Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 2208 Xiao Fengqi’s Unkind Invitation 2.0

"If the three of you agree that there is something wrong with her, then the origin of Princess Zhenhe may be worthy of further investigation."

Seeing the troubled expression on Xiao Fengqi's face, Shen Cha waved his hands towards Ying Wu and Mei Lin, signaling them to guard the door and not let anyone in without her consent.

Ying Wu and Mei Lin agreed and glanced at Xiao Fengqi in unison. They turned around and left the box. After closing the door, they were like two door gods, guarding the door and not allowing anyone to approach.

Because of the night market in Jiapingguancheng, there were a lot of customers in the teahouse. Mr. Jiang knew that all his juniors were here, but he really couldn't spare the time to take a look. After finally finishing this busy period, he could finally take a breath. Then he slowly climbed up to the second floor.

When he walked through the corridor and came to the end, he saw Ying Wu and Merlin standing at the door.

"We're talking about something?" Seeing Ying Wu and Mei Lin nodding, Mr. Jiang chuckled lightly and said, "Did you kick you out to guard the gate again?"

"The boss's order is to leave others alone." Ying Wu shrugged helplessly, "Of course, the second master is not within this range. Please wait a moment, I will go in and inform you."

"Don't go. Let them talk about things when they're done." Jiang Erye waved his hand gently, "Just stay here. If you need anything, just go to Xiao Liuzi." He stretched out his hand to pat him. He patted Ying Wu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, keep a close watch!"

"Ah? Are you leaving now?" Seeing Mr. Jiang was about to leave, Ying Wu quickly stopped him, "Are you really not going to go in and take a look?"

"What are you looking at? Where do I have the time? There are a lot of people coming to drink tea at the night market tonight. The lobby has been turned over several times. These kids are going crazy." Jiang Erye thought for a while, " By the way, I heard about it just now. Who did Xiao Tianer bring in? I heard he was from the Xiao family of Liao Kingdom?"

"Yes!" Ying Wu nodded, "It's not the Xiao family of the past, it's the new Xiao family."

"I've heard that he's a ruthless character who doesn't break or establish." Second Master Jiang didn't know what he thought of. He twitched the corners of his lips and muttered in a low voice, "If she knew about it, I don't know how she would feel."

"What did you say? Who?"

"Nothing!" Second Master Jiang looked at the box and sighed softly, "Okay, it's time for me to leave. As I said before, if you have anything to do, see Xiao Liuzi."

"Okay, Second Master, we understand!"

Second Master Jiang nodded, patted Ying Wu on the shoulder, and walked quickly through the corridor. He was walking as fast as if there was some monster chasing him behind him.

"Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, tell me." Ying Wu looked at Mr. Jiang's hurried back, touched his chin, poked Mei Lin, who was also standing over, and said in a low voice, "Doesn't it look like he's running away in despair? mean?"

"I have never seen the second master in such a panic." Seeing the second master Jiang disappear, Merlin and Ying Wu whispered together, "I'm afraid it's impossible to make the second master react like this. It can only be someone from the Xiao family." She thought for a moment, "Looking at it like this, I'm afraid that rumor is not groundless. I can't tell."

"What rumors? What do you know?" Ying Wu looked at her curiously, "Tell me about it."

Merlin waved to Ying Wu. The two of them stood far away from the last box. This corridor belonged to them anyway, and other people would not come up easily. They could definitely ensure that no one could slip past them. "Hurry up and tell me what's going on!"

"It was a long time ago. I heard a story about the Second Master." Merlin thought for a moment and pointed to the box. "Miao Miao also knows about it."

"Then why don't we know?"

"Why do you boys know this?" Merlin chuckled, "A long time ago, the Duke's wife told us that we should not be fooled by the sweet words of these young men from aristocratic families."

"This is quite necessary." Ying Wu nodded, "Compared with those young men in Xijing City, these guys in our family are much more innocent."

"That's right!" Merlin smiled, "The second master is actually quite innocent. Unlike many children from aristocratic families in Xijing City, he doesn't have so much playfulness, and he doesn't hang out in brothels or brothels. However, the more People like this are more likely to be emotionally frustrated. It’s because of this that the second master hasn’t gotten married yet. He almost got married when he was young.”

"Almost?"

"Yes." Merlin nodded, "But it didn't work out. Not long after, he had to change his name because of the incident in Ning Chang Kingdom, and he arrived at the border. Then..." She spread her hands, "There was nothing more."

"Why didn't it work?"

"The person he liked, the person he wanted to get married to, suddenly disappeared." Merlin sighed softly, "He met the girl while traveling, and the two of them were together for almost a few months. During that time, they traveled most of the south of the Yangtze River. The two of them had similar interests and got along very well. Of course, they were both in love and polite, and they didn't do anything too extreme. The wife said that the second master was already prepared. When I returned to Xijing City, I had to submit a letter to ask His Majesty for permission to get married. But" she paused, "On the morning of entering the city, the person disappeared. "

"Gone?"

"Yeah!" Merlin spread his hands, "I can't find it no matter how hard I look, it just disappeared so suddenly, as if it had never appeared before."

"At this point, this story sounds similar to Mr. Xiao's fiancée." Ying Wu looked at the box not far away, then looked at Merlin and said, "Is it possible?"

"It's just that the disappearance of the fiancée was the same as Mr. Xiao's experience, but it was completely different later. Because he couldn't find someone, he couldn't get married. The second master was still depressed for a while, and he felt a lot haggard. "Meilin sighed softly and continued in a very low voice, "Almost a year has passed. The second master received an errand to go to the Liao Kingdom and was preparing to leave Daxia and go out to relax. The result was good. By coincidence, he actually met the person he had been thinking about for a year in Linhuang Mansion. "

"In Linhuang Mansion? Is that girl from Liao?" Seeing Mei Lin nod, Ying Wu thought for a moment, turned to look in the direction of the box, and said in a low voice, "Can't she be from the Xiao family?"

"That's right!" Merlin spread his hands, "The eldest lady of the Xiao family at that time, the biological sister of Young Master Xiao Fengqi's grandfather."

"Isn't that his aunt? A direct relative?" Seeing Merlin nod, Ying Wu sighed softly, "After the second master found out, he must have been greatly shocked, right? Considering our relationship with the Liao Kingdom at that time, it was It is absolutely impossible to form a good relationship between Qin and Jin, right? "

"Who says it isn't?" Merlin shrugged helplessly, "Moreover, the timing of their meeting was wrong. It happened to coincide with the eldest daughter of the Xiao family getting married. In other words, the second master watched helplessly as his beloved got married. , but the groom is not himself."
