Chapter 106: It's a Beauty
Seeing Xiao Ruyu's face flushed, her hair wet behind her, Shizi knew that she had just taken a shower, and she was a little uncomfortable touching her nose. But thinking that he had walked a bird in front of others, this discomfort was even more obvious.
"I'll dry your hair." He didn't say what he was doing, but he looked at her wet hair and said softly.
"Great." Xiao Ruyu didn't think about whether this would be too intimate, she happily opened the door and helped push the wheelchair into the room.
"Is that okay?" Xiao Ruyu half-squatted in front of the wheelchair and turned around and asked.
"Closer." Shizi said, his face was extremely serious, as if he was not facing a hair problem, but an important case.
Xiao Ruyu didn't think much about it, and leaned back again, "Is it okay now?" ”
"Well, so be it." Seeing the woman in front of him slowly bending down and squatting down, Shizi had a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, and his hands exerted force, approaching the black hair. Occasionally, a few mischievous strands of hair fluttered and touched his hand gently, and the touch made him throb.
A stream of heat surged in his head, feeling his hair slowly flying, Xiao Ruyu knew that his hair was drying. She suddenly realized now that there was a question about whether the two of them were too casual to look like this.
It seems that since the relationship between the two has begun to change since they were on the road with the prince of England, and now it has become a little ambiguous, Xiao Ruyu can't help but introspect, did I give the wrong signal to the prince, or did I misunderstand him by being amorous?
In any case, she couldn't go any further, she did admire his character, admired his handsomeness, and admired his perseverance, but these things were not likes, and she would not turn them into likes.
It seems that you really have to pay attention to the way you get along with him in the future, don't let him misunderstand, and don't give yourself a chance. He has a wife and a concubine, and has cut off all her reasons for tempting.
"Are you alright?" Xiao Ruyu didn't want to continue, so she pretended to be a little tired and got up slowly. I touched the hair behind me, and it did dry a lot, and most of it was able to drift away.
"Why don't you hold on for a while and do it right away." Shizi was a little surprised, he just felt that the atmosphere just now was good, and was about to ask her to hold on more, but he didn't expect her to get up.
"That's already good. Thank you, Shizi. Xiao Ruyu smiled with satisfaction, stroking her scattered hair with one hand, "Is there something wrong with the prince coming here so late?" ”
"There is indeed something, let me tell you about the situation of the medicinal herb dealer here in Lingnan." His eyes drooped slightly, and his hand on the wheelchair rubbed the handle of the wheelchair.
"Yes, you really should have looked into it, but thankfully you were careful." Xiao Ruyu pushed his chair to the table, and then found a chair to sit down.
Seeing the bouquet of bought flowers on the table, the corners of Shizi's mouth hooked slightly, "It seems that Siyu really likes these flowers." "Some of these flowers have been reorganized and reorganized into a new shape, and the whole bouquet is more vibrant and eye-catching because of this change.
"Just fiddle with it." Xiao Ruyu lowered her eyes and said. She hadn't finished it yet, and she wanted to wait until she finished taking a shower before slowly cleaning up, but she didn't expect Shizi to come. As he spoke, he picked up the remaining flowers and began to look at them one by one.
"There are three major medicinal herb merchants in Lingnan, one is the Wei Chi family in the eastern part of Lingnan, they have their own plantation called Baicao Valley, the area is very large, and there are many precious tonics in addition to ordinary medicinal materials, according to the clues we have found, they should be the main suppliers of Renhetang. The other is the Dongfang family in the middle of Lingnan, whose ancestors have been big medicinal herb merchants for many generations, and they also have their own plantations, which are larger than the Wei Chi family. They not only deal in common medicinal herbs, but also sell finished medicines, mainly pills. This pill is mainly for women's body, and there are very few treatments for diseases. ”
"What about the other one?" Xiao Ruyu saw that he had introduced the two families, and he stopped, put down the flowers in his hand and asked.
"There is another one you can guess, it is from our British Palace, but outsiders don't know. The owner's surname is Qian, his name is Qian Yiduo, his ancestors also grew and sold medicines, and he took refuge in my father after receiving the favor of my father. Their medicinal materials are all distributed to our medicinal herbs in various places. These three herb dealers all have their own channels for selling medicines, so it is difficult for you to buy a large number of herbs from them. ”
"Shizi, you promised to help me buy medicinal herbs. The other two can't do it for the time being, but you can always talk to the one surnamed Qian. Xiao Ruyu glanced at Shizi, this guy didn't want to regret it.
