Chapter 1: Gambling
In early autumn, the sun was still scorching the earth, and a few girls in the courtyard of Nuoda bowed their heads and swept away, and from time to time they glanced at Concubine Liu and her maid kneeling at the bottom of the steps.
Liu Qianwen stretched out her mouth and licked her thirsty lips, her eyes closed and fell straight to the side and back, Yuzhu hurriedly supported Liu Qianwen's body and shouted with an anxious face: "Come on, Concubine Liu has fainted, come on, come on......."
The little girl who had been guarding the door pushed the door and entered the house to report: "Niangniang, Concubine Liu has fainted." ”
Bai Suyue frowned lightly, and took a sip from the teacup on the side with one hand.
She naturally heard the little girl's shout, and she knelt for a while before she fainted, obviously acting, this Liu Qianwen became more and more cunning.
"Niangniang, since she is dizzy, if she is punished, she is afraid that she will be talked about, it is better to let her go today, and then think of other ways to clean up tomorrow, so that she knows how to know."
The old mother standing on one side said loudly, Bai Suyue glanced at the nurse who was talking, and she could only give up thinking about it, and waved her hand at the little maid who reported it, and the little maid took the order to go out.
"The princess said, today's matter is over, if Concubine Liu commits it again, she will not be spared, you can go back."
Yuzhu was overjoyed and hurriedly helped Liu Qianwen who had fainted back to Xiaoxiang Garden, as soon as Liu Qianwen's body was glued to the bed, a pair of bright eyes opened and looked at the veil without speaking.
"Mother, but do you want to drink water?" Yuzhu asked out loud.
Liu Qianwen nodded, waited for Yuzhu to send the water cup, drank it all, then blinked and said lightly: "Go and take out all the valuable ones." ”
Yuzhu thought that Liu Qianwen was going to take care of it, and she would be less punished in the future, and she was busy collecting all the valuable items.
Liu Qianwen looked at a few silver hairpins and skirts on the table, looked sideways at Yuzhu, and said in disbelief: "That's all?" ”
Yuzhu nodded, and Liu Qianwen's eyes glanced at the table again, there were only two broken things at the bottom of her dignified daughter's box?
"What about my dowry? What about the things that the prince has given him? Liu Qianwen asked.
"The army is about to go on the march, some time ago, the princess asked the ladies in the palace to donate treasures to support the prince on the grounds that the front line was tight, and the dowry of the mother was carried away by the princess's people! And ......"
"And what?"
Yuzhu sighed and whispered: "Niangniang has never seen the prince since she entered the mansion, and the prince has never rewarded you with anything, so that's all there is to it." ”
As soon as Yuzhu finished explaining, Liu Qianwen was stunned, how stupid was this original owner to give away his own things?
Even Bai Suyue's lame excuse can deceive all her belongings, no wonder she will be forced to die.
Since she crossed over, Bai Suyue has to punish her for various reasons every day, and she obviously didn't even open her mouth to punish her for the crime of assaulting the princess.
It's too passive, and she has to think about being strong.
But she was locked in this cage, pressed by the princess, and a group of women eager to wait for the opportunity to take a bite, and now she has a few taels of silver, it is really difficult to move an inch!
Even if you do business, you have to have capital, where does this money come from? Steal? Rob? She can't even do it.
Bet!
Now that's the only way to go.
"Go and steal the clothes of the two little guys." Having made up her mind, Liu Qianwen instructed Yuzhu.
Yuzhu is her dowry maid, she has been serving by her side since she was a child, and she is conscientious and loyal, and Liu Qianwen is at ease with her.
It didn't take long for the two of them to dress neatly, and Liu Qianwen disguised herself in front of the bronze mirror again, a big mule with a black beard was vivid, and if you didn't look closely, you really couldn't tell that it was painted.
A pair of thick eyebrows, deliberately yellowed skin to cover up the original snow-white skin, at first glance it is really a long-term sun and rain complexion, with some potholes and black moles on the face, which makes the whole person look vulgar.
And Yuzhu, who was almost dressed on the side, was stunned for a long time, staring at the bronze mirror in disbelief, and there was no trace of his original appearance.
When did Niang Niang learn such a clever disguise technique? It's incredible......
"Why are you stunned, hurry up." Liu Qianwen dragged the distracted Yuzhu, and the two looked left and right to quickly sneak out of Xiaoxiang Garden while no one was around, and walked towards the back door with their heads down.
Along the way, Yuzhu tensed his body and didn't dare to come out, Liu Qianwen whispered: "Don't be so nervous, Rao is your mother can't recognize you, the more timid you are, the more people think you have a problem, be normal, go out immediately, don't let people see the clues." ”
After Liu Qianwen's reminder, Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person became natural, the two stepped out of the threshold one after the other, and walked out of the street, Liu Qianwen couldn't help but take a few sharp breaths.
Free air, so fresh!
"Do you know how to get to the casino?" Standing in the bustling city where people came and went, Liu Qianwen asked in a low voice, Yuzhu shook his head and looked at Liu Qianwen with a strange expression.
"Big brother, do you know where to go to the gambling house?" Liu Qianwen grabbed a rough man at any time and asked, the man saw that the person in front of him was uglier than himself and didn't bother to look more, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction and said lightly: "Walk out of this street, turn left and walk to the fork in the road, and you can see it when you turn into the small alley." ”
