Rebirth of the Daughter of Allure

Chapter 256 The Mystery of Mercury
mercury?Immediately fade?
Princess Jinxiu's complexion changed, as if she had thought of something, her eyes changed slightly, and she was suddenly speechless.

Duan Qingming smiled slightly at Zhang Liang again: "Master Zhang said so, can we try it?"

Zhang Liang looked at Princess Jinxiu angrily, and said in a cold voice: "Such an obvious thing can naturally be tested, if not, someone will say that the old man is talking nonsense here."

Duan Qingming thought for a while, walked in front of Princess Jinxiu, and said softly: "Princess, may I ask you, do you want to experiment as Mr. Zhang said?"

Princess Jinxiu kept her head down, wondering what she was thinking.At this time, when she heard Duan Qingming's words, she immediately raised her head and said in a daze, "Ah... what did you say? What is the experiment?"

Duan Qingming was taken aback, and said with a smile: "It's because mercury can cause silk thread to fade. Do you want to test it on the spot and show it to the princess?"

When Princess Jinxiu heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes: "So what if the test is out? Anyway, the embroidery has been polluted. Is it possible that there is nothing you can do in your embroidery workshop? Or, do you want to rely on it?" account……"

Duan Qingming smiled slightly and said: "I don't mean to renege on the debt. It's just that this matter needs to be clarified first, and then we can think of a remedy."

When Princess Jinxiu heard this, she immediately said suspiciously: "Why, this embroidery is broken, can it be changed?"

Duan Qingming smiled lightly: "Of course it is possible. If the princess doesn't believe it, I'll show the princess instead."

After Duan Qingming finished speaking, she took Princess Jinxiu's remaining silk thread, picked up a needle, and said softly, "Princess, please take a look."

After Duan Qingming finished speaking, he picked up the embroidery thread, and lightly drew a few stitches on the place where the color changed.The original light-colored embroidery suddenly appeared other faint textures, although it was not as bright as before.However, it has a different flavor.Princess Jinxiu looked at it, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Can you really change it to my satisfaction?"

Duan Qingming smiled lightly: "It's possible if you think about it."

Princess Jinxiu seems to have something on her mind.In other words, since Zhang Liang said that mercury can wash away the color of the flowing silk, Princess Fairview's expression has become strange.It seems that there is something missing, and it seems that it is faintly disappointed.

At this time, upon hearing Duan Qingming's assurance, Princess Jinxiu nodded and said, "Well, if there is nothing else, I will show up next time, but you have to tell me first, how long will it take?" time of day."

After hearing this, Duan Qingming said without hesitation: "The princess can send someone to pick it up early in the morning the day after tomorrow."

Princess Jinxiu looked a little sad.The bossy look she gave when she entered the door has long since disappeared.Her expression was also in a hurry. At this moment, she didn't seem to be in the mood to say anything else, she just waved her hand slightly: "Okay, I need this thing urgently. You go, I will call someone here the day after tomorrow Take it."

After finishing speaking, he didn't say goodbye to anyone, just bowed his head and left in a hurry.

Together with Princess Jinxiu, the guards who were secretly hiding among the crowd also left, and the onlookers outside the house saw the troublemaker leaving, so they all went too.

After finishing speaking, Duan Qingming was a little surprised that Princess Jinxiu left so easily.Duan Qingming took a look, Princess Jinxiu's expression seemed to be off after hearing the word "mercury".From what it looked like, the embroidery might have been contaminated unintentionally, but judging by Princess Splendid's expression, it seemed that she didn't know it beforehand.It seemed that someone was behind the scenes and did something that Princess Jinxiu didn't know about, so when Zhang Liangyi reminded her, she seemed to be aware of something.So, he left in a hurry.

But no matter what, there are really countless dirty things in the palace.It just seemed that Princess Jinxiu was about to get busy.

Once Princess Fairview left, the matter was settled.Duan Qingming walked to Zhang Liang's side and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for removing the suspicion for my embroidery workshop. I would like to thank Mr. Zhang here."

Zhang Liang nodded slightly, and he said to Duan Qingming: "This is not the fault of Yazhi Embroidery Workshop, the old man will naturally not say anything about you against his conscience, so it's fine, the old man is also relieved, let's just say goodbye. "

After finishing speaking, Zhang Liang was not polite, turned around and walked towards the door.

Duan Qingming and shopkeeper Ding sent Zhang Liang to the door before turning back.

Shopkeeper Ding finally relaxed when he saw that Duan Qingming had dealt with Princess Jinxiu as soon as he stepped out.

In Yazhi Embroidery Workshop, it became quiet again, Shopkeeper Ding ordered all the apprentices to do their own work.Then, he led Duan Qingming into the back hall, seeing Duan Qingming still paying attention to the embroidery in his hand, shopkeeper Ding said with relief: "Fortunately, the lady showed up in time and settled the matter, if not If so, I really don’t know what to do.”

