Princess she is arrogant

Chapter 45 Beggars

Back in the backyard, Gu Bainan asked Xiaoyin to resettle Jiang Li, and hid in the dormitory by herself, thinking of various excuses and reasoning repeatedly, and finally gave up, whether she wanted to or not, she couldn't avoid Changning's birthday party .

Originally, he planned to wait for the empress's people to come to pick her up the next day, so as to find out the news, and then concentrate on waiting for the workshop to be completed, but he didn't expect that no one came to invite her into the palace all day the next day.

It doesn't look like Jun Yechen is lying, and he doesn't need to joke about this kind of thing, so all Gu Bainan can think of is that the person who wanted her to enter the palace changed his mind because of something.And the only connection she could think of was Chang Ning's birthday party.It seems that going to the banquet this time really has to cheer up.

After seven days, Gu Bainan led Xiaoyin and Jiang Li to the workshop.This was the first time she took Jiang Li out, and it was also the first time Jiang Li came out after entering Qin Palace.

In the market, Gu Bainan and Xiaoyin walked in front, and Jiang Li followed behind.He had his hands crossed in front of his chest, with a hard expression on his dark face, his gaze was always on Gu Bainan's back, his gaze was like a falcon, no matter who he looked at, it was as if he was looking at an enemy.

And Gu Bainan was born very sensitive to other people's gaze, her scalp was a little numb from Jiang Li's stare, she couldn't help turning her head: "Even if I'm good-looking, you don't have to keep staring at me like this, do you?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked away.

The three of them arrived at the workshop without a word. Although the stall owner outside saw Jiang Li and Gu Bainan together, it was very strange, but he didn't ask any more questions, and he didn't stop them, and let them in directly.

Same as last time, only Gu Bainan entered the house.

There was a bunch of gadgets in a mess on the table in the room, and the old man was sitting opposite, waiting for Gu Bainan to inspect the goods.Gu Bainan picked up those gadgets one by one and glanced at them one by one. She admitted that she was shocked, this old man's craftsmanship is really incredible.

Even with modern equipment, it is impossible to achieve such a fine level when facing a pile of wood.If it weren't for people to discover the true use of her gadgets, she really can't wait to assemble the small crossbow she designed like a pistol.

"The old man's craftsmanship is really good." She smiled, looked back from the table and looked at the old man, "How much is the total?"

The old man did not speak, but stretched out a haggard hand.That palm was covered with calluses, and it looked like he had been doing sculpture all year round, but when he looked closely, there seemed to be something covered under the calluses.

Seeing Gu Bainan staring at his palm, the old man took his hand back without a trace: "500 taels."

Gu Bainan nodded, counted five bank notes from his sleeve and handed them to him.

She didn't mean to study those calluses. In this world, who could not get over it.As long as there are no other conflicts of interest, the relationship between her and this workshop is purely between the customer and the store owner, and she will not easily let herself offend this old man. After all, maybe in the future, she will have to ask him for help.

When he came out of the house, Gu Bainan was just like Jiang Li last time, carrying a black burden on his back.As soon as she came out, she threw the burden to Jiang Li without any vigilance and asked him to carry it.

Anyway, not many people can see the clues of those things.

Jiang Li didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and just followed behind with a burden on his back, like a piece of wood.It's just that after leaving the workshop, he walked up to Gu Bainan's side, with a firm voice without any emotional fluctuations: "Do you need to clean up?"

mopping up?

isn't it?
Gu Bainan has been used to being followed since she came to this world, but she was surprised that she didn't realize it at all, but Jiang Li actually knew about it.This also proves that his skill is definitely more powerful than she imagined.

She thought for a while, and said in a low voice, "I want to know who is planning on me."

Jun Yinuo said that the people in the East Palace are eyeing her, and the invitation is Chang Ning's birthday. At this time, if they are being targeted, if they can be caught and have a look, maybe they can figure out who really wants to hit her in advance. Whoever it is, it's good to have a defense.With so many people at the banquet, she couldn't just close herself up as soon as she entered.

Jiang Li only said "You guys go first", and then slowed down.

Gu Bainan bent his lips, expressing his understanding, and walked forward as if nothing happened, while Xiaoyin was terrified at the side, not knowing whether this Jiang Li was reliable or not.

When passing through the market and passing a relatively quiet alley, Gu Bainan spotted Jiang Li's figure from the corner of his eye, stopped, and walked into the alley naturally.

As soon as she approached, Jiang Li turned sideways, exposing the person behind him.

It was a tattered beggar, the appearance of a middle-aged man, holding a broken bowl with a broken bamboo pole, unkempt and dirty, and an unacceptable sour smell on his body.

"You, you, what are you going to do?" The beggar pointed at Gu Bainan and the three of them with his dirty hands trembling.

Xiaoyin frowned, leaned close to Gu Bainan and whispered in a low voice: "Girl, Xiaoyin doesn't think there is anything special about this person, let him go quickly, lest he dirty the girl."

But Gu Bainan didn't think so.First, Jiang Li would not catch a beggar to fool her, and second, she has eyes.

Although this beggar is an ordinary beggar no matter how you look at it, when he looked at Gu Bainan, he had an extra scrutiny that normal people would not have, as if he was sizing up a prey.Moreover, although he looked very thin, only his shoulders and hands and feet were shaking, and the rest of his body was particularly stable.

If you guessed correctly, this person used force, and it wasn't that kind of three-legged cat kung fu.

Gu Bainan smiled, and looked at Jiang Li: "Did you arrest the wrong person? I think he is the only one like this, and he doesn't have much ability to steal 100 taels of silver from me."

Jiang Li looked at the beggar firmly: "No."

Gu Bainan scratched his forehead in distress, and said to the beggar with a compromised expression: "Well, let us search you. If we don't find a bank note, then we will let you go, or I will take you to the government office!"

The beggar took a few steps back in fear, still stammering: "Why, why search, search my body, body!"

His expression suddenly flickered, but the corners of Gu Bainan's lips curled up without a trace.

"Jiang Li can't be mistaken. If you don't want to be searched, you can take it out yourself. Otherwise, it will not be so simple when you get to the government office. You have to know that if you dare to steal money from King Qin's mansion, even if His Royal Highness Qin doesn't care about it, the government office will not care about it." I dare not make you feel better."
