Chapter 119 Palace Flowers

A group of celestial missionaries then invited Zhang Zhe to speak in a sparsely populated area outside, apparently to discuss some matters.

Zhang Zhe is naturally not afraid.

He secretly carried some Tianjiao tokens and secret letters found on Gong Yicheng's body, and took this opportunity to gain the trust of this group of people. He turned to tell Jiang Xuening, "Don't wander around, wait for me to come back."

Seeing Jiang Xuening nod in agreement, he went with everyone.

Jiang Xuening was obedient and didn't wander around.

Just now, it's not as dark and chaotic as last night, with no one paying attention. Instead, the sky is bright, and even if someone's face is painted with black gray, it can be seen that their facial features are excellent, and they are the embryo of a beautiful woman. Xiao Dingfei further revealed her daughter's family identity. As soon as Zhang Zhe left, everyone's eyes scanned her face.

Xiao Bao, who was tied in a braid in the corner, glanced at her for a while.

After a while, I didn't know where to find a basin of water, but I filled it with water from the stream and smiled at her, saying, "It turns out it's Mr. Zhang's sister. She neglected last night. Did you wash your face, sister?"

Jiang Xuening couldn't help but be taken aback.

She instinctively looked at Xiaobao's fingers, probably washed in the morning, and the ink stains on her hands from yesterday were gone.

The other person looked at him with a sparkling gaze.

But she felt a slight chill in her heart.

Zhang Zhe has already given her an identity, claiming to be his sister. This little treasure, who belongs to the Heavenly Sect on the surface but doesn't know the root of the matter, personally brings water, which cannot help but make people speculate about its intentions.

Turning their eyes, everyone else was also washing up by the stream.

Next, she had to walk a long way. When the water was brought to her face, she didn't wash it and continued to have a black and gray face. She was afraid of feeling guilty and worried that there was no silver in this place of three hundred taels, which might lead to suspicion. Jiang Xuening pondered the lightest of the two harms, then calmly smiled and politely expressed her gratitude, truly bowing down to wash her face.

Xiaobao looked at her curiously like a child on the street looking at a beautiful girl, and didn't leave.

The cold stream in the early morning cleared away the dust and grime.

The young girl's beautiful and youthful face was revealed, even without any makeup, it looked a bit too beautiful in this wilderness.

Most of the other members of the Heavenly Sect and the prisoners who escaped from the prison were rough and rough. The most beautiful ones they had ever seen in their daily lives were probably the girls next door or the prostitutes smearing makeup in the brothels. How could they have had the chance to see such a beautiful and beautiful appearance?

At first glance, many people were stunned.

After seeing this face, Xiaobao quietly frowned, but no one noticed. Then he clapped his hands and exclaimed happily, "Sister, you look so beautiful!"

Jiang Xuening wanted to take this opportunity to have a conversation with the little child and explore the truth.

Unexpectedly, before she could even speak, Xiaobao had already patted his head and said, "I forgot something so bad," before running away in a flash.

Everyone just said that the child forgot something and hurriedly went to do it, but they didn't care.

Jiang Xuening, however, felt that something was wrong in her heart and did not go to join the crowd. She only walked out and looked at the dense forest where everyone was discussing from a distance.

She washed her face clean, and her eyebrows were wet with water droplets. She was still wearing men's clothing that didn't fit well, and even some were too simple. However, it looked more and more like a clear water lotus, and a divine light flowed between her glances.

So Zhang Zhe finished discussing with everyone and walked out of the dense forest, only to find that the situation seemed somewhat strange.

Everyone who saw him along the way was actually smiling, even a bit attentive.

A bandit who had already changed his prison clothes voluntarily handed over a pancake as he passed by and smiled, saying, "Mr. Zhang hasn't eaten anything this morning, haven't he? Let's make a cushion first."

Zhang Zhe glanced at him and said, "Thank you very much, but I'm not hungry."

