Chapter 144

Shangguan Zhiming was also very surprised by Fang Xiao's skill, and seemed to understand that the life-saving grace that his father said might be true.It's not as simple as Jingli said, this is the daughter of the outer room.With a serious look on his face, he took a step forward, cupped his hands at the man who looked like an officer, and said, "I am Shangguan Zhiming, the fourth eldest in my family. This is my father's jade pendant. You must recognize it clearly, and don't talk about us anymore." They are pretending to be relatives of the palace."
The man took the jade pendant from Shangguan Zhiming's hand suspiciously, looked through it carefully, and was a little uncertain, but Shangguan Zhiming's eyes were so clear that he didn't look like a liar.Turning to look at Fang Xiao again, he was taken aback for a moment, pointed at Fang Xiao and said, "You are General Tang's sister, right? I have seen your portrait in the hands of General Tang. The real person is much more beautiful than the portrait."
Hearing the officer's words, Fang Xiao felt a little baffled.When did she make another portrait? The key is, how can others see her own portrait.Could it be that Brother Tang and the others saw that they were single all the time and wanted to marry themselves off, so they wanted to choose a good marriage for themselves in the army.However, this doesn't make sense, even if you want to choose a good marriage for yourself, you don't need to take your portrait to the army for circulation. Looking at this person, it seems that her portrait is very popular in the army.

Seeing Fang Xiao's face of not knowing the truth, the officer chuckled, scratched his head, and said, "I heard that those telescopes, siege vehicles, and wooden armored men in the army are all out of my lady's whimsy. So, After everyone knew that General Tang had your portrait, they secretly rubbed a copy, and every time before going out to battle, they would bow to each other, so that they would come back in full. Therefore, most people in the army know you by looking at them .”
Fang Xiao was dumbfounded when he heard that, this, is it okay?She was more surprised than Shangguan Zhiming. He looked at Fang Xiao as if he was looking at a monster, and said, "It turns out that you made that telescope, how did your little brain grow out, and you can actually make it out?" There are so many things. When you go back to the palace, you have to show me all your treasures, and you are not allowed to hide them." Listening to Shangguan Zhiming's words, the words became more and more unseemly.Let him see what her baby is, and he is not allowed to hide it.Are they that familiar?

"Then can we go in?" Fang Xiao asked directly without answering the question.Because, at this time, the gazes on her from the tower became more and more eager, and someone even set up a small incense burner.

Fang Xiao just wanted to leave quickly, so he had to interrupt the officer's memory.The officer blushed, and quickly returned the jade pendant to Fang Xiao, making a gesture of invitation.But the little soldier who wanted to steal Fang Xiaoyu Pei at first hid behind the crowd.I wish everyone would forget about themselves.

Watching Fang Xiao and the two leave.The officer turned serious, looked at the little soldier hiding behind, and said with a sneer, "You don't even know about Miss Xiao, and you dare to attack her. I think you have taken the guts of a bear. Say, Which soldier are you under? Tell him to come and see me right away." The little soldier blushed and then turned pale. He is the brother of the county magistrate's concubine. It was his sister who begged the county magistrate for a long time before he got a city guard. Location.After the war, the defenders of the city were generally served by soldiers who had retired from the battlefield, and I had to go through the back door to stand here and collect some tribute money.Unexpectedly, on the third day of his errand, he made such a big mess. His brother-in-law, the county magistrate, would definitely not give his sister a good look.I'm afraid I can't keep my position.

His lips twitched a few times, but he didn't dare to confess to the county magistrate, he just lowered his head and said nothing.The officer snorted coldly, pointed to the soldiers who surrounded Fang Xiao with him just now, and said, "You guys, go with him too, go back and hand in the errands, I don't want to see you appear under my rule again." After finishing speaking, he took a serious look at several people, turned around and went up the tower again.

There was a bit of resentment in the soldier's eyes.It's not that he didn't know the young master and young lady of the palace on purpose, how could he kick himself out just because of this little thing.If he had also been on the battlefield, he would also have a copy of that portrait of Empress Xiao.The team leader must have deliberately not shown the portrait of Empress Xiao to his group.It was because these people were all following him.The more I think about it, the deeper the resentment in my heart.He stood on his post again, and the checks on those who entered the city became stricter.Anyway, after today, he won't be able to keep his errand, so he might as well find out a secret job now, so that he may be able to stay.He winked at the man following him, and checked more carefully.Not to mention, it really made them discover a person who was led by a false road.This time, the gate of the city became lively again.

But Fang Xiao and Shangguan Zhiming who entered the city did not know what happened next.Fang Xiao and Shangguan Zhiming wandered around the city.Since he didn't know which city it was, after entering the city, Fang Xiao picked up a little boy on the side of the road, bought a bunch of gourds for him, and asked about the situation here.

