Chapter 347 A chance encounter at the princess’s mansion
"You just have a ghost in your heart!" Chen Mingzhu couldn't tell Zhu Yixuan, she kept saying this over and over again, and even Cen Li felt that she was messing around.
Originally he could still hold it in front of Zhu Yixuan, but after being tormented by Cen Mingzhu, he felt a little shorter, so he quickly asked the maid and mother-in-law to take Cen Mingzhu back to rest.
He apologized to Zhu Yixuan and said: "That girl has been spoiled by my elder brother since she was a child. She has taken advantage of others and accepted death. Don't be as knowledgeable as her. When she goes to the border, with my elder brother watching, she will not be able to make any waves."
Zhu Yixuan shook his head humbly, "Uncle, I don't need to explain. I understand. I really didn't know she cared so much about Ke's affairs. If I knew Ke's whereabouts, I would definitely not hide it. She is just an insignificant woman. Where is it worth my attention? Now I really can’t untie her heart.”
Cen Li understood, and finally asked: "Is it true that no one knows the whereabouts of the outer room?"
Facing Cen Li's suspicious and probing eyes, Zhu Yixuan was very calm, "Yes! The Shen family should know, otherwise Mingzhu would not come to ask questions in person, but you have also seen the result. The Shen family cannot be provoked, because Mingzhu made such a fuss, Shen Yi broke up with me. Not to mention telling me Ke’s whereabouts, he wouldn’t even let me in. What could I do?”
Cen Li instantly withered, "You are right, don't worry, I will persuade that girl and won't let her continue to act recklessly."
With Zhu Yixuan's words, the things Cen Mingzhu did were more like children's nonsense. They were not only unsightly, but also annoying. Cen Li was ready to have a good chat with Cen Yingfan, and Cen Mingzhu could not be allowed to continue.
When Shen Yi received the news from the county government, he immediately asked someone to tell Su Tai and Huang Xinghua's family.
Huang Xinghua felt very relieved and repeatedly told Shen Dagou, who was about to go to the imperial capital, "You must tell your sister that that bad woman has been exiled, so that your sister can be happy."
Shen Dagou nodded repeatedly.
After busy with spring plowing, they left with the caravan.
As soon as the caravan left, Shen Yi began to gather people to prepare for the construction of the pontoon bridge.
After a winter of accumulation, they have made more than 10,000 skin bags. These skin bags have been processed twice and are stronger and more durable than the original ones.
The next step is to put these skin bags on the raft.
The damaged skin needs to be replaced later, and the raft needs to be made live to facilitate replacement from above.
These are all particular.
Shen Yi called in all the powerful craftsmen from all over the country. They brainstormed many ideas and finally wanted a segmented design that could not only flexibly replace the skin, but even the damaged wood on the bridge deck.
These are all indispensable for welded iron chains.
Su Tai can think of a way to protect the net. A thick iron chain like this needs to go through the government's clear way, otherwise it will easily arouse suspicion from others.
Bridge repair was in full swing, and Shen Dagou and his party finally arrived in the imperial capital.
There are many activities in the imperial capital in spring, including outings, flower viewing, and boating on the lake. There are scenery everywhere.
Suchuan and others were infected by this changed atmosphere, laughing and cursing all the way to the Xiji Assorted Shop.
Xiao Xi had just sent away a group of girls buying snacks, and her eyes lit up when she saw them, and she hurriedly came out to greet them, "Brother, what good stuff is this time? Do you have any jewelry?"
Suchuan raised the corner of his mouth in a funny way and said jokingly: "What? Apart from jewelry, you don't like anything else?"
"No, no. The last batch of goods was so exquisite that even the princess was alarmed and came to see the items in person. At that time, they were almost sold. Where can I show them to the princess! I can only promise again and again. , when the new batch of goods comes, notify the princess and let the princess be the first to choose.
Do you think we can offend those noble people? Especially since we made a promise, we can’t keep thinking about it! I just thought, let’s get this done quickly so that I won’t have trouble sleeping. ”
Xiao Xi frowned and said words that made other merchants jealous. When Suchuan heard this, he really didn't dare to delay and asked Su Zhan and the others to unload the valuable goods first.
Xiao Xi only took one look at it and happily asked Shen Dagou and the others to help carry the things to the princess's mansion.
After the concierge learned of their purpose, he asked them to enter through the side door.
Shen Dagou has been to the Marquis' Mansion, but he doesn't feel much about the Princess's Mansion. He just wants to get things done quickly and then go to Yong'an Marquis' Mansion.
Unexpectedly, she saw Shen Tian just as she carried her things to the backyard, "Second sister! Why are you here?"
Shen Tian came forward happily, "Brother! You have arrived in the imperial capital!"
"What are you?" Shen Dagou was happy but also confused.
Shen Tian led them to the pavilion and introduced: "Brother, this is Princess Qingfeng."
"The common people pay their respects to the princess." Shen Dagou and the other three saluted lamely.
Princess Qingfeng smiled gently and said, "Everyone, get up!"
Xiao Xigang said hurriedly: "Princess, a batch of jewelry just came to the shop today, and the common people brought it to you first."
"It's rare that you still remember, open it and show it to me!" Princess Qingfeng slowly fanned herself. She didn't have much expectations for the so-called beautiful jewelry. She has seen so many good things since she was a child, and it's hard to find anything special. into her eyes.
Shen Dagou and Song Yongnian hurriedly opened the box.
Xiao Xi took out the exquisite boxes one by one, and the first thing she opened was a pair of twelve flower hairpins. Whether it was plum blossoms in January, apricot blossoms in February, or peach blossoms in March, peonies in April, they were all exquisite, elegant and beautiful. It makes people unable to take their eyes away.
Princess Qingfeng's interest was aroused and she said: "Take out the others and show me the others."
Xiao Xi did not dare to neglect, and opened the brocade boxes one by one, and found that there was more than one set of twelve flower gods, and there were several sets of designs, all of which were different. There were also dreamy butterfly hairpins, exquisite fishtail hairpins, and pretty ginkgo hairpins, which were elegant and refined. Bamboo hairpins, and cool and noble peacock feather hairpins.
With so many beautiful things in front of her, Princess Qingfeng was in a good mood and asked Shen Tiantian to help her choose.
Shen Tian fell in love with the cardinal tail feather hosta at a glance, "This one is beautiful, simple and elegant, and it is inlaid with jasper. It is worthy of a princess."
Princess Qingfeng covered her face and chuckled, "If you said yes, it must be good, is there anything else?"
Shen Tian followed her words and chose a butterfly hairpin, a jade bamboo hairpin, and a set of twelve flower gods.
Without blinking an eye, Princess Qingfeng asked Xiao Xi to keep all those things, and also chose several hairpins.
Xiao Xi diligently kept the things and put away the rest that Princess Qingfeng picked out.
The steward took her down to check out.
Seeing this, Shen Tian stood up and said, "Princess, it's getting late. It's time for me to go back and drink medicine. I'll come back to you another day when I have the opportunity."
"You! You can come if you want. The door of my princess's mansion is open for you at any time. Let Hongqin see you off." Princess Qingfeng said in a good mood.
Shen Tian took her maid Liusu to give blessings to Princess Qingfeng, and then led Shen Dagou and the others away.
