Chapter Eighty-Three: Gift-giving

Zhao Xuanyi received the old man on the front foot, and someone said on the back foot that Lin Shizi from the Marquis of Anping Mansion was here, Zhao Xuanyi felt strange, but it also made people come in.

The old man sat on Zhao Xuanyi's side, drank tea with a smile, and only said: "Eighth master, now the old minister is not right, now the grass people are rashly visiting, please don't blame the eighth master." ”

"What did you say, when my father asked you to teach me to learn all kinds of scriptures and history, I have always regarded you as a teacher, and I have always had only respect for you, so why blame." Zhao Xuanyi looked at him seriously.

When the old man saw him say this, it didn't seem to be perfunctory, and the smile on his face was more: "Originally, the grass people have already returned to their hometowns, and they shouldn't ask more about the affairs of the court, but when I came to the capital today and met the former students, they all praised the eighth prince for being the sage king of the world, and they all wanted to help the eighth prince share their worries and solve problems, but they all didn't dare to come directly, for fear of being regarded as collusion for personal gain, and you would be punished by the emperor." ”

"Oh, and that kind of thing?" Zhao Xuanyi was a little surprised on his face, the old man was an old fox in the officialdom, and when he saw him like this, he knew that the more willing he was to have so many officials to help him.

"Naturally, I also had dinner with them today, I thought that I would introduce them later, and I saw them bring them over to meet the eighth master, but I didn't want to go out of Jinghua Building, so I met the eldest prince, and the eldest prince not only snatched away the concubine of the grass people, but also wanted to detain the old minister for rebellion." The old man said.

"Who dares to buckle the old man's hat, but I heard that the emperor still remembers the old man these days." Lin Qingyu said suddenly.

The old man heard it. The more angry he was in his heart for Zhao You: "The grass people are coming here now, and they are also thinking that they can still be favored by the emperor, and they will not even be unstable when they return to their hometowns, so they dare to come to the Eighth Master's Mansion." ”

"Brother Huang is too disagreeable." Zhao Xuanyi said in a deep voice.

Seeing that the goal was achieved, the old man only sighed and stood up and arched his hand towards Zhao Xuanyi: "Eighth master, the grass people will stay soon, the eldest prince asked the grass people to leave the capital today, the grass people are not well prepared, and they only called their protΓ©gΓ©s to wait for the eighth master in Jinghua Building tomorrow, if the eighth master has time, he will also make suggestions to them in the past, so as not to offend the master in the officialdom without knowing it." The old Xiangye directly helped Zhao Xuanyi to win over a large number of people in the court, where was Zhao Xuanyi unhappy, so he directly got up and helped the old Xiangye: "Don't worry, I will pass tomorrow." ”

The old prime minister bowed his head and looked back at Lin Qingyu who was wearing half a mask: "This prince is the son of the Marquis of Anping?" ”

Lin Qingyu got up and made a move, the old man looked at him, and said with a smile: "I heard that the Marquis of Anping Mansion never asks about court affairs, but this is an infatuation for Lin Shizi, and he entered the court for a woman, breaking the rules of the Marquis of Anping's Mansion." ”

Lin Qingyu faced his sarcasm: "Entering the court is to assist Mingjun, how can the prime minister say that I broke the rules because of my children's love?" ”

Seeing that he was not messy at all, the old man had a little appreciation in his eyes: "If it's really stronger than the other, I'm old." The old man looked at Zhao Xuanyi meaningfully, and then left.

Zhao Xuanyi stood at the door of the room, his face slightly gloomy: "Why are you here at this time?" ”

"Come and see the fun." Lin Qingyu smiled and sat aside, glanced at the bearded little guy who followed him, picked a grape, and slowly peeled it before sending it to his mouth.

The eyes of the people in the room widened, Lin Shizi likes bearded men?

Lin Qingyu ignored everyone's gaze and looked at Zhao Xuanyi, who was standing coldly at the door blowing the cold wind: "I can't see that this old man is still so angry." ”

Zhao Xuanyi glanced at Lin Qingyu: "This matter will not be arranged by you." ”

The corners of Lin Qingyu's mouth hooked: "It's not me, I just happened to see it, I thought that the old man would directly grab people from the eldest prince, but I didn't expect it to be handed over, and now I let the eighth master ask for someone for him." ”

Zhao Xuanyi frowned: "It's not the best time to offend the eldest prince now, if the Yang Mansion can make a move at this time"

The palms of the small guy who was following Lin Qingyu were slightly tight, but Lin Qingyu leaned lightly on the chair, his eyes turned lightly: "Why bother the Yang family, hasn't King Xiaoyao been very idle recently." ”

"Uncle Xiaohuang? He's in the same league as the eldest prince."

