Traveling through ancient times: starting with live streaming

Zhou Chang couldn't take his eyes off the exquisite golden and yellow abacus.

After a while, he reached out and picked it up to take a closer look, but then he felt that it was all blasphemy.

From He Xi's memory, we know that Miss Yuan was gifted since childhood. At the age of eight, she could read ten lines in an account book at a glance, and could use both hands to play two sets of plates at the same time, and the numbers she calculated were perfect.

Last night, Zhou Chang thought that Miss Yuan’s personality was rare in the world, but now he is simply astounded by her beauty.

She was a math idiot in her previous life, and she envied and admired those who were good at math the most.

However, in the past there were computers and modern mathematics, so being able to do quick mental arithmetic was not a big deal.

But Miss Yuan was different. She was self-taught. She could add up the numbers written in complicated traditional Chinese characters with just a glance. As for using an abacus with both hands, it was something that most people could not do.

"Ding, the customer has placed an order for a turquoise jade monogram."

"Ding, a customer has placed an order for a gold-thread brocade bag."

Another system order was placed, and Zhou Chang noticed with his peripheral vision that on the corner of the table, next to a round jadeite dish containing cinnabar ink, there was a translucent emerald green monogram with a deep green glow.

I couldn't help but pick it up and turn it over to take a look.

"Yuan Qihua"?

"Qihua" should be Miss Yuan's nickname.

Zhou Chang has changed several identities and has met Miss Yuan twice, but she still doesn't know Miss Yuan's name.

Not only did she not know, but even He Xi's memory of identity change did not know either.

He Xi only knew that Miss Yuan usually used the three characters "Yuan Qihua" in her seal, while the boss Yuan Yu called his daughter by her nickname "Qi'er". As for her real maiden name, no one outside knew it.

Zhou Chang put the Biqinghua seal back to its original place.

Just as he let go of it, he discovered an extremely beautiful gold brocade bag next to it, half open, revealing another monogram inside.

"Ding, a customer has placed an order for a top-quality white jade monogram."

Automatically ignore system sounds.

The monogram has a warm luster and is as flawless as white jade. It is specially placed in such an exquisite brocade bag, which must be even more important and private.

Zhou Chang paused for a moment, but still reached out and took out the seal from the brocade bag.

At the bottom of the monogram are two large characters shaped like crabapple flowers.

"Yuanyuan?"

This must be Miss Yuan’s maiden name.

Haha, it turns out that someone as high-end and refined as Miss Yuan has such a casual name?

"Yuan Qi." The voice of the viewpoint system suddenly popped up to correct.

"Yuan Qi?" No matter how Zhou Chang looked at it, she felt that the character below did not look like the character "Qi". Even though she did not know many traditional Chinese characters, the characters in this dimension were similar to the traditional Chinese characters in her previous life. She had confirmed this on the signboard of Yaoyuefang and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.

"The character '亓' looks very similar to the character '元'." If the voice of the viewpoint system could have a tone, it would definitely be contempt.

"Yuan Qi." Zhou Chang did not get annoyed, and repeated it silently in his mind, "So her name is Yuan Qi, and her name is also very nice. She is really enviable in every way."

Just as I was enjoying the moment, I heard footsteps outside the side door of the study.

Zhou Chang quickly put the seal back into the brocade bag.

When I turned around, Miss Yuan had already walked into the study accompanied by two personal maids.

Even though I have seen it twice, the third time I still felt it was brighter, even brighter.

Miss Yuan Qiyuan seemed to have put on a little makeup today, her face was more red and white, she was wearing a light purple Ning Luo dress, and only had a jade hairpin on her head, which was generous and elegant, yet gorgeous.

Behind her were two maids, one holding a light purple gauze hat in her hand, and the other holding a silk cloak of the same color.

"Uncle He, please take a seat." Yuan Qi casually made a gesture of invitation and sat down behind the yellow pear wood table.

Zhou Chang sat down on the yellow pear wood chair opposite the table.

"Today's date was originally chosen by Uncle He, but I want to go to the residence of the Dali Temple first. Is that possible?" Yuan Qi asked politely.

Zhou Chang unconsciously moved his fingers again, but he didn't realize what day it was today. However, some memories in He Xi's mind made her feel distressed: "Miss, do you want to try to visit the residence of Lord Chu Liang, the Minister of the Dali Temple, again?"

