Chapter Seventy-Four: A Visit to the Bright Moon Pavilion
Early the next morning, Qi Mengyao summoned the four women into the Yixia Hall in the name of the queen, originally she still had some confidence, but when she first saw these four people, Qi Mengyao had already collapsed, looked at Ye Ningxiang pitifully with desperate and helpless eyes, and then almost cried and said, "You guys go down first." ”
As soon as these women heard that the queen was going to make herself a beauty, they were so happy that they almost forgot who they were, and they didn't notice the queen's embarrassed look at all, and they smiled and thanked them and walked towards their temporary residence in the Yixia Palace.
"Sister Ning Xiang, what should I do! If I can't complete this task, will the Queen Mother punish me very harshly? Will she send me to the cold palace? Will she not?"
Before Qi Mengyao's words were finished, Ye Ningxiang interrupted her very boldly, holding her hand while smiling and comforting: "No, Ningxiang will help the queen, and will definitely let the queen complete this task as scheduled." ”
Listening to Ye Ningxiang's words, Qi Mengyao seemed to be greatly encouraged, and a slight smile appeared on her face, "Thank you, Sister Ningxiang!"
Next, Qi Mengyao moved almost all the people from the Imperial Medical Department to Yixia Palace, but most of the imperial doctors were from a medical family, and they were used to seeing diseases one by one, but they didn't have any countermeasures for the "incurable diseases" of the four of them.
After sending the imperial doctor away, Ye Ningxiang had a very bold idea, so she smiled and said to Qi Mengyao: "Queen Mother, why don't we go out of the palace and find Tulangzhong to help!"
As soon as she heard that she was out of the palace, Qi Mengyao took away all her sadness and said with a very expectant look: "Okay, okay, let's go." After speaking, Qi Mengyao really walked towards the outside of the palace.
Ye Ningxiang stopped her and said cautiously: "We are secretly out of the palace, it is definitely not okay to dress like this, I have to help you dress up well." ”
In the end, the two pretended to be two little eunuchs, and sneaked into Mu Jingyuan's study to steal a piece of exit from the palace, and swaggered out of the palace as if they were at ease. Because the eunuch clothes were too eye-catching, the two changed into ordinary women's clothes as soon as they left the palace.
probably didn't expect that he would be able to wander around the street as freely as he did when he was not married, Qi Mengyao jumped up and down like a monkey, and as if he had never been on the street, he wanted to see everything and want everything. After wandering around the street like this for a long time, Ye Ningxiang finally couldn't help but speak: "Niangniang, don't forget that we still have business!"
"Yes, but this Jing'an City is so big, where can I find Tulangzhong who can cure diseases?"
"There is an organization called Mingyue Pavilion on the rivers and lakes, which specializes in solving people's doubts for a living, maybe we can find the answer from there. Besides, on that day, the Lady Niangniang got married, and the Lord of the Bright Moon Pavilion also went to participate, so he will definitely help us in the future. ”
Ye Ningxiang felt that there seemed to be some secret between Qin Mingyue and Mu Xize, and she really didn't know much about Qin Mingyue, a legendary figure, so she took advantage of the accident of transforming the ugly girl to guide Qi Mengyao to Mingyue Pavilion, so as to give herself one more chance to understand Qin Mingyue.
But where is this mysterious Bright Moon Pavilion? Ye Ningxiang was distressed for a while.
When she was studying art with Master before, Master had taught her that the more places where there were three religions and nine streams, the easier it would be to ask what she wanted to know, and the places where Jing'an City was mixed with people probably belonged to those low-class inns with a not very good environment.
The hard work paid off, and after checking three such inns, finally in the fourth inn, Ye Ningxiang and Qi Mengyao found clues to Mingyue Pavilion.
A well-dressed young man sat in the corner of the inn, as if he was waiting for them there, not long after they entered the inn, the man took the initiative to ask them if they were looking for the whereabouts of the Mingyue Pavilion, and then the person actually took the initiative to take them to the Mingyue Pavilion.
Along the way, Ye Ningxiang thought that the young man was a bad person, and kept testing him with words, and finally came to a conclusion: This person was actually deliberately placed on the street by Mingyue Pavilion to solicit customers.
As the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, but if there is too much alcohol, those fragrant wines hidden deep in the alleys will also lose their competitiveness. Even if the business of this Bright Moon Pavilion is good, someone needs to sell it, if no one sells it, no one knows, even if the results are good now, it will be replaced by other institutions sooner or later.
Mingyue Pavilion is a very fresh and elegant small building, much smaller than Xiao Qingyu's Yipinju, but it has a unique charm. After all, it is a place with a great reputation in the rivers and lakes, and the subordinates in this Mingyue Pavilion seem to be different from other places, all of them have elegant temperaments, as if they are well-educated, and they are all respectful to their guests.
Ye Ningxiang and there were five people in front of them, and the maidservants of Mingyue Pavilion prepared good snacks and fruits for the two of them, coaxing the hearts of the two of them to be warm, even if they returned without success today, Ye Ningxiang would give this Mingyue Pavilion a hundred points for service.
At this time, Mingyue Pavilion, which was originally happy, suddenly became tense, because a person who should have a high status in the rivers and lakes in his costume was thrown out of the house by someone, and he hit the ground first, and his face was immediately covered with blood.
The man roared angrily: "Do you know what my identity is, uncle, you little girl still dare to do this to me! Tomorrow I will find someone to set foot in this Mingyue Pavilion, hum!" After speaking, the man covered his head with his hands and walked towards the outside of Mingyue Pavilion in embarrassment.
