Chapter 38 Huo Sijiu

Su Mo didn't want a first-class room. She was traveling alone as a woman, and she was in a strange place, so she was too ostentatious to attract attention.

The room is not very big. When entering the door, there is a screen blocking the line of sight. Bypassing the screen, a wooden bed is located on the right side of the room, with the window in the middle.

On the left side is a bathtub, and a small screen is placed between the two, on which you can put your changed clothes on when you take a bath.

Opposite the bed and next to the large screen is a square table. The white porcelain carved long-necked vase on the table supports a bunch of budding roses, adding some bright colors to the slightly humble house.

"Bang bang bang..."

There was a knock on the door outside the house, Su Mo put the burden on the bed, walked around the screen to the door, and pushed the door open.

The man raised his hand slightly: "Ma'am, what you want."

"Thank you so much." Su Mo thanked the staff and took the wooden tray.

"You're being polite, as it should be."

It is natural to do things properly with money, the man bowed and said respectfully:

"The things have been delivered, the younger ones will leave first."

Su Mo nodded, and closed the door with her elbow with her things in hand, walked around the screen, and put the wooden plate on the table.

There were two bowls on the wooden tray, one filled with water and the other filled with flour.

Su Mo took off the wooden branch from the ear hole, took the water into a bowl filled with flour, kneaded a dough ball, and pressed it into the ear hole.

The ear hole was quickly filled with flour, Su Mo wiped off the excess flour, took out a piece of yellow mud from the bundle, moistened it with water, and dabbed it on the flour in the ear hole.

I took a photo on the water, and the pierced ears were no longer obvious.

Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and found out the men's clothing. She had already changed the clothes when she was on the boat, and she will change them now, and tied her hair up again.

The delicate and beautiful lady suddenly became a deserted and handsome gentleman.

It's just ashamed to say that she caught game four or five times with the traps set by the system, but she didn't save even half a penny.

The expenses of the three children in the family are all second. The main reason is that she eats three or four bowls of rice at a time. If the physical exertion is too great, she has to add another bowl. The rice in the family is really not enough.

If it hadn't been for killing some money from Mrs. Wang, the travel expenses and accommodation expenses to Fuzhou would be a problem.

She put the money into her bosom, walked out when there were few people in the aisle, then went downstairs and left the inn.

It was the first time for Su Mo to go shopping in two lifetimes, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious. He stopped and stopped all the way, and when he reached the East Street that the buddy had mentioned, the sky was getting dark.

Lanterns on the side of the street have been hung high, and the entire street lining is brightly lit.

Different from other crowded and bustling streets, this street is quite quiet. Because there are no stalls, the road looks very spacious.

Many carriages passed by slowly, except for Orion who was pushing a cart with fur goods on it. Those who walked alone like Su Mo were a bit different.

Fortunately, Su Mo's heart is quite strong. She looked at the open shop door on the street, and all kinds of fur came into view.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, straightened her slightly messy hair, and wiped off the sweat from her forehead, then picked a shop and went in.

The original body's appearance was outstanding, and she was a daughter of a thousand gold since she was a child, and had received formal education.

Wearing men's clothing now, she has a straight figure, her desolate brows and eyes are full of alienation, and there is an innate dignity in her gestures and gestures.

Rao is a well-informed guy, but he was also deceived by Su Mo's appearance.

"What does this young man need?"

Su Mo lowered her voice, but her voice changed.

"I'll just look around, you don't have to follow."

The clerk met a lot of customers every day, so naturally he would not be offended, he bowed his head to respond, and moved to the side, but his eyes were always on Su Mo.

Su Mo ignored it and walked around the shop on her own, listening to the transactions of other customers around her, secretly estimating the price in her heart.

The man observed for a long time, and saw that Su Mo didn't seem to have any plans to buy, so he rested his mind, and when other guests came in, he resolutely stopped staring.

Su Mo took the opportunity to leave, repeated his old tricks, and went to other shops on East Street to get a general idea of ​​the market.