Another strong man, with a scar on his face, warmly welcomed him and said, "Mr. Zhang is truly extraordinary. I, Old Qiu, have never seen such a powerful person in a long time. Last night, we misunderstood. I didn't expect that the petite little girl turned out to be your sister. Don't worry, we will definitely not let anyone hurt her at all along the way."

Zhang Zhe: "..."

Before he could answer, a member of the Heavenly Sect who was tidying up his saddle next to him sneered contemptuously and interjected, "What kind of identity do you have as a girl? You're so eager to eat swan meat, and you're not afraid of burning your mouth."

The strong man with a scarred face suddenly changed his complexion.

Zhang Zhe finally understood which part of the play it was, because when he walked back, he looked up and saw Jiang Xuening standing under the front wall. The girl was still wearing his robe, but her palm sized white face had already been exposed. She was looking up at the murals on the wall that had been eroded by wind and rain, and the light of the sky shone lightly through the mist on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, making her unable to move her gaze away.

And at this moment, there was also an eye-catching figure next to her.

It was the Tianjiao Dingfei young master who, when everyone was discussing things, looked bored and made an excuse to slip away.

Xiao Dingfei was not at all interested in the nonsense of the Heavenly Sect. When he saw Zhang Zhe taking out the token, he was completely convinced that the old turtle grandson of Gong Yicheng must have died. After careful consideration, it was better to come out and take a stroll.

After all, he was still thinking about the beauty outside.

When he walked back, he happened to see Jiang Xuening standing under the dilapidated temple wall. For a moment, he thought it was the Wushan Goddess in the painting, and couldn't help but approach.

The portraits outside the temple are nothing more than Buddha statues, let alone collapsed, collapsed, and the colors have already become a paste, not very clear to see.

What's nice about this?

Xiao Dingfei was ignorant and inexperienced. He wanted to pretend to understand a few words, but after searching his heart and soul, he couldn't come up with any good words. He simply approached him with an unusually straightforward tone and said, "Miss, do you have any interest in Buddhism?"

Jiang Xuening was just waiting for Zhang Zhe, but also wary of those who came out of the Heavenly Sect and the Heavenly Prison. It was not easy to get too close, so she decided to stand under this wall and take a casual look.

Where is she like a learned person?

In her previous life, she was very similar to Xiao Dingfei in terms of "being ignorant and lacking in skills".

Earlier, a corner of her eye caught Xiao Dingfei's attention as he approached her. At this moment, she was not surprised to hear him talk and approach him. She chuckled inwardly and deliberately looked indifferent, saying, "I don't have much heart."

These few words simply leave no room for conversation.

If someone else heard it, they might have choked to death long ago, but Xiao Dingfei was not someone else after all.

His face didn't change for a moment, but he actually patted his palm and smiled, "That's just right. I don't understand anything at all. I hate these useless things when I see them. I didn't expect the girl to be uninterested either. This is really like-minded."

I haven't seen you in a lifetime, but this person is still as thick skinned as ever.

Jiang Xuening took a step aside and remained silent.

Xiao Dingfei followed up very naturally and said, "Does the girl live in the capital? I have also been in the capital for some time, but I haven't heard of her name. It's really lazy. My name is Dingfei, and the girl can just call me by her first name. I don't know how to call the girl?"

Jiang Xuening raised her eyes, but unexpectedly saw Zhang Zhe walking towards Xiao Dingfei from behind. For some reason, she thought of the phrase "Sister" that this person had just said to her. She smiled at Xiao Dingfei and said, "Mr. Zhang's surname is Zhang, and I am his sister. So, what does Young Master Fei think I should call him?"

Xiao Dingfei: "..."

===Kunning Section 155===

The question just now was originally because he didn't believe Zhang Zhe's nonsense at all! The result was actually choked back by Jiang Xuening for this reason, so frustrating!

