Chapter 23 Meritorious Service for Guilt

It is rude to reject people frequently.

Xu Nanfeng couldn't resist Yue Lingxiao's warm hospitality, and accepted the other party's kindness after refusing to no avail.

"Miss Xu, you don't have to be so polite, just pick whatever you like, and take it as a meeting gift to make up for the last time!" Yue Lingxiao said and asked Xu Nanfeng to walk towards the inner room of the Golden and Silver Pavilion.

"In that case, Nanfeng is welcome!" Xu Nanfeng said with a smile.

As soon as a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper saw Yue Lingxiao and the others coming in, he hurriedly ran towards Yue Lingxiao from the counter respectfully. He smiled and said, "Boss! Why did you come here in person? Just send someone to inform me of something! ”

Yue Lingxiao said: "Shopkeeper Lin! Today I have a friend who comes over, you can bring all the best jewelry in the store! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Wait! Saying that, the shopkeeper Lin said a few words to the shopkeeper next to him, and saw the shopkeeper trotting all the way upstairs, and after a while, he walked over with a long plate.

"Boss! These are all new items that have recently come in! Shopkeeper Lin hurriedly took the plate from the small second-hand hand, lifted the red cloth covering it, and some glittering jewelry appeared in front of Xu Nanfeng and others.

It was the first time Xiao Fei saw such gorgeous jewelry, so she hurriedly pulled Xu Nanfeng's sleeve and whispered, "Miss? Are these just for you to pick? ”

This person is too generous, isn't he? Wouldn't such a greeting gift be too extravagant?

Xu Nanfeng also thought about this, she thought that the other party was just polite, but she never thought that she was so generous, she deserved to be the richest man in the capital! Xu Nanfeng was about to answer Xiao Fei's question, but Yue Lingxiao on the side seemed to hear Xiao Fei's words and chuckled softly.

"Of course! As I said below, Miss Xu picks these things, and she can pick whatever she likes! "According to what he knows about Gu Xizhou's guy, it will only be a matter of time before this Xu Nanfeng becomes Gu Xizhou! It's normal to give a gift to a friend's wife!

Xu Nanfeng always felt that Yue Lingxiao always looked at her strangely, but it couldn't be said to be strange? But the other party actually said so, Xu Nanfeng didn't twist, and happily took a step forward and looked carefully at the jewelry on the plate.

There are a lot of jewelry on this plate, Xu Nanfeng is a little dazzled, she has never been very attentive to these, but now that she sees it, she can only roughly guess what it is for.

As if seeing Xu Nanfeng's confusion, Shopkeeper Lin took a step forward and said, "Let me introduce these jewelry to the girl!" ”

Xu Nanfeng flicked his mouth at the shopkeeper and said, "Then it's troublesome for the shopkeeper!" ”

Lin Zhangjiao said: "This is the purple jade hibiscus ear bell, this is the golden silk eight treasures beaded bun, this is the Chaoyang five phoenix hanging bead hairpin......" Lin shopkeeper introduced these jewelry to Xu Nanfeng very seriously. After all, he is the shopkeeper of the Golden and Silver Pavilion, and introducing jewelry to the guests is a piece of cake for the shopkeeper Lin.

Each of these pieces of jewelry is very good-looking, but for Xu Nanfeng, these are too fancy, she grew up in the nunnery since she was a child, and she has long adapted to the elegant and simple things.

Yue Linxiao saw that the shopkeeper Lin had already introduced these jewelry to Xu Nanfeng one by one, Xu Nanfeng still looked entangled and didn't say anything, so he walked to Xu Nanfeng's side and said, "What?" Aren't these what Miss Xu likes? ”

If this were to be replaced by other women, it is estimated that they will be entangled for a long time, but they are entangled in what they should choose, and Xu Nanfeng seems to not want to choose anything, and Yue Lingxiao is a little curious about this Xu Nanfeng!

"Well, of course not! These are all very good-looking! I love them all! Yes! I'll pick this one! Saying that, Xu Nanfeng hurriedly picked up a relatively simple hairpin.