"Xiao Lu, this person slanders women, and he still wants to step on the Mingyue Pavilion, what do you think I should do?" This pleasant voice came from the inner hall, obviously the voice was very beautiful, but it revealed a trace of coolness, which made Ye Ningxiang shudder in her heart, and she actually regretted coming to this Mingyue Pavilion full of rivers and lakes.
I saw a young man who had been guarding the door and replied respectfully: "It was Xiao Lu who didn't think about it and made Miss Shuang bother, Xiao Lu must solve this arrogant person as soon as possible and not let the pavilion master worry." ”
After speaking, Xiao Lu walked towards the direction where the man left with a murderous face, and then Ye Ningxiang heard the man's miserable scream, and it was estimated that he had lost his life.
Ye Ningxiang and Qi Mengyao looked at each other for a moment, with a trace of fear on their faces, and they didn't dare to whisper in private anymore, for fear that someone would be caught and killed.
Seeing such a fierce and cruel scene, the few people in front of Ye Ningxiang didn't dare to stay for a moment, and they all found reasons to excuse themselves, and then lowered their heads and walked out of Mingyue Pavilion by the side.
The people of Mingyue Pavilion did not stay, but came directly to Ye Ningxiang and Qi Mengyao, and said respectfully: "Two young ladies, please come in." ”
After all, she used to be a young lady from an official family, Qi Mengyao hid nervously behind Ye Ningxiang, and she didn't dare to make a sound. Ye Ningxiang pretended to be very calm, patted the back of Qi Mengyao's hand, and glanced at Qi Mengyao, meaning that it would be fine with her.
Behind the white gauze tent in the room sat a young woman dressed in white, because of the barrier of the white gauze and the fact that the woman was still masked, Ye Ningxiang did not immediately see the woman's appearance.
The woman looked at the two of them for a moment before she smiled and asked, "Do you two sisters have any questions you want to ask?"
I thought that this person would be as terrifying as a fierce god, but I didn't expect it to give people a very docile and kind feeling, and the fear in Ye Ningxiang and Qi Mengyao's hearts suddenly disappeared by half.
"We were looking for someone who knew how to lose weight quickly, correct strabismus, treat injured legs, and get rid of birthmarks. Ye Ningxiang said all their requirements in one go.
After listening to Ye Ningxiang's answer, the woman seemed to think it was very funny and couldn't stop laughing, "Your request is very peculiar!"
After speaking, she took out the pen and paper, wrote down Ye Ningxiang's needs on the paper, and then put it into a very delicate small wooden box. After doing this series of things, the woman had no intention of leaving anyone, and said directly: "You just need to come back at this time tomorrow, and the person you are looking for at that time, Mingyue Pavilion will find it for you." ”
When he was about to walk out of the inner hall, Ye Ningxiang plucked up his courage and said: "A few days ago, I had a relationship with this Bright Moon Pavilion master, and today I came to this Bright Moon Pavilion to ask about things, but also to catch up with the pavilion master, I wonder if the pavilion master is in this Bright Moon Pavilion at this moment?"
"I'm afraid the girl is going to be disappointed, the pavilion master is not in the Mingyue Pavilion now. ”
"There's Miss Rush. After speaking, Ye Ningxiang led Qi Mengyao out of the Bright Moon Pavilion.
I thought that I could take this opportunity to see Qin Mingyue again, but I didn't expect to be sent away by a woman who didn't even see her face, the key is that this woman is still a character who is not easy to mess with, Ye Ningxiang was a little disappointed in her heart. But fortunately, Mingyue Pavilion promised to find them the person they wanted tomorrow, and it was a bit rewarding for this trip.
Ye Ningxiang and Qi Mengyao had just walked out of the inner hall, and there was suddenly an extra person in the room where there should have only been the masked woman, and this person was Qin Mingyue.
"Pavilion Master, why did you avoid Ye Ningxiang just now?"
"Frost, many times acquaintance is better than not acquaintance, Ye Ningxiang is thoughtful, the more contact with her, the more she will be exposed. ”
"Pavilion Master, does she still have to pass on this question to the Fuheng Chamber of Commerce?"
"Transmission, naturally it must be transmitted, and matters related to King Ning himself naturally need to be informed to the parties!" Saying this, Qin Mingyue finally showed a long-lost smile.
Since the accident of Princess Ning's family seven years ago, Qin Mingyue and Mu Xize had a great dislike, and the Mingyue Pavilion and the Shadow Guard, who were originally almost one, also separated because of this, although there is still a connection at work, but every account is also clearly calculated, and there is no excessive affection.
Since then, whenever Mu Xize is mentioned, Qin Mingyue always has a solemn face and a sad expression. Seeing that Qin Mingyue's attitude had changed, Hanshuang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that in this way, he might have more opportunities to meet Mu Xize.
Although Hanshuang is Qin Mingyue's person, she fell in love with Mu Xize when she first saw him nine years ago, and she also left the purse embroidered with Ze characters he left for her to this day. Seven years ago, Ye Ningxiang, who was still a child, asked herself about the origin of this purse, and she only half-truthed that this purse was just a casual gift from a man she loved, but she hid the fact that this person was Mu Xize, the king of Ning.
She was just a maid bought back by Qin Mingyue, and she had been carefully cultivated for many years before she became Qin Mingyue's right-hand man, even surpassing Qin Xiao's status in Qin Mingyue's heart. But after all, she is still a woman, although she can't marry the man she loves as she wants, even if she can have more opportunities to see him from the side, it is also a kind of satisfaction for Frost.
