Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 56 Plot

Lin Zisu said, and was about to leave the warehouse. She made up her mind that she really couldn't stay with someone like Xie Xi, and she didn't know how she would be entangled with her later. There was wind under her feet as she walked, three steps and two steps.

As he walked to the secret door, Lve Ying carefully reminded: "Miss, your hair hasn't been fixed yet..."

Lin Zisu then remembered that she still had messy hair on her head and couldn't go out to meet people. She arranged her clothes casually, combed her hair with her hands, pushed all the hair on her cheeks behind her ears, and tidied it up consciously.

Almost the same, he raised his gaze and asked Lve Ying.

The beautiful scenery in front of him suddenly changed. Xie Xi was very dissatisfied and said, "Is there anything to clean up? Haven't you seen everything?" Then he saw Yang Xingyao stood up and asked again: "Do you think so, Prince Yang?"

When Yang Xingyao heard Xie Xi calling him, he smiled and said: "Your Highness, you damaged Miss Lin's things, but you have to pay according to the price."

As he spoke, he walked forward, and when he saw Lve Ying leaning down to pick up the butterfly that fell on the ground, he quickly stopped him and said, "Lve Ying, go ahead and talk to the manager about picking out some suitable ones."

Let your girl use the jewelry first."

Xie Xi lowered his head and looked at the silver step rocker under his feet. Silver was originally soft, so he accidentally stepped on it again, turning the butterfly with wings spread on the step rocker into a leaf. He saw that it could no longer be used. Listen to Yang Xingyao

He wanted to give Lin Zisu jewelry as a gift. Xie Xi felt angry for no reason and said, "The prince is right. Since I damaged Miss Lin's jewelry, I will naturally pay the price..."

Originally, Xie Xi wanted to compensate her according to the price, but suddenly he remembered that the steps under his feet were really shabby, worse than what the girls in his own house were wearing, so he added: "I will naturally compensate her with some better jewelry."

Yang Xingyao said with a smile: "Your Highness, I am talking about this wooden ladder, not Miss Lin's jewelry. She is the new owner of this silver building. Do you still need us to worry about how many pieces of jewelry are used by shopkeeper Lin?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Zisu and Xie Xi were both surprised.

Xie Xi understood it immediately and said sourly: "If I had known that your prince had such intentions, why would I have bothered with it?"

Lin Zisu returned home with a full harvest from her career in the silver industry. When she returned home, she had a gold hairpin with a lotus pattern on her head and a jade-inlaid gold hairpin on her head, and a pair of jade bracelets on her hands, all of which were common jewelry on the market.

Lin Zisu was so angry that she stepped forward to snatch the book and shouted in a low voice: "Why did you come to my house again!"

Seeing his young lady coming over, Wang Qingsheng stood up and bowed, smiled at Lin Zisu and said: "Miss, the eldest son went out early in the morning and still mentioned you, saying that this thing is almost done, and he must show it to you.

All at once.”

Lin Zisu was shocked and was about to shout loudly when she turned around and saw Xie Xi. There was a red mark on Zhang Jun's face, which was the injury he suffered during the day.

Then I remembered all the rudeness he had towards me and broke into my study at this time, and my face suddenly darkened again.

Wang Qingsheng scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Yes, it's a seven-wheel fan. The young master is stupid. The eldest son told the young master several times, but he finally didn't remember it."

Lin Zisu ignored Wang Qingsheng and studied the seven-wheel fan carefully. The drawing he drew that day was just for fun, so he envisioned the actual object to be two feet high and three feet in circumference.

Lin Zisu had never thought about this problem, and there was no good solution for a while. The brother and sister discussed some details in detail, and did not give up until the sky was completely dark.

Lin Zizhu hesitated for a moment, then took the bracelet.

However, Mrs. Huang kept her eyes on the jewelry box. Seeing that Lin Zisu had no intention of opening the box, she curled her lips and said, "You are all busy people and don't even have time to say a word. Go ahead, go ahead."

, I still have to teach this girl Zi Zhu."

In this way, it is easy to think about why the two bags of grain appeared behind him at the right time. It was because Xie Xi suddenly realized his conscience after doing something wrong and found two bags of grain for himself to carry on his back.

When she trotted all the way to Tiangongyuan, Lin Wenjing hadn't returned from school yet, and the seven-wheel fan had already begun to take shape.

"What did you do to her?" Lin Zisu took a step back and asked with a vigilant look on her face.

Xie Xi held Lin Zisu's wrist with a red mark. The bracelets were originally used for shielding, but now they were taken off. In order to prevent Huang from discovering the abnormality on her hands, she had to close her sleeves without leaving any trace.

, said: "Second Aunt, I still have something to do in the yard, so I will leave first."

