One hundred and eighty-five, distinguished guest
Zhou Yunxi did not respond to Liu Yue's request, nor did he directly refuse.
This matter is not big or small, even if Zhou Yunxi decides whether to respond or not, Qin Fengyi will not feel anything. But Zhou Yunxi felt that this matter was related to Qin Fengyi and the Hou Mansion, and it was not easy for her to decide on her own.
"Yunxi, do you think that person is the third prince?"
When Zhou Yunxi and An Yu walked downstairs to Yunxi Restaurant, An Yu suddenly opened his mouth and motioned Zhou Yunxi to look at the attic on the second floor. At this glance, I saw a man in a dark blue shirt leaning against the windowsill, holding a white porcelain wine glass in his hand, looking very comfortable.
"What is he doing here?"
That person was indeed Chu Ci, but why he came over, Zhou Yunxi couldn't figure it out. The matter of the granary and the rice shop has just begun, and Chu Ci has no reason to rush over at this time.
"I thought Miss Zhou would turn a blind eye to me."
When Zhou Yunxi went to the room where Chu Ci was, Chu Ci happened to put down the wine glass, and the time was calculated very well, almost when Zhou Yunxi appeared, he just raised his head and looked at Zhou Yunxi.
"Your Highness is coming, how dare I turn a blind eye?"
Zhou Yunxi smiled, looking very respectful to Chu Ci, but Zhou Yunxi knew that she had no respect or fear for this so-called prince at all.
"Miss Zhou is so polite?" Chu Ci raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Yunxi with some playfulness, "When the young lady told me about the granary before, she was not so deferful and well-behaved. β
"Your Highness is joking, I have always respected His Highness, and it is natural to be polite." Zhou Yunxi lowered his eyebrows, looking really deferential, "Your Highness came here today for something important?" β
Zhou Yunxi's polite appearance made Chu Ci feel bored, because of what Zhou Yunxi said about the granary before, Chu Ci was a little interested in her, plus there were some things I wanted to ask Zhou Yunxi, and I heard that a new Yunxi restaurant had opened in Beijing, so I looked for it.
But at this time, seeing Zhou Yunxi so respectful, Chu Ci felt bored, and he had no interest in asking about the things he wanted to ask, so Chu Ci at this time was also lacking in interest and seemed to be unable to raise his energy.
"It's nothing important, it's just that I heard the prime minister mention you at my father's place a few days ago, and I wanted to tell the son of the world when I was free." Chu Ci said this is true, but this kind of thing can't be done to let him go in person, "I thought that the prince would be here today, but I didn't want to see a single figure." β
"Miss Zhou, for such an important matter as the opening of Yunxi Restaurant, why is Shizi not here?" Chu Ci smiled again as he spoke, and his face was a little more ridiculous, "Didn't you go to see your little lover who was hidden?" β
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yunxi was speechless.
I thought that Chu Ci, the third prince, was a serious and serious person, but who knew that he would arrange Qin Fengyi's affairs at this time? In this way, Zhou Yunxi really didn't know what to say.
It can be seen that Zhou Yunxi did not answer, but this Chu Ci became more and more energetic.
"This prince heard that the daughter of Lord Shangshuliu of the Ministry of War is in the Yuelai Teahouse on the next street, Miss Zhou, do you think the prince will also be there?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yunxi thought about it seriously, then looked at Chu Ci and said, "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, Miss Liu is here to give me a congratulatory gift, and we have only met once." β
"Oh?"
Chu Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard Zhou Yunxi say this, but he didn't ask. However, Chu Ci's eyes made Zhou Yunxi feel a little uncomfortable.
"Miss Liu is well-informed and reasonable, and she is really a model of the ladies in the capital, so it is not surprising that she will come to give Miss Zhou a congratulatory gift." Chu Ci said slowly, "But weren't Miss Liu and Miss Zhou a little unhappy before?" "Wu Jiu Literature
"It's just a joke between women, I didn't expect it to be so big."
Zhou Yunxi smiled awkwardly as she spoke, as if she was really helpless about it. Seeing this, Chu Ci only chuckled and did not continue to ask.
Liu Yue's woman has always been gentle and generous, and she doesn't care about people, even when those women who loved Qin Fengyi flocked to Qin Fengyi in the past, and wanted to be familiar with Qin Fengyi's eyes, Liu Yue only watched from a distance and did not participate.
I would go to the Qin Mansion to find Zhou Yunxi's 'trouble' before, not to mention that Chu Ci felt surprised, presumably even Qin Fengyi felt a little stunned.
"Miss Liu doesn't have any bad intentions, you really don't need to be too vigilant." Chu Ci stared at Zhou Yunxi for a long time before he spit out such a sentence leisurely, "Miss Zhou, instead of being wary of Miss Liu, it is better to let the prince check who Miss Liu has seen." β
"They're the ones who should be watched the most."
After speaking, Chu Ci stood up slowly and made a gesture to leave.
"Your Highness came here today just to chat with me?" Seeing this, Zhou Yunxi suddenly opened his mouth and stopped Chu Ci's pace of leaving, "Is there really nothing else?" β
"What does Miss Zhou want?"
Chu Ci turned around with a smile and asked Zhou Yunxi rhetorically.
"I don't want anything to happen, it's just that if nothing happens, Your Highness won't come here." Zhou Yunxi also stood up, "After all, what His Highness told me about me being mentioned by the Prime Minister again, it is really necessary to let His Highness go on this trip in person." β
Zhou Yunxi's words made Chu Ci stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly smiled, with obvious playfulness and curiosity in his eyes.
He stared at Zhou Yunxi for a long time, and then sat back in place, and saw that Zhou Yunxi was still standing motionless, so he spoke unhurriedly, and said: "Miss Zhou is very smart, but anyone who is smart will either live to the end, or, die the earliestββ"
"I don't know which kind of Miss Zhou is?"
Chu Ci's words were a little serious, which made Zhou Yunxi frown slightly. She knew that Chu Ci's words meant something, or it could be regarded as a temptation, or even a threat.
How to answer the best, Zhou Yunxi didn't know, because she didn't know Chu Ci. But if he didn't answer, looking at Chu Ci like that, he was obviously waiting for Zhou Yunxi to speak.
"If you stand on the right team, you will naturally survive to the end." Zhou Yunxi removed the smile from the corner of his mouth, "The vision of the prince will not be wrong." β
As soon as these words came out, Chu Ci laughed.
"What if Miss Zhou has a brother who is fighting with you for the family property?" Chu Ci said casually, "One has money but no power, the other has power but no money, and you have nothing, what should you do?" β
"Suspicion is a sharp blade." Zhou Yunxi said slowly, "When I talked about the rice shop before, didn't His Highness already have it in his heart? β
"If you feel that it is too risky to only do it to one person, and that forcing the housekeeper in the house to stand in line will bring disadvantage to you, then let them be suspicious of each other."
"Of course, don't forget to make yourself miserable."
Zhou Yunxi said that the smile was bright, and it seemed that he was just saying something unimportant.
After Chu Ci listened, his expression was slightly gloomy at first, as if he was thinking about something, and when he looked at Zhou Yunxi again, his eyes were full of complexity!