"Wrong." Lin Qingyu bent his eyes and looked at Zhao Xuanyi: "King Xiaoyao is your real opponent, the eldest prince is just a cover he uses to deal with you, and it is still a not very sharp disguise, it is estimated that he wants to change it now." ”

Zhao Xuanyi frowned, he was just suspicious and never dared to confirm it, but seeing Lin Qingyu say with such certainty, could it be that he heard something in the palace.

"By the way, I'll tell you something." Lin Qingyu stood up and prepared to leave.

"What's the matter?"

"Princess Huaiyang is helping King Xiaoyao." Lin Qingyu said, seeing the shock in Zhao Xuanyi's eyes, he raised his hand to pat his shoulder, and was about to leave, Zhao Xuanyi pinched his wrist with his backhand, and his fingers rested on his pulse.

After a while, he looked at Lin Qingyu suspiciously: "It's not you?" ”

"What do you say about the Eighth Prince?" Lin Qingyu withdrew his hand.

Zhao Xuanyi's face was dark: "It's nothing, you go, don't reveal the matter of the old man to outsiders." ”

Lin Qingyu chuckled: "Don't worry, I won't say a word, it's stricter than a dead man's mouth." ”

Zhao Xuanyi's lowered hand tightened slightly: "You know that I didn't mean that." ”

Lin Qingyu smiled and saluted, turned his head and left with the little servant.

The guard stood up coldly: "Eighth Master, is it really not him who quietly assassinated the envoy of Southern Xinjiang that night?" ”

"His pulse was steady, not like he was injured." Zhao Xuanyi said coldly.

"Do you really believe in him like that, he came here today and was a little inexplicable." The cold knife is dissatisfied.

Zhao Xuanyi raised his hand: "Needless to say, if there is really a day when you think, he secretly helps others, I will kill him with my own hands." With that, he turned around and left.

Lin Qingyu got into the carriage and let out a long sigh of relief, his complexion, which was still normal and even a little red, suddenly turned pale, and he kept holding his breath to make his pulse look stable is to know that Zhao Xuanyi came back today.

The little guy on the side also pulled his beard: "You came here to let the Eighth Prince see Zhao Xuanyi's true face?" ”

Lin Qingyu chuckled: "This is not enough, you have to let the King of Freedom really expose his ambitions." After Lin Qingyu finished speaking, he looked at Chu Xi: "Do you hate King Xiaoyao?" ”

Chu Xi's eyes were cold: "You don't need to know." ”

Lin Qingyu looked at her stubborn little appearance, and her eyes narrowed: "It's not early, let's go back?" ”

Chu Xi didn't think much about it, she just thought that she was going back to find Lu Tan and them together, but she didn't expect Lin Qingyu's carriage to arrive at the gate of Chu Mansion all of a sudden.

Chu Xi was dumbfounded, but Lin Qingyu smiled and said, "You go to the gate, I'll take the path." ”

Chu Xi didn't answer him, turned around and got out of the carriage.

Green Sandalwood and Green Sprouts have been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Chu Xi coming, they hurriedly greeted him: "Miss, we have collected Lin Shizi's money for you." ”

Chu Ji raised her eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the silent gate of Chu Mansion: "There has been no one at the door?" ”

"No one, the people from the Dingguo Mansion don't seem to have left after they came." Green Sprout Road.

"Hmm." Chu Ji bowed his head, and a few people were about to go in, when they heard the sound of a carriage, and after a while, two little guys who looked like thieves jumped down from the carriage, and saw that there was no one guarding the door of the Chu Mansion, so they ran in directly.

"I know them. They are on the side of the eldest prince. Green Sandalwood whispered.

Chu Xi chuckled: "It seems that there is a good show." Lu Tan, you go to the housekeeper, let him ask who is on duty in front of the door today, who is in charge, and directly ask someone to send it, and the person who just went in, you also ask him to directly bring someone to arrest me and send it to the government office. ”

When Lu Tan heard this, he nodded excitedly: "I'll do it." With that, he took one step and ran away.

Lu Ya glanced at Chu Xi: "Miss, shall we go back to the Jin Pavilion?" ”

Chu Ji bowed, I'm afraid there are already people waiting in the Pavilion at this time.

