The queen must start from the head

Chapter 6 Novice Tasks
"Agua Agu..." Accompanied by a low cry, a falcon with blue and black wings stretched out its claws as hard and sharp as iron hooks and landed on the bird stand beside the courtyard corridor.

The bird stand was set up in front of a side room. A young man in a white silk robe heard the screeching falcon, put down the book in his hand, and walked out of the room quickly.

He came to Faith Falcon, took off the sealed gold-plated letter box tied to the other party's leg, and took a closer look at the imprint on it, "Tianhai City? What big news can the side branch of that remote town have? It also used a thousand-mile Faith Falcon?"

Even though he was puzzled, he didn't dare to slack off. He summoned a boy in Tsing Yi to take care of the falcon and hurried to the master's study.

The Lin family is a big family that has stood in the Northern Qi Kingdom for hundreds of years. In each generation, only the head family can stay in the imperial city, and the other side branches send their belongings to various cities to develop the family business.

The master's family is full of talented people, has an extremely deep foundation in the imperial city, and has many means to control the side branches, so he is quite respected.Just like the shopkeeper Lin of Linji Silk Shop in Tianhai City, he is already a branch of the branch, but he still has awe for his master's family.When encountering a major event, the first thing I want to think about immediately is to report it to my master. My dream in this life is to return to my master's family one day.

Lin Zheng, the head of the Lin family of this generation, has great ambitions and extraordinary methods. In addition, the old man of the Lin family, who ranks among the third princes, endorses him. He has two outstanding sons, one literary and one military. Lin Zheng at this time can be said to be complacent.

After reading the letter from Tianhai City, Lin Zheng didn't think that such a young master would suddenly appear in that remote town, let alone a teenage girl.

However, just to be cautious, he decided to send someone to Tianhai City to have a look.Now is the time when all the countries are fighting endlessly and seeking talents. If Northern Qi can really get a great craftsman at this time, it will surpass other countries in terms of reputation.Of course, this does not include Daqin. Lin Zheng's brows tightened when he thought of this name. That country...is too scary.

In the most prosperous Zhengxin Street in the imperial city, there is a small three-story building. The color of this building is half black and half white. There is no plaque on the outside of the door, and the door is only half open on the white side.Compared with the scene of people coming and going and rubbing shoulders outside, the scene of empty houses is very strange.

The light in the building is also half dark and half bright.A table and chairs were set up on the bright side. An old man with gray hair and a summer shirt folded his hands on his lap, and was leaning on the chair with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, a strong wind hit the old man in the air, and the latter stretched out his hand unhurriedly, and the thing got into his palm like throwing himself into a net.

The old man opened his palm, and rubbed the pill in his hand with his fingers, revealing a small letter of faith, with a few simple words written on it: Tianhai City is suspected to have a master's work in the world.

"That's good news. You can send someone to check it out." After the old man muttered to himself, the note quickly disappeared from his hand, as if it had never appeared before.

Imperial City, Embroidered Women's Workshop.

"...I don't know the origin of that Mu Lian. I only found out that she appeared in Heshui Village for the first time more than ten days ago. And bring her home, this woman is very low-key, she rarely goes out and about, our people can't dig out much information about her from the villagers... The first time she left the village was to go to Tianhai City, after that, she was in Zhouji silk and satin Zhuang took out the embroidery of "Sunrise Mountain Journey", which attracted the attention of passers-by... and then there was an exhibition three days later."

A fair-skinned and beautiful green-clothed girl stood with her head bowed in front of a gorgeous string of colorful bead curtains, reporting the information she had collected to the people inside.If Mu Lian was here, she would be amazed that her whereabouts have been found out in less than a month since she came to this world.

There was a moment of silence behind the bead curtain, and the clouds of incense vaguely blocked the sight of people outside the curtain from looking inside the bead curtain.

It took a long time before a voice like the sound of heaven came out, "Go and buy a piece of her embroidery, I want to see it for myself."

"Yes, Miss." The green-clothed girl promised to step back and left the room.

After a while, another voice came from the bead curtain, but it was a man's voice, "Miss Yao, as long as you want, I can help you get Na Mulian's head. You are the only one who is worthy of it, Yao girl, that mere pariah girl is just playing a demon in a remote town! I can take them down at any time!"

"No need. I got the news that Lin Zheng has sent his second son Lin Jingwen directly to Heshui Village, and the people from Baiyelou have also dispatched. If you kill Namulian, it will be difficult for you." The woman's melodious voice There was a trace of regret in it, it was only because the name of a great craftsman should not be underestimated, although there were many forces in the Northern Qi Dynasty, no one was willing to move Na Mulian.

"A pariah, really hateful!" The man couldn't help cursing angrily in a low voice, but the woman stopped speaking.

Three days, fleeting.

The servant from Linji Silk and Satin Village had rushed to Heshui Village before dawn, and waited quietly at the gate of Zhou's small courtyard.

In the courtyard, Zhou Jingshuang was still sleeping in the air-conditioned room. Mrs. Zhou Wu had already got up to light the fire, made breakfast, and personally checked the things to be taken away for Mu Lian several times.Since she knelt down that night three days ago, she has long regarded herself as Mu Lian's housekeeper and old mother, taking care of all kinds of trivial matters for her and enjoying it at the same time.

Not long after, Mu Lian took a shower after performing the exercises, finished her breakfast, and went out with her things.

Mrs. Zhou Wu sent her to the carriage, watched her off for a long time, and then turned around and closed the door to go back to the house.

At the entrance of Heshui Village, a large area of ​​golden rice fields glistens with crystal dew in the morning light, and the smell of soil in the air is somewhat moist.The carriage of Linji Silk and Satin Village drove quickly through this country road and headed towards Tianhai City.

