I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man: 41. First meeting

lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters I am not such a man!

Qin Nuo was taken aback, and looked at it intently. In the middle of the crowd, isn't it his own Xianglu shop Baijizhai?

He simply got out of the carriage, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, there was a smell of scent, which was the smell of toilet water he was most familiar with, but it was too strong!

Qin Nuo raised his foot and walked into the store. Zhang Juzhe dispersed the crowd in front of him. He arrived at the door of the store not long before he discovered where the fragrance came from.

The ground is a mixed bag of colored glass bottles, and the fragrance inside flows freely. The fragrance of pear, lily, and osmanthus... overlaps into an almost pungent fragrance.

Qin Nuo frowned. No wonder so many people gathered here.

His gaze fell on the person who caused the matter. It was a girl with a sagittarius appearance. She looked only thirteen or four years old. She was born with cherry lips and nose, sweet and lovely, with a thin blush on her cheeks, just like one Only sweet and delicious red apples.

Although the distinction between men and women in this era is not particularly strict, but the ladies of the noble families mostly wear drapery hats when they go out. The girl in front of her was dressed in luxurious clothes and was obviously of extraordinary origin, but faced with such a large number of people, she had no intention of hiding it at all.

She was embracing her hands and said angrily: "I said that your shop is a lie, and this fragrance can't attract butterflies at all."

The steward of Baijizhai shouted injustice next to him: "Miss, don't wrong us. The store has never said that this fragrance can attract butterflies!"

Because of Huo Youjuan's good show before, Baijizhai’s fragrance rose to fame. Of course, if the other lady bought it back, she would definitely not be able to attract butterflies, but because of this kind of thing, he would come to the door and make trouble. Piece.

"Why the people in your store said that the people in the capital said that this fragrance is magical, and I have seen it with my own eyes. Otherwise, why would you come here to customize so many products." The girl said angrily. "At yesterday's banquet, I promised everyone that there would be a good show. It was because your perfume was messed up. How can you compensate me?"

Baijizhai’s manager’s cheek twitches, what does this have to do with us? It’s just that the girl in front of me looks at whether it is rich or expensive, so she can only continue to persuade her, "Miss forgive me, our shop really does not have this kind of magical perfume. Maybe it’s the peers who love and brag too much, but the shop itself has never boasted so much Yes, please miss Mingjian."

The maid next to the girl looked anxious and whispered, "Miss, it's getting late, we should go home."

The girl looked stubborn, "No, I must find something that suits my heart today. Did you hide the real famous products and try to deal with me with the unfavourable things. I have so much money," If I don't hand over the real orphan today, I will..." The girl paused.

Qin Nuo turned his head and gave Li Wan a few words, then walked out of the crowd and asked: "What do you want, Miss?"

The girl snorted coldly, "I'll smash this store!" After speaking, she couldn't help being taken aback when she saw Qin Nuo's face clearly.

For a moment when the two stood facing each other, there was a roar of laughter around them, and the crowd clamored.

"Smash it, it's not a real man if it doesn't!"

"Just talk and don't practice fake skills."

……

Qin Nuo frowned, "Miss, forgive me, the effect of incense dew varies from person to person. The so-called can attract butterflies, maybe only those who are destined for incense dew can get it occasionally."

The girl's face sank, "What you said, is it that I am inferior to others? Which lady is the one who brought the butterfly, it seems to be the daughter of the Huo family, huh, it's a perfidious person."

Anyone who sees his efforts being ruined by others will be very angry, and even more angry if the other party's words even involve his fiancée.

Originally, there was still a hint of hesitation, but now he has no scruples. Qin Nuo asked with a cold face, "As long as this fragrance can attract things, will the lady stop worrying about it?"

"Of course." The girl nodded.

"Miss, don't worry, if it's too late today, maybe it's just the bee butterfly coming late". Qin Nuo said indifferently, before the voice fell, a buzzing sound suddenly came from a distance, and as the sound got closer, someone in the crowd began to exclaim.

"It's a bee!"

"There is a swarm of bees, run!"

In a blink of an eye, a large swarm of bees rushed here like a dark cloud. The crowd ran away, busy hiding their heads and covering their faces.

Qin Nuo stepped back, and Zhang Juzhe immediately took the guards to protect him.

Looking at the other side again, the bee swarm was abrupt, and the girl seemed to be stunned, she didn't know how to avoid it.

Qin Nuo hesitated for a moment and reminded him: "Hurry up and run!"

Although he intends to scare the other party, it is also a trouble for such a famous lady to be bitten.

