Chapter 22 Tour of the Lake
What Hu Yimeng doesn't know at this moment is that if any flower girl who becomes the flower leader of Tianji City is still a maid, she will hold a bud party the next night after winning the flower leader to buy the first night. Last year, after Lianqin won the Huakui, a bud conference was also held, and it was Mr. Wang who bought her on the first night, but coincidentally, Mr. Wang's mother, who had been seriously ill in bed, suddenly had a disease and fell critical illness. Although Mr. Wang bought Lianqin's first-night, he was not blessed.
Mr. Wang hurried home, but he only had time to see his mother for the last time. After the death of Mr. Wang's mother, he was filial to his mother for three years according to the law of etiquette. The prince was afraid of the words of his father and uncle in the past few months and stayed at home for a few months, but after all, the dog could not change to eat shit, and soon his original shape was revealed and wanted to possess Lianqin. Naturally, Mother He would not stop her, but poor Qin was saved by Kong Long by mistake.
I don't know what tricks Kong Long used, which made Mr. Wang always be afraid of him. He could only send people to stare at Lianqin secretly, so that he could wait for the opportunity to take advantage of Kong Long's absence from Lianqin.
Today, the eyeliner he bought in Wanhua Building told him that Kong Long did not stay at Lianqin last night, so he hurriedly sent someone to invite Lianqin to visit the lake together. In Wang's opinion, although it is called Youhu this time, if he got on the cruise ship, he would have to do anything else.
And it is precisely this matter that Lianqin is worried about. It's just that it's inconvenient to say something directly to Hu Yimeng, so she concealed it.
Hu Yimeng clenched her fists and was very anxious for Lianqin. "Otherwise, you should pretend to be sick and don't go." Hu Yimeng suggested.
"Yimeng, you don't know that this prince is the master we can't afford to provoke, and we have to go today." Lianqin said helplessly and arranged Qiao'er to dress her head.
"In that case, I will go with you today!" Hu Yi dreamed that he was at least a woman from modern times, and also had a man with other ideas at work. In addition, he is now at least a nine-tailed fox demon. Although he doesn't know any spells, it is not a problem to protect himself. With Lianqin, he can also have a photo with Lianqin anyway. Should.
"Yi Meng..." Lianqin looked at Hu Yimeng and hesitated, "This trip is uncertain. In case you have any mistake, won't I fail to live up to Mr. Kong's trust?"
"Rianqin, we are friends, aren't we? How can I watch you face such a dage alone!" Hu Yimeng took Lianqin's hand and said, "Lianqin, don't worry, I have a way to deal with Mr. Wang!"
After saying that, she blinked at Lianqin and had a prototype of a plan to deal with Mr. Wang in her heart.
Taking advantage of Qiaoer's dressing up for Lianqin, Hu Yimeng ran to the small kitchen in Lianqin's yard to get some pot bottom ash, and participated in some lead powder used by women in Dayu to dress up, reconciled the two together, and then applied them on her cheeks, neck and arms. In this way, the original white skin instantly changed Dark yellow and black hair, and then she picked up the charcoal pen used to trace her eyebrows and turned her slender willow eyebrows into two thick-black "pillars", and then painted countless small ptings on her cheeks.
With such a disguise, she can't have a little beauty before disguise. She is obviously an ordinary and even ugly little girl.
Lianqin and Qiao'er stared at Hu Yimeng pretending to be ugly. In their consciousness, women's makeup has always been to make themselves more beautiful, but this is the first time they have seen this behavior of making themselves ugly.
"Yi Meng... What are you doing? How can you dress yourself up like this..." Lianqin didn't say the word "ugly", but Hu Yimeng was already clear.
She winked at Lianqin and smiled mysteriously, "It naturally makes sense for me to dress like this. At that time, you can watch the play. I just hope it doesn't scare you.
"Yi Meng, you are really eccentric, not like a woman in this world." Lianqin shook her head and sighed.
Lianqin felt that the strange woman in front of her was different from any woman she usually saw in terms of her behavior and way of thinking.
Hearing Lianqin's words, Hu Yimeng laughed dryly and thought that she was originally a woman in the world, and her words and behaviors were naturally different from those of this era. However, she will never tell anyone that she is a traveler and dressed as a foxen by mistake.
After all, this is a feudal era. Those demons and monsters are the most taboo in the world. She doesn't want to be chased by ignorant ancient people.
It didn't take long for Mr. Wang to pick up Lianqin as his mother said.
Hu Yimeng didn't take the little fox when she went out this time. She took two meat buns from the kitchen to lure the little fox to take care of the house, and then went out with Lianqin.
