Hearing the sound of the door opening, Qi Yu was the most nervous person in the private room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info He knew that Duan San couldn't rest assured that Xi Cui would stay with him alone for too long, these **** found through Duan San's expression, tone, and even his actions and demeanor that Duan San loved Xi Cui out of sincerity, but this love had nothing to do with the love between men and women, he acted more like a brother.

In this case, Duan San will definitely find it, either this moment or the next moment, with Duan San's skills, once he appears, no one can hurt Xi Cui, so he doesn't have to worry about Xi Cui. But in case Duan San really comes, Miss Cao's people will inevitably be entangled with it, then this matter will inevitably make a big fuss, Xi Cui's trouble will be even more difficult to clean up, and he will inevitably be implicated.

The Lao family, the Wang family, the Nangong family, and even the emperor will have thoughts about him in their hearts, spring is coming, and he can't make extraneous branches at this time! If this incident ruined his whole plan, then all the things he had experienced before and gave up would be meaningless. He had to find a way to protect Xi Cui as much as possible and protect himself, just now the slap on Xi Cui's face had already made him embarrassed, and he couldn't continue to sit still.

But all this happened so fast that he couldn't come up with a countermeasure, and the door was already open.

Qi Yu's eyes closed with the sound of the door opening, and he listened to the man's deep and powerful footsteps walking in, while quickly turning his brain to think about how to get out.

But I didn't want to hear a regular high-five, and then I felt that someone was approaching me step by step......

"What, why you?" Why did Xi Cui's voice start to tremble?

Qi Yu opened his eyes, only to find the man standing in front of him. The sword eyebrows were inserted diagonally into the temples, the phoenix eyes were icy, and the resolute chin was slightly raised. It's good not to look at him, just by looking at him, Qi Yu felt a little chill all over his body, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, away from him and Xi Cui.

He had seen Nangong Yufeng a few times before, but every time he glanced at him from a distance, it was the first time for Qi Yu to face him so unfriendly eyes at such a close distance.

The arrival of Nangong Yufeng may bring about a new turn in this matter, Qi Yu calculated in his heart that Xi Cui must have been saved, and then he just needs to make good use of this turn to get rid of his embarrassment. Let's wait and see what happens, and let Nangong Yufeng toss it, because the core figure of this matter has already appeared, and his existence will naturally become dispensable and insignificant. At that time, even if it reaches the ears of the emperor, I am afraid that the emperor will not care how he appeared here, but will be more willing to know what happened from his mouth. When the time comes, as long as you pay attention to the skills in the statement, you can pass this level by avoiding the important and light.

Nangong Yufeng didn't show much satisfaction with Qi Yu's knowledge, his eyes swept over Xi Cui, and finally stopped at the red mark on Xi Cui's face, the cold instantly deepened, but it quickly fell on Miss Cao, "You are the daughter of Lord Cao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites?" You brought those few things out there who didn't do anything? It is said that Lord Cao is calm and low-key, why is his daughter acting very different from him? Do you still have to bring a guard when you go out? It's almost time to catch up with the princess! He slowly walked up to Xi Cui's side, lifted Xi Cui's chin, and stared at her face, "Who did it?" Don't let you ask a second time! Kneel on your own and slap your mouth! Otherwise, if you make a move, you will see blood! ”

Just now, the girl knelt on the ground with a pop, raised her hand and began to slap herself, and when she heard the sound, she knew that her hand was not lighter than that of beating herself just now.

Only then did Miss Cao come back from Fang Cai's distraction, hurriedly saluted, and explained tremblingly, "The prince has misunderstood...... Me, I...... It wasn't a guard, it was just ...... In short, these **** buy a lot of things, and my mother was worried that the two maids wouldn't be able to take them, so she asked them to help get things, not some guards......"