The girl came back to her senses, but instead of following him back, she went straight to meet her. I didn't know where to take out a dagger, cold light was radiating, the slender hand was waving, the silver light passed, and a dozen bees fell to the ground in an instant.

Qin Nuo was stunned, and the maid next to the girl, who also knows martial arts, took out a pair of Er-Emei thorns from nowhere, waved her hands a little bit, and every time she swiped it, there was a bee corpse falling like rain.

The crowd has almost retreated, only two slim girls are left. The maid is obviously higher in martial arts. The Emei sting makes the points up and down, but it can't resist more and more bees.

Can't help crying: "Miss, there are too many bees, and no slaves and maids can resist it. Please retreat to the store as soon as possible."

The girl snorted coldly, but stubbornly refused to give in. The bee swarm was enraged by the two men, and they came up to attack.

At this time, Qin Nuo is no longer a rookie in martial arts, and she quickly sees that the girl looks beautiful with a dagger, but in fact her skill is mediocre. If it were not for the maid to take care of her, her flaws would have been exposed.

Even so, the maid gradually couldn't support it. With an oversight, a bee got into the girl's sleeve and bit.

The girl screamed immediately, threw the dagger on the ground, and jumped up with her hands in her arms.

Then the door opened wide, and bees swarmed up like a wave. The maid exclaimed, and at the moment of the moment, a dark curtain fell from the sky.

Qin Nuo at the back was really helpless, so he took off his cloak, covered the girl from head to toe, and then took her a hand.

Zhang Juzhe and the maid of Emei stab guarded behind, and the group retreated to the store.

The shopkeeper closed the store door immediately. The place where the crowd was originally crowded was empty, leaving only the fragrance all over the floor, and the swarms of bees lingering endlessly.

The darkness in front of the girl's eyes, without knowing the direction, bumped her head into Qin Nuo's arms.

Qin Nuo took a step back and lifted the cloak on her head.

"What are you doing?" The girl was embarrassed and angry, her big round eyes were weeping, holding her bitten arm.

Qin Nuo is too lazy to pay attention to her, and helping her is just not wanting to make a big deal. The shopkeeper quickly fetched the ointment for reducing swelling and removing blood stasis, and the maid thanked her repeatedly, and then applied it on her behalf.

Qin Nuo next to him again instructed the shopkeeper: "When the things are ready, pour them out immediately."

The shopkeeper's order, led the two young men, opened the crack of the door, and poured two basins of milky white water out of the door.

The water wetted the ground and mixed with the scented flower dew before. It was strange to say that the original strong scent disappeared in an instant. Without the attraction of incense dew, the swarm of bees hovered for a moment, and soon flew away. Only a mess in front of the store.

The girl next to her was still holding her arms and grinning, she was puzzled when she saw this scene.

Don’t everyone say that this fragrance will last for a long time? Why is there no water after pouring a pot of water. She stared at the copper basin in the hands of the shop assistant, "What's in it?"

The shopkeeper Dou glanced at Qin Nuo and laughed: "Miss, forgive me, this is the secret recipe from our shop's ancestors and cannot be disclosed."

Actually, when Qin Nuo did an experiment before, he accidentally discovered a kind of lye that can neutralize the perfume alcohol. He extracted some powder and placed it in the store, waiting for the next step of research. I didn’t expect to send it at this time use.

The shopkeeper Dou said again: "Miss just said that as long as we can bring in something, the fragrance of our shop will be considered qualified, and I must be satisfied with the lady. It’s getting late today, and the shop is not good. Please come back. "The boss came behind the scenes, and the shopkeeper Dou felt that his waist was straightened a lot.

How can I be satisfied. The girl jumped up, "Didn't it say good butterflies? Why are bees attracted?"

Qin Nuo smiled next to him: "The bees and butterflies are all of the same genus, maybe it's just that these bees live closer."

The girl stared at him unconvincingly. She was about to speak, and suddenly she was startled, "You..." She pointed to Qin Nuo, "Isn't it the night I saw that Miss Huo met on the water." Your son?"

She can recognize herself? It must be one of the ships staying nearby at that time.

The girl blinked, "So you are the owner of this shop? You saved Miss Huo again...Huh!" The girl instinctively felt that there seemed to be something wrong inside.

Qin Nuo is slightly embarrassed. Fortunately, in this era, the advertising industry is not so developed, and girls probably don’t think too much.

He interrupted the girl's thoughts and smiled: "It's just a coincidence, maybe it's fate here, so I met Miss today."

