Volume 2 The World Is So Big I Want to See Chapter 72 Bad News

"In this way, my sister has been staying in Chang'an all these years?" Mrs. Xu smiled slightly, and added a cup of osmanthus brew to the bewitching woman in front of her.

The bewitching woman greedily took a sip of the wine, picked up the wine glass and prepared to drink it all again, but stopped after thinking about it, only took a slight sip, and then sighed comfortably, and then waved her hand a little casually and said: "Although we haven't seen each other for many years, after all, we are sisters who grew up together, and you don't want to see each other, Sister Gao, just call me osmanthus as before." As he spoke, he paused and looked around and said with a sigh: "I used to count the eldest sister herself, but I didn't expect that the eldest sister would be able to earn such a big family business in Luoyang." ”

Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment in a trance, and then smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said, "It's been a long time since I've heard someone call me that, since I married into the Xu family...... It has been nearly 20 years old. After saying this, the gaze of the enchanting woman named Osmanthus in front of him has softened a lot, and the trace of vigilance hidden in the depths has also faded a lot.

This woman is the one who entered Chang'an with Li Qing.

The woman's posture is only in the middle and upper, about her early thirties, but her figure is excellent, and the maintenance is excellent, and there is a familiar charm between Gu Pan, coupled with a straightforward and unpretentious temperament, not to say that ordinary men, that is, many Huaichun girls have to be heartbroken when they see it, so at this time, the woman who leans on the window railing in the spring restaurant is very eye-catching, and there are a few passers-by who are hiding from the rain in Yihong on the opposite side are just a casual glance but they can't take their eyes off.

The woman stretched out her legs casually, her posture was quite indecent but she didn't care, and said: "Actually, I haven't stayed in Chang'an all the time, and eating our bowl of rice is also a hard chore. Only then did he go back to Chang'an and rest for a few days, he was sent here, but fortunately, if he didn't come back for so many years, he could be regarded as returning to his hometown, so he should get off this errand. Where is the eldest sister you are so chic, this osmanthus brew is very expensive in Chang'an, and I can't afford to drink the money I have. ”

Mrs. Xu shook her head slightly, added new wine again and said: "Where is chic, it's just that you don't have to worry about food and clothing, in fact, I envy you to walk around, that's really leisure." He sighed regretfully and said, "Sister..... It would be nice if you had come earlier, those good wines that are older have been emptied a few days ago, and I knew how many jars I should have left. ”

The woman hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's good to have something to drink, and it's a life of running around and toiling, where do you ask for so much." ”

Mrs. Xu chuckled and said, "I never thought that the little girl who was a little stupid at the beginning would now become a hero in a thousand glasses of wine." ”

The woman glanced at the empty row of wine jars beside her, smiled a little awkwardly, and then said, "It's all brought by the stuffy gourd in my family, and I didn't drink alcohol before." ”

Mrs. Xu thought of the honest man guarding the door, nodded thoughtfully, but asked casually: "It seems that he is a reliable man, but he has been hearing you say that he is a hard worker, but I don't know what you usually do?"

The woman was slightly stunned, but she hesitated for a moment before saying: "Actually, it's not a big deal, both of us are embroiderers, but we are usually active in the big week, this time I don't know why we were sent to Luoyang, as for what we want to do, my sister still inquired, anyway, it's not a bad thing." ”

Mrs. Xu's heart sank when she heard the words "embroidered clothes", but her expression on her face did not change at all, and she casually joked a few words as if she didn't care. It's just that in my heart, I still can't help but secretly guess, and my heart says how this "Jinyifang" came to Luoyang.

The names "Jinyifang" and "Embroidery Clothes" may mislead uninformed people to think that Xu is a weaving workshop. In fact, it is a semi-public special institution that Da Zhou is extremely famous for.

"Embroidered clothes" takes the meaning of spying and sewing, and it is an intelligence agency established after the Holy Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty took power, and it belongs directly to the Holy Queen. Although it is an intelligence organization, it is not actually hidden in the shadows, and it is not an organization set up by Zhou Hou for the purpose of arbitrariness, but for the stability of the Great Zhou, and an organization established to deal with various emergencies and abnormal events. To put it bluntly, most of the time they deal with special events that are difficult for ordinary officials to handle, and most of them deal with demons. Because most of the things dealt with are extremely complex and tricky, so the embroidery makes the right to make decisions on the spot, and the authority is great, so the employment standards are also extremely harsh, whether it is ability or temperament must go through layers of screening, but also after each action will be targeted and detailed investigation, in order to prevent the occurrence of indiscriminate killing of innocents. Therefore, the "Brocade Workshop" is extremely efficient, and almost never makes mistakes, this high efficiency has also made it famous all over the world, and the "Brocade Workshop Owner" who has trained so many excellent "embroidery clothes" but no one has ever seen it has become one of the world's recognized powerhouses.

