princess is fine

Xi Chao was walking back to Sun's house, still thinking about what his father said.It's not that she is still entangled in the matter of green smoke, but before leaving, her father actually said the same thing as Sun Lao, that is, to let her find a chance to leave the palace.

Saying that she doesn't want to leave that place is not in line with Xi Chao's temperament, but thinking of what she and His Highness have said, I feel that I have a responsibility in my heart. Now that I have made a promise, how can I easily renege on it?

Thoughts were churning in her mind, and she was wandering aimlessly by herself.

Because it was afternoon, the streets were not very lively, and although several shops were open, there was a hint of lethargy.When they came to a shop, people suddenly became lively.Even Xi Chao who was in a daze was attracted.

Xi Chao was no stranger to that shop, it was Boss Liu's dim sum shop.

Curious in her heart, she took advantage of her petite figure and squeezed into the crowd.

The chatter of people around him made Xi Chao understand what was going on.

It turned out that Boss Liu had a great apprentice by his side, who had followed him in the shop since he was a child. He was practical and capable, and he was also a great help to Boss Liu.A few months ago, this big apprentice brought back a person, saying that he was a cousin looking for an errand in the store.It just so happened that there was a shortage of manpower in the store, so Boss Liu agreed.After only a few months, Boss Liu discovered that something was wrong with this big apprentice.

That distant relative was a glib person, seeing that the apprentice was busy all day long, but he was still like a servant, so he said something incendiary to him, asking him to take Boss Liu's dim sum recipe and go out to do it alone.

The eldest apprentice was naturally unwilling, so the relative made a trick and stole some of the eldest apprentice's prescriptions.Boss Liu noticed that the relative was not being honest, so he told the senior apprentice about it. As a result, the relative pretended to be an honest person, and the senior apprentice felt that his master wronged a good person and looked down on their family. There was also a gap.

As the saying goes, home and everything prosper.The same goes for doing business.Everyone had their own thoughts, and Boss Liu was worried that the apprentice was really in a hurry to go out and do it alone, so he thought of a way.

He deliberately handed over those prescriptions to the eldest disciple, and sure enough, he saw that the relative became treacherous and seized him.

Those regular customers of Liu's shop have seen what happened in the past few days. Now that this relative has been arrested, they can't argue with each other.

After everyone dispersed, Xi Chao wanted to leave, but suddenly someone grabbed his wrist.Xi Chao was about to struggle, but found out that it was an acquaintance, Gu Huaixiu who was supposed to be pondering medicinal materials at Sun's house.

"Don't leave in a hurry, there's more to come." Seeing her looking at him, Gu Huaixiu let go of her hand and looked at the shop that was about to close: "You must watch the full set when watching a play."

Seeing that he was watching the show, Xi Zhao felt a little doubtful, but suddenly he was grabbed by the belt, and before she realized it, she was already in mid-air, and when she came back to her senses, she was already on a tree.

It was late spring at this time, and the tree was considered to be lush with branches and leaves, which just hid the figures of the two people, but did not prevent them from looking at what was happening in the backyard of the shop.

Before Xi Chao could appreciate Gu Huaixiu's kung fu, he heard the voice of the great apprentice from below: "Master, cousin is just being confused for a while, I hope master will forgive him!"

The expression on Boss Liu's face was no longer as gentle as that in the shop, he looked at the relative who was already tied aside, and sneered: "I only spared his life for your sake. Otherwise, he will see the official now!"

The big apprentice was startled, and asked: "Master, he, he was just impulsive, and this prescription was not stolen, why did Master say that?!"

"Then you have to ask him, what is his relationship with Boss Li from Pingxiangzhai!" Boss Liu gritted his teeth and said these words, and then looked at the relative: "You didn't go to your cousin at all, but you were accepted by others. Instigate, come to steal my secret recipe, ruin my business, right or wrong!" Boss Liu has been in business for many years, and he has never seen ghosts and snakes before. .

"Here, you!" The big apprentice suddenly realized when he heard this, and he trembled angrily when he pointed at the man.

Seeing this scene from the tree, Xi Chao already understood Gu Huaixiu's so-called good show, and never thought that there was such a conspiracy behind it.She looked at Gu Huaixiu who had a smug look on her face and asked, "How do you know this is not over?"

"The shopkeeper is not an idiot. This kind of person must be locked up in the inner courtyard without sending him away. There must be something hidden." Gu Huaixiu grabbed her belt again. Fortunately, Xi Chao was mentally prepared for this. I wasn't as frightened as I was the first time.

When the two of them stood still, Gu Huaixiu sighed: "I didn't expect a person who runs a small business to have such a bearing. If there were such relatives in my family, he would have been beaten to death as early as when he had such thoughts." .”

Xi Chao was originally amazed at his lightness kungfu, but when he heard this, he became more and more puzzled: "You look like this, are you really a medical practitioner?" Leaving aside this violent and rude temper, this kung fu is not ordinary. All abilities of traveling doctor.

Gu Huaixiu glanced at her, then walked forward with his hands: "It's better not to be too curious as a human being."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk about his identity, Xi Chao didn't bother to ask any more questions, and returned the topic to Liu's shop: "I don't know how Boss Liu will deal with that person."