"Oh......" Nangong Yufeng gently pulled the handkerchief in Xi Cui's hand, and dragged it into his hand little by little, without even looking at Miss Cao, staring at Xi Cui and gouging herself with her eyes, "Your maid is much more honest than you, she has so much strength to beat herself, she can't hold things?" What did I hear you say? Want to make someone tear Xi Cui's mouth? According to Miss Cao, these are indeed not guards, but thugs, aren't they? ”

"Ah......?" Miss Cao was stupid on the spot and didn't know how to answer. I had to stare at the maids beside me, and because it was the first time I saw such a handsome and extraordinary man as Nangong Yufeng, the eyes of the two maids were so entangled in him as soon as he entered the door that they couldn't take off at all, and where could they still see the gaze cast by their own young lady. Finally, after Miss Cao Jia pinched hard, one of them came back to his senses, lowered his head and looked at his feet, but he didn't dare to beg for mercy loudly.

Useless stuff! Miss Cao scolded fiercely in her heart, but she didn't dare to look up at Nangong Yufeng, so she had to grit her teeth and explain, "That's just an angry sentence." It's just because this Xi Cui spoke too impertinently, and he didn't care about your reputation at all, I was so angry that I lost my mind, so I said something like that......"

"Xi Cui, did you scold me?" Nangong Yufeng finally snatched Xi Cui's handkerchief into his hand, and when he saw Xi Cui twist his head away, he simply sat down on the chair beside her.

Xi Cui: "...... what the hell is this Nangong Yufeng doing?" It's not enough to play with Wang Shaoyan in the Wang family, don't you have to confirm her identity as a fox spirit before she stops?

"The Xi Cui I know is not a woman who will curse casually, at least she has never scolded me to my face......" Nangong Yufeng gave Xi Cui a charming smile, and then turned his face to look at Miss Cao The moment he made this smile disappear, "But even if she scolds me, it is a matter between the two of us, what does it have to do with you?" What kind of anger are you angry about? ”

"I'm just thinking about the reputation of the prince......"

"Funny! When will it be your turn to protect the reputation of Nangong Yufeng, Miss Cao? Do we know each other? Nangong Yufeng smiled, but his eyes did not leave Xi Cui, his eyes were full of spoiling, "Since Xi Cui doesn't like my reputation is too good, then let her spoil it...... As she pleases...... But! His eyes suddenly sharpened, and he looked at Miss Cao's side, "She Xi Cui can mention my Nangong Yufeng's name at will, and I am also happy for others to talk about my name and hers together, but it doesn't mean that others can too!" If Miss Cao's behavior like this today spreads, it will only add unnecessary trouble to me. So, I hope that from the moment you step out of this threshold, it's better not to spread a word about what happened here, otherwise it will ...... Even if you climb the big tree of the Lao family, I can let your Cao family come down from the tree obediently! ”

Miss Cao's face was already pale at the moment, and she didn't even bother to salute and ran outside with her skirt, and the two maids hurriedly followed out, one of them was stopped by a hand that suddenly stretched out before she stepped on the threshold, Duan San's black and cyan face appeared at the door, and he said coldly, "Which hand did you hit Xi Cui?" ”

The maid was immediately frightened, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed vigorously, "Master spare life, the slave and maid are also acting according to orders, the slave and maid should die, the slave and the maid will not dare to ...... anymore"

"Third brother, are you too embarrassed to come out? What kind of ability is it to clean up a little maid at this time? What did you just do? As soon as Xi Cui saw Duan San appear, he immediately came to his senses, and his voice was much higher. As he spoke, he was about to stand up, and stretched out his hand high towards Duan San, obviously wanting him to come over and pull himself up. These days, her legs and feet are inconvenient, and she always tries her best to work Duan San to help herself, and if he doesn't agree to her, he will make this trick coquettish, and he has tried it repeatedly.

Duan San shook his head helplessly, raised his feet and stepped into the threshold, and walked towards Xi Cui's side, and the maid kneeling there ran away when he saw the situation.

Without waiting for Duan San to get closer, Nangong Yufeng's hand was placed under Xi Cui's arm and gently lifted her arm, "Duan San is so far away from you, aren't you reluctant to seek the near and far?" ”

Xi Cui still ignored him, and two eyes shot at Duan San, "Third brother, there's something I want to ask you." She looked at Qi Yu who was standing next to her, "This is Qi Yu, the third brother knows each other, right?" ”

Duan San knew that Qi Yu must have told Xi Cui that he was telling him that Xi Cui would go that way, no matter what the reason, now that things are like this, he is still a little weak-hearted. With a flattering smile on his face, his steps slowed down a lot.