Shangguan Mingzhi knew where they were when he heard that the city was called Changzhou City.He dragged Fang Xiao to the largest restaurant in Changzhou City, and ordered a table of delicacies.Fang Xiao watched the delicacies being served plate after plate, and asked with a frown, "I ordered so much, can you eat it?" Shangguan Zhiming picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.He said vaguely, "It's the top cow, I can eat it up."
Thinking of this guy, he has been hungry for two days, and he can't eat like this, otherwise, they will definitely not be able to leave Changzhou City tomorrow.So, he stopped Shangguan Zhiming's hand stretching out to the pig's trotters, and said, "If you don't eat for a long time, if you eat so much at once, you will suffer from indigestion, and I'm afraid you'll get vomiting and diarrhea. It's better to eat less of these greasy things. Drink some of this first." A light appetizer soup, and some less oily dishes."
"You know what, you should eat meat when you are hungry, and drink in a big bowl when you are thirsty." Shangguan Zhiming didn't compete with Fang Xiao for pig's trotters, but stretched his chopsticks towards the roast chicken, and picked up a big chicken leg, I put it in my own bowl, and then I felt relieved, and then said: "These are what the father said. Men should be informal. Do you eat pig's trotters? If you don't eat, don't occupy the plate and don't let go."
Seeing that Fang Xiao didn't eat the trotters, Shangguan Zhiming was a little unhappy.

Fang Xiao ignored him, and pulled some greasy food from the side leaning on Shangguan Zhiming to his side, saying: "You have money to pay for the table, and I will put these dishes in front of you. No Naturally, you have to listen to me, and I can eat whatever I say." But she was muttering in her heart, a stewed pig's trotter had to be handed over, making it impossible for her to connect the name of the dish with the real thing stand up.She listened to the names of the dishes and thought they were light and refreshing snacks. Unexpectedly, the owner of this hotel is so honest that every plate is served in sea bowls. Fortunately, the area of ​​this round table is large enough, otherwise, all these dishes would have to be eaten. Put it on the ground.

Shangguan Zhiming was not happy anymore. Of course he knew that he had no money with him now, but it was only for now. He had already said that he would return the money immediately after returning to the palace.But she still used money to talk about things, so that she could see that she couldn't eat.Isn't this greedy?

Shangguan Zhiming rolled his eyes and raised his hand to call Xiao Er.Fang Xiao said softly: "I only pay for the food on the table now, if you order again, you will pay for it yourself." Shangguan Zhiming immediately withered, and he put down his raised hand embarrassingly.Unexpectedly, Xiaoer's eyes were sharp, when he saw a Shangguan raised his hand, he immediately stepped forward to inquire.Shangguan Zhiming shook his hands angrily, and said, "My hands are sore, can't I stretch it out?" The shop waiter knew that he had made a mistake, so he quickly put on a smile and said, "Yes, yes, I will do whatever I say. "Turning around and about to retreat, Fang Xiao stopped Xiao Er and said, "Where is the best medicine shop in the city?"

"You really want to hire a doctor for me, I'm fine now!" Shangguan Zhiming didn't want to be laughed at by others because he ate too much, and his image as a prince in the palace would be completely ruined.So, he eagerly interrupted Fang Xiao's questioning.

"I want to grab some medicines, why are you nervous?" Fang Xiao thought it was funny.Turning to look at Xiao Er.Xiao Er smiled and pointed to the direction of the door, and said: "Miss, go out and go straight ahead. At the intersection, there is a Changji drug store. That is the best drug store in Changzhou."
"Okay, thank you, little brother, please pay the bill. By the way, pack the twenty dishes here." Fang Yi pointed to the untouched dishes in front of him.The second brother nodded repeatedly.Shangguan Zhiming gulped down the few dishes in front of him as if venting, but there was no money in the bag, and he had no confidence to speak, so he could eat with his head down and eat hard.

The second brother brought three big food boxes, looked at Fang Xiao, and said, "Guest officer, there are 48 taels of silver in total. Three taels of silver are from the food boxes and the dishes." Fang Xiao pointed to two of the food boxes Said: "Pour out the oily paper bags for the vegetables in these two, and put them into a food box."
The waiter said with some embarrassment: "In this case, the soup of the dishes can only be omitted. Without the soup to soak, the taste will definitely be much worse. At that time, if the customers eat something that doesn't suit their taste, it will smash the signboard of the restaurant." gone."
Fang Xiao waved his hand and said, just keep one food box, and you only need to pay for one food box.Don't worry about the rest. "Xiao Er pouted, and took out a lot of them. I really don't know what this guest thinks if he insists on worrying about such a small amount of money. Fang Xiao took out a roll of food bags, and put the same vegetables into the bag. Then put it in the food box. Unexpectedly, none of the bowls are useless, and no soup has flowed out. Shangguan Zhiming was surprised, and immediately didn't care about eating. He turned to Fang Xiao, reached out and took out the roll of food bags , transparent, thinner than paper, unbelievably soft, filled with soup, but it can be drip-tight, it is amazing.

Fang Xiao knew that Shangguan Zhiming was curious, so she pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Eat first, let's talk about other things later." Shangguan Zhiming also looked at the other tables and saw that no one noticed them, so he sat down again Returning to the table, he ate absent-mindedly.When Xiaoer gave Fang Xiao the rest of the money, and saw that there were only plates left on the table, but all the dishes were gone, although he was surprised, he didn't ask with a wink.He just sent Fang Xiao and Shangguan Zhiming away with a smile.

Shangguan Zhiming resisted the urge to hold Fang Xiao, and followed Fang Xiao to Changji Pharmacy.I saw Fang Xiao asked for paper from the store, and with a swipe of a pen, wrote down a list of medicine names, and asked the little guy in the store to grab a few large packages of medicine.Only then did the two walk slowly towards the largest inn in the city.

Asked for two upper rooms.Just as Fang Xiao sat down in the room, Shangguan Zhiming couldn't wait to appear opposite her, looking at her eagerly.