"Could it be that in Siyu's eyes, Qingjue has no integrity at all?" Shizi chuckled, Siyu was really too suspicious, and he didn't say that he wouldn't help, looking at what she meant, he didn't seem to believe that he would keep his promise. For some medicinal herbs, is he a dignified son?
"Huh." Xiao Ruyu smiled dryly, and said in her heart: It's hard to say, these people who use power have always had a lot of twists and turns in their intestines, and if they don't have more heart, maybe they will be sold one day.
Although there is no problem with the character of the son of the world now, who can guarantee that there will not be a situation in the future? So she still has to be more careful and take precautions.
I don't like Xiao Ruyu's perfunctory attitude, but the prince can't help it. This girl is not only proud, but also sensitive and thoughtful, and very guarded, these personalities are not much in ordinary interactions, but if you want to go further, it makes people a little uncomfortable.
Shizi sighed helplessly, "Siyu rest assured, your affairs must be taken to heart, when we arrive in Lingnan, we will investigate Wenbai's situation first, and then arrange your affairs." ”
"Thank you, Shizi." Xiao Ruyu thanked him politely, and then yawned delicately, the prince should go, he is so sleepy.
Shizi saw her yawning and shook his head slightly, "It's time to leave." ”
Xiao Ruyu helped push the wheelchair out, and after going out, Han Mo was already waiting outside the door, seeing Shizi come out, he hurriedly stepped forward to take the wheelchair.
"Good night, Shizi." Xiao Ruyu shouted in the back.
"Good night." Shizi turned around and whispered. After Xiao Ruyu finished speaking, she turned her head and entered the door, not seeing the affectionate gaze of the prince at all.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Ruyu was awakened by a slight noise, she quickly turned over and sat up, took out a dagger under the pillow, and got out of bed barefoot.
It was dark inside the house, and there was no moonlight outside, Xiao Ruyu opened his eyes wide, staring at the window, there was movement there.
There was a sound of Suosuo, the window paper was pierced, and a long bamboo pipe was sent in, Xiao Ruyu smelled a peculiar smell, it was a drug. She quickly took out a Qingshen Pill and stuffed it into her mouth, and quickly retreated to the bed and lay down. She wanted to see what these people wanted to do.
I don't know if there will be danger in Shizi, she has given Han Qian a few pills of Qingshen Pill, if Han Qian is alert enough, there should be no problem.
But now is not the time to care about them, she wants to see what the hell is going on, there are people doing it in Flower City, what is the purpose of these people? Could it be the same as the last assassination?
"Are you alright?" Someone outside asked softly.
"It should be fine, this is the top ** incense, and it is no problem to pour a cow with medicine." One person's smug answer, accompanied by a few light coughs,
"How's that house?" Another asked.
"It's been poured for a long time, don't worry." Someone answered.
Squeak, someone pushed the door in, and then the eyes slowly brightened, and someone lit a candle.
Bump, oops, someone knocked down the stool, maybe the leg hurts, where is only oops.
"Be quiet." Someone scolded him.
"What are you afraid of, if you get our ** incense, you won't wake up even if it thunders." Just now, the man sat down on a chair and rubbed his legs there.
"Wang Quan said that there is a beautiful girl among the people who came today, I want to see what kind of goods it is, and whether it can be sold at a good price." One of them held up the candlestick and walked to the bedside.
As the candlelight approached, Xiao Ruyu's beautiful face appeared in front of him. Although the beauty had her eyes closed, her skin was as white as jade, her nose was straight as jade, and her moist lips had a chuckle, which made his eyes straighten and he felt like his saliva was about to flow out.
"It's a big beauty." The man shouted in surprise, and reached out with his hand that had not taken the candlestick to touch the beauty's face.
The smile on the corner of the beauty in front of her was wider, her eyes slowly opened, and then she suddenly stuck out her tongue, and the man threw the candlestick in fright, shouting "Ghost." ”
There was darkness around, Xiao Ruyu took the opportunity to get up, holding a dagger like a lurking leopard in the dark, constantly looking for the target.
Because of the man's shouting just now, several other people were startled, and they raised their daggers one after another and looked around carefully. It was pitch black in the room, and nothing could be seen. Xiao Ruyu listened with bated breath for a while, several people were breathing roughly, it shouldn't be Lian Jiazi, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, she quickly made a move. Three times five divided by two, even knocking and kicking, the four people were lying on the ground in various postures.