"Miss Xu likes this white jade sideburns hairpin?"

"Uh-huh! Thank you Boss Yue for the gift! ”

"As I said, Miss Xu doesn't have to be so polite! I hope Miss really likes this hairpin, and it will not be in vain in the next piece of mind! ”

"Hahaha! Of course I do! Xiaofei, help me put it on! In order to show that he liked this hairpin very much, Xu Nanfeng hurriedly asked Xiaofei to help him put this hairpin on.

After Xiaofei helped her put on the hairpin, Xu Nanfeng saluted Yue Lingxiao, "Nanfeng has already accepted Boss Yue's gift, I wonder if Boss Yue is willing to accompany me to the Penglai Pavilion in front of me, so that Nanfeng can invite you back?" Xu Nanfeng felt that the other party gave him such a valuable gift, and he should also treat the other party well!

Yue Lingxiao didn't expect Xu Nanfeng to be so unwilling to owe favors, so he couldn't help laughing, "That's good!" Miss Xu doesn't have to be called like this Boss Yue all the time, it's weird, when you are older and you, you can just call me Brother Yue! ”

"That's good! From then on, I'll call you Brother Yue! Hearing Yue Lingxiao say this, Xu Nanfeng didn't twist, and replied very happily. I even call you Brother Yue, so Brother Yue doesn't need to be called by Miss Xu, just call me Nanfeng! ”

"Good!" Yue Lingxiao likes Xu Nanfeng's temperament, he is not twisted and pinched, he is not shy when he says a few words like other ladies in the boudoir, nor is he as rude and willful as the lord of Xiangyun, but he is very good!

After coming out of the Golden and Silver Pavilion, Xu Nanfeng asked Yue Lingxiao to walk towards the Penglai Pavilion not far ahead.

"Have you heard? The Qilin Village bandits in the west have all been escorted to the capital today! ”

"What? Deserve! Be bold! I even dared to grab the disaster relief silver! Eighty percent is dead! ”

"Not really! I heard that Lord Wang and Lord Gu personally went out to fight, can they not be caught? ”

"What? Master Gu has all been dispatched? ”

"Yes! It is estimated that Your Majesty was angered this time! Walk! Check it out! What do they think they're going to have to do now? ”

"Good! Let's go! ”

Saying that, the two hurriedly pulled and ran to the side, and after a while, Xu Nanfeng saw that there was a very large team heading towards the palace.

"Miss! Did you hear that? Have all the bandits in this Qilin Village been caught? Xiaofei pulled Xu Nanfeng's sleeve very excitedly and said, is this really good news for her? This bandit is truly hateful! I deserved to be caught!

"Hmm!" Xu Nanfeng was also very excited, she was frightened last time, this bandit was caught, and she didn't have to worry about the path to Xiyu in the future! But that's great!

"Miss! Let's join in the fun! Xiaofei excitedly proposed, she wanted to see it so much!

"This ......" Xu Nanfeng also wanted to take a look, but she still wanted to invite Brother Yue to dinner, and it didn't seem very good to suddenly run to join in the fun, so she couldn't help but hesitate a little and looked at Yue Lingxiao.

"Now, let's go to dinner! I'm so hungry! "Joke, if you let Xu Nanfeng join in the fun, what will you do when you see Gu Xizhou? Without Gu Xizhou's permission, he couldn't just expose his brother's identity, how could he wait for the other party's own consent and let him tell Xu Nanfeng in person!

"Alright then!" Xu Nanfeng was helpless, so he had to take the other party to Penglai Pavilion first.

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Zhao Jingyan sat on the dragon chair very happily, he learned early in the morning that Gu Xizhou and others had taken down all the thieves in this Qilin Village, and there were no casualties, this is really good news!

"Gu Xizhou! King pleats! You have a great credit for catching the thieves of Qilin Village this time! Go ahead! What do you want? Zhao Jingyan leaned back on the dragon chair happily and asked the two people below.

