Chapter Fifty-Eight: Meeting a Dead Friend in a Foreign Country

I didn't know that someone was observing me for a while, and Tao Yao led Hongfu to continue to move forward slowly and continuously with the flow of people.

To be honest, as a person who has experienced Chang'anfang City and the Imperial City of Shendu, the so-called big bazaar in Tibet in front of me is not very rare. Whether it is gemstones, jade, silk and satin, or jewelry fat powder and kitkat ornaments from other countries in the Western Regions, Tao Yao has seen a lot over the years, and if you want to talk about quality, I am afraid that any of the things she marries will far exceed the ones in front of her. However, she still watched and measured step by step with great interest, not to find some valuable treasures, but to find the unique human fireworks of this area.

Most of the people in Tibet are very simple, and they don't have any hearts. Even if she and Hongfu's overly fair complexion looked very incompatible here, they did not show half surprise or curiosity, but would add a little more enthusiasm to their smiles, which made people feel full of warmth in their hearts at first sight. This is fundamentally different from the arrogant Tibetan nobles they have contacted in the inner city in the past, so that Hongfu, who was quite restrained at the beginning, is also more open, lingering in the downtown for a long time, and quite does not want to go back. Seeing this, Tao Yao just smiled faintly and continued to let her go. It's just that the guards who are with them are hard to hide in the crowd, and they have to be careful and vigilant at all times. If it were someone else, it might be over if you deal with it casually, but in the face of this master, they can't urge it, they can't ask it, except for obediently obeying orders, there is no other way to think about it, they can only hope that she can go back to the palace as soon as possible, then they can make a deal today.

"Master, do you think this agate stone bead string is particularly beautiful?" Picking up a string of red bracelets and gesturing on Tao Yao's wrist, Hongfu rarely felt that there was something so worthy of her own princess: "The color is very bright, the style is also chic, and it won't be too cumbersome to bring!" Why don't we buy it? Tao Yao has always been negligent in dressing up, and she is even less interested in jewelry hairpins and rings. Even though she tried to convince her many times, her wrists were always empty, without half an accessory.

In the past, when they were in the palace, it was just that, anyway, the identity and status of the princess were there, and no one dared to underestimate it easily. Moreover, they rarely go out, and the Lanyue Hall has always been patronized by outsiders, and it is nothing to be simple and pure. But now this is Tubo, all their lives have changed, and some things can no longer be as arbitrary as before, she still wants to reverse the thoughts of Her Royal Highness the princess as soon as possible.

The garnet-colored agate beads are actually not too good, but the workmanship is exquisite, and the polishing is very good-looking. The complexion as white as snow, lined with the bright red agate beads, is also more and more clear and translucent, like the cinnabar mole printed on the heart, and the comparison between the two reveals an amazing and glamorous color. Tao Yao squinted, and immediately asked for a price: "Boss, how is this bracelet sold?" ”

Although the items sold in this stall are single, most of them are in good condition, attracting many people to gather here, so before Taoyao, there were already four or five customers surrounding the stall owner. It was a young merchant, with a handsome face, and a kind smile, even if there was a commotion around, when he heard Tao Yao's question, he still smiled and waved his hand: "Wait a minute, you'll be here soon!" ”

"How does it feel like you're from Chang'an when you listen to the accent?" Hongfu's eyes widened when she heard this, and she couldn't help but secretly bite her ear with her master: "But looking at his appearance, it doesn't seem that he is from the Central Plains." The high nose and deep purpose are typical of the people of the Western Regions at first glance, but this country accent is very authentic, which makes her involuntarily feel familiar.

"It's not surprising." Tao Yao was not in a hurry to urge him, and while watching the man busy there, he replied softly: "Chang'an is also a place where merchants from all over the world gather, and people from the Western Regions often come and go. After a long time, it is not uncommon for people to learn any accents, even if they settle down in the local area. "Back then, in the major markets of Chang'an, she saw a lot of this kind of people. It's just that Hongfu should only be taking care of herself at the time, so she didn't pay attention.

"This girl has good eyesight, and our head of the family has indeed lived in Chang'an for many years." A gentle and pleasant female voice sounded from the side, but it naturally took over the words of Tao Yao and the others, and the accent, and even the voice, were also the same familiar, causing Tao Yao to frown unconsciously.

"Do you want to buy this bracelet, I'll help you pack it up first, you see ......" The woman in a hufu and a leather jacket continued to greet warmly, and before she could finish speaking, a title that was already a little unfamiliar to her rang in her ears with a little hesitation: "Sister Lin Lang...... Is that you? ”

"You ......" was about to get a sandalwood locket on the side, but her hand froze in place, the woman raised her eyes in a daze, but unexpectedly crashed into a pair of eyes that were as warm as spring water: "You...... Do you know me? It's been too long since anyone has called this name, and since she left her homeland and ran away thousands of miles away, she never thought that there would be a day when she would meet her old friend.

It's just that, at this moment, she not only bumped into it, but also touched two of them. Looking at the pair of masters and servants in front of her who were wearing Hufu but still did not hide the beauty of the woman, her mind was in a trance for a moment. It's as if she suddenly returned to that spring day many years ago, in the Tianshui Ju in the afternoon, the person who changed the fate of her life appeared in front of her in the same attitude. Unexpectedly, fate went round and round, and after changing the time and place, they were reunited again.

"How can you forget that?" Looking at the still slender figure and slightly rough delicate face of the woman in front of her, as well as the impressive blue eyes in her memory, Tao Yao smiled purely and happily for the first time: "Sister Lin Lang, I haven't seen you for many years, you still have the same demeanor, so people can't take their eyes off." ”

"The county lord...... There is also the Red Fu Girl......" called in a low voice, Lin Lang's eyes were red, but he was also extremely happy: "I really didn't expect to meet you here!" ”
