Chapter 34: Xiyan Hands
Seeing Xiao Lan being pushed to the ground by Ruan Leyao like this, Chu Linche on the side was secretly shocked, this girl was too ruthless, she was simply a living tigress!
Fortunately, he didn't insist on helping Shen Yanshu just now.
Shen Yuyan saw that Xiao Lan was actually pushed to the ground, and she was a little helpless when she stood there, especially now that there are so many foreign men here.
Gu Ziyi is also there.
She secretly glanced at Gu Ziyi, but found that his gaze always stayed on Shen Yanshu's body, and her heart couldn't help sinking, and her eyes became more and more resentful.
Xiao Lan got up directly, so angry that she directly shook off the two maids who were about to step forward to support her, and glared angrily.
"Shen Yanshu, Ruan Leyao, you remember it for me!" After saying this, she ran out of the courtyard crying.
Shen Yuyan looked at it and was about to catch up, but when she saw that Gu Ziyi was still here, her feet stopped.
Lu Huaiyuan felt very chaotic, and when he saw that there were still many people in the courtyard watching the excitement, he didn't care about anything else, and walked in front of those people.
"Please forgive me for the inconsiderate reception, please move to Zhiyuanxuan, and the banquet will start normally later. β
After speaking, he motioned to the housekeeper to bring these people over, and settled them down in Zhiyuan Xuanzhong first.
Gu Ziyi didn't follow them, but walked in front of Shen Yanshu by ghost.
Shen Yanshu raised his head, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Gu Gongzi is in trouble?"
"Are you alright?" Gu Ziyi asked her, with concern in his tone.
Shen Yanshu sneered: "I have nothing to do with Gu Gongzi if I have anything to do, right?"
Gu Ziyi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Shen Yanshu's attitude towards him to be so cold, as long as he talked to her, she always looked very shy.
Although at that time, her shy appearance with dark spots on her face really disgusted him.
How to say that he was also her fiancΓ©, it was good to be able to come over and care about her, she had such an attitude, Gu Ziyi couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
"It's really none of my business, it's me meddling!" Gu Ziyi said angrily, he really had a brain convulsion before he came over to care about Shen Yanshu.
Gu Ziyi turned around and left, and Shen Yuyan, who was standing not far away, saw that the two of them had a disagreement, and she was inexplicably happy in her heart, but she had a worried look on her face.
"Gu Gongzi, don't mind, my sister is like this......" said and chased Gu Ziyi away.
Lu Huaiyuan looked at the remaining Shen Yanshu, Ruan Leyao and Chu Linche, and it was a little difficult for a while.
"If the two girls want to stay and continue to rest, they can go to the guest room with the other women, if so, ......"
"No need, let's go back first, disturbing the happy event of your mansion, but I feel uneasy. Shen Yanshu interrupted him and said.
The corners of Chu Linche's mouth twitched slightly, where did this Shen Yanshu look a little uneasy?
Lu Huaiyuan didn't know what happened yet, so it was difficult to make inferences, he turned his head to look at Chu Linche and asked, "...... that son?"
"Originally, I was thinking of having a banquet, but now it seems that Lord Lu is lacking in skills, so I won't bother!" Chu Linche put away the folding fan and said with a smile.
Lu Huaiyuan knew that this Dingxi Hou Shizi had always been casual and unpredictable, and he was able to come today to give enough face.
He arched his hand and said to Chu Linche: "Then the next official will make a compensatory to the prince another day." β
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Lord Lu should go and get busy first!" Chu Linche said.
Lu Huaiyuan instructed the little servant to take a few guests out, and then he bowed again, and hurried towards the direction of the guest room.
Just when Lu Huaiyuan hadn't gone far, Xi Yan, who had been by Shen Yanshu's side, suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and was about to get up in the direction of Lu Huaiyuan, but Shen Yanshu grabbed his wrist and pressed it silently.
Xiyan subconsciously wanted to break free from Shen Yanshu's shackles, but Shen Yanshu held the acupoint in her hand and couldn't move.
The others didn't notice their movements, and thought that Shen Yanshu had to be supported by Xiyan all the time because he was not feeling well.
Xiyan saw that Lu Huaiyuan had already walked out of the courtyard and couldn't see his figure, so he had to give up the idea of assassinating him, and the movements of his hands stopped.
As Shen Yanshu let go of his hand, Xiyan silently hid the dagger in his hand back into his sleeve, but his expression was very unwilling.
She didn't expect that Shen Yanshu, who usually looked soft and weak, would stop her at a critical moment, she glanced down at Shen Yanshu, and when she met the warm and angry eyes, she was a little weak-hearted.
Shen Yanshu stood up from the stone bench and whispered in Xiyan's ear, "Go back and give me an explanation." β
Xiyan bowed his head and was silent.
Shen Yanshu and Ruan Leyao were about to leave this courtyard, and when they saw Chu Linche also coming up, Ruan Leyao couldn't help frowning and said, "What are you doing with us?"
"This is the only way out, how can I say that I am following you?" Chu Linche looked innocent.
Ruan Leyao couldn't get used to his appearance the most, and she didn't want to entangle with him too much: "There is no best!"
As he spoke, he helped Shen Yanshu and walked towards the gate of the Zhongfu together.
