Chapter 43: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
And in fact, it's really not Qin Muhan.
Several days have passed since he was separated from Shang Yunqian that night, and Qin Muhan's body has improved.
"The emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the assassination, presumably during this time, those people will stop for a while."
Qin Muhan nodded, and threw the stove aside with some disgust.
Qing Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong, my lord?" ”
Qin Muhan did not answer.
He leaned lazily behind him, and suddenly found that no matter how warm the stove was, it couldn't compare to Shang Yunqian's small body holding warmth.
His gaze swept over Qing Xuan.
Walk through Qingxuan and look towards the door.
It's been a few days, why hasn't that girl come yet?
This is not in her character!
Isn't it, his injury makes her feel guilty?
Or was it really freaking her out?
Or is she really obedient and started working hard?
Qin Muhan moved his body irritably.
Dissatisfied.
In any case, he should be concerned about his injuries.
He deliberately let the butler slow down a little healing.
In order to make that girl feel a little more guilty.
Could it be that this joke is a little bigger?
Qing Xuan was stared at by Qin Muhan, and stepped back slightly.
found that Qin Muhan's gaze became deeper and deeper.
I couldn't help but retreat a little.
This retreat collided directly with the housekeeper who came in with the medicine bowl.
"Qingxuan, what are you doing here? Is there a ghost behind you? ”
Qing Xuan pulled his throat to signal, there is no ghost, but there is one complaining husband.
"Ahem." The housekeeper blinked his eyes, he already understood, checked the wound casually, and said seriously, "My lord, if you don't treat this wound, it will be infected." ”
Qin Muhan was a little disappointed, and for the first time in his life, he felt that the housekeeper was an eyesore.
He is not afraid of the outbreak, but he is still afraid of infection?
"My lord, your body is your own, and if the second lady doesn't come, it means that she doesn't care about your injury at all, and you don't have to embarrass yourself for this."
Qin Muhan frowned.
"Adult ......"
"Pills."
Too lazy to listen to the housekeeper's ramblings, Qin Muhan directly handed his shoulder out.
His cooperation made the housekeeper smile.
I was in a good mood and talked a lot.
"Qingxuan, have you been to the General's Mansion recently, is the second lady okay?"
"The adult is seriously ill, and Qingxuan has never left even a step."
While changing the dressing, the housekeeper reminded, "Anyway, the second lady was frightened near Chitose Mansion that night, and she was caught in the rain, and we people in Chitose Mansion should go and condole with us." ”
Qing Xuan frowned, and was about to refuse.
Qin Muhan suddenly spoke, "That makes sense." ”
"Huh?"
"It's time to check it out."
Hearing this, the housekeeper threw a meaningful look at Qing Xuan, and Qing Xuan had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Half an hour later, Qing Xuan rushed over.
The tone is rapid.
"My lord, the second lady was picked up by the Ye family on the second day after she left the Chitose Mansion, and she didn't have time to drink the medicine prescribed by Fu Bo."
Qin Muhan frowned, if she hadn't drunk the medicine, she wouldn't have gotten sick, right?
"What about the people sent to the General's Palace? Why not? ”
"......" Qing Xuan was stunned, what the master said that night was true, but he ...... I actually forgot about it.
"Send someone to find it, be sure to find Shang Yunqian as quickly as possible."
"Yes."
"Wait."
"What else do you command?"
"If Shang Yunqian is fine, don't be disturbed, just protect it secretly."
"Yes."
Walking and stopping all the way, when I arrived at Ye's house, ten days had passed.
The wind and sun all the way made Shang Yunqian's originally fair little face a little more vicissitudes.
The wound has been completely healed.
Without asking anyone for help, Shang Yun jumped off the carriage.
is a casual and free character, but some people don't like it.
No sooner had his feet hit the ground than a very harsh accusation came.
"Where did the wild girl come from, so rude?"
Shang Yunqian raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not speak.
"Say you, let's go."
Shang Yunqian stood in place, not moving, and the groom who was driving the car lowered his head, obviously not wanting to help her speak.
