Wang Bi's eyes turned around from Lan'e's little face, and then looked at Cui Shi and said: "Mother, I heard that the rare things from all over the world are in the West Market, so it is better for my mother to take Thirteen to take a look there." ”

Since returning to Chang'an, Lan'e first "fainted" and couldn't go out. The old lady was sick again, and the Cui family was too busy to go out. At this time, when he was free, Cui wanted to take Lan'e out for a walk.

Since it is "scattered", it is the same everywhere.

Cui Shi said: "In this way, let's go to the West Market tomorrow." ”

A few people gossiped at this time, and Chun Niang came to report: "My lord, madam, the meal has been arranged." Wang Ke glanced at the mother and daughter: "And I used the meal." He got up and sat down at the desk.

On the first two seats, Wang Ke and Cui's sat at the first table, and Wang Bi and Lan E followed to sit in the north head.

Four people eat at separate tables.

Lan E saw a small bowl of rice on her table, and a large plate of steamed pork, next to the steamed meat was a small dish of pickled reeds, and next to it was a small bowl of fish soup, next to another small urn of raise.

In her previous life, Mrs. Xue didn't like to eat meat and fish, and she thought these things were fishy, so Lan'e rarely touched these.

Eat without saying anything.

A few people used the meal silently, and Chun Niang led the maid to carry the basin, and the maid held the handkerchief. After a few people cleaned their hands again, Wang Ke said to Wang Bi: "Follow me to the study." He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked out.

Wang Bi knew that his father was going to talk about current affairs, so he got up and saluted Cui's family: "My son will leave." ”

Earlier, when they were in Jinyang, the father and son often stayed in the study to discuss the history and talk about current affairs, and they talked for an hour or two, and Cui's had long been surprised by this.

At this time, Cui's stretched out his hand and pulled Lan E, and said to him: "Go, I have thirteen is enough." ”

Is it enough to have this bastard?

I remembered the ...... in the East Market a few days ago. Wang Bi glanced at Lan'e with great "disgust", and strolled out with his father.

The father and son were gone, and Cui Shi pulled Lan E to sit on the couch: "Thirteen has learned the rules in the past few days?" ”

This mother knows!

Forcing yourself to learn the rules is either the eldest brother or Mama Li!

Lan E pouted, and arched into Cui's arms aggrievedly: "Mother, there are three booklets, a total of seven hundred and twenty-three, and Mama wants to be thirteen backwards." ”

Her voice was pitiful.

Cui's heart instantly turned into a puddle of water, and he was about to open his mouth, but then he remembered what Wang Ke said last night, "There is a little lady chasing ...... on the street." Thirteen more detentions", thinking of this, Cui Shi ruthlessly pulled Lan E out of his arms, helped her shoulders and said, "Mama is always good for you." ”

Good for me, huh! Then use ......

Lan'e pursed her little mouth, reached out to take out the handkerchief, only stretched out half a section and remembered that she forgot to take it, so she wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.

Cui Shi has never seen her suffer the slightest grievance. At this time, seeing that she was about to cry or not, she lowered her eyes and thought about it, so he patted her again and said, "The booklet is indeed a little thicker, seven hundred and twenty-three...... Mama only said that she had to memorize it backwards, and she didn't decide to use it for a few days, so you can memorize one a day. ”

One a day, seven hundred and twenty-three...... It takes two years to memorize it. Ouch! Is that okay too?

Lan E's heart blossomed, but her eyes were full of admiration, and she nodded her little head vigorously: "Well, thirteen will carry one a day." ”

Seeing that she was instantly happy again, Cui Shi nodded her forehead in disgust: "Just you ghost!" ”

Lan E smiled and arched into Cui's arms: "It's still my mother's distress for the thirteenth ......." ”

The mother and daughter muttered for a while, and the room gradually darkened, and Qiu Niang led the maids to light the lanterns outside the corridor, and then came to the hall to light the octagonal silver lantern.

Cui Shi let go of Lan E, covered his mouth and yawned.

Lan E saw that she was tired, so she got up and said, "Mother, let's rest early." Thirteen retirements. ”

Cui Shi called Qiu Niang again to pick a lantern to send her.

Lan'e slept very heavily this night.

After lunch the next day, Cui's took Lan'e, Zhou's mother, and Li Ma out of the house.

