Chapter 163

Just as the women were throwing away pots and Xiaohong was in various circles, Fang Xiao took out another plate of the food that was packed from the restaurant from the Qiankun bag, filled a bowl of rice, and ate it slowly up.It seemed that she didn't need to count on the group of people outside to remember serving her food.Then, she can only be self-sufficient.

We ate and packed our things.The movement outside the door also stopped.At this time, a gentle woman's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, the princess invites you to the front hall for tea."
Fang Xiao glanced at the cage that was put aside, picked up his little bundle, opened the door, looked at the woman, and said, "Please tell the princess, I'm going to find my elder brother and younger brother, and Please, Wangfu, please return all the things I lost. Those are gifts prepared by my grandfather, master, and brothers on the mountain for my eldest brother. , I don’t want to lose any of the things I brought to the eldest brother and the others. I have to go to the prince first, so I won’t bother the concubine.

After finishing speaking, he took the burden and jumped onto the wall. After a few ups and downs, he left the palace.The guards of the palace were amazed by Fang Xiao's lightness skill, but they couldn't catch up with her.But the group of women outside, at this time, was blown up, and they talked around Mama Li, their poison has not been cured, and now, each of them has their hands scratched by myself Skin, the itching was fierce, and he couldn't suppress it no matter what.The mansion has already hired a doctor to show these women, but the doctor just shook his head, saying that he couldn't see the toxicity and couldn't cure it.And that girl Xiaohong was even more miserable. She had a rash all over her body, itching to the bone, and her face was scratched by herself.Thinking of the horrible scene, these women were overwhelmed with fright, so they could only invite the princess to talk.Unexpectedly, the antidote was not obtained, and even people ran away in the blink of an eye.

Mother Li also hated these wives for their lack of winks.The fourth young master clearly said that no one is allowed to touch the young lady's things, but these people turned a deaf ear to it.The concubine doesn't like the young lady, but to punish a little girl locked in the backyard, any method is better than their direct tearing of the face.Now it's all right, instead of embarrassing the miss, it made the palace get a reputation as a thief.The servant's hands and feet are not clean, because the master in the palace didn't manage it well.

Mama Li glared at Mama Zeng, who had made her own decision, and said, "Now I can only report to the princess first, and see how this matter can be resolved."
In the small flower hall of the palace, the princess listened to the mother-in-law's narration in a daze, and then looked at Mama Li.Mama Li nodded heavily, and Wang Hao's face changed a few times.Yi patted the table and stood up: "No, such a vicious person must not let her stay in the palace. If she is not happy and puts some poison in the meals eaten by the masters, no one will be able to detect it. The prince is really serious. , How can such a dangerous person be placed in the palace. I want to go to the prince and talk to him about the matter." The princess stood up and was about to leave, but Mama Li grabbed her.Mother Li said: "Miss has left the palace now, and she said she is going to find the elder brother and the younger brother. Isn't she a bandit girl? Where did the elder brother and younger brother come from? I think she is going to find the elder brother and the fourth young master. Elder son The master left the mansion today, and the fourth young master went to school. If she did something to the eldest son and the fourth young master, that would be the worst. I think the princess might as well follow the prince's arrangement and find a husband's house for the young lady as soon as possible. It's serious for her to marry far away."
The light in Wang Hao's eyes flickered, she really wanted to marry that girl as soon as possible, but the prince didn't let her interfere in that girl's marriage, only let her prepare the dowry.She hasn't talked to Li's mother about this yet.Now, this girl strikes so fast and her methods are so vicious, she can't stay for long.The dowry is ready.According to the standard of marrying a concubine in the mansion, she doesn't care about 5000 taels of silver.You must marry that girl before the prince notices it. In this way, even if the prince blames her, the prince can't do anything about it.

The concubine turned to ask Li's mother: "After the war, I heard that there was a very brave general, Meng Cheng, and his wife and children died at the hands of the barbarians. If he hadn't stayed at the Wanliu River, the capital would have died." It has been captured long ago. The emperor is worrying about how to reward this lord general. Why don't we give him a flower-like beauty, so that he can embrace the beauty and return home."
A smile flashed in Li's mother's eyes: "My concubine is helping you to share your worries, that is, solving a big headache for the emperor, allowing the prince to make a contribution, and allowing the young lady to find a good backer. Great news for Quan Qimei. This slave girl will go to the Meng Mansion to inquire about it."
"You need to find someone to inform Shi Ziye first, and let him go to the Guoxue Institute to pick up the fourth young master after he goes down to court, and then go back to the mansion together. Don't let those bandits block the carriage on the way." A sneer.If she wants to take advantage of the palace, it also depends on whether she, the mistress of the house, agrees.

