Volume 1 Old Dreams Chapter 69 Flower Picker
"Lord Liang, you are majestic this time!" Tao Yaoyao sat on the main seat and said, Biyun and Biyu stood on either side of her.
"Thanks to Niangniang's blessing, it's just-" Liang Gaoliang smiled and looked at the woman in front of him dressed as a man.
"Stop! Don't learn from those guys! "Hurry up and stop it.
"Niangniang is out of the palace this time, but does the emperor have any orders?" Liang highlights the positive color channel.
"It's nothing, it's just a walk." Tao Yaoyao explained with a smile.
"Oh? That lady wants to go back to Tao Mansion? Liang Gaoliang asked again.
"I won't go back this time, it's the ceremony in a month, and I can't stand it when I go back and worship at this time." Tao Xiaoyao shook her head.
"That's—"
"We'll go back to the palace tomorrow, and we've found an inn to stay in tonight." Tao Yaoyao interrupted him.
"That's fine." Liang Gaoliang said with a smile.
"Then let's leave first, Lord Liang doesn't have to send it, we still want to take a low-key break." Tao Yaoyao took a sip of tea and got up and said.
"Congratulations to the mother." Liang Gaoliang also got up to send him off.
After Tao Yaoyao and a few people left, Liang Gaoliang didn't turn around for a long time.
"Your Excellency?" The new squad leader spoke up.
"What's your name?" Liang Gaoliang asked lightly.
"Small tension. Your Excellency, please command. ”
"From today onwards, you will be responsible for undertaking the case, and if there is any problem, the official will ask you." Liang Gaoliang said majestically.
"Adults don't worry, small ones don't dare to be negligent." Zhang Li hurriedly knelt down.
"If you do it well, this official will ask for credit for you in front of the emperor, and will never break his word. Those who used to be related to their relatives and did nothing should find an opportunity to remove them, but if you let me know that you have a personal vendetta, hum! Liang Gaoliang's eyes sharpened, Tao Yao would definitely be surprised, I didn't expect such a bookish man to be so aggressive.
"The small ones don't dare, more adults will be promoted, and the small ones will do their best!" Zhang Zhang was originally a little official who had nothing to do with him, but he didn't expect to have such an opportunity today, so he naturally cherished it very much. After hearing Liang Gaoliang's words, he was even more confident, ready to do a big job and perform well.
Tao Yaoyao took the two of them quickly past the mansion and walked towards the inn. This inn was arranged by Xiaoshan, and there was nothing special on the surface, but in essence, it had been taken down by Dade as a pawn.
Tao Yaoyao has always felt that when she came out, Qing Yezhuo would definitely send someone to protect her secretly, so that it would not be easy to be discovered.
"Niangniang, Xiaoshan doesn't know how he's been lately?" Biyun asked.
"Won't we see you later? How long will it take? Tao asked rhetorically.
"Oh, that's it!" Biyun craned his neck and looked around.
"Dust Inn, the name has some meaning." Tao Yaoyao looked at the signboard above and muttered to herself.
Mingzhu is covered with dust, and I don't know what kind of person the original shopkeeper would give such a name.
"Is the guest officer a top-notch, or is he staying in a hotel?" As soon as Tao Yaoyao and a few people entered the door, a small guy came up to them.
"We're staying at the hotel, and it's been arranged." Biyun stepped forward and said.
"Guest, please come with me." The little guy led them to the counter.
"The person who arranged it was surnamed Dai." Biyun said.
"It turned out that the distinguished guests came to the door, quickly, and took the distinguished guests to Tianzi No. 1 and Tianzi No. 2!" When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately raised his head, and his wrinkled face squeezed out a smile.
"Childe, this shopkeeper's laughter is terrible!" Jasper patted her heart.
"Poof." Tao Yaoyao laughed out loud, Jasper, you are really- either you don't speak, and as soon as you speak, you will die.
"Guest, these two are the only ones." The little guy was also more polite.
There are only four rooms on the entire third floor, and the first and second rooms of Tianzi are on the opposite door, which are very close.
"I've rewarded you with this, go fetch a bucket of water, and I'm cooking some good dishes." Biyun took out a piece of broken silver and handed it over.
"Thank you, officer, I'll do it." When the little man saw that there was still silver, he smiled and went to pour water.
"Mother, I'll wait for you to take a bath." Jasper said as she closed the door.
"No need, if outsiders see me, they still think I'm a prodigal son! Go and rest early. ”
"This—" Biyun and Jasper both hesitated.
"Alright, these two rooms are connected together, and I will call you something." Tao Xiaoyao urged with a smile.
"Alright then, mother, call us if you have any orders!" Jasper emphasized again, this temperament is really cautious.
"Yes, yes, Miss Bi, go and rest!" Tao Yaoyao smiled and pushed them out of the room.
The room was finally quiet, and the heat from the barrel kept rising, and Tao Yao sighed softly and took off her clothes.
"Hmm-" Sure enough, it's the most comfortable to take a shower or something after a tiring day.
Too many things have happened during this time, she has been in this world for half a year, from apprenticeship to entering the palace to today's position as a concubine, from being unfamiliar to now having these friends and even relatives, Biyun, Biyu, Xiaoshan, Cheng Zinuo, and - Qing Ye Zhuo.
Tao Yaoyao didn't know when she cared so much about this man, was it the first time she was moved by his service to the country and the people, or was it the first time she was attracted by his night reading? She didn't know any of that, she didn't even know she was asleep.