At this time in the Yang Mansion, Yang Ying knelt in front of General Yang's eyes: "If you don't agree to Ying'er marrying the eldest prince, Ying'er won't live." ”

Yang Ci hurried back and heard her words, and couldn't help but be annoyed: "What are you making trouble!" ”

Hearing his voice, Yang Ying became more and more angry: "Do you need to take care of it, I will marry the eldest prince!" ”

Yang Ci looked at her like this, and was so angry that he stepped forward to slap her, but his hand was raised but he still didn't fight: "You know that you will cause chaos at home." ”

When Yang Ying heard this accusation, she was even more aggrieved: "I know, you all dislike me, and dislike me for having no father, no mother, and no ability!" ”

Old General Yang looked at Yang Ci with a headache: "Why did you come back in such a hurry?" ”

Yang Ci thought of this, his face was slightly better, and he hurriedly saluted: "Back to my grandfather, now my grandson went to the city and saw something interesting. Yang Ci told the eldest prince Zhao You about robbing the old minister's concubine on the street, and also said that Zhao You threatened to make the dancing girl a side concubine: "In this way, he shouldn't have the energy to fight our Yang family's idea, even if Ming'er participates in his excerpts, it will be enough for him to have a headache for a while." ”

Yang Ying was stunned when she heard this: "What do you say, the eldest prince wants to set up a dancing girl as a side concubine?" ”

"Yes." Yang Ci looked at Yang Ying dissatisfied, Yang Ying was so nonsense, if it was spread out, the eldest prince would not be able to ask for it, but the Yang family would be destroyed in Yang Ying's hands.

Yang Ying's eyes were slightly ruthless: "How could it be, how could the eldest prince suddenly fall in love with a dancing girl?" If you want to make her a side concubine, the emperor will definitely not agree! ”

"It's none of your business whether you agree or not!" General Yang said angrily: "Your daughter's family, although it is said that my Yang family's governance is not as rigid and strict as ordinary eunuchs, but you still keep the rules that your daughter's family should abide by, if the rules are broken?" Does grandfather plan to kick Ying'er out of the house like Yang Pei and cut off the relationship! ”

"Smack----!

As soon as Yang Ying finished speaking, Yang Ci was so angry that he slapped her in the face. Yang Pei is a piece of the Yang family's heart, and he never mentions it, and everyone is very sad every time he mentions it.

Yang Ying covered her face, laughed instead of crying, stood up directly from the ground, and pushed Yang Ci violently: "What qualifications do you have to beat me, my father was killed by your father, I tell you, if you don't marry me, I will marry the eldest prince!" ”

"Bastard!" Old General Yang was so angry that his face turned pale: "Come on, let me put her in the ancestral hall and think about it, without my orders, she is not allowed to step out of the ancestral hall!" ”

As soon as the words fell, someone came over to take Yang Ying down, and Yang Ying shouted with hatred: "Yang Ci, you treat me like this, you will definitely regret it!" ”

Yang Ci had a calm face, why was Xi'er so generous and understanding, and this Yang Ying was useless except for being rude.

Yang Qianxiu had been watching silently from the side, and glanced at Yang Ci: "Ci'er, you go down first, I have something to say to your grandfather." ”

Yang Ci was also upset, so he got up and went out, and when he left, Yang Qian Xiu said, "Dad, do you think this matter was arranged by the young lady of the Chu family?" ”

"Chu Xi?" Old General Yang snorted: "She is still young, and she is a daughter's family, how can she make such a plan, if she is discovered, she calculates the royal family, but she will be killed, I think she is the same as her father." I don't have the guts. ”

Yang Qianxiu shook his head: "I don't think so, since she mentioned her resignation before, I felt that this girl was not simple, and when she went out this time, how could she happen to meet her so coincidentally, and she was taken to Linxian Tower by such a coincidence to be able to see the accident of the eldest prince?" If it's all a coincidence, then it's too bizarre. ”

Old General Yang's face was cold: "What do you want to say?" ”

Yang Qianxiu smiled and looked at his father with a cold face: "Didn't you forgive Pei'er in your heart, why don't you take this opportunity to recognize that girl?" ”

"Confused, Chu Xi is the daughter of the Chu family, Chu Bingsong is bent on clinging to the prince to gain power, if I recognize her, wouldn't I want to plunge the Yang family into injustice? Is the hundred-year-old foundation of the Yang family going to be destroyed in my hands? Old General Yang stood up suddenly: "You are not allowed to mention this matter again in the future, and you will also tell Ci'er, and he will not be allowed to contact the people of the Chu family in the future!" "With that, just step away.

Yang Qianxiu just sighed, if Chu Xi really had such scheming, he might be able to help the Yang family. But his father's knot is too deep.

Yang Ci stood outside the door and listened to these words, lowered his eyes and walked away silently.

In the Chasing Jin Pavilion, the Bai clan had been waiting for a while, and Chunzhi saw that Chu Xi had finally come, so he hurriedly greeted him, and said in a low voice: "I sat for a long time, and I didn't say anything, I just heard that there was a lot of trouble in Ruyi Garden, and the old man would rush back in a while." ”

Chu Xi bowed her head slightly and walked in.

