Chapter 46: Burning incense

The next day, Shen Yulan brought a few entourages early in the morning and said to his adjutant Du Lan that he wanted to take a look at the Xuanjia cavalry camp, and Du Lan naturally did not dare to disobey, so he immediately arranged for the people. After Shen Yulan and his entourage left in a majestic manner, her personal maid Xiangjun sneaked out of the room and asked the shopkeeper in the lobby about the location of Ning Xiang Pavilion. The shopkeeper only said that this distinguished customer was going to buy some incense for women, so he enthusiastically and in detail informed Xiangjun Ning Xiangge where the store was located.

In addition to planting those precious herbs at home these days, Pei Lan was also called to the shop to help by Yun Chuan, who was very busy, she was clever and learned things quickly, so that Yun Chuan called Su Qingci can be regarded as a good vision, and sometimes he can rest assured that Pei Lan will be alone in the shop.

On this day, Yun Chuan went to deliver the goods ordered before to several big customers in Ningxiang Pavilion, and it happened that Pei Lan was the only one guarding the shop. She was carefully checking the goods in the store when a woman walked in with a handkerchief fanning her wind and muttering to herself.

"Your shop, why is it so remote, so easy for me to find."

When Pei Lan heard the voice, she turned around and saw a guest coming to the store, and after a rough look at this person's dress, she knew that she must be the maid of a noble lady, so she greeted her with a smile: "This girl has just come to Xijiang City, right?" But what do you want to buy? ”

Xiangjun looked Pei Lan up and down carefully, and was about to open his mouth, but he thought of Shen Yulan's instructions, so he changed his words and said: "My young lady smelled a smell of incense a few days ago, and I heard that it was sold in your shop, but my young lady didn't ask the name of the incense, but only sent me to see if I could find it." ”

Pei Lan was a little embarrassed: "We have a hundred kinds of incense here, but it is difficult for me for the girl to say this." ”

"Then let me ask you," Xiangjun smiled and put away his handkerchief, staring at Pei Lan with a pair of eyes: "The third son of Ji who is riding in Xuanjia, what kind of incense does he use?" My young lady smelled it at Ji Sangongzi. ”

Su Qingci was hired by Ji Sangongzi, the commander of the Xuanjia Cavalry, to treat this matter these days, Pei Lan knew a little under Yun Chuan's thoughts, and when he heard Pei Lan mention the three words of Xuanjia Cavalry, he chuckled in his heart, and couldn't help but deal with it with twelve points.

She walked behind the counter with a smile on her face: "Ah, that's a distinguished guest, I have to check it." ”

As she spoke, she took out the ledger in the store that recorded the list of goods ordered by each customer and pretended to look through it, while thinking about how to deal with it. After a while, she closed the notebook and said to Xiangjun with an apologetic face: "I'm really sorry, I don't remember the name of the incense here, I think it must be made specifically for guests, so I didn't remember it here." ”

"Isn't the person who made the incense in the shop now?" Xiangjun frowned, "When can I come back, my young lady is in a hurry." ”

"The head of my family happened to go out to deliver goods today." Pei Lan smiled: "It's better for the girl to come back another day." ”

How can that work! If you don't find anything, how can you explain it to the young lady when you go back?! Xiangjun rolled her eyes in her heart. After thinking about it, he raised his voice and asked, "Is it a man or a woman who is in charge of your family?" What is the age? Where? ”

Before he could answer, he heard a joking voice coming from outside the door.

"Yo, ask so carefully, this girl doesn't seem to come to buy things, but like she came to say goodbye."

Pei Lan breathed a sigh of relief the moment she heard this voice, and walked out from behind the counter with a grateful smile and stepped forward to take the things in Yun Chuan's hand: "Shopkeeper, you are back." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Hearing him be so rude, Xiangjun turned his head a little angrily and was about to have a seizure, but when he saw Yun Chuan's appearance clearly, he was stunned for a moment and blushed slightly. But she remembered what Shen Yulan had confessed, and quickly adjusted her mood.

"You are the shopkeeper of the Incense Pavilion? Then let me ask you, the incense used by the third son of Xuanjia riding Ji is made by you? ”

"That's what you said...... Yun Chuan heard Ji Yanzhou's name, his eyes flashed imperceptibly, and he replied, "It is indeed made by the Ning Xiang Pavilion." ”

Xiangjun crossed his waist and said: "Yes, it's good, after my young lady smelled it a few days ago, she liked it very much, and ordered the same." ”

"That's not going to happen." Yun Chuan lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked, "That incense can only be burned by that third prince of Ji." However, I have a smell of fragrance here, so why don't you smell it and see if you like it? ”

Xiangjun looked at Yun Chuan's handsome face, and forgot to refuse for a while. So she was taken by Yun Chuan to the back hall of the shop to sit down, and watched Yun Chuan take out an extraordinarily delicate incense burner from the bottom drawer of the sandalwood shelf, and took out incense from a black box and lit it and put it into the furnace under Pei Lan's somewhat surprised and panicked eyes, and after watching the faint smoke drift out of the incense burner, Yun Chuan personally poured a cup of tea for her.

"It's too early, why don't you take a break here and taste this fragrance slowly?"