Yang Xingyao said calmly: "Miss Lin has a heavy responsibility. She needs to be careful in everything and not be too conspicuous. But Miss Lin knows what she is doing. Even if I don't arrange it, I believe she has her own sense of proportion."

Lin Zisu smiled and said: "Aren't you going to Prince Wei's Mansion in a few days? I just selected a few pieces of jewelry. It doesn't matter whether you like them or not, as long as you can take them out to meet people."

Seeing Lian Ying holding a jewelry box in his hand, Huang hurriedly walked closer with Lin Zizhu, and asked with a smile: "Sister, have you just come back from outside? I heard your mother said that you went to the street to choose jewelry, did you find anything you like?

?”

Because the seven wooden pieces on top were too heavy, Lin Zisu fiddled hard to turn the fan blades.

Oh? It seems that her brother has a new idea. Lin Zisu is a little anxious and wants to see how her brother can make this seven-wheel fan move on its own.

Huang said: "Your second sister is going to go there that day. I'm afraid that she will lose the face of our house. I have a headache right now. I don't know what styles are popular in the capital."

At this time in the past, Wang Qingsheng had already driven a carriage to pick up his young master. Today, he received Lin Wenjing's instructions and no longer had to go to the mansion to study.

She cursed Xie Xi a few times in her mind, and then vaguely remembered that something seemed wrong about her fall in the silver building.

Why is this Xie Xi so haunted?

Xie Xi didn't seem to take the hurt on his face to heart. He smiled and sat in front of the desk where Lin Zisu had just been sitting. He was flipping through the "Miscellaneous Notes of You Meng" in his hand. He saw Lin Zisu turn around.

He raised his head and said with a smile: "Su Su, I didn't expect you to read such miscellaneous books."

Lin Zisu thanked her, and went up the stairs with Lve Ying and out of the secret door. Xie Xi picked up the silver walking stick at his feet, held it in his hand and looked at it for a few moments, then coldly snorted: "Your Majesty, you have such good intentions.

Even the jewelry I have prepared has been carefully selected and is neither expensive nor ugly when worn."

Lin Zizhu had just turned twelve years old and was described as petite. She was often scolded by the Huang family and developed a timid character. Seeing that her sister kept shrinking back, Lin Zisu frowned and took off the clothes on her hands.

The jade bracelet was handed to Lin Zizhu and said: "Second sister, I see that your wrist is empty. You can wear these bracelets from now on."

The heat invaded the room through Xiangfei's curtain. Although the sun was in the west, the room was still a little hot.

As she spoke, she secretly pushed Lin Zizhu in front of her and said, "How do you say you are Zizhu's eldest sister? You might as well check the details for her."

"Your Highness, you have wronged me. I have never had any other thoughts towards Miss Lin. I just want to repay her for saving her life." Yang Xingyao shook his hand and asked with a smile: "However, I heard that Your Highness hides his beauty in the golden house and the oiran at home is thin.

You have everything you need, but you still want to take advantage of Miss Lin?"

After Lin Wenjing finished speaking, he was very proud, with a proud look on his face, waiting for Lin Zisu's praise.

"Are you asking how I got in? When I arrived at your house, I saw your study door was open, so I walked in by myself."

When Lin Zisu and Lian Ying turned around through the hanging arch door, Huang said to Lin Zizhu with a look of disdain: "Hmph, your eldest sister is so stingy. She must have a lot of jewelry in that box, but she just gave you this."

A pair of stone bracelets, you should go to her place more often these days to see what treasures she has!"

She took a long nap comfortably in her room. When she woke up, it was past midnight, and the shadow of the sun left ink marks of varying depths on the ground.

Lin Wenjing was very satisfied and clicked his chin several times. Then, with a hint of frustration on his face, he said, "Unfortunately, this fan blade is too heavy and heavy. No matter how many axles there are, it can't rotate too fast."

Lin Zisu got up and sat in the room for a while. A thin layer of sweat broke out on the back of her neck. She picked up the round fan on the table and fanned it casually a few times. She remembered the seven-wheel fan that her brother was making.

I was immediately interested.

"Mongolian sweat medicine!"

However, the actual object made by Lin Wenjing was obviously slightly different from his drawings. The seven-wheeled fan was about four feet high. Below it was a large wooden barrel with a circumference of nine feet. A round wooden stick was inserted on it.

Seven round wood pieces are inserted evenly to make fan blades.

Lin Zisu hurriedly asked what happened. Lin Wenjing opened the wooden tube under the seven-wheel fan, pointed to a wooden round box at the bottom, and said: "I added this mechanism here, and the mechanism is connected to the wheel axle.

I put all the seven axles in your picture into this tube, and as long as the mechanism is tightened, the fan blades above will rotate on their own."

