Zhou Xian walked to the high-level residence hall in the ceremony hall and realized that today was not a good weather, and Tokyo was not a good place... dry and cold!
It was neither snow nor rainy, the sky was gray, but it was very cold.
She could see the messenger waiting in the hall clearly at a glance, and she felt that this person was very annoying. Maybe there was no one around Zhou Duan who could use it.
The messenger was indeed sent by Zhou Duan. Zhou Xian recognized him and had sent two letters before.
Bring it.Zhou Xian suddenly seemed very rude.
The messenger had to take out the letter respectfully and hand it over.After receiving the call, Zhou Xian said angrily: Don’t send a letter if you have anything to do!
What did the villain do wrong?The messenger looked puzzled.
Zhou Xian came to his senses, said nothing, turned around and left.
She went back and opened the letter randomly and read it upset, feeling that Zhou Duan was all nonsense, all about their departure from Tokyo, and it was a purely polite letter.
She sat dullly next to a round table, her snow-white teeth biting her vermilion lips, and thought to herself: I will never take the initiative to have anything to do with him, that's it!
Even if he wants to meet again now, I won’t agree.
At this moment, the servant who had just come to report the message came in and said: Madam, someone wants to see you again, he is a woman.
not see!Zhou Xian blurted out.
The servant was startled and whispered: Then I'll refuse her, what excuses should I make...
etc.Zhou Xian frowned and said, since he is a woman, please bring her in and ask what's wrong.
Look.The servant responded.
After a while, a tall and plump beautiful woman with a cold expression was brought in. She was wearing a lapel robe. Looking at her expression, she seemed to be a noble lady with a status than Zhou Xian... But Zhou Xian recognized her, and she was just a follower around Guo Shao, and she was called Jingniang.
Jing Niang looked at Zhou Xian and said with a complicated expression: Mrs. Li, can you take a step to speak?
This woman deliberately took the three words of Mrs. Li very seriously, and seemed to have a faint tone of contempt.
Come here.Zhou Xian glanced at the doors and windows and said calmly.
The woman approached and said coldly: My son, Ah Lang, was afraid that you could not confirm that it was the one he sent, so he sent me specially. Have you seen me?If not, I really don't want to do this.
Zhou Xian said coldly: What kind of serious things do he have? You can speak directly, not to mention those useful or not.
Jingniang said: When you go out of the ceremony hall, turn left and then walk south, you can see Daxiangguo Temple, the largest "Tokyo Spring Tea" building to the north of the temple. Go upstairs to meet my Alang.
Jingniang's tone was very stiff: Your husband is now going to meet the Minister of Rites, and he will not come back until dark.
Zhou Xian said coldly: He found out very clearly.
Jingniang said: What should I ask?Wang Pu invited your husband, who was instigated by Alang, and said that he should make friends with the Southern Tang Kingdom.
Jing Niang's tone made Zhou Xian feel an insult, and she was both ashamed and annoyed. She blurted out: Don't go!What is he going to do to be honest and open? I am not someone who he has any friendship. Why can he come and whine it?
Really not to go?Jingniang asked, looking up and down Zhou Xian.
Zhou Xian said: If you can't say you can't go, you won't go.You can leave, and you won't stay.
Jing Niang nodded: Then I can go back and say something.
After Zhou Xian waited for her to leave, he grabbed the teacup on the table and acted like a drop in the air, but in the end he put it back on the table.Her chest fluttered and her face flushed.
After procrastinating for a long time, she realized: This is because of the fact that the girl in Jing is not doing anything well, otherwise why would Guo Shao have done so much trouble?
But Guo Shao doesn't seem to have a better choice. For example, if she makes an appointment to go out privately, she must be sure that it was someone sent by Guo Shao; otherwise, Zhou Xian would not go out privately for safety.
Zhou Xian could not confirm Guo Shao's handwriting. What handwriting could the letter last time have? It was written in his left hand!
Zhou Xian thought he couldn't blame Guo Shao, but he just blamed the most unreliable thing for doing things!But there is only such a person around him who has seen him.
She understood that it had nothing to do with Guo Shao, but her mood had been completely destroyed.If it were normal, she would never have hesitated... But today was the last chance to say goodbye.
Zhou Xian hesitated for a while and always felt unable to feel at ease.At this moment, I was very impetuous and had no mood to do anything at all, just thinking about what happened just now.
Come!She finally shouted, stood up, frowned, and asked someone to prepare the carriage and horses. I'll go to my cousin's house and say goodbye to her.
The servant answered and went out.
Zhou Xian hurried into the house and found a newer outfit to put on. After looking at the bronze mirror, he quickly changed his clothes. Then he cleaned up his hair in front of the mirror and applied some light makeup to modify it, especially his lips. He had not adapted to the winter climate in Tokyo, and his hair was a little dry, so he needed to apply some rouge to look better.
After a while, Zhou Xian thought about it. He had already rejected Jing Niang just now, and Guo Shao was still waiting in the teahouse?This powerful general probably doesn't have so much spare time to do such useless things.
Zhou Xian was suddenly depressed and felt that nothing was going well today!Nothing can be done well!
At this moment, the servant said: Madam, the carriage and horse are ready.
Um.Zhou Xian stood up expressionlessly with a face held back.
I can do this with no goal at all. Maybe... I can go and say goodbye to Chen Jiali, but I have nothing to do anyway.
Although she was intrigued by Chen Jiali, the conflict had not reached the point where she wanted to break up and never interact with each other. Isn’t this the relationship between the aristocratic palaces the same?
The streets of Tokyo are still very peaceful. Although this is a war-torn country, it is the capital.
There is at least one official shop in each street, and there are tolerances on duty day and night to maintain public security.
The imperial guards are also stationed on the important road.
Zhou Xian took a carriage all the way to Chen Jiali's mansion in the west of the city.
As soon as he said he wanted to say goodbye to Chen Jiali, Chen Jiali covered her mouth and chuckled softly: I think you want to ask someone to help me, right?
Zhou Xian said: We are going to set off for Jinling tomorrow. He sent someone to say goodbye, but I refused.Now I'm afraid I'll leave when I go to the place where he meets.
Where?Chen Jiali said, it would not be a big deal if my cousin regrets rejecting him.Let's go first to see if he is there; if he is gone, I'll send someone to ask him to go there again. What a big deal.
Zhou Xian remained silent.
Chen Jiali looked at her with a smile, turned around and called Aunt Sun in, and ordered: Settling down the people my cousin brought, she said she wanted to have dinner at the house.A few more people were sent, and my cousin and I were going out.
After this, Zhou Xian said: Just go and have a look. If he has left, he will send me back.It’s not that important, I must meet you... I just want to thank him for helping my husband... I said apart, that’s all.
Chen Jiali said seriously: General Guo has helped a lot, compared to the fact that my cousin suffered a little loss.We should still be a little more thorough in etiquette.
It was neither snow nor rainy, the sky was gray, but it was very cold.
She could see the messenger waiting in the hall clearly at a glance, and she felt that this person was very annoying. Maybe there was no one around Zhou Duan who could use it.
