Chapter Twenty-Five: Fighting Grievances
Obviously, he was still tense just now, and the enemies were very red when they met, but now he has become a good husband who works hard and complains.
Chu Huairan didn't want Xiao Wanyan to get involved in the affairs of the court, he really had a heart for Xiao Wanyan, even if Xiao Wanyan didn't love him now, he believed that sooner or later Xiao Wanyan would be covered by him.
Qi Jiuyue looked at Chu Huairan's eyes staring at Xiao Wanyan and felt a little uncomfortable, and said, "Sister-in-law, I want to visit the lake tomorrow, I want to invite you to take a look, what do you think?" ”
"She doesn't have time." Chu Huairan didn't want to refuse for her.
Xiao Wanyan glanced at him: "I'm not like Xiangye, I'm too busy to get away, I'm a big idler now, I can't wait to go out for a walk." ”
Qi Jiuyue deliberately ignored Chu Huairan's increasingly darkened face: "That sister-in-law, I will come to pick you up early tomorrow morning, so I will leave first." ”
Until Qi Jiuyue left, Chu Huairan's face did not recover, and he stared at Xiao Wanyan and couldn't take his eyes off: "You are deliberately angry, I don't have to look for Qi Jiuyue, he has no good intentions." ”
Xiao Wanyan laughed: "Shouldn't Xiangye think about himself first when talking about others?" If you say that others are uneasy and kind, what kind of heart do you have for yourself? ”
She turned around and went into the back room and sat on the edge of the bed: "Xiangye, I'm tired, I'm going to sleep, if it's okay, you better go out." ”
Chu Huairan was a little angry: "You have to talk to me like this? ”
"Xiangye's words are really funny, and I need to greet me with a smile when my family is about to be ruined, isn't it too ironic? I'm not heartless, my family has suffered a tragic accident and I have to do something that hasn't happened, and now I think I'm good enough to save face for you in front of outsiders, but Xiangye is not satisfied, do you want me to grovel and serve you flatteringly night and night? I can't do that anyway, but the princess should be very happy. ”
Chu Huairan's face turned pale.
Xiao Wanyan lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and completely regarded Chu Huairan as air, without a sound.
Chu Huairan pursed his lips tightly, and he couldn't say a word of comfort, he hesitated in place, and left a sentence before leaving: "Then you rest first, and I'll come to see you later." ”
He walked out of the house, Han Yi was on call outside the door, he glanced at it worriedly, Chu Huairan said about the wound in his hand: "Xiangye, go down and ask a Lang Zhong to come and show you?" ”
Chu Huairan waved his hand: "No, the princess went back to the wing?" ”
Han Yi nodded and said, "I heard that the princess was a little angry, and she lost her temper when she went back to the room, and smashed all the porcelain vases in the room. ”
Chu Huairan didn't care, even if Qi Xiaoran demolished the Prime Minister's Mansion, he didn't care, after all, the emperor must have known his sister's every move in the mansion, he walked towards the outside of the mansion, a carriage was parked at the door, he got into the carriage, and instructed Han Yi: "Let people list the princess's food, clothing, and destroyed things, and wait for an opportunity to present it to the emperor." ”
"Yes." Han Yi trembled the corners of his mouth, his family Xiangye has always refused to suffer, this time he even dared to ask the emperor for money, and sure enough, he has a future with Xiangye.
Chu Huairan leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, and instructed the coachman, "Go to the prison." ”
A pair of eyes were staring closely at Chu Huairan's every move behind the stone lion at the corner, and after the carriage left, Qi Jiuchen walked out slowly, and the folding fan that never left his hand shone out a cold light, and Xuanyin followed closely behind her, and climbed over the wall and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion together.
As everyone knows, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and after Qi Jiuchen left, a man in black came out and watched Qi Jiuchen disappear after entering the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In the huge courtyard, Xiao Wanyan was lying on the bed, holding the letter that Xiao Wanqing wrote when she left: "Be careful of Xu Changli." ”
The letter was not placed on the table but under the pillow, and Xiao Wanqing has always been timid and cowardly, since she has never walked around the palace, how did she know Xu Changli?
Many questions that she didn't understand swirled in Xiao Wanyan's mind, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, she immediately hid the letter paper under the pillow, tidied up her clothes, sat up, and asked, "Who?" ”
Qi Jiuchen's voice sounded outside the door: "Wanyan, it's me, have you rested?" ”
Why is Qi Jiuchen here? Xiao Wanyan frowned, but got up and opened the door, seeing that there were only Qi Jiuchen and Yuyan, she couldn't help but be a little vigilant in her heart, this Qi Jiuchen came to kill her three times and five times, how could it be easy to deal with?
Xiao Wanyan bowed slightly and saluted him: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Yi." ”
Qi Jiuchen immediately helped her hand: "Wanyan, it's not that it's good, you don't have to salute when you see me in private." ”
This is also a person with a plan, he actually took Xiao Wanyan's hand, this is in the Great Zhou Dynasty, wouldn't it be said that the red apricot is out of the wall, but she is a person from the Great Liang, what kind of woman's virtue, it will not work for her if the door is not out of the second door.