Seeing this, the old man raised his eyebrows and commanded the guards at the door, "Come on, drive away." ”
As he spoke, three or five people came and drove them away.
"Idle people, etc., don't get close, go quickly."
Shang Yunqian is not an unreasonable person, he smiled slightly, and was about to introduce himself.
The guards didn't give her such a chance, as if to curry favor with the old man, and they rushed to Shang Yunqian.
The action was rude, and while pulling, he also touched Shang Yunqian's little hand.
Shang Yun squinted slightly, and there was a hint of danger in his eyes.
This minion of Ye Mansion is simply bold.
I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore.
Shang Yunqian raised his foot and kicked the little guy who touched her little hand to the ground.
A wail sounded, and the old man's face showed a fierce light.
With a wave of his hand, the four or five guards who were still standing at the door all ran towards Shang Yunqian.
The stick in his hand hit Shang Yun's shallow head directly.
Treat the girl so viciously, she should be beaten.
Shang Yun spun around shallowly, kicking these guards one after another in three or five strokes.
The old man's hands trembled, pointing at Shang Yunqian and trembling, and he accused sharply.
"You wild girl, do you know where this is, and you dare to make trouble here?"
After all, he didn't dare to step forward.
After all......
The Ye family has been businessmen for generations.
Businessmen, don't do anything.
Shang Yunqian raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Who are you?" ”
"I am Elder Qing, one of the three elders of the Ye family." tone, quite proud.
Shang Yunqian nodded, "Elder Qing, I remember." ”
"Hmph, you know my identity, and you still don't admit it?"
"They were the ones who hit me first."
"Injured my Ye Mansion guard for no reason, this account, the old man has to settle this account with you."
Shang Yun bowed shallowly, pretending to be, "So, dare to ask Elder Qing, how do you plan to deal with this matter?" ”
Seeing Shang Yunqian's respectful appearance, Elder Qing looked arrogant.
He knew that here, everyone would back down when they heard his name.
Look, this girl wasn't very arrogant just now, and now, isn't she still cowardly.
Thinking about it, Elder Qing's expression changed slightly, he straightened his clothes, and then swaggered out from behind the guards.
He stared at Shang Yunqian, his gaze sweeping over her one by one.
The small body that has not yet grown up, with the temptation of youth.
Although the delicate little face is not stunning, it is also delicate and cute. Coupled with the heroic spirit she showed just now, he really liked it.
In his eyes, a touch of imperativeness flashed, and with a lewd smile on his face, "This matter is very simple to deal with." ”
"Oh?"
"First, you just have to get down on your knees and apologize."
Shang Yunqian's eyes narrowed instantly, and Elder Qing's heart trembled slightly, and he was even more satisfied with a little pepper like Shang Yunqian.
The more intense the temperament, the more enjoyable it is to play.
"Kneel down and apologize? Are you sure? ”
Elder Qing didn't notice that the aura around Shang Yunqian's body had changed, he rubbed his hands together and approached Shang Yunqian step by step, "It's okay if you don't want to kneel, as long as you ......"
"Smack, ahhh
The sound of fighting, the sound of broken bones, and screams were mixed together, and when he looked closely, he found that the little guy who had quietly approached Shang Yunqian in order to curry favor with Elder Qing had been tamed to the ground by her, and by the way, he removed one of his arms.
The change came too quickly, and Elder Qing's face turned pale with fright, and his body suddenly took a few steps back.
He stretched out his old hand, which was already full of wrinkles, and pointed at Shang Yunqian, "You, you are bold ......"
Shang Yunqian approached him, and he kept retreating.
One of them didn't pay attention, stepped on the person lying on the ground, and smashed it straight to the ground.
Although he was quickly caught by the quick-eyed little guy, his old bones couldn't withstand such a toss.
Standing up tremblingly, looking at Shang Yunqian at this moment, there was only resentment in his heart.
"I originally intended to let you go, since you toast and don't eat and have to eat and drink, then it's no wonder to me, you, take it for me."
After speaking, more than a dozen small servants poured out from inside the gate again.
Shang Yunqian moved his body slightly, his grandfather's meeting gift was really big.
"Gollum, Gollum."
