The mad concubine of ancient martial arts who traveled through time

Chapter 337 The Role of Body Protection

Ruan Zhuqi was stunned for a moment, but there was some envy in her eyes.It's great to love someone like this without any scruples!What matters is that the person likes himself too.But Ziying... Ruan Zhuqi thought about Ziying's expressionless face for thousands of years, and only knew how to perform tasks all day long, so she couldn't help asking Hongfeng: "Does Ziying know your heart? "

"..." Hong Feng opened her mouth and was speechless for a while.

Hong Feng urged Ruan Zhuqi with her face flushed for an hour, and Ruan Zhuqi finally got dressed properly and was ready to set off.As soon as the carriage moved, Ruan Zhuqi said with emotion: "It's the first time that I pack up and go out so quickly, Hong Feng, you must thank Ben Gong! It's all for your sake." !"

Hong Feng lowered her head, and answered bravely: "Hong Feng is very grateful to the eldest princess!"

Ruan Zhuqi nodded in satisfaction, thinking that she had fulfilled a couple of lovers, and said: "That's fine, when the two of you do something, I can make decisions for you and preside over a wedding! Anyway, now I have There is a lot of money, and there is no end to it.”

Hong Feng felt a strange feeling in his heart, and there seemed to be a slight crash on the roof of the car.

Chang'an Street is really prosperous nowadays. Ruan Zhuqi took the small silver bracelet strongly recommended by the store and looked at it under the sunlight.However, the patterns are varied and colorful, but because of the lack of royal majesty, they become lively.

"Miss, look carefully!" Seeing Ruan Zhuqi's extraordinary demeanor, the shopkeeper knew that Ruan Zhuqi was a rich owner, and immediately offered the treasure of the store, "This pair of silver bracelets is made by the best craftsman in the palace." Yes, it took seven to seven days and 49 days and nights to complete. I also invited the eminent monks in the temple to consecrate and wear them for children. In addition to blessings, they can also protect the body."

Ruan Zhuqi heard the exaggerated words, so she knew that the store wanted to raise the price, so she joked: "Since you are a craftsman in the palace, why are things made with so much effort sold to the people? Besides, the pattern on it, no matter what Ordinary, but how can there be a sense of extraordinary style in the half-divided palace?"

The shopkeeper became unhappy when he heard the words belittling his own treasure, and said: "Girl, the craftsman in the palace I'm talking about originally belonged to the Imperial Palace of Northern Qi! A group of carefully selected craftsmen specially made these accessories for Concubine Shu. If it weren't for the destruction of the Northern Qi Dynasty, these craftsmen would not have started a folk business just to make a living. I said girl, What I said is true! If you still don’t believe me, I can take you to meet the craftsman!”

Ruan Zhuqi fell silent when she heard the words. Xuan Shidu had indeed done this for her before, but she didn't pay much attention to it at the time.Looking closely at the carvings on this silver bracelet now, it's really somewhat similar to the ones I used in Northern Qi.Feeling melancholy all of a sudden, Ruan Zhuqi's complexion became uneasy.

The shopkeeper thought that Ruan Zhuqi knew she was wrong, and then said: "Girl, this pair of silver bracelets is the last pair we have consecrated here. If you want to consecrate something in the future, you will have to ask someone to buy it from Chen." The country is here!"

Ruan Zhuqi was stunned for a moment, and was about to say that it is not difficult to consecrate Buddhist temples all over the street.But after thinking about it, the fourth uncle seemed to have a decree some time ago, saying that all monks should be eliminated. "Shopkeeper, are there still monks in Chang'an City?" Ruan Zhuqi asked.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper stretched out his head and looked around the street for a while, making sure that there were no officers and soldiers, and then whispered to Ruan Zhuqi, "I saw that the girl had never been out of the house for a long time, let alone Chang'an City, the whole Northern Zhou Dynasty is now looking for a The monks can only go to the desolate wilderness! The girl didn't see it, how many monks died in the mass graves outside the city some time ago! What a sin! A sin!"

The shopkeeper looked heartbroken, and Ruan Zhuqi also felt that the order of the fourth uncle was very strange, so she couldn't help sighing: "I don't know why they offended Tianwei, and they suffered such a disaster!"

"Isn't it! But the emperor is very good except for this point!" The shopkeeper said here, and couldn't help but stick out his thumb, "If it weren't for the emperor's tax reduction, the government would have paid for it in the early years. Support us small businessmen, how can we live such a good life now! Isn’t it just driving out a few monks? In my opinion, these monks are chant scriptures in the temple all day and don’t come out to work to earn money. The one who offended the emperor!"

Ruan Zhuqi nodded, the idea of ​​this store is not unreasonable.If the monks in the Northern Zhou Dynasty could return to the secular life and return to farming, the national power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty would be even stronger.This kind of method, I am afraid that only the fourth uncle can do it!

"Girl, do you want this pair of small silver bracelets?" Seeing that Ruan Zhuqi had been talking for a long time, the shopkeeper was a little anxious.

Ruan Zhuqi calmed down, took an ingot of gold from Hongfeng and put it on the table, and said, "Wrap it in the best brocade box for me, no need for change!"

Seeing Ruan Zhuqi's attack, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, he nodded and bowed to put away the gold ingot, and wrapped the bracelet quickly and handed it to Ruan Zhuqi.Before leaving, Ruan Zhuqi said to the shopkeeper: "If the craftsman you mentioned makes something new in the future, I will send it to the Princess's mansion first, and I will definitely pay for it."