Xiao Wanyan smiled, pasted his delicate skin by the way, and rubbed a handful of oil: "Why does Your Highness have time to come and see me?" ”
Yuyan's sharp eyes looked at Xiao Wanyan's hand, eager to use his gaze to dismantle people's eight pieces, Xiao Wanyan likes this hateful gaze, the stronger this gaze, the more it shows that Yuyan cares.
Xiao Wanyan came to Qi Jiuchen's side and deliberately squeezed the rain and smoke away: "Your Highness, I have been very depressed in the mansion these days, can you take me out for a walk?" ”
Qi Jiuchen felt that the timing was good, Xiao Wanyan actually took the initiative to ask, how could he not agree: "Since Wanyan wants to go out, this king can't shirk it." ”
Xiao Wanyan was overjoyed: "Then let's go." ”
Qi Jiuchen gestured to Yuyan to glance, and Yuyan immediately understood and went to explore the way. They didn't go out of the gate, but came out over the wall, Xiao Wanyan knew the deep meaning, so she didn't ask much,
Walking on the street, the three of them each had a ghost, Qi Jiuchen was thinking about how to kill Xiao Wanyan unknowingly to blame the prime minister, and Xiao Wanyan was thinking about how to get Qu Xiaoran to her side and make her team stronger, while Yuyan wanted Xiao Wanyan to die in pain.
Xiao Wanyan's eyes rolled slightly, she saw a moving shop in front of her, and immediately walked over quickly, and an old man with a white beard came out of it, she stepped forward and asked, "Old man, what's wrong with this shop?" ”
The old man squinted his eyes, saw the person in front of him clearly, and sighed: "The world is in a recession, and the store can't be opened, so I have to sell it for some money and go back to my hometown to farm." ”
Xiao Wanyan pondered for a while and then said, "Old man, I see that this shop is related to me, why don't you sell it to me?" ”
The old man hesitated and looked at her again, and the clothes he was wearing were also like the wife of a rich family, and he pondered: "Madam, although my shop is going to be sold, the location is the best, and the price is not cheap." ”
Xiao Wanyan regarded Qi Jiuchen as a moving money bag, and looked generous: "Old man, just say, if I don't bring enough money, I'll immediately ask someone to get it for you......"
"Hey, wait." Before Xiao Wanyan could finish speaking, a fat man walked slowly, followed by a few small guys, looking rampant and domineering, and glanced at Xiao Wanyan and the three of them disdainfully: "I have booked this shop a long time ago, and he won't sell anyone?" ”
I saw that the eldest man had a bitter face, and when he came to the man, he begged: "Uncle Zhao, you can do it, I have this shop left, and I have to sell it for money to go home for the elderly." ”
The man snorted and pushed the old man directly to the ground: "What does it matter to me to support the elderly, if you want to blame your uncompetitive son, you owe me money, and I can't pay it back for a long time, so I can only use the shop to pay off the debt." ”
"But the money my son owes you has already been paid." The old man pleaded again with a sad face.
The man's face was a little impatient and said: "The principal has been repaid, what about the interest, I borrowed it for three months for nothing, shouldn't I give some interest?" ”
Xiao Wanyan picked up the old man and looked at the man angrily: "Why are you like this, don't you know how to respect the elderly?" Can you accumulate some virtue? ”
The man glanced at Xiao Wanyan, there was already coveting in his eyes, he touched his chin, and said with a smile: "The little beauty looks quite marked, don't follow this little white face, follow my brother to eat and drink spicy, if you follow me this debt will be paid, how about it?" ”
This time, Qi Jiuchen did not stand idly by, but the woman who followed him lost face so much on the street, and his face was dull.
Qi Jiuchen raised his leg and kicked the man to the ground: "What a big guts, you should chop up such miscellaneous pieces and feed them to the dogs." ”
The man screamed in pain, and he was helped up by the brother behind him, with an angry face: "What are you still doing in a daze, beat me, beat me to death." ”
Several people who followed behind him rushed up, how could the kung fu of these three-legged cats be able to compete with the well-trained killer of Yuyan, Yuyan's movements were fast and sharp, and within a moment, they were all beaten and fell to the ground, and their faces were painful.
Xiao Wanyan helped the old man to watch the play on the side, did she give Qi Jiuchen an ambiguous look: "It's good, it's too powerful." ”
As soon as the man saw that all his brothers had been knocked down, he didn't care about face, so he turned around and ran, but he was caught by Yuyan, grabbed his shoulder, raised his leg and kicked him to his knee, and knelt directly on the ground.
The man was so frightened that his legs trembled, and an unknown liquid splashed on the ground, Xiao Wanyan laughed when she saw it, and she walked to the man's side triumphantly: "You are so powerful, you still want me to follow you, your ambition is not small." ”
The man kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "It's because I have no eyes, and the dog's eyes look down on people, and I offended a few people, spare me, I don't dare anymore." ”
Xiao Wanyan hooked the corners of her mouth and couldn't help laughing: "What about the interest owed to you?" ”
The man trembled and said, "No need to pay it back......"
"Do we look like people who owe money and don't pay it back?" Xiao Wanyan immediately interrupted his words, so that the man didn't understand the meaning of his words: "Then what do you mean?"
Xiao Wanyan took out three copper plates from his waist bag and threw them in front of him: "One copper plate a month, don't lose it." ”
The man was stunned, gritted his teeth, and forced a smile on his face: "No loss, no loss." ”