Ping'an Fang is in the south city, the driver drove out of Ping'an Fang and turned west, and walked five or six miles along the long street to the West Market.

Chang'an is close to the Wei River, and the water and land transportation is very convenient, and the city gathers merchants from all over the world. ivory, jadeite, and gold from Nanyi; silk, lacquerware, and ironware from the hinterland of the Central Plains; There are also merchants who bring local products, woolen fabrics, horses, musical instruments, etc. from the Western Regions to sell here.

Because the wagons and oxcarts loading and unloading in the workshop were crowded together, and the carriage was not easy to turn around, Cui ordered the driver to stop at the entrance of the fang.

When everyone got out of the carriage, and Zhou Mama, Li Mama, and Mo and a few people surrounded them again, Cui Shi held Lan E's little hand, pointed to a shop on both sides of the street, and said: "There is a shop here that specializes in jade and jade ornaments, and Thirteen will go and have a look." ”

Before entering the palace, Lan E would also come to visit the West Market, and seeing that Cui's was full of interest at this time, Lan E opened her little hand and bent her fingers down: "Well, pick some good ones." The belt should be buckled with a pipa, the head should be used with a hairpin, and the skirt should be pressed with a jade ring, which is also ......beautiful. ”

She made a big report, and Cui's listened to her and said angrily: "The money brought by my mother is not much...... only disgusted, and slowly took Lan'e into the shop.

The door of the shop is the large counter.

On the left hand of the counter, there is another row of couch tables.

The servants and slaves saw the Cui family's luxurious clothes, and the four people behind them, Zhou Mama, Li Mama, A Mo Qiu Niang, entered the door and scored two points, two stood by the door, and the other two followed the Cui mother and daughter behind them, and knew that the person who came must be the wife of the family.

The servant greeted him with a smile on his face: "What does Madame want to see, the jade pearl in this store from the hairpin to the sandal...... The whole nine yards. ”

Cui Shi pressed the corner of his lips with a handkerchief, and then said, "Take these and take a look." ”

Take them all...... When the servant heard this, his eyes immediately squeezed into two slits, and he said attentively: "Madame will sit first, and the small one will take the top grade." ”

The servant let the two of them sit on the couch, and ordered the other two gray-shirted servants to serve tea, while he himself turned around and brought a one-foot-square carved box from under the counter.

When the box was opened, Cui saw three palm-sized jade rings on the purple flannel, and the ring was carved with lying cloud patterns, water waves and waves, and the six jade cards below, and the top was also carved with a curly grass pattern.

She looked at the object, and Lan E lifted her chin to look at her.

When she looked at it, there was a sudden burst of people on the street shouting and neighing, and two more women avoided the shop in a panic...... "Ouch, Zhu Xuhou is testing horses on the street again?" ”

"yes......"

Zhu Xuhou? Didn't this person live in the palace with Princess Lu Yuan?

Lan E frowned, and turned her eyes to look out the door.

The servants and slaves here hurriedly asked the two women, "Did the waiter buy a horse again?" ”

The fat woman on the left seemed to come to this shop often, so she turned around and answered: "It is said that the Queen Mother is holding a banquet tonight, and the Lord is going to pick a good horse to present to the Queen Mother." ”

Good Horse ...... Banquet...... Lan E thought for a moment, got up and walked to the door.

At this time, the sound of hooves was like rain, and it was there in a few moments.

Lan E only saw that the man's thick eyebrows flew up diagonally, and the two eyes under the eyebrows were like cold stars, showing an unruly look when looking at people.

Liu Zhang! Sure enough, it's Zhu Xuhou Liu Zhang!

He's going to a feast tonight, too!

Lan E's heart sank.

Just now she stood up and ran to the door, Mama Li frowned, and then flashed to stand beside her.

At this time, Mama Li looked out of the door suspiciously, groaned slightly, and leaned over slightly and asked, "What's wrong with the lady?" ”

What's wrong? Big inappropriate!

Lan'e bit her lip, and her heart was numb for a while.

In her previous life, when she was in the Moyang Palace, she would flip through the book when she had nothing to do, and somehow turned to the secret book of the clan to record the Lu family.

It was recorded in the secret book: Lu Hou held a banquet at the beginning of the autumn, and Zhu Xuhou shot Lu Lu at the banquet...... In a fit of rage, Empress Lu ordered Jin Wuwei to close the temple gate...... The bloody gas dissipated in half a moon.