Mr. Wang's carriage parked at the back door of the Wanhua Building. After all, he is still guarding the period of filial piety, and Da Yuguo attaches great importance to filial piety, so he dares not act so flamboyantly. He just privately took a confidant to pick up Lianqin to the appointment.
Seeing the carriage parked at the back door, Hu Yimeng couldn't help smashing his tongue. This Wang family is really rich.
Two tall and strong, snow-white tall horses are holding a carriage carved with complex patterns and painted with bright paint. The car is also surrounded by satin-lined fronts embroidered with pictures of hundreds of beasts. The four corners of the car have sachets filled with spices, and when you approach the carriage, you can smell a fragrance coming towards you.
Is this the legendary BMW car? Hu Yimeng felt that this was an eye-opener.
This time, the person who came to pick up Lianqin to visit the lake was the stewmer in Wang Gongzi's courtyard.
The steward is about 40 years old, with a fair face and no need. With a flattish face, he seems to know that he is a treacherous villain. Hu Yimeng secretly thought that if there is a servant, there must be a lord, and he will reuse such a person. The prince is really not a good thing.
"Miss Lianqin, you are finally here. My young master said that the lotus flowers in the East Lake are in full bloom today, and the special little girl went to visit the East Lake with him. Girl, please get in the car. The stewor nodded and asked Lianqin to get in the car.
Lian Qin ignored the ward's flattering smile and got into the carriage with her help.
Hu Yimeng also followed Lianqin into the carriage waiting outside the back door.
The stewor was not angry. He sat down next to the driver and ordered the driver to drive the car to the East Lake.
The carriage began to drive smoothly.
Hu Yimeng quietly looked at the decoration in the carriage. The interior decoration is better than the exterior.
Everywhere is inlaid with gold and silver, dotted with all kinds of gems and precious jade. The seats in the carriage are covered with a thick layer of animal fur, which looks like tiger skin in color. The floor is covered with thick white wool blankets. There are also dark compartments in the carriage, with these incense burners, wine pots and snacks, food and so on.
How much manpower and material resources will it take to build such a car!
Hu Yimeng heard about Lianqin's family background before, and also learned that Mr. Wang's father was a senior official in charge of Caoyun.
That's one of the most oily places in all dynasties. Salt has always been an important source of national finance. Now that the Wang family is in control of the transportation, there is really nothing to say.
There is someone in the court, and there is money in his hand. It is not difficult to explain why Mr. Wang can be so rampant and arrogant.
Hu Yimeng still remembers the sentence that Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, in history books before traveling: How can the collapse of lying on his side allow others to sleep soundly?
She couldn't help sympathizing with the emperor of the Dayu Kingdom. With such a foreign family that governs the government and finances, I'm afraid he can't sleep well.
Although this was just a random thought in Hu Yimeng's own heart, he guessed the unhappiness in the heart of Beichen Yeli, the emperor of the Dayu Kingdom.
Two flowers bloom, one for each.
It is said that Beichen Yeli rushed to Shenfu in Tianji City overnight, but he did not see the person he wanted to see. Although there was still no change in his face, he was still vaguely unhappy in his heart.
What a shrewd person Shen Qingxi is. Of course, he can see the unhuppleasure in his master's heart, but he can't say it directly. Naturally, he won't do this kind of stupid thing that hits the muzzle.
It has been two days, and the number of people in the city looking for the little girl named Hu Yimeng is increasing. The master even sent out the most elite men in the dark guards. Fangyuan has made a hundred miles of unannounced visits, but there is still no news back. A good person seems to have evaporated from the world, and there is no trace to be found.
Shen Qingxi was secretly surprised, but he also knew that his master's patience was being worn out little by little.
Early this morning, the dark guard came to report that he still couldn't find the whereabouts of the little girl.
The cold air that has been hovering on the master is even better.
Shen Qingxi thought that it was not a way for the master to be so gloomy. It was better to divert the master's attention and let him stop being entangled with the running girl.
"Master." Shen Qingxi personally sent the newly made tea to Beichen Yeli, who was reading the memorials sent by the dark guard from the imperial capital all night behind the big pear blossom wooden desk sitting in the study.
"What's the matter?" Beichen Yeli held the red pen in his hand and said without raising his head.
"Although the master came to Tianji City this time to secretly investigate the corruption of the Wang family, it is impossible to grasp the exact evidence for this matter for a moment. Qingxi saw that the master seemed to be depressed recently, so he dared to suggest that Qingxi should accompany the master out for a walk. First, he can observe the people's feelings, and secondly, he can relax." Shen Qingxi bowed his hand to Beichen Yeli and suggested that he should arrive.
Although Shen Qingxi did not say that he was in a bad mood, he suggested that he go out for a walk. Don't always remember the little woman who escaped from under his eyes again, but his painstaking efforts were not inviable.