Bai described him as thin, but he wore gold and silver, and he still looked rich.

The Bai family also saw Chu Xi and smiled: "Xi'er is back, grandmother came to see you, and I didn't know what to bring, so I asked people to prepare 20,000 taels of silver." ”

Lu Ya's eyes widened, 20,000 taels, how many trips did Qin Xue make to the Dingguo Mansion last time to borrow 10,000 taels of silver. also made Chu Bingsong treat each other for a long time.

"Thank you grandmother for your love." Chu Xi didn't say polite words, she sent 20,000 taels over, and she could save a lot of victims when the time came: "It's just that I can't keep this silver here." ”

"You don't have to worry about that." Bai Shi smiled: "I know that you are now in charge, so I sent someone to take another 5,000 taels and put it in your housekeeper's money, and the 20,000 taels you gave you were given as a dowry." When Bai Shi said this, he deliberately raised his voice: "If anyone even wants to rob you of the dowry silver of a teenage girl, it will be really inhuman." ”

Bai Xue's face turned red when she heard this, the person who can embezzle the eldest lady's silver money, the eldest lady is counted as one, but she is already sick, so only the old lady and the old lady are left.

Bai Shi is not afraid of this word getting out, anyway, she is now a broken jar, she wants Qin Xue's mother and daughter to pay for her little daughter's life, otherwise she will not be able to swallow this breath even if she dies.

Thinking of Qin Fei, Bai's eyes turned red again: "By the way, I came here because I have one more thing to tell you." Bai Shi said and looked at the people in the room.

Chu Xi glanced at everyone: "Lu Tan stays, and everyone else will go down and wait." ”

Green Sprouts led everyone to retreat, and Green Sandalwood guarded. doorway, in case someone eavesdrops.

Everyone left, and the Bai family looked at Chu Xi coldly: "I didn't come here this time to recognize any relatives with you." ”

Chu Xiwaner: "I know, otherwise I wouldn't have gone out on purpose, and let you go to Ruyi Garden to make trouble." ”

Bai Shi glanced at Chu Xi in surprise, and returned to normal: "This time, it is the Dingguo Mansion that has received secret news, the emperor's draft should be after the Spring Festival, you are not afraid to marry, but you still have three younger sisters in your family, I remember that you don't seem to have a good relationship with your sisters." ”

Chu Xi didn't expect that the emperor's draft date would be advanced, but I don't know who it would be that would be stuffed into the sedan chair at that time. And the emperor, in order to balance the power and prove that he is old and strong, he actually let so many young women enter the palace to spend their lives.

In her previous life, she had the help of a person like King Xiaoyao who covered the sky to secure the position of the concubine, but most of the others were not crazy and disabled. It is to become a slave to the lust for power.

Seeing that Chu Xi didn't speak, Bai thought that Chu Xi didn't know what this meant, and said: "This time I will not only choose a concubine for the emperor, but also choose a concubine for several princes, the eldest prince, the fourth prince, the seventh prince, the eighth prince, and the tenth prince all have no concubines now, and the position of the side concubine is not full, isn't your father just trying to send you all to the royal family, how could he let go of this opportunity?" ”

Chu Xiu laughed when she heard this, she was worried about how to give Chu Zhenzhen to King Xiaoyao, Chu Xiuxiu didn't have any brains, she only knew that if she was blindly greedy for money, she would die in the hands of Chu Dai'er or Chu Zhenzhen sooner or later, as for Chu Dai'er, she really had to think about it.

"I'll think about it." Chu Xi said lightly.

Bai Shi was in a hurry and stood up: "What are you thinking about?" You directly took advantage of the fact that the imperial list had not been released yet, and directly let people ruin the innocence of your sisters, and see how they still soared. ”

Chu Xi glanced at the Bai family, and suddenly understood in her heart why the Bai family wanted to help herself so wholeheartedly, she felt that Qin Fei was killed by Qin Xue, so she was going to destroy all the daughters of the Chu Mansion, and when she did what she said, the Bai family would kill her relatives again and identify herself as the person behind the scenes, so none of the four daughters of the Chu family would want to escape, not to mention that Chu Bingsong sent her daughter who was ruined by the famous festival to the draft, what kind of crime is it.

Why did Bai's brain suddenly get better?

Chu Xi smiled and picked up the teacup: "Don't worry, if they want to participate in the draft, let's go, if they all enter the palace, it will be difficult to come out twice a year, and I will be clean." ”

Seeing Chu Xi's sudden attitude, Bai Shi was a little annoyed: "Don't you understand what I mean?" ”

"Understood." Chu Xi still smiled faintly, but the indifference between her eyebrows and eyes made the Bai family feel a little stunned: "Chu Xi, you will regret it." Bai said angrily.

