Peony has been silently following Jiang Mengyun's side, not saying a word from beginning to end, as if he is a lifeless puppet, and will only listen to people's words and act.

Empress Xue was not at ease with her, and this peony was naturally sent to spy on her.

In fact, this peony seems to be quite clever on weekdays, but this cleverness is only manifested in the fact that she can easily clean the house and does not bother her. Knowing that she doesn't love people to follow, she doesn't take the initiative to come forward, and sometimes someone wants to rush into her house, and she can help block it as much as she can.

But these are all loyal under the premise of absolute obedience to Empress Xue's orders.

Her master will always be someone else, and naturally he will not be loyal to herself.

Jiang Mengyun could see clearly that when the two guards checked her things, Peony's eyes were even sharper than theirs, obviously afraid that she would take advantage of this opportunity to take the opportunity to take some news out of the palace.

Jiang Mengyun didn't say much, thanked the two guards, and walked outside the palace with the peony.

It didn't matter to her whether they trusted her or not, Jiang Mengyun knew that in Daliang, no matter how hard she tried, she would never get Queen Xue's true trust.

Since she couldn't avoid staring at her, she naturally had to rely on other methods.

But it's probably really a bad year.

The two guards just checked it, and they had almost scattered Jiang Mengyun's fan pendant, and at this moment they had just left the palace, and after crossing the arch bridge outside the palace and entering the main street of the capital, they encountered a few ruffians who were being chased by officials.

I don't know what happened, but the whole street was very noisy.

Jiang Mengyun was walking in a good way, but the group of people ran around in a panic, and just happened to rush to them, and they couldn't avoid being hit by a strong force, and the whole person was almost knocked out, and the things in his arms were even spilled on the ground.

The official behind him didn't know her, so he hurriedly chased after her, which was good, the unlucky fan fell but fell a little scattered, but was hit by the ruffian to the ground and completely scattered, and was stepped on several times by the official's boots, which was completely wasted.

The fan pendant that turned into a gray suspicious object made Peony frown, she lowered her head and thought for a moment, and suddenly stepped forward to take the pendant in her hand, and then looked at it carefully before handing it to Jiang Mengyun, and said softly: "Girl, this is useless, you see ......"

"Forget it, don't want it, it's really unlucky!"

Jiang Mengyun staggered to his feet, and simply didn't take it, only lowered his head and patted the clothes on his body that had been hit by the man just now, and only raised his head after a while.

"There's a small piece of jade pendant there, which is not bad, if you don't dislike it, take it. I don't have the patience to do this, it's rare to make one, I will never weave a second, those ropes are useless, go back and find a place to throw them. ”

She frowned, already obviously annoyed: "The land of the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how can it be so chaotic? Jiang Mengyun complained and suddenly asked, "Was this how it used to be here?" ”

"What?" Peony was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Mengyun asked again, and Peony naturally shook his head immediately: "How come, this is the capital." Something must have happened, aren't there officers and soldiers chasing after you? ”

"Ahh ”

Of course it's rude, Peony thought to herself.

But the things are gone, do you want to give this ridiculous little jade pendant in her hand to His Royal Highness King Qi?

For your first visit, you should naturally prepare some gifts.

Jiang Mengyun came out suddenly, she only had a fan pendant and a piano score, the fan pendant was made by herself when she had nothing to do before, although the piano score was an old thing when she was in Ningguo before, but it was not very valuable.

It's rare to be able to see His Royal Highness King Qi once, and if you are so contemptuous, you can't even look at peony.

The eldest lady of the General's Mansion has never seen anything in the world. What's more, seeing the world is different now, she has been wiped out, and now her identity is just the orphan daughter of the criminal minister of the enemy country who has fallen into the Great Liang, and she is a person who doesn't even have anything to do.

These days, Niangniang has given her a lot of good things, but they all say that the people of Ningguo are careful and plucked, and she has been poor and rich for a long time, and she is afraid that she will not want to take it out.

When she came, Peony saw that when Jiang Mengyun was preparing a gift, she felt that she was shabby, and now if she really let her only use a tattered piano score to fool people, even Niangniang will be embarrassed.

The little palace maid Peony felt that she had an obligation to take on the façade of the middle palace.

Empress Xue told her to keep an eye on this person, and the best way was to send her to Prince Li's mansion all the way without waves, and then return to the palace clean and without waves. Of course, it's not a good thing to have branches, but now that the branches have grown, what should we do? Do you just leave her alone?

What's more, this sideways branch was not made by Jiang Mengyun himself.

Peony has been serving in her house these days, seeing that she is very stable on weekdays, but she is just a little girl who is powerless, and she is under her nose at the moment, what tricks can she play?

