There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 181 Hey!Little fairy purple evildoer, please show your real body!
After Su Xian left the Yamen, he did not rush back to Jiaolou Street, but went outside the city.

The more than [-] palace objects rewarded by Princess Lanling have not yet been transported, and they have been divided into five batches. The first two batches have arrived at Jiaolou Street, and the other three batches have just arrived outside the city.

Logically speaking, it was getting late at this time, so the city gate should be closed and no one should be allowed in or out.

But Su Xian and the guards carrying the goods got the princess's token and ordered the city guards to open the city gate...

……

Corner Tower Street.

the end of the street.

In front of Su Xian's house, the lights are brightly lit.

The guardsmen in bright armor were unloading wooden boxes from the carriage and carrying them to Su Xian's home, like ants moving.

These are the first two batches of palace objects that arrived. There are more than forty items in total. After opening the wooden boxes, the items taken out vary from big to small, but they are all extremely valuable and beautiful.

Among them is a large piece, which is as tall as a person. It is made of a wooden board with dozens of bronze mirrors inlaid on it. When combined together, it becomes a "half-length mirror".

The bronze mirrors used by women nowadays are as small as a fist and no larger than a woman's face. If you want to see your upper body in the bronze mirror, it is almost impossible.

But this "half-length mirror" did it.

It can reflect a woman's entire upper body...it's really extremely rare!
This "bust mirror" and other palace objects were all placed in the main room facing the street according to Su Xian's prior instructions.

In this way, the risk of Xiaoxian Zi being discovered can be minimized.

But Xiao Xian Zi is a restless person.

She was already extremely bored, and now that she had such an opportunity, she would definitely come out and take a peek.

No, at the stairway on the second floor, the three masters and servants, Xiaoxian Zi, Jian'er, and Bi'er, squatted behind the solid wood railings and secretly poked their heads out to look into the main room below.

The three masters and servants were sneaky and tiptoeing, without any appearance.

Not only do they secretly watch the fun, but they also act as "commentators".

As one palace object after another was taken out of the wooden box, after they saw it clearly, they would make some comments, almost all of which were negative.

Just listen to Xiaoxian Zi whisper:

"Is this a candlestick? It's so crude that you have the nerve to show it out and look embarrassed!"

"Is that a washbasin? It looks like it's made of fine copper, but it's too plain and has no pattern at all... I think it can only be used as a foot basin at most."

"That's... a chamber pot? Hey! Although it looks beautiful, but... the people in Daliang are too disgusting..."

"And that set of dishes, cups and plates, they're not white enough, and the glaze on them isn't pure enough. It's really ugly!"

"Is that porcelain? It looks like an earthen pot made of mud!"

"..."

Xiao Xian Zi, as the "lead reviewer", disparaged the artifacts rewarded by Princess Lanling for a while. Jian'er and Bi'er, as the "deputy reviewers", their role was to echo Xiao Xian Zi's comments and share the same hatred.

"The pickled things! They are all pickled things! It's just staining my eyes!" Xiaoxian Zi shook his head with a satisfied look on his face.

"Yes, these things are placed in our Nanchen. They are all things that servants can use!" Jian'er agreed.

"But that bitch Lanling actually regards these things as treasures..." Bi'er also agreed.

"..."

Xiaoxian Zi was very satisfied. She retracted her slightly stiff neck and squatted on the ground to make the final summary:

"The Daliang royal family is just like that, but the things that bitch Lanling uses every day are so crude, eh!"

"Miss is right!" Jian'er also retracted his neck.

Among the three, only Bi'er poked her head out to monitor the main room on the first floor.

Suddenly, Bi'er said in a strange tone:

"Miss, miss, bronze mirror..."

"Bronze mirror?"

Xiaoxian Zi looked nonchalant and disdainful, rubbing her swan-like neck and slowly said: "Daliang's mirror is probably just average, not as good as my Nanchen's bronze mirror."

"Right!" Jian'er echoed.

"No, miss, the bronze mirror this time is a little different, it's so big!" Bi'er kept her head in a prying posture, with a hint of "exclamation" in her tone.

Xiao Xian Zi heard it.

Her picturesque eyebrows frowned slightly, and those who didn't believe in evil looked down.

I saw a wooden board as tall as a person placed in the middle of the main room. Dozens of bronze mirrors were inlaid on the upper part. Combined together, the mirror surface is big enough to illuminate the upper body of a person!
Can the bronze mirror still be used like this?Why didn't I think of this before... Xiaoxian Zi's delicate and beautiful face froze with contempt and ridicule.

