Huaxi didn't seem to see Mu Xi's ambiguous smile, and responded casually, the porcelain box was cold to the touch, like someone's face, but she felt hot in her heart.

Mu Xi saw that Huaxi didn't care much, and said that he would be wrong, so he didn't dare to say anything more.

Huaxi lifted the lid and sniffed, the pale green transparent paste, exuding the fragrance of mint and mugwort. Cui Ming picked off the ointment the size of her little fingernail and helped Huaxi rub it on her temples. As the ointment seeped in, the cool feeling swam down the temples to the entire head, and Huaxi felt that the seven orifices were clear, which was very comfortable.

The fleet set off, and through the half-open window in the cabin, Huaxi saw the leading big boat, and a faint smile rippled on the corner of her lips.

In the next seven or eight days, the symptoms of seasickness in Huaxi almost disappeared, and he could occasionally go to the deck to blow the wind.

On the 11th, the fleet arrived in Bozhou, changed carriages and traveled by land, and traveled north for five days to Lingzhou. Lingzhou is located in the northwest, its Seiko ladies silk palace fan is famous for its exquisite and gorgeous flowers, and it is the tribute of Lingzhou to the inner palace every year.

The team was going to rest in Lingzhou for three days, and the next day Xiao Wu came to look for Huaxi and invited her to go to Lingzhou City together. Xiao Wu's family has a business in Bozhou, and the shopkeeper in Xiao's shop waited outside the post house early in the morning, and after Xiao Wu and Huaxi came out, he hurriedly greeted them and invited them to get into the car.

Lingzhou city in the wide slope street everywhere can be seen to sell the fan of the shop, in addition to the silk silk weaving, the fan surface is made of bamboo, wood, paper, bird feathers, etc., the fan handle has ivory, tortoiseshell, jade, the fan handle is carved by the skillful craftsman, carved, ironed, drilled out of various patterns, placed at the door of the shop, looking at the five colors from afar, it is extraordinarily good-looking.

The shopkeeper of the Xiao family took Huaxi and Xiao Wu to the largest shop in Lingzhou City.

The variety of doors in the shop is a little overwhelming.

Huaxi didn't talk much since she went out, Xiao Wu looked at her alone, picked a palace fan, and asked, "The fan here is no worse than the tribute palace fan, and there are many tricks...... Huaxi, you see that the fan surface of this butterfly wearing flowers is so well embroidered. ”

"Hmm." Hua Xi answered, and picked up the folding fan of the small sandalwood bone next to him and fiddled with it, "This one is not bad." ”

Xiao Wu hurriedly said: "If you like it, wrap it up." I'll pay the bill today, so don't fight with me, this fan isn't worth a few dollars. Although you don't lack these, it is always a little bit of my heart. ”

Huaxi smiled, "Sister is polite." That being the case, I will take it. ”

Xiao Wu was delighted, "Okay, quick, the shopkeeper will wrap these two fans." ”

Xiao Wu chose another ten to wrap up the palace fans of various colors, and instructed the shopkeeper: "Wrap it beautifully, I will bring it back to the princess." ”

The two of them went out of the shop, Xiao Wu was not restrained just now, and changed his way to find a conversation with Huaxi, and the words intentionally or unintentionally revealed the benefits of the King of Thailand.

Yin Yuanye didn't give up, and thought about being a lobbyist through Xiao Wu. Huaxi was silent, leaving Xiao Wu alone to talk to himself. Xiao Wu saw that Huaxi didn't react, and knew that he had said enough today, and besides, the King of Thailand's thoughts could not be realized by saying three or two sentences, so he shut up.

Xiao Wu didn't speak, and Huaxi asked the shopkeeper of the Xiao family: "Is there an incense shop in Lingzhou City?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "There are one or two." ”

Huaxi proposed to take a look, and the shopkeeper looked at Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu nodded secretly. The shopkeeper led the two of them to go to see the incense.

The car walked out of Guangxie Street, walked along the Chengqu River for a quarter of an hour, and stopped at a small two-story building near the river.