He raised his finger and gently lifted the strand of hair hanging from his forehead, looking charming and charming. He quickly adjusted the expression on his face and said very directly, "I wonder how old the girl is, whether she is married or not, and how many people in the family?"

Jiang Xuening's gaze fell behind him without speaking.

Zhang Zhegang came to stand nearby and happened to hear Xiao Dingfei's words. His originally expressionless face became increasingly dull, and his voice became cold as he said, "Young Master Dingfei has asked too many questions."

Xiao Dingfei only then realized that there was someone behind him.

The words were heard by someone, but upon reflection, he was not afraid of this person.

Who told him to call himself his sister?

He turned his head with a smile, showing a sincere expression on his face. However, he was not angry at Zhang Zhe's cold words and appeared to have excellent manners. He said, "Not much, not much, not much at all. In fact, I am not very old at the age, and my life has not been settled yet. It's just that my background is not good, and I have no relatives at home, so I have to plan everything for myself. When I saw my sister just now, I felt very compatible.". Mr. Zhang has come just in time. Do you have your sister's birth date and eight characters

The birth date and eight characters are required for proposing marriage

This person is pulling his abacus as if it's very loud!

Jiang Xuening couldn't help but twitch slightly when she heard it.

Zhang Zhe's impression of this person instantly deteriorated to the extreme, with a frosty color between his eyebrows and eyes, unusually cold. He simply said, "I don't know."

Xiao Dingfei felt it was unreasonable and said, "She's your sister, how could you not know?"

Zhang Zhe's face turned even worse.

Jiang Xuening chuckled as she watched.

Zhang Zhe stopped looking at Xiao Dingfei, lowered his gaze, and turned to her, saying, "Let's go."

Jiang Xuening inexplicably became happy, squinting her eyes and smiling at Xiao Dingfei. She also said "Let's go" and walked straight past this person, following in Zhang Zhe's footsteps.

The Heavenly Sect has already discussed and it is expected that the imperial court will send troops everywhere to search for such a big incident as robbing the Heavenly Prison. Although their hiding place is remote, it is inevitable that they will leave traces along the way. It is safer to arrive in Tongzhou as soon as possible.

So everyone will set off immediately.

The only people discussing this itinerary are from the Heavenly Cult, but those who have escaped from the prison are not among them. The Heavenly Sect didn't ask for their opinions on the plan, which caused some sensitive people to secretly frown.

A few people couldn't help but quietly look at Meng Yang.

Unexpectedly, Meng Yang stood up from that corner, completely indifferent to his appearance, as if he was going everywhere without any objections, and followed the group of people from the Heavenly Sect forward.

The horses are limited, but the Heavenly Sect has already trusted Zhang Zhe and said that he works for the people of Dujun Mountain and dare not neglect them, so they have also allocated a horse for him.

Zhang Zhe is tidying up the saddle.

Jiang Xuening stood obediently beside him with her hands behind her back, observing his expression and suppressing a smile, saying, "Brother doesn't even know my birthday, is that not good?"

Her word "brother" sounds normal, but in reality it carries a hint of sarcasm and ridicule.

Zhang Zheruo did not know that she was also reborn, or perhaps she could not hear the depth; In my previous life, I had a good understanding of her, and knowing her temperament, I could tell that she was not very happy.

But he can only pretend not to know.

The hand pulling the reins stopped and he said in silence, "As a temporary measure, please forgive Miss Jiang Er."

Jiang Xuening said, "But as Mr. Zhang has said, I am your sister. If you don't know my birthday, won't others ask about it in the future?"

Zhang Zhe remained silent.

Jiang Xuening said, "Why don't Mr. Zhang ask about my birthday?"

Zhang Zhe remained silent.

Jiang Xuening felt angry in her heart, but she didn't dare to indulge her previous life's indulgence. She entrusted Qu Baba and said, "I am born on the 16th day of the first lunar month, but there are not many days left."

Zhang Zhe certainly knows her birthday.

