68 The mountain rain is coming

Shen Yuexi looked at Zhao He, Zhao He's expression was serious, not like he was joking, he was indeed kindly reminding her that inexplicably, Shen Yuexi had a good impression of Zhao He. Although Zhao He's face is cold, he has the same warm place as Zhao Zheng in his heart.

"I'll take you to the rouge shop, there are a lot of beautiful rouge and incense powders of various flavors." With a good impression, Shen Yuexi wanted to take Zhao He for a walk around the capital.

"Okay." Zhao He's eyes lit up a little.

Naturally, the daughter's family can't refuse things like rouge and incense powder. Even Juan'er and Zhicui were secretly happy, they didn't have a chance to visit the rouge shop, and it was good to be able to follow the master to go shopping.

Not long after the rouge shop opened in the morning, the boss was stirring the fire in order to warm up his shop, and when he heard the noise, he turned his head and saw Shen Yuexi and Zhao He and others.

The boss has been in business for many years and has become sharp-eyed, Shen Yuexi and Zhao He, at first glance, are not ordinary women from small families, he hurriedly put down the iron hook in his hand, and stepped forward attentively: "What do the two girls want to choose?" ”

Shen Yuexi and Zhao He came to the counter and looked at the various dazzling boxes, those boxes were porcelain, iron, copper, silver, and the most luxurious was a gold box, which was placed a little higher inside, and was generally not taken out to show people.

"I want that." Zhao He's gaze was directly on the golden box and said to the boss.

The boss lowered his eyebrows and smiled, "This young lady is really a good eye, the rouge in this is made of exotic and extremely precious flowers and plants, the powder is delicate, the fragrance is pleasant, the color is delicate, and it can nourish the skin." ”

The boss enthusiastically introduced a large meal, but he didn't mean to take down the gold box.

"I'll take a look." Zhao He said again.

"That, four hundred and eighty taels of silver, are you sure you want to see it, miss?" The boss asked with a smile.

Zhao He didn't have much concept of Yinliang, she turned her head to look at Shen Yuexi, "Is it expensive?" ”

"It's enough for an ordinary family to use for decades." Shen Yuexi made a rough calculation and said.

Zhao He still didn't have any idea, she turned her head to look at Juan'er, called out, and motioned for her to take the silver out.

Juan'er was a little embarrassed, she only had a hundred taels of silver in her pocket, and this box of four hundred and eighty taels of rouge really scared her. So she looked a little embarrassed and shook her head gently at Zhao He.

Zhao He sighed, "If you don't come out for a walk, I really don't know that this princess can't afford to buy a box of rouge." ”

As soon as the princess said two words, the owner of the rouge shop was stunned.

Shen Yuexi hurriedly pulled Zhao He out of the door of the rouge shop.

Zhao He was still immersed in the frustration just now, and she smiled self-deprecatingly: "In the past, I only thought that the people were suffering in the palace, but I didn't expect the people to be so expensive, and it was a little shabby to line my princess." ”

Hearing Zhao He say this, Shen Yuexi couldn't bear it anymore, so she said: "This kind of sky-high rouge is just a gimmick in the shop, the people are struggling to live, even you are a princess, who would buy such an expensive rouge?" ”

Zhao He looked at Shen Yuexi, didn't say anything, but smiled, this smile was kind, and it was one of the few laughs she had from the bottom of her heart.

Shen Yuexi could naturally see it, so she also smiled, the previous unpleasant hula was gone, she only felt that Zhao He was a lovely woman, looking cold, but in fact, there was a lot of kindness in her heart.

The atmosphere suddenly became intimate, and Zhao He approached Shen Yuexi, "How about you take me to Hualou to see it later?" ”

Hearing Zhao He's request, Shen Yuexi grinned, "How can I wear the clothes of my daughter's house when I go to Hualou, I have to put on a man's clothes and pretend to be one." ”

I heard that she was going to change into men's clothes, Zhao He was more interested, she had grown so old and hadn't worn men's clothes.

"Then you can take me another day." Zhao He whispered.

Shen Yuexi smiled and nodded.

Juan'er and Zhicui watched from behind them suddenly become so good, puzzled and relieved, so they glanced at each other and smiled.

"Speaking of interesting places in the capital, there are a lot of them, if you are not in a hurry to return to the palace, I can take you to see them." There was no barrier, and Shen Yuexi and Zhao He chatted more and more.

Zhao He nodded, already fully trusting Shen Yuexi. She has been in the palace since she was a child and has no friends, Shen Yuexi is her first friend.

As the two were talking happily, a man with a sneaky look appeared in front of them, looked left and right, and walked straight towards Shen Yuexi.

Shen Yuexi and Zhao He chatted happily, so they relaxed their vigilance a little, and after finding that the man opposite was suspicious, the man had already walked very close, holding a dagger in his hand.

Shen Yuexi's first thought was to push Zhao He away, ready to deal with this man with his bare hands.

Just when the man stabbed Shen Yuexi with a dagger, suddenly someone reached out and pinched the man's arm as if falling from the sky, and then folded it back, Shen Yuexi heard the click of broken bones, followed by the man's terrible scream.

