Chapter Twenty-Eight: Failure
Lu Fang heard the uncle say that a son bought him, she guessed that it was the Zuo Overseer who did it on purpose, she asked, "Uncle, who is that son?" What does it look like? ”
The storyteller waved his hand and said, "Don't ask, girl, I'm going to continue to tell the story, it's the suave boy before, the one you talked to him tonight." ”
It turned out to be really him, Lu Fang understood in her heart now, the Overseer clearly refused the summons of the county lord, no matter how much money was given to the storyteller, the overseer would still not go, how should she return to the county lord!
She ran to the room disappointed, knelt on the ground and didn't dare to look directly at Qishang, and said fearfully: "County Lord, Gongzi Xiyan won't come tonight." ”
"What did you say, make it clear, didn't you say that you would come over after listening to the book? What about people? Qishang put the tea cup in his hand on the table and looked at her coldly.
Lu Fang's head was about to be buried in the ground, and she stammered in fright: "That's ...... It's Childe's excuse, I thought it was ...... I thought that the son would come, but I didn't know that the storyteller was still continuing to tell the story, and the others had already returned to the room. ”
"How unreasonable is that my lord of the county should have summoned you to treat me like this! Lu Fang, what are you doing to eat, I can't understand what Childe said, I have waited for so long in vain. Qishang angrily smashed the tea cup on the table to the ground, and the tea cup shattered into slag with a 'pop'!
Lu Fang's heart clicked, when she came, she knew that she would have to bear the thunderous wrath of the county lord, she stood up and trembled and lifted her skirt up, revealing her legs covered with scars, Qishang stood up, took out her nine-section whip and whipped her leg fiercely, Lu Fang gritted her teeth tightly, snorted in pain, tears rolled out of her eyes! Just as he was about to receive her next whip, the county lord put down the whip rarely.
"Today, I will punish you with a whip for the time being, and give me a snack in the future." Thinking that she would need to go with her tomorrow, it would not be good to be noticed by Xi Yan on the way, so she put down her whip and said compassionately.
Lu Fang received her forgiveness and choked up, "Thank you, Lord County." "She really hated in her heart! But what is the way to be a slave under the fence, and if there is a big grievance, you can only swallow it in your stomach.
Qishang raised her chin arrogantly, opened her thin lips lightly, and said coldly: "I'm still dreaming there, and I haven't come to serve me to change clothes!" ”
After changing clothes, Qishang lay on the bed and thought about it carefully, this past Yan Zuo Overseer has always said that he likes the Miss of the Chi family, can the Miss of the Chi family compare with her? She is the daughter of the dignified King of the South, and she is the county lord who is most likely to inherit the prince in the future of the South Prince's Mansion, and whoever marries her will have the power of the South Prince's Mansion! It doesn't hurt him to let her pigeon go tonight, as long as she has some more fierce material, she still doesn't believe that he can not be moved!
The next morning, after eating early, Qishang sat in the room and waited, she was waiting for Xi Yan to ask her when she would leave, she was not in a hurry, it was better to leave a few days later, so that she could create more opportunities on the way.
Xi Yan sat on the table, fiddling with the chess pieces alone, and the servant Xiao Feng helped him fan on the side, seeing that it was noon, he couldn't help but ask: "Childe, when do we have to wait until we leave, this county lord's illness is also cured, why aren't you in a hurry?" ”
Xi Yan picked up a chess piece and put it in front of the cannon opposite, and said calmly: "I'm waiting, waiting for her to take the initiative to set off." ”
"But Childe, this is not a method, if she pretends to be sick on the way, you still have to wait for her." Xiao Feng has been serving by the side of the prince all the year round, so he naturally knows the thoughts of the county lord of Qishang to the son.
"It's okay, I'll always cut off her thoughts, and no one can force anything I don't want in this world." He sneered and placed another piece in front of him to the left of his horse.
Qishang waited in the guest room for the evening again, this old word completely hung her up, and did not come to visit her to inquire about her in the slightest, and she sat there with a black face the whole time, and she did not believe that he was not in a hurry to join the envoy's troops.
The second day was like this, the third day was still the same, and in the blink of an eye, Qishang tossed and turned in bed for a night, for three consecutive days, Xi Yan didn't come to ask about her situation, and I don't know what he thought, seeing that this day has passed without any progress, this is not good, she has to take the initiative.
Xiao Feng saw that the time was passing day by day, Childe was not in a hurry, but he was in a hurry, and when Childe was lying on the bed and was about to go to bed, he asked, "Childe, when are we leaving?" It seems that it has been delayed for three or four days. ”
Xi Yan sat on the bed, yawned, and said in a low magnetic voice: "It's a lot of things, I'm not in a hurry, you are in a hurry, and you will set off tomorrow." ”
In the morning, after eating breakfast, Xi Yan was holding a book and looking at it, when the guard outside the door reported: "Lord Overseer, the beauty who offered the gift asks to see you." ”
Xi Yan sneered and finally came, and he said lightly: "Let her in." ”
Lu Fang walked in with her head bowed and uneasy, and gave a formal salute, "Overseer Da'an." ”
Xi Yan looked at her restrained appearance and asked, "Say, what is the important matter of your master, is she okay?" ”
Lu Fang whispered: "My lord, my master is fine, she wants you to go, I don't know if you can take the time to go." She pleaded silently to the Overseers this time, or she would be miserable.