Ruan Zhuqi left under the astonished eyes of the shopkeeper, walked only a few dozen steps, turned around and couldn't find Hongfeng. "Did you go to find Ziying?" Ruan Zhuqi looked at the sky and murmured, "When I came out, the sky was clear, but now it's cloudy again. It seems that I wasted a lot of time. Really, I knew that he came out to meet his lover." Yes, I still hold on to others and won’t let them go.”

Suddenly a gust of wind blew up, and pedestrians on the street quickened their pace to rush home.Ruan Zhuqi trembled with her arms folded, she wanted to go back to the eldest princess's mansion to be warm, but she was afraid of meeting that person.Hong Feng hadn't come back yet, Ruan Zhuqi wanted to wait for her to go back to the palace together, so she had to wander around the street.

Snowflakes fell down without saying hello, Ruan Zhuqi looked up at the sky.She had always been extremely afraid of the cold, and this was the first time she stood naked in the snow.Whenever it snowed when she was a child, Ruan Zhuqi would hide under the blanket and refused to come out; in order to keep Ruan Zhuqi from being bored, Ruan Wenyong made different snow sculptures outside Ruan Zhuqi's window every night.Although Ruan Wenyong didn't say anything, Ruan Zhuqi also knew that, in order to make her smile early in the morning, sometimes Ruan Wenyong worked all night in the snow.

Later, he lived in Northern Qi, except for the first winter in Huluguang's mansion where he was frozen, every winter thereafter, because of the fire dragon in Fengyuan, it was very hot.Ruan Zhuqi was woken up by the heat every morning, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Xuan Shidu looking at her intently.If he woke up early, Xuan Shidu would have someone prepare a soup bath in the hall, make Ruan Zhuqi clean and warm, and play with her all day in the house.

Xuan Shidu... The corners of Ruan Zhuqi's eyes are a little moist, and I'm afraid that he will never feel his warm embrace again in this life.

Ruan Zhuqi closed her eyes, feeling the process of her body getting colder in the snow.I thought to myself, whether this bone-piercing cold can really go to the bone, and it's better to be cold to the heart, so that I can numb myself.Suddenly she couldn't feel the snowflakes falling on her face. Ruan Zhuqi thought she was numb from the cold, and opened her eyes, only to find that an open oil-paper umbrella blocked her sight.

Ruan Zhuqi turned her face, and at some point behind her stood the longing man, looking at her curiously.

"What a coincidence, why is An Lehou here?" Ruan Zhuqi wiped off the blooming snow, and when she looked down, she saw a brocade box in Xuan Shidu's hand that was exactly the same as her own.

"The craftsman my deceased wife loved made some new jewelry. Today, I came to buy jewelry for her. I didn't want to see the eldest princess alone in the snow. If the eldest princess is sick, I'm afraid there will be a group of innocent people in the palace." This slave is about to suffer!" Xuan Shidu said pointedly.

Ruan Zhuqi was stunned for a moment. If in the past, he would not hesitate to kill his own brother for her, but now he beat around the bush and accused her for the lives and deaths of some irrelevant people. "I will take good care of my body, and don't bother Anlehou. The innocent people that Anlehou speaks of will not be punished by me again."

Xuan Shidu nodded with satisfaction, and said: "It's a good thing for the eldest princess to correct her mistakes. It's snowing, and I think the eldest princess forgot to bring a cloak before leaving the palace. If you don't dislike it, this little minister will I borrow it from the princess for temporary use." As he spoke, Xuan Shidu held up the umbrella with one hand, put the brocade box under his arm, took off his cloak with the other hand, and waved it lightly onto Ruan Zhuqi.

Ruan Zhuqi was fascinated by watching, but Xuan Shidu's voice ruined the scenery. "Princess, help me."

Ruan Zhuqi lowered her head when she heard the words, the lace of the cloak hadn't been fastened yet, but Xuan Shidu only had one hand, so it was really difficult to help Ruan Zhuqi tie it.Ruan Zhuqi blushed, and immediately tied up the cloak herself, and whispered, "Thank you, An Lewai!"

A gust of wind blew up, rolling up snowflakes and attacking Ruan Zhuqi.Xuan Shidu subconsciously took a step forward, blocking Ruan Zhuqi behind him.Ruan Zhuqi suddenly felt her heart beating half a beat slower, and this feeling was clearly familiar.But when Ruan Zhuqi looked expectantly at Xuan Shidu, hoping to see the familiar warmth from his face, all she got was the cold gaze of a stranger.

why!If you forget everything, can you not do these misleading things at this time!My heart hurts, it really hurts.In his heart, this is something that can be done for any woman; in her heart, it is the projection of the past, which hurt her.

"Why is the princess crying?" Xuan Shidu frowned, looking at the tearful Ruan Zhuqi in front of him, hiding the hand holding the brocade box behind her, her veins showing.

"It's nothing, the wind and sand blinded my eyes. I have been out for a long time, and my fourth uncle should be punished if I go back late. An Lehou, goodbye!" Ruan Zhuqi tried not to let more tears come out, forced a smile, Turn around to prevent Xuan Shidu from seeing his reluctant expression.

"It's windy and snowy on the road, so I'll give this umbrella to Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess! The Anlehou Mansion is close to here, and I won't get in the way if I get a little bit of wind and snow." Saying this, Xuan Shidu held the umbrella handle in his hand Pass it to Ruan Zhuqi.

Ruan Zhuqi didn't look back, took the umbrella, thanked her and left quickly.
