The Beauty Blogger Chapter 61: ipsa golden water
Quming City.
When Yunli led his horse into the city gate, he was shocked by the familiar yet unfamiliar street scene.
He stopped and looked, and it seemed that everything was exactly the same as the year he left home.
This is a small town where the Miao and Han races live together, and the residents in the city have different styles of clothing. At the jewelry booth, the pearl and hairpin jewelry favored by the girls of the Han family are placed together with the Miao silver ornaments that the Miao family loves to use.
Beside the jewelry stall, the mother-in-law who sells bamboo rice is waiting for customers with a friendly smile, Yun Li went to buy a copy, and asked her politely: "Grandma, who is the head of the Yun family in the south of the city now? Still the same as three years ago?"
"Chengnan Yun's family..." The mother-in-law thought for a while, nodded and said, "There is no change, and it is still the same as three years ago!"
Yun Li was slightly stagnant, and asked again: "Then do you know how the Yun family's harvest has been in recent years? The granary is full?"
"Harvest is good!" The mother-in-law laughed when she mentioned this, "Last autumn had a big harvest, and the granary of Yun's family was so full that it couldn't hold it. The family is also generous, and the rice that can't be saved is sold at 30% price Neighbors in the city—isn’t this the same as giving away? The rice in a bamboo tube in your hand is made from the rice I bought from the Yun’s family.”
It was originally made from homemade rice. Yun Li couldn't help choking, and looked down at the rice in a bamboo tube in his hand, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He said goodbye to the mother-in-law who sold bamboo rice, and continued to walk south, passing through a few bustling crowds, passing through a few desolate and empty streets, turning left and right. The mansion that I hadn't seen for a long time finally appeared before my eyes.
Yunfu.
Yun Li looked at the plaque on the door and took a few breaths, tied his horse to the wooden post next to him, and went forward to knock on the door.
"Du, Du." The door knocker knocked twice on the wooden door, and the door of the mansion opened.
The boy who opened the door looked younger than Yunli, and looked at him hesitantly: "You are..."
The servant woman who was carrying a bucket in the courtyard gasped and said, "Young Master Li?!"
She threw the bucket a few steps and rushed to the door, waved the boy to enter the room to be silent, and lowered her voice: "Why are you back? Do you know..."
"I know." Yun Li nodded resolutely, and said again, "But I have some urgent matters and I have to come back. You let me in, and I will go to greet my parents, and then go to see all the uncles and elders."
The servant woman only felt that if he entered this door, he would not be able to get out alive no matter what, and wanted to persuade him to leave. But under Yunli's gaze, she couldn't say a word, she froze for a moment and then said: "Then you... can be soft with the masters, and you will be soft. You know, Yiyun's family is in Quming. It is not difficult for you to marry a good girl, so don't try to make the elders angry."
"Yeah." Yun Li nodded. The maid stepped aside, and he stepped into the door.
After thinking about it, he said again: "My sister...is she already married?"
"Yes, married at the end of last year. It's a good family, I've heard of it well." The servant girl replied.
Yun Li sighed lightly: "Then you don't have to tell her that I'm back. Let her live well with her husband's family, don't mention me as an older brother."
He said and walked straight in. Along the way, older servants recognized him constantly, and the uncontrollable surprise on their faces seemed like they had seen a ghost.
Yunli just felt that there seemed to be dislike for him everywhere.
He had never felt such a strong dislike in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, so much so that when he walked to his parents' residence, he already disliked himself.
He felt like a monster, out of tune with this family, no one would like him. Even, most of the people here hoped that he would die right away.
Yun Li took another two steps forward, and found that the familiar boy from the past was already standing by the door, staring at him dumbfounded.
He smiled bitterly, and said softly: "I'm back, please thank my parents."
The boy swallowed forcefully, and ran into the main room as if fleeing.
A moment later, the teapot in the main room flew out together with a curse: "Get out!!!"
.
In the palace, Si Yan fell into a confusion where she only hated that she was not Sherlock Holmes.
A few days ago, she told Si Wan Si Rao that she had to get back the paper with Qi Guan Yi's seal on it, thinking that if Si Rao couldn't get it out, then Qi Guan Yi's suspicion was probably right.
At that time, Si Wan responded very simply, Si Rao hesitated for a while and agreed.
But in the end...the two of them went back to their residence and told her that they couldn't find it.
This is so embarrassing. The law pays attention to evidence, one is to demonstrate justice and convincing people, and the other is because solid evidence is a reliable logical chain. After all, people's hearts are very easy to be biased, and judgments made without real evidence are likely to be caused by prejudice.
Then there is no evidence to prove that it was Si Rao's poison, what should I do? Abandon reason and trust intuition? Or think about it in another way, for example, Si Wan and Si Rao teamed up to commit the crime...?
I can't! She is not so hated!
Si Yan was crouching in front of the dressing table with her head downcast, knocking the lotion on her hands for skin care, curling her lips, feeling that people are not going well...not even doing skin care!
When the Shanggong Bureau came to deliver skin care products this month, I glanced at her through the inspection panel and found that the water delivered was ipsa flowing gold water. This product is also very popular on the Internet. It is said that it is mild and non-irritating, and can be used on sensitive skin.
