Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 143 Gongsun Linglong's Sophistry? Red Lotus: Arrest her!

Nongyu stayed at the post station, but that didn't mean she lost contact with Zilanxuan.

She still has a deep affection for Zi Nu and Zi Lan Xuan.

Nongyu would often go back to Zilanxuan with Yingjing.

Ying Jing was happy to agree, otherwise he would have no reason to go to Zilan Pavilion.

Han Fei remained a regular at Zilan Pavilion, living a life of debauchery and dissipation.

Of course, he might also have stayed in Zilan Pavilion to gain the support of Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang.

However, under the influence of Winview, many things have changed.

Han Fei is indeed very charismatic, and Wei Zhuang still maintains a good personal relationship with him, believing that he simply lacks opportunity and luck.

But personal relationships are just that—personal relationships.

Without the position of Minister of Justice, Han Fei is now essentially a penniless commoner, except for his status as a prince.

This is not enough to make Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu risk establishing a new Han state with him, or going against Ji Wu Ye.

The quicksand has lost its fertile ground for growth.

……

In the pavilion of Zilanxuan, Nongyu was playing the zither, while Zinu stood quietly to one side with one hand on her hip.

Ying Jing leaned against the windowsill and looked down, while Han Fei sat beside him, drinking orchid wine.

Of course, there's also Wei Zhuang, holding the Shark Tooth sword, sitting alone in a corner, lost in thought.

"What is Lord Changxin looking at?"

"According to the intelligence from Luo Wang, Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Yifei will return to Xinzheng today."

"At the same time, the successors of the masters will also arrive around today."

……

The streets of Xinzheng are filled with shouts and calls, creating a bustling scene.

A simple yet elegant carriage slowly drove in from outside the city and finally stopped on the street.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and two women stepped down from it.

One was plump, with heavy makeup on her face, and looked quite frightening.

She was so thin and frail that a gust of wind could blow her over, making one feel pity at first glance.

"Sister Li, don't be upset. Your senior brother was never a good match for you."

Gongsun Linglong's strong, muscular arm linked with the slender woman beside her, her plump legs moving quickly.

"Don't mention him!"

Gongsun Li seemed a little angry. She tried to shake her hand as she spoke, but she was too thin to break free and could only helplessly follow behind Gongsun Linglong.

"Come on, there haven't been any good places along the way in Korea, but it's rare to find something interesting in Xinzheng. Let's take a look around!"

Gongsun Linglong moved swiftly and nimbly forward.

Looking at this fairly prosperous street, Gongsun Li's eyes revealed a hint of novelty, and her interest gradually grew.

"This looks pretty delicious..."

"There's also a large beam, and it's even bigger than this one..."

"Sister Li, look! That mask over there is so beautiful!"

"I think so too. I'll buy it and give it to you!"

Thinking of the trouble she had caused along the way and the care she had received from the famous family in Wei, Gongsun Li also wanted to give Gongsun Linglong a small gift.

This is a snow-white mask.

A few red dots were left on her forehead as embellishments, along with her narrow eye sockets and slightly upturned nose.

All of this combined resembles a white fox-face mask, possessing a unique charm.

Of all the masks on the stall, only this one was truly unique; the others were rather underwhelming.

"I'll give it a try..."

Gongsun Linglong looked at the mask in her hand with satisfaction and couldn't resist trying it on.

But at this moment—

"Halt! I've got my eye on that mask!"

An arrogant voice rang out.

Following closely behind, a girl in a pink dress stood with her hands on her hips, looking at the mask with a hint of surprise in her bright, watery eyes.

There are such beautiful masks in Xinzheng. Now that Princess Honglian has seen them, how could she miss them?

Perhaps even Changxin-jun would like it!

"We've already paid!"

Gongsun Li spoke with some annoyance.

This was the first time she had given a gift to Gongsun Linglong, to thank her for taking care of her over the years.

"It's alright, this princess can give you double!"

Honglian waved her hand dismissively.

"you!"

Seeing the squad of guards following behind Honglian, Gongsun Li had no choice but to follow her heart.

This is South Korea after all, and going against the South Korean princess will not end well.

"Little Linglong, look!"

But Gongsun Linglong was not as easily swayed as Gongsun Li.

She knew that the person in front of her was a princess, but so what?

As a descendant of a renowned master, she has the ability to talk the dead back to life; how could she not fool a little girl?

"Your Highness, what you want is this mask I have, isn't it?"

Honglian didn't think much of it and just nodded vigorously.

"That's right, give it to me quickly, I can give you double, no, triple the price!"

Gongsun Linglong immediately laughed. She put the mask she was holding back on the vendor's stall and took another red and blue mask.

"Your Highness, please hand over the money and valuables, and I can sell you this mask right now."

Honglian was getting impatient: "Do you think I'm stupid? Why would I need that one in your hand? Of course I want the one on the stall!"

Gongsun Linglong, however, still had a smile on her face, but her smile was truly frightening because of the makeup on her face.

"Hehehe...Your Highness, if you want the mask from the stall, you should naturally go to the vendor. Why make things difficult for us?"

Honglian inhaled slightly through her delicate nose, sensing that something was amiss.

But he still tossed a few gold coins to the vendor and said, "Give me that mask."

The vendor didn't dare to cause any trouble and immediately reached out to take the white fox-face-like mask.

"Wait a minute!"

Gongsun Linglong jumped out again.

"This mask is mine; it's just temporarily placed here. How can you sell my things to someone else, boss?"

"Your Highness, how can you buy what belongs to me from someone else?"

A blush crept onto Honglian's smooth, collagen-rich face: "Didn't you put it back?"

Gongsun Linglong laughed even more happily: "Your Highness, you are mistaken. I am merely storing that mask there temporarily. Of course, it still belongs to me."

As she spoke, Gongsun Linglong glanced at the guards following behind Princess Honglian, who were even helping her carry things.

"It's like... Your Highness, when you entrust the things you buy to the guards for safekeeping, they still belong to the princess, and they have no right to dispose of them."

Honglian had a delicate, straight nose, fair skin, and clear, bright eyes. She nodded unconsciously.

“Then I’ll still pay you three times the price, and you sell me that mask.”

Gongsun Linglong shook her head and chuckled sweetly, "Your Highness, that mask is on someone else's stall right now, so why bother looking for me..."

Honglian was momentarily stunned, her two clear eyes filled with confusion.

But soon, she pricked up her ears and looked around, as if searching for something.

Immediately afterwards, it seemed as if Honglian had received some kind of signal.

A stunning smile suddenly bloomed on her fair, rosy face, her large, clear eyes narrowing into crescent moons.

"So, you dare to play tricks on this princess?"

"Catch me!"