The girl stayed for a while, and suddenly clapped her hands: "No wonder I couldn't attract butterflies with so much perfume before. It was you who really attracted butterflies and bees? Not Miss Huo. You were born so beautiful, no wonder the butterflies Bees like it."

Looking at the other person's face suddenly realized, Qin Nuo's smile was a little stiff. This is a deliberate irony of my bee and butterfly, or the girl in front of me is really a natural daze.

The shopkeeper Dou and the young man next to them couldn't help but want to laugh, but they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of their master.

The maid beside the girl pulled her skirt and whispered: "Miss, it's not appropriate to say that."

The girl was stunned, did not speak, and then looked up at Qin Nuo. With a beautiful face with a gentle smile, she sincerely said: "You are so good-looking, if I were a bee, I would like you too."

Such straightforward words are shocking to the world in the circle of noble ladies in the capital.

The maid lost her face in shock, and quickly grabbed the girl's skirt: "Miss, stop talking."

I bowed to Qin Nuo again, and said with a smile: "My son, forgive me, my lady is a bit more straightforward. If it's not early today, we should also say goodbye. For the fragrance depleted today, we will send someone to come tomorrow. Billing."

"The settlement is unnecessary. Today, because of the fragrance dew, I hurt the lady's arm, but a few bottles of fragrance dew will be a gift." Qin Nuo responded calmly.

The maid should know her identity, otherwise she wouldn't be so careful. I just don't know where the girl in front of me is. Take a closer look, her features are exquisite and delicate, her complexion is fair, and such an outstanding appearance should be well-known in the circle of noble women in the capital.

After bidding farewell, the maid helped her master and hurried out of the shop.

In the carriage, the girl pouted, "I was not rude, but praised him for his good-looking life. I used to say it in Northern Xinjiang."

The maid accompanied and said with a smile: "What the lady said is that the rules in the capital are stricter, and the son is also a nobleman."

"What nobleman?" the girl asked.

"It should be Lord Chun, my younger brother." The maid reminded me that in the capital, the prince also liked the shop where he often came from home.

"Chunwang, hey, I remember you said before that King Chun is a fool."

"Uh, what was said in the capital before, maybe it was based on falsehood." The maid also hesitated.

The girl gave a low hum, and then shook her sleeves boredly: "The capital is really annoying. It would be better to stay in northern Xinjiang if I knew it." After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "I was just now. His words are impolite, he won't be angry, right?"

"It should not be. It is said that Lord Chun has a good temperament, and he rarely punishes his servants."

"That's good." The girl relaxed.

The maid comforted: "Even if you are angry, don't be afraid, who is the lady, why worry about a king of idleness, but don't offend and complain for no reason."

In Baijizhai, after confirming that the girl had left, Li Wan poked his head out from behind. His face was swollen, and three or four large bruises were extremely conspicuous.

"It was really hard for Grandpa Li to take someone to the hive picked from the tree behind." Shopkeeper Dou explained to Qin Nuo.

Looking at his pitiful appearance, Qin Nuo sighed, most of the anger that had arisen because of him criticizing Huo Youjuan dissipated.

Just now, he saw the girl making trouble in front of the store, so he told Li Wan to go to the big tree in the backyard to fetch the hive there. When I was approaching, I poured a bottle of honeydew on the ground. The fragrance of honeydew could not be distinguished from the smell of honeydew, but it could not hide the smell of the bees. There was a farce behind.

Qin Nuo was also angry for a while, and it was ridiculous to think about it afterwards. He was too naive, and he was really angry with a young girl. So he even confiscated the compensation money that the girls offered and let them go.

"Go and apply the medicine first. After I have selected something from the Songshan store, I will follow the carriage and go back." Qin Nuo said indifferently.

This is to forgive him for his previous disrespect. Li Wan was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "The slave knows."

**********************

The night is dark, and the golden light is sprinkled on the white winter snow, and the entire garden seems to be covered with a layer of extravagant floating light.

Huo Donglai, dressed in a dark blue cloak, walked on the path in the garden with only a small servant carrying a lantern beside him.

Pass through the deep plum blossom forest, walk across a pontoon bridge, and finally stop in front of an attic made of green bamboo.

Don't wait for the little servant to come forward and button the door. The courtyard door creaked and was pushed open.

"The Lord of the Country has finally arrived. The Lord has been waiting for you for a long time."

Huo Donglai quickly stepped into the room, a rush of warm air mixed with the plum blossom scent.

He took off the big cloak and handed it to the servant, then bowed down to the tall and thin figure standing in front of the window: "Father."

