Chapter 171: Rivals in love are very red when they meet
On the second day, Xia Ji put on a gorgeous costume, deliberately painted a delicate makeup, and rode a sedan chair to the house next to the second prince's mansion.
"County Lord, why do we have to take a long detour?" The lotus leaf is a little unclear, so it is clear that the post station and the second prince's house are not far away, why does the county lord want to go around in circles?
"Enter through the back door, don't let people see it." Xia Ji's beautiful face was not shocked, but her tone was not good.
Lotus Ye was slightly startled, but hurriedly responded: "Yes." ”
After a stick of incense, the sedan chair that Xia Ji was riding in finally stopped in front of the antique mansion.
The wall is painted with splashed ink cinnabar, which looks solemn and tasteful, and the back door is small but also exquisite, with a doorknob in the shape of a unicorn, and the fierce beast glares angrily.
"County Lord, I'll knock on the door first." Lotus Ye volunteered to walk out.
"Wait." Xia Ji called, she stretched out her slender jade hand and let the lotus leaf help her get off the sedan chair, and said softly: "I'll come personally." ”
Xia Jilian walked slightly to the door, she reached out and grabbed the doorknob and knocked on the door.
The breeze blew her hair, and her face was as calm as a spring water.
Time slipped away minute by minute.
Finally, there was movement inside the door, "Coming, coming~"
It was a crisp and somewhat lively female voice.
Xia Ji's expression tightened slightly, and she pursed her thin lips lightly.
"Squeak", the door was gently opened, only to see a round-faced girl poking her head out of it, looking at the two people in front of her, her eyes were full of suspicion.
She asked, "Who are you?" ”
After seeing the girl's face clearly, Xia Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
This appearance is not to be feared.
Lotus Ye stepped forward and said loudly: "This is my master, I heard that you came here when I passed by, and my master's future husband also happened to like osmanthus brewing, I want to ask the girl if she can come in and learn it?" Rest assured, this money is guaranteed to be sufficient. ”
This set of rhetoric is something they have prepared in advance.
The lotus leaves have already explored this hour of the day, and the smell of osmanthus brewing can be wafting in this yard on time.
And coincidentally, these two princes love this osmanthus brew.
The round-faced girl's facial features were wrinkled together, and her complexion became a little tangled.
In another hour, the second prince should come.
If the second prince looks down on other women, what should he do?
"What's wrong?" At that moment, another voice came from inside the door.
The voice is seductive and a little lazy.
The round-faced girl retracted her head and muttered something to the woman.
After a while, she poked her head out again and smiled very brightly, "My girl said, you can come in." ”
With that, she opened the door and made way for a way.
And when Xia Ji heard that flattering voice, she was like a great enemy.
Her face was as white as snow and frost in an instant, and she looked into the courtyard, only to see two towering begonia trees growing in the courtyard, which looked very beautiful, and the whole courtyard was also extraordinarily elegant.
But the woman who spoke seductively was nowhere to be seen.
"Let's go, county lord." Lotus leaves whispered in Natsuhime's ear.
Natsuki steadied herself, her hand hidden in her cuff clenched, and she stepped inside.
Finally, led by the round-faced girl, they came to another side courtyard.
And there, Natsuki met the woman who spoke with a seductive meaning.
A long black and bright hair was pulled up, a pair of expectant eyes, a pink nose, and a thin lip.
Beauty, just like nature.
And what shocked Xia Ji even more was that this woman was none other than the phoenix she designed to embarrass her that day!
At this moment, the phoenix is personally controlling the heat of boiling osmanthus wine, holding a pu fan in his hand and shaking it gently, and his beautiful eyes are full of seriousness.
Hearing the movement, Phoenix turned his face sideways with a soft smile on his face, "Girl, ...... you"
After seeing Xia Ji's face clearly, the smile faded a little, but he still looked the same, "County Lord, you also like osmanthus brewing?" ”
Xia Ji didn't wait for the phoenix to invite, so she sat down by herself, with a bit of mockery on her smiling face, "Why didn't I know that Phoenix girl you left the Water Lotus Workshop?" Unexpectedly, it moved next to the second prince's mansion! ”
Phoenix handed the fan to the round-faced maid, took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her fingers with some dust, and walked in front of Xia Ji with a step.
There was a deep sense of calmness in her eyes, "I raised enough money, so I naturally bought the deed of sale and left the Water Lotus Workshop, as for moving wherever I want, this is also my freedom, isn't it?" ”
In an instant, the atmosphere became extremely angry.
One of these two people looks as holy as a snow lotus, and the other is as charming as a peony flower, each with its own merits and differences.
"I'll just say why the second prince doesn't come to my post house every day these days, it turns out that it's Jinwu Zangjiao!" Xia Ji naturally automatically left the phoenix from the Water Lotus Workshop because of the second prince's doing.
After all, this Oiran's ransom money is not an ordinary sum of silver.
Even if the phoenix continues to be a guest in the Holy Land of Fireworks, it may not be able to make it up to nearly half a hundred years old.
Phoenix had already expected that there would be such a day when she would face Xia Ji, and she dealt with it with kindness, "The county lord doesn't want to blame the second prince like this, all this is just fate." ”
The meaning of Phoenix's words is that she and the second prince have already cooked raw rice, and asked Xia Ji not to be angry with others.
"Presumptuous!" Lotus Ye trembled angrily, the county lord of her family has encountered difficulties many times since she came to Datang, and now the future male master has not married his own county lord through the door, and he has already raised a beauty outside, which is really too deceitful!
As if she hadn't heard, Phoenix picked up the teapot on the table, poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip gently, and approached Xia Ji with a smile.
It seems to be a deliberate provocation.
Xia Ji laughed angrily, "Phoenix, you can only be called a person if you have self-knowledge, even if you have the favor of the second prince?" In the future, the second prince will only have one concubine, and that is me. And you'll always be just a pet girl raised in a foreign house! ”
This is clearly comparing the phoenix to a concubine who warms the bed, and there is no way to turn over.
She is using her identity to exert pressure.
Phoenix's face stiffened slightly.
The round-faced maid who was controlling the fire saw that her girl had been wronged, and she also understood the identity of the person who came.
She scolded angrily.
"What are you two talking about us! What about the county lord? Even if you marry back, you will be a cousin's wife! Do you think you can be favored by the second prince? As long as my girl is here, you will marry in vain, and the heart of the second prince is placed on my girl after all! ”
Every time the round-faced maid said a word, Xia Ji's complexion sank.
She was delicate like a humiliated white lotus, and her body was crumbling.