The tiger skin is so rare that I haven't seen it in the whole East Street, and I don't know if it really doesn't exist, or it's kept in it and hasn't been released.

Just when Su Mo was about to leave, the clerks in the shop suddenly got busy. Someone moved a wooden box from the backyard, put it on the counter, and opened it. It was a tiger skin, but it looked smaller, like a baby. Tiger's.

Su Mo suddenly changed his mind, turned around and moved to the side, not long after, seven or eight servants walked in surrounded by a young man.

The young man was dressed in a crescent-colored satin shirt, with auspicious clouds outlined in gold thread, and a fine suet jade pendant hung around his waist.

The cheeks are slightly rounded, adding a bit of childishness, the lips are red and the teeth are white, and the eyes are frivolous, carrying the arrogance and pampering unique to the children of the aristocratic family.

The shopkeeper waited early, and greeted people flatteringly when he saw them coming.

"Young Lord, we have found what you want."

Huo Sijiu raised her head slightly, glanced at him, and said "um" in a nasal voice.

Just walking over to take a look, he frowned immediately, and the servants following him immediately understood.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Just take out this kind of junk?
Eat bear heart leopard gall, right? "

The shopkeeper was slightly startled, and quickly explained with a smile:
"I'm wronged, since the arrival of the black armored guards, the Huzhou government has been heavily guarded, and many of my goods have been blocked outside.

You are so urgent, I have already wasted a lot of effort to find this tiger skin..."

As he said that, the shopkeeper's eyes flickered, and he slowly raised his head, looking at Huo Sijiu boldly.

"Young Lord, how could Commander Gu of the Black Armored Guards sell Prince Jing's mansion a face.

If you are really in a hurry, you might as well open your mouth, my batch is at the northwest gate, and there are not only tiger skins, but also tiger bones..."

The titles of the Yong Dynasty were divided into three classes: Duke, Marquis, and Bo, and it was a hereditary system.

Huo Sijiu's father fought with Emperor Jingyong and granted the title of Marquis of Yong'an and Huzhou Prefecture as a fief.

It's just that the Dayong Dynasty centralized power, and although the local princes had fiefdoms, they had no real power.

And Marquis Yong'an married the only daughter of Prince Jing's mansion, Princess Zhaohua, as his wife.

Princess Zhaohua defended Emperor Jingyong from injuries when he followed Emperor Jingyong in the South and North Wars.

The injury was serious, and he worked hard to save the person, but he suffered from a whole body of problems. This also led to Princess Zhaohua marrying Marquis Yong'an for ten years before she conceived a child.

Marquis Yong'an tried his best to keep him warm, but after Princess Zhaohua gave birth to a son, she couldn't support her body and drove west.

Marquis Yong'an was so distraught that he entered Buddhism regardless of his newborn son.

After Prince Jing heard the news, and with Emperor Jingyong's permission, he traveled all the way to stay in Huzhou Mansion to raise his newborn grandson himself.

And Huo Sijiu also made an exception to be on the imperial jade plate, ranking ninth among his peers, and Emperor Jing Yong named him Sijiu.

Emperor Jing Yong once said: As long as the Great Yong Dynasty stands upright, Xiao Jiu will be the most reckless boy in the world.

And Gu Qinhan, the leader of the Black Armored Guards, has a close relationship with Prince Jing's mansion...

When Huo Sijiu heard this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, he was a bit of a dandy, and sometimes he acted unreliably, but this group of people wouldn't treat him as a fool, right?

Who doesn't know the purpose of the black armored guards coming to the Huzhou mansion?

During this special period, he only opened his mouth when his brain was flooded.

He raised his hand, stroked the tiger skin inside the wooden box with his fingertips, and looked down at the back of the shopkeeper's head.

"The news is well-informed. I even found out that the young master wanted tiger bones, but why didn't I find out..."

The shopkeeper's meal was not good, his body trembled slightly, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Gu Qinhan is my master's master?"

"You guys, grab him.

Go to two more people, find my master, and say that there is a suspicious person in the shop in the innermost part of the East Street..."