Her eyesight was excellent, and she could see some details of the "half-length mirror" clearly from such a distance.

The wooden board that is as tall as a person has a support frame behind it. There seems to be a machine expansion on the support frame, which can make the half-length mirror flip up and down.

In addition, there are dozens of bronze mirrors inlaid on wooden boards. Each small piece is square. Although there is a small black line between each other, it is not affected at all.

Also, from her perspective, she could clearly see several guards in bright armor appearing in the half-length mirror, with the wall of the main room in the background...

The most important thing is that the entire mirror surface has no distortion and is very smooth!

rare!

Boutique!

This thing is really rare!
Xiaoxian Zi's bright eyes had already widened, with shock flashing across her eyes, and a strong desire to "take the half-length mirror as her own" emerged in her heart.

The mirror was a very important tool for ancient women.

You cannot do without it when applying makeup, nor can you appreciate your own beauty without it. It can be said that without a mirror, almost no beauty-loving woman in the world would be able to live.

As for the half-length mirror now, it is enough to reflect the upper body of the mirror, and it has successfully captured Xiaoxian Zi's heart, and this capture is a willing one, in the form of taking the initiative to move up.

"Miss?"

On the side, Jian'er gently tugged on Xiaoxian Zi's sleeve.

In Jian'er's opinion, although this half-length mirror is good, it is not as important as the sword in her hand. Moreover, she still firmly stands on the position of "having no hesitation in disparaging everything about the Liang Dynasty" and has not wavered.

"Um……"

Xiaoxian Zi responded, but her body did not move. She stared at the half-length mirror without blinking, almost crazy.

Bi'er also had the same expression.

Jian'er didn't understand it very well, so she didn't understand it, and took the initiative to accept the role of "chief critic", and derogatoryly said in a condescending tone:
"Bronze mirror? You actually made so many mirrors and inlaid them on the wooden board. Isn't that just nonsense! It's so ugly!"

"..."

The voice fell.

Xiaoxian Zi and Bi'er both turned their heads and stared at her with displeasure on their faces.

Jian'er was stunned and scratched his head, wondering what was going on. Why did the young lady and Bi'er suddenly change their gender?
"uh-huh."

Bi'er came out to smooth things over:
"This mirror is somewhat interesting. It seems that although the taste of the Daliang royal family is not very good, they can occasionally produce one or two exquisite pieces."

Xiaoxian Zi nodded slowly, and said: "That's right, no matter how cheap Lanling's lowly woman is, she is still a princess, and she still has some talents under her command."

The implication is that this half-length mirror is attributed to the craftsmen of Princess Lanling and has nothing to do with Princess Lanling herself.

Before Jian'er could react, he kept scratching his head with his eyes wide open.

After Bi'er observed her young lady's words and expressions, she continued:

"This mirror is barely worthy of the status of a young lady!"

"We have moved into Mr. Su's house for a few days. We pay hundreds of taels for the house every day, as well as daily food, wine, food, etc..."

"So, if Mr. Su insists on giving this mirror to the lady, it is not impossible for the lady to accept it."

"..."

Xiaoxian Zi nodded slowly when he heard this and cast an approving look at Bi'er.

Then he continued to stare closely at the mirror in the main room, his eyes shining with longing.

Jian'er secretly hissed and finally understood...

As time passed, the first two batches of goods were finally moved and unpacked.

Because of the half-length mirror, the "chief critic" and "sub-critic" who were peeping on the second floor finally calmed down and just watched silently.

Suddenly, under the eyes of the three masters and servants, the soldiers responsible for moving and unpacking picked up an object nearby, turned around and walked out of the house.

The half-length mirror that Xiao Xianzi took a fancy to and planned to keep as his own was also carried outside the door by two personal guards.

"What are they doing?" Xiao Xianzi was stunned and turned around to ask the two maids.

"I don't know." The maids shook their heads in unison.

"Send someone down to ask, but don't break my mirror." Xiao Xianzi immediately ordered.

"Yes!"

"..."

Soon, a boy came downstairs.

At this time, the half-length mirror had been carried out of the door and disappeared from Xiaoxian Zi's sight, and she couldn't help but feel anxious secretly.

After a while, the boy stomped up the stairs and gasped:
"Those personal guards said that the mirror and other items were gifts from Mrs. Su to Mrs. Liu next door. Mr. Su had clearly ordered them to be delivered after unpacking."

"What did you say!" Xiao Xianzi raised her two picturesque eyebrows and asked in a more serious tone:
"To the Widow Liu next door?"

"Yes!"

"..."

