188 (Where's the entrance?) )
"It's one of the reasons, but Hua Xinyue and I met a noble person!" After Zi Ling'er finished speaking, she gave Hua Xinyue a look.
Hua Xinyue continued: "We met Du Zaikang, who is the young master of Du Mansion of Yaowu Auction House!" ”
"What? What kind of luck are you guys? Chongming looked at Zi Ling'er and Hua Xinyue with a questioning face, Zi Ling'er's luck has always been good, like the pride of heaven favored by God, but I didn't expect Hua Xinyue to follow Zi Ling'er to get wet, it's really amazing.
"Hehe, our luck is good~ Du Gongzi saw our two black eyes, and guessed that we were from Yunxian Mountain, and gave us an invitation to go to the auction to bid for the elixir." Hua Xinyue is in a good mood, her mouth is full of food, and although the words are not clear, it is enough for those who listen to understand it.
When Qian Yun listened to Hua Xinyue's words, her eyes flashed with surprise slightly, but she was also shocked, and then she regained her composure and continued to eat silently.
After Zi Ling'er squinted at Tilt Yun, she asked, "Senior Brother Tilt Yun, when are we going?" ”
Tilt Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "...... after eating"
……
The location of the Yaowu auction was very conspicuous, belonging to the middle of the Imperial City of the Eastern Regions, where the towers were all built tall and the streets were prosperous, completely different from the streets where Zi Ling'er and the others lived.
The road is wide, with chariots of wealthy families and soldiers on horseback hurrying through, and there are vendors selling snacks and trinkets on both sides of the road, and the doors of the door-to-door business are wide open to welcome their customers.
However, the door of the Yaowu Auction House was closed, and Zi Ling'er knocked on the door, but no one opened it......
"Strange, why didn't the door open?" Hua Xinyue looked at the surrounding environment, and really couldn't understand why Yaowu's auction was locked in broad daylight, could it be that they were not open today?
"Anyway, we also passed by a place similar to an auction house just now, so they left the door open......" Chongming looked at his partner in front of him with some puzzlement, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"I'll ask." Zi Ling'er walked quickly to a vendor, pretending to look at the hairpin, and asked the proprietress of the vendor.
"Oh, you're from out of town, aren't you...... I don't know and I don't blame you, they Yaowu Auction House has never opened the main entrance, and the main entrance is the decoration. Besides, the things of Yaowu Auction House are expensive, and as soon as the door is opened, any messy people will want to go in and have a look, so it's not very troublesome......"
While chatting with Zi Ling'er, the proprietress put a bracelet into Zi Ling'er's hand, smacked her lips and said, "Little girl, your hands are white and tender, and they are more suitable for this emerald bracelet, do you want to buy one?" ”
"And where is their entrance? How can we get in? ”
Hua Xinyue was holding a hairpin and looking at it, and the vendor proprietress saw Hua Xinyue pick up the hairpin, so she hurriedly stepped forward to sell it, "Girl, look, the texture of this hairpin, the beads on it are specially made by a famous craftsman, but it looks good, how beautiful it looks with your goose-yellow ribbon......" After the vendor proprietress finished speaking, she took the hairpin in Hua Xinyue's hand and inserted it on her head.
Hua Xinyue's diaphragm for no reason dodged back and said: "I'll ...... it myself" and then took the hairpin and didn't wear it, so I put it back.
The proprietress saw that Hua Xinyue didn't seem to like it very much, so she glanced at her with a mean expression, and then went on to recommend trinkets to Zi Ling'er, her eyes radiating golden light.
"Xinyue, which one do you like?" Zi Ling'er looked back at Hua Xinyue, she didn't like these bells and whistles jewelry, she preferred to be as simple as now.
Hua Xinyue's eyes turned around again and again, and finally stopped her eyes on another vendor, which was a vendor selling rock sugar gourds, and the vendor's eldest brother looked at the two of them with a smile, as if he was very honest and honest.
"Ling'er, let's buy one...... flower."
Xinyue doesn't like this vendor's things very much, although it looks beautiful, but she can't comb other complicated and troublesome buns, and those beautiful hairpins and headdresses have nothing to do with her......
