Chapter 109 Rouge Business
Gu Lang held a high position, but was eventually exiled.
Now that he has become an ordinary citizen and started a business, he should not be feared by others.
Who knew he would be assassinated so many times.
Wasn't it possible that what she did was known to those people, making them think that the Gu family was on Yuchi Shuo's side, and that they were treating the Gu family in this way in order to weaken Yuchi Shuo?
After figuring out the key, Gu Feixue felt very regretful.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have done those things, and she would not have ended up siding with the prince's party.
Everyone knows that the struggle for the throne is a life-or-death struggle.
If you don't take sides, you may still have a chance to survive. But if you take sides, who knows if the teammates on your side are stupid?
What’s so annoying is that Yuchi Shuo just told them to be careful without mentioning who to be careful of!
So in Gu Feixue's reply to Yuchi Shuo, she mocked Yuchi Shuo and told him that if he had the ability, he should send many people to protect the Gu family. Otherwise, who wouldn't just tell him to be careful?
There was a hint of resentment in the few scribbled words. She rolled up the letter paper, put it into the scroll, and then released the pigeon.
What Gu Feixue didn't expect was that the few words she said casually actually saved the Gu family's life in the near future.
Gu Feixue didn't know that the reason for dealing with the Gu family at this time was not because of the fight for the throne, but this turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as it focused the attention on the crown princes in the capital and the factions behind them who might be rivals of the prince.
Gu Feixue reminisced. She remembered that when the Gu family had not yet been exiled, the prince’s biggest rival seemed to be the Sixth Prince?
Could it be that the Sixth Prince wants to deal with the Gu family?
For several days, Gu Feixue had a worried look on her face and refused to say anything when the Gu family asked her.
After the New Year, Gu Feixue went to the shop disguised as a man, but found that she saw an acquaintance.
This person was none other than the daughter of the Chun Family Cloth Shop whom Gu Feixue saw at the Wan Family Cloth Shop on New Year's Eve.
"I am the eldest daughter of the Chun Family Cloth Shop. I am here to discuss something important with your shopkeeper."
"Sir, our shopkeeper is not here today. You can come back tomorrow."
"I've been waiting for three days. When will it come?"
Gu Feixue raised her eyebrows, then stepped forward in men's clothing and said:
"Excuse me, is this Chun Feng Miao, Miss Chun?"
The other party turned to look at her with some doubt in his eyes:
"Who are you?"
Gu Feixue took a quick look and found that Chun Fengmiao's appearance was much fresher than the last time when she had a clown face.
Although the powder on her face seemed to be stuck, this was how powder was in ancient times, not very sticky. She had discovered this when she was looking for models for the shop's catwalk.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can find the owner of this embroidered feathered robe."
Chun Fengmiao's eyes lit up when he heard this and said:
"Can you really find Shopkeeper Li?"
Gu Feixue smiled pretentiously, then led Chun Fengmiao to Jinxiu's reception room, and the two sat down and started chatting.
"If that's the case, could you please tell me how to find it?"
"Miss Chun, could you please tell me why you are looking for the owner of this shop?"
Gu Feixue looked like a graceful young man, and Chun Fengmiao's cheeks blushed when he saw him.
"My cloth shop wants to cooperate with Jinxiu. If we can cooperate, we will definitely be willing to offer a cheaper price than the Wan family."
After saying this, she said seriously:
"Not only that, our Chun family's fabrics are no worse than the Wan family's!"
Gu Feixue felt a little amused.
She asked deliberately:
"Some time ago, I heard that Miss Chun went to Wanjia Cloth Shop..."
Chun Fengmiao indeed showed a trace of embarrassment:
"That was a misunderstanding."
Gu Feixue smiled but said nothing,
"So, what does Miss Chun think of Gu Feixue from the Gu family? She's the one who pointed out your identity in front of everyone?"
Chun Fengmiao seemed surprised that this young man actually knew all this, thinking that he was present at the time. She wrinkled her nose and said:
"What do you think? She's just a little brat. I won't bother with her."
Gu Feixue couldn't help but burst out laughing. This Chun Fengmiao is really a wonderful person.
"You're not kidding me, are you? Do you really know where to find Shopkeeper Li?"
Hearing people's doubts, Gu Feixue only said:
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Li will be here soon. But I don't think you can cooperate with Jinxiu. I heard that Jinxiu and the Wan family just renewed their contract and will not cooperate with other companies for a few years."
The other party showed disappointment when he heard it, and then looked at Gu Feixue with even more suspicion.
"How do you know all this?"
Gu Feixue smiled without saying anything. He looked at the powder on An Chunfengmiao's face and said casually:
"I heard it from someone, but it seems that the cosmetics Miss Chun uses are not bought on the market?"
Chun Fengmiao nodded when she heard this. "I made this myself. Besides running a cloth business, our cloth shop also sells some silk flower rouge that girls like. This rouge smells more pleasant than those sold in rouge shops."
Chun Fengmiao boasted so much, but Gu Feixue did not refute it.
In Gu Feixue's eyes, the rouge used by Chun Fengmiao, apart from being a little powdery, had a really good texture and smell.
After thinking about it, Gu Feixue smiled and said:
"Well, you might not be able to cooperate with Jinxiu in the cloth business, but Shopkeeper Li should be interested in your rouge. When Shopkeeper Li comes, you can give this to him, and he will help introduce you to the real owner of Jinxiu."
After saying that, Gu Feixue handed the bamboo joint, a token specially made by the Gu family, to Chun Fengmiao.
Then, under the other party's puzzled eyes, Gu Feixue left Jinxiu.
Gu Feixue did not do this on impulse. She had seen this person at Wanjia Cloth Shop that day. She felt that although there was a lot of powder on the person's face, the texture was surprisingly good.
Ordinary rouge and powder, when applied to the face to a certain thickness, will become like cracked wall, with cracks here and there.
But at that time, Chun Fengmiao used a thick layer of powder to cover up her appearance, and there was no trace of cracking at all.
In addition to this, the other person's original expression was not completely concealed, and a hint of blush could be seen.
Apart from being a little powdery, the other party's rouge is obviously different from those on the market.
Gu Feixue originally planned to break into the circle of noble ladies in Beijing, and the down jacket was just the first step.
For women, besides clothes, rouge is the second most popular item.
She has modern knowledge about cosmetics, but doesn't know much about the traditional process of making rouge, so all she can seek is cooperation.
The Chun Family Cloth Shop is obviously a good candidate for cooperation.
Although Chun Fengmiao had brought people to the Wan family to cause trouble before, his intentions were relatively simple.
I guess the Chun family must have experienced something this time, otherwise the eldest daughter of the Chun family would not be so anxious to take the initiative to cooperate with Jinxiu.
After all, the Chun family is considered the largest cloth shop in Liangcheng. It is a bit embarrassing for them to take the initiative to seek cooperation with a newly opened garment store.
Forbidden City.
"Do you know where you went wrong?"
Yuchi Shuo had no expression on his face as he looked at his men who were riding non-stop from Liangcheng back to the capital.
"I have failed to do my job well and failed to take good care of the young lady!"
Yuchi Shuo snorted coldly:
"Your Highness remembers that I asked you to put Gu Feixue's safety first. What did you do?"
The man below said anxiously upon hearing this:
"But Your Highness, if you are exposed..."
Yuchi Shuo said in a cold and murderous tone:
"That's not something you should be thinking about!"