At this moment, several carriages followed.
"It's Steward Ye, the second master and the eldest young master are back."
A vicious battle, with their arrival, was quietly resolved.
At the same time, there were a lot of people around.
They also want to see what the granddaughter of the richest man in the world looks like.
"What's going on?"
Steward Ye was the first to arrive, looking at the arrogant sword slaves at the door, his brows furrowed.
Receiving Elder Qing's eyes, a small group hurriedly stepped forward and told Shang Yunqian everything he had done before.
Because he didn't know Shang Yunqian's identity, he didn't deliberately exaggerate his rhetoric.
However, Shang Yunqian was quite unexpectedly restored to the beginning and end of the matter.
"How can it be?"
Steward Ye shouted angrily, and Elder Qing laughed instantly, looking at Shang Yunqian's eyes, full of pride.
The Ye family, although it is not related to the royal family, everyone knows that the head of the family has a deep friendship with the emperor, so ordinary people do not dare to go to the Ye Mansion to make a mistake.
This little girl, the unlucky day is coming.
However, in the anticipation on Elder Qing's face, Steward Ye slapped the talking guy with his backhand.
Elder Qing's face changed abruptly, hitting this little guy at this moment was equivalent to hitting him in the face.
Even if Steward Ye has the love of the head of the family, he is still the elder of the family after all.
The face is not good, and the tone is not good.
"Steward Ye, what is this doing? As a housekeeper, you don't protect the face of the Ye family, but you still beat your own people for an outsider? ”
Steward Ye looked at Elder Qing and said in a respectful tone, "The face of the Ye family, Ye always remembers it in his heart, but Elder Qing, haven't you forgotten, this time, what is the task that the family gave me?" ”
"How can you forget? Pick up the little lady and go home, but this is the same as this little ......" Halfway through speaking, all the expressions of Elder Qing froze on his face.
The proud girl in front of her.
Although the dress is modest, the material is first-class.
The material is luxurious, and the temperament is also first-class.
She is either rich or expensive.
Just now, he only paid attention to her figure, and forgot to observe this.
Elder Qing was remorseful, but in his heart, there was still a trace of luck.
The person who was picked up by Steward Ye should also come down with Steward Ye, and besides, the person who just drove the car did not remind him.
Elder Qing looked behind Shang Yunqian, and it was empty.
Eyes, twilight's wide-open.
What about the guy who drove the car?
Shang Yunqian was quite amused by his actions, she noticed the departure of the little guy early in the morning, that person was arranged by Ye Qing, and if something happened at this moment, he would definitely not stay in place.
Anyway, she didn't see the little guy's appearance clearly, and even if she asked in the future, he could push it to others with a word.
At that time, he will have a reason to shirk, he doesn't know anything, it was arranged by his subordinates.
In this way, even if my grandfather investigates it, at most it is a lax discipline.
Oh, it's a cunning old fox.
"Miss has already returned to the house first, and right now, the one standing in front of you is the granddaughter of the head of the family, our little miss, Shang Yunqian."
In a word, it can be regarded as completely shattering the hopes of Elder Qing and the others.
The little guy immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy incessantly.
The housekeeper's face was slightly gloomy, and then he said, "Listen to what Elder Qing means, do you just want the little lady to apologize to him?" ”
Just now, his carriage was arranged at the back, forcibly cutting off the connection with Shang Yunqian.
I thought there was nothing wrong, but I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived at my doorstep, such a conflict occurred.
looked at Ye Qing, who was belated.
The matter has been revealed.
No wonder he used the excuse of being uncomfortable to get out of the car and walk around for a while, in order to deliberately separate the distance between him and Shang Yunqian.
He wants to borrow someone else's hand to give Shang Yunqian a dismount,
He did it on purpose.
In his heart, he expressed dissatisfaction with Ye Qing's actions, but on his face, he couldn't tear his face yet.
However, when it was time to maintain Shang Yunyun, Steward Ye was by no means ambiguous.
Elder Qing hurriedly waved his hand, "How could it be, all this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." ”
Shang Yun was cold and cold, she could see that today, Ye Qing was planning to give her a dismount.
