After the person explained his purpose of visit, Hong Zhong instructed Qing Ya to prepare water to help him bathe and dress. After all, after last night's torment, it couldn't be said that he was drenched in sweat, but he was definitely drenched in sweat. If he didn't take a bath, he really wouldn't feel comfortable.
After bathing and changing clothes, Hong Zhong sat in the carriage. Today, Hong Zhong specially picked out a red, flowing cloud brocade with beautiful crabapple patterns embroidered on it using golden threads. On her waist, there was a belt with a rainbow colored gem embedded, it looked extremely delicate and beautiful.
On each of her slender white fingers, there was a jeweled ring, and in her hand, she held a fan that she had found from who knows where. The fan bone was made entirely out of gold, causing her entire person to reveal only one piece of information, from inside to outside.
Regardless of the dumbstruck expressions of the servants beside him, Hong Zhong's mood while sitting in the carriage, was extremely beautiful. In his previous life, he was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage with his little sister. Although his life wasn't unspeakably tough, it definitely wasn't a good life.
In this life, she had finally been reborn into a family with a powerful father and the richest brother in the world. Then she wouldn't care about taste anymore.
Of course, doing everything wasn't as simple as just showing off one's wealth …
Palaces banquets were usually held at night. Today, asking Hong Zhong to enter the palace at noon was the orders given by the empress dowager herself, and at this moment, Hong Zhong was brought in by the palace maid and alighted from the carriage. This was one of the Southern Qi Royal Family's rules. Currently, other than the Emperor, Regent, and Empress Dowager, no one else in the Southern Qi was allowed to drive a carriage inside the Imperial Palace.
Amidst the crowd of people, Hong Zhong, who was covered with silky jade beads, felt for the first time that it wasn't easy to show off her wealth. For example, she had these gold chains, bracelets, pearl hairpins … That would truly be a heavy death!
He had to carry so much jewelry and so many roads on the 11th bus. It seemed like the most important thing for him to live a good life in ancient times was to improve his own transportation!
Since Hong Zhong was resting in Tung Wah Wah last night, shshewas also arranged to be there today. Just as she walked through the gates of the Tung Wah Wah, he saw Xiao Gongnv dressed in palace maid attire waiting in front of the door, waiting for Hong Zhong's arrival.
When they saw Hong Zhong's arrogant and domineering attire, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Bringing along so much gold and silver jewelry, their bodies shining with a golden light, what was this Third Miss trying to do? At the same time, she was also secretly envious of this rich man!
Very quickly, they retracted their gazes and blended in a slight smile: "This servant greets Third Miss."
"Forget it!" Hong Zhong took a big step forward, not even sparing them a glance. She did not expect that she would be able to be some kind of good friend of Xiao Gongnv's in the ancient palace. A servant was a servant, and a master was a master, whether it was in a TV show or a novel, they had all been betrayed by their servants in countless of times.
Betrayal was but an instant!
Bringing Qingya along, she walked into Tung Wah Wah's bedroom. For her, this place was considered very familiar, after all, she had stayed here last night.
Just as Hong Zhong sat down, a person dressed as a eunuch came in from the outside: "Lucky Third Miss, the luncheon today is located in Yanqing Hall, there is still about two hours to start. This servant is An Xiaohai from Longevity Palace, following Esteemed Empress Dowager's orders, I bring people to accompany Third Miss to rest for a bit, then we head to Yanqing Hall to attend the banquet." After saying that, he waved his hand towards behind him, and a few Xiao Gongnv people carried a tray, and placed a pot of good tea and a dozen types of exquisite snacks on the table.
"Right." Hong Zhong sat on the seat and replied as she raised her hand towards the elegance beside him. Qing Ya then took out a silver note and passed it to An Xiaohai. "It's been hard on you, Eunuch An. Take this silver and have some tea!"
"This servant thanks Third Miss." When An Xiaohai saw the 100 taels of silver, his eyes involuntarily lit up. It had to be known that the monthly salary of the palace servants were only 2 taels of silver. This 100 taels of silver as a reward was definitely not a small amount! Thinking this, the good impression he had of Hong Zhong immediately soared. Although this Third Miss looked extremely arrogant, he still understood the rules.
Seeing An Xiaohai leave excitedly with the silver notes, Hong Zhong couldn't help but sigh. As expected, money was a good thing! Whether it was ancient times or modern times, this money was not omnipotent, but without money, it was absolutely impossible! Thinking about this, Ye Xiao felt more expectation for the guy who he had never met, and she was also the legendary richest man in the world!
I wonder what kind of person that big brother is?
For Hong Zhong, who had been tormenting herself since last night, she was now exceptionally sleepy. She instructed Qing Ya to close the door and prepare to take a short rest. After all, she had not slept for sixteen hours!
He took off Jin Bu's hair and threw it on the dresser beside him. The golden peony was fine, but Jin Bu indeed looked heavy. After wearing it for a while, Hong Zhong was so tired that he almost died. If it wasn't for her own goals, she wouldn't have made herself look like a Christmas tree.
"Miss, why don't you have some snacks before you sleep?" She looked at Hong Zhong who was walking towards the bed and spoke with a little worry. The Miss looked tired. She hadn't had a proper meal since last night. If she was starving, the Young Master would skin her alive.
"No need, I just want to sleep right now." Hong Zhong waved his hand, preparing to pull away the silk blanket and crawl inside. However... As he lifted the thin blanket, he felt a foreign object quickly scurry over and attack Hong Zhong.
Using his instincts, Hong Zhong dodged to the side, barely dodging the unknown object. Soon after, he heard a few unusual sounds of "sizzling". He turned his head and saw two cobras looking at him from the top of the soft and fragrant bed.
Just now, it was a cobra that was spitting out its core. At this moment, it was also frantically crawling on the ground, giving out a "sizzling" warning of danger. Its target was the elegance on the table. As soon as the thin blanket was lifted, the serpent took the initiative to attack. Clearly, the serpent's attack power was extremely strong.