"Your Majesty!" Wang Tuo took a step forward and said, "It is the duty of the lower officials to share the worries and solve the problems for Your Majesty, if Your Majesty really wants to reward the minister, then the minister implores Your Majesty to spare Qian Sen, this matter Lord Qian is also a victim!" ”

Wang Sen has always had a very good relationship with this Qian Sen, and Zhao Jingyan was not surprised that Wang Pleat made such a request, but this Qian Sen ......, and he looked at Gu Xizhou below.

Gu Xizhou naturally knew Zhao Jingyan's thoughts, and couldn't help but nod at him.

Seeing this, Zhao Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "Okay! In that case, I will spare this Qian Sen! ”

When Wang Tuo heard this, he was quickly overjoyed, and knelt down to thank him.

"What about you? What do you want? Zhao Jingyan looked at Gu Xizhou.

Gu Xizhou stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty! I hope that His Majesty can give this Chen Bao a chance! Let him atone for his sins! He had promised Chen Bao to save their lives, and now was the time for him to make a promise!

"This?" Zhao Jingyan was very surprised, he didn't think that Gu Xizhou would make such a request? He heard him right, right?

"Your Majesty! This is absolutely unacceptable! ”

Before Zhao Jingyan could say anything, Gu Xiang and Gu Jinzhi hurriedly stepped forward to retort.

Gu Xizhou said: "Why not? Although it is wrong for Chen Bao to do these things, it is understandable, and we should ......"

Before Gu Xizhou finished speaking, he was refuted by Gu Jinzhi, "Then according to Gu Taifu's meaning, as long as there are extenuating circumstances, you can betray the imperial court and hijack the official bank?" ”

"Gu Xiang likes to generalize so much, to generalize? This Chen Bao is a rare talent, and at this time, the border is unstable, so it is just right to send Chen Bao to atone for his sins! ”

"Then you can be forgiven as long as you have the ability? Where then do you leave the people of the remnant of the West? ”

Zhao Jingyan looked helplessly at the two people in front of him, why did the father and son quarrel in the court every time? He helplessly held his forehead, "So what?" That's all for today! Retreat! ”

Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to stop fighting.

The ministers also breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed to His Majesty and retreated.

"You are so dignified, how can you intercede for this Chen Leopard?" Zhao Jingyan looked curiously at Gu Xizhou, who was sulking on the side.

"This Chen Leopard is not bad, there are really many things that forced him to be like this, so he made this big mistake......" Gu Xizhou told Zhao Jingyan in detail about the causes and consequences of the matter.

"Hey!" Zhao Jingyan also shook his head after hearing this, he didn't expect this Chen Leopard to be so naΓ―ve!

Gu Xizhou said: "So I think Chen Bao has this strength, and the Qilin Army shouldn't be buried like this!" No man is born wise or learned? I think the Kirin Army should be given a chance! A chance to atone for their sins! ”

Zhao Jingyan pondered for a while and said: "You are not wrong, now that this barbarian is constantly violating our border with Yuanyuan, it is also the time when there is a shortage of people, I should give this Qilin army a chance!" ”

Gu Xizhou couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Zhao Jingyan's words, "Jingyan! You promised? Saying that, he pounced on Zhao Jingyan excitedly, "It's worthy of being a good brother!" I knew you were going to be on my side! ”

Zhao Jingyan pushed Gu Xizhou away in disgust, "I agreed!" But your father Gu Xiang didn't agree! This Chen Leopard still has to stay in this prison for a long time! ”

Hearing Zhao Jingyan's words, Gu Xizhou couldn't help but be a little frustrated, yes! His father was not easy to compromise with, "Hey! Why do you think my dad likes to come against me every time? ”

Gu Xizhou is about to be driven crazy by his father! It's usually okay at home, but as soon as I get to the court, I like to him! It's not that he didn't ask like his mother, what did his mother say at that time? My mother laughed at the time and said how funny it was!
