Chapter 686: Coming Back for Revenge
Qiu Junshan obediently leaned closer.
Fu Jiuqu lowered his voice and said a few words in a voice that only he could hear, Qiu Junshan's face changed greatly when he heard it, and he looked up in surprise.
"The king of the county, I, I'm afraid I won't be able to do ...... well"
Fu Jiuqu smiled faintly and slapped Qiu Junshan's arm twice.
"Old Qiu, you have to remember to take care of the grandparents and grandchildren of the dark clothes shop......"
Cai Qi said suspiciously: "Chonglou is saying that someone will be unfavorable to Lao Qiu's family?" β
Before Fu Jiuqu could answer, he heard Cao Yi say softly: "It is very likely that that person will touch the five miscellaneous alleys, and he can't say that he will listen to something from their mouths, and even kill people to kill people......
Cai Qi was startled and nodded again.
"That's right...... Since Chonglou can find the clothes shop, that person must be able to ...... Old enemy, go back quickly. β
Qiu Junshan glanced at Fu Jiuqu, saw him nodding, and immediately gave his hand.
"I'll go back now...... The king of the county, the little marquis, and Lord Cao...... Leave. β
Qiu Junshan official went to the record to join the army, and he was on the battlefield, he was not afraid of these young people, but as soon as he turned around, Fu Jiuqu called Cheng Cang.
"Send someone to keep an eye on you."
Cheng Cang responded, "My subordinates understand." β
Before he could finish speaking, Yi Chuan came in.
"Ninth Master, the Yacha who escorted the prisoners to Shamen Island in Kaifeng Mansion a few months ago has returned......"
Fu Jiuqu glanced at Cao Yi and Cai Qi.
"Let's go!"
The five miscellaneous alleys are far less lively than the bustling streets, and even a little cold, but the New Year, call Huazi's family to eat dumplings, the doors on both sides of the alley are pasted with Spring Festival couplets and door gods, which look so festive, and this damp and rotten alley is very incompatible.
Fu Jiuqu and his entourage passed through the alley generously, as if to attract attention, although they were wearing civilian clothes, dressed as Jianghu people, but their appearance was very high-profile.
Cai Qi looked at them, and then looked at the people who probed in the alley from time to time, full of doubts.
"Don't you think it's strange?"
"What's so strange?"
"These people look at us strangely......"
"Hmm."
"Shouldn't we avoid some of them, so that these people can see how bad they are coming and going?"
"Just to let them see."
"Why?" Cai Qi has a lot of puzzles.
But Fu Jiuqu thought that when he saw that there was no way out of the alley, he stepped on the horse and drove away.
"Dog thing!" Cai Qi scolded, turned around and asked Cao Yi, "Why?" β
Cao Yi frowned.
It is not easy to explain to a naΓ―ve and innocent person the decisions made by a calculating guy.
Cai Qi is too bad to turn around.
Cao Yi pondered it for a moment and said: "When the two armies face the enemy, they first show their swords, which is momentum and strategy. There's nothing wrong with letting people know we're investigating. β
"Momentum, Strategy......"
Cai Qi muttered a few words, and found that Cao Yi had already got on the horse, and with a roar, he walked quickly with his entourage.
"Hey! These guys ......"
Cai Qi's second monk was confused.
"You said these two guys just don't look down on me like that?"
Geng Mao didn't dare to look at his master, and he didn't raise his head, "It's not that I can't look down on it...... It's the little marquis who is too stupid......"
"What did you say?"
Cai Qi turned his head with a dark face and reached out to pat his head.
"Say it again, you say it again, see if you don't beat your father and mother...... Hum! If I'm stupid, what do they tell me to do? Call me here, and it will prove that you are useful! β
"The subordinates are wrong, the little marquis spares his life......"
The two of them were making a fuss, and a cold voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Zijin, don't come unharmed."

On the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, Xin Yi ate at the Chang Princess Mansion, and in the evening there was a night banquet in the palace, and their whole family went out to the palace for a banquet.
The New Year is a big festival, every household reunites to drink and feast, but the most lively festival during the New Year's Festival, in fact, is the "Shangyuan Festival", on the fifteenth day of the first month, the palace will prepare a first-class state banquet in the Jiying Palace, six tributes, Si Tianji singing, mountain building pomp, the emperor will also ascend the Xuande Gate Tower during the Shangyuan Festival, see the lights of thousands of homes, and enjoy with the people.
The eldest princess has not returned to Bianjing for several years, and she is looking forward to this year, and when she is waiting for Fu Jiuqu to go home, she keeps telling Xin Yi about these old imperial calendars.
Finally, seeing her soullessness, I sighed.
"Eleven, I've wronged you." She took Xin Yi's hand.
"Ah Jiu is a bastard, he will go outside for the New Year, and when he comes back, I have to talk about him ......"
The mother-in-law defended herself, which made Xin Yi's heart very warm, but she knew what Fu Jiuqu had done, how could she blame her?
