Chapter 26 Tonight, I Forgot to Put on Makeup

The manager of Hualing Garden will give 20 taels of silver to the masters of each pavilion every month. In fact, it means that most people in Hualing Garden live on the property sent by their own country.

Murong Qiqi doesn't have any background in Nanmu Country, and every time the property sent by Nanmu Country is kept by Murong Susu, she will distribute it.

It is conceivable that under such circumstances, how much money can be allocated to her Wuchen Pavilion?
Murong Susu was afraid that she would starve to death in Wuchen Pavilion.

"Isn't there 20 and two months' money this month? Why did you spend it so quickly?" She blinked and looked at Tweety expectantly.

Cui'er pursed her lips, and said helplessly, "Although Cui'er's family is poor, she won't cheat the princess of her money."

The main reason is that this Seventh Princess is too poor, even if she is cheated, she can't get a few pennies. She doesn't care about this little money.

"Princess, you spent more than a dozen cars on the streets this month, all of which were donated to rouge and gouache." She will never forget this kind of thing.

Murong Qiqi didn't speak, in fact, he had already remembered that Murong Qiqi in the past was indeed too ignorant, except for rouge and powder, he didn't even pay attention to food and drink.

After a moment of silence, she said, "It means that we can't even afford to eat?"

"That's not the case. There is still rice in the rice tank. The princess usually doesn't eat much in order to lighten her body, so there is still a surplus of rice distributed this month." But it is only rice. He also said: "As long as we only eat vegetarian meals for every meal in the future, and wait for the manager to deliver meat before eating meat, we can barely survive this month."

"Be vegetarian!" No, no, no, this is definitely not a human life. If you don't eat meat and only eat vegetarian, even if there is only one meal, she will not be able to bear it.

"Princess……"

"Are there any hills behind this palace?" Qi Qi asked suddenly.

"There are several hills, but..." Tweety looked at her and asked in surprise, "What does the princess want to do?"

"Nothing to do, just suddenly remembered that there might be some wild vegetables there." She stood up and walked towards the closet, "Go back to your room first, I'm going to rest."

"What wild vegetables? That's a royal place, and ordinary people are not allowed to wander in." In particular, there is an amazing person living there. The seventh princess wanted to go there to pick wild vegetables. It was because her head was broken, or she heard it wrong. ?

Cui'er rubbed the space between her eyebrows, and calmly said: "If the princess is still sleepy, then go to bed early, tomorrow I will pawn some jewelry, and then I will buy some meat for the princess."

She could tell that the seventh princess is a master who does not want to be vegetarian.

"Okay." Qiqi replied casually, and waited for Tweety to leave the door before she dug out the oldest set of clothes from the closet, went to the door and locked the door, picked up the scissors, and took out the excess clothes. The decorations are cut off, so that the whole dress returns to the simplest appearance.

Putting on light clothes, she felt that even her movements were too agile. She walked to the table, lightly blew out the candle, and then came to the window, and turned out carefully.

She is a person of action, she will act immediately when she decides to do something, even Tweety would never have guessed that what she said about picking wild vegetables was true.

But one thing is false. What she is looking for is not wild vegetables. She is not interested in vegetarian food. There must be many rare medicinal herbs in the mountains behind the mountain. It can also be exchanged for some silver.

Being a vegetarian every day was more terrifying than killing her, so she risked everything to eat meat.

She left in such a hurry that she forgot the most important thing. Tonight, she didn't put on makeup...

The guards in Hualing Garden were very lax, only one or two guards were patrolling, and the back door was heavily guarded, so she naturally didn't dare to touch it. As for the two guards at the front door, they just napped and turned on the water all day long.

However, Qiqi didn't go out the back door or the front door tonight, instead, she walked around the high wall and slipped out quickly by the trunk of a big tree nearby.

The imperial palace is very big, really big, if you dare not pass through the palace, you can only spare the palace wall and rush outside to the back mountain.

This walk, let alone an hour, when Qi Qi arrived at the first foot of the back mountain, the night was already dark.

Rubbing her slightly sore calves, she took a deep breath, dodged the guards at the foot of the mountain, slipped in through the side path, and immediately separated a large distance from the guards below.

This is not a palace, and the guards are not strict. Except for a few guards at the foot of the mountain, there will be no guards on the mountain.

However, I heard that Prince Nan usually likes to live in the mountains, often he doesn’t even want to go back to the palace, and spends his days in the mountains all day long. Qiqi knows that a certain mountain here must be especially heavily guarded, as long as he avoids that mountain range, he can go anywhere. No one will stop it.

Along the way up the mountain, although she saw a lot of herbs on the road, but this time for the purpose of exploring the road, she was not in a hurry to pick the herbs at first, but walked around the mountain forest with enough energy.

Sure enough, as she expected, from the palace to the west, there was a solemn atmosphere lingering on the halfway up the second mountain, which should be the place where Prince Nan lived.