Chu Xi chuckled, looked at Bai's annoyance and was about to leave, and suddenly said, "By the way, don't forget to meet the old lady." ”

Bai Shi turned his head and glanced at Chu Xi, who was sitting quietly and quietly, and her brows were tightly twisted together, making her already thin face look even more terrifying: "Thank you for the reminder, Miss." After saying that, he turned his head and left with someone.

After she left, Lu Tan hurriedly walked over: "Miss, why don't you want her?" ”

"She's planning to catch cicadas with praying mantises, and yellow finches are behind." Chu Xi smiled faintly: "Follow her carefully after she leaves the mansion and see who she meets." ”

"Miss mean, there is someone behind her?" Green Sandalwood Road.

"I'm just skeptical." Chu Xi sighed lightly and stood up: "The Bai family is a very shallow woman, she can't think of such a profound way to pit me, and the draft in the palace, even Ruyifang has no news, where did she get the news?" ”

When Lu Tan heard this, he also felt strange, nodded and flashed out.

Chu Xi called Lu Ya in again, and asked her to immediately take 20,000 taels and the silver she had sold for the dowry before, go to buy an ordinary small house first, and then use the remaining silver to buy rice grain, charcoal fire and cotton clothes in 5:3:2 shares.

"Miss, what are we going to buy these things for?" Green Shoots are puzzled.

"You will know in the future that when you go to buy rice, try not to buy it in a shop, you hire a few more people with a strict mouth, and send people to buy rice, preferably old rice, although the taste is rougher, but you can buy a little more. There is no need to buy silver charcoal for charcoal, ordinary charcoal that can be used for heating, and then cotton clothes, buy more large and small, don't want new ones, try to buy old ones that can keep you warm and cold, buy more, and hoard them all in that house. Chu Xi instructed little by little, it is now mid to late February, and the snow has been a little lighter in the past two days, and everyone must have thought that the snow would stop. The price of rice grain should not have been raised yet.

Looking at Chu Xi's serious appearance, Green Sprout bowed: "Slave maid, let's do it." ”

"Wait a minute." Chu Ji said again: "After you go out, change your clothes, and only say that your owner is only going to move things from the capital to the surrounding areas to do business, and you must not reveal your identity." ”

Green Sprout bowed her head again: "Miss don't worry, the slave must be careful." With that, he hurried away.

Chu Xi saw that the tasks were all explained, and she was relieved.

After a while, Bai Xue's voice came from outside: "Miss, can the slave come in?" ”

"Come in." Chu Ji said.

The maids and ladies outside were all so cold that they tightened their necks, and when they heard Chu Xi's words, they hurriedly lifted the curtain and walked in to wait.

Bai Xue stepped forward and gave her the small box: "I counted the deeds of sale you wanted, and the old lady asked me to bring them to you." ”

Chu Xi took it and looked at it, and called Xiao Fu'er and her mother over.

Xiao Fu'er's mother and Lao Tzu are now doing things in the Jin Pavilion, and Aunt Fu came in and saluted.

"According to these deeds of sale, each person will send five taels of silver and send them out of the house." Chu Xi handed the deed of sale in her hand to Aunt Fu.

Aunt Fu looked at so many people. Hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and respectfully took it, and just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Chu Xi: "Wait a while." ”

Several people were puzzled, Bai Xue looked at Chu Xi: "Is the eldest lady planning to go and see it in person for a while?" ”

"No, there's something else to attend to in a moment." Chu Xi said with a smile.

"Anything else?" Bai Xue was puzzled, and as she was talking, Steward Zhu, who was in charge of the outer courtyard of the Chu Mansion, came over.

"Back to the eldest lady, the two minions who guarded the door before found it, and said that they had a stomachache, so they went to the toilet." Steward Zhu seemed respectful, but he didn't take Chu Xi in his eyes at all. He is not responsible for the backyard, but he should be in charge of all the big and small things in the front yard, and Chu Xi wants to interfere, but there is no way.

Seeing his attitude, Bai Xue frowned, and said without waiting for Chu Xi to speak: "Really? Who is responsible for arranging the goalkeepers? ”

"It's a minion." Steward Zhu said.

"That's it." Chu Ji asked people to serve tea and invite him to sit down, but before Steward Zhu's stool was hot, he heard Chu Ji say: "I don't know if I should punish you for a lack of discipline, or if I should punish the dereliction of duty on duty?" ”

"This eldest lady. The minions just said that they have a stomachache, isn't there no way to do it?"

