Seventy-three. Mysterious Woman
Just fiddling with the jade that had been sent, the two of them muttered something for a while. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 It wasn't until the end that the two diverged from the topic, and Xiao Yifei deliberately asked, "It's only April now, why are you already so busy?" It stands to reason that in winter, there is a need for more jade? Spring has passed, and there is no draft this year, why do you look busier than at the end of the year? ”
"We are just craftsmen, and we do everything else according to the instructions of the above. Although I don't know exactly what the reason is, judging by the style and texture of these jade objects, it should be a reward for foreign envoys, right? Generally, ordinary people don't need such patterns. Others may have been given to princes and ministers. A faint smile appeared on the man's lips and said, "It's me who is talking too much, and this is something that adults need to worry about." ”
"Even if you don't say it, is there anything I want to know that I can't inquire?" Xiao Yifei nodded.
He followed Xiao Yifei for a day, and it was not until dusk that he returned to his residence again. This made Gu Meier a little puzzled, it seemed that Xiao Yifei seemed to have seen many people and done a lot of things, but why did he feel that he had learned nothing, the only thing that was certain was that Xiao Yifei knew a lot of people.
"You won't be ...... Would you like to introduce me to your friends? Gu Mei'er blinked a few times and said, "I'm the female catcher of the six doors, not a delicate lady, you don't want to introduce me to all the people around you, right?" Isn't it the rhythm of the intention to confess to me? ”
"Are you thinking too much?" Xiao Yifei grimaced at her, "I know, in your heart, I'm afraid that in addition to that black-faced Brother Yuan, there will be no room for a second person, how can I ask for hardship?" ”
After the two of them sarcastically exchanged a few words, Xiao Yifei thoughtfully explained that what happened in Xishan had probably already spread throughout the capital, and those people hiding in the shadows naturally couldn't hold back and were ready to take further action. And all of his presence in various places without hesitation is a signal to those people that their actions have begun!
"Are you stupid? Isn't that a scareless snake? Aren't you afraid that they will be on guard? Or did you find some clue a long time ago? Gu Mei'er's eyes widened in surprise.
Xiao Yifei did not answer, but walked up to the pavilion at the highest point in the courtyard, smiled at her, and said, "Look at it, the people who have been secretly observing us are already in a hurry to go back and report the news to his master." If they don't move, how can we take the next step? ”
The most lively Fan Lou in the capital, here is the most famous restaurant, every dish is almost the most famous delicacy in the capital, although the lights are on, but here has already been lively, laughter, the sound of silk and bamboo, mixed with the sound of the guys singing the name of the dish loudly. The people who come and go here are all celebrities in the capital, and the shopkeeper sitting behind the counter has obviously been accustomed to such a noisy life, and he glances at the guests in the lobby from time to time to guard against possible scoundrels who "eat white food".
Just then, a woman walked in with her waist twisted. From the moment she appeared at the gate, almost everyone's eyes were focused on her: the most eye-catching thing was the fragrance emanating from her body, which was the only spice transported from the Western Regions that could emit such a mysterious and strange fragrance; The second is her somewhat over-groomed headdress, I don't know if she used her head as a display table, all the pearls are piled up on her head, and if you only look at the front, you can barely see her hair. The clothes on the upper body are obviously purple, but there is a red skirt tied underneath. It's hard to look like this without attracting attention, and everyone's eyes were stunned for a moment when she appeared, and then they began to whisper again.
Looking at the jewelry on her head, it must be worth a lot of money, could it be that she didn't look in the mirror when she was dressing up? Or do you just like to be so swaggering? I'm afraid that if you go to the street in broad daylight, you will make people laugh off your big teeth. This made the shopkeeper a little displeased, the female guests who entered and exited the Fan Building were counted, and there were even fewer female guests dressed like this, and the discussions and curious eyes of other guests might scare the female guest away. In any case, it was the guests who came to the door, and he didn't want to cause anything untroubled, so out of professional politeness, he put away the smile on his face and politely asked her if she was looking for someone or would she want to eat here?
When the woman called out the name of the private room, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, but he took her upstairs himself. The shopkeeper was quite surprised, because the private room was contracted out all year round, and it was also one of the frequent visitors of Fan Lou, and every month they could receive a large deposit, but no one had ever seen who the private room was, and every time that person planned to appear here, there must be a well-dressed attendant who would send the predetermined menu to the shopkeeper, and after the food and wine were delivered, someone would guard the door and never allow anyone to approach. And now that this woman was going to the private room, the shopkeeper was naturally quite surprised, but he didn't ask, just respectfully sent her to the second floor to the private room.
"Don't you wonder who I am?" The woman spoke, her eyes falling on the shopkeeper, but quickly turned to the side.
The shopkeeper was stunned again, her voice sounded strange, obviously she was speaking normally, but it seemed to be pinching her nose, which made him inexplicably have a layer of cold sweat on his back, and he quickly shook his head and said, "How come?" The people who come here are all distinguished guests, and I am most concerned about you being able to satisfy you here. ”
"Well, he's a shrewd businessman." The woman was very satisfied with the shopkeeper's reaction, and she didn't know where she found something, threw it at the shopkeeper, and said, "Is this a reward for you, or is it the same as usual, there are no orders, don't let people come up and disturb you." ”
Ten taels of white silver is just in hand? The shopkeeper's eyes lit up and took the silver in his hand, and he said again and again, "Thank you Miss for the reward!" We know the rules, you please, you please, please ......"
"I want to ask you one more thing. Xiao Yifei and Xiao Gongzi are also frequent visitors here, right? Has he been here today? The woman asked one more question before going upstairs.
"Xiao Gongzi has returned to Beijing?" The shopkeeper asked curiously, "I've been busy chattering all day, I haven't taken care of such a thing, I haven't seen Xiao Gongzi for a long time." ”