According to legend, the Nan Wang Ye had been ill since he was a child. It is indeed a good thing to recuperate in such a remote mountain, but it is a bit embarrassing for a Wang Ye to live here for a long time.

Come to think of it, this prince also knows that his fate is not long, so he wastes time on cultivating his mind and character.

Dodging that mountain range, Qi Qi rushed in the opposite direction, and soon reached the top of another mountain.

I saw a lot of medicinal herbs along the way, but there were not many of high value, and I am afraid that they all grew on the cliffs.

She took another deep breath and rushed all the way to the edge of the cliff. Under the faint moonlight, she really saw a few ambergris growing on the cliff.

Ambergris, also known as Ambergris ginseng, is used for liver and kidney deficiency, restlessness, insomnia and dreaminess. It's never difficult by yourself.

She tied the cloth bag tightly around her waist, tore off the skirts and tied them to her legs. Feeling more relaxed, she climbed up the steep rock wall and slid down carefully.

After finally taking down two ambergris plants, seeing the third and last one growing in a steeper cliff, she hesitated for a moment, weighing the physical strength and endurance needed in the past, and then made up her mind to climb down.

After a stick of incense, the third ambergris landed in her cloth bag.

Looking up at the top of the cliff, she took a deep breath and climbed up cautiously again.

As soon as he was about to climb to the top of the cliff, suddenly, a low and deep voice sounded softly: "There is another plant below, which is worth more than the three plants in your bag combined."

The sound made Murong Qi Qi startled, her feet slipped, and she fell straight to the bottom of the cliff like this.

The man who spoke obviously didn't expect the other party to be so frightened by him. If he knew that she had a guilty conscience when she came here to get the medicine, he probably wouldn't speak to scare her.

Seeing the woman below falling straight down, his face became quiet, suddenly he tapped his feet, jumped lightly, and jumped off the cliff after chasing her.

Although Qiqi was so frightened that she fell off the cliff, she did not give up. Instead, she paid attention to the surrounding environment calmly along the way. Finally, she saw a rock growing out of the mountain, and she quickly put her hands together to climb it.

The mountain rock slipped away from her palm. Although she still couldn't save herself, the force of her fall was finally slowed down a bit.

In just a few minutes, a man in white clothes had come to her side, clasped her wrist with a big palm, tapped the stone wall twice with both feet, and the two miraculously flew towards the top of the cliff.

Murong Qiqi suddenly called out in a low voice: "Wait, stop for a second."

Pause for a moment... The man in white frowned slightly, looking down at her little face that was slightly flushed from exertion, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

At this time, she was not screaming in fright, but calmly asked him to stop. Is this woman too slow-minded or really courageous.

He didn't know what flashed in his eyes, suddenly there was a little mischief in his heart, he let go of his hand, and Qi Qi, who had lost traction, immediately slid down.

But this time Qi Qi was well prepared, the moment he let go of her, she clung tightly to the protruding stone, even though she still couldn't stop sliding a few points, she quickly stopped herself.

"Thank you." After leaving a word of thanks, she quickly groped towards the other side of the cliff without even raising her head.

The fourth ambergris plant had thick stems and leaves, plump and juicy, and as the man said, it was worth more than the combined value of the three plants just now.

She happily put away the ambergris, and then she turned her head and smiled happily at the man in white who was still hanging gracefully on the stone wall, "You have a good eye, thank you."

This smile, under the faint moonlight, looks so plain and innocent, with bright eyes, delicate brows, bright red lips, small and tall nose bridge, and a smile that makes the world pale.

It's really rare that an ordinary girl picking herbs has such beauty.

But the man in white didn't linger on her. Seeing that she had started to climb up steadily, he didn't hesitate any longer, and with a few light taps, he was firmly standing on the top of the cliff in a blink of an eye.

Qiqi felt a little regretful, she should have asked him to help her just now, since her martial arts are so good, it would not be difficult to help her up.

After finally climbing to the top of the cliff, Qiqi paralyzed on the grass and stretched out his limbs, already so tired that he only had the strength to breathe.

He thought that the man in white was from the royal family and would wait here to question himself, but he didn't see him after he came up. Fortunately, he might be just like her, just a treasure hunter.

However, looking at his extraordinary demeanor, even if he couldn't see his face clearly, he knew that he was definitely not a person from an ordinary family. This kind of person is either rich or expensive, so it's better not to mess with him.

After resting for a long time, she got up when she regained her strength, and groped towards the foot of the mountain under the moonlight.

Although only four ambergris plants were harvested tonight, with these four plants alone, it is not difficult to eat meat and drink in big bowls for the rest of this month.

After walking for less than half a stick of incense, Qi Qi's face suddenly darkened, she made a wrong foot, and quickly hid behind a tree trunk beside her.
