Ever since she was a child, her cousin had been the best to her, and he was also protective of the maids around her.
Feng Shaojun felt warm in his heart: "Thank you very much, Mr. Biao."
With this episode, Cui Yuanhan was no longer in the mood to eat and drink. He glanced around and randomly found an ordinary restaurant and ordered a table of dishes.
After filling their stomachs, everyone went to Hongzhuang Pavilion.
Feng Shaojun raised his head and glanced at the familiar signboard, sighing in his heart.
Hongzhuangge, which has branches in various counties in Daqi, is the property of the Luo family, a giant businessman in the capital.
The Luo family had secretly surrendered to the King of Yan, and half of the annual silver income from Hongzhuang Pavilion went into the Yan Palace. The Luo family not only used Hongzhuang Pavilion to earn huge amounts of gold and silver, but also used Hongzhuang Pavilion as a base to spy and collect information.
In her previous life, after she took refuge with King Yan, she also took over the secret manpower of Hongzhuang Pavilion.
Therefore, she is very familiar with Hongzhuang Pavilion.
After rebirth, do you have to walk the same road again?
Feng Shaojun rarely hesitated.
In her previous life, she was forced into a desperate situation and had to throw herself into a quagmire with no bottom. In order to take revenge and win the trust of King Yan, she took on the most dangerous task, disguised herself and sneaked into the Prince of Qin's palace to act as an internal agent.
Disguising yourself for a day or two is an interesting thing and should be used as a pastime.
For three years, she transformed into the chamberlain "Eunuch Feng" and approached the study step by step. She found the secret room in the study and sneaked into the secret room to find evidence that King Qin intended to rebel...
Do you still want to live such a gloomy and dull life, with a tense and extremely cautious life every step of the way?
"Jixiang," Cui Yuanhan's voice rang in his ears: "This Hongzhuang Pavilion sells rouge, gouache, and balm for women. It's inconvenient for me to go in. There is a teahouse over there. I'll go and sit for a while. You've done your shopping.
Find me at the teahouse."
Feng Shaojun came back to his senses and smiled at Cui Yuanhan: "Excuse me, sir, please wait a moment. I'll be back as soon as you go."
Let's think about it slowly whether or not to rejoin the King of Yan.
Now, let's go to the Hongzhuang Pavilion and explore what's going on inside.
Cui Yuanhan nodded with a smile and led Changqing to the teahouse.
Changqing drooped her head and looked unhappy.
Cui Yuanhan glanced at Changqing and said casually: "It's not yours, don't think too much about it. When we get back to Pingjiang Mansion, I will make the decision for you and choose a fresh one for you among the maids of the Cui family."
Shaojun's cousin will definitely marry into a high family in the future. Ji Xiang is Shaojun's cousin's personal maid, and she will have to marry into a high family with her master. In the future, she may become a married woman or marry a housekeeper.
In short, it is beyond what Changqing can think of.
When Cui Yuanhan said this, Changqing burst into tears and wiped his eyes heavily with the back of his hand.
Look at this dejected look, it's really pitiful.
Cui Yuanhan felt a little sympathetic, but also found it funny, so he took Changqing to drink tea.
…
At this time, Feng Shaojun had already entered Hongzhuang Pavilion.
Hongzhuang Pavilion has a great reputation and has its own merits.
The front shop is very wide and is made up of three door shops. The floor is covered with soft blankets and dozens of neatly arranged wooden shelves display various colors, sizes and styles of cosmetics and powders.
At first glance, it is dazzling and fascinating.
All the people coming and going here are female customers, and the waiters responsible for greeting the customers are all young women. They wear a short light red jacket and a long jade skirt, with a delicate face and a smile on their face.
As soon as Feng Shaojun entered, he was greeted by a woman of about 20 years old with a smile: "This girl looks strange, it's her first time here! There are all kinds of powders and ointments here, girl, do you want to try them?"
It was inconvenient for the ladies and daughters of famous officials to come in person, so most of them sent their maids or mothers in charge.
Feng Shaojun looked like a pretty maid at this time, appearing in Hongzhuang Pavilion without attracting attention at all.
Feng Shaojun smiled slightly: "I want a box of magnolia lip balm, two liang of orchid powder, three liang of jasmine balm, and four boxes of camellia-scented rouge."
A trace of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes, her expression did not change, she smiled softly and said: "Girl, please come and sit in the private room inside. There will be someone to greet the girl."
Feng Shaojun nodded with a smile and followed the woman into the back hall.
The private room is small and quite quiet.
After waiting for a while, the person who specially greeted the "distinguished guests" came.
The person who came was also a woman, about twenty-five or six years old, with hair styled like that of an unmarried girl. Her appearance was very beautiful, but it was a pity that she had a hideous scar on her forehead. The scar extended from the top of her head to her right eye.
, just a little bit hurt my eyes.
This scar ruined the woman's beautiful face. It was like a piece of white paper stained by thick black ink.
Feng Shaojun's heart skipped a beat.
They turned out to be acquaintances again.
This woman is called Yu Erniang. She is a capable general under the command of the King of Yan. She is good at preparing poisonous drugs. She is a ruthless person and is loyal to the King of Yan.
Yu Erniang was notorious for her sinister actions, which were bound to hurt people's lives. Later, her true identity was discovered and she was assassinated by a skilled assassin.
After the death of Er Niang, she, the "thousand-faced fox", was able to stand out, catch the eye of King Yan, and become his confidant.
She had interacted with Yu Erniang twice in her previous life. Moreover, the scar on Yu Erniang's forehead was her unique mark. Feng Shaojun recognized her after just one encounter.
Because Yu Erniang had a scar on her forehead, it was common for her to be noticed wherever she went.
"What's your surname is this girl?" Yu Erniang looked at Feng Shaojun carefully, while making several quick gestures with her hands.
"My surname is Cui, and I have an elder brother at home. Just call me Miss Cui." Feng Shaojun responded with a smile, and returned a few gestures with his right hand equally quickly.
This was used by King Yan's spies to ask for each other's identities when they met.
Yu Erniang is asking who she is.
She responded with gestures, saying that she was from Pingjiang Prefecture in Jiangnan and had just entered the capital.
There are many spies of King Yan, spread all over the country. They are men, women, old and young, and they have different origins. They don't know each other. In order to keep it secret, there are no signs to identify them. They rely on this set of gestures to confirm each other's identity.
The only person who knows the true identities of all the spies is Eunuch Yang who is beside King Yan.
Even King Yan himself doesn't know how many spies there are. Those who can catch the eyes of King Yan are the most powerful and outstanding ones.
Yu Erniang was suspicious by nature and continued to ask: "What is Miss Cui doing here today?"
There was another series of changing gestures in his hand.
Who sent you to the capital?
Feng Shaojun responded without changing his expression: "Hongzhuang Pavilion is famous. I came here today to buy some rouge, gouache, and ointment." He responded with gestures.
A secret order was given from the top of the mountain, so I can't tell you.
Yu Erniang narrowed her eyes slightly and asked again.
Where did you know about Hongzhuangge?
Feng Shaojun's gesture changes are as fast as Er Niang's.
Someone told me.
Yu Erniang stared closely at Feng Shaojun's face, unable to detect any flaws for a while.
Feng Shaojun looked back calmly.
After a while, Yu Erniang's expression relaxed and her tone softened: "Miss Cui is indeed one of our own."
