Shi Chen's actions caused an uproar among the onlookers, although they had long heard that the King of Jinglian had recently accepted a face, but this was the first time most people had seen Shi Chen himself.

In the empire, it was common for wealthy merchants and nobles to keep thin horses and noodles in captivity, but both of them were dog meat that could not be served on the table, whether it was cruel and unjustified abuse in private, or thousands of favors in one, and no one would chew their tongues much behind closed doors in their own homes.

But if he dared to openly bring his face out of the door, he even beat people in the imperial capital in broad daylight, and it was the dogleg of the prince who beat him, which really broke the eyeballs of many people.

originally thought that the princess would come forward to stop and punish her, but what I saw was the 'spoiled' smile of Her Royal Highness the princess.

The princess's disguised statement is enough to explain a lot of problems, at least enough to change Zhu Fugui's judgment of the current situation, at least the princess's statement can become a reason for him to deal with His Royal Highness, and immediately sweating profusely should say: "Thanks to His Highness's attention, the grass people are willing to sacrifice this thin horse." ”

"No, just follow the rules." Su Yayan waved his hand indifferently, and said to the guard commander beside him, "Give him ten times the market price." ”

"Whoa!"

Hearing that the sweat on Zhu Fugui's forehead was like pulp, he secretly complained in his heart, which was clearly not to accept his love! Is Her Royal Highness's money so easy to take? It's a hot potato, and once he takes this money, how will he explain to the prince at that time?

Su Yayan didn't bother to pay attention to the thoughts of a small businessman, and walked directly towards Shi Chen.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Fugui didn't dare to pursue it any further, accepted the money ticket paid by the guard, kowtowed three times to the back of the princess, and left in the car with a bunch of dogs.

The most important thing to do at this moment is to ask Lord Shizi for the crime as soon as possible, and tell him the truth about the situation, as for how Lord Shizi will deal with it. That's not his responsibility as a small businessman.

At this moment, Shi Chen was holding the frightened little thin horse, trying his best to soothe the other party's young heart with a gentle voice.

I have to say that Shi Chen's experience in taking care of Xiao Qianlin and the harmless face of humans and animals have played a very key role at this moment, under his comfort, the girl's pale face that was originally pale due to excessive fright has regained a little ruddy, and she knows everything about Shi Chen's problems, as if she has found the best person to confide in.

"What's your name?" Shi Chen asked.

"Qin Xiangwu." The girl's eyes flashed wide, and she seemed to be a little shy about the strange man asking her name, and she lowered her head like a mosquito and replied, "Daddy and Auntie call me Xiao Wu." ”

Shi Chen didn't know what to do when he first came to the empire, in the general perception of the empire. The vast majority of women are subordinate property of men, and even many low-level small families do not have the right to a name at all, and there are only two situations when asking for a name.

Although Qin Xiangwu was young, she also knew this, and although she was flustered, after being rescued by Shi Chen, she had been listening to the conversation between the beautiful sister and the pig-headed merchant with pointed ears.

I'm going to be sold out after all. But the fate of thin horses is often very different due to the different owners.

A child's intuition is often the most sensitive and the most accurate, and she can feel the warm care from this uncle, and the other person's eyes. There is no other adult who wants to eat people like a beast.

This uncle is a good man, and perhaps being sold to him as a skinny horse is also a kind of creation. Xiao Wu thought so in her heart.

"Good name." Shi Chen also secretly praised, and at the same time was a little puzzled. This name is very atmospheric, full of juanxiu beauty, and it looks like the name of the daughter of a big family. How could it be mixed to the point of being sold to a skinny horse merchant.

The imperial people have always practiced a monopoly in education, and ordinary small families do not have this level to take out this kind of name, even if Dong Shi Xiaoxi, it is just a smile and generosity.

And although the girl in her arms is wearing a shabby little flower jacket that can no longer be earthy, she has a fair complexion, bright eyes and bright teeth, even if she stays in the crowd, it will make people's eyes shine, and she will be the first to discover her existence.

But I've already helped him solve the crisis, and I hope she can grow up happily.

Thinking like this, Shi Chen squatted down, put Xiao Wu in his arms on the ground, and patted her head with a smile, "That bad guy has been driven away by my uncle, go find my mother." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Wu's originally ruddy face turned pale in an instant, as if after being pushed out of a warm embrace, her young body trembled slightly in the cold wind, and the pair of excessive eyes that became bigger because of her emaciated face were instantly filled with tears.

But she didn't make much effort, Bei Yan bit her bloodless lip, thanked Shi Chen solemnly, turned around gloomily, and walked quickly towards the noodle restaurant.

She first threw herself into the arms of the haggard young woman and cried for a while, and then hurried to the big yellow dog, who was still on the stone steps and could not get up because of his broken legs, and hugged the dying big yellow dog and wept silently.

Shi Chen sighed in his heart, but he didn't want to interfere too much in the trajectory of other people's lives, just as he was about to turn over and leave, there was a mocking voice from Su Yayan in his ears, "You are so naïve, do you think this is helping them?" ”

"How?" Shi Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had some bad premonitions.

