Chapter 196: Fireworks Shop
I thought about it, but it still didn't work, the people who investigated Xie Fanghua haven't heard any news yet, so although Xie Fanghua's eyes are vicious, there is no substantive action at present, so I can also let it go for the time being.
I asked Qiu Jinzi about the situation at the Qingguan again.
She said that she had already found out, and that Ziqing Pavilion was a dark spot of Baili Tianqi, and because of this, she found his other two dark spots.
One is a fireworks shop, and the other is actually a money bank.
She also found out that the fireworks shop in Baili Tianqi has been purchasing a large number of materials for making fireworks recently, saying that it is for the needs of the New Year, and the two large warehouses are full of medicinal fires, but there are no craftsmen to make flowers. She felt strange, and when she checked carefully, she found that the shop did not buy crisp yellow paper for making fireworks and firecrackers, but bought a large amount of thick butter paper. Moreover, every two days, a truckload of things will be transported outside the city, and the other party is very vigilant, and she actually followed last time.
Thick butter paper... Out-of-town ......
I was puzzled at first, but then I thought that among the guests of Baili Tianqi, there was a person who was good at strange and obscene skills. At that time, he studied a trap swing that could throw boulders forward from a distance of several hundred meters.
I haven't seen him for a few years, and that Keqing has naturally researched a lot of rare things, and he was able to break through the north smoothly this time, and that Keqing has contributed a lot.
Could it be that he has researched something strange......
Pyrotechnics, butter paper, these two things, what can be studied?
Qiu Jin saw that I looked suspicious, and said, "Master, today's time is when the fireworks shop is transporting things outside the city, Qiu Jin must follow carefully today, and he will definitely not lose it again." ”
I was curious, and I wanted to see it for myself, so I gave a simple order, and she promised.
I instructed again, "You go to check the third son of the Jingdaotai family, but you still go to the Yulin Courtyard to find the Qingfeng son, if you still go, send someone to spread the rumor, saying that a son in the Ziqing Pavilion has taken a fancy to the Qingfeng son, and wants to redeem himself and choose him to enter the curtain, and the more violent the spread, the better." ”
"Yes." She answered and jumped out of the window.
I can't help why, seeing her jumping out of the window, I can always think of Xuanyuan Chen, I haven't heard from him for a few days, I really miss it.
I talked briefly, looked back and saw the four treasures of the study that I had caught up, and my mind moved, and I walked over.
After a while, a white portrait appeared on the paper.
The man in the portrait is wearing a brocade fish robe, with high hair, a smiling face, and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, fainting with all tenderness.
I stared at the portrait for a while, and my heart jumped a few times, and what rippled in my mind was that he was wearing a red robe.
"Little girl, your royal brother has come to marry you." With a slight smile in his mind, he took two steps and lifted my hijab......
As soon as my face was hot, I quickly put the portrait away and stuffed it into the scrolled porcelain.
Today's court conversation, although there are not many words, I also feel very tired. Luzhu brought a cup of ginger syrup, and after I drank it, it was warm and comfortable.
It was supposed to be lunch time, but my sleepiness came to me, thinking about taking a nap, and when I opened my eyes, it was already near the end of Shen Shi.
Luzhu waited on the side of the couch, and when he saw me wake up, he hurriedly said, "Miss, the prince is here, and I know that you will sleep again, and I won't let you come over to call, and I have been waiting in the living room for half an hour." ”
I got up and dressed, and when I arrived at the guest hall, Helian Yunnuma had already finished drinking the tea in the cup.
"Wake up." He looked up, smiling.
I answered, walked over and sat on the chair beside him, and Qing Teng hurriedly changed the tea for the two of us. I drank it and asked straight to the point, "The prince is here, but is there something?" ”
He smiled, "Why, it's okay, can't I come and have a look?" ”
I didn't answer for a while, so I had to bow my head and take a sip of tea.
The two of us haven't seen each other since the last time King Zeon reversed the defeat in my name. Originally, it was planned to cooperate, but recently, the other party is very strict, and I don't know how to start for the time being, so I can only keep a low profile.
Besides, on that day, the Qing Chan Division drew a sign, if it was placed in the past, I would never believe in this interpretation, but in extraordinary times, it is better to be cautious.
