Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 196 Purchasing Huajian Carp

Chapter 196 Purchasing Huajian Carp

Before evening, the entire land turned into polar night under heavy dark clouds. Heavy rain poured down between the cities. No pedestrians could be seen on the avenues, only a criss-cross pattern of street lights could be seen.

Zuo Lingquan took a painted boat and came to the sky above Donghua City. He was afraid of scaring the people, so he flew through the streets without much fanfare. He didn't fall from the clouds until he reached Fuyan Palace.

Fuyan Palace is Jiang Yi's bedroom. Because she has not yet officially married, the palace is still preserved, and the palace residents live in it to keep the palace clean and tidy.

The heavy rain poured down, and the boat fell silently, without disturbing the palace maid.

Jiang Yi walked out of the cabin and saw the familiar residence. She felt a bit like "going back to her parents' home". However, it was hard for her to say this, so she said with some discomfort:

"I used to think this place was quite big. After living in Taifei Palace for a while, when I came back, I felt that this place had become smaller."

The size of the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty is estimated to be more than ten times that of Donghua City; the imperial city is similar. The old city where the Crown Princess lives alone is estimated to be three times larger than the Great Dan Imperial City. In comparison, Jiang Fuyan Palace, where Yi lives, naturally looks like a small door.

Leng Zhu held an oil-paper umbrella and sighed: "No matter how small I am, this is my own home. I feel much more comfortable living here. I can still be regarded as the steward of the palace. In the Dowager Palace, everyone has to call me sister, but it suffocates me." .”

"How about you stay in the palace to look after the house from now on?"

"ah?"

Leng Zhu's expression froze, and he glanced at Zuo Lingquan secretly. He wanted to say, 'The prince-in-law has already seen me through, and I have to take responsibility.'

But after saying this, she might actually stay and watch, so she giggled:

"I am a palace maid, and my duty is to serve the princess. Wherever the princess is, I will naturally be there. I will inform the palace people, the princess will wait a moment."

After saying that, he jumped off the boat with his head down and ran towards the outside of the palace.

Zuo Lingquan understood the thoughts of the maid who accompanied him on the bed, and raised the corners of his lips and smiled; but Jiang Yi also understood the thoughts of the personal maid, and looked at him with slightly narrowed eyes.

"cough--"

Zuo Lingquan put away his smile, acted like nothing happened, and looked back at the cabin.

Wu Qingwan bent through the carved wooden door of the cabin, opened a flower umbrella, covered her and Tang Jingxuan's heads, and said:

"It's getting dark. I'll go back to Qihuang Valley tomorrow. You guys go and check the situation first."

Tang Jingxun also wanted to go back to Linhefang to see if her property had been occupied by the Chen family. However, the situation outside was unknown, and it was not good for her to do personal matters at this time. She didn't say much and got off the boat with Wu Qingwan.

However, before Wu Qingwan jumped off the deck, she glanced at Zuo Lingquan secretly, which meant something inexplicable, and she was obviously hinting at something.

Zuo Lingquan understood this and sent Jiang Yi off the deck under an umbrella, and then walked outside the palace city together.

Tuanzi stayed on the ship for two days and was fed by Shangguan Lingye. Even if he didn't like sports, he would have been so suffocated that he jumped from Tang Jingxun's chest to Jiang Yi's shoulders.

————

Due to a strange phenomenon, the acting sect master of Qihuang Valley sent another message to the court. The emperors and generals in the Great Dan Court were a little panicked, and the court held meetings day and night to discuss the situation in various places.

Hearing that the eldest princess suddenly returned to the court, the young emperor and the courtiers became more energetic. However, because they had returned to power and returned to power, they broke the etiquette by coming to the court and gesticulating. The officials did not invite Jiang Yi to come over, but only asked Zuo Hanchou to come and greet her. .

The third uncle, Zuo Hanchou, has become a minister and is half the king. Because the young emperor's ability to govern is not yet mature, he has been worried about it for the past few days. He has not slept much for two days.

As soon as Zuo Lingquan accompanied Jiang Yi to the corridor of the side hall of the square, he saw Zuo Hanchou, who was wearing a prime minister's robe, standing on the eaves Low Grade looking a little tired, chatting with his subordinates.

"Third uncle!"

Zuo Lingquan naturally missed the relatives he hadn't seen in half a year and quickly said hello.

Jiang Yi once again acted like the eldest princess in the past, but facing Zuo Lingquan's elders, she always felt a little embarrassed as a young daughter-in-law meeting her parents, so she didn't say anything and followed behind silently.

