Chapter 2 Borrowing Money

Chapter 2 Borrowing Money

Pain invaded Nightingale's body, and her head felt like it was about to explode.She slowly opened her eyes, and found that she was actually lying among the dead. If it wasn't for getting used to blood and seeing dead people, it would be really scary to be in this gloomy environment when the sky was dark.

Nightingale frowned and rubbed her temples, and crawled out from the pile of dead people, thinking that hell didn't land in a good place.At this moment, a strange memory began to flash in her mind like a movie.

After the images in her mind stopped, Nightingale looked around the surrounding environment. This was a mass grave, and the clothes on the surrounding corpses were also ancient attire.Only then did Nightingale realize that she might have time-traveled. She lowered her head to look at the clothes on her body, stroked her hair, and pinched herself. Now she was finally sure that she had time-traveled. The strange scene just now was her original body. memory.

Nightingale leaned against a tree beside her, looking at the faintly visible stars and sorting out her thoughts.Through unfamiliar memories, she knew that her current identity was Nan Mengjie, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Beisu Kingdom, but she, who was supposed to be noble, lost her mother when she was young and was not loved by her father.The only lucky thing is that she had a marriage contract with the current prince since she was a child, and she was going to get married in three months. Unfortunately, she fell into the trap of the second wife of the prime minister's mansion and the concubine Nanmengxi. After escaping from the brothel, she escaped the killer's pursuit for three days. In the end, he was still sent by the killer to drink tea with Lord Yan.

Whether Nightingale wanted it or not, she had no chance to choose.Since she has occupied this body, she will naturally seek justice for the original body, which is a kind of reward for occupying the body.

He didn't have too many regrets about Nightingale in his previous life, and his younger brother was safe.Her greatest wish is to know what Night Wolf didn't finish saying at the end.

After understanding everything, the transferred Nan Mengjie walked slowly towards the capital by herself according to the vague memory in her mind.On the way back to the capital, she also roughly summed up the situation of this era. On the mainland is the Beisu Kingdom, Nanzhou Kingdom and Ximeng Kingdom. Not much contact.

After walking slowly all night, Nan Mengjie returned to the capital in the afternoon of the second day. She is not in a hurry to return to the prime minister's mansion now, she has to wait for Nanmengxi's next plan and the prince's attitude towards this matter.The most important thing for her right now is to get rid of fatigue and hunger and live.

Nan Mengjie, who was in a mess, just staggered on the street like this, not caring about the disgusted and surprised eyes of the people around her, and squatted down against the wall when she couldn't move anymore.

"This is for you to eat for free, but you can't squat here," a man handed the steamed buns to Nan Mengjie.

Nan Mengjie looked up at the man, and then looked around. It turned out that she was leaning against the door of a restaurant.

"I'll give it back to you," Nan Mengjie picked up the steamed bun and left without looking at the man.She doesn't have the strength to look at this man now, she can only roughly remember the name of the restaurant.

Two parallel lines that can never intersect, just because of the intersection of steamed buns, the man did not expect that he would be deeply trapped in it in the future and could not extricate himself.

Holding the steamed buns, Nan Mengjie walked to a street and started to eat them. When she thought of the day when she was relying on others' charity, she laughed mockingly.

After Nan Mengjie finished eating the steamed buns, she rested on the spot for a while, regained some strength, and was about to find a place to rest. Then she regretted, why didn't she borrow some money from the man who gave her steamed buns just now?Thinking about Nan Mengjie, he tapped his head with his hand, a little annoyed at her dullness.

At this time, a carriage happened to pass by Nan Mengjie. Because the streets and alleys were relatively narrow, the carriage hung slightly and the weak Nan Mengjie fell to the ground.

"Hey, who is it?" Nan Mengjie unconsciously yelled after falling to the ground because she was thinking about something and didn't notice the carriage.

The man driving the car stopped the carriage after hearing the sound, walked quickly to Nan Mengjie and said, "Girl, are you alright?"

Nan Mengjie said without raising her head, "It's okay, but it would be best if you are willing to compensate me."

"Didn't you say it's okay? What compensation do you want?" The man asked Nan Mengjie with some doubts.

"I'm fine physically, but mentally, can you lend me 50 taels of silver?" Nan Mengjie looked up at the person standing in front of her, and found that it was a handsome man.

"Girl, are you trying to blackmail?" The man looked at Nan Mengjie in disbelief. He didn't expect that someone in the capital would dare to blackmail their carriage.

"I'm talking about borrowing, of course I will pay it back in the future, so it's blackmail. If I lie on the ground and yell that you hurt me, it's called blackmail," Nan Mengjie corrected the distorted words again.

"Is there a difference between the two?" The man looked at Nan Mengjie in a bad tone.

"Qingzhu, give her silver taels," the man's gentle voice sounded in the carriage.

"Yes," the man called Qingzhu outside the car was very respectful to the man inside.

Qingzhu took out 50 taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to Nan Mengjie. After getting the silver, Nan Mengjie stood up from the ground, patted the dust on her body and said to the carriage; I borrowed it, and I will definitely pay you back in the future.”

"No need, just treat it as compensation from me, and you don't need to pay it back," the man in the carriage had just finished speaking before Qingzhu drove away in the carriage.

Nan Mengjie played with the money in her hand, looked at the leaving carriage, and remembered this kindness in her heart, thinking that as long as there was a chance, she would definitely return the money.In the past, she always lived in other people's plans, but now she can finally live like an ordinary person according to her own ideas.

With money, Nanmengxi found a small inn, took a shower, changed into clean clothes with great effort, ate some food and went straight to sleep.

On the afternoon of the second day, Nan Mengjie finally got a good night's sleep. After washing, she stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at this new face. Her skin was fair, her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her nose was like a carved jade, her red lips were not prickly but red, and under the thick eyelashes With a pair of melancholy and deep eyes, two shallow dimples will appear when you smile slightly, like a peach blossom in full bloom.Although she doesn't have a face that is as beautiful as a fairy, it looks gentle and virtuous, with a face like a flower and a jade.

After admiring her current appearance, she began to think about her future survival.Although money is something outside the body, it is indispensable at any time.So she started planning to make money.After ordering food, she asked Xiaoer about some things.

After filling her stomach, Nan Mengjie, wearing a veil, went out and wandered in the street. After a while, she arrived at the place she was looking for. This place was Xiangjulou, where the second wife of the prime minister's mansion set up a trap to frame the real Nan Mengjie. place.Looking at the signboard of Xiangjulou, Nan Mengjie raised the corners of her mouth, and smiled cunningly. Since the original incident happened in the brothel, making money starts from the brothel.This is also where you stumble, just stand up from there.
