Chapter 13 Makeup Powder
After waiting for a stick of incense, Wanxiang took a deep breath before sitting up, squinting her eyes and shouting, "Qi'er!" ”
"I'm going to boil water."
Hearing Xiao Huaijin's voice, Wanxiang hurriedly sat up straight: "Wang...... Rajah. ”
"You've slept too long, and the boiling water is cold."
“……”
Xiao Huaijin raised his eyes to look at a large piece of swarthy on Wanxiang's face, and put down the tea cup in his hand: "Have you finished copying it?" ”
Wanxiang looked down and saw that the words she had copied had been printed with a large piece of ink: "The subordinates originally copied it, but now it ......"
"Have you memorized it?"
“……”
"Back."
Wanxiang rubbed his eyes: "If Yue Ruoji is ancient, the saint is also in heaven and earth, and he is the first of all sentient beings." Viewing the opening and closing of yin and yang is the gateway to life, knowing the door of survival and death, and planning for all kinds of things, reaching ...... Up to ......"
"The truth of the heart."
"Yes, it makes sense."
"What else?"
“……”
"How many hours have passed, and you have memorized these two sentences?" Xiao Huaijin had a straight face: "It seems that you are not only shameless, but also have not learned countless things." ”
Wanxiang pouted: "What the prince said is true." ”
She was suddenly so obedient, Xiao Huaijin was actually a little uncomfortable.
I listened to Wanxiang muttering to herself: "See the change of me, and guard the door ......"
In one breath, he memorized the whole 'Close' from beginning to end, and said at the end: "The subordinates are dull, Mr. Guigu is unfathomable, and it is really difficult to memorize these."
Even if you write it down, you can't get a glimpse of it. Don't embarrass your subordinates in the future. ”
Xiao Huaijin stood up and took the handkerchief handed over by Liang Cuo, walked to Wanxiang, and after thinking for a while, he directly threw the handkerchief on the case: "Wipe your face well." ”
"I heard that there is a Zhang Yuanwai in Beixun, and his third aunt ate the wrong thing and died violently at home. The princess of Southern Xinjiang doesn't know the plants and trees of the Central Plains, could she also eat the wrong thing? ”
Wanxiang lowered her head and listened, all the sudden deaths of the aunt of Beixun Zhang Yuanwai's family were done by her.
She immediately understood what Xiao Huaijin meant: "Even if the emperor didn't let Princess Heqin enter the palace in order to kill the sharp spirit of southern Xinjiang, but in the end, it was Princess Pingnan, who lived in the imperial city and lived and ate like ordinary people, how could she eat the wrong thing?"
The emperor still wants to be courteous to the envoys and princesses, and he will not let her have an accident in the imperial city. ”
"But I still want her to eat the wrong thing." Saying that, Xiao Huaijin pinched her face: "So you don't have to marry her, what do you say?" ”
"The subordinates have just recited 'clutch and guard, first follow its will', why the emperor pointed out the princess of southern Xinjiang to the prince, the prince should be clear.
King Yi and Concubine Yuan were tight, the little emperor was eyeing the prince, and the southern Xinjiang iron cavalry was recuperating. If there really is a day...... Perhaps, Princess Heqin will help the prince. It's not necessarily all bad. ”
"So, you want me to marry her?"
Wanxiang picked up the handkerchief in front of her and thought for a long time before answering: "The prince can't resist the decree." It is even more important to offend southern Xinjiang and poison the people in the territory. ”
She spoke without the slightest hint of daytime. Xiao Huaijin listened, although he looked indifferent, but there was a little loss in his words: "Okay, then marry." ”
He didn't say a word anymore, and walked out of the courtyard of Wanxiang step by step. After that, he didn't see Xiao Huaijin again for half a month.
He was just the same as always, standing in the corner every night looking at the girl in red on the roof, and he couldn't help but think: what the hell is she looking at?
……
Most of the incense stayed in the courtyard honestly, occasionally changing into men's clothes, wearing Xiao Huaijin's white jade crown on her head, pretending to be a jade-faced boy, carrying Xiao Huaijin to take Qi'er to visit the long street of the imperial city.
Xiao Huaijin also turned a blind eye and pretended not to know.
Qi'er followed behind Wanxiang and urged: "Childe, let's go back?" ”
"What are you doing so early? The prince will not find out. ”
"The prince won't find out? When you say this, do you believe it, childe? ”
"I don't believe it." Saying that, Wanxiang followed her memory into the shop, smelling the fat powder inside. When the shopkeeper saw the jade crown of the incense, he hurriedly greeted him: "Little boy, what do you choose?" Give it away? ”
Wanxiang asked directly: "Shopkeeper, there are good goods upstairs?" ”
"Little boy, please upstairs."
Wanxiang took Qi'er upstairs, and the dazzling rouge gouache was packed in a delicate box. Wanxiang didn't look at anything else, just stared at a box that seemed to be dilapidated and had nothing new: "Shopkeeper, can you open this box for me to see?" ”
"The little boy is as wise as a torch!" The shopkeeper hurriedly took the box: "Ordinary people think that this is a broken box, and it can't contain any good things, only the little boy can see the difference at a glance." Here, it's the Spirit ......."
"Is it the herbs collected from the Lingshan Mountain in front of the Ten Thousand Poison Caves, and made of rice flour talc?"
"The little boy even knows about the Ten Thousand Poison Caves?" The shopkeeper looked at the person in front of him in surprise, and while taking the box and opening it, the incense was taken into his hand and sniffed carefully......
Sure enough, it was the smell of the makeup powder used by my mother. But the makeup powder was made by my father, and as for which herbs from Lingshan were used, it is not clear to the incense until now.
Smell it carefully: "Shopkeeper, how much more of this kind of makeup powder do you have?" ”
"That's it."
"Just a box?"
"yes."
"And where did you get that?"
"This ...... Don't ask, let's make a living from this, it's inconvenient to tell the little boy. ”
Wanxiang thought about it and was about to take out the silver taels, but the makeup powder box in her hand was taken away. Wanxiang raised her eyes and saw that she was a girl in men's clothes like herself.
"This makeup powder tastes very ...... very special," said to the person behind him, "Give money." ”
Ji'er looked at the person in front of him in a daze, the shopkeeper was very embarrassed, and said to the person who grabbed the makeup powder: "Childe, we have other makeup powders here, let's take a look?" ”
"Didn't you say this powder is the only one in the store? Then don't look at it. ”
Wanxiang stood in place and looked at this 'man', his body size was not much different from his own, and his facial features were not unusual, but they were quite pleasing to the eye when they got together. Listening to the stiff Central Plains words, Wanxiang couldn't help but think of the princess from southern Xinjiang.
The shopkeeper also argued for Wanxiang: "Let's not say that the thing is what this little boy took a fancy to first, this little boy is a flat ......"
"Shopkeeper, I don't want this makeup powder, let this son go." Hearing the word 'Ping', Wanxiang was afraid that he would say the name of King Pingnan, could it be that the white jade crown he was wearing made the shopkeeper see where he came from?
The shopkeeper immediately smiled all over his face: "Eh, good! What else is the little boy? ”
Wanxiang looked at the person who grabbed the makeup powder with her: "No." ”