Qi Yu then remembered that he didn't seem to have met Nangong Yufeng yet, so he took a step forward and bowed down, "In Qi Yu, I have seen the prince of Liwang." ”

Nangong Yufeng stared at Qi Yu for a long time, but he didn't see him have the slightest intention of returning the salute, but instead looked at Xi Cui with an intriguing smile, "Who is this person?" How I didn't know you were surrounded by men! First Xi Yunjian, then Wang Shaoyan, and then such a scholar! It looks pretty thoughtful......"

Xi Cui just wanted to explain and suddenly felt that it was unnecessary, the inexplicable rumors between them were enough to give people a headache, she couldn't wait to clearly divide the Chu River and Han Realm with him now, it was best not to have any entanglement, since this was the case, there was naturally no need to explain her matter to him.

Duan San saw that Xi Cui didn't say anything, Nangong Yufeng's face became more and more ugly, and just as he was about to speak, he was killed by Xi Cui's eyes and closed his lips tightly.

"I'm the one who has been engaged to Xi Cui, so the order you just said isn't quite right. Xi Cui and I were childhood sweethearts, Xi Yunjian should be behind me, and Xi Cui I know will never like Xi Yunjian or someone like Wang Shaoyan. They can't give what she wants......" Xi Cui blocked Duan San's mouth, but he couldn't control Qi Yu. The worst thing is that it is better to ask Duan San to say things from Qi Yu's mouth. This person is simply afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and he has not been so troubled by him, Nangong Yufeng's face is already blue......

"Why did the prince make such an expression? Duan San didn't hide from me these days that he also looked for you, presumably you also know that I exist. If you really cared about Si Cui, you should have started investigating me a long time ago, not to show your anger when I was already here. Qi Yu's expression was still very calm, he looked at Nangong Yufeng was completely a man looking at another ordinary man who liked Xi Cui as much as he did, "I didn't dare to slack off because I knew that you existed, and I waited on the road she had to pass through since Yin, although the result was far-fetched, but at least I expressed my attitude." Si Cui is a good girl, she deserves it, and even though I didn't keep her to the end, at least I won't take advantage of her. Fortunately, Xi Cui is very smart and not greedy, the so-called desirelessness is rigid, and she has thousands of ways to deal with your thousands of other means. Seeing that Nangong Yufeng seemed to have something to say, Qi Yu rushed in front of him and continued, "You don't have to be in a hurry to argue with me, I just said what I saw and thought, as for how the truth has nothing to do with me, you don't have to waste your words with me, how to choose is Xi Cui's own business." ”

Therefore, Nangong Yufeng sometimes hates literati, is thoughtful, speaks rigorously, and does not leak. Just like this Qi Yu in front of him, he said on his face that your affairs have nothing to do with me, I am just an outsider, but I told Xi Cui all the suspicious suspicions with bad intentions. pretends to be a sanctimonious gentleman, but he is a sinister villain who sows discord.

Duan San's eyes suddenly became kind when he looked at Qi Yu, and he seemed to be grateful. Nangong Yufeng saw that he was clearly in Qi Yu's plan, and gave him a disdainful look and did not speak.

After listening to Qi Yu's words, although Xi Cui understood his intentions, he couldn't help but be grateful. What he said makes sense, Nangong Yufeng and Wang Shaoyan's attitudes have changed too quickly, and there is still something to do here.

If you don't want to, you're just! That is enough to deal with them. As long as you don't expect to get it from them, you won't be swayed by them.

The shopkeeper didn't know when he was already standing at the door of the private room, the door was already open, and the shopkeeper shrunk and stood tremblingly, with one hand raised in the air, not knowing when to knock on the door. The other hand was holding a tray, and there was a set of tea sets in it, which should have been prepared from Nangong Yufeng when they came in. It's just that I haven't been able to find the right time to send it in.

Seeing that Xi Cui saw him, he came in with a smile on his face and tea, "If you don't drink some tea and chat first, the shop will immediately prepare a few signature dishes!" ”

This time it was Xi Cui's turn to be embarrassed, there was still a table of wine and food in front of him and he didn't move, and the shopkeeper was lucky to have a few of them on the stall today. So she smiled apologetically, "Just put the tea aside, there is no need to serve here, now it's not on the meal, and a few masters are not here to eat, let's talk for a while, you go and do your own business." As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his purse and put it on the tray in the shopkeeper's hand.