In that case, don't blame her for being rude.
"Misunderstanding? All the offenses just now, is it possible that they will not be blamed for Elder Qing's misunderstanding? ”
Hearing this, Elder Qing's face was uncertain.
He has always been arrogant.
On weekdays, he rarely meets someone who makes him look good.
Today, he received a notice from the head of the family that his granddaughter had returned and was going to have a family feast.
When he arrived at the door, he saw Shang Yunqian, who was outstanding, and couldn't help but accuse a few words.
Unexpectedly, the girl in front of her was actually the granddaughter of the head of the family.
And she has another identity.
The daughter of the great general of the dynasty.
In this kind of status, he should kneel and salute when he sees it.
And he just ......
Thinking of those words just now, Elder Qing felt a little worried in his heart.
After thinking about it, no matter how I say it, I can be regarded as an elder of Shang Yunqian, and this girl, looking at a child who is not familiar with the world, does not take it to heart.
"Then, what is the little lady going to do?" With that, he quickly changed the subject.
"The head of the family has been talking about the little lady for a long time, and if he knows that you have arrived, he will be happy."
"The little lady is really as rumored, she is captivating the country and the city, showing off her wisdom and ......"
The flattering smile made Shang Yun look straight to his stomach.
His deliberate transfer did not let Shang Yunqian be fooled.
Didn't Ye Qing want to give her a threat, then she just wanted to let it, the small things become big, and the big things are bigger.
"Elder Qing doesn't have to change the topic, I won't give up on today's matter."
Looking at the people on the ground who were trembling and begging for mercy, Shang Yun's eyes showed a cold light.
Ignoring Elder Qing, he turned to Steward Ye and said, "Butler, if you follow the Ye family's family rules and commit the following crimes, how should you punish them?" ”
This time, Shang Yunqian didn't call Uncle Ye, but such a title made the housekeeper's eyes show appreciation.
He bent down and immediately answered, "If it is light, hit the twenty boards, and if it is heavy, hit the thirty boards hard and expel the Ye family." ”
If a slave is expelled from a family because of a mistake, he will not be accepted by any other family in this life.
The following offenses are extremely serious in the family concept.
Hearing this, the little maid on the ground trembled more and more, and his eyes were full of despair and pleas.
It is true that although there are many rules for doing things in a large family, there are also many opportunities.
They never thought that in order to please someone, they would ruin all their future and ...... Life.
But now, no matter how much they regret it, it has happened.
Regret, useless.
There is no other way but to beg for mercy.
But Shang Yun was determined to be punished, how could he be soft-hearted because of their pleas for mercy.
"That being the case, after replaying the thirty boards, expelled from the family."
Hearing this, Elder Qing's face turned pale, and even Ye Qing, who was late, couldn't help frowning.
This business is shallow, and he just put up a shelf when he came.
But now, he had to speak.
"Don't be angry, the eldest niece, it's the subordinates who don't understand the rules, if you want me to see it, just punish it." As he spoke, without waiting for anyone to react, he spoke directly, "Come on, drag them down, and punish them for twenty." ”
Looking at Ye Qing's self-care arrangement, the smile on Shang Yunqian's face gradually converged.
"Wait."
The cold voice made the people present feel uplifted, Shang Yunqian looked at Ye Qing, his eyes were firm, the corners of his lips were puffed with a touch of arrogance, although he smiled again, his eyes were cold, "Uncle, Yun Qian is a person from this family?" ”
Ye Qing's expression was serious, "Whatever the eldest niece said, naturally yes." ”
"If that's the case, then why do I say so badly?"
Ye Qing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly relieved the siege, "How can you not count?" Didn't my uncle obey your wishes and bring people down to be punished? ”
"Uncle thinks Yun Qian is young and blind? You are so obvious maintenance, I really can't see it? ”
Ye Qing's face changed, "Eldest niece, there are some things that my uncle hasn't talked to you about yet, but no matter what, you are new to the city and you shouldn't be so reckless when you do things." ”
This is a threat.
As the saying goes, leave a line in everything, and see each other in the future.
