Chapter 186: The most beautiful proprietress on Mahang Street

Fu Jiuqu's eyebrows were raised, with a lazy smile, "The truth comes out from under the stick." ”

Xin Yi looked at him in shock, "You tortured her?" She is pregnant. ”

Fu Jiuqu looked at her appearance, obviously thinking that he had already regarded himself as a vicious person who would punish pregnant women, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he snorted lowly.

"I just hit her child's father."

Xin Yi snorted, "The child in her belly is...... Du Zhongqing's? ”

Fu Jiuqu nodded and didn't say anything more.

He was not interested in the grievances and hatred of those two people.

He noticed Xin Yi's pale complexion, and the subtle dark color under his eyelashes, which was clearly the appearance of a serious illness that had not recovered, so he stopped talking and leaned over to cushion the soft pillow he had picked up on her waist.

"Alright. I'm done, and it's time for my sister-in-law to rest. ”

Xin Yi leaned on the soft pillow and looked at his expression.

"Are those fragrant girls Du Zhongqing's doing? What role does Shi Tang play in it? There is also Zhang Lu, Zhang Jia...... Is it the mastermind behind the scenes? I still have a lot of questions......"

“……”

Fu Jiuqu looked at her tense little face and said lightly: "Did I tell you that you are not allowed to take care of the case anymore?" ”

Xin Yi sighed slowly, "I'm curious." Besides, didn't the king of the county tell me himself? I didn't force you, how can someone say half the truth? If you don't say it, I won't be able to sleep. ”

"How can I sleep?" Fu Jiuqu's starry eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly leaned over, so close that Xin Yi involuntarily held his breath, his chest rose and fell, and his body kept leaning back, before he stopped, propped his hand on her side, looked at her nervous appearance with a smile, snorted, pulled out the pillow from her back, and threw it to the side.

"Lie down, close your eyes, and you'll be asleep."

“……”

He stood up, slowly arranging his collar and robe, his voice calm and lazy, as if he had just gotten up and was about to go out, very comfortable.

"I can't go on with you anymore. Du Zhongqing has been imprisoned, and the Imperial City Division is investigating the matter of him and Shi Tang collecting incense medicine and concocting incense girls......"

After that, he glanced back at Xin Yi, explained things to his family, and said in a gentle tone: "His house was confiscated according to the law and belonged to the imperial court." But don't worry, I'll buy back ...... at the price."

Xin Yi's eyebrows raised, and he was about to ask him what he was doing when he bought it, when he saw the corners of Fu Jiuqu's lips slightly hooked.

"Rent it to you."

“……”

Xin Yi pursed the corners of his mouth and didn't speak for a long time.

Fu Jiuqu chuckled, "What's the matter, looking at your appearance, it seems that you are not very happy?" ”

Xin Yi shook his head, his gaze fell on his face, "I can't afford to rent it." ”

Fu Jiuqu: "I owe it." ”

"I owe you too much to pay."

"Then you will ......" Fu Jiuqu answered lazily, stopped halfway through the conversation, and said lazily at her: "Develop a prescription well." As long as you can cure my illness, I am willing to pay as much as I want. You should think of it as an advance payment. ”

"How can there be a reason to collect other people's consultation fees first if you don't see a prescription? I'm not that lacking in virtue. ”

Xin Yi's head drooped lower and lower, his voice became smaller and smaller, and his heart was filled with strange little Jiujiu.

It's okay to owe a favor once in a while, but if you always owe someone, it's not like that. She didn't like to owe others, she owed too much, and she was a little low in front of Fu Jiuqu for no reason, and after that, she might not be able to speak hard.

When she thought of this, she felt very uncomfortable.

"Forget it, I won't rent that house. The king of the county honors the gambling contract, give me this side a little money, as long as the place is enough......"

Fu Jiuqu put away his smiling face, looked at her seriously for a moment, and silently took a sip of tea.

"You're nicer to me, what's not?"

"Huh?" Xin Yi didn't hear clearly, and squinted his eyes, "What did the county king say?" ”

Fu Jiuqu smiled lowly, "I said that as long as you are good to me, I am happy, you can be as lacking in virtue as you want." ”

“……”

Xin Yi stared at him for a moment, and couldn't help laughing.

With this smile, the tense emotions were relaxed.

She sighed lowly, "Sometimes I think that the king is a very easy-going and friendly person, sincere and down-to-earth. I don't even understand why so many people speak ill of the king......"

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyebrows, disapproving.

Xin Yi said again: "But sometimes, I will be inexplicably afraid of the county king." Because the king of the county ...... It is true that they are often unreasonable and do whatever they want. ”

Fu Jiuqu snorted, as if he had been praised, and his eyebrows lit up with a smile.

"The truth is for my own people, and I only talk about the means for people who have nothing to do with me. As for doing whatever you want...... "He stared at Xin Yi, his eyes deep and bright, "once in a while, what is it?" ”

“……”

Xin Yi saw that he was casually talking and joking, and he also laughed along, but he didn't know that Fu Jiuqu did it later.

It has been a long time since the assassination on the official ship, but the search for the culprits by the Imperial City Division has not stopped.

Fu Jiuqu was busy with official business, so he also took the time to come. After a short sitting, he took his leave.

The next day, the two vanished craftsmen came, bringing back not only the drawings, but also a large number of craftsmen, who opened the closed door of the next courtyard and began construction.

The wall that Xin Yi had just asked someone to repair was directly demolished by the craftsmen. What's even more ridiculous is that the first job that the craftsman came to do in the pharmacy was to remove the horizontal plaque with the words "Xinyifang" written on it. They said that they would wait for the pharmacy to be repaired, and then they would be merged into one and then re-listed.

Such a big momentum has attracted a new discussion on Mahang Street.

Some people say that Du Zhongqing skinned a woman and hid it in the cellar of his family, and he was already arrested and imprisoned, and some people said that the fox demon caught by the Imperial City Division was Du Zhongqing's pretense. Every third watch, in the middle of the night, this Du shopkeeper disguised himself as a woman and put on a layer of fox skin to go out to harm people, looking for men......

Folk rumors are false and real, and there are endless disputes.

But there is one thing that everyone agrees on, the biggest winner in this matter is Xin Yi, the proprietress of the pharmacy.

She risked her life to save the king of Guangling County, won the favor of the county king, and her status was far above the big girl Cao who wanted to die or live, and some people even swore that a distant relative of her family was in charge of the eldest princess's mansion, and she had already learned that the eldest prince would include Zhang Xiaoniang in the mansion as the concubine of the county king.

All in all, Xin Yi became the most beautiful proprietress on Mahang Street.

There is no plaque in the pharmacy, but it is more lively than before, as if it is already a medicine shop with extraordinary status on Mahang Street.

When the incident came, it not only attracted the envy of the girls, but also attracted a bunch of sycophants. The gift-giving and visiting-visiting made Xin Yi very annoyed and had to continue pretending to be sick.

But when Xin Yi was pretending to be sick at home, Fu Jiuqu never came again.

Until the day when Empress Cao presided over the silkworm ceremony, she received an invitation from Concubine Zhang Guifei and went to the inner garden......

------Off topic------

Fu Jiuqu: I allow you to lack virtue.

Xin Yi: I allow you to be tsundere.

Erjin: I allow you to scold me for my late shift.

Reader: I allow you to add more......

Erjin: Okay, I'll have three shifts tomorrow, and I'll try to have a 10,000 watch the day after tomorrow and the weekend, okay?
