Beloved at the Door - Chapter 2
“Hey! Get out of the way!”
The sudden violent drink made her turn her head and saw a carriage coming here. The people on the road were dodged in terror, and the hawker stalls that could not dodge had only been knocked over.
She curled her eyebrows. The Daxing Dynasty ordered that unless there was a military emergency order, she should not ride a horse on the street and run into the people. But occasionally, some stubborn children did not abide by the rules and arrogantly crossed the market.
The people dodged one after another on the road, but she stood where she was. She didn’t intend to dodge until the horse was approaching. At this time, someone suddenly took her arm and pulled her to the side of the road.
It was so sudden that she staggered and almost fell. In order to balance her body, she also subconsciously grabbed the opponent’s arm.
“Is the girl okay?” A man’s voice came, cold and cold.
She is not angry, what’s wrong with her? She originally planned to hide, but the cock-in-law suddenly pulled her away and caused her to stand unsteady.
After steadying her body, she raised her eyes to look at the person who was holding her, and she was taken aback.
The young man in front of him has a cool appearance, solemn expression, flying eyebrows, and sharp eyes, although he exudes the aura of a scholar, he has an unangered and mighty courage.
But what made her stunned was not his handsome appearance, but that she recognized this face, and she lowered her head at the first glance.
“I’m fine, thank you son for helping me.” After speaking, he turned around and left.
“Girl, wait a minute.”
She kept walking, pretending not to hear.
“Girl, your purse has fallen.”
She stopped and touched her waist subconsciously, but then she didn’t think it was right, she didn’t carry a purse at all…Oh, shit!
Just because of this moment of hesitation, he was caught up by the opponent.
“This girl.” The voice sounded clearly behind her, and it would be too fake to pretend not to hear it again.
She turned around and asked blankly, “The son called me?”
“The girl is a bit familiar, have we met somewhere?” Young Master Leng Jun stared at her, his eyes sharp.
“I can’t get out of the door, and the second door is not open. The son has admitted the wrong person.” She replied shyly.
“Really?” Young Master Leng Jun was still staring at her, his eyes too bright and extremely focused.
“My son, don’t stare at others like this, please be respectful.” She looked like “What do you want to do?” She clasped her shirt tightly.
Di Jing came back to his senses and realized that it was indeed wrong for him to stare at a girl like this.
“I have admitted the wrong person. It is impolite.” He retracted his gaze and felt disappointed in his heart. He just saw a similar back and thought it was her, and saw the carriage rushing towards her. He was anxious and didn’t even think about it. Rushed over and pulled her aside.
After seeing her face clearly, he was shocked again. It was not her, but it made him feel familiar. After seeing the other person’s fearful appearance, the familiar feeling disappeared again.
He turned to leave, but this time she was yelled at.
“Master, wait a minute.”
He stopped and looked back at her.
“My purse.” She stretched out her hand to ask him.
His face became stiff, and he stared at her again, saying that it was a fake that the purse fell, she actually asked him? Is it on purpose? Looking at her with a serious look, it didn’t seem to be a pretense. The two of them stood in a stalemate for a while. In the end, without saying anything, he took off his purse and put it in her hands without looking back. Leave.
Shangguan Yan was stupid, did he really give her a purse? She was only naughty for a while, thinking that since he said she had lost her money bag, she would ask him to see how he could be born? I was mainly curious about his reaction, but I didn’t expect that he would really give it!
The weight in this hand, weird, there are still a lot of silver ingots.
She has seen stingy and generous, but she has never seen someone like this who insists on giving away her money bag in order to be true to her lies.
“Heh…” She chuckled and watched the man disappear into the crowd.
She recognized him, Di Jing, she didn’t expect to see him again, but fortunately he didn’t recognize herself.
There is a risk in the fast-paced business, and it is inevitable to get enemies with others, so Shangguan Yan never gives people a chance to seek revenge.
Suddenly seeing him, she recalled her memories again. It has been two years since they met. When they first met, she had pockmarks on her face, which was very different from her current appearance. What’s more, she used a fake identity and fake identity. He knew her name at best, but it was impossible to recognize her.
As for how she met him? Of course it was not a pleasant experience. She didn’t need to have anything to do with this person anymore. Today’s encounter was just a coincidence for her.
She bypassed her own Xinlanzhi powder shop and walked in through a small door beside her. The buddies inside saw her and immediately welcomed her in.
“Where is Kirou?”
“The shopkeeper is waiting, I’m going to inform Kirou now.”