Zuo Hanchou turned around and saw the two people approaching, his expression was happy, but he immediately frowned and said:

"You are neither old nor young, how can you let Her Royal Highness the Princess walk behind and forget all the rules after being out for half a year? Her Royal Highness Princess, don't blame me, it's the humble minister who failed to teach my nephew well and neglected the Princess..."

Zuo Lingquan had been out running for so long that he had forgotten all these worldly understandings, so when he saw this, he walked behind Jiang Yi again.

Zuo Hanchou was always tactful as an official, and his words were obviously meant to compliment the princess, but Jiang Yi heard them. She smiled:

"You don't have to be so panicked, Prime Minister Zuo. When a woman marries, she follows her husband. I won't handle the government affairs on my behalf anymore. Just treat me as a junior."

"No, the fact that the princess can marry my Zuo family is a blessing earned by the Zuo family for eight lifetimes. If I am ungrateful..."

Jiliguala...

After Jiang Yi saw Zuo Lingquan's extraordinary achievements in spiritual practice, she felt that she had picked up a genius husband-in-law for nothing, and it was almost as good as Zuo Lingquan to marry her. Listening to a lot of flattering words, she was so embarrassed that she asked:

"Without these kind words, how is the situation outside?"

Zuo Hanchou knew that when the two came back, they must be worried about Dadan's safety, so he said:

"Most of them are fine. There are a few county towns that are making trouble, but the scale is not large. There are many ferocious beasts running out of Evergreen Mountain, and the ones that fly to the sky and escape from the ground are really powerful. The big ones are stopped by Qihuang Valley, and there are only a few small beasts. I jumped into the suburbs of the capital, and the arrest department is searching day and night, nothing else is going on..."

Zuo Lingquan listened quietly and asked: "What is the situation in the four southern counties?"

"The news has been sent urgently from eight hundred miles over there. There is no big problem, but the sea water has become hot for some reason, and dead fish have directly blocked the coast and the entrance to the sea. Your second uncle's fleet does not dare to leave the port, and it is probably going to die, cough ...It's too far away. Then there was a sudden heavy rain. There is already a lot of rain in the south, so flood prevention is no problem, but many houses have collapsed. Your father has already started to open warehouses to store grain. It will be no problem to survive this winter, but I'm afraid. The weather is too abnormal, affecting next spring planting and autumn harvest, leading to famine..."

After Zuo Hanchou carefully described the situation in various places, he asked Zuo Lingquan about his current situation. After learning from Jiang Yi's mouth that Zuo Yunting had made a glorious statement about the "Two Heroes of the Zuo Family, Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix" outside, he didn't believe it at all, bowed down and returned to the main hall to wait for the latest news.

After Jiang Yi heard about the situation in various parts of the Great Dan Dynasty, it was hard to imagine that this was just caused by a fight between a few people on the mountain. After watching her third uncle leave, she said:

"The immortals and demons on the top of the mountain burned the mountains and boiled the sea. I wonder if they knew how many mortals suffered for this, and how many people racked their brains to deal with the mess they left behind. No wonder the Nine Sects restricted the monks on the top of the mountain from interfering with the mortals at will. , if no one takes care of it, I can’t even imagine what it would be like.”

Zuo Lingquan also felt the same way: "So the ancestor Shangguan is still very powerful, well... if there is no Shangguan Yutang in the world, I don't know how many people call it Immortal Emperor, and how many people call it Immortal King. There is no benefit to being overbearing and powerful."

"Hmph~ When you can do this, you will be really awesome."

"hehe……"

——

After a brief exchange with the officials of the Great Dan Dynasty, Jiang Yi did not return to the palace.

Jiang Yi likes seeing to be believed, and goes out of the palace with Zuo Lingquan to see the situation in the market.

Although it was extremely dark, it was not too late. Xinghua Street, the most prosperous street, was still full of music and singing, and drunken young men could be seen everywhere.

Zuo Lingquan helped Jiang Yi hold a red oil-paper umbrella and walked around on the street.

Tuanzi returned to Donghua City, where he grew up since he was a child, and was a little excited when he saw the familiar street scene. He couldn't fly around in heavy rain, so he squatted on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder, screaming "Gujiji~Gujiji~" , it sounds like 'red umbrella, white group...'.

Although it has only been half a year, Jiang Yi feels that it can be described as 'like a lifetime away', walking slowly along the street with her chest in her arms, Ru Xing's eyes are slightly engrossed, recalling the days and nights of her private visits in micro-services.

Because both of them have to continue to practice, it is difficult to improve if they stay in the Dandan where opportunities are scarce, and the stay will not be too long, and sooner or later they will leave with Shangguan Lingye.