She didn't even feel the "easy to absorb" item, that was the feeling of applying paper film in the real world. Now you can only shoot with your hands, which makes it even more tasteless.
Si Yan wanted to use it in a different way. She thought it would be good if there was mushroom water, snow muscle essence and calendula water, but the Shanggong Bureau told her: "Recently, the war ahead is tight, so we can't get those for now."
Si Yan's dull face: What does war have to do with the skin care products of the court ladies? Are the skin care products in the palace "imported" from the rebels? Not as far as she knows!
God set...
However, like this, she has no other choice. If the Shanggong Bureau can't provide it, she can't provide it. For the time being, she can only make do with the money.
After another morning of doing nothing, after taking a nap, Si Yan had just finished putting on her makeup when Si Yan heard that the imperial concubine had passed her on.
As soon as Si Yan entered the palace to salute, she saw a smile on the tired face of the imperial concubine: "Ah Yan, come quickly. Xiaojiu's letter is counted, this time there is still one from you, I haven't opened it, you can read it yourself .”
In the past few days, the imperial concubine has been worried.
Qi Guan Baoyuan wrote a letter to the imperial concubine every ten days. However, due to the tension of the war recently, his letter was not delivered in time. Si Yan pinched her fingers and calculated that it was six or seven days late. Of course, the concubine, a mother, was suffering a lot.
Si Yan smiled lightly: "The servant said that His Highness the Ninth Prince will definitely be safe, and the empress is not at ease."
"Well, actually, this palace also knows that if something happens, there will definitely be an urgent letter." The concubine handed the letter to her with a wry smile, and said mockingly, "It's a mediocrity, there is nothing you can do."
Si Yan took the letter, and a court lady added a round stool for her beside the imperial concubine, she sat|opened the letter to read.
Just halfway through reading, Si Yan shivered all over her body!
Yun, Yunli... went home? !
His family will beat him to death!
Si Yan took a breath in shock, the imperial concubine who was reading Qi Guanbao's letter looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"No..." Si Yan's gaze landed on the end of the letter again. The letter stated that if there was no further letter from Yunli within five days of receiving this letter, he would send a reply to Qi Guanbao immediately.
And this letter was six or seven days late, that is to say, she should have received Yunli's letter a day or two ago.
But she didn't receive it...
"Ayan?" The imperial concubine called her, but seeing that she was silent, she stretched out her hand and took away the letter paper in her hand.
Si Yan suddenly came back to her senses, the imperial concubine frowned lightly and read the letter again, not understanding what was wrong: "What's the matter? But is there any secret?"
"Your Majesty..." She gathered herself together, knowing that it would be a long story, so she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if the servant is writing to His Highness Jiu now, when will His Highness Nine receive it at the earliest?"
"Fastest..." The imperial concubine probably made some calculations, "If it is urgent for 400 miles, it will take three or four days; if it is urgent for 800 miles, it will be one or two days."
But it's already two days late!
Si Yan quickly came up with an idea: "The servant girl will write a letter to His Royal Highness, begging the empress to send someone to send it over eight hundred miles to expedite it! Then, then..."
It is better for her to find another helper, and it is safer to have multiple paths.
Si Yan hurriedly resigned after writing the reply letter, but after thinking about it in her mind, the only "helper" she could think of was that one person.
No more options.
After much hesitation, Si Yan finally made up her mind. She gritted her teeth and walked towards Changqiu Palace, looked around at the gate of the palace, grabbed an **** casually, and stuffed Qi Guanyi's small seal over there.
"I know you have a way to find His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince. Don't disturb the empress, or you will be punished... Anyway, it's not me!"
After handing over the letter, Si Yan went back to her room and waited in fear.
Time passed by, and soon it was time for dinner. The little maid at the bottom brought food in, but she didn't feel like using it.
What if something happens to Yunli...
That was all she could think about. She felt that the relationship between Qi Guanxiu and Yunli was already tragic enough, and she couldn't imagine what would happen to Qi Guanxiu if something happened to Yunli.
Finally, she heard a knock on the door.
"Si Yan?" Qi Guanyi's voice sounded outside the door, she jumped up from the side of the couch almost instantly, and hurriedly went to open the door.
"What happened?" Qi Guanyi asked in a deep voice.
"The battle ahead is tight...His Royal Highness's letter is a few days late." Si Yanqiang made a general statement, "Something may have happened to Yunli. I, I was thinking, maybe His Highness can help?"
She thought, it will take a day or two before the reply is sent to the front line, what if Yunli's life is hanging by a thread now?
Such a concise statement is not enough for Qi Guanyi to understand the whole story, he thought about it, and asked concisely: "What do you want me to do?"
"Your Highness, can you send someone to visit his house first?" Si Yan looked at him expectantly, "He said... his family is a big family in the south, and the fifth prince's mansion should have his classics? You should be able to check it Probably?"
"A big family in the south?" Qi Guanyi pondered for a while, then said, "There's no need to check, Zhaojiang Yun's family or Qu Mingyun's family."
Si Yan:? ! * Humanities encyclopedia? !
He turned around and walked out: "Fifth brother is crazy because of an accident, I will go there myself, will you go?"
