Leng Wang Yu's Wife: The Concubine of the Black Belly

Chapter 125 Rouge Ointment
Both Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu fell into heavy thoughts, after a while Bai Xiu said: "Why don't we ask the emperor."

After much deliberation, Bai Xiu felt that since he couldn't ask Sheng Wanyu face to face, he should ask Su Changmo.

Their husband and wife are deeply in love, and Sheng Wanyu has also been married to Su Changmo for a while, maybe asking Su Changmo will also have results.

"You can try it, but I'm afraid the emperor doesn't know much about it." Rong Ziqing was right.

Although Sheng Wanyu was married to Su Changmo for a long time, they were also a couple in name before.Besides, even though the two of them are playing harmoniously now, it doesn't mean that Su Changmo can know all the trivial things about Sheng Wanyu.

But now, since there is no other way, it can only try this way.

"Let's ask, it's better than doing nothing." Bai Xiu felt that he still had to try, even if it didn't work.

"En." Rong Ziqing agreed to ask Su Changmo.

Probably because the two of them had been in deep thought for too long, the two women who spoke before were no longer in the Ningxiang Pavilion.

Rong Ziqing went to the clerk and asked, "Where are the two ladies just now?"

Bai Xiu also walked over, only to find that the two ladies had already left.

It should be when they were thinking about how to ask, they left unknowingly.

"Master Rong, Lord Bai, those two ladies just bought a few boxes of rouge and ointment and left."

Because the two of them have often come to Ningxiang Pavilion recently, the staff can clearly identify the two of them.

He told them about the woman's departure just now.

"What did they buy?" Bai Xiu asked the man, he wanted to know what the two of them bought.

The guy took them all to the shelf, pointed to the rouge on it and said, "They bought a few boxes of this rouge."

Rong Ziqing took a box of rouge, opened it and smelled it.Men don't know much about rouge, but the color is very bright.

And it looks smoother, women should like this kind of rouge.

"How much did they buy?" Rong Ziqing asked the buddy.

"Master Rong, they each bought two boxes." The clerk said to Rong Ziqing.

two boxes?That's not a lot, but the price is a lot.

"Do they come here often recently?" Bai Xiu asked the buddy.

"Yes, Lord Bai, they come here every day recently." The clerk answered Bai Xiu tirelessly.

"Do you buy these every time?" Rong Ziqing asked the buddy again.

"No, they buy something different each time," the man replied.

"Then what kind did you buy last time?" Bai Xiu asked.

The guy pointed to the kind of rouge next to it and said, "They bought these yesterday."

It was all rouge, Rong Ziqing didn't think there was any problem.

There doesn't seem to be anything strange about buying a different variety every time, and it's normal to want to try a new variety and not stick to one.

It's just that they come every day, which seems a little strange.

"Did the two of them buy the same one?" Bai Xiu asked the buddy, hoping to know the answer.

"Yes, Lord Bai." The man said again.

Why did they both buy the same rouge, which made Bai Xiu ask again: "Do they both buy the same rouge every day?"

"Yes, Lord Bai." The man replied.

"Lord Rong, Lord Bai, I looked at the two of them. They are very good friends, so they like to buy the same thing when they buy anything. One woman said it was easy to use, so the other followed suit. It worked well later on. Then I bought it with another woman."

Guys think it's normal, because many government women like to buy things that others have tried.Because others have used it, they will feel more at ease.

And this rouge is applied to the face every day. Women love beauty and care about their appearance.So they will like the rouge that everyone says is good.

Since the other woman is my friend and said that this rouge is good, it is normal for another person to buy the same rouge.

Those few times I came down, I felt good, so I followed the woman's advice, and it was normal to buy the exact same rouge.

It seemed that the guy's explanation was normal again, and Bai Xiu no longer had doubts about this question.

"What about the ointment? What kind of ointment did you buy?" Rong Ziqing looked at the rouge and thought there was nothing wrong with it, so he decided to check out the other ointment they bought.

The man took them to the opposite container and said to them: "Here are all the ointments. They also choose the same as the rouge. They buy different things every day. But the two ladies don't all buy the same ones. "

said the man, with some curiosity on his face.They bought the same rouge every day, but they didn't buy the same ointment every day.

Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu each took a kind of ointment, opened it and smelled it in their noses, but they still didn't think there was a problem, because they didn't understand these things.

Ask the guy to smell it and say, "Is it different from the old ones?"

"No, there are people staying in the Ningxiang Pavilion every day, even at night, so there will be no problem with the ointment." The man said.

"Who will watch every night?" Rong Ziqing asked the buddy.

Because of all the understanding they have gained, Ningxiang Pavilion will not be so peaceful.

"Every day, some guys in the Ningxiang Pavilion are guarding it, and they usually take turns." The guys seemed to be familiar with these trivial matters, so they told them.

"Take turns, who usually take turns?" Rong Ziqing asked immediately.

Because if it takes turns, if some people we don't know are mixed in, or people who are not in the Ningxiang Pavilion at all, wouldn't it be people blatantly entering the Ningxiang Pavilion and acting recklessly at night?

"Master Rong, they are usually our fellows who come to Ningxiang Pavilion every day to find jobs. We are familiar with these guys, and they have been working in Ningxiang Pavilion for not a day or two, so they are all trustworthy."

This guy seemed to be particularly concerned about whether Rong Ziqing suspected the people in the Ningxiang Pavilion, so before Rong Ziqing could express his doubts, he directly expressed the thoughts of the people in the pavilion.