"If you think about it, it is somewhat similar to the former Jiaofang Division, but it's a pity that ......" The strange thought in Mrs. Xu's mind flashed away, but she opened her mouth and diverted the topic and said: "I didn't expect that you had such an errand with Osmanthus, and you must have suffered a lot, and when you get to the eldest sister, you must enjoy the blessings, but if you have anything to eat and drink, just ask." Said with a narrow smile and said: "Don't look at you with a mouthful of a stuffy gourd, the eldest sister is a person who has come over, presumably my sister doesn't know how precious it is in her heart, I see that your mouth is going to smile crookedly when you mention your own man." ”

The woman hurriedly touched her face, and said in her heart that it was so obvious. But he glanced at him slightly and said, "Look at what you said, sister, that fool is just more obedient and stronger, and other aspects are really unusual." ”

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she sighed a little helplessly, and glanced at the woman with resentment.

The woman was a little inexplicable, and only then did she realize that it seemed a little inappropriate to have a "strong physique" in front of this sister who had been widowed for many years, so she could only cough awkwardly and smile "haha", forcibly changed the topic, turned her head to look at the window and said helplessly: "This rain is really annoying, it keeps raining, and the plans to go shopping have been interrupted." It's just that I didn't expect that as soon as the words came out, a thunderbolt flashed, and the originally heavy rain slowly became smaller, and the originally gloomy sky finally began to slowly clear.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xu "giggled" and said with a pretended resentment: "Looking at your ripe appearance, I think it must be a lot of 'rain and rain', how do you know that I am already dry here, look, I am afraid that God can't see it, and there is a thunderclap." ”

Although the woman said that she was straightforward, she was still a little unbearable to be teased like this, and she couldn't help but blush, and just wanted to say something, she heard Mrs. Xu smile and say again: "Look at your appearance, but I can vaguely see the shadow of my childhood." I won't make fun of you, it's just about to be sunny, why don't I do my best to be a landlord, take you around this Luoyang City, see what has changed, and buy a few beautiful clothes, with my sister's style, I will definitely be able to make your men's eyes straight. So saying, he took the woman's arm lightly and got up.

Just before he could get up completely, a small guy broke in in a panic, and knelt on the ground with a pale "plop".

Mrs. Xu said with displeasure on her face: "Didn't you say that you should be more steady, what are you doing with this panicked look, get up and speak." ”

The little guy didn't get up, but said in a choked voice: "Master, something is wrong, just send someone from General Han's Mansion to spread the word, and he ...... He was seriously injured in an attack on the road....."

Mrs. Xu was slightly stunned, and only then took a few steps forward and picked up the little guy who was kneeling on the ground, and asked back in disbelief: "What did you say? Say it again?"

The little girl was pulled by Mrs. Xu's neck, and she only felt that she had difficulty breathing, but she still managed to squeeze out a few words and said, "Childe...... Seriously injured...... Has been treated...... Lives are safe......"

Mrs. Xu let go of the collar of the little maid and muttered to herself a little dazedly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

The little guy coughed a few times, but he still choked up and hesitated and said, "Although my life is safe, it's just ......."

Mrs. Xu frowned, and roared, "Say!"

"It's just, Childe, he ...... The hand that made the sword was cut off!"

Mrs. Xu's brain "buzzed", only to feel that the world was spinning, and her whole body was weak, so she fell backwards and sat down. Fortunately, Osmanthus was quick and held Mrs. Xu, but looking at Mrs. Xu's sluggish appearance, she couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, and then silently wiped her heart between Mrs. Xu's eyebrows. Mrs. Xu woke up in a trance, but she still said in disbelief: "The hand is broken? Qinghui likes to practice swords the most, how can it be broken? Who is it?"

The little guy still continued: "According to the Han Mansion, it may be that the young master was protecting Miss Sima and was injured, but Miss Sima is missing, and the little one has already sent someone to Sima's house to inquire, and there will be news back soon." ”

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she finally got up and glared at the little girl fiercely, with a trace of clarity brought by the osmanthus just now, but she forcibly suppressed her anger, and she had already thought a lot in an instant. "I have never set up an enemy, if it is really as said over there, I am afraid that the real target is the Sima family, and Qinghui is just a pond fish that has been affected......? It would be useless to go at this time" Thinking about finally making a decision, he suppressed the idea of rushing to visit Xu Qinghui.

He took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid it's not okay to send someone to ask, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Sima's house in person." ”
