Chapter 16

Yun Chan had many thoughts and doubts in his heart.

If she didn't find anything, how could she come up with such an idea so suddenly.

Nan Xu and the General's Mansion are not as close as she said.

……

The affairs of the general's mansion came to an end, Nan Xu followed Shen Cijing and quickly went back to the mansion, Si Qingyao was reluctant, but returned to Shangshu's mansion, after all, he hadn't seen Lord Shangshu for many years, and the old man missed him.

Wheels and wheels passed the long streets of the capital.

Nan Xu was still thinking about the poisoning. If it wasn't for Zhao Yue's sudden search for thousands of miles, she might not have discovered the poison on her body, and maybe she died suddenly one day and no one knew the reason.

Can't live to be 20 years old... That's less than two years.

The best situation is that it can last for two years, but it may be gone one day, this matter is not up to her to decide.

It seems that many things have to be put on the agenda quickly.

"Ah Xu has changed a lot compared to before."

While he was thinking, the voice of another person in the carriage suddenly sounded.

Nan Xu looked up at Shen Cijing, her eyes were a little unclear.

Shen Cijing didn't intend to continue talking, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and asked in a low voice: "There are many interesting things in the capital, and you live in the palace all year round, so it's rare that you have time, do you want to go for a stroll?"

He just remembered Nan Xu's appearance when he met Shang Yunchan when he was in the general's mansion. He didn't want to know each other for the first time, nor was he as well-behaved as the rumors in the capital.

But after thinking about it, no matter how she changed, it was his Ruoruo after all, and now it was his Axu.

Nan Xu followed the man's wide sleeves and walked over the small window. The sound from the outside world seemed to amplify instantly, only the cries of vendors on the street, the voices of people coming and going, mixed with the sound of wheels of carriages on the street, and the sound of horseshoes... …

All kinds of voices are intertwined, making people forget the heavy conspiracy in an instant.

This glance is like the smoke and fire in the world.

The way life looks.

"Okay!" Nan Xu responded.

Shen Cijing asked the coachman outside to stop, Nan Xu couldn't hold back his joy, put away his long sleeves, got out first, and jumped off the carriage.

Take a breath, the sweetness of caramel fills the air.

Nan Xu's eyes lit up for no reason, and his eyes turned rapidly, looking for something around him.

"It's chestnuts fried in sugar." Shen Cijing appeared beside her at some point, took the fox fur cloak she was still in the carriage, put his hands around her neck, and tied it lightly.

"It's over there."

Seeing her looking at one place with a pair of watery eyes, but she couldn't find her, she looked naive, Shen Cijing supported her shoulders on both sides, and turned her slightly in one direction, the man's eyes were more doting.

"Wow!" Nan Xu trotted over, "Boss, I want a bag of this!"

She rubbed her hands, and the air outside made her palms cold for a moment.

This season is still cold, but seeing the steaming sugar-fried chestnuts in the boss's hand, I don't feel cold for a moment.

"Girl, your sugar-fried chestnuts!" The boss handed over a bag of chestnuts wrapped in paper, and Nan Xu held them in his palm, as expected, full of satisfaction.

When she was young, she clamored for fried chestnuts with sugar, and her father ordered someone to rush out of the palace to buy them for her.

I remember that when I just crossed over, with the memory of the previous life, I came to such an antique world in the blink of an eye, but I only wanted to make up for the regrets of the previous life, so when I was a child, I dreamed of visiting the great rivers and mountains of Nanyi Kingdom one day.

It's a pity that she is a princess, and because she is still young, her father doesn't let her leave the palace.

After finally growing up, who knew that such a big thing would happen in Nan Yi Country, and she became an orphan without a father almost overnight.

The travel appointment with A Yao can only be pushed and pushed...

Shen Cijing followed her and silently handed the money to the boss.

"Girl, buy a hairpin!"

"Young master, why don't you buy a hairpin and give it to your sweetheart!"

Passing by a hawker's stall, filled with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, the owner is a middle-aged woman in floral clothes, warmly greeted the passers-by.

Nan Xu took a look and found that these jewelry were inferior to those in the palace. The difference was that there were many wooden objects carved with various patterns. Stop for this touch of elegance.

"Boss, what is this?"

There is a camellia ebony hairpin in Nan Xuxiang, with some thin patterns carved on it, like cloud patterns. If you look closely, there is a hollow pattern carved in the center of the hairpin. It turns out to be a landscape painting, and there is a hidden mystery inside it , an attic with a bright moon hanging on the roof, which is made of a tiny night pearl.

Looking carefully, even the upturned four corners of the beams of the house are clearly carved, and on the door of the pavilion, the words "Shui Yingyue" are clearly engraved.

I don't know what kind of strange person can make a small hairpin so delicate and exquisite.

"The girl has a good eye. This is the treasure of the small shop. It looks ordinary, but it actually hides a mystery..." As she said, the proprietress approached Nan Xu's ear mysteriously.

She spoke in a very low voice: "Let me tell you, my hairpin is even incomparable to the purple jade in the hands of the eldest princess."

Nan Xu raised her eyebrows with great interest: "Oh? Really? You can't even compare to Ziyu, which is famous in Nanyi Country?"

Her voice was full of surprise, and she followed the boss in a lowered voice with an exaggerated expression.

Nan Xu didn't believe it, and these sellers would exaggerate, make false propaganda, and specifically deceive ordinary people who don't know the goods.

"Of course, my hairpin is a thing handed down from the ancestors. It has been passed down for thousands of years, but it is a pity that there is no one who knows the goods. I think the girl is destined, and you just caught my eye."

Nan Xu looked at the hairpin, it looked plain on the surface, if one didn't look carefully, one would not be able to see through the strangeness hidden in it, and no one else would even see it.

"Since it's a family heirloom, why did the boss sell it?" Nan Xu asked her.

Let's see how this man is going to fool around.

The boss suddenly clutched his chest, with a heartbroken look: "It's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice. If it weren't for desperation, who would sell the family's hairpin!"

"I think the boss's business is so prosperous, but it's not like what the boss said." Shen Jijing stood beside Nan Xu and pulled him behind him.

He could hear their conversations, because of his martial arts practice, his ears were more sensitive than ordinary people.

He doesn't live in the capital, but most of the peddlers are the same. Nan Xu lived in the palace for a long time, and Shen Cijing was afraid that she would be tricked.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across the boss's face, and he scratched his head guiltily: "This...this hairpin...it can bring extraordinary luck! But the premise is that it must be a predestined person, and my family has been passed down for so many generations. For luck, I don’t think I’m a destined person, why not take it out and sell it for a few pennies!”

"However!" The boss changed his voice, "Based on my many years of experience, the girl is definitely the one who is destined!"

The corners of Nan Xu's mouth twitched slightly. Seeing what the boss said so vividly, he seemed afraid that his hairpin would not be sold.

He weighed it in his hand, and it looked pretty good. Regardless of whether the boss's story was true or not, she didn't mind spending some money to buy it for fun.

"how much is this……"

Before he finished speaking, like a gust of wind, he ran past Nan Xu and knocked her. Nan Xu's feet were unsteady. Fortunately, Shen Cijing had quick eyes and quick hands, so he reached out to catch her and held her in his arms.

Responding, look at the hand.

"Where's my hairpin?"
