ride over quickly to show Miss Shen a look. ”

She worked in this pharmacy, and she was able to receive a lot of money, and she could also get some charcoal and cloth. Although this consultation fee was given to her by Mrs. Shen, according to the rules in the pharmacy, she could only get half of it.

When she came to work in this pharmacy, she had always understood the rules.

Hu Langzhong saw that Qin Li did not receive the gold, and when Qin Li went to the stable to look for the horses, he followed and gave the gold ingot to Qin Li. said in a very soft voice:

"It's still snowing outside, what horse are you riding? The carriage in the house will come back in a moment, and I will have you sent it there. To tell you the truth, this ingot of gold was indeed sent by Shen Xiaoniang's maidservant, but she said that it was handed over to you by her entrusting someone. Because the third prince is here......"

As soon as Qin Li heard that the third prince was coming, she thought that Hu Langzhong was joking with her, so she didn't take it seriously.

The third son of the family is still in the imperial city, it's so cold, it's not convenient for him to come over, right? Besides, it's all in Layue, I heard that Prince An is planning to take Shang Xiaoxiao back for the New Year, and the third prince is still running out before the year?

When you think about it, it's unlikely.

Hu Langzhong saw doubts in Qin Li's eyes, and knew that she didn't believe what he had just said, so he took out a note and put it in Qin Li's hand.

"This note was sent by Shen Xiaoniang's maidservant. I asked me to pass it on to you, saying that when you open it and look at it, you will understand everything. ”

After listening to Hu Langzhong's words, Qin Li opened the note in front of Hu Langzhong and read it.

I saw that only three words were written on the note:

[Come to eat.] 】

Take a look at those three big characters, and you can know that it is indeed Zhao Sheng's handwriting.

Qin Li's eyes flashed with joy, she really didn't expect that Zhao Sheng would come to Jiayu City and invite her to dinner.

In order not to let others know about this, Qin Li only gestured to Hu Langzhong, wanting to tell him: The third prince is indeed here, he is here, it's good.

Hu Langzhong smiled and nodded, and said softly: "I'll go out to work first, you go to the gate and wait, and when Wu Anren comes back in the carriage, you can sit on it." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Hu." Qin Li saluted and said.

She carried the medicine box to the gate and waited, and after waiting for a pillar of incense, she finally waited for the carriage of the Hu Mansion to come back.

After Wu Anren jumped out of the carriage, Qin Li stepped forward, talked to Wu Anren for a while, and then took the carriage to the Jiayu Inn.

The carriage moved slowly, not much faster than on foot. Qin Li sat in the carriage and wanted to get out of the carriage and run over, so that he could see Zhao Sheng soon.

I want to tell him what happened to her after he and Uncle Shi left here. There are things that must be told to him.

But when I thought of this time and space, I had to obey the rules, so I didn't dare to get out of the carriage, so I had to count patiently in my heart. She waited until the carriage stopped outside the gate of the Jiayu Inn before she jumped out of the carriage.

Qin Li took out two taels of silver and gave it to the little guy who was driving.

The little girl shook his head and said, "Miss Qin, you are so outside." The old man ordered the little one to send you and pick you up. The little ones are waiting for you in the carriage. ”

"How does this work?" Qin Li smiled and said:

"It's good to take the carriage here, little brother, you go back to the pharmacy first." If there are other Langzhong who want to go to the doctor, can you send them? ”

The little servant said: "It's also good to take the carriage at the door of the pharmacy, Miss Qin, you can rest assured." I said I'm waiting for you here, and I'll be waiting for you. ”

Just as Qin Li was talking to the little girl, Zhao Sheng was standing in front of the window of the guest room at the moment, watching her figure. The room he stayed in was specially prepared for him by the shopkeeper of Jiayu Inn.

Even if he hadn't lived here for a few days, there were still people cleaning this room for him, and it was extra clean.

When he came out of the palace, he brought only a sword and even a sword, and a change of clothes, which his master had given him. Fortunately, when he checked into the inn before, the few gorgeous clothes and robes that were left here were still there.

As soon as he came to the inn, Zhao Sheng went to take a bath first, changed into an ice blue robe, and stood in front of the window of the guest room, waiting for Qin Li to arrive.

There were three knocks outside the door:

"Knock, knock, knock."

Zhao Sheng thought that Ling Han had come to the inn to look for him, and asked, "Brother Ling?" ”

"Third son, it's the slave and maid who are here. Our young lady asked the slave maid to come and tell you, Miss Qin is almost here. You see......"

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, "You bring Miss Qin to my side in a while." ”

"Yes, Third Prince." Shen Xiaoniang's maidservant answered, turned around and went downstairs to pick up Qin Li.

After a while, Shen Xiaoniang's maidservant took Qin Li upstairs, and according to what the third prince said, she took Qin Li to his guest room.

As soon as Qin Li saw Zhao Sheng, his eyebrows and eyes crooked with a smile, and he greeted, "Ah Sui, I haven't seen you for a long time." I didn't expect to see you a year ago. How have you been lately? ”

Although there was a charcoal fire in this room for heating, she saw that Zhao Sheng was wearing a little thin, so she couldn't help but worry about him, afraid that he would be cold.

Thinking about it again, it's not that he hasn't been to Jiayu Land, so he shouldn't know that it will snow here in winter. He came out of the palace, why didn't he bring a fox fur over?

Or did he run out of the palace to avoid someone?

Qin Li thought about this problem in his heart, he was afraid that this guy ran out of the palace and didn't bring anything, and it was not good to go out to buy anything, so he would be frozen.

I saw Zhao Sheng looking at her, and he never took his eyes off her face. But he didn't answer her, just looked at her.

She was anxious and asked:

"Why don't you ignore me? I ask you what to say, speak. ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed in Zhao Sheng's eyes, and he asked, "Can't you see if I'm doing well?" ”

If he had a good life, would he have gone to Jiangnan a year ago and came to meet her? The woman must have been angry with him on purpose, and asked knowingly.

"Heh, Ah Sui, in fact, I've heard a lot about you." Qin Li smiled wickedly and asked:

"You said, did you come to our Jiayu Mansion to avoid those two beauties?"

Zhao Sheng didn't expect that he was unwilling to answer her words in the letter, and after he came to Jiangnan, she even asked him in person. Okay, she wondered, and he said, isn't that it?

There were some things he would tell her sooner or later.

"You're right, Ali, I'm here for a reason. But I didn't come here to avoid anyone. I'm here because I want to see you. ”

I want to be with you.

The latter sentence, Zhao Sheng hid it in his heart and didn't say it for the time being.

He pretended to be a little embarrassed and said, "Because I ran out of the palace, and when I left, I didn't bring any silver taels, two didn't bring clothes, and three didn't bring anyone to protect me." I think that when I come to Jiangnan, you will definitely take me in. For thou hast said to me, if anything is wrong with me, tell ...... thou shalt tell me."

She did say this, and said that even if she couldn't help him, she was willing to listen to him and say what was in her heart.