Lin Zisu was a little discouraged and sighed. Wang Qingsheng saw that she was in a bad mood and said: "The eldest young master said that in your drawings, miss, it requires the help of water so that the blades of this seven-wheel fan can move on their own.

Get up, this is the one in front of you, he added some mechanisms below, it doesn’t require water.”

Seeing the scars on Xie Xi's face, Lin Zisu smiled at first.

While talking, Lv Ying came over with a jewelry box. Lin Zisu opened it and looked at it. There were dozens of pieces of jewelry inside, including gold, jade, and jade.

As soon as she returned to the courtyard in the evening, Lin Zisu flipped through the books in her small study, found the "Miscellaneous Notes of You Meng" and read it again.

Xie Xi smiled evilly and said, "Miss Lin, how about you give it a try?"

Lin Zisu had never seen Yang Xingyao mention the store since she declined it at Princess Nankang's Mansion. She thought the matter was over, but she didn't expect that today he would suddenly bring it up again and hurriedly declined: "

Prince Yang, your consultation fee has already been paid, I will never accept it from this bank!"

Lin Zisu secretly laughed in her heart, and twisted the mechanism a few times, and when she let go, the fan blades on it started to rotate slowly. Lin Zisu hurriedly praised: "Brother, you are so smart, even such a complicated design

I can think of it too."

Lin Zisu also smiled and said: "I will teach you how to be smart. This is called the Seven-wheel Fan. You have to follow big brother all day long, so you have to remember it clearly."

Yang Xingyao saw that the jewelry prepared by the steward was not expensive, but was exquisitely made, just in line with his own wishes, so he said to Lin Zisu: "Miss Lin, there is a room specifically for girls to dress up in the silver building. You can do it right now."

Let's go there with Lian Ying."

She and Lve Ying had just entered the backyard when they met Mr. Huang and Lin Zizhu passing by the door.

Yang Xingyao seemed to have seen Lin Zisu's thoughts and said with a smile: "Miss Lin, don't be polite. There is a saying that 'it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide charcoal when the time is right'. I heard that there are guests from far away in your house, and now is the time to spend money. This

Although the monthly income from the bank and the grain store is meager, it is more than enough to support the household expenses. The stewards here are all old people who I have used for many years. You don’t have to worry about business matters, just be a safe and sound shopkeeper. "

Lin Zisu stayed in Tiangongyuan for about a stick of incense when he saw Lin Wenjing running over, sweating profusely. Lin Zisu looked distressed and was about to take out his sweat towel to replace it.

He wiped his sweat, but Lin Wenjing said happily: "Sister, I thought of a way to make this seven-wheel fan rotate on its own."

He stayed at the Tiangongyuan all day, polishing several small wooden components according to Lin Wenjing's request.

Lin Zisu was confused, wasn't there Lian Ying guarding the door? Why didn't she hear any movement?

Xie Xi saw what she was thinking and said with a smile: "That girl of yours named Lve Ying is pretty good at martial arts, but unfortunately she is just a fool. I have no choice but to resort to extreme means."

What on earth is Xie Xi going to do? Even though she has already agreed to cooperate with him, she wants to do this again?

Lin Zisu was a little confused about Xie Xi's thoughts, so she stopped thinking about it at the moment. Xie Xi was still begging her, so why bother with this irrelevant person?

Lin Zisu had no idea that she was already worried about Mrs. Huang. She had just returned to the house, found some anti-swelling ointment and applied it on her wrist. There was still a slight pain in her wrist.

There was a gentle breeze outside the window, and there was already some coolness. She was about to ask the silhouette outside the door to prepare water for herself to take a bath, when she saw a long and narrow figure suddenly appeared under the shadow of the lamp.

After thinking about the cause and effect, and then recalling Yang Xingyao's words about asking Xie Xi to compensate him according to the price, it became immediately clear that Xie Xi must have tampered with the ladder.

The second watch drum sounded outside, and Lin Zisu began to feel sleepy. She yawned and got up and stood at the window for a while.

Xie Xi was even more unhappy. He put the step into his sleeve and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, you have someone in your heart. I have just finished planning for you. Do you still want to eat from the bowl and look at the pot?

"

Seeing that Lin Zisu was about to go out to check, Xie Xi stood up and stopped her, saying, "Those girls of yours were just stunned by me. They will wake up after pouring a bowl of cold water on their faces."

Lin Zisu was slightly relieved after hearing that Lv Ying and the others were fine.

This was not the first time she had interacted with Xie Xi. She knew that he came and went like the wind. If he wanted to come to her, she would never be able to stop him. She said calmly: "Your Majesty came here uninvited. What's his plan?"

Xie Xi smiled and said, "Didn't I damage one of your jewelry during the day? Of course I'm here to apologize to you."
