Chapter 53: The Storm Rises (2nd Watch)

Shen Qin also laughed, that scene was really funny, Shen Yu really lost a lot of face today, and even the banquet with Mrs. Chaohua was disturbed by her.

"Eighteen Niang, is there really no problem with your peacock hairpin? It's a pity that a good hairpin was removed. ”

Eighteen Niang shook her head, "Sister, that hairpin is flawed, and there is a black stone in it." Now you understand, why Shen Yu is smearing so much oil. ”

Shen Qin's eyes lit up, so it was.

On the surface, this black stone looks like an ordinary little stone, like black charcoal, but in fact it is old and sunny. There is that profiteer, when he was weighing it, he secretly put a black sinking stone, weighed it and took it out again, and slaughtered a large amount of money without knowing it.

"The peacock hairpin has a mechanism, and the belly is hollow, as long as you press the ruby eye hard, the belly will open, and the black stone will fall out. There were many people in the front, so I stepped on it, and Sister Qin followed in the background to pick up the black stone. ”

Eighteen Niang explained with a smile. Shen Yu is still young, and she looks good as long as she wears a pearl bell, but she wants to be in the limelight, and she can't wait to wear the best on her head.

This peacock hairpin was so heavy that it would break up her hair after a short time of inserting it, and it was about to fall off, so she had to apply oil to her hair and fix her hair tightly before wearing it.

What's more, Eighteen Niang was afraid that the head oil would not be enough, so she steamed this black stone with honey pollen, and it was so sweet that it was greasy, so she stuffed it in.

As for the servant woman who opened it and found that the peacock's belly was hollow? That's not afraid at all, because many big hairpins are originally hollow or hollow, otherwise they won't twist their necks if they wear them for a day.

Shen Qin saw that Eighteen Niang didn't show any horses' feet, so she was relieved, poked her forehead and said: "You are too bold, although you are relieved, but if the fire burns on your own head, it will not be good." ”

Eighteen Niang smiled, if something really happened, she naturally had a way to deal with it.

As the carriage passed South Street, the smell of roasted sweet potatoes wafted from the window. Eighteen Niang said to Xiping, "You go buy some roasted sweet potatoes for me, and then see if there is any fresh lotus root, I want to eat it." ”

Xiping nodded and got out of the carriage.

Shen Qin smiled: "You delicious ghost, you narrow ghost." ”

The water that rushed to Shen Qin today is the muddy water in the lotus pond, what is it bad for Eighteen Niang to eat, she prefers to eat lotus root, which is simply mocking Shen Qin.

Eighteen Niang didn't speak, Xiping got off the carriage, but she was going to do a big thing!

Sure enough, Na Xiping got out of the carriage, didn't buy roasted sweet potatoes or lotus roots, turned around and went to a small alley, and entered a secret door. After a while, out of it came a little beggar with a disheveled head, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, dressed in tatters, thrown in the pile of beggars, so that people could not recognize him.

I saw her walk up to a bunch of little beggars and smile, "Guess what good things I got today!" ”

The little beggars were catching lice there, bored, and one of them asked, "Steamed buns?" ”

Xiping shook his head and said mysteriously: "A whole roast chicken!" ”

As she spoke, she wiped her oily mouth, seeing that everyone didn't believe it, she was anxious, scooped out a paw from her pocket and said, "See, see, I didn't lie to you." Today, the king of Chaohua is feasting, but let me go lucky. ”

The little beggar shook his head, "Blow you, no matter how good King Chaohua is, isn't it also a dog's eye to look down on people, and he can still give you chickens to eat." You don't see something you shouldn't see. ”

"Speaking of side. I saw an old monk who went to the palace of the king of Chaohua......" she stopped talking, and the beggar on the side became interested: "What's the matter, the king of Chaohua is not taboo in meat and vegetables, and even the master has accepted it?" ”

"Phew! It was a high-ranking monk who told the fortune of Princess Rongyang. King Chaohua came to greet him in person, but the old monk didn't enter the door, just glanced at it, turned around and left. King Chaohua asked, "What is my son's life?" The senior monk said that the monks did not speak, and the poor monks did not dare to speak. ”

"Don't sell it, say it quickly!" The little beggars were in a hurry.

Xiping lowered his voice and said: "King Chaohua insisted that he say that the old monk can't resist it, so he said, it's unspeakably expensive, the heroine of the Wu family is the world!" I didn't see the expression of King Chaohua. When the old monk left, I was just about to leave, what do you say, the small side door opened, and a mother-in-law said that the main family was happy, so she stuffed me with a roast chicken. ”

The little beggar suddenly realized: "It turns out that Princess Rongyang's surname is Wu!" Then her father is not the emperor, he is surnamed Wu! ”

A group of beggars seemed to know some big secret, and they all talked about it.

One of the older ones came back to his senses and asked curiously: "What is the heroine of the Wu family, does it mean that the princess of Rongyang wants to be the queen?" ”

Xiping shook his head, "I haven't read a book, where do I know that these dogs don't understand, just this sentence, I still learned from the old monk." Don't talk about it, eat and drink enough to sleep. ”

After speaking, she stood up, turned around, and circled around Chang'an City, feeling that no one was following, so she returned to the dark alley and changed her clothes. A refreshing girl went out again, first went to buy roasted sweet potatoes, and then went to her father's house, and dragged a big cart of lotus root, all of which were dragged from the eighteenth Niang Zhuangzi, and waited early in the morning.

Wait for Xiping to return home.

The little beggars in the streets had already spread the word of this novelty, and someone had come to inquire where it had come from!

Little beggars, look at me, I look at you, and spit on the man, "Our buddies look like a mother, we haven't washed our faces for a few years, and the devil knows who it is." Anyway, it's true, you can't be wrong. ”

The man jumped back, snorted, and said sternly, "You'd better not lie, Black Feather Guard, watch your head." ”

Obviously there is no black feather, but it is also a black feather guard? The little beggar trembled with fright, pulled out his legs and ran away.

Zhang Wentian turned around and went back to the house, and came with a pen: The heart of the king of Chaohua is not subordinate, and it is obvious that it is revealed!

Eighteen Niang is in the plum courtyard, drinking sweet lotus root soup, this new lotus root is good, with a fragrance, eat in the mouth, and very soft and glutinous.

"Send some to all parties, and don't forget to send some more mud to my good sister Shen Yu. Sister eat more, lotus root replenishes qi and blood, the most suitable for you to eat. I'll ask the cook to make some lotus root boxes, and then make some sugar lotus, and you can eat and play when you're fine, by the way, the lotus root noodles are also good. ”

Shen Qin was happy in her heart and drank more.

Eighteen Niang took the spoon and gently stirred the soup in the bowl.

Li Ziqi knows that Wu Gui is Chaohua's own sister. So what about Zhao Yi, who fought the world with Chaohua, naturally he also knew.

If others don't know, can he still not know? The daughter of the Wu family, the lord of the world, is unspeakably expensive.

This Wu girl is not Princess Rongyang at all, but Chaohua.

Come to think of it, the story of the generation of empress Wu Zetian that Rong Yang said today has already reached Zhao Yi's ears, because she was worried that the courtiers would not care about Xiao Niang's game, she made Shen Yu make a big fuss.

Rong Yangzi is simple and ignorant of the world, where did he hear about Wu Zetian? Who is talking in her ear that a woman can be an emperor?

This incident will become a thorn in Zhao Yi's heart, so that he can't forget it day and night.
