Chapter 22: Stunned
On the second day, Qingluan asked Ziyu to comb a man's hair for her, put on a small soap gauze hat that covered her forehead, changed into a cyan Shu embroidered beard suit, tied a leather belt around her waist, and wore a pair of black deerskin boots on her feet.
I took a turn in front of the mirror and felt very satisfied.
"I'm afraid I can't find a more beautiful woman than the county lord in the capital." Ziyu was sincerely admired.
The lord of his own county is also beautiful without powder, and he looks even more heroic when he wears a bearded suit, and he can't even take his eyes off the woman when she sees it.
Qingluan pursed her lips and smiled, and pulled out a short knife inlaid with gems to look at it, only to see that the blade was sharp and cold.
Swish! Snow Feng sheathed it and hung it on his waist.
This kind of knife is a daily ornament worn by noble princes, and the outer sheath is inlaid with gold inlays, which is very exquisite.
Qingluan had already opened the blade of this knife, and it was only used for self-defense.
During this time, her mother, Princess Fule, went to the palace once, but when she came back, her face was not very good-looking, and since that time, Qingluan was not allowed to mention the matter of speaking to the emperor again, and she herself shirked the invitation of several nobles to the banquet, and was dedicated to recuperating at home.
"What did my mother say? Would you like to travel with us? Qingluan asked Yuzhu, who had just come in from outside the house.
Yuzhu: "The princess asked the county lord to play by yourself, just said that you should be careful in everything, and let Han Zai follow you in the future." ”
Han Zai, who is nearly forty years old, has known that he is a high-ranking guard who follows his mother since Qingluan can remember.
This person wears a gray mask all the year round, is low-key and rarely spoken, and is said to have extremely high martial arts.
On weekdays, if the eldest princess goes out, he must be escorted by car, and after returning to the house, he feeds the horse repair car in the stable, and never has too much intersection with other servants, and the servants in the house know that he is not easy to mess with, and he has the master's blue eyes, so no one dares to provoke.
It's just that Qingluan has never seen him learn from anyone, and he doesn't know how high his martial arts are.
"Oh, okay then." Qingluan strode out, "I won't ride a horse today, let someone prepare a black shed carriage, let's take the carriage to Jinxiu Building." ”
Yuzhu agreed.
Jinxiu Building is a teahouse in Shutaifang, a three-storey wooden building, the building is old, but the inside is bright and transparent.
On the second floor, there is a storytelling field, where the down-and-out scholars and traders in Beijing often spend a small amount of money to listen to books and drink tea.
Because the rapper here is quite talented, and the rap story is more exquisite than others, many nobles from noble families come to listen.
Therefore, the store set up several private seats and stands on the third floor for those nobles to sit in and drink tea and listen to books.
Qingluan's arrival today is not very coincidental, it is said that Mr. Rap came out with a new joke, which actually made Jinxiu Building full of people.
The county lord of Chaoyang was very annoyed, and stood in front of the building with a horsewhip to smoke the shopkeeper.
"I really ate the heart of a bear and a leopard gall! Don't you dare to leave my seat! ”
Chaoyang used to come over to listen to books, so there was a special number for her upstairs in this Jinxiu.
But she hadn't been here for more than a year, and the store had no idea that this noble person would suddenly arrive today, and they couldn't help but be at a loss.
"Ah, I'm really sorry...... "The middle-aged shopkeeper kept making amends to Chaoyang, but he didn't mention making room for settling down.
Because, none of the nobles on the third floor today can afford to be provoked by him, a merchant.
Li Wen stretched out his hand to stop Chaoyang: "Chaoyang, don't embarrass the store, let's come back another day." ”
Qingluan also advised: "There are too many idle people here today, let's go shopping elsewhere." ”
"You don't know, these untouchables are used to cheating, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, if he doesn't vacate the place today, I will definitely smash his yard!" ”
The horsewhip in his hand pointed at the shopkeeper and reprimanded: "Don't hurry up and go to arrange!" ”
The shopkeeper naturally knows the county lord of Chaoyang, this is a lady in Beijing, and it is said that he has forced people to die, but he really can't offend any of the people upstairs today.