Chu Linche shrugged his shoulders, followed up again, and said: "The girl's family, it's better not to be so irritable, the little jasper is so popular! β
"The likes of the sons of the family, it's better not to be too smuggled, only the personable ones are likable, and the ones who are too scoundrels to be careful not to marry a daughter-in-law!" Ruan Leyao said angrily.
"I don't agree with this, isn't this son of the world personable? Where is this son of a scoundrel?"
"I'm not saying it's you, it's you admitting it. β
"You!" Chu Linche was so stunned by her that he had nothing to say, the folding fan in his hand pointed at Ruan Leyao and couldn't say a word for a long time, it was the first time he had seen a woman who was so unkind to him.
Shen Yanshu watched from the side that Ruan Leyao was able to block Chu Linche speechless, and couldn't help laughing.
"The prince of Dingxi has never been concerned about the affairs of the court, why did he come here today?" Shen Yanshu was puzzled.
Chu Linche saw that Shen Yanshu had finally taken care of himself, and he didn't bother with Ruan Leyao anymore, and said, "Although this son doesn't like to take care of the affairs of the court, he loves to join in the fun!"
"So the prince of the world is here to see the excitement today?" Shen Yanshu said, "That prince is really clever." β
Chu Linche said: "What this prince originally wanted to see was not the excitement of you and Mrs. Lu, but there are surprises everywhere in life, this scene is not bad, but it's a pity that I couldn't see it with my own eyes." β
Shen Yanshu ignored his ridicule and asked, "What kind of excitement did the prince originally plan to watch?"
Chu Linche smiled and said, "Naturally, I heard that Lord Lu has a Qilin Talisman in his hand, and he wants to come over and open his eyes." β
After hearing his words, Shen Yanshu sneered, as if he was listening to a very ridiculous joke.
"You don't believe it?" Chu Linche was a little strange.
Even if others don't believe it, they just doubt it, but Shen Yanshu is very sure that Lu Huaiyuan doesn't have the appearance of a Qilin Talisman in his hand.
Seeing Chu Linche's inquiring look, Shen Yanshu cleared his throat and said, "I heard that this Qilin Talisman can call 500,000 soldiers and horses, Lord Lu is just a civil official, how can it be in his hands?"
That's not true. Chu Linche looked very gossipy, "Then Lord Lu once married Qi Yunge, there have long been rumors that Qi Yi gave the Qilin Talisman to Qi Yunge, and Qi Yunge brought the Qilin Talisman into the Lu family, think about it, after this Qi Yunge dies, who will get this talisman?"
After listening to Chu Linche's words, Shen Yanshu understood, she felt strange at first, how could this Lu Huaiyuan's promotion be so fast, so many people came here to cheer for the housewarming of the new house, it turned out that they all heard the news of the Qilin Talisman.
The Qilin Soldier Talisman was born again, and no matter whether the news is true or false, everyone will be a little jealous.
Therefore, Lu Huaiyuan was promoted, and the emperor wanted him to rest assured under his nose, and when other ministers heard the news, they would inevitably come to explore the truth.
Shen Yanshu felt ridiculous, I was afraid that Lu Huaiyuan himself didn't know what was going on, otherwise when someone said that he had the Qilin Talisman in his hand just now, how could he be indifferent and have no reaction.
But this kind of indifference will make those people more convinced that the Qilin Talisman is in his hands, and for those who have been in the officialdom for more than ten years, he is covering up if he doesn't explain.
At the beginning, the Qi family was jealous of the emperor because of the Qilin Talisman, and he was convinced that the Qi family was rebelling, but now this hot potato has arrived at the Lu family, I really don't know how Lu Huaiyuan will deal with it, if he has the Qilin Talisman, it would be good to say, in order to save his life, it would be just to hand it over, but unfortunately he didn't.
When the time comes, someone will really puncture this matter, Lu Huaiyuan explained that he doesn't have a Qilin Talisman, how many people will believe it?
Chu Linche didn't know what Shen Yanshu was thinking, and when he saw her pondering, he thought that she believed her own nonsense, and said with a smile: "Does Miss Shen also want to see this Qilin Talisman?"
Shen Yanshu was walking along, when he suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at Chu Linche seriously: "I want to know who first passed on Lord Lu to have a Qilin Talisman." β
"This ......" Chu Linche didn't expect her to ask this question, smiled awkwardly, and said, "What's so strange about this, maybe someone in the Lu Mansion accidentally found out and spread it, doesn't everyone know?"
"Oh~" Shen Yanshu nodded as if he didn't understand, and his eyes seemed to be trying to see through Chu Linche's flowery intestines.
If he hadn't known that ordinary people couldn't get the Qilin Talisman at all, Shen Yanshu might have really believed in him.
Seeing Shen Yanshu's eyes, Chu Linche smiled stiffly: "Hehe...... Ben Shizi suddenly remembered that he had asked someone to drink, so he took his leave first. β
He shook the folding fan and flew away with the little servant as if he had fled from the desert.
When he walked outside the Lu Mansion, he stopped, and after confirming that Shen Yanshu and the others had not come over, Chu Linche suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
No, why should I hide from them?
Chu Linche patted his head, it must be because that Shen Yanshu was too evil, as if he knew that all this was done by him.
