Chapter 143 The competent ones take the place



Several maids looked at the eighteen empty plates on the table and subconsciously looked towards their young lady's belly.

Zi Su thought: Is the lady’s belly a bottomless pit?

Yan Fei thought: Miss, you have such a good appetite... Are you afraid that you won’t have anything to eat in the north?

Lu Zhu thought: Miss is so amazing!

Si Jinxing felt uncomfortable being stared at by the three of them, so she waved her hand and said, "I'll go check on Fourth Sister and Second Young Master."

She walked outside, called Bai Xi over, and said:

"Go and invite Shopkeeper Pei, Shopkeeper Zhao, and Shopkeeper Fang here. I have something to discuss with them."

Bai Xi rolled his eyes when he heard that. He was clearly a secret guard, so how could he be asked to run errands for her?

He could not help but protest:

"Princess, you just received 20,000 taels today. Can't you go and hire someone to deliver your message?"

Si Jinxing turned her head to look at him, nodded and chuckled, saying:

"It's my fault for not thinking things through. How about I go and talk to your master?

Ask him to find me someone who is willing to run errands?"

Qingchan was standing by and couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

When Bai Xi heard this, he glanced at the gloating Qingchan, coughed lightly, and said:

"I was just joking. Besides, the prince is so busy, it's better not to bother him with such a small matter!

I will absolutely obey the princess's orders and go get someone right away!"

What a joke. That ice cube master can only smile when he is with the princess. He is just a big ice cube at other times, okay?

Following the princess, not only can you eat well and have fun, but most importantly, the princess is easy to talk to!

He doesn't want to be changed back!

Bai Xi clasped his fists in greeting and then left.

Si Jinxing pursed her lips and smiled softly, then took Qingchan with her and walked towards the Cuihe Garden of the Wen family.

As soon as she stepped into Cuihe Garden, she saw Si Jinyi walking out of the room.

When Si Jinyi saw the person coming, she smiled and walked over quickly, saying,

"Second sister, I was just about to go to Suihua Garden to look for you!"

As she spoke, she took Si Jinxing's arm, the smile on her face slowly faded, and she said:

"I heard that Second Sister, you are going to the north?"

Si Jinxing smiled and said:

"You are quite well-informed. I just received the Emperor's decree this morning, and it says this."

The two sisters walked towards the yard while talking.

Wen Shi in the room heard the voices and hurried out, urging:

"Yier, let your second sister sit down and rest for a while. She must be exhausted after being busy outside the city for the past two days."

Si Jinxing was not shy and pulled the Wen mother and daughter to sit together, saying with a smile:

"Thank you, Aunt Wen, you still think of me."

Wen waved for tea and asked, "Are we leaving tomorrow? Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

Have you asked Luzhu and the others to pack all the things you need for the journey?"

Si Jinxing nodded and said with a smile:

“Well, Yan Fei and the others are already packing up!

The situation in the north is urgent, so it is better to set off early.

I was thinking that I might not be able to come back for a while, so I thought of coming to see you guys."

Wen sighed lightly and said:

"When you get there, you must take good care of yourself. The Emperor is really a fool to let a girl like you go?

Why didn't Prince Mo Ying ask the Emperor for mercy on this matter?"

Just as Si Jinxing was about to speak, she heard a boy's voice coming from outside the courtyard:

"Second sister's medical skills are amazing, how can those imperial doctors in the palace compare to her?

Such an important matter must be handled by someone capable!"

If the person speaking is not Si Jinheng, then who else could it be?

Si Jinheng's yard is right next to Cuihe Garden, only a few steps away.

Si Jinxing hadn't seen him for some time and found that he seemed to have grown taller.

I heard that Si Junshan found a school for him and he was very busy with his studies every day.

She waved at him and was about to ask him about school matters, but he suddenly turned his head and shouted outside the courtyard:

"Come in!"

Wen and Si Jinxing exchanged a glance and looked towards the courtyard gate. They saw a messenger girl from the front yard walking in panting, obviously jogging all the way.

The girl bowed to the few people and said to Si Jinxing:

"Miss, something bad has happened!"

Si Jinxing frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"

"Suddenly, a group of people gathered outside the mansion gate, cursing and saying... saying..."

The girl hesitated, as if she couldn't say it.

Si Jinxing thought for a moment, could it be what happened on Dongping Street?

Her eyes darkened and she said, "So, I'm the reincarnation of a disaster star? A curse on my father, mother, brothers, and sisters?

Now, the Huaibei floods have been suppressed, and the people of Jianzhou cannot leave the capital at will?"

When the girl heard what the second lady said, her face turned pale and she replied in a trembling voice: "Yes..."

After hearing these words, Si Jinheng's face darkened. He stared at the little girl and asked in a cold voice:

"Who asked you to come? Now, who is going to deal with it outside the door?"

The girl was slightly startled before she spoke softly,

"Yes... Master, Master asked me to come and tell you something."

Si Jinxing heard the voice and said, "Okay, I understand."

After she said that, she waved to Si Jinheng to come over, as if she hadn't heard anything.

Seeing that the second young lady had no intention of getting up, the girl couldn't help but said anxiously:

"Second Miss, why don't you go take a look outside the mansion? Those people are scolding you!"

Si Jinxing turned to look at her and said, "Why should I argue with a bunch of ignorant people? You should go and do your thing first."
