Chapter 9 Zhongli Chuchu
The next morning, a completely different morning light shone between the pavilions and towers of the royal palace.
In the wing room of the royal palace, Mrs. Lu woke up quietly and had not slept well in the room for a month. At this time, she felt a little lighter all over, and the fatigue of the carriage and horses was exhausted all over.
Mrs. Lu blinked, woke up for a moment before turning her eyes to the outside.
Xiao Xiang'er lies on the pillow with her back to her, her hair is a little messy, and she is wrapped in a blanket and reveals her snowy shoulders. She breathes smoothly and sleeps soundly.
Mrs. Lu leaned over and looked at her for a few times, raised her hand and shook her shoulders:
"Xiang'er, I'm awake. Today I have to go to worship the princess and get up early."
“Woo…”
Xiao Xianger frowned, took a breath, and raised her hand gently: "Sleep for a while, just lying down..." Speaking of this, Xiao Xianger suddenly woke up, opened her eyes, turned her head up and started wearing a skirt.
Mrs. Lu was a little puzzled, looked around and suddenly raised her hand and pinched her bun and looked at it: "Why is it red? Can there be mosquitoes?"
"ah-"
Xiao Xiang'er's face turned red, and she quickly patted Mrs. Lu's hand, covered her upper body with lotus hidden carp, and frowned:
"Do you still know there are mosquitoes? I won't bite you..."
Mrs. Lu smiled with her lips and looked down: "Ling'er said no, I thought there were no mosquitoes here, so I'll hang up the mosquito net tonight..."
Xiao Xiang'er was still a little dizzy. She didn't sleep much in the palace, but she was not very tired at this time. After calling out "Qiao'e", she put on her boots.
Mrs. Lu was inside, and saw Xiao Xianger a little floating when she was walking, and frowned:
"Xiang'er, are you sick?"
"No, get up quickly."
Xiao Xiang'er didn't dare to talk to Mrs. Lu, so she walked to the screen and asked a few little maids to wear it, obviously feeling guilty.
Mrs. Lu slept very sweetly last night, but she didn't notice anything. According to her previous habits, she drank a sip of water first, then opened the window and stretched. She forgot that this was the back house of the Xu family. Xu Buling was waiting outside the courtyard. She was stunned when she saw her, and then quickly turned her head.
“…”
I looked down and saw that the peony flowers were full of...
"ah-"
Mrs. Lu quickly closed the window and ran back to put her skirt on.
After the two of them cleaned up and washed up, they had breakfast with Xu Buling.
The owner of the palace was Xu Buling, and the three of them sat together for dinner. Mrs. Lu seemed to have forgotten the last time she caught the adulterer in bed. Maybe she thought it was useless to mention it. She returned to her usual gentle appearance, and poured wine for Xu Buling, and said some trivial matters.
Because Xu Buling and Mrs. Lu lived together for a long time, Xiao Xianger felt like an outsider, sitting alone opposite him, maintaining the empress dowager's demeanor, lowering her head and not talking. Occasionally, somewhere on her body came, and she would secretly glar at Xu Buling.
Xu Buling naturally had a pure and flawless look, and he looked like a handsome young man.
After dinner, the three of them got on the carriage and went to the sea of flowers outside the city to worship the late Princess Su. Xu Buling had recovered and did not need too many guards. A carriage set off in a light and simple way...
------
At the end of Baishi Avenue outside the palace, there were already pedestrians on the street. Merchants from outside the pass were shouting in exotic accents on the street, and merchants from Central Plains were also looking for chats on the street.
On the bustling streets, a white camel was walking slowly on the street. The crisp sound of camel bells is very common in Suzhou and has not attracted much attention.
On the tall white camel, Zhongli Chuchu had red gauze hanging on her side, and her green eyes stared at the carriage in Prince Su's mansion and drove through the road in a low-key manner.
Last time in Renyitang in Chang'an, Zhongli Chuchu and Xu Buling had a brief contact, and were also surprised by Xu Buling's martial arts. However, it was impossible to come to Suzhou to find something when they fell in love at first sight, but there was a knot in his heart.
When Zhongli Chuchu just remembered, she lived in a small tribe outside the pass. Later, she met the horse bandits, and the small tribe that was not big was gone.
Women are fertile tools and laborers in the wild land. At the age of two or three, she and other children were packed and transported to a small town outside the pass to sell.
When he was a child, he had a pale face and thin skin, which may be a blessing. The nobleman who came to buy slaves did not like her, and then a dealer came over, bought her away, and took her to Suzhou City.
After a few twists and turns, he finally crossed the entire Dayue Dynasty and ran to the capital of Nanyue. He was bought back by a very large brothel.
Because of her good foundation, the brothel's madam took good care of her. From then on, she realized that in addition to meat and brown rice noodles, people could also eat a lot of other things, and their clothes could be of color.
At that time, I lived with a group of young girls in the Central Plains. I learned the things in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day. I gradually understood the words of the teaching nanny, such as "Study hard and enjoy the blessing of Miss" and "If you don't study hard, you will not live to be twenty years old."
Zhongli Chuchu went from being a wilderness where people were worse than animals to a place where people could live like humans. Although she was only five or six years old, she cherished her life at that time, even if it was the backyard of a brothel.
Because here, at least there will be no ropes and scimitars around your neck at night, and the house will not turn into ruins the next day.
Zhongli Chuchu is smart and learns things quickly. She knows where brothels are at a young age and what to do when she grows up. Therefore, she has always been obedient and won the love and trust of the madam.
After finally reaching seven or eight years old, she went shopping alone and didn't stop her. She began to take the opportunity to escape. She didn't run away directly, but just walked around the street for a few times, knowing that someone must have followed her secretly, and went back on time and pressed her time.
