Chapter 148: Meng Guan's doubts
Yan Zhuo showed a surprised and innocent expression just right, "It's my real name, Grandpa took it." ”
Meng Guan still didn't believe it, "Why do you take these two words?" ”
Yan Zhuo is more innocent, "Grandpa didn't say it." ”
Meng Guan simply put down the teacup, stood up, and paced to her, "Where are you from?" ”
"Silver State." Yan Zhuo replied to him, at that time she said that she was from Yinzhou, but Tuyinzhou and Haicheng were close to her, so she said in passing.
I didn't expect to meet Meng Guan so soon, and he remembered himself.
It's just that now that Yinzhou is under the influence of the rebels, even if Meng Guan wants to check her identity, it is not so convenient.
Her gaze calmly fell on Meng Guan's face, and when she got closer, she could clearly see the cyan blood vessels under the skin on his face, as well as the faint fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and the cheeks that were slightly bulging because of nervousness and clenching his teeth.
This face, she used to be extremely close, the distant mountains slanted eyebrows, the peach blossom eyes slightly upturned eyes, she stroked with her fingertips, but now in her eyes, she only felt disgusted.
Meng Guan paced around Yan Zhuo, and his heart gradually calmed down.
Maybe it's just a name, there are people in this world who bump faces, let alone the same name.
He asked again, "What are you doing in Jinling?" ”
Yan Zhuo replied to him: "I also want to learn from the Jade Lady to open a shop to do business, so I came to Baofeng Shop as an apprentice." ”
I can't tell whether this is true or false, there are many apprentices in the name of Mu Yuniang over the years, and most of them are women.
Sure enough, Meng Guan didn't ask anymore.
However, there are still doubts in his heart, and the person in front of him always makes him feel that there is a secret.
He thought for a while and asked, "What did you do yesterday at that Miao Erniang noodle restaurant?" ”
Yan Zhuo was surprised: "Eat noodles!" ”
Meng Guan stared at her eyes, "Then why did the proprietress give you a jar of osmanthus wine?" ”
Yan Zhuo blinked and replied: "I don't know why, the proprietress asked me what my name was, and said that she was destined for me, and asked me if I knew the jade lady, and then gave me a jar of wine." ”
Her eyes were large and watery, her cheeks were slightly rounded, and she looked extremely innocent.
Meng Guan thought about it, the proprietress saw that she was also called Yan Zhuo, and she was quite fateful, so she sent her?
Maybe.
He couldn't ask anything more, and he still felt that something was wrong.
It's not hard for her to tell the truth......
Meng Guan's shoulders relaxed, and he returned to his usual appearance of a gentleman, looking at her with a smile: "Do you know who I am?" ”
Yan Zhuo nodded, "I know you're the owner. ”
Meng Guan smiled, "That's right." Qi Niang is it? In the evening, there is a banquet in the palace, you pick six blessing jade plaques suitable for military use, two of them are of the highest grade, and four of them are of the highest grade, and they are sent to the palace, saying that Meng Shaoqing asked you to come. ”
After speaking, he raised his chin, "Let's go get busy first." ”
Yan Zhuo went out inexplicably, what did she do when she sent the jade card to the palace?
When she arrived at the porch, Meng Guan called the shopkeeper Luo in.
Yan Zhuo deliberately slowed down his pace, and when he heard Meng Guan's voice behind him, he asked, "What's the matter?" How could the people of Haicheng Baofengpu mix with the rebels? ”
A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, even if Meng Guan wanted to break his head, he couldn't figure this out.
Yan Zhuo continued to inventory with Mr. Tian, and found an opportunity to ask: "The owner asked me to find six jade plates to send to the palace, can we enter the palace casually?" ”
Mr. Tian smiled disapprovingly: "What kind of store are we?" Naturally! ”
"You've been in the palace too?" Yan Zhuo pretended to be curious.
Mr. Tian rubbed the jade piece and smiled, "What am I going to do as an old man, the owner likes to find a neat and smart offspring, this time I must have taken a fancy to you, right?" ”
The word "fancie" is trembling, but it seems that Meng Guan has done so.
Hehe, using the things she has in Baofeng to do favors is really smart!
Meng Guan obviously explained this matter to Shopkeeper Luo, and when it was time to unite, Yan Zhuo had already picked out the jade plate, and Shopkeeper Luo personally sent her a carriage and coachman, and instructed her to send things out.
The carriage was stopped outside the gate of the North Palace, and Yan Zhuo said that Baofeng had sent the jade plate, and the guards let it go without saying a word.
Not far from the door, there was a little father-in-law waiting, beckoning Yan Zhuo to go in with him.
The carriage turned to the west, and passed through several gates, and I didn't know how to turn in front of the palace, and there was a chrysanthemum garden outside, and all kinds of chrysanthemums were in various shapes, and they were blooming brightly.
The carriage stopped at the front of the stairs, and Yan Zhuo got out of the car.
The little father-in-law came over and said with a smile: "Little lady, please come with us, Lord Shaoqing is waiting in the palace." ”
Yan Zhuo walked inside with the brocade box, and then twisted and wounded through several halls before he came to a gorgeous treasure cover hall.
There was the sound of silk and bamboo music and bursts of laughter, and it looked like it was dinner again.
The little father-in-law came to the door and stretched out his arms, "Little lady, please." ”
Yan Zhuo was a little surprised, "Am I just going in?" ”
The little father-in-law nodded, "Lord Shaoqing has instructed you to come and go in directly." ”
Yan Zhuo walked into the door, there was a soft bead curtain hanging in front of the hall, two palace maids opened the bead curtain, and a red felt carpet spread the ground and went straight inside.
Yan Zhuo entered the Jinling Palace for the first time, while looking around with his spare eyes, he was quite strange, there didn't seem to be many palace maids serving in this palace, and it was not a forest of sentry posts, but it was like a quiet garden.
The voice of the silk bamboo gradually approached, and there was an arch in front of it, which also hung a beaded curtain.
Yan Zhuo walked to him, and it was still two palace maids who opened the curtain and motioned her to go inside.
Behind the curtain is a hall, and in the middle of the wide passage, there are dancing girls twisting their soft waists and swinging, and the tables on both sides are full of people, all of whom are men.
Yan Zhuo was shocked for a moment, and his face was slightly hot, just because those who were sitting or standing next to Lang Jun were women, very close, and the women's clothes were as thin as gauze, and Lang Jun was up and down without any scruples, accompanied by bursts of Yin laughter and coaxing.
Yan Zhuo glanced at Meng Guan who was sitting in the middle, hurriedly lowered his head, ignored the beautiful voice and the woman's shy voice from around him, walked down a few steps, still walked along the red carpet to the end, hurriedly greeted the salute, and handed the brocade box to Meng Guan.
Meng Guan took the brocade box, his fingers brushed the back of her hand intentionally or unintentionally, and Yan Zhuo almost couldn't help but pull out his hand and slap it.
She retracted her hand, became vigilant in her heart, squeezed it tightly in her sleeve, hung her head and said: "The two jade plates on the upper layer are the upper grade, and the lower layer is the upper grade. ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Wait." Meng Guan called out to her affectionately.
Yan Zhuo had to turn around, "What else do you have to say?" ”
Meng Guan looked at her with a smile and asked, "What is the relationship between you and Yu Niang?" ”
Yan Zhuo was like being knocked on the head head-on, his face did not change, but his heart was instantly agitated.
What did Meng Guan see? Or are you cheating on her?
She promised that Meng Guan didn't know her, and she shouldn't have shown any clues, so why would he suddenly ask such a thing?