Zhao He and the others were frightened, and when they looked closely, it was Zhao Zheng who came.

"Seventh brother?" Zhao He called blankly.

"Seventh Prince, are you okay?" After a while, Xiaoluzi ran up from behind and asked with concern.

Zhao Zheng tied up the man who was still wailing with the prepared rope, and then threw the other end of the rope to Xiao Luzi, "Send it to the yamen." ”

Shen Yuexi looked at all this in a daze and did not react.

"Yuexi." Zhao Zheng stepped forward and called Shen Yuexi's name.

Shen Yuexi looked at Zhao Zheng, "You use me as bait to catch the people who killed me?" ”

Zhao Zheng didn't speak, acquiescing.

"If something happens, I'll be killed, right?" Shen Yuexi stared at Zhao Zheng and continued to ask.

"There will be no surprises." Zhao Zheng said.

"What if?"

"There won't be a case."

Shen Yue turned around angrily and left, she didn't expect Zhao Zheng to put her in danger in order to catch the murderer. That is, the person who just assassinated her was not skilled, and if she was a master, she would have died.

Zhao Zheng followed up and explained: "I have taken precautions and know that you will not have an accident." ”

Shen Yuexi ignored Zhao Zheng and walked faster and faster.

Zhao He seemed to understand something from their conversation, but it was difficult to intervene, so he could only follow them silently.

"Yuexi." Zhao Zheng shouted again, he hoped she would calm down.

But Shen Yuexi didn't listen, she felt scared, she thought that Zhao Zheng was a person worthy of her trust, but she was wrong, Zhao Zheng could even use her in order to achieve her goal.

"Listen to me, I'm 100 percent sure." Zhao Zheng stretched out his hand and simply trapped Shen Yuexi in front of him.

"No matter how sure I am, I may still die." When Shen Yuexi said this, her eyes instantly turned red.

"If you die, I'll bury you." Zhao Zheng looked at Shen Yuexi's eyes and said solemnly.

Shen Yuexi stared at Zhao Zheng deadly, "But I don't want to die." ”

She wants to live, she wants to avenge the Shen family, she wants to make the world chaotic, and she wants to make everyone who once made the Shen family unhappy to pay.

"You won't die, I'll protect you with my life." Zhao Zheng said in a low voice again.

Zhao He walked up, looking at Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi's unusual faces, she had a hunch that Shen Yuexi didn't seem to be a simple woman.

"Let's talk about it when I go back to the palace, don't let irrelevant people see the excitement of people coming and going on the street." Zhao He looked left and right and said softly.

What Zhao He said made sense, Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi both knew, so there was no way to go to the market, so Shen Yuexi turned around and walked towards the palace.

The group returned to the palace with serious faces.

Shen Yuexi returned to Qianfuyuan, and Zhao Zheng followed and dismissed all his subordinates.

Zhao He had nothing to do, sitting in the lake pavilion in the palace, squinting thoughtfully at the boundless blue of the sky in the distance.

In the Thousand Blessing Courtyard, Zhao is trying to clear up the misunderstanding between him and Shen Yuexi.

"I tested Yiru last night, ninety percent of the things in Yunyou Temple were instructed by her to do it, I wanted to tell you about it this morning, but Zhao He came, I didn't have a chance to say, I should tell you my plan, so that you can rest assured." Zhao Zheng said.

"So you're not sure if the Seventh Princess did it right, right? Even if the Seventh Princess did it, I'm still in danger, right? Shen Yuexi asked.

"If you don't get rid of those people, you will be in danger even if you stay in the palace and don't go anywhere."

Shen Yuexi looked at Zhao Zheng's serious explanation and stopped talking.

"Are you still angry?" Seeing that Shen Yuexi didn't speak, Zhao Zheng asked.

He would rather Shen Yuexi mess with him, at least he would know what Shen Yuexi was thinking, and she made him very uneasy when she was silent.

"Seventh Master, you're right, if you don't get rid of those people, I'll be dangerous wherever I am." Shen Yuexi shook her head, an unpredictable smile on her face.

She didn't look like she was fine, but Zhao Zheng didn't have time to explain more, the person who was sent to the yamen, he had to interrogate and find out who the person behind the command was.

Even if ninety percent of it was done by An Yiru, then one percent was done by someone else, and he had to interrogate it clearly.

"When I come back from the yamen, we will talk about it, you don't want to think nonsense alone." Zhao Zheng left this sentence and left the Thousand Blessing Temple.

Shen Yuexi was still sitting in the room, she thought about it a lot, she thought that she was not qualified to lose her temper with Zhao Zheng, no matter what he did, the starting point was for her good, and she had been relying on him and using him, if she was held accountable, she would be the shameless person.

Shen Yuexi sighed, got up and walked out of the house, and slowly walked towards the Huxin Pavilion.

From a distance, I saw that in the pavilion in the center of the lake, Zhao He half raised his head, staring at the sky in a daze.

Hearing the movement, Zhao He turned his head to look over.

"It's a pity that I couldn't have a good time today, and when this matter is resolved, I will accompany you to visit the capital again." Shen Yuexi said to Zhao He.

"Can you tell me what happened?" Zhao He asked.
