The Female General and Xiao Fu's Wife

When the carriage entered the city, the wheels made a rumbling sound on the stone-paved road, and the horse's nose would neigh when it encountered a crowded crowd from time to time as a reminder.

Shen Zhaoxue sat in the middle of the car, expressionless and silent.

Rachel sat on one side and was almost bored. The young lady came out of the training ground like this. What happened inside? Could it be that the general made the young lady unhappy again? No, she had to talk to make the young lady happy. OK.

"Miss, the weather is pretty good today." After speaking, Rachel looked at Shen Zhaoxue's reaction, but there was no reaction.

"Miss, shall we go back home later, or go to the store?"

Shen Zhaoxue raised her eyes and replied flatly, "Go to the store."

"Well, I'll go talk to the groom." Rachel opened the curtain of the car and said a few words to the groom, and then stuck her head in.

After a while the carriage stopped in front of the shop, Xiao An came out to greet her with a smile on her face, "Ma'am, you are here, business is going well this morning..." I saw Xiao An blabla talking non-stop to report the performance, Shen Zhaoxue also He just nodded slightly with a smile and walked in.

Xiao An felt a little strange, so she asked Rachel who was on the side, Rachel curled her lips helplessly and said, "Hey, don't ask, Miss is not in a good mood now." After speaking, she also followed in, Xiao An stood in front of the door and touched her forehead , at a loss.

As usual, Shen Zhaoxue checked the ledger and did some liquidation work. She always made mistakes in the calculations. She simply closed it, put her hands on her forehead, and Rachel poured tea and put it on the table, "Miss, drink Have some water and rest."

She found that she couldn't calm down, couldn't stop caring about those things, but obviously... her heart was very open-minded and indifferent before.

"Miss, miss..."

I don't know how long she was in a daze like this, until Rachel's voice brought her back to her thoughts, Shen Zhaoxue raised her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Rachel signaled across the street with her eyes, "It's Miss Su who is here."

After finishing speaking, Gu Zi stepped forward to greet him at the door, and whispered to Su Xiuyan, "Miss Su, my lady is not in a good mood right now..."

Who knew that before she finished speaking, Su Xiuyan said with a look of feeling that there was a small problem, "It's okay, small things, it's up to me."

"Xiuyan, you are here." Shen Zhaoxue stood up to greet her.

When Su Xiuyan saw her, she was taken aback, she was indeed not in the usual state, "I heard from Rachel that you are not in a good mood."

Shen Zhaoxue smiled slightly and wanted to cover it up, but she didn't know that status was the last thing to hide, so she hurriedly changed the subject and asked, "Did Xiuyan not accompany sister today?"

Su Xiuyan waved her hand, "There's a lot of urging in the palace, I'll go back to the palace after lunch, alas, how about this, I'll take you out for a stroll."

"Go shopping?" Shen Zhaoxue was slightly taken aback, "Where are you going..."

After finishing speaking, Su Xiuyan reached out and grabbed Shen Zhaoxue's wrist, "A mysterious place." After speaking, she led her to run outside.

Standing at the door, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief, Miss Su, it's up to you from now on.

Shen Zhaoxue was a little out of breath from running, her body was so weak that she had never experienced such exercise, she blushed and her neck was panting heavily after a while, Su Xiuyan had no choice but to stop and wait for her to rest, to see what she looked like nothing.

"How far is it?"

"It's not far away, within half an hour, we will definitely arrive."

"Half an hour?" Shen Zhaoxue was terrified.

"You'll know after a while, it's the most fun place in the whole capital." Su Xiuyan sold out.

The place she mentioned is the largest underground market in the capital city. All the rare antiques that cannot be seen in the market are sold here, and there are also unique products from the Western Regions and countries.

One of the reasons why it is named the underground market is that it is really built underground, isolated from the world, and ordinary people will hardly find it here.

The entrance of the market was guarded by someone in charge, and someone handed Shen Zhaoxue a mask. Shen Zhaoxue looked at Su Xiuyan not quite understanding, and saw that she had already put it on for herself, and explained, "Whoever enters here People, everyone needs to wear a mask. All the people who are traded and those who are being traded cannot see each other's faces, maintaining their sense of mystery, come on, put them on quickly and let's go in."

Shen Zhaoxue nodded and put on the mask, gradually becoming curious.

After putting on the masks, the two people were let go. Inside, it was exactly as Xiuyan said, everyone was wearing all kinds of masks, and it was impossible to tell who this person was just by looking at it, and whether they knew each other. people.

"There are cheap and expensive things here, but one thing is absolutely guaranteed that there are no fakes. Occasionally, one or two people sneak in and try to make up for it. They will be dragged out and beaten to death by the person in charge of the market. "Su Xiuyan asked Shen Zhaoxue about science-related matters while walking.