Fang Xiao didn't know Wang Hao's calculations, she left the palace and walked on the streets of the capital, not knowing where to go for a while.The things that were brought to Big Brother Tang and the others were still left in the palace. It seemed a bit bad for her to go there empty-handed like this.Eyes watching the people coming and going on the street.Thinking about where to go.With money on her body, she can stay in a hotel, but since there are two places with free board and lodging, why would she spend that unreasonable money.

Suddenly, she remembered that Shangguan Zhiming said that Mi Qiaoqiao had opened a Qiaoqiao home-cooked restaurant on East Street.Why don't you go to her place first, maybe you can get some news.

She looked at both sides of the street, but she didn't even see a small vendor. The shops on both sides were all tall and neat buildings. The street where the palace is located should be the most prosperous street in the capital.Then you can only go into the store and find someone to ask.Seeing a rouge shop on the left, Fang Xiao turned around and stepped into the shop. There were hundreds of various rouge powders on the counter, and a little girl watching the shop was introducing rouge to the customers in the shop.Seeing Fang Xiao coming in, he glanced at her clothes, and saw that they were made of common muslin, with only a hosta on her head.No pierced ears, no earrings.There is no necklace around the neck, no bracelets on the hands.He pouted at another little girl beside him, and asked that little girl to entertain Fang Xiao.

The little girl stood up reluctantly, and made a smiling face: "What kind of gouache do you want to buy?"

"Girl, I'm here to ask for directions. May I ask how to get to East Street?" Fang Xiao saw others greet her with a smile, and knew that he was dressed like a commoner. If he was willing to smile at her, it meant that the quality of others was very good. .So, she also showed her eight teeth to make herself appear more friendly.

The little girl pouted secretly, knowing that this person would not be someone who could afford good things, so she stood at the gate, pointed to the right, and said, "Go straight along this street, the first crossroad Turn left at the intersection, then turn right at the second intersection."
"Thank you girl!" Fang Xiao nodded, picked up a box of rouge, opened it and looked at it, the color is very positive, and the fragrance is also faint, and asked: "How do you sell this?"

"This rouge should be used together with this rouge, so it's not worth buying it alone." The little girl picked up another box of gouache next to this box of rouge, and opened it for Fang Xiao to see.Fang Xiao sniffed it lightly and found that it matched very well, so he asked, "How do you sell this set of rouge?"
"This set of rouge is the best one sold in our store. All the ladies in the capital like it very much. It's a bit expensive, and the asking price is 50 taels." The little girl said with a smile.

Fang Xiao thought about it. On Earth, cosmetics are also high-consumables.She bought a bottle of lotion, but she couldn't get it for four digits.Presumably here, cosmetics will not be cheap.However, when you go to see a friend, you can't go empty-handed.So, he took out a hundred taels of silver bill from his pocket and gave it to the little girl.

Seeing that Fang Xiao didn't mention the price, the little girl paid the money directly, showing a joyful expression. Now, she has an extra income.She handed the bank note to another little girl, who carefully distinguished it, nodded at Fang Xiao and said, "Girl wait a moment. After speaking, she went to the inner room to exchange the bank note for Fang Xiao.

After a while, the little girl came out with five big silver ingots.She said embarrassingly: "We don't have 50 taels of silver notes, so we have to give the girl the silver.

Fang Xiao blinked her eyes, whether she would be missed by the thief if she carried the five big ingots out.Fortunately, she has Qiankun bag.However, you can't just put the money into the Qiankun bag in front of the little girl.I had no choice but to take the big money bag handed over by the girl, and put five silver ingots into the money bag.He left the store with two bags in his hand.Fang Xiao walked to the intersection according to the path pointed by the little girl, turned his feet, and was about to walk to the left. Suddenly, there was a commotion behind him.There is a sound of wind approaching in the back of my head.Fang Xiao changed the direction of her wrong foot and took a step to the right. A five or six-year-old child just bumped into a man in front of her.The man picked up the little boy's collar, threw the little boy out, and cursed: "Where did you come from, you little beggar, you've stained my clothes." The little boy rolled on the ground twice, raised his eyes Looking at Fang Xiao, I don't understand how I bumped into someone else when I bumped into this girl.Just when the little boy didn't understand the situation, someone from behind shouted and ran towards this side: "Don't let that little bastard get away, he stole my money bag."
The little beggar rolled his eyes and said: "Sister, let's run separately and meet up at the old place!" He jumped up and separated the crowd, and ran away.And the man behind had already chased after him at this time. He held a thick stick and held it in front of Fang Xiao. If you return the money bag in your hand to me, I will spare your life, otherwise, don’t blame me for not being sympathetic to you.”