After weighing, the shopkeeper's shrewd little eyes glanced at the few masters who seemed to be easy to talk to the county lord of Chaoyang, and repeatedly apologized to Li Wenqingluan, "A few nobles can do well, spare the villain, the villain can't help it." ”
At this time, a head wearing a soap gauze hat poked out from the window on the third floor of Jinxiu Building, glanced at the Chaoyang County Lord and others downstairs, and said to the friends sitting on the other side with a light smile: "The royal family of the Li Dynasty, sure enough, one generation is not as good as the next. ”
The man on the opposite side had his black hair tied at the top, only tied with a hosta, wearing a fish-white fine linen robe, in his twenties, phoenix eyes and thin lips, looking like a scholar, holding a cup of tea and taking a sip, and said: "The Great Qian Dynasty is rotten, and it is rotten from the roots. ”
The man in the soap gauze hat shook his head with a smile, "Brother Feng is worried about the country and the people today." ”
Feng Ximo also smiled: "Feng Mou lives on the people and does business for the people of the world, so he naturally cares about his parents who eat and drink; Like you, I can't wait for everyone to get sick so that I can heal you and study it. ”
Yu Ji opened his eyes and retorted: "The so-called doctor's parents' heart, although I am not talented, how can I be so unbearable as you say!" ”
Feng Ximo put down the teacup in his hand, smiled and said: "Yu Ji, let's get down to business, Feng asked Brother Yu to come here today, or the old saying, my lord is very fond of talent, knowing that your medical skills are outstanding, so I will introduce you, if you are used by him, the future will be just around the corner." ”
Yu Ji wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Feng Ximo, his expression gradually becoming serious, "Dare to ask where your lord is sacred?" ”
Feng Ximo said in a low voice: "Naturally, he is a nobleman. ”
Yu Ji sighed and shook his head: "You and I have been friends for many years, and you should also know Yu Mou's taboo, the family in the palace, things there are treacherous and changeable, maybe it will also harm the children and grandchildren, and Yu will not wade into the troubled water." ”
Feng Ximo glanced at him and said with a smile: "I know that you have been widowed and vegetarian for several years, how can you have any children and grandchildren." ”
Yu Ji's eyes widened, and he angrily pointed at Feng Ximo and said, "You are a vertical son!" How do I know that I will not have it in the future! I...... I'm only four out of twenty, okay......"
Feng Ximo smiled and poured tea for Yu Ji, "Feng Mou lost his words, Brother Yu Ji is young and strong, and now he just hasn't met a beautiful girl who meets your eyes to give birth to you." ”
Yu Ji: ......
The upstairs was talking, and the Chaoyang County Lord downstairs had been dragged away by Qingluan.
Chaoyang snorted and shouted all the way: "This profiteer, who received me a hundred taels of charter silver last year, doesn't want to admit it today......"
She is a dignified Chaoyang county lord, when has she ever suffered such a secret loss, if it weren't for Jianing and Cousin Wen to stop her, she would definitely smash the untouchable dog's head.
Qingluan sighed, looking at Chaoyang's fiery temper and feeling a little helpless.
In the past, she may not have cared about Chaoyang's attitude towards ordinary people, but now she has to admonish Chaoyang to restrain herself.
The county lord of Chaoyang is the daughter of King Xian and the niece of the emperor, and her words and deeds will be noticed by the world, and she may be inadvertently used by someone with a heart.
"Chaoyang, it's just a small people, why care." Qingluan coaxed and persuaded: "Let's go to Peiyang Lake to fish for water chestnuts, most of the water chestnuts at this time are cooked." ”
Qingluan remembers that there are not only water chestnut lotus roots in the shallows of Peiyang Lake, but also cranes in the reeds on the shore.
Sun Li also said excitedly when he heard it: "Yes, let's go to Peiyang Lake!" Then let the fisherman bring the net over, Wen Shizi and I will go to fish and shrimp, and you two will go to fish for water chestnuts. ”
Qingluan: "......"
Wen Shizi walked aside with his hands in his hands, but he didn't say anything.
