"Ahhh

A long sigh, I don't know if it's helpless or speechless.

Zhou Xingzhi stood on the boundary of the entrance to the back gate of the Song Mansion, looking at the sky that was gradually revealing clouds, and sighed alone.

This is the third day she has been in the capital, that is, the twelfth day since she set out from Fallen Leaf Town.

It had been raining for the first two days yesterday, and the heavy rain had only stopped today, and although there were clouds spreading in the sky she looked up, in fact, it was not far from dark at this time.

The "Song Mansion" where she is now is naturally Song Lian's mansion.

Xiao Jiu came to inquire, Song Lian has been hiding in the mansion and has never gone out, since Ling Kongshan was imprisoned in the royal cell by the little emperor, he has never shown up.

During this time, he didn't even go to the early court, it was said that he had committed an old illness again, and a discerning person knew at a glance that he was pretending to be sick, and even an outsider like Zhou Xingzhi could see it clearly.

As for why the little emperor pretended to be deaf and dumb, she didn't know, the only thing she knew clearly now was that she had to find a way to meet Song Lian.

But she is not familiar with her life, so at this time she is standing on the boundary of the entrance to the back door of the Song Mansion, and her current identity is the food delivery maid temporarily called by the Song Mansion.

Dressed in a thick loess dress, in order not to be worn by those frames, the clothes were rougher than the ones she wore before, although the skin was not so easy to wear, but this clothes did not dissipate heat.

The pants on the lower body, the same material as the shirt, and the feet are wearing black cloth shoes with white backgrounds, and they are stepping on the hard road that is still wet.

Thanks to Xiao Jiu's many inquiries about her, she found such an opportunity, since she knew that Song Lian would definitely not leave the mansion, then she could only try her best to get close to the Song Mansion in order to see him.

Although this method is very old-fashioned and may not meet her expectations, but now she can only do this, it is better than sitting still.

I wanted to let Di Di go into the Song Mansion to investigate, but it hasn't woken up yet.

Yesterday's rain just gave her and Xiao Jiu the opportunity to get to know each other, and after they got along for a day, she basically figured out the general situation in the capital.

At the same time, she also set a number of "rules" for Xiao Jiu, and naturally what she said at that time was not entirely an excuse.

The first rule is that Xiao Jiu is not allowed to call himself "Childe" anymore, and after "bargaining" between the two, Zhou Xingzhi finally acquiesced to Xiao Jiu calling himself "Xingzhi Adult".

It's exactly like Didiu.

One is the "master of the line" and the other is the "master of the line".

At first, Zhou Xingzhi refused, after all, Xiao Jiu is a human being, which is completely different from Di Diu, but Xiao Jiu stubbornly explained.

The addition of "adult" to the end of the name is a term of respect and closeness to the other person.

Zhou Xingzhi didn't know much about this, but this title was always better than "childe", and it made her more accustomed to it, so she acquiesced.

Besides, she was originally a woman, so she was naturally not used to being called "Childe".

What's more, after Xiao Jiu became Zhou Xingzhi's personal servant, he finally admitted that in fact, the Beijing Inn charged ten taels more than other inns.

In addition, Zhou Xingzhiben was very disgusted with the proprietor, so after the rain stopped, he left with Xiao Jiu under the pretext that he had something urgent to do.

If it weren't for the fact that she was too tired to move that night and met Xiao Jiu again, she would definitely not have lived in such an annoying inn.

When she said that it was okay to charge an extra ten taels, Xiao Jiu showed a remorseful expression as always, blaming herself for not reminding Zhou Xingzhi at the beginning.

But Zhou Xingzhi said that he met such a good person as Xiao Jiu with only ten taels of silver, and he had already made a lot of money, which made Xiao Jiu feel a little comforted in his heart.

This also caused Xiao Jiu to feel more and more sorry for Zhou Xingzhi, so with his best efforts, Zhou Xingzhi entered the Song Mansion and became a temporary food delivery boy.

Xiao Jiu has been working hard, and this time he has worked hard, so Zhou Xingzhi is very grateful to him.

The two of them used the silver two who had stayed in the Beijing Inn before to find a room that was larger than before near the Song Mansion, which confirmed what Xiao Jiu said before.

At the same time, Zhou Xingzhi also knew yesterday that Xiao Jiu was so desperate because a child was sick, and he was saving money to treat him.

Before entering the Song Mansion to "work", she went to see that in the slum, a thin child was two years younger than Xiao Jiu, with a yellow face and thin muscles.

When Zhou Xingzhi seriously told Xiao Jiu that the child was just lacking nutrition and cold, Xiao Jiu was relieved.

After everything was settled, Xiao Jiu officially became Zhou Xingzhi's servant, and when Zhou Xingzhi was "working hard", he also went to the vicinity of the Imperial City to inquire about the news of Lingkong Mountain.

This matter can only be done by him, who is familiar with the route of the capital, if Zhou Xingzhi is allowed to go by himself, I am afraid that she will go around a few nearby streets.

Born with a weak sense of direction, she will get lost whenever she encounters the same or similar road sections, and she can recognize the general position of the east, and only rely on the rising sun.

"Hey--"

Zhou Xingzhi sighed again, she was very helpless in her heart, seeing that time was wasting bit by bit, and things were not progressing at all, her heart was even more anxious.

Because there were red fruit and green trees in them before, she didn't inquire more about where Ye Wusheng's property was, and now she regretted it a little.

At the same time, she also let Xiao Jiu stop by to investigate, but she also knew very well that there would be no big progress in this way.

Suddenly remembering Hongguo's extremely easy to blush face, she began to think about it again, and thought to herself: "According to the time calculation, the letter I gave will soon be delivered to Ye Wusheng." ”

Because she left in a hurry, she didn't know where Hongguo and Qingshu stayed in Simuyuan, and after leaving Simuyuan far away, she found a place where she could send letters, so she told Ye Wusheng about her affairs, and apologized for leaving without permission.

Of course, she didn't mention it to Ye Wusheng about her changing appearance, because she felt that she should not meet Ye Wusheng again, after all, it was impossible for her to really stay in Ye Yuanwaifu.

Although she is now busy rescuing Lingkong Mountain, she has never forgotten her most important purpose, which is to go to that world.

Now there is no progress in the news she has received from that world, but in order to be able to solve many doubts in her heart, she still has to find some information related to that world.

Even if Xiao Jiu became his servant, Zhou Xingzhi didn't tell him that he was actually a woman, and at the same time, he didn't know about the existence of Diu.

Only these two things, she can't tell Xiao Jiu to know!

"Really, no matter how you think about it, I feel like what I'm doing now is useless!"

Zhou Xingzhi sighed, she couldn't laugh if she wanted to, it was not enough to have the information of the capital, she also needed the opportunity to see Lingkong Mountain alone.

It is impossible to meet the emperor directly, and she actually has no bottom in her heart whether Song Lian will help her.