It's not as tempting as a string of sugar gourds.
"A string?" March Chinese
Zi Ling'er glanced at the three people behind her, and the three of them also happened to look at them, Zi Ling'er stroked, and then saw that in addition to Chongming, Ling Shan shook his head lightly, and poured Yun as a matter of ignorance.
So Zi Ling'er asked for two strings and inquired about the news they wanted.
On the way, Hua Xinyue ate a sugar gourd and complained: "This Eastern Regions is really a black-hearted city, and they can't pry their mouths open without money...... Ask for directions, and ask for some silver. ”
"Who made us outsiders? Those vendors make our money......" Zi Ling'er didn't buy it for herself, she used to eat it when she went down the mountain before.
As soon as I entered Zi Ling'er, I found that there was a carriage at the door, and several people were guarding the carriage.
"Where are you from?" When one of the guards saw the five of them, he hurriedly stepped forward to intercept the five of them, and he enforced the law impartially that strangers could not be allowed in.
"We're here for the auction!" Zi Ling'er responded.
"Are there any invitations?"
"Yes." Zi Ling'er then gave the invitation to the guard, and the guard looked at it and then looked at Zi Ling'er and Hua Xinyue several times, frowning.
"You're together? Don't you know that you can only invite one person in an invitation? What about other people's invitations? The guard's words made Zi Ling'er a little puzzled, and it seemed that she had to go to Du Zaikang in person to bring everyone into the venue.
"They are my friends, I am acquaintances with Young Master Du Zaikang, and I also ask the eldest brother of the guard to look at my face and let my friend in." After saying that, Zi Ling'er planned to bribe.
"No! Rules are rules! "This guard is quite upright, and the rules are not good for bribes, and the thunder can't be moved, which is indeed respectable.
"Otherwise, I'll go in alone, and my friend will ask you to take care of it for me, what do you think?" Zi Ling'er looked at the guard, and the guard looked at the few people behind him, who were not bad in appearance or others, took Zi Ling'er's invitation, and nodded.
"Then thank you......" After Zi Ling'er finished talking to the guards, she looked at Hua Xinyue and the others, and explained: "I'll go find Du Zaikang and ask him to pick you up, wait for me here, I'll be back soon!" ”
"Okay, you go and get back to ......"
Hua Xinyue also knew that Zi Ling'er had no other way, now they were not worth tens of millions, and they didn't bring so much money, they really didn't have any confidence, they had to rely on relationships to get into the auction house, and if they wanted to keep a low profile, they could only wait for Zi Ling'er.
After Zi Ling'er finished explaining, she hurriedly walked in.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a small courtyard, surrounded by white and pink peony flowers, and there is a rockery behind the courtyard, there seems to be a small waterfall on the rockery, constantly flowing water from top to bottom, and the water flows down to make a rattling sound.
In the middle of the small courtyard sat a woman with gorgeous hair and a jeweled figure. The woman was enjoying the scenery of the stream and mountains, and her slender jade hand was shaking a round fan, and her movements were light.
Behind her stood a maid who was waiting for her, bowing her head slightly and her breast, standing waiting for the summarily dressed woman to call.
As if hearing the sound of the door opening, the woman turned her head slightly, glanced in the direction of Zi Ling'er, and then said to the maid next to her with a dark smile: "It's a beauty, but it's a pity that the makeup and hair are simple and too elegant......"
The woman's voice was very small, Zi Ling'er didn't hear it at all, and seeing that the woman was not the person she was looking for, she hurriedly walked inside, planning to find a guard to ask Du Zaikang's location, so that she could let her partner in as soon as possible.
After entering the inner courtyard, Zi Linger saw more rich people wearing gold and silver, walking together and talking and laughing. Zi Ling'er walked for a long time, but she only saw a few scattered figures, among them were some pampered rich people, and she didn't see a single guard......
This huge inner courtyard is full of flowers and plants, ponds, bridges and pavilions, and Zi Ling'er doesn't have an imperial sword, so she can't find the person she is looking for for a while, but she is a little overwhelmed......
"This girl, I see you've been patrolling here for a long time, but you're looking for something?"