It lasted for half a year, and finally one day...
She was abducted when she went out alone!
That was a very beautiful woman.
Zhongli Chuchu was taught the importance of appearance since childhood, so she could distinguish her appearance and please men and nanny more.
The woman was like a fox. When she saw it, she felt that if she put this woman in a brothel, the nanny would definitely be offering her as her ancestors and would have whatever she wanted.
Unfortunately, while she was surprised, the woman was also surprised and stared into her eyes.
She realized that there was danger and wanted to run back, but then she was picked up by the woman, turned around and ran out of the city.
The thug's angry scolding and the rapidly retreating street buildings were her last memories of that street.
She also discovered for the first time that people would also "fly".
Since then, she followed the woman to a copycat in Nanyue, and she never left her steps. She also wanted to learn the skills that more than a dozen men could not catch up with even holding a knife. As long as she learned it, she would not have to endure hardship in her life.
The woman was very nice to her, better than the brothel's madam. She was willing to teach her everything, and even gave her a name and accepted it as her apprentice.
Zhongli Chuchu felt like home for the first time, and she could only feel admiration and gratitude in her heart. She was afraid that her master would leave her and run away in her dreams. She even swears secretly that when she grows up, she will take care of her master as if she takes care of her mother for the rest of her life.
But reality is always cruel, so cruel that it makes people desperate and heartbreaking.
Zhongli Chuchu and the woman called "Ye Jiuniang" lived together for six years.
Take meticulously and treat it as your own.
But as she grew older, Zhongli Chuchu slowly discovered something that was difficult for her to accept.
Since she was very young, Ye Jiuniang used various precious herbs to warm her body. She was so harsh that she could not even have any flaws in her hair. She said that she had to lay a solid foundation if she wanted to learn martial arts.
Zhongli Chuchu always obeyed the rules, but she never learned the master's martial arts skills, and even didn't let her do heavy work. Sometimes she secretly learned other children's horse stances, etc. The master would be very angry. Only when she could ask questions would she teach her some simple things.
Over the past few years, Zhongli Chuchu didn't learn much martial arts, and slowly found that she was getting more and more beautiful, so beautiful that she had to wear a veil so that she would not be stared at by those disgusting men.
Zhongli Chuchu was burned by a bandit when she was young, and stayed in a brothel for a while. She was very disgusted with the men in the world and felt that they were all disgusted.
As she grew older, she gradually heard some rumors from the village - Ye Jiuniang competed with a woman in the Central Plains for the title of the world's number one beauty. She was driven out of the Central Plains without fighting. She heard that the woman named Ning Yuhe accepted an apprentice, so she accepted her as her apprentice...
From that moment on, Zhongli Chuchu felt that the whole world had collapsed. She regarded her relatives as her relatives, but in the end she was like the fake madam in the brothel, just like the face of her.
In Zhongli Chuchu's view, the so-called "Xuanhe Bakui" is no different from the courtesans in brothels, and is all for the pleasure of men.
Zhongli Chuchu was very angry and went to question his master, hoping that his master could say, "I like you, I don't like you to be nice to you."
But the master stammered and finally said, "The world's number one beauty, many people can't ask for it, you are still angry with me, and you have been raising you for so many years..."
After all, it is just a vase and a puppet. The so-called family affection and love are all fake. Just like the brothel maids treat those girls with good backgrounds, they still treat those who are not good-looking and useless, and they still treat them like pigs and dogs.
Since then, Zhongli Chuchu has left the village and has never returned.
Riding a white camel traveled around the world, becoming a wanderer in the world. Without advanced martial arts, he relied on his brain and poisonous means to walk around the world, and walked all the way to Chang'an, wanting to go back to the beginning of memory.
I never thought that when I was in Chang'an, I actually met Ning Yuhe's apprentice, the master tried every means to use her to compete with the other party.
Zhongli Chuchu was a little curious and saw it with her own eyes. She looked really good, but she might not be as beautiful as hers.
But whether a woman looks good depends on the man’s thoughts.
Zhongli Chuchu hates this kind of comparison, but Ning Qingye happens to have a male friend who is handsome and beautiful, and has a close relationship. He should be a couple.
Zhongli Chuchu was raised by her master for six years. Perhaps in order to finally fulfill her wish, she wanted to compete with Ning Qingye and let that man be the referee. Unfortunately, the mutation in Renyi Hall gave her no chance to take off the veil.
Before leaving, he asked Ning Qingye indirectly. Ning Qingye said that the man started to show his attention when he first met. Like other disciples, he thought he was impressed by Ning Qingye's beauty.
So, Zhongli Chuchu began to imagine that Ning Qingye's man would look like when he saw her true face. He would definitely be more excited than when he saw Ning Qingye. Well... he opened his mouth, wide eyes, even drooled, and spoke incoherently...
Zhongli Chuchu has always been curious about how beautiful, powerful, powerful, and cold-hearted son of the prince would lose his composure when he saw her.
Men in the world are lustful. No matter how hypocritical they are on the surface, they will reveal their true colors when they meet beautiful women. There is no exception. When they see Ning Qingye, how can they be exceptional when they see her...
On the white camel on the street, Zhongli Chuchu saw the carriage away and gradually became a little more thoughtful.
After leaving Chang'an, she went directly outside the pass, trying to find the place where she came from when she was a child, but unfortunately she could not find it.
On the way back, I heard that the man was back and waited here.
As long as you see that man in your true face, record the man's reaction and send it to your master who is far away from the world, this master-disciple relationship will be considered to be over...
Zhongli Chuchu thought so, turned the camel and walked towards the street where pedestrians were shoulder to shoulder...
