Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 135 Early Summer (3)

The sky was fine, and Xiao Xi'er was in a particularly good mood. Even if the annoying princess Sanata was sitting beside her, it couldn't spoil Xiao Xi'er's good mood.

So at this time, she and Wei Wei were ordered to take this Princess Sanata on a tour of Kyoto.

At the request of Princess Sanata, there was no big show of bells and drums to announce the visit to the capital this time, but Xiao Xi'er was only allowed to play with her.

Sanata took out an extremely small dagger from his waist. The metal shell and handle were inlaid with colorful jewels, which was really beautiful.Especially the big ruby ​​inlaid at the end of the handle caught the eyes of the two children, and they couldn't bear to move.

"Does it look good?" Sanata kept dangling the dagger in front of Xiao Xi'er.

Xiao Xi'er nodded, then shook her head again, raised her head stubbornly, and said "not bad" after a while.

I don't know what happened to Sanata, but when she saw Xiao Xi'er today, her attitude turned around 360 degrees, it was better than Xiao Yi's mother.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

snort!Who knows why Sanata is so nice to her all of a sudden, if there are some harmful intentions hidden behind her?

Xiao Xi'er raised her airs, turned her eyes to the scenery outside the carriage, and secretly vowed that she would never look at this dagger again if she was killed.

Sanata stretched out the dagger in front of Wei Wei again, "Does it look good?"

Wei Wei saw that Xiao Xi'er didn't look at the dagger, no matter how eye-catching the dagger was, Wei Wei still followed Xiao Xi'er's example and turned his head to look at the scenery.

Sanata stared angrily at the two small bodies, and cursed secretly: "Little poor boy."

If it weren't for the fact that this little brat might make her affairs more effective with half the effort, she wouldn't try to curry favor with such a disgusting little brat.

Suppressing his anger, Sanata laughed and said, "Xi'er, I'll see you off."

"Really?" Xiao Xi'er turned around with a look of surprise.

"Yeah, really, I'll see you off." Sanata directly stuffed the dagger into Xiao Xi'er's hand. "But this dagger, Xi'er, should be used with caution. This blade can cut iron like mud. If you don't hold one of them properly, you will hurt yourself, it will be bad."

"Well, I got it, I'm not a three-year-old doll anymore." Xiao Xi'er held the dagger, but didn't pull it out. As far as she was concerned, she liked the colorful gemstones on it more.

The corner of Sanata's mouth twitched. Is there any difference between the four and three years old?

Xiao Xi'er won the treasure, so she didn't have the intention to stare at Sanata any more, but called Wei Wei to study the dagger with her.

Sanata, on the other hand, changed her usual routine, leaning against the window of the carriage to watch the scenery outside, her black eyebrows furrowed deeply.

She has the attitude of a daughter, and she has a melancholy appearance.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, she was just beginning to fall in love, so how could she be different from other women, but she just fell in love with such a stubborn lump.

With this dagger as a 'matchmaker', the tense anger between Xiao Xi'er and Sanata gradually disappeared, and both parties forgot the previous unhappiness due to their own thoughts.

The few people wandered around the two most famous places in the capital, and Xiao Xi'er and Wei Wei also pestered Sanata to tell them the customs of Rongdi.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and Xiao Xi'er suggested that she would go back to the restaurant where she had confronted Sanata some day for dinner, and she also specified the seat she would sit on that day.

Unexpectedly, when a few people arrived at the hotel, the seat was occupied again.

Sanata and Xiao Xi'er raised their feet and wanted to go up to chase people away, but Wei Wei stopped the two of them and called Xiaoer, who just went up and said a few words, and the group of guests automatically gave up their seats.

Xiao Xi'er: "Xiao Weizi, what did that Xiao Er tell those people?"

"That's right, someday Ben... how can I scare you both." Sanata shyly glanced away, "You two won't let go."

Wei Wei took a seat proudly, and beckoned Xiao Er to quickly take away the food from the group of people on the table.

"What's so difficult about it? Not everyone in the capital is Xiao Xi'er." For ordinary diners like these, as long as they have a free meal, requests like giving up their seats are not considered requests at all.

Without waiting for them to order, someone brought a table of food to the table, making Xiao Xi'er a little confused, because she was frightened that day, and never noticed that these shop servants called Zheng Xiao his wife.

This shop is the property under the name of the Wei family.

In this era, the most common official family would have ten or twenty people including servants. How could they support so many mouths if they relied on official food alone.So this kind of family property is also the most common.

Xiao Xi'er didn't bother to care so much, anyway, her purpose of coming here was not just for eating.Looking up and looking around the hotel, Xiao Xi'er was a little bit downcast.

It seems that Mr. Mei will not come to her...

"Xiao Xi'er, come here, this is your favorite food." Wei Wei brought food to Xiao Xi'er, and Xiao Xi'er responded sullenly.

Since Sanata didn't eat it that day, as soon as the food was served, he ignored the two kids and tasted the delicacies of Kyoto on his own.

The food alone was boring, so Sanata asked the child to serve another catty of wine.

The three of them ate for a while, only to realize that the few attendants who came with them hadn't eaten yet, so they let them sit at a table to eat by themselves.Only Li Zhong, who suffered from hiding on the beam of the house, who made him a secret guard.

