Chapter 187 Just to Ask

"It's just a needle prick. How can I use such a precious golden sore medicine? The golden sore medicine was specially sent by the prince when I scratched my skin last time. It is said that the golden sore medicine can be bought with a lot of money from a small border country. , why waste it for such a small injury." Xiao Changyue raised his hand and stopped Gui Momo's movement.

Gui Meme said yes, then took out the handkerchief to show Xiao Changyue exaggerated fingers, and shook his head and sighed: "Oh, the princess hurt her hand, if the prince saw it, he would feel distressed again. "

"What's the matter, the lord won't be sad because of this little thing." Having said that, Xiao Changyue still made a shy gesture.

Xiao Changyue and Gui Meme sang the double reed, which made Yun Xiaoying's face turn pale when she just entered the door, but Yun Xiaoying was not a vegetarian, so she immediately pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, "Ah, so the prince Do you still miss my sister? I heard that the prince hasn’t entered the concubine’s courtyard for several months. I thought the prince... I was thinking that one day I would have to find a chance to persuade him. If so, then I Don't worry about it any more."

Yun Xiaoying's counterattack immediately caused the smile on Xiao Changyue's face to collapse, everyone's ladylike expressions couldn't hold back, and she said coolly with the corners of her mouth: "Miss Yun is too polite. I'm sorry, Miss Yun hasn't really entered the palace yet. Miss Yun is a guest, so it's fine to call me Wangfei or sister-in-law according to the rules."

Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying's back-and-forth attacks were like a wonderful palace fight, which made Qin Luoyan who was sitting by the side dumbfounded.In her impression, these two women are not fuel-efficient lamps, even if they are bad, they are not bad on the bright side, but the two people in front of them are actually directly fighting each other.Thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that the battle between these two people in the past few months has reached a fever pitch.

Therefore, they don't even need to pretend in front of each other.

Qin Luoyan finds it funny that for a man, women are humbled and have to fight to the death just to win that man, but if a man can hover between the two of them, they are the ones who can keep it. living.

The two were bickering vigorously, but Qin Luoyan had no room to use her skills. Seeing the melon seeds beside her, she casually grabbed a handful and put it in her palm, and began to nibble unhurriedly.

After a while, Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying had already started attacking each other with their clothes, Qin Luoyan had already eaten half of the melon seeds in her hand, and there were melon seed shells all over the ground at her feet, a little messy but unscrupulous.

When Fu Zimo walked to the gate of the courtyard, he saw this weird scene, Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying were smiling with knives, and the woman with a big belly was eating melon seeds leisurely to watch the show.

The corner of his mouth raised a perfect arc unconsciously, and he asked Jin Mu beside him: "Jin Mu, you never think this woman is very interesting?"

The corner of Jinmu's mouth twitched, he is a normal man, he is not interested in a pregnant woman, do you think everyone is like you?But what was in his heart, even if he lent him 1 bear gallbladders, he would not dare to say it out loud.

"It's very interesting." Jin Mu said so boldly.

Satisfied, Fu Zimo raised his foot and walked in. He saw his maid, Jia Ding, who was about to salute, but saw him wave his hand and make a silent movement.The maids and servants immediately retreated quietly.

Yun Xiaoying and Xiao Changyue, who were quietly fighting, were a little blushing and did not notice the changes around them. Qin Luoyan turned his back to the direction of the gate of the courtyard, and did not know what happened.

Until a tall figure blocked her light, she only felt a shadow over her head, and when she looked up again, she saw Fu Zimo's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Are you satisfied with this play?" Fu Zimo asked.

"..." Qin Luoyan looked at her nose, her nose and her heart, and a melon seed got stuck in the gap between her teeth. Then, without blushing or panting, she used her fingers to pull out the melon seed in front of Fu Zimo.

Sure enough, as soon as she did this, Fu Zimo frowned and took a step back.

Fu Zimo's voice finally attracted the attention of Yun Xiaoying and Xiao Changyue. The two stopped their quarrel and ridicule at the same time, and immediately stood up and saluted Fu Zimo tenderly.

"My lord..."

"ink……"

The movements of the two were miraculously consistent, and they both wanted to lean towards Fu Zimo's side, but Fu Zimo took a step back without any trace, which made the movement of the two approaching come to nothing.

"Madam, are you still used to coming to the palace?" Fu Zimo didn't even look at the two of them, but turned to ask Qin Luoyan.

Qin Luoyan grabbed a handful of melon seeds, felt the sad eyes from Yun Xiaoying and Xiao Changyue, and felt his scalp a little numb. She watched the show well, so he had to lead the fire to her. Come on?
She just stood up and bowed to Fu Zimo, "If you go back to the prince, the palace is so splendid and majestic. It is a blessing for the women to be lucky enough to see it in this life. How dare you not get used to it? You are a wife, you can come to the palace. It is also a great blessing to relieve the boredom of Wangfei and Miss Yun."