After Xiaoxian Zi moved into Su Xian's house, she was not isolated from the world. She actually knew the situation outside well because the servants went out to buy groceries every day.

Widow Liu next door, she has long known that there is such a person.

But I have never heard of anything between Su Xian and Widow Liu...

It was also two days ago that Xiaoxian Zi learned about the relationship between Su Xian and her through the mouth of a servant.

When Xiaoxian Zifa was stunned, the boy said again:

"Oh, by the way, the guards also said that it was one of the betrothal gifts Mr. Su gave to Mrs. Liu!"

bride price……

Xiaoxian Zi twitched the corner of her mouth. The half-length mirror she was interested in was actually given by Su Xian to Widow Liu next door, and it was in the name of a betrothal gift...

Knowing that this matter was irreversible, her delicate and pretty face suddenly turned ugly and turned green. In her long sleeves, her two small pink fists were tightly clenched.

"Miss……"

"I'm fine, go back to your room."

Xiaoxian Zi returned to the room with a bad look on her face.

After the two maids followed in, the door was slammed with force.

……

……

The next three batches of goods finally arrived at Jiaolou Street.

Su Xian also followed the convoy back.

He was thirsty and hungry now. When he received the goods in the camp in the afternoon, it was already getting late. Since then, he had been arranging transportation and had not bothered to eat.

After returning to the city, although he went to the Yamen to visit Tang Ju, the Tang family had already finished dinner and Su Xian didn't mention it.

Now, it's finally time to go home.

According to past habits, Xiao Xian Zi would instruct the servants to prepare a large table of fine wine and delicacies... He was going to have a feast this time!
Arrived.

The wooden boxes were moved one by one from the carriage into the main room facing the street. After unpacking was completed, Su Xian asked the guards to remove all the wooden boxes...

After finishing his work, Su Xian looked back at Yang Zhilan, who had been with him ever since he returned home, and smiled:

"We're hungry, let's go upstairs to the study to eat."

Yang Zhilan opened her mouth and finally said:

"Tonight...there will be no food."

"No food?"

Su Xian's smiling expression froze in an instant, and the two hands that were rubbing each other stopped, and he asked in surprise: "Miss Xiao Xian Zi didn't prepare any food or wine? You shouldn't!"

Yang Zhilan's face was expressionless and she didn't respond at all, because she didn't know what was going on.

Su Xian thought for a while, waved his hand to summon a boy, and ordered:
"Go to the largest restaurant in the city to pack a meal and come back. I want ten dishes, so go quickly!"

The boy laughed and said:
"Young master will go right away, but...please ask the young master to withdraw some silver."

"You want more money?!" Su Xian suddenly felt pain in his face. He had hardly spent a single coin since Xiao Xian Zi moved into his house.

"Yes, what the lady just ordered..."

"That's all." Su Xian looked at Yang Zhilan and ordered, "Give it to him."

"..."

The boy took the banknote and quickly went out.

Su Xian washed his face and went upstairs to the study to drink tea and wait.

There is no one in the study, Xiaoxian Zi is not there.

Strange, what happened to Xiao Xian Zi today?It was a bit unusual. He neither prepared any food or drinks, nor waited for me to come home in the study room... Su Xian looked extremely suspicious.

Suddenly, he looked astonished and thought to himself: "Yes, women, there are always a few days in every month..."

……

After a short wait, the food and drinks were delivered.

Ten dishes were placed on the table, all delicious and delicious. Su Xian couldn't help but move his index finger.

He did not start eating directly, but called a maid and ordered:
"Go and invite your lady out."

The maid has gone.

Su Xian began to eat and drink... After working hard for a whole day, it feels so good to finally be able to let go of his hands and feet and eat heartily!
After a while, the maid returned and said:
"The young lady said she doesn't feel well today and won't go out. Please eat by yourself."

"..."

I went, and I really guessed it... Su Xian was stunned for a moment, then silently wrote down the date. This is one of that woman's weaknesses!

Normally, Su Xian would have given up and let her have a good rest if she wanted to.

But this time, Su Xian was not going to let her go, and ordered the maid:
"If you go to invite me again, tell your lady that the bet between us has come to an end!"

"If your lady doesn't want her intestines to be pierced, her face to have wrinkles and thick sores, and she doesn't want to become the ugliest woman in the world, please come out immediately!"

"Yes!"

The maid left again.

Su Xian poured a small glass of fine wine, held it in his hand and sipped it slowly, his expression was very proud and expectant, and he thought to himself:
"Xiao Xian Zi, Xiao Xian Zi, who are you? Show your true form tonight!"

"..."