Where did the shopkeeper dare to accept it, and hurriedly excused himself. Duan San was too lazy to talk to the shopkeeper, he just wanted to send him away quickly, snatched the silver, and stuffed it into the shopkeeper's hand, "The most important thing our girl lacks is money, you will take it if you give it to you, don't you still want to stay here and find discomfort?" ”

The shopkeeper withdrew in fear, and then closed the door.

"Where did you get that much money?" Nangong Yufeng opened his mouth and asked. Qi Yu also wanted to know this question, but he didn't ask.

"If I were you, before deciding who to choose as a pawn in a certain plan, I must first figure out the situation of that person, just like this question, if you asked Wang Shaoyan in advance, it would not be a problem at the moment." In fact, Xi Cui is really difficult to answer this question of his, because whether he should say it or not, how to say it is a problem.

Nangong Yufeng could only ask Duan San about it, but Duan San was silent at this time, he only listened to Xi Cui.

Qi Yu, who had been silent, did not speak, but he had already thought a lot in his heart. He secretly guessed Xi Cui's identity, and her identity had changed since she became Xi Yunting's companion. There was nothing to make a fuss about Xi Cui giving out a silver ingot today, but the point was the sentence that Duan San said after she gave away the silver ingot, "The last thing our girl lacks is money." Duan San is a person who doesn't talk nonsense, and his ability to say this sentence is enough to show that Xi Cui is not ordinary rich now, but the master's reward is not enough for Duan San to make such an evaluation. The Wang family doesn't have such wealth, Xi Yunting won't do something like that, so where does her money come from?

Nangong Yufeng wanted to talk to Xi Cui, but there were so many people in the room that it was obviously a little crowded. But he can't just drive Qi Yu away, he still understands what to come first and then come, let alone in front of Xi Cui. Now that things have come to this point, we can only continue to do it. Xi Cui's cooperation is very important, if you want Xi Cui to cooperate, you must first tell the whole thing honestly, but if this matter is okay, he doesn't even want Duan San to know, let alone Qi Yu?

So his disgusted gaze fell on Qi Yu seemingly nothing, making it difficult for Qi Yu to ignore it. Finally Qi Yu figured it out, the priorities were urgent, and the most important thing for him at the moment was Chunyu. Only after the spring is over, and he keeps his life on the right track according to the established plan, can he put his mind at ease and investigate other things that can arouse his curiosity.

At the moment, more things are better than less, Nangong Yufeng is in the limelight now, and it is safest for him to keep a distance from him.

Qi Yu said goodbye very well, which made Nangong Yufeng instantly feel very satisfied with the murderous aura hidden in his body. Sure enough, what I learned from the battlefield really makes people feel awe.

Qi Yu, who walked out of the tavern, took a deep breath of the air outside, and suddenly couldn't remember what he looked like when he followed Xi Cui inside, obviously it was just more than an hour ago. But between this entry and exit, there was a sudden feeling of being separated from the world, whether it was the conversation with Xi Cui or the few things he experienced, it was enough for him to experience thrilling.

Thinking of the time when I went shopping with Xi Cui in the past, it was really far away like my previous life, and those days were really gone.

Let's talk about the Miss Cao who left in a huff. She has never been a person who swallows her anger, and after leaving the tavern, she called the two maids with her to start spreading rumors outside, saying that Xi Cui not only seduced Nangong Yufeng and Wang Shaoyan, but also had a private meeting with another man from time to time. Didn't Xi Cui say that he didn't care about his reputation? Then it stinks even more.

Let's go back to the private room, after Qi Yu left, Nangong Yufeng's face immediately became solemn, he stood up and sat opposite Xi Cui, "There is something I need to confess to you......"

Duan San stood beside Xi Cui, and it was the first time he had seen Nangong Yufeng look like this, and he couldn't help but look at him twice.

"Confess what? Is the reason you are doing this or how can I cooperate with you in the future? "Are you finally going to say it? Xi Cui tightened her nails, and finally knew the reason why she had been criticized these days...... (To be continued.) )
