Chapter 15: Disguise
The night is as cool as water.
Qingzhi added a piece of clothing and read a medical book in the room.
But she couldn't read half a word, and when she thought of the so-called rumor, her brows condensed and she couldn't stretch out.
I want to think of a way to crack it, but I have no clue.
She was now almost certain that he must have discovered her identity as a woman, after all, it was him...... Carry yourself to the west room.
Just when he was at a loss, he heard the voice of the finches in the hall: "The third girl is here?" ”
Then came the voice of her third sister Qingqi: "I'm here to see Qingzhi, I'm bored after dinner, come here to relieve my boredom." ”
Immediately, the curtain was lifted, and the figure of the third sister appeared in this room.
The third sister sat on the edge of the Qingzhi bed and said, "What's wrong with you today?" ”
"Sister, I didn't have much." Qingzhi looked down at the book.
"Not really? Why do you have a sad face when you eat? I talked to you, and you didn't hear a few words. The third sister looked at Qingzhi worriedly.
"I'm just a little tired." Qingzhi looked up and said.
"Our father traveled far away and put all the burden on you, my sister knows that you are tired, but I didn't see you like this a few days ago? You and your sister tell the truth. You can't hide it from me. ”
Qingzhi was helpless, closed the medical book, and glanced at her third sister.
The silver hairpin on her head shone brightly in the light, attracting her attention.
Looking at this silver hairpin, she suddenly had an idea.
"Third sister, where does Lu Shikang go every day?" She thought that her third sister liked to wander around, maybe she knew.
"Why do you ask him where he goes?"
"I'll follow him tomorrow."
"Are you crazy?" The third sister Qingqi looked at Qingzhi in shock, her mouth opened wide, and said.
"I'm not crazy, I'll tell you the truth, he probably knows my background. But I'm not entirely sure. ”
"So, you're going to disguise yourself as a woman and follow him to see what he's talking to his little guys, and see if you can overhear anything, right?" The third sister guessed the approximate situation at once.
Aoeda nodded.
"I knew something was going to happen as soon as you frowned. You see, if I don't ask, don't you keep talking about it? ”
"I don't want you to be upset about this matter, third sister."
"This is our family's family matter, how can I stay out of it?"
"Do you think that's going to work?" Aoeda asked.
"If it doesn't work, you can only do it, what better way can you do it? Can you still ask him directly if he has discovered your identity as a woman? ”
"Then tomorrow, I'll put on heavy makeup and go to Wangjiang Tower to see if I can find a seat closer to him and sit down." Qingzhi Road.
"You, what do you think, how eye-catching is it for you to go to Wangjiang Tower as a woman? How could a woman go to Wangjiang Tower alone? When the time comes, you are so conspicuous, how can you overhear something? You have to try to make yourself as unobtrusive as possible. ”
Qingzhi thought about it, this is in ancient times, a young woman appeared alone in a place like Wangjiang Tower, where celebrities and sons gathered, and it was indeed a little too ostentatious, so she looked at her third sister, "What should I do then?" ”
The third sister said: "I will invite a few of my good sisters to go to Wangjiang Tower tomorrow, and you will put on a thicker makeup and go with me as my girl, anyway, my sisters have not seen your women's clothes much, and they will definitely not recognize you." Once you're there, you're free to move around. And, because you're a girl, no one will notice you. ”
"Okay, just do what my sister says."
……
On the second day, it was very good.
The autumn colors are bright, and there are few clouds in the sky.
After Qingzhi got up, he put on men's clothes first, went to the pharmacy, and told Qian Liu that he had something to go out all day today, and let him be alone in the pharmacy.
Then he went back to his room, and took off his men's clothes and put on women's clothes.
The women's clothes were taken from the bird's house when the finch was away, and it was a small lake blue skirt that the girls in Jiangbei City loved to wear.
In order to make Lu Shikang unrecognizable, she put on a thick makeup for herself.
I have never put on makeup, but after I put on makeup, I looked at myself in the mirror, my face was as white as my face, my eyebrows were like mountains, my carmine was like a blooming rhododendron, and my eyelids were exaggerated green and white powder.
The corners of her mouth furrowed, and she smiled at the strange makeup she was looking at under her eyes.
But don't say it, although it is thick, it is not ugly to look at.
This face is really suitable for heavy makeup and light makeup.
was looking at the mirror when the third sister Qingqi came in, and when she saw her makeup, she smiled: "Don't say that the third son of the Lu family can't recognize you, I can't recognize you either!" ”
"That's fine." Aoeda also smiled.
When she arrived in the outer hall, Que'er saw that Qingzhi was wearing her own clothes, and put on makeup, and dressed up as a woman, and asked, "Hey, the fourth son is dressed like this today?" Why is this going? Although she knew that Aoeda was a woman, this was the first time she had seen Aoeda wearing women's clothes since she was twelve years old, and she was still wearing women's clothes that only girls wore.
"I've been a man for a long time, and I'm very bored, so I'll be a girl and go out to play." Qingzhi replied.
The two sisters went out, got into the carriage prepared by Kong Hai in front of the door, and went to Wangjiang Tower.
When they arrived at Linjiang Road under Wangjiang Tower, the two got off the carriage in front of Wangjiang Tower. Kong Hai drove the carriage to a grove on the edge of the Wangjiang Tower, where many grooms were waiting for their master to come out of the Wangjiang Tower, just like him.
The moment the two sisters of the Kong family got off the carriage, in front of a window on the second floor of the restaurant, Lu Shikang was standing, and there was a casual smile on the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, the other sons were all inside the room of the restaurant, and he was the only one standing by the window.
After returning from the window, he came to the railing to find Wu Shan and said, "Let's go." ”
"What? Just go? We've just arrived, third son......"
"Less nonsense."
"Okay, okay, just come." Wu Shan inexplicably felt that the third prince seemed to have a smile on his face, as if he was confident about something.
Just now he was chatting with the entourage of the two other sons, and he finally found someone to talk to, facing the iceberg-like Qi Fang every day in the Lu Mansion, the scheming Zhou Da, and the stunned Wednesday almost suffocated him.
But now that the third prince said that he was leaving, he couldn't stay, so he reluctantly said goodbye to the two entourages who were chatting with him, and then hurriedly ran a few steps to catch up with the third prince who was already going downstairs.
In this way, when Lu Shikang was going downstairs, he happened to meet Kong Qingzhi who was going upstairs.
Qingzhi was walking silently behind her third sister, but when she looked up, she saw Lu Shikang coming down the stairs.
Somehow, the moment she saw him, she subconsciously wanted to shrink into the back of her third sister.
As if he didn't do so, he would see through it.
But she saw that Lu Shikang's handsome face seemed to be expressionless, and she didn't notice her and her third sister at all, so she was relieved not to shrink into her third sister's back.
After Lu Shikang passed by her, she hurriedly reacted, no, what is she here for? Don't you just want to hear what he has to say to his little guy in private?
Now that they're downstairs, they might want to leave, so why are they still here?
Why don't you sneak out and see if you can hear something?
So, she tugged at the back of her third sister's clothes, and when her third sister turned around, she whispered, "I'm going out now." ”
Her third sister nodded, just now she also saw Lu Shikang go downstairs.
Qingzhi turned around, and when he looked down the stairs, he saw that Lu Shikang's figure was no longer visible on the stairs, and when he looked forward, he had already walked to the gate.
She walked lightly down the stairs.