The last patriarch of the Huo family, the top clan of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was the elder who was more than ancient and rare. His beard and hair are all white, but his eyebrows are clear, gleaming with wisdom.

It is hard to believe that people who came to this small courtyard for the first time, Huo Changyang, who was once the veteran of the three dynasties of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the emperor of the two dynasties, now retreats at home, is such a simple and awkward life.

It's completely different from the extravagant pleasure in the noble circle nowadays. Huo Changyang wears clothes and green shirts every day, and the bamboo house courtyard. Even a small vegetable plot was opened in the backyard and some fruits were planted.

Mei's wife Hezi, leisurely and peaceful, all the wind and rain outside seems to have nothing to do with him. Even before the death of Emperor Jing Yao and the enthronement of the new emperor, he continued to report illness at home and did not show up.

I didn’t show up because Zhizhu was in control, so I knew the overall situation, but things are different today.

With a long sigh, Huo Changyang sat down on the chair with a tired expression and asked: "Is it determined?"

"The Queen Mother is still blocking the news, but yesterday the Meiyuan Hospital of the Taiyuan Hospital secretly sent the news, it should be correct." Huo Donglai looked solemn.

Qin Cong’s condition today began after receiving Qin Jian’s murder in Hot Spring Villa. Suddenly, he fainted because of a severe heartache. After that, the imperial doctor treated him in time, and he woke up, and he was weak and unbearable.

I thought that I would recover slowly after recuperating for a while, but I didn't expect it to be abrupt. What made him even more displeased was that the Queen Mother Huo even wanted to hide it from them.

"It's not easy for your sister in the palace. Things were not going well before, and it is inevitable that she is anxious." Huo Changyang understands what his son is anxious about, "Things have passed, don't have any more knots, just a daughter. Why bother about this little thing."

"The son didn't care, it was the queen mother that she couldn't pay attention to it." Huo Donglai cried out injustice. Although he felt sorry for Huo Youjuan, he also nodded in agreement with the previous plan. For the sake of the overall situation, he was already used to abandoning some thing.

Huo Changyang shook his head: "Did you say how much time is left?"

"Mei Yuanzheng means that it can last for about half a year at most. But I heard that the Queen Mother has secretly dispatched staff to go to the south to find a hidden doctor."

"Hey, she is really getting more and more confused. Then you help her clean up, don't leak the news because of this."

"The son has sent someone to keep up." Huo Donglai frowned, "I'm afraid that Pei Ling will also get news."

"After all, I can't keep it. It just depends on how long it can be delayed." Huo Changyang gave a wry smile.

Originally thought that the new emperor ascended the throne, the Huo family can guarantee at least 20 years of stability, and Pei Ling, an old opponent, can slowly grind, who would have expected a sudden change in the situation.

"There seems to be a concubine in the palace who is pregnant?"

"It's going to give birth in the next few days, but I don't know whether it's a man or a woman. But even a son, I'm afraid..." Huo Donglai disagrees. Even if he gives birth to a male fetus, what can a half-year-old baby do? I don't know how long I can live. Nowadays, even in aristocratic homes, it is common for babies to die. Qin Cong died of a boy when he was the prince.

"After all, it is better than nothing. There is also the one in the imperial tomb, you can also contact."

In the dim bamboo house, the two of them talked in whispers about the most secret things in the world, and every word was related to the fate of this huge empire.

**********************

Under the bright candlelight, Qin Nuo turned to look at the jade material in his hand. This is what he just picked from the Songshan store, a good piece of pure white jade.

Simple processing has been carried out by the master in the shop, and it is basically seen that it looks like a small beast, but the specifics depend on the skill of carving people.

Recalling that during the day when she received the little snowman with a slightly regretful expression in joy, Qin Nuo personally started to sculpt a special gift.

The kind of mood that wants her to show a smile, this is the feeling of love.

In the dead of night, Qin Nuo also thought about his feelings for Huo Youjuan. It is undeniable that he likes her very much. Was it because of appearance, color, emotion, talent, and talent, or pity, pity and love... He didn't know these things, but when faced with a young girl, the feeling of rapid heartbeat was very clear.

A cat carved by hand, although the knife is rough and the cat is terrible, it is still a piece of my own mind. The white jade is pure and flawless, and will not dissipate as easily as fresh snow. Qin Nuo thoughtfully used a red ribbon to tie the newly-baked little thing with a scarf, and then sent someone to the Yingguo Palace.

I don't know what Huo Youjuan's mood will be after receiving this specified gift to her. Qin Nuo looked forward to the next meeting very much.