If she can't do this, she will also be a slave of the queen's mother.

Peony thought about it and subconsciously glanced at the shop on the street.

At this moment, it is too late to go back to the palace to get things, and it is even more of a joke to bring a broken piano score like this, she simply took the initiative to propose a compromise solution: "Girl, there is a shop selling ornaments near here, it is still early, the slave maid will accompany you to take a look, it is not too valuable, but there is always something to be thoughtful for the first visit." ”

This is already a good proposal, Peony thinks.

But Jiang Mengyun was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know if he was shy or really felt unnecessary, so he took out a broken book from his arms: "I brought the piano score." ”

Don't mention your broken score!

Peony pouted, this thing can be worth a few pennies, and she still takes it out as a baby.

But there is still some respect on the surface, no matter how disdainful she is, Peony still patiently persuaded her: "The girl still goes and sees, you really don't need to buy too expensive things, or a few dollars, really." ”

Jiang Mengyun blinked.

Along the way, she used her body movements to give Peony countless psychological hints, she kept looking at the fan pendant, and subconsciously looked at the store. Peony watched her very closely, thinking that she couldn't play tricks, but she didn't know that the more concentrated her thoughts, the easier it was to be influenced.

And at this moment, her small action of wanting to capture the old and indulging in the east and west to avoid the real is really thought of by her, and now this peony doesn't know whether she thinks she has no money, or when she is stingy, in short, she has been regarded as a rare iron rooster.

Iron rooster, what a novelty idea.

But no matter how novel it was, she had to do it on purpose.

This peony has been arranged by her side for more than a month, and as long as she is in that room in the middle palace these days, she will hardly leave an inch. She cleans that small room every day, and there is no privacy anymore, no matter what Jiang Mengyun wants to do, it is all under the control of this girl.

This time it was difficult to go out, and Queen Xue directly asked her to follow, but she was afraid that it would be a burden in the future.

If Jiang Mengyun wants to do things, he can't live in the eyes of others forever, and if he wants to get rid of the shackles, brute force alone is not enough, but also his brain.

If you want to tempt people to take the bait, you must first cast the bait.

Jiang Mengyun blinked his eyes and touched the purse on his waist, but his feet still didn't move.

Peony waited for a while, but her heart was dissatisfied and finally her jaw was raised, and her tone subconsciously carried a little mockery: "If the girl doesn't have enough money, the slave maid also has it here, so get together and buy a small object, so as not to lose the face of the mother." ”

"Can you still make up for it?" Jiang Mengyun asked her seriously, and complained in a low voice for Fang Cai's matter before saying, "Well, if you lead the way, it's the first time I've been out of the palace, but I don't know here." I'm afraid that I forgot to look at the yellow calendar when I went out today, why are you so unlucky, eh, you must take the painting well, don't get it again......"

I don't know if I don't want to say the rest of the words anymore or I don't dare to say it again, or maybe I didn't open my mouth because I was afraid of bad luck.

Peony knew what she meant, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, girl, the slave knows." Let the girl come with the slave and maid. ”

The Vermilion Bird Street in the capital of Daliang is very prosperous, and it is not much better than Ningguo.

The road is lined with large and small shops, and there are occasional vendors with stalls. However, Fang Cai's chase had obviously caused chaos here, and when Jiang Mengyun and Peony passed by, they could still see many people picking up objects on the ground to reorganize.

With such a move, it is natural to complain: "What is this, it's easy to just come out of the stall today, this hasn't opened yet, someone knocked over everything first, ah, my baby, this, this, just point to this jade pendant can be sold for a good price, this is broken,!" Why haven't these short-lived ghosts been caught! ”

"Lao Yang, you are too unlucky, this jade pendant looks good, why did you think of putting it out and selling it? Don't you put away such a good thing? But it's also true, these bastards have been making trouble in the capital for a few days, why haven't they been jailed yet! ”

"Where haven't you been imprisoned, don't you know? The officers and soldiers were arrested, but although they were mixed, they were just making trouble, and the government arrested people, but they couldn't convict them, so they were released after two days of detention. ”

"Tell me, what kind of sin can you count as molesting other people's big girls, teasing and teasing children, stealing your steamed buns today, and stealing his cakes the day after tomorrow? There is no way to recognise the sentence according to the law. If you want me to say, the government is too particular, and people like them should take care of the rest, and it would be better to stay for a few more days! ”

As they walked along the road, they walked very slowly, when they heard someone ask, "Eh, it's strange to say, I really haven't seen them before, so good-looking, why did such a gang of people come out?" ”

Finally asked the point, Peony was already going to take Jiang Mengyun to a shop, and when he heard it, he was stunned and slowed down.