As soon as I got out of the car and entered the shop, I heard a young man of thirteen or fourteen years old introducing spices to customers. Xiao Wu was about to ask, but he didn't want to be stopped by Huaxi.

"Uncle Li, the gate of your house is facing the bend of the Quhe River, and the river is in the shape of a reverse bow. This is antibow water. In terms of luck, this is called anti-bowing. The reverse bow causes people to oppress and nervous, and there are many diseases such as heart and abdomen, and in severe cases, it can cause bad luck, so it is necessary to relieve the evil. ”

That Uncle Li nodded vigorously and said yes, "I really want Brother Xiao Yun to say it." ”

Brother Xiao Yun said without hurrying: "You spend that dozens of taels of silver to ask for an old way, it is better to spend a few taels of silver in our shop to buy some spices to relieve the evil." You see, sandalwood is the most appropriate. The new arrival of the old sandalwood in the shop has a warm and delicate smell. If you want, the shop can help you make honey and then send it. You can also add some pine resin, cedar, and rosemary that has just come in from Qishan, which can be soothed by burning or placed in the flower smoke indoors. ”

Uncle Li was stunned when he heard this, "Okay, well, listen to Brother Xiao Yun." ”

Huaxi sounded interesting, and it was the first time she had heard someone associate aromatherapy with feng shui. Although she doesn't pay attention to feng shui, she also has the attitude of believing it or not, listening to the guy's talk about how to dispel evil, thinking about it, and interjecting: "It would be better if there was Tianmu." ”

Suddenly, I heard a female guest speak, and the old man and Xiao Yun turned around together, and saw two female guests wearing stalks standing at the door, and a person standing next to them. This person is known to Brother Xiao Yun, and he is the big shopkeeper of Debao Zhai in the city.

Brother Xiao Yun smiled all over his face, "Shopkeeper Xiao, why are you here?" You and the two girls sit down first, and I'll come after talking to Uncle Li. San'er, serve tea to Shopkeeper Xiao. ”

That Mr. Li is a wealthy man in the city, and there are several granges outside the city. Since I moved from the countryside to the city and changed my house a few years ago, I feel that everything is not going well. I heard that someone else introduced a Taoist priest, and I was about to look for it, but I met Brother Xiao Yun on the way, and was pulled into the shop. He was worried about resolving the evil spirit of the house, and what Huaxi said naturally remembered.

"Brother Xiao Yun, what is the Tianmu that the girl said just now? Is there anything in the shop? ”

Brother Xiao Yun heard of Tianmu for the first time, and he really didn't know how to explain it to Uncle Li, and he was afraid that Uncle Li wouldn't buy the spices in the shop because he couldn't explain it, so he scratched his head, bowed to Huaxi and asked, "Listen to the accent, the girl is from out of town, I don't know if there are other names for Tianmu in your mouth?" ”

Huaxi couldn't help but glance at Brother Xiao Yun twice, this guy is really smart, not to say that he doesn't know, but to say that he is not local, and there is a slight deviation in the name of the spice.

"Tianmu is a thousand-year-old cedar, its wood smell is sweet and far, can prevent disease and drive away evil spirits, refreshing and pleasant, convergent, calm body and mind, monks and practitioners in monasteries mostly use this thing to assist in meditation. If there is no one in the shop, it is okay to use what Brother Xiaoyun said just now. ”

Brother Xiao Yun glanced at Huaxi twice, and after listening to what Huaxi said just now, he knew that this was an expert, but when he heard the voice, he felt that he was not very old, and he couldn't help but secretly feel surprised.

"Oh, the old cedar is a rare thing, I'm afraid we won't be able to find one or two pieces in Lingzhou City. Uncle Li, do you want to change what I just said. ”

When Mr. Li heard that there was no Tianmu, he gave up, and turned his head and asked Brother Xiao Yun to choose a few good spices to wrap up.

