Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 47 Find a way out for yourself!
Zhao Xi took a small sip of tea, his face was still as pale as water, but he was calculating quickly in his mind.

He Kui is Prince Zhan, and he is in charge of the decree of the East Palace. He must not be a mediocre person.

If the prince ascends the throne as the new emperor in the future, and the tide rises, He Kui will become a close minister of the emperor.

30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, why do these noble families think they can always ride on the head of the weak?

Thinking of this, Zhao Xiwei made a short "ah" sound.

This voice was cold and indifferent, with a bit of calmness. Among the voices who were busy making irresponsible remarks, it was especially hard to ignore.

Everyone frowned and looked over.

Seeing that it was Zhao Xiwei, he put on a concerned expression: "What's wrong with Miss Zhao San?"

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Pei also looked over: "But the tea is scalding?"

"It's alright." Zhao Xi shook his head with a smile, looking ignorant and innocent, "I'm just not used to drinking this tea, I'm a little choked up, the little girl is ignorant, and ask Mrs. Pei, what kind of tea is this?"

Before Mrs. Pei made a sound, Mrs. Zhao said, "This is the urgent tea from His Majesty. You just came back. It's normal if you haven't drunk it."

He turned his head and smiled at Mrs. Pei: "This child has a good heart, you must not know her in the same way."

Mrs. Pei nodded and said indifferently: "Be honest with your heart and mind, don't be like a monkey in my family, you have a lot of tricks all the time, you know how to fool around."

As he said that, he gave Zhao Xiwei a deep look.

Zhao Xiwei looked at He Manzhi, and said worriedly, "I don't think Miss He's face is very good. I must be not used to drinking this tea, right?"

He Manzhi was startled.

Zhao Xiwei smiled again and asked, "Are you okay?"

No one had ever spoken to him in such a concerned tone before.

This smile Yan Yan's appearance made He Manzhi suddenly a little flustered.

She shook her head and nodded, and said nervously, "I'm fine, no, I..."

Zhao Xiwei smiled again.

He Manzhi was startled again, and saw Zhao Xiwei's bright almond eyes, looking at herself steadily, those eyes were like a deep and calm lake, which inexplicably calmed her mind.

She suddenly came back to her senses.

Zhao Xiwei is here to relieve himself!
The terrified look immediately faded away, replaced by a calm and gentle one.

She replied "yes" in a warm voice, then showed a little bit of the shyness of a young daughter, and explained to Madam Pei: "The little girl is stupid, she has never had such good tea, so she is not used to it, I will make you laugh, Madam. ."

Fortunately, not stupid.

Zhao Xiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

Raising his eyes, he saw that Pei Zhen really squinted at himself with an intriguing look on his face.

Except for Mrs. He, everyone in the room could see that Zhao Xiwei was helping He Manzhi.

But so what.

Zhao Xiwei is a person who makes plans and then moves. Although she has the intention to help He Manzhi out of the siege, she doesn't want to put herself on the cusp of the storm, so she neither criticized anyone here, nor did she directly argue for He Manzhi.

Facing the uncertain gazes of everyone, Zhao Xiwei looked calm: "I used to drink homemade scented tea. This fine tribute tea entered my mouth, but it was a waste of good things."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Yunqian snorted: "Miss Zhao San has such good craftsmanship! You are a big benefactor to me!"

Seeing everyone's doubts, she explained with a smile: "Ladies don't know anything, this flower tea is really a good thing that is hard to find! Those Hu merchants from the Western Regions, and the envoys from the south, I don't know why recently. , They all said that they are not used to drinking our tea, but they liked the scented tea.

Lotus, roses, peony, chrysanthemum, etc., no matter what kind of flower it is, made into tea with brown sugar and honey, in their eyes, it is more valuable than the delicacies of mountains and seas.

A few days ago, my father was worried about how to solve this problem. I didn't want to meet Miss Zhao San today, but what is the benefactor? "

Mrs. Cui was very surprised: "Isn't this flower tea for the common people to drink and play? Is it really so good?"

Cui Yurong let out an "oh" and said with a smile, "Yun Qian's father is Da Honglu, and she has gained a lot of knowledge since she was a child. Since she says so, she must not be wrong."

Everyone showed an incredible look.

Especially the sisters Zhao Chengyu and Zhao Chengyan, looking at Zhao Xiwei with extremely complicated eyes.

Whether in front of the princess or in the circle of ladies, how can this girl always be flattering and flattering?
Could it be that her birthday is particularly good?
Mrs. Zhao said: "This girl in our family has a real heart and has never seen anything in the world. Miss Qiao, please stop making fun of her. If she takes it seriously, she will make a joke!"

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Chengyu quickly followed: "Our sister Wei has lived in the country for more than ten years, and she will take Miss Qiao's words seriously!"

"..."

The corners of everyone's mouth froze.

Zhao Chengyan was almost desperate in her heart, and wished she could put a cotton cloth in her mouth.

Mrs. Zhao frowned almost imperceptibly, and then smiled calmly: "Yes, our sister Wei has just returned to the house, and there are many things that need to be learned slowly."

A lady with a very rich face smiled and said: "What Yun Qian said is true, when she went out this morning, her father was still talking about this matter. If Miss Zhao San is willing to help, it is really true. The great benefactor of our Qiao family."

There was a hint of pleading in the chat and laughter.

It was Qiao Yunqian's mother.

Mrs. Zhao looked at Zhao Xiwei and said with a smile: "Master Qiao and your father are very good friends, but I have a lot of work in our house recently, so it is inconvenient to move around."

It's been inconvenient to move around in the house due to a lot of things lately. Does it mean that the Censor Station impeached his father?

Even if they are very friendly, why would they choose to avoid it at such a time?
Zhao Xiwei thought of the party struggle.

The friendship between the rich and powerful is not just as simple as feelings, but generally reflects the interests behind it.

As for the Qiao family, are they on the same line of interest as the Zhao family?

Mrs. Zhao must be inconvenient to point it out directly.

But if she doesn't point it out, she doesn't know whether she should accept this request.

In fact, considering her personal interests, she really wanted to agree.

Instead of being trapped in the inner house and competing with sisters, it is better to be self-reliant and find a way out for yourself!
It's just that he is troubled by being trapped in a deep boudoir, and Kong Youyi's skills are not able to show his talents.

If you can use the Qiao family's line, first try to make some flower tea to supply Honglu Temple, and then open up a shop, specializing in the tea business, and then you can solve the problem for the imperial court. The minister's diet, and secondly, he can make a lot of money for himself.

It's the best of both worlds.