Jiang Yi has had a lot of contact with Shangguan Lingye in the past few months. Although he is used as a free labor force, he has received a lot of training resources. At this time, I walked for a while in the streets of my hometown, got some thoughts, and said:

"Emperor Dowager Dayan has been helping us all the time, and this time she is running back and forth for us. Do I have to prepare some gifts or something? But we can't give money to the gods, let alone the treasures of heaven and earth. I feel so embarrassed... "

Tuanzi chirped, saying "It's okay. Birdie will stay with the wet nurse from now on." Unfortunately, the two of them couldn't understand.

Zuo Lingquan also felt that he should be thanked and responded:

"Prepare some souvenirs. The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy."

"What local specialties do we have in Dadan? Can't we give away a few native chickens?"

"I'm afraid the native chicken is not suitable..."

The phoenix originated from the Dan cave in Antarctica. Dadan's specialty is actually dumplings, but not many people know about it, and even if they know, they can't give it away.

Because the supplies were so scarce, the Great Yan Dynasty had better things that the two of them could think of, and they felt a little worried for a while.

Zuo Lingquan walked for a long time, and gradually came to the "Xianzhizhai" in the middle of Xinghua Street, and then he had an idea:

"Red nectar rouge seems to be a specialty of the four southern counties. I have never seen it in the Great Yan Dynasty."

Jiang Yi rolled her eyes: "The Princess is naturally beautiful. She doesn't need any makeup or powder. She never uses these."

But she wears a bellyband!

Zuo Lingquan had seen Shangguan Lingye's apron embroidered with white cats. The fabric might be the best in the world, but the style was a bit conservative, and it didn't go well with the big and soft white dumplings.

However, he definitely didn’t dare to give Grandma Shangguan a bellyband again, and it was hard to say clearly at the moment.

Fortunately, Jiang Yi's mind was quick and she quickly thought of another specialty of Xianzhizhai. Her face turned slightly red, she turned around and walked into the three-story building and said:

"Go in and take a look, maybe you'll find something you like."

Zuo Lingquan knew it well, so he followed in, but he also had other plans in mind--Wanwan's aprons have been worn for half a year, and she has nowhere to buy and wear them. He will only wear it when he comes out, and the color scheme is too monotonous. Playing the role of a female master who is forced to be humiliated, it should be more dignified black, but there is no such thing as Wanwan’s little treasure chest, so I have to buy another one. A dozen pieces.

Jiang Yi will not be missing from now on, a dozen items may not be enough...

There's still...

Because it was raining heavily on the street, there were not many customers in Xianzhizhai, and the waiters were standing around to rest.

Zuo Lingquan put away his umbrella and entered the lobby with Jiang Yi. The eyes of the female shopkeeper who was standing behind the counter to settle accounts lit up and she said directly:

"Hey, you're a rare guest, Mr. Zuo, please come in quickly..."

? !

When Jiang Yi heard this enthusiastic address, her smiling expression was congealed—Xianzhizhai is all for women, and the male customers who came here also bought things for women. It has been half a year and I still remember Zuo Lingquan...

Jiang Yi glanced at Zuo Lingquan:

"You're quite familiar with me? We've been here a lot before, right?"

Zuo Lingquan didn’t expect the landlady’s memory to be so good, he said with a smile:

"Didn't you buy Rouge and Huajian Carp for the princess before? Isn't it strange to know them?"

Jiang Yi was skeptical - Zuo Lingquan only bought her rouge and a bellyband once; the proprietress looked at the God of Wealth in the same way as she was facing an ordinary customer.

Seeing the landlady coming over, Jiang Yi didn't think much and said:

"Shopkeeper, are there any new styles of Red Flower Honey and Huajian Carp recently?"

"Yes, there is nothing in our store that customers can't even think of, and there is nothing they can't buy."

The landlady walked in front, taking the familiar Zuo Lingquan to the second floor, and looked at Jiang Yi in a blink of an eye:

"Who is this?"

"I am his wife."

"oh……"

The landlady looked at Zuo Lingquan again with an inexplicable smile:

"Master Zuo still wants that kind of... hmm?"

Zuo Lingquan knew that the landlady wanted to be "sexy", so he quickly answered:

"It's better looking, don't worry about the price."

The boss lady understood, "Understood! Our embroiderer has recently designed a new model, which is called 'killing a man in three steps'. The young master must be satisfied..."

Jiang Yi's eyes were a little suspicious, and she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't find any actual clues, so she didn't say much at the moment...
