Chapter 209 Secret

There are only a few words about clothes. Chunxia is not really interested in a piece of clothes at this time. She just finds a topic to talk about it and eases the atmosphere so as not to be relatively speechless and embarrassed. After saying this, there is no topic. After being silent for a while, Chunxia finally told the story of running away from home. Finally, she sighed and said sadly, "Miss Su, I didn't doubt your words that day, but I just didn't believe that my parents who have always been loving would treat me like this. I thought the girl just didn't understand my family, so... I was so stupid. I have been in the palace for so many years, maybe I don't know my family at all."

Su Yiqing's hand holding the needle paused for a moment, and then said lightly: "I just saw through human nature, or had similar experiences, so I reminded you that after I said those words, I regretted it the next day, and felt that I shouldn't say nonsense... Your parents may not be cold-hearted. There are no parents in the world who don't love their children. The palms and backs of their hands are all flesh, but in the end they are divided into thin or thick flesh. If you have such a thing, the Lin family will naturally not want to get married again, but some so-called scholarly families are very dirty doing things. They don't want this marriage and are afraid of falling into the trap. They are even more worried that you can get another family and get revenge after quitting the bride. So they want to change the bride. Your parents will inevitably refuse at the beginning, but they can't bear the coercion, so they change their words." After Su Yiqing analyzed, Chunxia remained silent.

Su Yiqing saw the resentment in her eyes, and seemed very sad, and she was mixed with mixed feelings. Knowing that she was a smart girl, smart people would think more things than others, she just now deliberately ignored another possibility. Chunxia's parents might not be coerced, but were tempted. Anyway, the result was the same, so she chose to be less hurt, but Chunxia might have thought of this, out of sympathy or unbearable for the woman, she took the initiative to ask: "Miss Chunxia, ​​what are your plans in the future?"

When talking about the plan, Chunxia was confused again. She only knew that she could not marry the second son of Lin who was a good man with a violent temperament. She worked hard to survive in the palace. If she really wanted to marry such a man and live carefully, it would be better to die than to live. If she had known it, she would have been better to stay in the palace and be a palace maid for the rest of her life.

Seeing this, Su Yiqing whispered: "I will leave the capital in two days. I have paid three months for the rent here. There are two months left. You can stay here for a few more days. Think about it carefully. This place is very quiet. It is not easy to be found. The landlord is a little bit powerful nearby, and no rascals dare to cause trouble in this alley." "Miss Chunxia, ​​people always want to have a support when they are confused, but I would like to advise you, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on the sky and the earth. Others will not give you benefits for no reason." Su Yiqing said, and stood up, stuffed a few clothes into the bag, and wanted to leave as soon as she lifted them.

"Miss Su, please wait a moment." Chunxia suddenly stood up, looking very nervous. Then she seemed to have made up some decision and gritted her teeth. "What if I know a secret from Empress Xu?"

Su Yiqing frowned slightly and sat back slowly. She said slowly, "Miss Chunxia, ​​do you need to know what you are talking about? Do you know who I am? Even if you know any secret, you can't just find someone to sell it at a good price. For me, the more valuable things are, the less you won't sell them to people who don't know the details. I'm afraid of encountering fakes, which is not a loss of money."…

"But usually it is said that valuable things are only in the hands of strangers or even enemies." Chunxia became calm, completely different from before.

Su Yiqing smiled slightly. No surprises, no one could come out of the palace safely, no one was innocent or childish. What they were best at was disguising and showing weakness was deeply imprinted in their bones. She neither agreed nor refused, and just looked at Chunxia.

Chunxia thought for a while and said, "Miss Su just said that she was afraid of buying fakes, it was not a loss of money, but what I wanted was money. Miss Su, you are not short of money, at least not what I need. As for whether I said it is true or not, it depends on the girl's own judgment. If you want to buy something of good quality and low price, you have to take risks, right?"

"How much do you want?" Su Yiqing asked directly.

Chunxia stretched out a finger.

Su Yiqing said: "Ten thousand taels? Gold or silver?"

The secret of the royal family is that 10,000 taels of gold is not expensive, but she can’t get it at the moment, it should be 10,000 taels. After all, for a civilian girl like Chunxia, ​​10,000 taels is already a huge amount of property, and it is easy to exchange it into gold.

"One thousand taels." Chunxia corrected this number.

Su Yiqing was a little surprised. One thousand taels were not much for ordinary people, but after she asked whether ten thousand taels were gold or silver, the fool knew how to choose. Chunxia was equivalent to automatically lowering the price after the buyer offered.

Seeing Su Yiqing's surprise, Chunxia smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm not greedy, but I can't hold too much. I'm worried that I can't get anything in the end. Every time I give rewards in the palace, many rewards are different. I always take the share that I deserve. Even if I'm the first to choose, don't want the best or the worst. Taking the best is easy to attract jealousy. The worst will be considered artificial or have a bigger plan and look down on this thing. Now I'm very satisfied that a secret that is difficult to distinguish between true and false can get one thousand taels."

Su Yiqing also understood that this is indeed the choice of smart people. If you want more, those who want to buy cannot afford the money or feel distressed will inevitably have other ideas. If you want less, you cannot solve the dilemma and take the risk of leaking secrets in vain. One thousand taels are very suitable, so he nodded to indicate that the deal was completed.

Chunxia said: "The Empress hid a person in a place called Shitou Village at the foot of Chunshan. She seemed to be a very important person. I accidentally knew that since I just arrived at the Empress, I have been paying attention to it for many years. The Empress once said that this person can influence the overall situation of the world."
