Chapter 166: A Breeze on Both Sleeves
Lin Xueqi stepped out of the palace again, even though she knew that she was about to face the gossiping people, but she still wanted to listen to the people's words.
In order to avoid being recognized, she changed into a coarse linen dress and went out with a veil.
Walking through the streets, I finally walked into a teahouse, where the storyteller talked about what was happening in the palace, causing a burst of boasting.
Seeing the familiar figure, even though the clothes had changed, the storyteller still saw her, smiled slightly, and said hello.
Lin Xueqi also returned with a light smile, and invited Xiao Er to order a plate of peanuts, as well as a few jars of daughter red, and some snacks, so he didn't want anything else.
Xiao Er's speed was very fast, and the dishes were quickly ready, the storyteller said that his mouth was dry, and when he saw a few jars of wine on Lin Xueqi's table, and some delicious appetizers, he cleared his throat, dispersed those people, and then sat down opposite Lin Xueqi unceremoniously.
Lin Xueqi raised her eyebrows, looking at Mr. Storyteller so unkindly, her lips pulled slightly, "Is it so familiar?" Please eat? ”
The storyteller was stunned for a while, and then said: "Then nine ......" As soon as he said the word 'nine', he was interrupted by Lin Xueqi.
I saw Lin Xueqi make a static movement on his lips, no matter how stupid Mr. Storyteller was, it was impossible not to see what Lin Xueqi meant by doing this.
"Tell me to abandon the snow. The abandonment of abandonment, the flower of snowflakes, don't call it wrong. Lin Xueqi blinked, she came out dressed like this, she just didn't want too many people to know about her.
Mr. Storyteller nodded and continued what he had just said, "Then why is Miss Qixue sitting here and greeting me just now?" Besides, I never knew that Miss Qixue was still drinking. ”
"I'm sure you're a smart man, and you should be able to guess what I'm here for. Now the people in the capital, do they all know? Lin Xueqi's vague question made the storyteller listen in a fog.
But after thinking about it, what kind of eldest princess has appeared out of nowhere in the past few days was killed by the emperor, and even the previous emperor was killed by the emperor.
"It's been really boiling recently, and what I just said is also about this, what? Is this Miss Abandoned Snow, you passed it on? The storyteller leaned in and said.
Lin Xueqi chuckled, remained silent, pointed to the dishes on the plate, and said lightly: "Eat quickly, these jars of wine are all bought for you, and you know, I don't drink." ”
Mr. Storyteller is ecstatic, rich people are different!
Wealthy, big, coarse.
Naturally, he only dared to say this in his heart, if he said it to his face...... He should be able to think of his fate, either being played to death by Lin Xueqi, or being tortured to death by the mad demon Mo Xichen, who protects his wife.
Lin Xueqi raised her eyebrows slightly, and beckoned Xiao Er, "I'll pay for these jars of wine, as for these dishes, let him pay for them himself." ”
Mr. Storyteller took the chopsticks and looked at Lin Xueqi with a stunned expression, "Miss Qixue, your words don't count!" Isn't that what you're going to ask me for?! ”
"I only said that I invited you to these jars of wine, who said that these dishes are too?" Lin Xueqi chuckled, didn't ask the price, and directly put down a silver ingot.
Xiao Er found the money, put it in Lin Xueqi's hand respectfully, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you take it." And you, guest officer, are you going to settle the bill too? ”
Mr. Storyteller slandered in his heart: profiteers! This is blackmail!
Knowing this, why did he run over with his fart? If he had known this result, he would not have come to waste money if he died!
In the end, under the coercion of Xiao Er, he had to reluctantly reach into his pocket and hand out his hard-earned money.
Lin Xueqi sighed, as for it?
In the end, she gave the money she found to the storyteller, which was really of little use to her.
It is not false to say that her family has a lot of money, and seeing Mr. Storyteller handing out his money so painfully, how could she not know that this hard-earned money is heartbroken?
Before she became a miracle doctor, she also relied on a little money to get by, and she had experienced the hardships of earning money through hard work.
Seeing that there was a lot of money, more than the money he paid, Mr. Storyteller immediately showed the expression that a profiteer should have, "Since Miss Qixue is so unkind, then I will accept it unceremoniously!" ”
Saying that, for fear that Lin Xueqi would regret it, he immediately put the money in his pocket, looked at Lin Xueqi with a smile, and showed a mouthful of white teeth.
Lin Xueqi smiled helplessly and got up, "Then Mr. will eat first, I'll leave first, there are other things to do." ”
"Didn't Miss Abandoned Snow come to me? Ask me about this capital? What else is there that I don't know? "After eating for nothing, and harvesting a lot of silver, he felt that he didn't do anything, and he really couldn't feel at ease with this kind of uselessness.
"I just came here and met Mr. by accident, if you want to ask him about other things, then you don't have to. But if there is any latest news, you can wait in this teahouse, and you can also pass the book of the flying pigeon. ”
She usually has nothing to do, she will come out for a walk, these days, there is nothing big in the palace, and she is aggrieved in the palace, so it is better to come out and walk around.