"What you do in the Federation won't work in the Empire." Su Yayan also seemed to feel that some parts of the empire were too cruel, and the mockery in her tone was even stronger, "In the empire, women can only be vassals to men or masters in order to get a place of peace, the mother and daughter of the man have died on the battlefield, and the noodle shop owner who lives now is obviously a scumbag who likes to gamble and is lazy, since he can sell it for the first time, he will sell it for the second time due to other circumstances in the future." Besides, the person behind the skinny horse merchant this time is not simple, so let them stay here, I'm afraid it won't be tomorrow, they still can't escape the established fate. ”

Shi Chen was silent for a moment, although he had long thought that the environment of the empire was cruel enough for the bottom of society, he did not expect that it would be so dark.

And at this moment, Xiao Wu's cry suddenly came from behind her, which immediately made Shi Chen turn her head, and then let her see the scene of anger.

The middle-aged man didn't care when he saw Shi Chen and the others send the thin horse merchant away, and thought it was just a kind of noble game, but after palpitations, he felt that he was lucky. patted the dust on his body, picked up the money on the ground with a smile on his face and counted it, as if most of the injuries on his body had been healed by hitting the big luck, and turned around to slaughter the dying big yellow dog to make up for himself.

The big yellow dog had just sacrificed himself to save his master, where could Xiao Wu watch it being slaughtered, and immediately argued, and the young woman also tried to go up to persuade a few words, but was slapped to the ground, and only wept silently.

Seeing the middle-aged man holding Xiao Wu, who couldn't stop crying and looking desperate, with one arm in one hand, and the dying big yellow dog in the other. While cursing, he dragged the weeping woman on the ground into the messy noodle restaurant, and after entering, he pulled down the tin door of the store, covering the eyes of all kinds behind him.

Shi Chen finally spoke: "Then can you think of a thoughtful solution?" ”

Seeing that the fish had been hooked, the corners of Su Yayan's mouth showed a smile of successful conspiracy, "There is still a lack of a clever maid in Jinglian Palace, I think she is good." ”

She is not afraid that Shi Chen will make excessive demands, she is afraid that Shi Chen has no desires and no desires, she is not the kind of big-chested idiot, so naturally she will not think that Shi Chen came to the empire thousands of miles away to see her. Shi Chen must have an unknown purpose, and even this purpose completely contradicts her position, so she has never dared to ask, because once something pierces the layer of window paper. It will be difficult to make up for it again, and it is very likely that Shi Chen will leave her behind and never return.

But as long as Shi Chen has something to care about, then he can weave these into a cotton net and become a fetter that entangles him. Tie him firmly to your side. After he plans to leave in the future, these will become a hindrance to his steps.

She is convinced that time can erase everything. Even if it is his nationality, she once learned from a casual conversation with Suye Cangna that Shi Chen was a lonely orphan who had a difficult life in his childhood, and he was once a wanted criminal in the Federation.

Later, although he made great contributions to Suyue Star after joining the army, he was praised by the Federation as a combat hero for propaganda purposes, but because of his identity, he did not get much substantial benefit, and even suffered from the exclusion of the upper echelons because of his intimate relationship with the second princess of the Federation, Isha.

These are the best news for her at this moment, orphans, orphans at an early age, and they have been ostracized when they become famous, so the concept of family and country must not be too profound.

Since ancient times, the gentle township of the capital is a hero's mound, Su Yayan thinks that she is gentle enough, and she also has all the capital that a woman should have, as the status of the princess, the wealth of Jinglian's mansion, the peerless appearance of the name of the first beauty in the imperial capital, and the proud figure that fascinates thousands of men, but just these, she has no confidence to tie Shi Chen's heart with her body in a short time.

Because she knew that although Shi Chen had done a lot of things that made him angry, he was not a man who gave up all his principles because of his beauty, he valued more feelings and responsibility, and these two points were important factors that drove him to behave in others.

So she starts with these two points.

She could already see that Shi Chen looked at the thin horse named Qin Xiangwu differently for some reason, but it was enough for her to be able to detect this, so she bought this thin horse and gave it to him, anyway, it was all raised in her own mansion, she was powerless and powerless, and she was delicate and simple, and she didn't pose any threat to her status, and at the same time, she could cultivate a period of emotion and responsibility that tied Shi Chen, so why not.

And what she has to do now is to give Shi Chen a warm home and turn the empire into his country!

For all this, Shi Chen was still at a loss because of the boiling anger at the moment, and was silent for a moment, "I owe you a favor." ”

Hearing this, Su Yayan pulled the hair that fell from her ears, the smile on her pretty face became brighter and more charming, and her eyes flowed, and she asked curiously, "Oh?" What are you going to do? ”

"Since being a good person in the empire can only do bad things, then I don't mind making a cameo appearance as a villain who does nothing evil!"

Coldly put down these words that made the princess stunned, then spurred the horse, and in the shocked and inexplicable eyes of the people around her, she crashed into the half-hidden iron roll door of the Qin Ji noodle restaurant.