Yuan Qi's eyes were determined: "Since the Minister of Justice refused to see me, then I can only try at the residence of the Minister of the Supreme Court."

The matter of the Yuan family had reached the point of being tried by the three courts. Zhou Chang had known about it before, but he did not think about it in detail at that time.

Although Linguo also had three departments, the Censorate was in name only, so the only ones who actually did the work were the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple.

In these two yamen, the case of Minister of Revenue Min Hang's treason was presided over by the Ministry of Justice. Although the Dali Temple was also the chief judge, it was no match for the Dali Temple's Chief Justice Chu Liang, who was a third-generation official who would push things off whenever he could and avoid things whenever he could. Therefore, when it came to who had the final say, it mainly depended on the Ministry of Justice.

It's a pity that during these days, He Xi accompanied the young master Yuan Qi to run around all the government offices in Jindu, and finally they met the Minister of Justice Pei Li, but Pei Li always refused to see them.

"That's right. Now they have determined that the four Kabuki are spies of the Mirage Kingdom. I'm afraid they will announce the verdict next. We can't wait any longer." Yuan Qi has reached the end of his rope and has no other choice but to settle for the next best thing.

While speaking, Zhou Chang could already learn from He Xi's mind that among the group of kabuki who were on the same ship, four of them were eventually identified as spies of the Mirage Kingdom, and "Yang Jiao" was among them.

She simply couldn't believe that such a timid woman could be a spy from an enemy country, and was just being used by the Ministry of Justice to make up the numbers.

But it's useless to say anything now. It's a blessing in disguise that Xiqiao was able to be fished out.

"Ah, this finger-pinching..." Zhou Chang pinched his fingers again for no apparent reason, swallowing He Xi's catchphrase, "No matter where the young lady wants to go, this old servant will accompany you."

Zhou Chang sighed inwardly, while Yuan Qi had already stood up and put on his veil with the help of a maid: "Since Uncle He said so, then there is no problem. Then let's go without further delay."

"Yes." Zhou Chang quickly stood up.

Afterwards, Zhou Chang accompanied Yuan Qi, took two servants and gifts, and went to the residence of the Dali Temple Minister in the dark red silver gauze carriage that she had seen twice before.

Half an hour later, several people got off the carriage in front of a mansion with a vermilion lacquered gate and white jade stone lions.

A middle-aged man dressed as a butler saw servants unloading gift boxes of various sizes from the carriage, so he smiled and greeted them and asked, "Excuse me, which mansion are you from? Do you have an invitation?"

Zhou Chang imitated the way he remembered congratulating others and bowed, "I am the steward of Long Yuyuan's family. I am here to congratulate you. This is our young master. I have come to see you specially."

"Aren't you here to celebrate the birthday?" The middle-aged housekeeper changed his expression. "If you are here to ask for help, it will be inconvenient today. Please go back first."

Zhou Chang followed the usual practice of congratulating others, trying to fulfill his duties conscientiously. He took out the small banknotes he prepared daily from his pocket and stuffed them into the middle-aged steward's pocket: "This steward looks friendly. Can you please be lenient? Just help inform him. As for whether we can meet or not, it depends on chance."

"Well..." The middle-aged butler took the twenty-liang silver note and his expression softened a lot, but he still said, "You came at an unfortunate time today. It's our old lady's sixtieth birthday and there are so many guests. Even if we meet, we can't talk. Why don't you come again tomorrow? I will definitely make it easier for you then."

Zhou Chang turned around and asked Yuan Qi for instructions.

Yuan Qi's face could not be seen clearly because of the veil on his head, but it was obvious that he heard the words. The breeze blowing across the veil expressed his loss.

"Then thank you very much, Steward. Please accept the gift and consider it as a birthday gift to the old lady." Zhou Chang said, and took out a printed business card from his pocket and handed it over with both hands, "Please hand over the business card."

Seeing that the visitor was so considerate and willing to leave a gift even though he hadn't met him, the middle-aged steward took the name card with a smile and said, "Oh, you are the young master of the Long Yuyuan family? Don't worry, the name card has been handed over."

Zhou Chang clasped his fists again: "Thank you, I'll do it another day..."

Halfway through his words, two carriages suddenly came from the west, and a man in fancy clothes walked out of the main gate of the Chu Mansion to greet them.

There is a girl who has gained weight recently.

But she is very kind, can I add it to my collection? "