"Since he deliberately went around in circles in order to keep the big apprentice, he probably wouldn't do anything to that person. However, even if he doesn't do anything, I'm afraid another boss won't be willing." Gu Huaixiu said lightly. He reached out and knocked on Xi Chao: "Do you understand?"

Xi Chao glared at him, and then elaborated on what was on his mind: "When that man entered the shop of the Liu family, he must have thought in his heart that even if he couldn't get the secret recipe, he would break the relationship between the master and apprentice of the Liu family. Come on, no matter what the final result is, the Liu family's business will definitely suffer."

"You're smart, then Boss Liu didn't think about this level, so he went around this circle, but he didn't want to cool the hearts of his family, otherwise he would turn his back on him, and even if he had great skills, he wouldn't be able to do business well." .” Gu Huaixiu continued to explain.

"This... just a business requires so much thought, not to mention political affairs. Even the family relationship seems vulnerable." Xi Chao fell silent suddenly, and finally said these words.

Gu Huaixiu didn't care about the childish murmur, he stepped a little faster and said: "This has nothing to do with you and me, it's just a spectator, you little girl, you have a lot of feelings. With this time Why don't you think about the antidote for Xueshang."

Xi Chao quickly followed him, and when he heard this, his attention was immediately turned: "People say that the poison of Xueshang is a strange poison, why do I feel that you are so familiar with it?"

The corner of Gu Huaixiu's mouth twitched: "There is no distinction between medicine and poison, it all depends on one thought. I know this poison, so why is it so strange?"

"Have you seen Xueshang before?" Although Xi Chao was doubtful, he was full of affirmation.

"I've seen it before, but it's not made of blood, it's the original poison of the blood red snake." Gu Huaixiu seemed to have thought of something, and sighed leisurely: "At that time, my fourth prince of the Great Wei went to the North Desert to suppress bandits. The poison. All the medical officers were helpless, and finally found the ghost water lotus in my family's medicine list, which is the holy lotus. However, there is still a legend in it. Do you know who found the ghost water in the end? Lian?"

"Who?" Xi Chao's curiosity was aroused: "Could it be you?"

Gu Huaixiu laughed: "I don't have that ability, you should have met that person, he is my eldest prince of Wei, Gao Jinnian!"

"Gao Jinnian!" Xi Chao was really surprised: "How could he?"

"Although the royal family has no father and son, and the eldest prince and the fourth prince are not siblings of the same mother, when His Royal Highness learned that the fourth prince had been poisoned, he was very emotional, and even brought a team of personal soldiers into the northern desert to look for the ghost water lotus. After Gu Huaixiu finished speaking, he sighed again: "However, this happened many years ago. Since then, the fourth prince has guarded the frontier, and the first prince has the potential of the East Palace. The two are not very close. thick."

The fourth prince guards the frontier, and the eldest prince is not very close to him...

This king has never forgotten that the only way to revive the Zhou family is to rely on the battle at the border.And this king's younger brother who is stationed at the border really needs to be beaten...

You didn't come to your cousin in desperation at all, but you were instigated by someone to steal my secret recipe and ruin my business...

Then Boss Liu didn't consider this level, so he went around this circle, but he didn't want to cool the hearts of his family, otherwise he would turn his back on him, and no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to do business well...

This series of words tossed and turned in Xi Chao's mind, and suddenly an idea came to her. She frowned and clasped her hands tightly, trying to calm down and sort out everything carefully. When the conjecture in her heart gradually took shape, Xi The court suddenly settled there.

Gu Huaixiu's steps were already fast, but when he noticed Xi Chao's movements, he had already dropped several steps.

He turned around and looked at Xi Chao: "What are you dawdling about? Hurry up and keep up!"

Xi Chao took a deep breath: "I...I can't go back to the Sun Mansion now, I, I want to find His Highness!"

Hearing her words, Gu Huaixiu sneered, "You guys miss each other, it's the first time I've seen such a deep love between a master and a servant..." These words were full of teasing, but Xi Chao felt something was wrong : "Why miss each other?!"

"Just now a guest came to the Sun's Mansion, looking for you." As soon as Gu Huaixiu said this, Xi Chao seemed to have thought of something, and ran towards the Sun's Mansion.

Xi Chao entered the Sun Mansion, ignored the surprised eyes of the porter, and rushed directly into the main hall, still panting, but still couldn't help calling out: "Your Highness!"

The woman in the hall turned around when she heard the voice, and a crack appeared on Xi Chao's behavior on her usually serious and frosty face: "Miss Chao'er, let's talk after taking a breath."

Xi Chaoben was panting, but when he saw that the person in front of him was not, he choked for a moment before recovering and said, "Sister Zhihua?!"

Zhihua picked up the teacup on the side and handed it over: "Miss Chao'er, don't worry, Your Highness originally asked the servant girl to come and take a look quietly, but never thought that you were not here, which alarmed Mr. Sun."

"Your Highness asked you to come and see me?" Xi Chao yelled with some surprise, and thinking about his important affairs, he reached out to hold Zhihua: "Sister Zhihua, take me back to the palace, I have something to say." Tell Your Highness!"
