The food outside the customs is not as rich as the inside of the customs, but Xu Kun obviously gave enough sincerity, a table full of meat and vegetables, suitable meat and vegetables, and specially brought the wine sold to the gambling house by merchants from the Western Regions in Liangtan Town, and there was a fragrant fragrance when the lid was opened.
Yan Tang was already drinking a lot, and he had been instructed by Qi Miao, so after drinking half a glass, he reached out to cover the mouth of the cup, raised his lips and shook his head.
Everyone is a subordinate, where do you dare to persuade? Fortunately, with Cheng Huaizhi, they lifted the cup first without being informal, and the generals were relaxed again.
Qi Yiyi told Yan Tang to pay attention, because there was a suspicion that someone was secretly murdering him in a place where he couldn't see, so it was better to be careful in everything.
Usually in the handsome tent, they have their own Lirong Hills and they check for him, but when they get here, it's hard to say.
Of course, she is not targeting Mrs. Xu, because even if Mrs. Xu is proficient in medicine, it cannot be ruled out that there is a possibility of poisoning, but in the end, she will not be stupid enough to do it on her own territory.
As for why she came to join in the fun, it was probably because she had some contact with Xu Kun in the Tongshan camp before, or it was for Mrs. Xu.
There are a room of women, only Xing Xiaowei is an eldest lady, but there is nothing uncomfortable, these people also meet with the female relatives of Taikang Fang on weekdays.
Qi Yuyi drank soup and medicine in the evening, and then asked Mrs. Xu about the place of the clean room.
Mrs. Xu thought about it, led her to her room, and said, "The princess doesn't dislike it, just go to my house." It's really useless to you anywhere else.
Qi Yiyi knew that it was the truth, but it was rare that she didn't mind bringing herself into the room, thanked her, and entered the door.
After tidying up, she glanced at the room.
There was a faint smell of incense in the room, and the room was clean and tidy, and the bed was well organized, and everywhere showed that this was really a woman who could live.
She turned her head to look at the door that had been shut, and simply looked at the room.
Mrs. Xu, this woman is really like a mystery, even if she is suspected of peeping into other people's privacy now, she doesn't care so much.
The lamp was placed on the table, and she looked around carefully.
The quilt cover and brocade mattress on the bed should be the same as hers, and it was also brought from Jingshi, because the material is not bad.
Especially the unfinished rose-colored Shu brocade pillowcase resting in the bedside sewing basket -
Hey?
Rose-colored brocade ......
A string was plucked in her head.
Walking lightly, she picked up the satin and looked at it carefully.
At first glance, she felt very familiar, and the material of an unopened seal she saw at Guan Wuniang a few days ago was exactly the same as this!
But how could Guan Wuniang's satin be here with her?
"Click!"
There was a sudden noise outside the side window, and she quickly put the pillowcase back in its place and retreated behind the curtain of the bed.
β¦β¦ After Mrs. Xu closed the door, she walked down to the porch and waited for Qi Yimi.
It's getting dark. It is dark late in spring and summer in the north, and it should be the end of the day at this time.
Tonight, because of the banquet in the front yard, the backyard seemed very quiet, and even the servants went to the front to serve, and the situation was a little desolate for no reason.
She looked at the sky and sat down on a pestle under the door.
Her eyes were looking directly at Xu Kun, who had the loudest voice, in the direction of their room.
"Who?!"
Suddenly there was an exclamation from the room!
She was startled, and then got up and pushed the door: "Is the princess okay?!" β
The lampstand that was originally led by Qi Mi to the inner room is now placed on the outer case, and Qi Mi Mi's clothes are intact under the curtains, looking at a person who is kneeling in panic with his bleeding left shoulder!
Mrs. Xu looked stunned: "He Zhong?!" What are you doing here! β
The injured man's facial muscles trembled, and he knelt down on the ground: "The little one is not to disturb the princess, the princess forgives her sins!" Madame forgiveness! β
Qi Yiyi's eyes were slightly cold, and he turned his head to look at Mrs. Xu: "Your servant?!" β
Mrs. Xu pursed her lips tightly, held her breath for a while, and then leaned over evenly: "This is my grandson's servant." I don't know why this beast has disturbed the princess here, so I'll let my grandson come over and give the princess an explanation! β
"No need!"
Qi Yiyi stared at He Zhong for a while, then walked up and pulled out the tassel that grabbed the small flying arrow on his shoulder socket, looked at the depth and then looked at him: "I just happened to be about to come out when I bumped into him through the window." β
Then she turned around, looked at Mrs. Xu deeply, and then put the two golden hairpins in her hand on the case in front of her: "I wasn't shocked, but Mrs. is not strict enough to control the door." β
After saying that, she picked up the candlestick and left on her own.
The room suddenly became dark, except for a small glimmer of light from the lantern outside the half-open window.
The two intricate golden hairpins on the table are also dazzling.
Mrs. Xu stood in place for a long time, and it was not until someone brought the lamp in again that she sighed slightly and sat down.
Looking at He Zhong, who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to move, she said in a deep voice: "How dare you steal the master's jewelry? What exactly do you want to do? β
He Zhong slammed his head on the floor, and his voice was like a mosquito: "Madame, forgive your sins!" Small, small disadvantages money ......"
"Didn't I send you a monthly payment? Or is the general harsh on you for something? The salary of six taels of silver a month, I thought it was not bad. β
"It's none of the general's business and his wife! The general and his wife treat the little ones like a mountain, and they are guilty of the little ones!
"The younger son is seriously ill and needs to spend a lot of money to buy medicine, and the younger one is short of money and doesn't know what to do, so he ......"
Mrs. Xu looked at him fixedly, her expression and gaze were cold.
After a while, she frowned and turned her head, turning sideways.
Her eyes inadvertently touched the Shu brocade pillowcase placed next to the sewing basket, her body paused slightly, and she suddenly got up again and took the pillowcase in her hand......
"Have you touched my needle?"
"No...... The small, the small one has only touched the lady's makeup. β
Mrs. Xu looked up at the window, her eyes flashed slightly, and her lips pursed deeply.
β¦β¦
Qi Yiyi returned to the table, and Xing Xiaowei asked her, "Why have you been there for so long?" β
Now is not the time to talk about this, she replied vaguely, "I went to do something", and then greeted the ladies at the next table.
Not long after, Mrs. Xu came back, and Qi Yiyi saw that her expression was as usual, and she didn't make any noise.
A meal was eaten until the middle of the moon, and after the banquet was dispersed, everyone began to say goodbye and return to the room.
Yan Tang heard that the female dependents had dispersed, so she immediately greeted Xu Kun and Cheng Huaizhi and went out.
Xing Xiaowei quickly forgot what happened before, didn't say anything all the way, and parted ways halfway through.
After entering the door, Yan Tang hugged Qi Yiyi to the bed, although he only drank half a glass, but the wine was enough.
But today Qi Mi is inconvenient, and he can only talk to her.