But today, if Shang Yunqian saves face for him, in the future, I am afraid that this person will have to sit on top of her head.
"Reckless?" Shang Yun snorted coldly, "So in the end, my uncle is afraid that he won't admit that I'm from this family, right?" ”
"How?"
"I am the one who is despised, and my uncle doesn't help me or blames me for being reckless, is this a performance of the family?"
"The eldest niece misunderstood, I'm just worried that you're messing with people you shouldn't provoke, and my uncle is worried about you."
"Don't worry about my uncle, since this matter started because of me, it should also be ended by me."
was ignored one after another, and there were more and more people gathered around to watch the excitement, Ye Qing's face couldn't hold back, and his face was slightly gloomy, "Yun Qian, I have the final say in this matter." ”
"Really?" Shang Yunqian sneered, "Uncle just said, I am a member of this family, since the person they bully is me, therefore, I have the right to punish, besides, even if I am not my grandfather's own granddaughter, as the daughter of the general's mansion, they look down on me like this, I still have the right to punish." No matter where I say it in the end, I have the absolute right to speak, and I believe that the truth is definitely on my side, so why does my uncle continue to interfere? ”
Ye Qing's hand hanging by his side was clenched tightly, and the green tendons on his hand were rising.
With that said, what else can he say?
Moreover, there are many onlookers, and he can't be talked about.
His eyes stared at Shang Yunqian heavily.
She's really not as easy to deal with as an ordinary girl.
"The eldest niece laughed, what you did was right, and those who committed such offenses should be punished."
With a smile on his face, in his heart, he greeted Shang Yunqian's eighteen ancestors.
At the time of the stalemate, someone walked out.
"Steward Ye is back?" Immediately, the man smiled slightly and looked at Shang Yun, "This is the little lady, right?" Please forgive me for the disappointment. ”
Shang Yunqian bowed his head slightly and did not speak.
From the attitude of the housekeeper, it can be seen that this person's status is not low.
Moreover, Shang Yunqian was sure that he must have arrived early in the morning.
He had never shown up before the accident, but he was the first to appear after the matter was resolved.
This person is either timid and afraid, or he is scheming.
However, Shang Yunqian does not think it is the former.
Shang Yunqian hooked his lips slightly, and suddenly he was full of expectations for the next few days.
Soon, the group was led by the man to the antechamber.
The main position, Ye Chonghua has been waiting for a long time.
"The head of the house, the little lady has arrived."
Ye Chonghua's gaze swept over Ye Qing and the others casually, and in the end, it fell on Shang Yunqian.
The girl is a little thin, her steps are straight and powerful, her delicate chin is slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth are with a touch of curiosity, a touch of calmness, and a little calm.
After the identification, there is no doubt that it is his own granddaughter.
Looking at Shang Yunqian, who was getting closer and closer, the smile on Ye Chonghua's face gradually converged, and was replaced by majesty and a little complexity.
Under his deep eyes, there was a gentleness that could not be concealed.
On the old face, it seemed that there were a thousand words waiting to be spoken.
Looking at Ye Chonghua like this, Shang Yunqian twitched slightly recently, and the tip of his nose was pantothenic, but he forcibly suppressed all his emotions.
"Shang Yunqian, I've seen my grandfather."
Shang Yun bowed down and said words that were extremely indifferent.
Ye Chonghua squirmed the corners of his lips a few times, and for a long time, he only said one sentence, "Hmm." ”
After that, he sat down and chatted a few words, and then asked people to take Shang Yunqian to his residence.
After rushing for many days in a row, Shang Yunqian was also tired.
There are thousands of emotions hidden in my heart, but I can only wait for a break to make plans.
As soon as the door closed, Shang Yun suddenly felt a sharp gaze staring straight at her behind her.
Turning his head, he slammed into the person behind him, and after only a few rounds, Shang Yunqian was already defeated.
Looking at the man who suddenly appeared in the room like a ghost, Shang Yunqian's heart trembled slightly.
Rao was in the daytime, but she was still frightened into a cold sweat by the man's strange martial arts and appearance methods.
"You, what are you going to do?"