He smiled, put down the teacup, tapped his long fingers carelessly, and suddenly asked me, "Pouring Mu, if my father doesn't listen to you in the court today, and promises you to the prince of Dongmu, will you marry?" ”
I smiled slightly and asked him, "What does the prince think?" ”
He didn't know what he thought, shook his head and smiled, took a sip of the teacup.
"Pour ......," he called.
"Hmm." I looked at him sideways, and his eyes were deep, and he finally shook his head and said nothing.
After the two of us occasionally drank a cup of tea, he said goodbye.
After she left, Lu Zhu looked entangled beside her, I asked her if there was something, she thought about it, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Miss, although this royal prince is gentle, he is also the person that many Xiqi girls dream of marrying, but he already has a princess." It's much worse than that emperor's younger brother Chen, so don't change your mind! ”
I suddenly had a dark cloud, what is this......
Also, this is my maid, why is she looking at me for Xuanyuan Chen......
Seeing that I was silent, Lu Zhu became even more anxious, "Miss, you don't really have thoughts about this imperial prince, but don't!" ”
I was amused by her appearance, "How is it possible, you don't have to talk nonsense." ”
Lu Zhu seemed to be uneasy, and even began to count Xuanyuan Chen's good in my ear.
This girl, her eloquence is really good, since she was a child, she talked indecisively for nearly half an hour, and finally saw that my face changed, and she stopped talking.
At the end, she said again, "Miss, I asked Brother Donghu just now, and Brother Donghu said that His Royal Highness King Chen will come back soon after handling the big things." ”
I heard Duanmi and deliberately asked her, "Did you say when did Brother Donghu come back?" ”
She shook her head very seriously, "Brother Donghu didn't say it, he only told the slave maid this." He didn't know much about the rest. ”
I nodded, "Oh, it turns out that you Brother Donghu didn't tell you." ”
The green bead reacted immediately, and his face turned red as soon as he soared.
"Oh Miss, what did you say?"
"I didn't say anything, I just said you Brother Donghu......" I still deliberately teased her.
"The slave kitchen is still stewed with sugar water, I have to go and see it, that's what the young lady will eat in a while." After saying that, she hurriedly walked out of the door. I walked in such a hurry that I almost stepped on the corner of my skirt.
I couldn't help but smile when I looked at her delicate appearance.
How old is Luzhu and me, already past the marriageable age, that Donghu is straightforward and true, and he is really good. If the two of them can succeed, the green bead can be regarded as having a home.
It's really fate, I can't stop it, who would have thought that the green beads that used to pat my heart and say that they would stay by my side for the rest of my life also have such a time.
At this time, I thought of the seventh day of the first month. If only everyone was okay.
After a while, Qingteng came and knocked on the door, and brought a cup of sweet porridge in, I drank it slowly, and took a thick book and studied it under the lamp, and when it was near, I retreated, changed into a dark night clothes, and jumped from the window to the roof by the candlelight. After leaving the county lord's mansion, he went all the way to the east, and found Qiu Jin, who had been waiting there for a long time.
"Master." She called out, and I jumped all the way, stopped on a high-tiled roof, and then quickly took cover.
Naturally, I'm also close to the tile roof.
"Master, the gate on the right is the back door of the fireworks shop, and in a while, they will come out."
I answered, and waited. Fortunately, the sun was shining today, and the snow on the roof had melted, otherwise the two of us were dressed in black, which would have been easy to find.
After waiting for two teas, the door on the right side really opened. Two men came out of the door, pushing a cart with a huge wooden barrel on it, and although it was covered, a pungent stench still flew out.
This is......
Dung bucket for night incense......
I asked Qiu Jin, "Didn't you say that they were transporting fireworks materials?" ”
Qiu Jin replied in a low voice, "Master, the top of that bucket is night incense, and the bottom is fireworks and medicine. This fireworks shop does not employ craftsmen, and there are only a dozen people including the boss, how can there be such a large barrel of night incense every two days, and it is strange only to find out after careful inspection. ”
I see.
At this time, two more people came out of the door, and the two people before them held the car together, and walked in the direction of the city gate, and Qiu Jin and I followed.
