24. On the way back

The maidservant felt that this time it was like a nightmare to go to the banquet to enjoy the plum.

Fortunately, except for the glance on the platform, the two dialogues, Miss and the seven stars did not contact again.

The Merlin in the Princess's Courtyard was large, and the women soon dispersed, and they were companions of sisters who knew each other.

Miss Xiahou and her friends, Qixing also joined the Zhai family, during which Qixing still stayed with the five princesses, judging the size of their clothes, because of the remoteness of Xishan, the ladies retired in the afternoon.

It wasn't until she sat in her own carriage that the maid breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't feel at ease to lift the curtain and look out secretly.

Miss Xiahou sat crookedly and beat her legs and feet with a jade hammer, she was still very tired from walking around in the mermaid, and when she saw the movements of the maidservant, she sneered: "It's not a thief, what are you afraid of!" ”

The maid retracted her gaze and sat down: "Miss, you can't be unguarded, she may also catch up on the road." ”

Miss Xiahou sighed: "Then even if she goes home, she can knock on the door." ”

The maid was stunned, yes.

Miss Xiahou threw the jade hammer in her arms and said with a smile: "Don't scare yourself, she is not a person who is indiscriminate, she is asking Xucheng Linglongfang to be willing to open a branch for her in the capital, let the Zhai family treat each other as guests, the five horses dare to recommend the repair of the Royal Stargazing Pavilion, and the five princesses personally invite guests to the door." ”

Her voice was surging and she looked at the maidservant.

"Don't worry, she can already stand in front of me and make a pun and laugh, and she won't come to have any unseemly fight with me."

The goddess of servants is a little in a trance, is such a person still the poor orphan girl who Lu Sangongzi said to foster a helpless orphan girl at home?

"She may have been." Miss Xiahou said, looking at the swaying curtain, "but not anymore." ”

The maid clasped her hands, how could she not only not rest assured when she heard this, but her heart sank even more.

"Don't think about it, I don't want to be unseemly." Miss Xiahou said, "She doesn't want to, she won't embarrass me in front of people, that would be of no benefit to her." ”

Shicai was in the princess's courtyard, and the seven stars didn't deliberately get along with her, and even she had a strange idea, but Miss Seven Stars didn't look at her more.......

She didn't seem to care about her at all.

……

……

"The princess's courtyard is so beautiful."

Miss Zhai Si half lay on the pillow and sighed again.

Miss Zhai San hugged the plum blossom given by the princess in her arms and said, "That is the royal courtyard, which the emperor gave to the princess when the princess got married." ”

Miss Zhai Si got up and hugged Qixing's arm, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Qi's blessing, we can also enter and exit the princess's courtyard." ”

Originally, the Zhai family could only play with the maids when they went to the Jiang family, but later they were able to communicate with the Jiang family's main house, and they could also enter and leave the princess's mansion at this time.

"Then I told the third sister that the one you can choose is much better than the original."

Miss Zhai San snorted: "What are you talking about?" ”

It can be seen that now he really regards Qixing as a close friend in his boudoir, and this kind of thing can be said at will.

Qixing patted Miss Zhai Si's arm: "Since this is the case, then your sisters said that they are close relatives, and the dowry will come to our Linglong Workshop to fight." ”

These words made even Miss Zhai San bend over with a smile on her face.

With the sound of laughter, the chariots and horses approached the city gate quickly, and when twilight came, there were many people moving out of the city gate, and the chariots and horses moved slowly.

"I'll come down here." Qixing said suddenly.

Miss Zhai San was puzzled: "What? We're going to take you home. ”

Qixing said with a smile: "Make a plum blossom dress for the princess, some needlework to buy, I'm walking around the street." ”

If they directly said which store, they would send her there, and she said that she wanted to go shopping, then there was no way to send it, and she went to the banquet at the princess's house, and the elders of the family remembered that they would go back earlier.

The ladies of the Zhai family didn't force it anymore, said goodbye another day, and watched Qixing get out of the carriage.