Not long after Mulian's carriage left, another exquisite carriage drove out of Zhang Lizheng's house in the village.

Zhang Li was very respectful, and looked at the young man with a jade-like face and elegant temperament in front of him, and said, "My lord is going to Tianhai City at this time, and it only takes half an hour to arrive. It happened to be the time when the city gates opened."

The young man smiled faintly, "Lao Zhangli is taking care of you these few days, Jing Wen would like to thank you here. When I go to the city and meet the prefect, I will definitely say something nice for you."

Zhang Lizheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly bowed his head, "Thank you Mr. Lin! Master Lin is so kind and virtuous, I will never forget it!" When he finished speaking and raised his head, there was no one of Lin Jingwen in front of him, only a carriage The back view of driving far away from this place.

At that time, a cute little face poked its head out from behind the door and asked softly, "Dad, has Mr. Lin left already?"

Zhang Lizheng said "hmm", he was still thinking about Lin Jingwen's words just now, if his name of Lizheng could be mentioned in front of the prefect, maybe he could really go to the city and become a small official.If he can still find some connections, it may not be impossible to become a small state-owned official in the Northern Qi Dynasty.

When he thought of this, his heart suddenly became hot.Then he glanced at his daughter, who was looking longingly at the carriage that had already reached the point where he could barely see the shadow. A bold idea suddenly came to Zhang Lizheng's mind.But if this is the case, what should Li Daniu do?Wait, he just tested the other party's tone, and he didn't officially send a matchmaker to his house to talk about matchmaking. What if the other party knew that he married his daughter to Mr. Lin?How could he, a soldier in the black-armored army who could not support his wife and children, compare with the imperial court official who was the number one scholar in high school the year before last and was now a fifth-rank official?

How to choose, Zhang Lizheng already had some concerns in his heart, but he had to listen to his daughter's thoughts.

"Xiaohua, tell daddy, do you like Mr. Lin or that rough man Li Daniu in your heart?"

"Father!" Zhang Xiaohua didn't expect her father to ask a question suddenly, her cheeks blushed immediately, she covered her face with a handkerchief for a while, and then said slowly, "I thought that the man in my heart must be the kind of man who stands up to heaven and earth, Brother Big Niu... ... and I are also childhood sweethearts, so we naturally have bravery and courage. However, it was only when I met Mr. Lin for the first time three days ago that I realized what a "gentleman is unparalleled in the world". The daughter's family is very poor, Zhang Xiaohua said this, her face was so red that she was about to bleed, she stomped her feet and turned her head, turned around and ran back to the room.

Leaving Zhang Li alone in the courtyard laughing, "Hahahaha! The girls are not allowed to stay!"

The carriage of Linji Silk and Satin Village was getting closer and closer to Tianhai City. Mu Lian was resting in the carriage with her eyes closed, when suddenly there was a "beep" in her ears, and she immediately opened her eyes and was startled.

"Drip! The host has completed the novice mission and successfully broke up the couple Zhang Xiaohua and Li Daniu in Heshui Village! Zhang Xiaohua has successfully moved on and fell in love with Lin Jingwen. Now the host is giving out a novice gift package, please check it!"

Mu Lian's face was filled with question marks.Who is Lin Jingwen?She's busy with embroidery these days, so she doesn't do anything?

"Drip, I sensed the host's doubts, and because I have the authority to know, I will give an answer here: Lin Jingwen is the second son of Lin Zheng, the head of the Lin family. Lin Zheng decided to send his second son here to investigate because he received a letter from the shopkeeper of Linji Silk and Satin Village. To find out whether the news that the host is a master is true. The other party stayed in Zhang Lizheng's house three days ago, and Zhang Xiaohua fell in love with him at first sight, and secretly agreed."

It turned out to be like this. In this way, wouldn't she just win the novice task?The feeling of lying down and winning... well, it feels good!

The system continued, "In addition, in the past few days, this person has entered Zhou's house to spy on the host's work. Since he did not pose malicious or threats to the host, he did not give the host a reminder at that time, and now he will give a supplementary explanation."

What?Has she ever been spied on? !

Mu Lian was taken aback, thinking that the other party was here to find out if she was a master, it seemed understandable to do this kind of peeping.But... this time, it's true that I encountered a voyeur, but what if I encounter a killer next time?Warning?What is the use of warning?In her previous life, she had read countless suspense novels, and many of the victims found abnormalities before they were killed, but what's the use of that?In the end he was killed!System, is the Xuan Ming Gong that I spent 50 purchase value in exchange for useful?

"Hey, it's been detected that the host is very excited. Please stay calm. No one within a hundred miles has been found to be malicious or threatening to the host. Practicing the preliminary level of Xuan Ming Gong will help to increase Qi and blood and prolong life. If you need to resist the body's Those who have more than 20 years of skill, please practice Xuan Ming Gong to a high level or choose other advanced skills."

Mu Lian said seriously, "System, let's have a discussion. As long as someone peeps at me within your monitoring range, whether it's good intentions or malicious, can you remind me? You know, people's right to privacy is Sacred and inviolable! Once the right to privacy is violated, we will most likely... die twice!"

If the system can complain, it will mercilessly tear off this person's hypocritical mask at this moment, "What privacy rights are you talking about with me? You are actually afraid of death, right? Are there any hosts who are as afraid of death as you?"

However, Mu Lian's request was within the range allowed by the system, so the latter agreed with a cold voice.

What's next?Mu Lian only thought for three seconds before making a decision, unwrapping the novice gift package!