Li Zhong took out the dry food that he was equipped with from his waist, smelling the ubiquitous aroma of wine, he could only sigh secretly.

"Here." A plain hand holding a small jug of wine suddenly reached out to Li Zhong.

Li Zhong looked at Qiu Zhu who was sitting on the beam with him in astonishment, his mouth opened in surprise, and the dry food he had just bitten in his mouth was about to escape from the place of burial.

Qiu Zhu quickly lifted his jaw to prevent a mouthful of dry food from falling into the restaurant, frightening all the guests.

"Why are you in a daze? Ms. Kuipen really thinks that she has made another friend. Unexpectedly, it has been a few days. I have been waiting for you here every day, but finally I waited for you, but you saw me unexpectedly Not happy at all, hum! Miss Ben is gone, don't stay here to hinder your eyes."

Qiu Zhu made a gesture to leave, but Li Zhong grabbed her.

"No, I... I'm happy... I..."

"Really?"

"Well, really, I'm really happy."

"Then you don't smile at all."

"Laughing?" Li Zhong tugged at the corners of his mouth and managed to pull out a smile.

Seeing his smirk, Qiu Zhu burst into a chuckle, and stopped fussing with him, but asked why he stayed here?
Li Zhong could only simplify his identity a little bit, a secret guard, earning some money to support himself.

Qiu Zhu expressed his understanding. After all, she is a child of the world, and she has seen and heard a lot of things. She just expressed a little pity for Li Zhong, because in this situation, he can only hide and eat by himself. Dry food, but still be tempted by a bunch of delicious food and wine.

Qiu Zhu lowered his head to look at the position of the master that Li Zhongfang pointed out in the lobby of the restaurant, "It seems that they still have a while, come, take it, and wait for me."

The jug was stuffed into Li Zhong's hand, Qiu Zhu strode across the beams and jumped into a private room.

Looking at the private room, Li Zhong frowned, as if he vaguely saw another figure in the private room.

Not long after, Qiu Zhu brought a whole roast chicken.

"Come on, don't eat this dry food. Miss Ben treats you to roast chicken today. Smell it, doesn't it smell delicious?"

Qiu Zhu held the grilled chicken up to Li Zhong's nose, and the tempting aroma aroused the glutton in Li Zhong's stomach, and he knocked on the food and played music.

"En." Li Zhong glanced down and saw that Xiao Xi'er was still eating hard, so he was relieved to accept Qiu Zhu's kindness.

"Xiaozhu, thank you." Since he became a qualified secret guard at the age of fifteen or sixteen, he has never had a formal meal when he was on a mission... The last time was just like this time, it was purely accidental.

Li Zhong, immersed in the unexpected surprise, subconsciously ignored the faint figure just now.

In the private room, Mei Qing tasted the special dishes of this restaurant calmly, but he only added the essence of each dish, and the "essence" was what Wei Wei gave Xiao Xi'er that day. 'Essence'.

After Mei Qing took a few sips of each dish, she put down her chopsticks and drank a cup of tea.

As long as he leans forward a little, he can see the two people on the beams when he looks up.He has repeatedly explained to Qiu Zhu that it is fine to make friends, but she must not mention the matter of her brother, and even him, don't casually talk about it.

After drinking all the tea, Mei Qing came to the window and stood there for a while, seeing the little girl in the hall eating and not forgetting to look around, he couldn't help laughing.

He knew that Xiao Xi would definitely come here again, because he hadn't fulfilled his promise to her.

Mei Qing left the private room and put on a veil to completely cover her upper body.It was a mistake, so he specially asked Miss Lin'er to prepare this veil.

Coming down from the private room on the second floor, Mei Qing went to the front desk to pay the bill.

Accountant: "Objectively, the total is 15 taels of silver."

Mei Qing gave the money and asked the accountant where the latrine was. He suddenly had a stomachache, and following the accountant's guidance, Mei Qing entered the inner hall.He just walked to the front of the hut, and hid in a corner beside him.

Sure enough, Xiao Xi'er also followed.

Xiao Xi'er tiptoed to look into the hut, muttering: "It must be him, I can't be mistaken, Mr. Mei? Mr. Mei! Mr. Mei."

Just now, Xiao Xi'er was eating, her big eyes were still looking around non-stop, and she really caught a glimpse of a person wearing a veil who paid the bill. The reason why she was sure that this person was Mei Qing was because of the waist of a big man like him. There was actually a monkey head mask hanging on it, which was exactly the same as the one she had bought before.

When she saw this man enter the inner hall, she decisively followed him in the name of going to the toilet.

Boom!A monkey mask was thrown to the ground.

Xiao Xi'er excitedly picked up the monkey head mask, and hurriedly looked at the place where the mask was thrown just now, but there was no one there.

Xiao Xi'er held up the monkey head mask in her hand in frustration, and was about to put the mask on, when she saw a few lines of small characters written on the mask, she smiled knowingly.

Throwing the mask on the ground on the spot, he jumped on his calf and trampled the mask of the monkey head mercilessly.

Xiao Xi'er turned around and was about to go back to the lobby. She walked back to the shattered mask worryingly. Regardless of how dirty the mask was stepped on, she squatted down and picked up the shattered mask in her arms, and then threw the mask into the The cesspit, she was completely relieved.