It was faster to walk through the city gate, but Qixing, who was shuttling among the carriages and horses, suddenly heard a shout.

"Standing."

Qixing's footsteps stopped for a moment, and he followed the prestige, and at this time, the other people at the city gate also looked at it, and even the guards who were checking turned their heads in shock.......

Zhang Yuan, who seemed to be sleeping on the city wall, stood up straight and opened his eyes to look at Qixing.

Qixing looked at him, without the slightest fear and anxiety, only with a puzzled expression: "Poor master, I ....."

Zhang Yuan pointed to the side: "Didn't you see the queue?" What are you messing around? ”

Seven Stars groaned, lowered his head and took a step back, standing behind a carriage.

Still in line? Other passers-by were puzzled.

Now in addition to carrying prohibited weapons in and out of the city, the others are not inspected, and the guards are more to maintain order and avoid congestion at the city gates.

In fact, the city gate is wide and there is no congestion, but it looks like there are more people and more cars.

You're going to have to queue up.

The guard had a scruffy beard, a crooked robe, and a faint red thread under his eyes, which made his stare very scary.

Other pedestrians who were about to cross the carriage and horses quietly moved into the queue.

Seeing the woman standing behind the carriage and horses, as the queue quickly passed through the city gate, Zhang Yuan didn't say anything more, and closed his eyes again, as if he was just having hysteria.

"What are you doing, Lao Zhang?" One of the guards was a little amused, "I've never seen you so diligent before." ”

Since he ran for a long time and came back, Zhang Yuan didn't skip work, but he looked like he was breaking a jar, he was napping against the city wall every day, and he went to drink if he didn't guard the city wall, and he was drunk for half a day.

What kind of crazy thing is today, and he even scolded people to line up.

It's a big deal if people don't line up.

Zhang Yuan lowered his eyelids and squirted from his nose: "Look at her stupid appearance, she can't walk." ”

What stupidity? They also took a look, she was clearly a very good-looking woman, and her eyebrows and eyes were well-behaved, Lao Zhang saw that others were easy to bully, it was really ......

Zhang Yuan closed his eyes again, what do you know, a woman who was deceived by a man is not clear-headed, so she has to scold a few more words.

……

……

Seven Stars walked out of the city gate, looked back, seemed a little confused, and then continued on his way, walking down the street into the large and small needlework shops.

When he didn't know how many to enter, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Girl, we have better needlework behind us, you can see if there is a picture." ”

Qixing glanced at him: "Okay." Sure enough, he walked backwards.

The shop is not large, with a shed in the yard and shelves, and at this time there is a table next to the shelf, and someone is sitting and drinking tea.

Qixing walked over and gave a salute: "Lord Liu." ”

Liu Yan looked at her with a teacup and said, "You got off the bus halfway, did you notice that someone was following you?" ”

Qixing nodded, whether it was around Linglong Fang, whether it was her daily travel, there were snoops and tracks, but she knew who they were, the people of the rich man, and the people of the Metropolitan Judge.

But today there is a strange atmosphere.

"In order to avoid implicating the innocent young lady, I got out of the car and walked, by the way, to see what the intention was." Qixing continued, "It turned out to be Lord Liu. ”

Unexpectedly, after discovering that she was aware, Lord Liu would actually meet her directly.

She looked at Liu Yan: "Your Excellency has really recognized my identity." ”

Liu Yan held the teacup and lowered his eyes, as if he was distracted, and suddenly asked, "Your name, Qixing?" ”

Seven Stars sighed: "Yes." ”

Q: What does the name mean? Didn't he already know? Like a pre-trial used to it?

Liu Yan raised his eyes to look at her: "Is this the name your mother gave you?" ”

And to ask who gave the name, Qixing frowned slightly, this is the first time I have seen this kind of question.

"It's not." She shook her head, "It was my father." ”

Liu Yan held the teacup and was slightly distracted: "It turned out that my father gave it up, so I didn't use the name Nine Needles." ”

This was not a question, just his own words, but suddenly the woman replied in his ears.

"Yes." She said, "My sister's name is Jiu Needle. ”