"However, how could Xiuyan understand so well?" Shen Zhaoxue asked curiously.

"That's because I won't tell you." Su Xiuyan smirked, and patted her on the shoulder after speaking, "Quick, I'll take you shopping."

"Western Region tribute incense, come and take a look."

"A doll from Yamato is the only one in the market."

"The best Tianshan snow lotus is cheaper than outside."

"..."

There were sellers' cries everywhere, Xiuyan's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she saw something, she immediately pulled Shen Zhaoxue forward, and in front of her was a small bookstall with a picture of a beautiful woman on the cover. Go, almost all the same.

"Boss, there are new products." Su Xiuyan just opened his mouth, and the other party seemed to recognize him, very enthusiastic.

"Girl, it's you." Said, he quickly knelt down and took out a few books from the bottom of the box, "I won't give it to anyone else, this is specially prepared for you, and they are all good stuff."

Su Xiuyan held it upside down in her hand, with a satisfied expression on her face, Shen Zhaoxue approached her and asked in a low voice, "Is this the forbidden book you mentioned before?"

The seller seemed to have heard Shen Zhaoxue's words, and hurriedly said, "This girl, this is the first time she has come to our underground market. Forbidden. Book is the name of the people above. In our place, they are all called Ji."

"membership?"

Su Xiuyan gave the few books in her hand to Shen Zhaoxue, "Take it back and read it first, and I'll ask you for it after reading it." After finishing speaking, she paid the money to the seller, and the seller happily put away the money.

At this moment, a person passing behind seemed to bump into Shen Zhaoxue lightly. She subconsciously turned her head to look, and saw that the person was wearing a mask and looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was. has gone far.

"Zhaoxue, what are you looking at?" Su Xiuyan asked.

"No, nothing." Shen Zhaoxue turned around.

"Then I'll take you to another place."

"En!" Shen Zhaoxue smiled, nodded, and couldn't help but look back, the masked man had long since disappeared.

Night fell in this city that never sleeps, and it was time to close the door. Rachel stood at the door of the store and looked around for a long time, but she still didn't see the lady coming back. It's a good time, I hope nothing happens.

A carriage approached not far away, and Rachel immediately recognized the carriage driver sitting in front, who belonged to Sima's residence.

When the people in the car got off, it was Sima Yun, and Rachel hurriedly saluted, "General."

Sima Yun glanced at it, and just asked, "It's not closed yet?"

Rachel lowered her head and didn't know what to do. Clutching the handkerchief in her hand, Sima Yun realized that something was wrong and walked in. There was only Xiao An, a clerk inside, and there was no sign of Shen Zhaoxue.

"Where's Madame?"

"General, please spare me!" Rachel fell to her knees with a thump, "Miss...she went out with Miss Su in the afternoon, and she hasn't come back yet."

Miss Su...it was her again, Sima Yun frowned, and was about to go out to look for her, but two beautiful figures walked over from across the street.

Rachel was overjoyed, and quickly called out, "They're back."

With a faint smile on Shen Zhaoxue's face, she seemed to be in a very comfortable mood, but when she raised her eyes and saw the tall and straight figure standing in the store, she froze slightly, General...why did you come here.

Rachel ran out and grabbed Shen Zhaoxue's hand, "Miss, you are back, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain."

Su Xiuyan put her hands on her hips, "Zhaoxue is staying with me, there is nothing to worry about." After finishing speaking, she also looked into the shop, answering her own question, "That is General Sima, he is quite handsome. But I still like Zhaoxue the most, okay, I should go back at this late hour, or else my father should accuse me of going around, I don't like him talking in my ears all day long..."

Shen Zhaoxue pursed her lips and waved goodbye to her, Su Xiuyan had already walked a few steps away, waving her hand vigorously.

Watching Xiuyan leave, Shen Zhaoxue turned around and saw Sima Yun striding out, walking to the side of the carriage with an indifferent face, seeing that Shen Zhaoxue was still indifferent, she just glanced at it from the corner of her eye, "Not yet in the carriage ?”

"..." Shen Zhaoxue paused for a while, followed, and whispered, "Here we are."

On the way back, in order to avoid embarrassment, Rachel volunteered to sit outside with the groom, leaving only the general and the lady inside.

The atmosphere in the carriage was a little awkward, no one was talking to anyone, Shen Zhaoxue held the book in her arms tightly, and asked, "General... did you come here specially to pick Zhaoxue back?"

"..." Sima Yun swallowed his saliva, moved his throat, looked ahead and spoke in a lukewarm tone, "No... just passing by."