"Bastard!" Chu Xi slapped on the coffee table next to him, so frightened that Steward Zhu almost jumped up, and finally stabilized himself, but he heard Chu Xi say: "Do you really don't know or don't know?" When I came back, I saw two foreign men enter the gate of the Chu family in a grand manner, this Chu Mansion is a drama garden, whoever wants to enter can enter? ”

Steward Zhu paused, and put the teacup aside: "I don't know who the eldest lady is talking about, the slave made people look around and didn't look at anyone, isn't the eldest lady trying to use this to trick the minion?" ”

Chu Xi sneered: "What a trick for you, you and I are idle every day, do you want to trick you disobedient minions." ”

Steward Zhu snorted coldly: "The slave doesn't know, maybe you just took charge of the house, and you want to punish the slave to show off." ”

Bai Xue was a little annoyed when she heard his disrespectful words: "Steward Zhu, the eldest lady is your master after all, you should pay attention to what you say." ”

Snow White commanded. The minions listened naturally. But if the eldest lady deliberately makes things difficult, the slave is not a soft bone, even if it is a subordinate, then it can't be punished at will, right? Steward Zhu said.

Chu Ji didn't laugh angrily, and looked at Aunt Fu on the side: "How many deeds of sale did you count there just now?" ”

Aunt Fu instantly understood Chu Xi's intentions, she didn't want to kill Steward Zhu to show everyone, but to kill Steward Zhu in front of Steward Zhu to make an example: "Miss Huiyu, there are a total of fifty-seven people before and after, but do you want the slave to be sent away now?" ”

"Well, go ahead." Chu Ji bowed her head, Aunt Fu retreated in response, Steward Zhu was stunned, and looked at Chu Xi: "You sent away fifty-seven people at once?" ”

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth hooked: "Plus the two guards who neglected their duties, and maybe you Steward Zhu, there are just sixty people." ”

Steward Zhu's face was dark: "What rights do you have." ”

Chu Ji chuckled: "Butler Zhu, can't you see that those are all deeds of sale?" Chu Xi stood up and slowly walked to Steward Zhu: "I don't have any gentle policies, and I don't want to play with you little by little." I will tell you plainly and clearly, in this house, the surname Chu is the master, even if you are a housekeeper, you are just a slave, and now you are still a slave who does not fulfill your duties. Let his subordinates be lazy and slippery, and let outsiders enter and exit this mansion casually, and now he dares to be clever here, deceiving his superiors and subordinates, Steward Zhu, according to the rules of the Chu family, do you know what punishment you will receive! ”

"According to the family rules, when you break a leg, you will be driven out of the capital." Bai Xue also said that she had been following the old lady, but she didn't know that there were people who were so rampant.

Seeing this, Steward Zhu was also iron-hearted, and laughed: "Miss." The slave's deed of sale is in the hands of the master, and if you have the ability, you can ask the master for it! ”

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth hooked, and she looked behind Steward Zhu: "I've seen my father." ”

Steward Zhu was stunned, and then hurriedly turned his head and knelt on the ground: "Back to the master, it was the eldest lady who wronged me, and it was she who wantonly framed and said that there were two outsiders in the courtyard."

Chu Bingsong just walked over and heard the conversation inside, and stepped forward to kick him in the heart: "Useless waste, you go outside for me to see, who are those two dogs!" ”

Steward Zhu was stunned, could it be that someone really slipped in?

Chu Bingsong didn't say much, for Chu Xi, those two people were living people, but they knew him and Steward Zhu, but they broke in directly without going through the courtesy, and they were bumped into by Chu Xi, that is damned.

"Okay, Steward Zhu, I will discipline myself, and you have been busy all day today. Rest early. After Chu Bingsong finished speaking, he walked away, he didn't want to say a word about Chu Xi, if it weren't for the fact that she was married by the emperor, and Lin Qingyu won the emperor's trust in the court, he wouldn't be so kind of talkative.

Chu Xi didn't stay, watching Chu Bingsong leave in a hurry, watching Steward Zhu follow behind like a dog, Chu Xi only smiled faintly: "Sister Bai Xue, how many years has this Steward Zhu been with his father?" ”

"It looks like I entered the house twelve years ago." Bai Xue thought about it carefully before saying: "I was only five or six years old at that time, and when he entered the mansion, I saw that a snake seemed to fall out of his sleeve, and I was frightened, so I was very impressed." ”

Chu Xi's expression was slightly cold, she really guessed correctly, Steward Zhu was also a chess piece planted in the Chu Mansion in Southern Xinjiang. What do the people of southern Xinjiang want to do after playing such a big game of chess? Why did you choose Chu Mansion?