She is the queen.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, even after Xiao Shu entered the palace, Shen Jie would always hold a palace banquet for her, invite a theater troupe, hang lanterns full of flowers in the palace, and even invite the selected Hanlin scholars from the previous year to write poems and essays for her. The civil and military ministers were also willing to please the emperor and offer various rare treasures.

She was overjoyed at the sight of treasures, but bored after listening to poetry and prose.

He has clean sleeves and nothing to offer.

That night, in the imperial garden, there were jade trees and a feast of wine and wine, filled with colorful articles and a gathering of high-ranking scholars, most of whom were people with great achievements.

At that time, the emperor sent people to appreciate the palace flowers.

He is not sociable, comes and goes alone, or is afraid that others will not like him, so he joked that most of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty came from the imperial examination system, and they have all had flowers at the Qionglin Banquet, except for Zhang Shilang, who came from the imperial examination and was not well intentioned.

Shen Jie probably drank a lot too, and even smiled and asked someone to hand him a flower.

The literati of the Da Qian Dynasty had elegant generations, who also loved to write beautiful characters and hairpin flowers on their heads.

Zhang Zhe is not of this kind.

He took the palace flower, thanked the Holy Grace, held it in his hand, and did not put it on.

After the banquet, I left the table for a while, so I went out a bit late.

As I walked down the corridor, I ran into Jiang Xuening.

At that time, her cheeks blushed and she didn't know where she came from. There was no palace attendant beside her, and her clear and foggy eyes were not very cheerful. Seeing his weakness, he hid it in a thick shell and sneered, "Other adults have at least offered their birthday gifts, but Mr. Zhang is better off. He just casually wrote a congratulatory post and said it. Is this how our palace makes you avoid it?"

Zhang Zhedao said, "I am humble and have nothing to offer."

She seemed to only ask a question without any intention of pursuing it.

Then his eyes flickered, and he saw the palace flower in his hand. His expression changed a bit, and he even curled his lips and asked him, "Cold and humble return, but does anyone like it?"

When the emperor just rewarded the palace flowers, Jiang Xuening was not there.

She must have misunderstood.

Zhang Zhe wanted to explain, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized: why did he want to explain?

Jiang Xuening felt even angrier when she saw him not speaking, but her face showed no signs at all. She walked closer to him step by step, with a smile on her lips. She gently reached out and pulled the palace flower out of his hand.

She has slender fingers, the most beautiful.

Then he leisurely adorned the palace flower on his head, trembling as it bloomed on the side of the Golden Step Shaker, saying, "I don't think you can bring out any rare treasures. Let's accept this flower in my palace. Is it beautiful?"

He doesn't know how to answer.

Jiang Xuening then said, "If you dare to say 'not good-looking', I will see the Holy One in my palace and go tell him that someone in the palace has taken a liking to you and privately imparted knowledge to you."

He sat upright, how could he be afraid of her talking nonsense?

Just the colorful palace lamps hanging on the corridor for a while, her graceful figure in palace attire was thin in the shadow. The palace flower was adorned with trembling tassels of golden steps, adding a touch of startling beauty to her pale face, which pierced his eyes.

Perhaps the ghost has lost its mind.

He didn't argue, just said, "It looks good."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xuening's face changed when she heard this. She coldly picked off the palace flower and threw it at his feet, sneering at him, "You really hooked up with some girl in the palace. What kind of gentleman am I, Zhang Zhe?"

After speaking, she turned around and left.

He was left alone on the corridor, and it took him a long time to pick up the flower on the ground.

Zhang Zhe thought he was about to forget that scene, but now it came to his mind, but it was so clear that it was completely realized.

Jiang Xuening still looked at him, secretly dissatisfied, "I'll tell you once, did Mr. Zhang remember?"

Zhang Zhe thought to himself, how could I not remember your birthday?

But he only suppressed the tide of thoughts and slowly said, "Remember."
