Chapter 344: Resentment Arises from the Heart
On this day, the weather was excellent, the cool autumn breeze brought a burst of fruit fragrance, and the begonia flowers in the yard also fell to the ground.
Fen Ai's giggling laughter came from the courtyard, as moving as silver bells, and a bowl of sweet porridge was placed on the bluestone table.
Now with Fen Ai's company, Lan Wan'er is not bored, and truly verifies the sentence that children are their mother's little angels, and their appearance is to accompany them through every lonely time.
Lan Wan'er hugged Fen Ai in her arms, and saw that she seemed to want to walk on the ground, and then she reluctantly put her on the ground, and it was only a few months since she was born, which really shocked her.
She carefully supported the little girl.
At this time, Mu Liuyun came to the courtyard and was very surprised to see Fen Ai, who had only been a few months old, learning to walk: "Why is this little girl so powerful?" ”
After Lan Wan'er heard the voice, she smiled bitterly, and then looked at Mu Liuyun with her mouth shutting her mouth, and she was also very helpless.
Subsequently, Mu Liuyun walked to the side and helped Lan Wan'er to help Fen Ai learn to walk, in the process, he found that Fen Ai had a good bone and was a good seedling for learning martial arts, so he asked Lan Wan'er, "Xiao Fen Ai is a martial arts material, when she grows up, how about I teach her light skills?" ”
Lan Wan'er looked at Fen Ai, she has been very active since she was born, and when she sees fun and novel things, she wants to go up and touch them, since Mu Liuyun said this, she should go.
After all, there is nothing wrong with women learning martial arts and self-defense.
These days, Lan Wan'er runs the Luo Palace, letting Mishu and Shen teach those children kung fu, and she often goes to the Luo Palace to check the situation, sometimes holding Fen Ai to go, and the children like her very much.
"Princess, you have to be the master of us civilians, the casino in Shili Lane did a black business and cheated all our money, but we can't find a way to do it, how can this be good...... Every time, I lost everything......"
An old man knelt in front of Lan Wan'er crying and reported to her that there was a problem with the casino that he was connected to.
"Uncle, don't worry, I'll naturally take care of this matter."
Lan Wan'er is a warm-hearted person, and she has nothing to do these days, so she went to the street to investigate the matter, and after settling down, Fen Ai went to the casino.
Then, she dressed up as a man, after all, most of the people who entered the casino were men, which also saved the attention of interested people.
There are all kinds of people in the casino, but most of them are two kinds of people, one is a magic stick, and the other is a poor gambler who wants to turn over.
Lan Xuan'er came to a table and looked at it, this gambling is simple, betting on the size of the bet, it all depends on luck.
She took out a bag of silver from her pocket, threw it on the table in a grand manner, then touched her mustache, and then squinted her eyes and said, "I'll buy big!" ”
The gamblers around him looked at this fresh face, disapproving, and sighed, as if they looked down on her, but after one or two cases, Lan Wan'er won double the amount of silver.
The person next to him was red-eyed, but it was hard to say anything.
In this process, Lan Wan'er didn't find anything wrong, and there was no trick to play tricks, everything was normal, it was estimated that Fen Ai was about to wake up at this point, and she was ready to leave with the money she had won.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw several Scarface, One-Eyed Dragons blocking her way.
"Boy, I advise you to hand over the silver ticket you won, otherwise ...... Hmph, don't even think about walking out of this door today! ”
A few people blocked the way, aggressive, quite a ruffian, but they were also bullies specially invited by the casino, the purpose was to stop the account that flowed out of the casino.
Lan Wan'er looked at the silver ticket in her hand, "Want this?" Then we have to see if you have what you can do......" With that, her eyes darkened, and she tucked the silver ticket into her sleeve.
These bullies felt provoked, so they waved their fists, opened their teeth and claws to hit Lan Wan'er, but before they got close, they were knocked to the ground by Lan Wan'er one by one.
Several bullies grinned and clutched their stomachs, rolling back and forth on the ground.
"Just your three-legged cat kung fu, go back to practice and then fight against this master!" Lan Wan'er shook her head, her words were provocative, and she glanced at them with disdain, and left with the winning silver ticket.
After returning to the house, after thinking about it carefully, those bullies were dead, and Lan Xuan'er realized that something was wrong.
Someone must be behind this.
"Looking for books, who opened the casino in Ten Mile Lane?"
She inquired about looking for books, but it happened that she knew about them, so she told her in 1510, and later Lan Wan'er learned that the owner of this casino was opened by Wang Chongwen, the prime minister's son.
As long as the guests win money, it is to send bullies to block the road to grab money, and it is no wonder that such casinos cause dissatisfaction among the people, and most of the people who go to gamble are gambling with their lives, just hoping to be able to turn over the poor people, in this way, is it not to cut off their back road......
Not to mention this, it is not right for a casino to behave like this.
Lan Wan'er told Wei Xuanyun about this, and the two went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit the Prime Minister together.
"I don't know that the king and the princess of Wei are coming, and they are not welcome, and they are ready to prepare tea."
The prime minister still looks like a smiling tiger.
