Ruan Tingshi returned to the study in a bit of a daze, and he didn't even notice that someone came in with him, he rubbed his forehead vigorously with one hand, but he couldn't get rid of the panic and worry that was coiling in his mind.

"Master, are you alright?" Another person in the room asked.

Ruan Tingshi was excited, and suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that his wife was standing beside him, with a look of concern.

He couldn't help but think of what Cui Jing had said to him, and remembered the love between husband and wife over the years, and he was in a trance for a while.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Ruan asked with concern, "Master, what's wrong with you?" Did Mr. Luo upset you? The people in their coffin shop are the most unlucky, can they meet without meeting? I...... I'll go get you some peace charms, it should be better to have them with you. ”

"No," Ruan Tingshi grabbed his wife's hand and didn't let her leave his side, "I'm fine." ”

"Then what are you ......," Madame Ruan was puzzled.

Ruan Tingshi said: "Mr. Luo...... His family is not simple, and in the past two days, the relatives of the Luo family have come to him, and by the way, they have brought a piece of news. ”

"What?" Mrs. Ruan asked a little nervously.

Ruan Tingshi looked at her deeply, "The eldest princess of Liyang has come to Xiazhou to relax." Tell me, the eldest princess suddenly came to our Xiazhou, but I didn't prepare at all, can I not be in a hurry? In case the eldest princess sees that there is something bad in our Xiazhou, and goes back to tell the emperor, then what can I do......"

Mrs. Ruan said: "It's just that the eldest princess is here?" ”

"Yes......" Ruan Tingshi's heart suddenly crumbled when he heard her ask.

Madame Ruan comforted: "The words of the eldest princess...... It doesn't matter, how could she, a woman, meddle in the affairs of officials...... Moreover, we've only been in Xiazhou for a long time, and if there's anything going on, we can't blame it. ”

Ruan Tingshi shook his head and sighed, "This is not good...... I look at it in the past few days, I have to quickly take a look around the city, and if there is a problem, I will deal with it immediately, so that the eldest princess can't find out. Alas, so, thanks to Mr. Luo's words, otherwise, I would still be in the dark. ”

Mrs. Ruan narrowed her eyes and asked, "Mr. Luo has never been to the Yamen, why did he suddenly come to tell you this?" ”

Ruan Tingshi said: "It's also kind." And gave me this favor, and it will be better to live in Xiazhou in the future, isn't it? ”

"Hehe," Madame Ruan sneered, "no matter how bookish he is, but after all, he is a businessman, shrewd." ”

Ruan Tingshi coughed lightly and said, "I'm going to be busy, you are at home, don't worry about me." ”

"I see." Madame Ruan patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Don't worry too much, it'll be fine." ”

Ruan Tingshi nodded, "I'm fine, you can go." ”

"Okay." Mrs. Ruan glanced at Ruan Tingshi, as if she suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Who is the young man who came with Mr. Luo?" ”

"His guy." Ruan Tingshi said casually.

"Uh-oh." Madame Ruan nodded and went out.

Ruan Tingshi listened to the footsteps, glanced up, and shook his head helplessly and sighed.

When Luo Banghao came out of the state yamen, he was stopped, and when Cui Jingshi saw the man's face, he lowered his head and took a few steps back, and left quietly.

When the man didn't notice Cui Jing, he just said to Luo Banghao: "Mr. Luo, the eldest princess is invited." ”

"I've already said that I'm not going." Luo Banghao said coldly.

The man said, "The eldest princess has commanded, no matter what method I use, just take you there." ”

Luo Banghao's face became even colder, "In this way, our family will have a banquet for the eldest princess in the best restaurant in the city, and invite the eldest princess to appreciate the light." ”

The man chuckled, "Mr. Luo, you should understand, the eldest princess doesn't want to see irrelevant people. ”

Luo Banghao said: "In the eyes of the eldest princess, people who have nothing to do with her are people who are closely related to my life, and I beg you to bring this sentence to the eldest princess, see what she has to say, and then come to me." ”

A hint of murder flashed in the man's eyes, "Mr. Luo, then don't blame me for being rude." ”

Luo Banghao said: "I guess the eldest princess doesn't want to see me hurt, right?" As he spoke, he leaned over and picked up a piece of broken tile next to him, the sharp edge approaching his neck, "Want to try it?" ”

The man flinched, "Mr. Luo, we'll see you again." ”

Luo Banghao didn't pay attention to it at all, and turned his head to leave.

On the side of the eldest princess, he will go to see it, but now is not the time.

He walked forward unhurriedly, and soon met Cui Jing at the mouth of an alley, wearing a hat on his head, looking very cautious.

After the two converged, they walked towards Xu's house.

"I'm sorry, I can't stop the people my aunt sent." Cui Jingshi said slightly apologetically.

Luo Banghao shook his head, "It's okay, I'll fix it." ”

Cui Jingshi looked at a peaceful and peaceful street market, this is where Luo Xuyan was born and raised, she likes it here, and she doesn't want the sword and sword shadow and bloody lives here to be contaminated with half a point.

He will definitely not disappoint Luo Xuyan.

Back at Xu's house, Cui Jing went to look for Luo Xuyan, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard her question-

"How's it going?"

"I've already talked to Ruan Tingshi." Cui Jing said, sitting leisurely opposite Luo Xuyan, looking at her with wide eyes.

Luo Xuyan felt as if she was being stared at by a poor big-eyed puppy, a little uncomfortable, and glared at him, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Cui Jingshi sighed: "So, there is no expression? ”

"You're saving your own life, aren't you?" Luo Xuyan asked rhetorically.

Cui Jing smiled.

Suddenly, Luo Xuyan raised her hand, picked up the teapot, poured a full cup of tea, and then pushed it in front of Cui Jingshi, "Cui Gongzi, hard work." ”

Cui Jingshi's wry smile instantly turned into a gentle smile, holding the teacup in both hands, and nodding to Luo Xuyan, "It's not hard for you." ”

After speaking, he drank the tea in the cup in one go.

"By the way, I went to see Ruan Tingshi this time, and I found that Mrs. Ruan was not quite right." He said again.

Luo Xuyan asked, "What?" ”

Cui Jingshi told her about Mrs. Ruan's abnormality.

Luo Xuyan recalled the first time she saw Mrs. Ruan, and she felt strange when she thought about it like this.

Cui Jingshi saw her thoughtful and asked, "What did you think of?" ”

"When I first met Madame Ruan...... "Luo Xuyan told Cui Jing about the situation at that time, "...... However, it's not a strange thing to think that our family is unlucky, maybe I've listened to your words and become a little sensitive. ”

"No matter what, Ruan Tingshi will keep an eye on his wife." Cui Jingshi said: "There can't be any mistakes on this road, he is a person who understands." ”

"I hope so." Luo Xuyan nodded.
