Chapter 153
"Ouyang Biqian... When did the concubine meet Miss Ouyang?" Zhiqu had been serving Xu Ruqing since she was a child, and she never remembered that she had contact with anyone in Ouyang's mansion.
Xu Ruqing noticed this mention, and looked through her body's memory. She didn't find the part about Ouyang Biqian, so she was sure that she didn't know this person.
Then...how could he dream of her?
"I don't know her, maybe I heard someone mention it occasionally at some point."
Zhiqu breathed a sigh of relief: "Yi Numai sees that you are too tired to have nightmares for no reason, besides, the second lady of Ouyang Mansion has been dead for many years, how could you dream of a dead person for no reason..."
As if realizing that he had said something wrong, Zhiqu quickly clapped his hands: "Bah, bah, slave is really damned, why did I mention a dead person to you so early in the morning, it's really bad luck!"
Xu Ruqing stretched out her hand to stop her movement: "What's the big deal, as for slapping your mouth, don't hurt yourself without my permission in the future, do you hear me?"
"Yes." Zhiqu apologized.
This sleep made Xu Ruqing sweat all over, time wasted and Xio didn't rest well, so she yawned uncomfortably.
Zhiqu obviously saw the tiredness on her face, and said with concern: "There is still about half an hour before dawn, Wangfei should sleep a little longer."
"No, go get some hot water, I want to take a shower." It's not comfortable to go back to sleep after sweating all over, but it would be more comfortable to take a shower.
"Yes, the servant will go here."
Zhiqu moved swiftly, and soon the hot water filled the barrel. Xu Ruqing took off her clothes and stepped in. When every pore in her body was soaked in warm liquid, she felt an unprecedented relaxation.
Closing her eyes and taking a nap, fragments of dreams would still inadvertently flash in her mind, and those originally blurred scenes became more and more clear...
"Zhiqu, what are your plans for today?"
"Well, next month is the Empress Dowager's birthday. Since it is a birthday, congratulatory gifts are indispensable. The prince told the servants to tell the princess to prepare the things to bring before the banquet." A flower basket of colorful flower petals, while picking up the petals and dropping them into the water.
The fragrance of the petals became more intense under the urging of the hot water. Xu Ruqing seemed to be in a sea of flowers, and her fair and smooth body showed a faint pink color under the soaking of the hot water.
Xu Ruqing frowned: "I remember Xuanming Xuanye was always in charge of the queen mother's birthday? Why did you let me come this time?"
Knowing the anecdotes and hearing the words, he smiled: "How can the past be compared with today's? In the past, the power of central government has been in the hands of the prince and has not been handed over. The prince is busy with official duties, especially when he encounters a war. He can't go back to the mansion for at least several months. So let the two chief guards of Xuan take care of it. But now the Zhongfu is in your hands, and having the right of Zhongfu proves that you are the mistress of the Wei Palace, and these things are of course up to you."
When Xu Ruqing heard this, she remembered that there was indeed such a thing. Last time, Su Yichen said that he would hand over Zhongfu to him, and he also took a palace seal that symbolized the rights of the mistress of the palace for his safekeeping.
Is this the legend that with great power comes great responsibility?The queen mother, the old woman, has never been seen a few times in the original impression. She has a choice phobia, and she is not good at picking gifts, especially for a person she is not familiar with. It is even more difficult.
"Princess, what are you thinking?" Zhiqu asked after not hearing an answer for a long time.
"I'm thinking about what gift to give to the Queen Mother on her birthday."
"What's there to worry about? After breakfast, I'll let the servants go out with you to the streets to have a look. The Queen Mother is a noble person, and I haven't seen any rare things. Maybe some folk gadgets will please her more. Woolen cloth."
Xu Ruqing felt that what she said was reasonable: "Okay, let's go for a walk in the street later."
After lunch, Xu Ruqing brought Zhiqu to the busiest street in Bianjing City.
After shopping for almost two hours, the queen mother didn't choose the gift, but she bought a lot of gadgets for herself and the little milk bag.In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. She hasn't done enough shopping yet, and it will be dark in a while.
"Princess, why don't we go back, it won't be too late to come back tomorrow." Zhiqu looked up at the gradually changing sky, and for some reason she was faintly worried.
It is indeed getting late, Xu Ruqing nodded: "Okay."
The two rented a carriage and sat in it with big bags and small bags, but before they could drive far, the coachman suddenly slammed on the brakes, almost throwing the two people in the carriage flying.
"Uncle, what's going on, why did Duan Duan stop?" Zhiqu asked through the curtain of the car.
"Girl, I don't want to either, but look, something seems to have happened ahead, people blocked the road, and our carriage couldn't get through." The coachman looked embarrassed.
Xu Ruqing lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside, and sure enough, she saw a lot of people surrounded in front, and she didn't know what they were all standing there looking at.
"Let's go another way."
"Girl, if you want to enter the official road, this is the only way you must go. There are other paths you can take, but the intersection is too narrow, only people can walk, and horse-drawn carriages can't pass."
Xu Ruqing frowned unconsciously as she watched the blocked crowd in front of her.
You don't have to wait until the crowd has dispersed before you can leave, it will be too late to go back.She didn't care, but when she came out, she promised that the little milk bag would go back as soon as possible, and she was afraid that the child would cry and couldn't find herself.
"Forget it, let's get out of the car and walk back." In the end, Xu Ruqing decided to walk back by foot.
It's two streets away from Wei Wang's Mansion. It's not too far away. It should take half an hour to walk.
Zhiqu nodded in agreement, Lisuo took out ten copper coins from his purse and handed them to the driver. "Just send it here, I'm sorry for your trouble."
The driver's eyes lit up suddenly when he saw the money, he nodded and bowed to take the copper coin: "No trouble no trouble, thank you two girls."
The two got out of the carriage.
"what happened?"
"I don't know, it seems to be dead."
"Dead? It won't be a girl again this time, will it?"
"Go and see if you don't know."
"Wait for me, I'll be with you."
"..."
The two master and servant stood alone on the street, and many people who noticed the movement in front of them rushed over there curiously, and they didn't apologize for accidentally bumping into Xu Ruqing.
Passing by the crowded crowd in front, they realized why there are so many people gathered here. They saw a female corpse lying quietly in the middle of the crowd. It looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but she died at a young age. One does not feel sorry.
"Look, I hit the spot, this time it's a girl again."
"You have to remind your Erni when you go back, don't run outside all the time when you have nothing to do, you don't know how many people died."
"You're right, I'll be right back."