But Lan Wan'er didn't come to drink tea this time, she waved her hand, "The prime minister is too polite, there is no need to drink tea, the two of us came here to ask the prime minister for verification." ”
The prime minister looked unconfused, "Oh? ”
"I wonder if the prime minister can know that Lingzi Wang Chongwen's casino is harshly accepting money won by the people? If it is not given, it will be solved by violent means. Lan Wan'er got straight to the point and directly expressed her intentions.
Hearing this, the prime minister's face was calm, but he chuckled in his heart, "I don't know about this matter, and I still need to review this matter......
He just pretended not to know.
Wei Xuanyun looked at the prime minister, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the prime minister, but the prime minister's face was not red, his heart was not beating, as if he really didn't know.
The two had to go home, it seemed that he couldn't find a way to solve it, and the two could only wait for the opportunity.
In the evening, Wei Xuanyun took Lan Wan'er and Fen Ai to see the fireflies, these days Fen Ai has learned to walk, compared to babies of the same age, she is more intelligent.
The fireflies by the lake emitted this yellow light, like a fairy carrying a small lantern, Fen Ai's small head chased after the fireflies, accidentally slipped under his feet, and fell to the ground.
Lan Xuan'er was worried, and Wei Xuanyun hurriedly went up to check.
Who knew that Fen Ai not only didn't cry, but also giggled.
Lan Wan'er shook her head, stepped forward to pat the dust on Fen Ai's body, and pinched her little face helplessly: "Fen Ai, be careful in the future, it hurts ......to fall down."
I don't know if she understood, but she just winked at the two of them, and then went to chase the fireflies.
Wei Xuanyun and Lan Xuan'er looked at Fen Ai's appearance, and they were very pleased, and it happened that at this time, Zhiwan also came to the lake to enjoy the scenery, and she accidentally didn't see the little Fen Ai under her, so she knocked her to the ground.
"Wow......!"
Fen Ai cried this time.
Lan Xuan'er and Wei Xuanyun hurriedly went up to check, only to see that Zhiwan was at a loss.
"It's because she doesn't have long eyes, I didn't hit her!" Zhiwan muttered, her words trembling a little.
This sentence provoked Lan Wan'er's heart to be even more angry.
Fen Ai's arm was scratched by the dark stone on the ground, and the skin was broken, Lan Xuan'er's heart hurt, and she instantly lost her mind, got up and slapped Zhiwan.
"Bang", crisp and loud.
Zhiwan touched his hot face, looked at Lan Wan'er in front of him incredulously, and a tear came out of his eyes.
At this time, the maid beside Zhiwan was angry, and directly pinched Fen Ai's arm, the child's skin was delicate, and she saw that her skin suddenly turned red and purple, Fen Ai cried louder, and tears fell like golden beans.
Wei Xuanyun's eyes darkened, so that Lan Wan'er covered Fen Ai's eyes, he stepped forward and kicked the maid directly to the ground, took out a long sword and pierced the maid's heart, the method was ruthless, it seemed to show his dark side again, and then threw her into the lake to feed the fish.
Zhiwan shivered on the side, couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and left in a huff.
The maid didn't expect that she would end up like this next time.
But everything is also what she deserves, and to put it seriously, it is a deliberate murder of the royal nobles.
The next day, Zhiwan told Xia Concubine about it, she felt that Wei Xuanyun was ruthless and careless about human life, and when she found Xia Concubine, her face turned pale as if she had seen a ghost.
But Xia Concubine asked Zhiwan to bow her head and admit her mistake.
After all, it was originally something that could be solved as long as she apologized, but she had to contradict the matter, and Wei Xuanyun punished that maid, and it was indeed not wrong Moreover, the strength of the Wei Mansion now, the Xia family can't shake it at all.
Xia Concubine picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, looked at Zhiwan faintly, and said word by word: "Today you will go to Wei Mansion, get some good gifts, and apologize to them, do you know?" ”
"......" Zhiwan bit his lip, resentful and dissatisfied in his heart.
She never felt that she had done something wrong in this matter, and she was just a girl, both of them were county lords, why did she apologize to a little kid?
In the study, the emperor was holding a brush to practice calligraphy, he was in a very happy mood, and his complexion was much better than a few days ago.
Xia Concubine brought some pastries over, and there was a fragrance that was very tempting, and she said, "Your Majesty, you can rest, the concubine brought you pastries." ”
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and praised it.
"Your Majesty, now that Zhiwan is not young, it's time to find a good family for her, according to the concubine, who is an aunt, why don't you marry her to Shaoqing of Dali Temple?"
After hearing this, the emperor put down the pastry, but he was unwilling in his heart, feeling that the two were not only not a good match, but especially felt that once the two families got along, it might not be easy to control.
"No, Rong Zhen is looking for a good family for Zhiwan, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry."
With that, the emperor got up and left the study with his hands behind his back.
Xia Concubine looked at the emperor's back, and her face turned cold for a moment, but she couldn't change the emperor's mind and decision, after all, she was no longer favored.
Then, the emperor gave Zhiwan Xu to a seven-rank official.