So, she kept saying good things for Fu Jiuqu. But the more good things she said, the more the eldest princess felt that her daughter-in-law had been wronged, and her son was really not a thing......
When Fu Jiuqu came back, he saw the anger in his old mother's eyes, and he was a little confused.
"Didn't I say I'd be back later? What's going on? β
Xin Yi saw that the eldest prince was going to open his mouth to train people, and immediately pulled Fu Jiuqu back to the house, "It's not early, hurry up and go back to change clothes, I can't catch up for a while......"
The eldest princess snorted and looked at her bewildered son.
"I didn't hear your lady's orders, why don't you go quickly?"
Fu Jiuqu: ......
Why did he dislike his mother like this?
Β·Β·
When I entered the palace, the snow fell heavier.
Xianyu and Little Raccoon Flower huddled together with their grandmother, and Sannian was also called over. First Nian and Second Nian rode horses, leaving only Xin Yi and Fu Jiuqu in the same carriage.
The streets on Chinese New Year's Eve are a little deserted, and there are no people walking around the streets, but whoever has a meal will put two strings of artillery battles, and the crackling sound is very lively.
Xin Yi listened to the sound of firecrackers, lifted the curtain to look at the snow, listened to the laughter and laughter coming from every household, and couldn't help but lift the corners of his lips.
"Brother Jiu, how good would it be if there was no famine, war, and disaster, and the people could enjoy peace and prosperity forever?"
Fu Jiuqu held her hand.
"There will be a day."
Xin Yi lowered the curtain and looked at him, "But there are always people who don't want to make the world better......
Fu Jiuqu's gaze swept over her worried little face, and he reached out to hold the person in his arms.
"I'm fine." Xin Yi raised his head, squinted and smiled, "It's just a sudden emotion, why are you so emotional?" β
Fu Jiuqu stroked her back and said in a low voice:
"I've seen a few of the yacha who have returned from Salmon Island today."
Xin Yi's heart tightened, "What do you say?" β
Fu Jiuqu said: "Zhang Xun, I ran away from Shamen Island." β
There was a moment of silence in the carriage.
"It's a character." The corners of Xin Yi's lips hooked slightly, "It seems that the figure I saw in Daxiangguo Temple that day is him." β
This man can escape from the kind of human purgatory on Salmon Island, and I have to say that he has some real skills, and he is worthy of being the male protagonist with countless red faces set in the original plot.
But such a person becomes an opponent, and it is also extremely dangerous.
"He came back to seek revenge on us."

It is rare for the eldest princess to bring a family into the palace, and the emperor and queen are very happy, and after the palace banquet, they will leave their mother to speak.
This is also the eldest princess's maiden family, although Xin Yi wants to go home very much, she still accompanies her patiently.
Zhou Yiliu was also present tonight out of courtesy, and the eldest princess did not neglect the little princess she gave birth to, and even called in front of her and teased her for a moment.
But Zhou Yiliu, who was bent on begging the eldest princess for forgiveness, was a little absent-minded today, and answered the wrong questions several times, obviously sitting nearby, but like a wandering spirit.
When she returned to the house, the eldest princess sighed.
"That girl looks strange and pitiful, at first I complained about her, but tonight I saw her like that, and I went down angry......"
Xin Yi knew that Zhou Yiliu had been waiting for the eldest princess for several years, and she had an emotional foundation, and the eldest princess was originally a kind and generous character.
She didn't want to go against the will of the eldest princess, besides, a person's opinion is what he thinks in his heart, and others can't change it.
"Mother is absolutely right." Xin Yi smiled obediently: "It's not early, mother should rest early, and tomorrow morning I will enter the palace to pay New Year's greetings to the officials and saints." β
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the emperor and queen are the busiest, to accept the New Year's congratulations of hundreds of officials, and the courtiers who are forced to work are also workers, so they have to get up early to enter the palace to pay respects, and the number of rituals is extremely cumbersome.
The eldest princess laughed when she heard this.
"I know that you are most impatient with these, tomorrow, you sleep lazily at home, and you can get up as long as you want, and I will tell the sage that you are not feeling well......"
Xin Yi was about to cry with emotion.
"Thank you mother......"
"Go, go, it's cold, go back to accompany Ah Jiu early, don't have to pestle in front of my old woman."
What to accompany Ah Jiu?
Ah Jiu slipped away when he returned home......
During the Chinese New Year, Xin Yi didn't want the eldest princess to worry, so he didn't tell him about it, and said a few words with a smile, "Mother is not old" and "Mother is the best-looking", and took the little raccoon back to Linqu Pavilion.
As soon as he passed the water pavilion, he saw Bai Zhi running in in a hurry.
"Princess ...... County"
She blessed her body with great speed, and said:
"The little Cao lady of the founding of the Houfu has an urgent matter to see, it seems to be related to the little marquis, the little Cao lady is very anxious, the princess of the county go and take a look......"
Cao Yilan: I didn't think I would lose my father-in-law......
Xin Yi: Congratulations. I also want to lose my husband.