"That's good." The storyteller nodded, rested for a while, finished the food in front of the table, and went back to the same place, pulling his throat to attract guests.
Lin Xueqi also walked out of the teahouse, and when he passed by some people, he heard them bowing their heads and talking about this log and the truth five years ago.
"Tut-tut, I didn't expect the emperor to be so human-faced and beast-hearted, and even killed his own imperial sister. Pity our ninth princess, she has no parents since she was a child, and now she is afraid that in front of the enemy who killed her parents, she still calls 'uncle' one by one, right? ”
"Yes, yes, the Ninth Princess is really pitiful, but tomorrow seems to be her enthronement ceremony, the first female emperor in history! The emperor should have found in good conscience that he would not pass the throne to the crown prince. ”
"That's what he owes them! It is said that the first emperor originally planned to pass on the eldest princess, but the emperor did not comply, not only harmed the first emperor, but also harmed the eldest princess's family, and finally tampered with the holy decree! ”
Lin Xueqi listened to their indignant discussions lightly, and her red lips hooked slightly.
These gossips should soon reach the emperor's ears.
She was a little excited, how the emperor would react.
Lin Xueqi's figure disappeared into an alley, and after a while, it suddenly brightened in front of him, and in front of the door was a group of children of the same age playing.
"Sister Princess!"
Even though Lin Xueqi wore a veil, the sharp-eyed Chen Ranju still recognized Lin Xueqi at a glance, she happily ran out of the children's pile, came to Lin Xueqi's side, and giggled.
"Sister Princess is finally willing to come to see the little orange!"
Lin Xueqi bent down and scratched Chen Ranju's little nose, "You." She smiled, and finally took out two ingots of silver to Yijian's parents, "I've been bothering you to take care of her these days, so let's buy them some food." ”
Then she gave everyone two ingots of silver, and in the end, it was really 'two sleeves of fresh air'.
Fortunately, there are not many poor people in this alley, otherwise with her money, it would not be enough.
"Thank you, Princess Nine. I heard that tomorrow is your enthronement ceremony, and we must go to see the Nine Princesses in dragon robes at that time! Everyone coaxed.
Lin Xueqi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Okay, when the time comes, you will come to see my king's land." ”
She touched Chen Ranju's little head, a little reluctant, "What about me, there is something else, come here, just look at the little orange and give you some silver taels, it can be regarded as my meager strength." As long as I ascend the throne, the Mo Dynasty will definitely not be bad. ”
They looked at each other for a moment, and finally smiled, "We all believe that the Nine Princesses can give it a go." Our life is given by you, and we will fully support you in whatever you do. ”
"Thank you." Lin Xueqi bowed slightly, "Then I'll go first." ”
When Chen Ranju saw that Lin Xueqi was leaving, he was about to shout, but he was pulled by Yichen, only to see Yichen shake his head gently, Chen Ranju could only pout and watch Lin Xueqi's back leave unhappily.
Walking out of the alley, Lin Xueqi was relaxed.
- The silver and silver are all gone, and there is no burden, how can she not be easy?!
In the end, she still has some pain, no matter how you say it, it's all money......
Thinking of this, Lin Xueqi sighed slightly and walked towards the last destination.
After almost five minutes, the Li Yan shop appeared in front of her again, still a closed door and a restaurant that no one cared about.
The door opened, and Bai Yi appeared in Lin Xueqi's sight, "I saw that the ninth princess was coming, fortunately, it didn't open late." ”
Lin Xueqi was stunned for a moment, and then flashed into the door, "You did a good job this time, and the streets are full of people talking." Lin Xueqi got straight to the point.
"What the Nine Princesses said must be done and done well. From tomorrow, it will be the Nine Princesses who will take over this Mo Dynasty, our Xia Dynasty, I'm afraid the Nine Princesses won't be able to take care of it, right? It's tiring to take care of two countries together. Bai Yi remembered that there was no emperor in their country, and when he thought that the princess of their country had become the empress of the Mo Dynasty, he couldn't help but feel a little stuffy.
"I've got a good candidate for that." Lin Xueqi leaned back on the chair, and already had a clear idea in his mind, "Xia Dynasty, there will be someone to manage." These few months, after working hard for you, you can have a good rest. ”
"It's not hard, for the revival of the Xia Dynasty, these bitter Bai Yi can still be eaten." Bai Yi shook his head and smiled lightly.
Lin Xueqi stood up and patted Bai Yi's shoulder, "Don't worry, I will make it rich and strong again in the Xia Dynasty." Now I'll go back first, and if there's anything you can tell me through a storyteller in a teahouse down the street. ”
When Bai Yi heard this, he felt a little weird, "This time the Nine Princesses came, didn't there be any task to Bai Yi?" ”
Lin Xueqi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "It's not good to want to give you a task, right?" You can rest in peace and recharge your batteries. ”
With that, she walked away.
Bai Yi, who had no task, was idle, and he didn't know what to do, so he finally chose to cook a few dishes to treat himself, and dragged his tired body into the room.
As Lin Xueqi said, he is indeed tired and it is time to rest.