"Oh..." Fu Zimo stared at her noncommittally, his eyes fell on her eyes, and he couldn't move them away for a long time.

This kind of gaze is too direct, Qin Luoyan really wants to yell and ask him, you, King Wuxuan, stared at her, a pregnant woman, in front of so many people, especially in front of your two women. What do the eyes see!

It’s fine to let her come to the palace as a woman, after all, she enters the back house of the palace by herself, and she is accompanied by the mistress of the palace, which is reasonable, but you stare at her as soon as you come Pull hatred for her!

I was frightened and went crazy in my heart, but I didn't dare to show the slightest displeasure on my face.

On the other hand, Yun Xiaoying couldn't stand it any longer, and rushed to Fu Zimo's side and grabbed his arm, "Mo... If you look at his wife like this, his wife will be embarrassed, besides, a woman's reputation is comparable to that of a woman." Life is more important..."

"What did this king do?" Fu Zimo raised his eyebrows and shook off her hand, "This king just thinks that the eyes of my wife look like an old friend of this king, so I can't help but look at them a few more times. "

"That's not what I mean, I'm just afraid that Madam will be awkward." Yun Xiaoying smiled sweetly, looking heartless, and asked again: "By the way, Mo, why are you here?"

"Why, where is this king going, do I want to report to you?" Fu Zimo said coldly, which made Yun Xiaoying feel a little embarrassed, her face flushed, and there was more complaint in her eyes.

Seeing her deflated, Xiao Changyue was the happiest. Seeing that Yun Xiaoying had hit a wall, Xiao Changyue would not make the same mistake again, so she hurriedly called Fu Zimo to sit down, "It's a coincidence that the prince came, Mrs. Wu was about to Give us something interesting."

Fu Zimo did not refuse, but sat down beside him, "Oh? I really want to hear what stories Wu can tell."

Qin Luoyan really wanted to kill her. Facing Fu Zimo's meaningful gaze, she could only sit down again and start from the beginning, "By the way, the Hua family lives in a remote village..."

When she mentioned that Hua Mulan had turned the key point of the battle, Yun Xiaoying said coolly, "Madam is wrong, no matter how good the disguise is, it is impossible for a woman to sneak into the barracks without being discovered Something! In the military camp, not everyone has a room, and everyone sleeps on a full bed, so it is impossible not to be noticed. Besides, this kind of woman mixed with men must be extremely vulgar, and no man would like it. Ma'am Really fooling people."

Qin Luoyan sighed, and said: "Miss Yun, what I'm telling is just a story. There may be many similarities, but the details may not be completely correct. You just listen to the story. If you want to treat the story as a If you come to study the historical facts, then you should enter the Imperial Academy."

"I'm just talking. No woman can do such a thing as killing an enemy on the battlefield. Alas, there are only stories." Yun Xiaoying seemed to deliberately contradict Qin Luoyan.Qin Luoyan knew that he was dissatisfied with the way Fu Zimo looked at her earlier.

It was rare for Xiao Changyue to stand on the same side as Yun Xiaoying, and she also ate melon seeds and said leisurely: "No, I also think that a woman is a woman who regards her husband as the sky and takes good care of her husband and in-laws." top priority."

Qin Luoyan suddenly felt a little powerless, and was almost out of breath from being tortured by the concept of hierarchy and patriarchy in this society. She sighed, but couldn't help but say: "Your husband is the sky? Why do you take the husband as the sky? What? Have you ever thought that women can do what men can do, but men don’t give us the opportunity. In the early days of society, women’s status was higher than that of men. Later, as dynasties changed, women It was only when his status was gradually weakened, and one day in the future, such a change in status will definitely change again."

"What are you talking about?" Yun Xiaoying put down the candied fruit in her hand, and looked at her with disgust on her face, "Madam's words are really rebellious, come on, I see, you don't need to tell the story, this kind of female superior male inferior It’s your luck that you didn’t get punished when you went out.”

Xiao Changyue also couldn't understand Qin Luoyan's words, but looked at Qin Luoyan with contempt. Among them noble women, only the humble peasant women at the bottom would clamor to be equal to their husbands.

Both of them lack interest, and their rejection of Qin Luoyan is surprisingly consistent.

Women's rejection of another woman is nothing more than the joy of men. They can feel Fu Zimo's interest in Qin Luoyan, so driving Qin Luoyan away serves their common purpose.

"Okay, I'm tired too, let's stop here today, and let Madam come and tell us stories when I have free time that day." Xiao Changyue said this with the intention of driving people away.

Qin Luoyan is a sensible person, she immediately stood up and prepared to leave, but before she could turn around, she heard Fu Zimo's faint voice.