After hearing this, Duan Qingming smiled slightly and said, "Don't be too polite, shopkeeper. What happened today is not due to me. In the final analysis, the appearance of Mr. Zhang made things turn around."

Although, Duan Qingming was sure that something must have happened to Princess Jinxiu to be so abnormal, but these words were just guesses, but they couldn't be told to Treasurer Ding, so, Duan Qingming only smiled slightly, and said casually: "Okay, when you do business, you will always meet all kinds of different customers, and each person's requirements are also different, but fortunately, today's matter, there is no If something big happens, the shopkeeper can rest assured."

After Duan Qingming finished speaking, he put away the embroidery, and chatted with shopkeeper Ding about the usual trivial matters, and then brought the embroidery.Say goodbye to the shopkeeper and leave.

After Duan Qingming left the store, he got into the carriage and walked towards the market.

However, what Duan Qingming didn't expect was that just after she walked out of the door, there was a carriage in the distance, and it also left quietly.

A middle-aged woman was sitting in that carriage. After seeing Duan Qingming's petite figure walk out of the shop, the small window in the carriage was quietly pulled down.

Inside the carriage, came a woman's voice: "Madam, did you see that? That lady is the eldest daughter of the Duan family. What do you think of her appearance and temperament?"

Inside the carriage, an extremely cold and calm voice rang out, as if still carrying the indifference and nobility above everyone: "Is that her... On the day of the longevity, the pond is full of lotus blossoms. In this matter, in the capital, Everyone knows, what kind of outstanding character do I think I am? But it turns out that I’m just a girl’s film?”

The somewhat submissive voice suddenly laughed dryly: "Yes, the eldest lady is still young, so I really don't see anything unusual, but her wit is rare among women..."

The conversation was only halfway through, but was interrupted coldly, that cold female voice said: "Hehe, is she really witty... Then, I really want to try her wit..."

Inside the carriage, there was silence.

After a long time, a faint, cold female voice came: "Go back to the palace."

The carriage left quietly, but there was something like a haze, which seemed to sway faintly from behind the wheels, emitting an invisible light in this icy and snowy winter.

It was almost noon when Duan Qingming walked out of the embroidery workshop.She didn't take a carriage, but walked slowly on the street alone, watching the people coming and going in this bustling market through the light-colored veiled hat.

The carriage followed Duan Qingming slowly, and the carriage was driven by the oldest horse in the Duan Mansion.His eyes stared at Duan Qingming's small figure for a moment, afraid that if he blinked or lost his mind, he would lose this young master.

Duan Qingming seemed to enjoy this leisure time in winter very much, she walked forward unhurriedly, completely ignoring the people around her, coming and going in a hurry.No one will linger in this cold street.

Suddenly, beside Duan Qingming, a figure ran past quickly.With his fast footsteps, a light, cold wind brushed against Duan Qingming's cheeks.She also lifted her veil gently, revealing her perfectly lined jaw.

However, that person's footsteps were too fast after all, so fast that he knocked the thing in Duan Qingming's hand to the ground in a flash.

There was still thick snow and ice on the ground. When the man saw that he bumped into Duan Qingming, he didn't apologize, but just ran past quickly, leaving only Duan Qingming who staggered and almost fell, and her hand Things scattered all over the place.

Duan Qingming swayed, and then barely stood up straight.But the person who bumped into her had already run to the corner in front and was nowhere to be found.

The things were still scattered on the ground, but they were knocked away by the gust of wind.It was exactly the embroidery that Princess Splendid had just worn.Duan Qingming originally planned to take it back and change it.

Seeing something dropped, fortunately it wasn't broken, but it completely wiped out Duan Qingming's original interest in shopping.

Duan Qingming frowned slightly, then lowered her head, intending to pick up the thing and go back in the carriage.

However, the other hand grabbed ahead of Duan Qingming and picked up the thing. When he saw the words "Lin Yuanxian Fish Picture" on the scattered embroidery, he seemed to be slightly taken aback. Then, quickly rolled it up and handed it back to Duan Qingming's hand.

"Thank you."

Duan Qingming sincerely thanked him, but in exchange for a chuckle from the other party: "Qingming, why are you here?"

Duan Qingming raised her eyes and saw that it was Liu Yuan.He stood in the windy winter sun, looked at Duan Qingming, smiled faintly, "Qingming, long time no see."

Duan Qingming smiled slightly, but said with clear eyes: "Yeah, long time no see."

During this period of time, there was no news of Liu Yuan, and it seemed like he was not worried, but Duan Qingming knew better that today's Liu Yuan is no longer the Liu Yuan of the past. Duan Qingming is even more startled by the sensitivity of his status today.Therefore, although he knew that Liu Yuan hadn't seen him for a long time, Duan Qingming didn't bother to inquire about him.

Liu Yuan looked at Duan Qingming, the smile in the corner of his eyes was like ripples in spring, rippling briskly: "Qingming, do you believe in the words of consonance... I was actually going to find you and Yu'er, but Unexpectedly, I ran into you here."