"Poof-" Tao Xiaoyao woke up with a mouthful of water.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" She quickly got up, the water was already cold, but she didn't notice it.
"I'll go, don't be hit by a car, don't fall off a cliff and die, don't be burned to death, don't be thought of by people, if I take a bath and fall asleep and drown, then I am really the first person in the ages!" She casually put on a coat and laughed at herself after calming her emotions.
Suddenly, Tao Xiaoyao felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and she shivered when she had just soaked in cold water.
"Ahh She was about to get up to close the window when a figure appeared behind the screen.
"Who's there!" Tao Yaoyao subconsciously took a step back.
The next second, his mouth was covered by a large hand.
"Don't shout, it's me."
Why is this sound so familiar?
Tao Yaoyao nodded slightly, and the hand slowly let go. After Tao Yao saw the Qing people, he turned to smile.
"The second prince of Nansu, how come you have the time to climb the window to me, didn't you climb the wrong window of Chunyi Building?"
"If it weren't for the secret guard next to him, he wouldn't be this flower thief."
Sure enough, Qing Yezhuo sent a secret guard to follow her, and Tao Yaoyao's heart warmed, and her tone was not so mean.
"What does the second prince want to say at this time?"
"Since I'm outside, I'm still the same page, and you're still the same child, okay?" Gu Zhiqi's eyes were full of hope.
"I'm naturally a peach, and as for you—do you think Miss Ben will hold you like a prince?" Tao Yaoyao didn't think about the deep meaning of these words at all, and rolled her eyes and said.
"That'll be fine." Gu Zhiqi's expression softened, and there was some joy in his eyes.
"Tell me what the hell is going on?" Tao asked angrily, sitting on the stool.
Can you speak in a good tone? Entering the house through the window on this big night, she was startled!
"Now Linglong Pavilion has a reputation in Xiaocheng, and the branches have also opened a lot, I can't stay in Xiaocheng for a long time, and I will return to Nansu tomorrow. If you want to go to Nansu - take this to Jinshifang, I have already arranged it. "Gu Zhiqi's sincerity doesn't look like a fake.
"You...... What are the conditions? Tao Xiaoyao took the small golden round token and couldn't help but ask.
"Conditions? There really is one. Gu Zhiqi smiled.
"I knew it." Tao Yaoyao muttered quietly, sure enough, pies will not fall from the sky.
"The condition is that after I leave, I must take care of myself." Gu Zhiqi said with a chuckle.
"This-" Peach was stunned, it's that simple?
"If you feel indebted, it's better to think of more ways to improve the business of Jinshifang." Gu Zhiqi knew her a little and knew that she didn't want to owe anyone, so he said these words to give her a step down.
"Hmmm! Deal! Tao Xiaoxiao held out her little thumb.
"It's a deal." Gu Zhiqi looked at the little thumb and responded with a smile.
"One more thing." Tao Yaoyao thought about it for a while, and asked after taking a sip of tea.
"Huh?"
"Do you know why Situ Zhao entered the palace?"
"Situ Zhao is the eldest daughter of the Situ family, the ancestors of the Situ family and the ancestors of the Anyang family are close friends, it can be said that half of Ximo's country was laid by the Situ family, but the Situ family withdrew from the political dispute and was willing to live in seclusion. Over the years, he has also had some prestige in the rivers and lakes. Gu Zhiqi looked at Tao Yaoyao carefully and said.
"I know all this, it is a taboo to have high merit and shock the master, and the ancestor of the Situ family withdrew from the government to protect himself, but why does the Situ family have no official position, and Situ Zhao still wants to enter the Beigao Palace?"
"I only know one of them, and the second is that although the Situ family has no official position, An Yanglie's father, An Yangyuan, has always liked to travel privately to the people, and I met Situ Zhao's mother at that time, but the queen is jealous by nature, powerful and powerful, and has a son of An Yanglie, so-" Gu Zhiqi said seriously.
"Are you saying that Situ Zhao is An Yanglie's half-sister!" Tao Yaoyao was surprised.
"The nature of the Ximo people is still simple, coupled with the scarcity of land and food, and the products are not abundant, there are not many births and marriages."
"I see." So Situ Zhao is actually an illegitimate child.
Tao Yaoyao was very surprised, and stood up from the stool suddenly, and the already loose robe suddenly slipped off half of her shoulder, and half of her shoulder came into view. The skin fat is like jade, the green silk is scattered at will at this moment, and the hibiscus is pure and beautiful without powder, and the half-exposed shoulders add some charm to her whole person, adding some enchantment.
Gu Zhiqi blushed all of a sudden, and he didn't know where to look.
"If there is anything to do, go to Jinshifang, and someone will be able to convey it to me. I'll take my leave! In a few moments, he jumped out of the window.
"Holy!" Tao Yaoyao hurriedly walked to the side of the bed and looked down, and the person was gone.
"This is the third floor!" The legendary light work is really powerful! Tao Yaoyao was already thinking about how to let him teach herself the next time I saw him.
"However, how can this Gu Qi be so kind? Forget it, let's go back and let Xiaoshan bring more gambling money to the past! "I don't think much about it, anyway, there are a lot of things that make money in modern times, and it's just a no-brainer to buy and sell, and you don't make money in vain.
"People say that all the moons in the world that can be seen more are this round, I don't know if you are also looking at this round of bright moon from so far away?"