"Madam, please stay." Fu Zimo's eyes fell on her, but his eyes seemed to be out of focus, as if looking into the distance through her, "Where is Madam's hometown?"

Qin Luoyan was startled, feeling a little uneasy, hesitated for a moment, and said, "If you tell me, the prince may not know, my hometown is in a very remote village in Yuncheng."

"Yuncheng." Fu Zimo murmured these two words in a low voice, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper, "I am a little curious about Madam's thoughts. Madam, please sit down and talk to me."

"Uh..." Qin Luoyan really didn't know what was wrong with Fu Zimo. If he recognized her, it would be impossible for him to have such a calm attitude. If he said he didn't recognize him, then his attitude would be too Abnormal.

Seeing her doubts, Fu Zimo said again: "To tell you the truth, Madam, I have a friend who is from the same town as my wife, and her thinking is different from ordinary people, so I think since Madam is my friend and fellow countryman, maybe I can pass Madame understands what she thinks."

Qin Luoyan breathed a sigh of relief, of course she could guess that the fellow countryman Fu Zimo was talking about was herself, "The prince may not know that our village is very remote, and it is far behind the people in other places in Yuncheng. What you think may not necessarily represent what your friend thinks."

"It's okay to talk about it." Fu Zimo motioned her to sit down.

Qin Luoyan had no choice but to bite the bullet and sit down again.

"Are you monogamous?" Fu Zimo asked suddenly.

Qin Luoyan's heart skipped a beat, and she continued to smile, "Our village is small, and there are all poor people. How can anyone be rich enough to marry two wives? It would be good to marry one, so they are all monogamous."

This answer is considered seamless, Qin Luoyan thought so, carefully looking at Fu Zimo's expression.

The air became a little silent, and the yard was very quiet. Perhaps it was Fu Zimo's anomaly that everyone could clearly feel, so no one dared to speak out at will.

When everyone was waiting impatiently, Fu Zimo suddenly stood up and walked out of the yard. He seemed to be in a bad mood, and the aura he exuded chilled the air a bit.

When Fu Zimo's figure disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, everyone in the courtyard came back to their senses.

Qin Luoyan was even more baffled. He stopped her just to ask such a question?

Once Fu Zimo left, Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying would not keep her anymore, and she took this opportunity to leave.

After leaving the back door of Prince Wuxuan's mansion, Qin Luoyan let out a long breath. God knows how much courage she used to face Fu Zimo in the courtyard just now.

But now it seems that no one recognizes Fu Zimo, so she feels relieved now.

As for Yun Xiaoying and Xiao Changyue, she thought that after today's incident, they would not take the initiative to invite her to the palace to tell stories.

She unconsciously took out the banknotes in her bosom to look at them. It was true that wealth and wealth were sought in danger, and she made a lot of money that ordinary people would not be able to earn in a few lifetimes just by walking around without any danger.

When going back, Qin Luoyan's footsteps seemed much lighter. If she hadn't been discovered in front of Fu Zimo, then she could live in Fengqi City with peace of mind.

However, she didn't know that just after she left Prince Wuxuan's mansion, the hidden guards of the palace also went to Yuncheng under the instruction of Fu Zimo.

When they returned to the yard, Granny Liu had already prepared lunch. Seeing Qin Luoyan coming back, Granny Liu went to ask Mr. Zhou and Shitou to have dinner. When they were eating, they all found that Qin Luoyan seemed to be in a good mood. Very surprised, when asked about Qin Luoyan, Qin Luoyan only replied that he had seen something interesting on the street before, and no one doubted him, so he didn't ask any more questions.

As the so-called rich and powerful, Qin Luoyan has money in his pocket, so he has the confidence to speak and do things. The next day, he went to the largest restaurant in Fengqi City to order a table of good wine and food, saying that he would like to thank Mr. Zhou a few times. I have been helping people for several months.

When Shitou heard that there was something delicious, he immediately jumped up happily. Mr. Zhou originally didn't intend to agree to this extravagant practice, but when he heard that there was the 30-year-old Huadiao that he wanted to drink most in the restaurant, he immediately expressed that he occasionally went to extravagant It's okay to say a word, Granny Liu has always been a quiet person, so naturally she wouldn't say anything even if several people went to her.

The next night, after packing up, they went out and went straight to the largest restaurant in Fengqi City.

The restaurant is divided into upper and lower floors. The upstairs rooms are all independent private rooms, but the cost of private rooms is twice that of ordinary tables. Although Qin Luoyan is rich, he has not yet reached the level of local tyrants. There is no need to use a private room, so I found a relatively clean place on the first floor and sat down.

