Chapter 16 Buy, buy, buy, make new clothes
You are the only person in the whole Zhou Dynasty who can be called a governor at such a young was Xue Lin, Xue Rong and Shiye, the governors of Anxi.
But who would have thought that Governor Xue, who was supposed to be guarding the border thousands of miles away, would appear in Wangjing City at this time and transform into an inconspicuous bodyguard? However, at this time, the guard was standing with one hand behind his back, standing in the cramped and low tile-roofed house, but he was full of momentum and awe-inspiring.
"Get up!" Xue Lin raised his hand slightly, and his slender and deep black eyes glanced at the blacksmith who stood up in response, "Where is the person?"
"Just keep him in the woodshed." As he spoke, the blacksmith looked at each other and the other two men in the blacksmith shop who came in to greet him with a muffled voice. The two men understood and turned around to go out. "It took several days to catch this man, but after a long interrogation, nothing was ever asked..."
While they were talking, the two men just now escorted one of them up. During the pushing and shoving, he was thrown to the ground like a sack. He was actually tied into a rice dumpling, and his appearance was in a state of embarrassment. It was obvious that he had been tortured for a long time.
The faint smell of blood filled the nose, but none of the people in the room looked strange at all. Xue Lin tapped the person with his toes, and spoke in a low tone with a hint of nonchalance, "Tell me! Who are you, spying on my Anxi Army?" , what do you want?"
The man had been tortured for the past two days until his spirit was destroyed. He raised his eyes with difficulty and looked at the tall man standing in front of him against the light, crying, "Sir, please forgive me! I don't know... I really don't know. I have no ability, and I never know." They are not allowed to be reused. When they came back, they only said that they had not found anything, and they were chased by someone. They finally managed to get rid of them..." But they didn't know that they didn't get rid of them at all, and they were almost now, they died neatly, but he himself was like a frightened bird. After hiding here and there for several days, he still fell into the hands of these people. Now he could not survive but could not survive.
"Sir..." The more he thought about it, the more desperate he became. The man cried out, "We are always on standby in Wangjing City. We just received the order a few days ago, but the missions they and I received are not the same. , I really don’t know what they are going to do..."
"Stand by? Whose orders are you taking?" Xue Lin's voice was still as gentle as a casual chatter, but in the man's ears it sounded like the urging voice of the Palace of Hell.
"Young people talk softly and just make a living, but they really don't know..."
"What is your mission?" Xue Lin asked again without giving him a chance to breathe.
"I was told to buy a house. But it was too late, the house had already been bought."
"You didn't do your errand well, and your master won't punish you?"
"The master didn't reply. Maybe... maybe it's just a house, so there's nothing special about it. Besides, the person who bought the house is not an ordinary person, and he's afraid of getting into trouble... In short, he must have his considerations..."
"Who bought the house?"
"Yes... she is Princess Yun'an of Prince Jiyang's Mansion!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a strange silence in the room. The young man in Jinyi who was holding the folding fan choked and coughed a few times. Then his eyes were bright and he looked at the expressionless Xue Lin with an inexplicable expression like the others. But the others He only dared to take a peek, but he was honest and aboveboard.
Interesting, really interesting! Mingyi was completely unaware of this. She was currently in a pile of fabrics, dazzled to the point of dizziness.
"What do you think of this one? It's pearlescent and sparkling in the sunlight. It will definitely look dazzling when made into a wedding dress."
"Just this one!" Mingyi said immediately, fearing that it would be endless if she continued to choose.
"Are you serious? But I think the one with the dark stripes just now is pretty good..." Gao said, putting down the one in his hand and going to pick up the other one.
Mingyi hurriedly took the fabric into her hands, "Seriously, I like this one." Gao looked at her suspiciously, "This is your own wedding dress, don't worry about it."
"Who can't care less? Didn't I pick my favorite one? Then I will make a beautiful wedding dress. When I get married, I will wear it so that others will praise me. Like mother, like daughter. She is a great beauty. Son!" Mingyi smiled and flattered.
Mrs. Gao glared at her angrily, "You'd better be really interested!" He glanced to the side and gave her a bad smile, "Okay! Aren't you interested? Then just be interested a little longer." , pick again!”
"These are..." Mingyi was shocked when she saw it!The pink ones, the lotus root powder ones, the goose yellow ones... are all as thin as cicada wings.
"These are all made for you." Mrs. Gao whispered in her daughter's ear.
With a "boom", Mingyi's face turned red when he understood.
Mrs. Gao was still trying to comfort her, "It's different when you get married. You have to capture the man's heart first, and then the couple will be harmonious. Why worry about having a hard time? Don't be shy. This is a normal thing. You still have a lot to learn, and now I can slowly teach you..."
Mingyi: "..." This is really her own mother, completely different from the eldest princess.
After all, she is not a little girl who has never seen the world. Mingyi quickly calmed down and picked out a few horses that she liked according to Gao's wishes. Gao was very happy and whispered to Aunt Xiuying who was close to her about what happened to Xiaoyi. She asked Luo Suhe to choose two outfits for her...
Mingyi looked around and raised her hand to call to Yun Jinxiang's man, "You guys are here to pick out some of the best fabrics for men's inner and outer shirts and show them to me."
The Gao family members looked over with different expressions, but Mingyi smiled calmly, "Didn't Aniang say that? You have to think of how to capture a man's heart..."
Naturally, Mingyi had no idea that the man she wanted to capture was now in Wangjing City with her. Not only that, he also quietly went to visit her just now, together with the young master in Jinyi who was traveling with him. I did some research on the house I bought, but... naturally, I came back in vain.
"No matter how I look at it, that house is just ordinary. What's so different about it? How about we go directly to Princess Yun'an?" Young Master Jinyi is the only son of Marquis Xuanping. Everyone in the capital calls him "Little Marquis" Xu he was 14 years old, he was thrown into the army of Anxi by Marquis Xuanping for training, whereupon he met Xue Lin and became a close he said this, he moved the folding fan in his hand little by little, and his gaze on Xue Lin became even more narrow-minded.
Xue Lin didn't understand his little thoughts, but she just glanced at him lightly, with a hint of warning in her eyes, but there was no change on her face.
Xu You realized that he was bored and sighed, "After all, Princess Yun'an is one of our own, so you won't suffer any loss if you ask. Besides, you are already here in Wangjing, and your Majesty is just in time to confer marriage on you." , it’s only human nature for you to secretly visit your fiancée.”
Xue Lin stared at him and narrowed his eyes.
Xu You raised his hand as if to admit defeat, "I know you must be scolding me in your heart. Although you came to Wangjing to track down the suspicious spy, even if His Majesty is kind and will not blame you, it is inevitable that you will be true to your words. , after all, the border guard is not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned. Therefore, in order to cause unnecessary trouble, your whereabouts in Wangjing City must not be exposed. But things are already like this. The house is related to Princess Yun'an, so you really don't have to worry. ? As long as you don’t show up, I’ll go and ask, okay?”
"Are you just doing it for the house?" Xue Lin's sharp eyebrows were raised slightly, and his narrow eyes were full of understanding.
Xu You chuckled, "Of course I'm also curious about what your future wife's temperament is like, and whether it's the same as the rumors. Aren't you curious?"