After sending Chu Bingsong away, Chu Xi asked Bai Xue to go back to Ronghua Courtyard first, and it just so happened that the old lady should also know about the matter here, so as not to bite Steward Zhu back.

Snow is gone. Chu Xi turned his head and entered the room.

Lin Qingyu didn't know when she had washed up and lay on her bed, this time it seemed that she had brought a change of clothes, Lin Fu was holding a plate of toiletries on the side, and when she saw Chu Xi coming, she hurriedly bowed her head: "Young lady." ”

Chu Xi looked at Lin Qingyu: "You don't plan to go back to live?" ”

Lin Qingyu suddenly looked at Chu Xi with a serious expression: "Don't you know? ”

"Know what?"

"Your bed is made of thousand-year-old pineapple trees that grow at the highest point of Yuhua Mountain, and the temperament is warm, for me, sleeping on such a bed is better than taking ten pairs of medicine Turin." Lin Qingyu is serious, and Lin Fu is also serious.

Chu Xi was dumbfounded: "I dismantled the bed and sent it to you"

"The young lady doesn't know this, the location where this bed is now is the best feng shui and the most imposing place, and the slightest movement will break the feng shui, and this bed will become a pile of rotten wood." Lin Fu said immediately.

Chu Xi: ""

As he was talking, Lin Fu's ears suddenly moved: "Young lady, there is trouble." ”

Chu Zhen was thinking about who it was, when she saw a commotion outside, and Chu Zhenzhen had already rushed to the door with someone.

"Chu Xi, you come out for me!"

Chu Ji glanced at Lin Qingyu: "Before I come back, give me back to your Hou Mansion." With that, he turned around and left.

Lin Qingyu sighed slightly: "It seems that the temptation is not enough, Lin Fu, didn't I tell you to bring my translucent silk underwear." ”

Lin Fu frowned: "It's too angry." ”

Lin Qingyu raised the pillow in his hand and smashed it.

Chu Zhen just arrived at the door of the flower hall, and Chu Zhenzhen broke in, but Chunzhi didn't stop him even if he wanted to.

Seeing that Chu Zhenzhen Wulala brought a large group of people over, he chuckled: "Sit down." ”

Seeing her calm expression, Chu Zhenzhen took two steps back vigilantly: "Chu Zhen, do you know what I'm here for?" ”

"You sit down, so I can talk to you." Chu Xi looked at her lightly, of course she knew what she was here for, after the Bai family went to Ruyi Yuan to make a big fuss, she came here to talk secretly, anyone would feel that there was a ghost.

Chu Xiuxiu didn't know what she heard, so she came back early, and followed Chu Zhenzhen to make an idea: "Second sister, don't believe her, she has the most ghost ideas." ”

Chu Zhenzhen was about to get angry when she heard this, so she heard Chu Zhen say, "Hey, the third sister is back?" ”

Chu Xiuxiu gritted her teeth and came out to answer.

Chu Ji said with a smile: "It used to be said that the third sister was anxious and the second sister was stable, but now why is it the other way around?" ”

Chu Xiuxiu's face was stunned, but Chu Zhenzhen gritted her teeth with hatred, and pulled Chu Xiuxiu in front of her to the back, causing Chu Xiuxiu to almost fall before she could stand firm.

"What are you going to tell me?" Chu Zhenzhen said.

Chu Xi smiled lightly: "Duchess Dingguo came over and said that the draft will start in the palace soon." ”

"She wants to count me with you?" Chu Zhenzhen looked like she knew this, but Chu Zhen said: "How can it be, I hope you marry King Xiaoyao, in my opinion, you are a match made in heaven." ”

Chu Xiuxiu was surprised that Chu Xiu was actually saying good things to Chu Zhenzhen: "But who can control the draft." ”

Chu Xi said with a smile: "I didn't say that I wanted to control it, but the day after tomorrow is the second Lantern Festival in the capital, and the King of Xiaoyao and the eldest prince will travel by boat. ”

"Are you really willing to help me?" Chu Zhenzhen looked incredulous.

Chu Xi smiled and said: "Naturally, after I marry into the Lin family, don't I rely on these sisters of my mother's family, so I naturally want to help you." Moreover, if you enter the palace in the draft, who knows when you will have to survive. ”

Chu Xiuxiu sneered disdainfully, Chu Xiu still smiled lightly, not in a hurry or not annoyed: "At that time, it is your own business whether the second sister will go or not, but there is no need to come to Xingshi today to ask for guilt, if you have time, go back and pick out two good-looking clothes, wouldn't it be better to pick a few high-quality Zhu Hai, the second sister is the first talented woman in the capital, and it will be a blockbuster at that time, so what's the difficulty." Chu Zhen lightly fiddled with the tea in the cup, and she didn't know if Chu Zhenzhen would be a blockbuster at that time. But she must find a way to get the King of Joy to agree to marry her!

