Quick Travel: Sweet Pet Script from God

Chapter 324 The personal bodyguard of the proprietress of the rouge shop (10)

After finishing lunch, Chi Qing mysteriously took out something.

Mu Shihuai looked at her palm and saw a delicately embroidered peace charm.

I almost finished it last night, so I stayed up all night and finished the embroidery directly.

"Miss, you..." Mu Shihuai was a little surprised, "Did you give it to me?"

Chi Qing nodded, "It must be for you, otherwise why would I show it to you?"

She tugged on it, and a hidden pocket appeared on the peace charm.

"It's made of iron sheets and wood chips. I asked someone to lay it out when I was in Lin'an. You can put some of your commonly used medicines in it."

Chi Qing could not prevent Mu Shihuai, a general, from being injured at all, but he could try to reduce the pain caused by the injury.

Chi Qing was thinking this after he broke into her bathroom on the first night and saw the injuries on his body.

Mu Shihuai understood, no wonder the peace charm looked a bit thick.

"Then I would like to thank you, Miss."

Mu Shihuai took the peace charm from Chi Qing's palm and put it into the secret pocket of his underwear.

After ten days of drifting on the canal, the group finally arrived in the capital.

The person who came to pick him up was the housekeeper of the Zhenguo Palace. He was shocked when he saw a young girl following his master and calling her eldest lady.

Uncle Mu began to brainstorm, and began to think about whether the deceased master and his wife had an unknown daughter.

Mu Shihuai could tell at a glance what Uncle Mu was thinking, and said helplessly: "Uncle Mu, don't think nonsense."

Then he introduced to Chi Qing: "Miss, this is the housekeeper of my house. Just call him Uncle Mu."

Chi Qing called Uncle Mu sweetly, and Uncle Mu responded cheerfully and led the group back.

"Uncle Mu, things have been sorted out in the other courtyard."

"Master, it's been packed."

Although Mu Shihuai is now the Duke of Zhen Guo, he feels that anyone who calls him Master Guo Gong makes him old, so everyone in the Zhen Guo Duke still calls him Young Master.

Mu Shihuai couldn't directly take Chi Qing back to live in his mansion. No matter how well he hid it, he couldn't hide it from those in higher positions.

This damages the eldest lady's reputation.

Over there is the house in his mother's name. It's not big, but it's enough for a young lady to live comfortably.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of an elegant courtyard.

Mu Shihuai helped Chi Qing out of the carriage and said, "I have to apologize to the eldest lady for living here for a while."

Chi Qing looked at the large courtyard in front of him, but for a moment he didn't understand where his grievances lay.

Mu Shihuai's house was not considered big, meaning it was not as big as the Duke's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Everything in the house is ready-made, Chi Qing just needs to ask Qiu Rui and Dong Kui to arrange it.

Mu Shihuai helped clean up. He did not leave after dinner and moved into the house next to Chi Qing.

Although the eldest lady cannot be allowed to live in the Zhenguo Palace, it does not say that he cannot come out to live there.

Once you leave the Zhenguo Palace, you can hide your traces very well.

It is inevitable that there will be spies from the emperor and several princes in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion. This is something that everyone is well aware of, and it cannot be completely absent.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish. Everyone knows this truth.

Mu Shihuai had not yet returned to the court. On the surface, he was still a powerless general.

Except for the necessary time to deal with official duties, he still hangs around Chi Qing at other times.

Chi Qing is not in a hurry to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to recognize his relatives. This requires long-term planning.

Although the Prime Minister's family was on the decent side in the Honkai Impact plot, she wasn't sure what they thought about her unsuspecting niece.

She needed to figure out the situation first.

In this case, Chi Qing was busy with the shop first.

There are many shops under the name of the Duke of Zhenguo. Under Mu Shihuai's instruction, Uncle Mu specially picked one with a good location.

As soon as Uncle Mu made the arrangements, Mu Shihuai couldn't wait to drag Chi Qing to Zhuque Street.

Zhuque Street is close to the Imperial City and has a large flow of people. More importantly, the people coming and going here, whether they are ordinary people or dignitaries, come here.

Chi Qing glanced at Mu Shihuai, who was smiling dazzlingly, and asked, "The rent of this shop is not low, right?"

Mu Shihuai stood next to Chi Qing, looking down at her seriously: "Since I have participated in the eldest lady, I must prepare the best."

Chi Qing was naturally very satisfied with the location of this shop. In addition to her own rouge-making skills, two little maids were also her assistants.

While decorating the shop, you can also start preparing some rouge and balm to apply first.

Mu Shihuai was very attached to Chi Qing and basically followed her wherever she went.

"Ah Huai, are you okay after you return to Beijing?" she asked curiously.

Mu Shihuai gently rubbed her head and said, "I am the eldest lady's personal guard, so of course I have to follow her."

But Mu Shihuai wanted to take some time off, but things kept coming to him one after another.

"Miss, be careful."

Mu Shihuai pounced on Chi Qing and held him in his arms.

He drew his sword and cut off the flying arrow neatly.

Chi Qing was startled and asked, "Who is he?"

Mu Shihuai shook his head and walked to the back of the shop while protecting Chi Qing.

The strange thing is that after that arrow, there was no more danger.

After confirming safety, the two returned to the shop.

Chi Qing walked to Broken Arrow, knelt down and observed for a while, then removed the arrow tail.

"Ah Huai, look at this."

There was a small note tucked into the nock of the arrow.

Mu Shihuai also squatted beside Chi Qing and opened the note, but there was nothing on it.

"This?" Chi Qing looked at Mu Shihuai.

Mu Shihuai read the note carefully and took Chi Qing to the back of the shop.

"This is a special kind of paper and requires a special technique to reveal it."

Mu Shihuai soaked the paper and then dried it with a fire folder.

The words above slowly appeared, and it read: "The day after tomorrow, at the top of the Zuixiang Tower."

"News from the Crown Prince." Mu Shihuai confirmed.

Now that the prince and the third prince are fighting fiercely, they must consolidate their power.

Chi Qing also learned about some of the above things from Mu Shihuai intermittently, and also knew a lot about the two princes.

"The prince wants to win over you, right?"

Mu Shihuai nodded, "The previous chase was carried out by the third prince. I don't want to take sides, but he seems to have acquiesced that I belong to the prince."

"So what does A Huai think?"

Mu Shihuai smiled and said, "If he thinks I am, then why can't I be."

Chi Qing looked at Mu Shihuai worriedly and hesitated, "Then..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mu Shihuai had already guessed what Chi Qing was going to say.

"Don't worry, the Prime Minister is also a princeling."

Mu Shihuai rubbed Chi Qing's hair with a smile and said, "Are you so worried about a conflict between us?"