In Qishang's guest room, Xi Yan sat expressionlessly on a chair next to the window, and the servant Xiao Feng stood next to him.
Qishang sat on a chair in a crimson cigarette dress, and said with a slight complaint on her beautiful face, "But I finally invited the Overseer." ”
Xi Yan smiled and said: "County Lord, I haven't seen you for a few days, but my condition is better, just because the county lord is sick and I dare not bother." ”
I didn't dare to bother, Qishang felt uncomfortable when he heard this official face, and if he didn't come, he wouldn't come and said it so high-sounding! She asked rhetorically, "Is that your lord going to stay here without opening my mouth?" ”
After a brief silence, the merchant said, "You all go down, I have a few words to say to the Overseers." ”
The maid Lu Fang hurriedly retreated, Xiao Feng looked at Xi Yan, Xi Yan nodded, and he also walked out.
Seeing that there are only the two of them left, I don't know what tricks she wants to play! He wanted to see what big waves she could make, and he replied lightly: "I believe that the county lord has his own decision, and he will definitely focus on the overall situation, and his subordinates will obey the order." ”
Qishang saw that his flawless face was slightly indifferent, and he sat on the edge of the window lattice in a silk as clean as snow, and he was like a god under the light of the morning sun, which made her heart ripple in the bottom of her heart, and felt that she was thousands of miles away from her.
"I know what the Overseers mean, and I'm going to focus on the big picture, but the Overseers are too shut out of me." Qishang smiled, let go of a little frustration in his heart, and laughed at himself.
"I really didn't expect the county lord to have such thoughts, but his subordinates never had such thoughts. It's just that the county lord is in the mood for a long time, and his subordinates naturally have to keep their distance, so they can follow the etiquette law. Xi Yan stood up and replied politely.
Qishang let out a long sigh and said melancholy: "My lord knows my mind, I have understood the feeling of being disheartened these days, don't you understand my mind, or ignore my mind?" “
actually staged a bitter love scene, the past words were extremely boring, and said solemnly: "The county lord is wrong to love, you understand my intentions, don't waste your energy on me." ”
Qishang stood up and approached, and said gently: "My lord, I won't think about it anymore, I am the county lord, and I will be the successor of the king of the south in the future, with your mind, if you have the support of my palace of the south king, it is not a bird in the sky in the Yunmeng country." ”
"Oh, so would you rather give up the position of King of the South to me, or do you want to attach myself to you?" Xi Yan asked with a smile, admiring the straightforwardness of this woman in her heart, it is undeniable that this is indeed a big move! With her powerful position, she can indeed be so domineering!
Qishang saw that Xi Yan was not hypocritical when he asked her, and said directly: "As long as you are willing, I dare to give you the position of the king of the south, what does this mean, the overseers won't know, right?" ”
Xi Yan turned his back and leaned on the windowsill, looked up at Chaoxia in the sky, and said, "If I still don't want to, what will the county lord do?" ”
Qishang looked at him and turned his back, and also walked to the window and pointed to the morning glow in the sky and said: "This is like this rising sun, it is more brilliant with Yunxia as a backdrop, and the same is true for the overseers, if you reject me, you should know what kind of opportunity you have refused, and how many sons in Yunmeng Kingdom can't ask for opportunities." ”
Xi Yan sneered, took out a fan and fanned it and said slowly: "The county lord wants to use this power to seduce me, but although I am not talented in the past, I can't go against my heart for the sake of power. ”
"Now that the Overseer has said this, I'm telling you the truth, I'm not going to let it go easily. Please consider it carefully! She looked at him with a smile, and thought one, two, and three in her heart...... As long as he is fascinated, he can still run away from all the raw rice cooked into rice!
Xi Yan sneered and said unhappily: "What if the county lord doesn't let go, the twisted melon is not sweet!" Saying that, he walked to the chair and sat down, looking at her coldly, don't think that he doesn't know her small actions, he has already taken precautions if he knew her person, he just wants to wait for her to lose face, and he will no longer dare to covet him!
Dead silence, lasting about a quarter of an hour, Xi Yan sat there well, her face was not red, her heart was not beating, and she did not show any expression of infatuation with incense, Qi Shang secretly said in her heart, the plan had failed, and her face was flushed with anger and shame.
Xi Yan stood up and said with a mocking smile: "Your plan failed, the charm incense doesn't work for me, you think I don't know what you're doing behind your back, I'll give you the last decency, this incident should be treated as if it never happened, please respect yourself!" ”
Xi Yan folded the fan and said coldly: "I'm leaving, I'm going to prepare for departure." ”
Qishang's heart was like a storm, he actually knew that she was performing alone like a clown! Holding back the shame in his heart, he kept the last sanity and shouted: "Bi Xiyan, if you walk out of this door today, you will be the enemy of my Xiqi Shang!" ”
Xi Yan didn't make any stay, he gave a salute indifferently and walked out, and when he walked out, she angrily smashed all the tea cups on the table to the ground, which was still not angry, and he smashed the vase on the counter to pieces......
She has seen this incomprehensible past words thoroughly, she is so bad that she can't get into his eyes, and she has lost so much face today, how can she compare to the young lady of the Buchi family!
After an hour, the maid came in and spread the word that the Overseer asked her if she was ready, and she calmed down from her anger, and he wanted to repay the grievances she suffered today, and she was afraid of losing all her face, she had not been defeated by anything, wait and see!