Chu Zhenzhen was a little excited when she thought of this, and she turned her head to leave, but Chu Xiuxiu hurriedly grabbed her: "Second sister, have you forgotten what you are here for?" ”

Chu Zhenzhen sneered and shook off Chu Xiuxiu's hand: "You also want to use me as a gunman now, and you don't want to see what you are!" With that, he turned around and left.

Chu Xiuxiu stood in place embarrassedly, turned her head to look at Chu Xiu, and bit her lip slightly: "Big sister, did you just say that the emperor is really going to be drafted?" ”

Chu Xi was a little surprised: "The emperor is almost sixty years old this year. ”

Chu Xiuxiu glanced at her disdainfully: "What do you know, how many of the favored ladies in the harem are old and yellow?" It's not all those fair-skinned and beautiful young women. With that, he left satisfied.

Chu Xi blinked, but she didn't say anything, it was Chu Xiuxiu's brain, and she entered the palace, but in the first round, she would be thrown into the miscellaneous courtyard to do hard work, but she was so brave, Chu Xiu didn't really want to stop it.

It didn't take long. Green sandalwood is also back.

"Miss, I see." As soon as Lu Tan entered the door, he first roasted his hands in front of the charcoal brazier: "Frozen me to death, I followed her all the way, she walked a lot of places before entering a small alley, there were many ambushes around it, and I didn't dare to approach, so I guarded at the mouth of the alley, and I didn't expect to see the King of Joy walking out of it." ”

"Him?" Chu Xi's face was slightly gloomy, why did he want to target himself now, the move that the Bai clan said just now was a killing move, did he find something.

"By the way, when they came out, I also heard the attendant next to him say that the owner of the rouge shop committed suicide or something, as if the last time I somehow sent you fat powder, it was the King of Freedom." Lu Tan's face was strange, he wanted to laugh, but he also felt that the King of Freedom was narrow-minded, and he didn't sign his identity and sent something over. The young lady gave it to his subordinates, and he thought that the young lady was insulting him.

Chu Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, Zhao Xunyan's mother died early, and he was subjected to the white eyes and bullying of many people since he was a child, so he hated others for offending him, not to mention that he also gave everything he gave to Xiao Fu'er. However, Chu Xi didn't sympathize with him, even if she knew that it was sent by Zhao Xunyan, she wouldn't ask for it, but it would be more appropriate to dispose of it.

"You tell me to go down, and in the future, as long as it is sent anonymously, you are not allowed to accept it." Chu Xi said, this is a flying disaster, but sooner or later he will be the enemy head-on, and he doesn't care about this.

Lu Tan bowed her head, and Chu Xi stopped her: "You go to find the green sprouts and help her get things done and come back later." ”

"Okay."

After Lu Tan left, Chu Xi walked into the room quickly, but the people in the room were gone.

"Are you going back?" Chu Xiwu was annoyed to herself. When I turned around, I saw a jade-faced boy standing behind him wearing only a translucent silk shirt

"Looking for me?" Lin Qing raised his lips foolishly and evilly, and Chu Xi looked at him indifferently: "Put on my clothes for me." ”

"Don't like it?" Lin Qingyu got closer slightly, and the fragrance on his body came over after he had just bathed, Rao is an ordinary woman, and he can't help it no matter how reserved he is, but Chu Xi is not an ordinary woman: "Either take off naked, or put on my clothes." ”

The corners of Lin Qingyu's mouth twitched, if he was stripped naked, he would be the one who suffered.

"Okay, okay, whatever you want depends on you." Lin Qingyu picked his fingertips lightly, and a white robe flew into his hand, turned his head and put it on his body, but in the blink of an eye, he grabbed Chu Xi's waist and rolled down on the bed: "If you like this, then so be it." ”

Chu Xi: ""

Lin Qingyu's eyes were crooked like a fox, and Chu Xi sighed lightly: "I want to ask you to do me a favor." ”

"Well, you say." Lin Qingyu stared at her without blinking.

Chu Xi only felt that his head was big: "King Xiaoyao has been tracking Wuji Pavilion before, right?" ”

"Uh-huh."

"Then you can represent the Infinite Pavilion. And something that the Easy King can recognize at a glance? ”

Lin Qingyu looked at him meaningfully: "Do you want to trap him?" ”

"Of course not, I want to give him a woman." Chu Xiwan'er, give him a woman, a woman who can pull him into the quagmire!
