But Qin Feng will be seen soon. For Zhang Chao, all the suffering he has suffered before is worth it. If the best situation occurs, he can even become a national hero who saves the entire Dadi.
At this moment, a pretty girl suddenly opened the door curtain and walked in.
This girl looks young and smart. She is wearing a light green skirt and a silver hairpin on her head. You can tell she is a rich lady at a glance.
Recalling that there were four young ladies in the Qin family, Zhang Chao did not dare to neglect and quickly stood up to salute, but his head was always lowered, and he did not dare to look up rashly to look at the girl's appearance.
Although Dadi has an open atmosphere, Liang Guo regards itself as a "state of etiquette and music". It is extremely rude to look directly at the other party's female relatives, especially those who have not left the court.
Zhang Chao was cautious, fearing that he might accidentally offend Qin Feng, let alone talk of peace or war, his life would be at stake here.
Qin Feng has already started a war with Dadi. Isn't it a casual move to kill a small doctor from the Ministry of Etiquette?
Faced with Zhang Chao's reaction, Xiao Xiangxiang was also startled, and quickly moved aside, saying nervously: "Sir...sir, why are you doing this? This slave can never bear such a great gift."
Servant?
Hearing the girl's name, Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment. He quickly raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him. This woman was wearing gold and silver, and her clothes were very expensive. How could she be just a little maid?
etc!
Zhang Chao was shocked. Could it be that... the woman in front of him was Qin Feng's personal maid?
Only personal maids can receive such treatment.
A personal maid is equivalent to half a concubine, and although Qin Feng is engaged to the daughter of Duke Liang Guoning, the marriage has not yet been consummated. So theoretically speaking, the personal maid in front of him is the closest to Qin Feng. people.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chao became even more nervous. Qin Feng has always been far-sighted and full of meaning. He deliberately sent his personal maid to receive Zhang Chao, probably to test Zhang Chao's sincerity. If Zhang Chao did anything rude, he would It will definitely lead to thunderous revenge.
Zhang Chao quickly pressed his head down, becoming more cautious than before.
"I wonder what you call Miss?"
Hearing this, Xiao Xiangxiang quickly explained: "My lord, you have broken this slave. I am just a little girl next to the Marquis. How dare you call yourself a lady?"
Zhang Chao shook his head repeatedly: "Miss, you are too modest. Although you are a maid in name, you are naturally a golden branch and jade leaf when you are around Qin Hou."
As a veteran official in Beidi's officialdom, Zhang Chao is naturally very sophisticated and yet tactful. As the saying goes, the maids in the prince's palace and the maids beside the princess are all first-class ruthless characters. Any scruples will inevitably lead to retaliation. In the current environment, not to mention Qin Feng's personal maid, even any maid around the Beidi royal family needs to be handled with caution.
Seeing Zhang Chao's resolute attitude, Xiao Xiangxiang did not force anything, and said softly: "This slave has no name. In the Qin family, I am named Xiangxiang."
Xiangxiang? Such an ambiguous title must be the nickname between Qin Feng and this girl. Even if he lent Zhang Chao a hundred courages, he would never dare to call the woman in front of him Xiangxiang.
He quickly saluted: "If you take the master's surname, then you are Miss Qin."
Xiao Xiangxiang originally wanted to defend herself, but she swallowed it back. After all, the Qin family has no direct daughter, and the four ladies have different surnames. As the saying goes, servants follow their master's surname. If we insist on talking about it, Xiao Xiangxiang will naturally His surname is Qin, so there is nothing to worry about.
The word "Miss" made Xiao Xiangxiang a little flattered.
Xiao Xiangxiang bit her thin lips lightly and replied shyly: "I heard from the frontline generals that your surname is Zhang? It's getting late. I will take you to have some breakfast."
Zhang Chao had long been so hungry that his chest was touching his back, but he had important responsibilities during this trip. As the saying goes, if you do too much, you will make many mistakes, so the safest thing is to do nothing. Therefore, facing Xiao Xiangxiang’s kindness, Zhang Chao hurriedly Decline.
"Thank you Miss Qin for your kindness. I'm not hungry yet. I wonder when the Marquis of Qin will receive me?"
Xiao Xiangxiang was a little embarrassed to speak, hesitated again and again, and replied in a low voice: "I'm afraid it can't be done today. The third lady is ill, and the young master is waiting in the backyard, so it is inconvenient to see guests. The eldest lady is taking care of the adopted son for the third lady, and she is temporarily It’s not convenient to meet guests.”
"Since Mr. Zhang is already here, just wait with peace of mind. After a while, I will bring someone to arrange food and lodging for Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Chao felt strange in his heart. The woman in front of him was Qin Feng's personal maid, and who was Qin Feng? With her own power, she can even push the entire Dadi into a desperate situation. This kind of personal maid of the king of this place is originally a servant of the master, so she is extremely arrogant and arrogant. But the woman in front of him was gentle and extremely decent.
From childhood to adulthood, from servant to master, it seems that Qin Feng is not as violent as the rumors say, and is a very reasonable person.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chao felt as if he had taken a reassurance. As long as he met Qin Feng and stated his interests, he expected that Qin Feng would not show any mercy.
In order to show his kindness to Qin Feng, Zhang Chao quickly asked: "May I ask Miss Qin, what kind of disease did the third miss contract? Or was she injured? I'm afraid there are no good doctors in Xiaochangshui County. I can go back now." The best doctor from Dadi was brought in to treat the third lady."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiangxiang's face suddenly turned red and she quickly shook her head: "No... no need."
Zhang Chao thought that Xiao Xiangxiang refused so quickly because he was worried that Qin Feng would not be able to save face, so he quickly explained: "Being able to treat the third lady's illness is a small favor from me. I will never take the opportunity to threaten or even negotiate with the Marquis of Qin. There will be no connection.”
"Excuse me, Miss Qin, just go and tell Marquis Qin about this."
Seeing Zhang Chao's sincere attitude, Xiao Xiangxiang's face turned redder, and she whispered: "Master Zhang misunderstood, the third lady is ill, it's just some private illness, so..."
Hearing this, Zhang Chao suddenly realized and quickly lowered his head: "I am too talkative."
Although he understood that the third lady had a "woman's disease", Zhang Chao couldn't help but mutter in his heart that this kind of thing is not a big problem and will be cured in a few days. Why does Qin Feng need to wait on it personally?
Besides, how can a hero like Qin Feng stay away from his female family members because of their private illness? If this spreads out, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the reputation of a man?
But when he thought about it again, Zhang Chao felt that he was too ridiculous. Qin Feng was famous for being a good protector, and he was even better at caring for his relatives. Moreover, he heard that the third young lady of the Qin family was Princess Mingyue of the Liang Kingdom, and she was the same as Qin Feng. There is a marriage contract, so Qin Feng will be nervous whenever the third lady loses a hair.
This Qin Feng really cannot be explained by common sense.