Xilang is her big buddy, responsible for helping her manage the rouge shop. Not long after, Xilang came. He was different from Cuilang’s handsome appearance. Xilang was more delicate and handsome. He was handsome in a typical southern man. He has a pair of peachy eyes. A dimple, very much loved by girls.
“Subordinates, see Miss.”
“Can there be new goods?”
“Have.”
Xilang immediately ordered someone to deliver the new products. Although the rouge shop sells rouge gouache, privately this shop exclusively delivers news on behalf of Shangguan Yan.
This new product was delivered this morning. Shangguan Yan opened the hidden compartment under a finely carved powder box to reveal the bottom layer with a letter hidden inside.
Shangguan Yan raised his eyebrows after reading the letter. “Master Tian’s heart disease relapsed and died?”
Xilang took the letter from Shangguan Yan, read it quickly, and said, “The magistrate doesn’t have a heart disease on weekdays. Why did he suddenly die?”
They say that Master Tian is the magistrate of Jinhe County. Jinhe County is located in the southeast of the capital. Although the county magistrate is not high, it is the first place. The so-called Tiangao emperor is far away. The capital of prestige, many people give money and bribes to break their heads, just to get a magistrate to do it.
The reason Shangguan Yan stared at this Master Tian was based on years of intuition of catching quickness. This Master Tian was originally a junior officer. He was over forty years old and had several people in his family. He knew that he was greedy at first glance. Shangguan Yan stared at him, but just waiting for evidence.
“Go and ask the beggars in Jinhe County, after Master Tian died, did anyone disappear or travel far?”
“Yes.”
Shangguan Yan opened another toner box, opened the letter and read it, his eyes brightened.
“Is there a court prisoner who has escaped? A reward of 10,000 taels is offered. Not to mention the open and secret arrests in the provinces and cities. I am afraid that even the people of the rivers and lakes will want to get a share of the rewards.
“Miss wants to catch?”
Shangguan Yan shook his head. “In such a big case, in which round will we get us, there are still four famous arrests. This case is too eye-catching. Let’s not focus on it and don’t fight with others.
“Yes.” Xilang responded with a smile. He was Shangguan Yan’s capable subordinate, responsible for the rouge shop, from imperial concubines and ladies to daughters of various families, all of them were their clients.
Xilang pleases girls, and often acts as their interpreter. He listens to the girl’s thoughts and listens. He can always find out some secrets about the back house that is not known to outsiders. He then sorts out the useful news and reports it. Miss knows.
After reading other news, Shangguan Yan ordered Xilang. “Help me send these new rouge products to the three sisters.” When sending the new products, they also send news.
“Yes.” Xilang smiled and walked away.
When Shangguan Yan left the rouge shop, she had already changed into women’s clothing, put on a water-blue robe, and holding a folding fan, she transformed into a handsome boy.
Her stature is slightly taller than ordinary women, and her proportions are well-proportioned. Once she dresses up as a man, her movement habits also change. She walks in the street with a graceful manner. Many girls secretly look at her while she looks back at them. A smile immediately made the girls blush.
She unhurriedly opened the folding fan and shook it gently, without knowing how much her heart was disturbed along the way, she came to the next street and looked at Fumen Inn.
Live in an inn? Of course not, she just came to visit the inn she runs.
As soon as she approached, she saw many people crowded at the entrance of her inn.
problem occurs?
Shangguan Yan curled his eyebrows, speeded up his steps to the back of the crowd, and asked a middle-aged woman at random.
“Auntie, what happened?”
“Someone quarreled.”
Just quarreling? Not fighting? What are the people excited about?
“Fighting is so good?”
The woman said: “It’s not nice to quarrel, but it’s nice to argue with two handsome boys.”
Shangguan Yan raised his eyebrows and nodded. “Auntie is right.”
When the aunt was talking to her, her eyes were still staring ahead, she turned her head inadvertently and aimed at her. With this glance, her eyes instantly shined.
“Oh, this little brother is so handsome.”
Shangguan Yan was teased by the aunt’s stare, and he didn’t care about it, and even gave a smile.
“Dare to ask Auntie, how handsome are those two young men in the room?” It is not Shangguan Yan who is boasting. She thinks she is very good-looking as a man. Although she is not the most beautiful man, she is above average.
The aunt chuckled, and really looked at her unceremoniously, making a very pertinent comment.
“Brother is very handsome, but the two in them are more charming.”
Shangguan Yan doesn’t follow her anymore, so he looks better than her? She wanted to see what the two of them looked like, and she squeezed forward as she said.
“I’m sorry, let’s let, let’s let.”