After sending away Uncle Li, Brother Xiao Yun smiled and said: "I heard that the girl is an expert, the shopkeeper is not here today, the small movable goods are limited, and some high-quality materials can only be taken out by the shopkeeper's words." ”

Huaxi smiled, looked at Brother Xiao Yun with his scarf, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to see the spices, you can introduce me to the introduction shop, if you are interested, I will send someone to pick it up." ”

Brother Xiao Yun didn't dare to slack off, and introduced the spices in the shop to Huaxi one by one. Lingzhou is not a big place, and the spices are naturally not as complete as Shangjing, but most of them are imported from Qizhou, and the words also mention the spice market in Qizhou.

The more Huaxi looked at this little Yun brother, the more he felt that he was a talent that could be created, articulate, and active, and the most rare thing was that although he was not proficient in spices, he was much better than the guys in the ordinary shop.

She was thinking about whether to ask Shopkeeper Xiao about this little Yun brother for a while. Earlier, she had thought that Xiyue was the country of spices, and with this unique geographical condition, although she had the support of King Xin, it was impossible to take care of her generation. She didn't want to rely on Shin Wang blindly, so some things had to be planned earlier.

Huaxi casually ordered two spices and asked Brother Xiao Yun to take them and look at them. After the person left, he asked the shopkeeper Xiao about the person's situation. Xiao shopkeeper said that Brother Xiao Yun was a guy who bought from the Qizhou market from the owner of this shop, there was no one in the family, he had been in this store for more than a year, he was diligent and clever, and he supported the shop in the absence of the shopkeeper.

Huaxi secretly made a note and prepared to go back and talk to King Xin to see if he could buy someone.

Xiao Wu saw Huaxi inquiring about Brother Xiaoyun's situation on the side, and thought that Huaxi had opened an incense shop in Dahua, and he also guessed seven or eight points about Huaxi's thoughts, and for a while he wondered whether to tell the King of Thailand about it and buy someone and give it to Huaxi.

Huaxi chose a white sandalwood, and was about to get up to leave, and walked to the door, but saw Ouyang Zheng standing next to the carriage, and a woman dressed in a palace walked down from the carriage. The woman got out of the car, Ouyang Zheng lowered his head and said something to the woman, his face was not as cold as before, it seemed to be a little softer.

Huaxi was stunned, and Xiao Wu on the side had already saluted Ouyang Zheng with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I have met Lord Ouyang, and I actually met my lord here." Who is this ......? ”

Ouyang Zheng caught a glimpse of Xiao Wu at this time, and turned his head to look at Xiao Wu's side.

Seeing him looking at him, Huaxi hurriedly blessed himself and said, "Lord Ouyang." ”

Ouyang Zheng frowned almost imperceptibly, "Huaxi, why don't you bring a waiting maid with you when you come out?" In case something happens."

Under the scarf, Huaxi pouted and said, "Cui Ming is not happy, and Mu Xi stays to take care of her." When Mrs. Xiao came out with her, the guards also saw it...... Besides, with the king and princess of Thailand in Lingzhou City, there will be no one to make trouble at this moment. With that, Huaxi turned his head to look at Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "My lord's words are not right. I have something, and I can't let Huaxi have something. There is a shop of the Xiao family in Lingzhou City, and when I came out today, I asked the shopkeeper to bring two guys to follow, and there will be no chaos. Besides, we've already finished reading it here, so let's go back to the post house. ”

Ouyang Zheng said: "I'll send someone to send you back." ”

Huaxi refused, "Thank you, sir." It's not far from the inn, so you don't have to bother sending someone to send you off. The adults still have something to do, so I won't bother. Sister, let's go. ”

Seeing that she didn't agree, Ouyang Zheng didn't argue with her, so he ordered directly: "By the way, you take two people to send the girl and Mrs. Xiao back." ”

Ouyang Zheng insisted on sending him off, but Huaxi didn't refute it anymore, and stepped out of the incense shop and got into the carriage.

Ouyang Zheng looked back at Huaxi leaving, his face turned cold, he turned his head and glanced at Xiao Wu again, that look made Xiao Wu feel cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly said goodbye to Ouyang Zheng and the palace girl, and hurriedly followed Huaxi out.