"Then have you changed your buddy recently?" Bai Xiu continued to ask the buddy.

"Master Bai, I haven't changed my staff. Every staff here is personally selected by Ms. Shangguan, so those of us who are staff are not qualified to change. Even the shopkeeper here must obey Ms. Shangguan."

There seems to be no contradiction in what the guy said.

Because this Ningxiang Pavilion is in charge of Shangguan Hua, although she is not the shopkeeper on the surface, but as long as you check carefully, you will soon find that the final boss is Shangguan Hua.But maybe some people are not the clearest, because the real behind-the-scenes boss of Ningxiang Pavilion is Sheng Wanyu.

This Shangguan painting is actually the Ningxiang Pavilion managed by Sheng Wanyu.Few people know this in Ningxiang Pavilion, but the guy in front of him is one of them.

"Then has anyone suspicious appeared recently?" Bai Xiu continued to ask.

"Lord Bai, no. Recently, after that woman made trouble before, people have been paying attention to Ningxiang Pavilion. Therefore, there has been no suspicious person.

"Master Bai, the younger one is a buddy of the Ningxiang Pavilion, and has been in the Ningxiang Pavilion for a long time. Since the beginning of business in the Ningxiang Pavilion, the younger one has been working in the Ningxiang Pavilion. The younger one knows that Miss Shangguan has disappeared recently. , so I paid extra attention to all the little things in Ningxiang Pavilion, but I didn't find anything inappropriate."

Xu was afraid that Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing would not believe him, so the assistant told them the time he was working in Ningxiang Pavilion.

"You have been working in Ningxiang Pavilion for a long time, so do you know the identity of Miss Shangguan?" Rong Ziqing felt that he could ask this guy to see how much he knew.

"I know that Ms. Shangguan is in charge of the Ningxiang Pavilion. However, she is not the final decision-maker. Although the personnel transfer, replacement or exchange of items in the Ningxiang Pavilion, Miss Shangguan can completely decide. But in fact, every The ointment and rouge brought by Ms. Shangguan last time were actually not developed by Ms. Shangguan herself."

This guy didn't shy away from it, and directly told Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing what he knew.

Rong Ziqing glanced at this guy, and felt that this guy was exactly what he thought, and seemed to know a lot.

"Then do you know who the real decision-maker behind this scene is?" Rong Ziqing seemed eager to hear his answer, and used it to guess how much this guy knew about the inside story.

"Lord Bai, Lord Rong, I know that you are all from the palace. I don't want to hide it, but I know that the empress is the decision maker behind this scene."

This guy really knew the inside story, he knew that the master behind the Ningxiang Pavilion was Sheng Wanyu, not Shangguan Hua who was in charge on the surface.

"You're just a little guy, how do you know about this relationship?" Bai Xiu seemed suspicious of the guy in front of him, because he was just a little guy, not even a shopkeeper.

"Master Bai, the young one has been working in Ningxiang Pavilion for a long time, and the young one also knows Miss Shangguan. Although the young one is not the shopkeeper, but just a little guy, but the young one knows as much as the shopkeeper."

"The little one used to work in the Rouge shop. Because the little one did something wrong, he was dismissed by the shopkeeper. The little one wandered in the capital for a while, and then Ningxiang Pavilion started to do business. The little one relied on his knowledge of Rouge. If you understand a little bit, come and apply.”

"At that time, Miss Shangguan saw that the young one was familiar with rouge, so she took the young one as a buddy of Ningxiang Pavilion. Because the young one was very interested in medicinal materials, she also knew that Ningxiang Pavilion sometimes sold ointments, so Every night, when I have time, I will analyze the medicinal materials, and hope to formulate a better ointment."

"One night, when the younger one was dissecting the ointment, a richly dressed woman came to the Ningxiang Pavilion. He saw that the younger one was taking apart the ointment, so he asked the younger one a few more questions. The younger one saw that she was also an expert in medicine. She is a human being, so she did not hide anything, and told the little one truthfully. Afterwards, she went to Miss Shangguan."

"In the next few days, I could still see that woman at night sometimes. She would sometimes ask me about medicinal materials, and some would also ask me about my birth background, probably because they are all people who know medicine. So Xiao Gradually, I felt that the conversation with this woman was very speculative, because I knew that Miss Shangguan knew her, so I always answered her every question."

"The little one has always been very grateful to Miss Shangguan for not disliking her being kicked out by the people from the rouge shop and willing to take the little one in and give him an errand and silver taels. Then one day, the little one was called by Miss Shangguan, and Miss Shangguan told the little one Yes, she is not the real boss of Ningxiang Pavilion."

"And the woman who often talks about medicinal materials with me is the boss, so I asked the little one if he would like to do things for them wholeheartedly? The little one didn't know what to say for a while, and then Miss Shangguan said that she knew what the little one's life was like before. In the same way, as long as the little one works hard and is faithful, from now on, the little one can live a much better life than now."

"The little one was still a little hesitant at the time. Because after researching these days, the little one found that the ointment contained bad substances, and felt that Ningxiang Pavilion was just a shop, but the people in charge were so complicated, so I felt a little worried. So the little one There is no response to Miss Shangguan."

"In the next few days, Miss Shangguan didn't look for the young one again."

The guy said a lot at once, but he didn't seem to understand why he knew so many things later.
