Chapter 544: Rouge

Since the last time he had an argument with Leng Lingzhe, it had been more than half a month since Shen Mu left the palace, and Leng Lingzhe could be relieved, but he couldn't.

He thought that letting go was another kind of fulfillment, but he never thought that after a few days, Leng Lingzhe gave up looking for Zhao Qiujin's whereabouts and prepared for the draft ceremony with peace of mind.

Shen Mu clenched his fists, secretly annoyed, but he couldn't help it, Shen Er, who had been following him beside him, didn't understand his son's idea of breaking with the emperor.

"Childe, why don't we go back, just admit your mistake, you and Your Majesty have been born and died, and have gone through so much, don't be suspicious easily."

Shen Mu shook his head, "Why are you planning if the Tao is different?" He is ruthless and unrighteous in Leng Lingzhe, and I am ashamed to be with him. ”

"Childe is cautious!" Shen Er was shocked by his words and broke out in a cold sweat, "Childe is used to being free, how can he call His Majesty by his name?" In the past, His Majesty was used to you, but now it's different, and Childe should be more cautious. ”

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Shen Mu's mouth, and he looked at Shen Mu, "You also know that it is different now, but why do you still persuade me to go back and admit my mistakes?" What's wrong with me? ”

"Let's go, there is no need to say more," Shen Mu took the lead in carrying the medicine box and walked forward, "This place is still a little far from the previous post station, if we delay any longer, we will have to sleep in the open tonight." ”

Shen Er looked at his son-in-law's upright back, sighed, said no more, tightened the burden on his body, and trotted after him.

Leng Lingzhe didn't expect Shen Mu to really leave the queen, he was shocked on the second day that his words the day before were a little mean, and only after going to the imperial hospital did he hear from others that Shen Mu had left before the palace door was locked that night.

His own impulsiveness made him a real loner, Leng Lingzhe lowered his eyes, covering the loneliness that flashed in his eyes.

However, the king has no jokes, and the words he says are like spilled water, which cannot be taken back. The draft is imperative, and he needs to use this draft to block the ministers' mouths.

Leng Lingzhe raised his head, looked at the secret guard on the side, and asked, "Is there any news?" ”

The dark guard bowed, knelt down and replied, "No recent clues. ”

Leng Lingzhe sighed, he had forgotten that it was the first few days since he lost Zhao Qiujin's news, and there was little hope, he had always known it, but he didn't want to believe it.

He waved his hand and motioned for the guard to step back, "Keep looking." ”

The dark guard's eyes showed a trace of unbearability, but he didn't say anything, and clenched his fists to hide his figure.

Leng Lingzhe stroked the dragon head on the armrest of the dragon chair, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

Since he ascended to the position above 10,000 people, he knew that he was destined to be a lonely and widowed person, but he never thought that such a person would come into his heart and teach him what love is, tolerance and trust.

But when he understood, she pulled away and couldn't chase back.

"Qiu Jin, where the hell are you." A tear suddenly slipped from the corner of his eye, fell on the dragon's head, and then drooped down the dragon's eye, as if it was also moved.

And for these, Zhao Qiujin, who has lost his memory, knows nothing, and is still worried about drinking medicinal food supplements to recuperate from his injuries.

"Mother, my injuries have healed, don't let me drink these decoctions, right?" Zhao Qiujin hugged Mrs. Guan's arm and shook it, revealing her big watery eyes.

"No way!" While flatly refusing, Mrs. Guan picked up the bowl again, personally served a large bowl of chicken soup to Zhao Qiujin, carefully picked out the oil slick on the noodles, and said, "Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, you are only about to be a month old, so you can't sit still?" ”

"Drink this soup while it's hot," he said, putting the soup bowl in front of Zhao Qiujin, and looking at her with raised eyebrows, "I've skimmed off the oil slick, it's not greasy at all, you try it." ”

Zhao Qiujin said helplessly, "But mother, no matter how greasy it is, I will get tired of drinking it for a month, I feel sick to my stomach now when I listen to the word chicken soup, can I not drink it?" ”

Mrs. Guan didn't expect this, pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "As long as you obediently finish today's drink, I won't give you chicken soup tomorrow." ”

"Really?" Zhao Qiujin was overjoyed, seeing Mrs. Guan nodding with a smile, she picked up the bowl and slowly drank the soup spoonful, but heard Mrs. Guan say with a smile.

"I'll change it to pigeon soup for you from tomorrow."

"......" Zhao Qiujin was stunned in place, came back to his senses for a moment, and wanted to cry without tears, "Mother, isn't this still the same!" ”

"You're a liar!"

Master Guan walked in at this moment, he listened outside the door for a while, and smiled for his daughter-in-law, "But what your mother said is that you won't stew chicken soup tomorrow." ”

He deliberately accentuated the word "chicken soup", and at this moment Zhao Qiujin realized that he was bypassed by Mrs. Guan.

She simply made a little temperament, sat down at the table, far away from the two of them, with a small face, and said, "I don't care, you two work together to bully me." ”

"Who bullied the little sister? Big brother helps you bully back. I saw Guan Jingyan walking in, but I saw Zhao Qiujin curled up on the chair, wronged into a "little ball", and laughed so much that tears came out.

"You see, you see, you said you came to help me, but you also came to laugh at me." Zhao Qiujin rolled his eyes silently.

"Okay, okay, let's stop drinking these things tomorrow?" Mrs. Guan wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a smile and tears.

Master Guan looked at Guan Jingyan at this time and asked, "But what's the matter?" ”

Guan Jingyan nodded, and his expression immediately became serious, "When the child was inspecting the shop today, he found this. ”

As he spoke, he handed over a jar of rouge to Master Guan and said, "Father, please look at this small jar of rouge." ”

When Master Guan took it, he didn't think too much about it, and asked, "How about the small can?" Isn't this specially made by our Guan family? What happened? ”

Guan Jingyan's face sank and said, "Sure enough, my father didn't see anything wrong. ”

As he spoke, he handed over another jar of rouge and said to Master Guan, "Father, you can compare the appearance and material of the small jar. ”

Master Guan still didn't understand anything at this time, there must be a box of rouge that was imitated by others, but he looked at it carefully for a long time but didn't find anything different.

Mrs. Guan saw that her master's face was as calm as water, and knew that there must be something strange at this time, so she took the rouge jar in his hand and looked at it carefully, but she also didn't find anything.

"What does that mean?" Master Guan looked at Guan Jingyan and asked.

Guan Jingyan opened one of the cans and said to Master Guan, "This jar of rouge belongs to us, and the other jar looks no different from Guan Ji on the surface, but in fact, it has added excessive gypsum and talc. ”

Master Guan's face sank suddenly, and he secretly said that it was not good.

There are two kinds of rouge of the Guan family, one is cotton rouge, the price is slightly cheap, suitable for ordinary people to buy, and this jar of rouge that was found to be counterfeit is the golden flower rouge that is generally sold to rich and noble families. Due to the cumbersome process and precious raw materials, the general price is about ten taels, which is not a price that ordinary people can afford.

It is conceivable that some people want to take advantage of the status and power of those rich and noble families to make a move on Guan Ji.