"A cup of Huadiao three taels of silver!" Mr. Zhou opened the menu and glanced at it, and immediately exclaimed exaggeratedly, which immediately attracted the surprised eyes of the people at the next table, and he lowered his voice resentfully, "I said girl, it's too expensive here." It's expensive, why don't we come back another day when that brat treats him?"

The brat he was talking about was naturally Yin Qi, Qin Luoyan shook his head, "It's okay, I have money, just rest assured."

"I want to eat braised meatballs!" Shitou couldn't understand the menu, so he could only order what he had eaten.

Qin Luoyan patted his head, "Okay, we Shishi can eat whatever we want, and that's enough." She turned her head and asked Granny Liu, "Grandma Liu, what do you want to eat?"

"I..." Granny Liu thought for a while, and then said, "I'll just order tofu and eggplant."

The shop waiter stood aside, and when he heard the names of the dishes reported by several people, his expression immediately collapsed, "You guys are objective, we don't have these ordinary dishes in Fengxiang Building, the dishes here are all similar to those in the palace. The same, every dish is the best of the best, for example, this Dongpo donkey meat dish is our signature dish, and everyone who has eaten it objectively agrees that it is good, how about some for you?"

When Mr. Zhou saw the price, he couldn't help but let out a low voice, "One dish costs 30 taels! You are stealing money."

When the kid heard this, his face became even uglier. "Our Fengxiang Tower is at this price. If this girl hadn't booked a table in advance, you wouldn't be able to eat if you have money. Why pretend to be rich if you don't have money!"

"You little girl, how do you talk? Do you understand that the visitor is a guest?" Mr. Zhou got angry, and stood up as soon as he slapped the table.

"The ones who can afford our food are our customers! People like you who are fat and can't afford it are not our customers." The waiter pulled the menu from Mr. Zhou's hand, "Come on, if you want to eat home-cooked food, go to the small restaurant opposite, don't take our table here."

"You, you!" Mr. Zhou burst out angrily, pointing at the arrogant waiter, speechless.

Qin Luoyan was about to persuade, when the shopkeeper saw someone rushing over making noise, the shopkeeper glared at the kid, "What's the noise, didn't you see that the other guests were disturbed?"

The little boy didn't mean to admit his mistake at all, but pointed at Qin Luoyan and the others, "It's not like these bumpkins from some unknown village came to eat after guessing the fame of our Fengxianglou. Who would have thought that after looking at the price, it would be too expensive to accept.”

Qin Luoyan thought that the shopkeeper of a big restaurant should discipline Xiao Er when he spoke like this, but when the shopkeeper heard it, he said to a few people: "Why do you meet such a poor and loving person every day? People who put on face? If you can’t afford it, don’t come to our Fengxiang Tower. And you, what are you doing with them so much nonsense, why don’t you just drive them out?”

Qin Luoyan has never seen someone who is snobbish in business, but they do it so blatantly. It is a miracle that such a business can be the number one in Fengqi City!She is a little curious now, which strange flower opened this Fengxiang Tower.

According to the routine in the TV series, Qin Luoyan should have taken out a silver ticket at this time, and then slammed it on the face of the shopkeeper who looked down on people with dog eyes, and then roared proudly, "Take your most precious money here!" Serve all the good dishes to me!"

However, the reality is not a TV series. She has already been insulted by this shop owner. In order to regain her position, she let this shop make another fortune from her?She didn't want to do such a disadvantageous thing.

Therefore, Qin Luoyan smiled, and she unhurriedly raised the tea on the table to take a sip, then under the surprised eyes of the shopkeeper and the waiter, she slammed the teacup on the ground.

The crisp sound immediately attracted the attention of diners on the first floor, and many people looked in this direction. Qin Luoyan smiled strangely at the shopkeeper, then exaggeratedly covered his stomach, and shouted: "This tea is not clean !"

"You, you savage village woman, what nonsense are you talking about! This is a new good tea this year! You are so courageous that you actually blackmailed it to our Fengxiang Tower." The shopkeeper pointed at Qin Luoyan's nose angrily scold.

Qin Luoyan didn't look at him at all, but fell into Granny Liu's arms weakly, and squeezed out a few tears of grievance, "I only drank a cup of tea, it's not that there's something wrong with the tea, what's the matter? ? If you don’t believe me, let’s ask other people if they have the same symptoms?”

When she was talking, she winked at Mr. Zhou again, "Mr. Zhou, please ask the people around you."

Mr. Zhou was startled, and then he came to his senses. He walked quickly to a man at the next table, and pulled the man's wrist anxiously, "Young master, have you had your tea? Do you have any reaction?"

"I drank it, but... ouch, my stomach hurts too." The man also wailed.

Mr. Zhou went up to several other people to ask in the same way, and those people also howled when Mr. Zhou touched it, and no one saw it. When they were howling, Mr. Zhou put away the silver needle.
