Chapter 143
The agreed location is an inconspicuous private house in the town, which looks ordinary on the outside, but is very large on the inside, which was purchased by Zhao Mingxu in the name of Xie Chun.
Ah Ce and Zhao Mingxu were already waiting, there was no light in the room, most of the figures of the two were hidden in the shadows, Wei Zi could only vaguely feel the nobility of these two people from the thin moonlight, guessing that they must not be ordinary people.
"I wonder who your Excellency is?" As soon as they met, Wei Zi asked directly.
"The words on the lipstick are from my hand." Zhao Mingxu also said directly.
"Are you Erniang's friend?" Wei Zi immediately said, hearing what the other party said, her hanging heart was a little relieved.
"Sort of." The man in the shadows on the opposite side spoke.
"Your Excellency said that you can let my younger brother Wei Yao participate in the imperial examination, but is it true?" Wei Zi asked again, "I just don't know what you want me to do?" β
"Nature is true, and the things to be done are simple", Zhao Mingxu said lightly, "Someone will go to the Rouge Pavilion to investigate, if you ask about the origin of your lipstick, you will answer that you made it yourself." β
"Why is that?" Wei Zi was puzzled.
"You don't need to know why, just say if you can do it." The man's voice was cold and indifferent, without a hint of ups and downs.
Just say that, of course, it's not difficult, and in order to prevent the rest of the rouge shops from competing, Rouge Pavilion has always been secretive about the source of lipstick, and has never revealed that it is made of glass, and the only few insiders, except for Wei Zifandai, are only Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Wang, who met by chance that day.
"But I know that the lipstick is made of glass, not only me, even if I say so, others may not believe it, what if he finds out the truth through other channels?" Wei Zidao.
"You don't have to worry about this," Zhao Mingxu said, "As long as Shopkeeper Wei admits that this lipstick is your doing, there is no need to worry about it." β
When Wei Zi heard him say this, he must have thought of a countermeasure a long time ago, so he didn't bother anymore.
"If you only do this, it will naturally not be difficult", Wei Zi paused and spoke: "It's just, how do you want me to believe that you can do what you promised?" β
Wei Zi thought that the other party would find a way to convince herself, at least to reveal her identity to reassure her, but she didn't expect a cold sentence from the other side: "Believe it or not, it's just that if you miss this opportunity, your younger brother Wei Yao will never want to enter the imperial examination for the rest of his life." β
Wei Zi's heart was shocked, and the thoughts in her mind turned a thousand times, in fact, whether she believed it or not, it would not hurt her to say this, and it was even possible to use this to bring benefits to herself, since this was the case, she had no reason to refuse.
"Okay, I promise you." Wei Zi said, "It's just that I didn't make this thing after all, Liuli girl's ......"
"You don't have to worry about it."
ββThis is the last thing Wei Zi heard from the mysterious man's mouth, after going back, she also opened the shop as usual, during which a few people asked her about the origin of this lipstick, Wei Zi didn't know if it was the person the man said that day, anyway, she said nothing as usual, and she was really asked tightly, so she would imply that she did it herself.
As for the source of the words on the lipstick, Wei Zi also said that a friend of her helped write it.
Emperor Xuan's people checked and checked, and only found Wei Zi, the proprietress of Rouge Pavilion, and the reason why Zhao Mingxu's words appeared on lipstick was because Liuli had a good relationship with Wei Zi, and she asked Zhao Mingxu to write it.
This is also a fact, but the glass was removed from the lipstick maker, but as a friend, Emperor Ming Xuan didn't pay too much attention.
"It's all soldiers." Looking at the results of the secret agent's investigation, Emperor Ming Xuan smiled quite self-deprecatingly, just looking at the name Song Liuli, he couldn't help but feel some ridicule in his heart.
- This second child really surrendered his identity, and he was even entangled with a peasant woman.
Soon after this happened, Wei Yao's background was quietly erased, and their mother changed from Youling to an ordinary peasant woman in another place, and she was no longer from a lowly background, so Wei Yao could also participate in the imperial examination justifiably.
Wei Zi didn't know how the man did it, but when she told her brother about the news, he was so happy that he was stupid, and then his eyes showed unprecedented vitality, Wei Zi felt that no matter what happened in the future, her choice was worth it now.
Later, Wei Zi heard that Mrs. Wang had a sudden emergency, and soon died, she broke out in a cold sweat on her back, and she didn't want to think deeply, she only felt lucky, fortunately she agreed to the man's request at that time.
A month later, the pearl came out of the moon, Shi Yong put a full moon wine for the twins, and the glass, amber, coral, and grass were all listed, and Zhou Xiaoshu happened to come back from other places, so he also came to eat the banquet.
At the full moon banquet, Shi Yong announced the names of the two children, Shi Guiji and Shi Guishu, hoping that these two children can be like their little uncle and have good knowledge in the future.
Most of the people who came to congratulate Shi Yong were business friends, and of course, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Shi family, and everyone congratulated Shi Yong's newly-acquired twin sons.
The eldest brother of the Shi family is even more envious, although the Zhao family also gave birth to two children, but both children are daughters, he doesn't say it, but he is also looking forward to his son in his heart.
I didn't expect that the third daughter-in-law was born the latest, but she was a man in one fell swoop, and she was two in her life, and now it seems that the three of them are the most blessed after all.
There are also many neighbors in Dawan Village and surrounding villages, who used to have a good relationship with Shi Yong, and Shi Yong had the intention of showing off his son, and one of them was invited.
In the past, or intentionally or unintentionally, people who laughed at Shi Yong for not having a son, but now they are all gone, and look at other people's mansions, and then think about other people's tofu workshops, it is really envious.
Except for his own family, no one knows that this house is actually Liuli's, because no one will deliberately emphasize this matter, the parties will not, and Liuli will not.
If you say that she has the most heart, there is only the Li family in the entire Shi family, but now she is too busy to take care of herself, because the old lady quietly stuffed Shi Qiang with silver money, so that the Li family found out, and now the two are quarreling, how can she care about this.
Everyone thought that Shi Yong had made money by opening a shop, so he had placed such a good two-entry mansion in the town, and he was envious and flattering for a while.
After drinking the lively full moon wine, it is time for Liuli to go back to Dawan Village. She has been in town these days, taking care of her eldest sister in confinement, and helping to inquire about the house by the way.
Now that the eldest sister is out of the moon, she is not in a hurry about the house anyway, she only told her repeatedly before leaving, and did not ask her sister and brother-in-law to move out.
