No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 353 Brothers Like Enemies

Xiao Hong was not locked in the dungeon of the Luo family, but in a small room in the corner of the courtyard where Luo Jinyan lived.

With Xiao Hong's skill and ability, it is as difficult as possible to escape from the Luo family.Ever since Luo Mingxiang got married, the Luo family's defense had already improved to a higher level, and it was even more difficult to save someone from the Luo family.

Of course, Luo Jinyan was not polite to Xiao Hong either, the room was empty, the doors and windows were closed and the light was dim.

Xiao Hong was tapped on the acupoints and casually threw it in. When Xiao Chen walked in, he was still sitting on the ground unable to move.

Originally seeing the door being opened, Xiao Hong raised his head and looked towards the door expectantly, only hoping that someone would come to save him.But when he saw Xiao Cheng, his expression changed, and he was stunned for a while before he realized that the person standing at the door was his own brother.

The two brothers looked at each other for a long time before Xiao Hong called "Big Brother" in a hoarse voice.

Xiao Cheng looked at him carefully, and walked into the room in a few steps.

Xiao Hong was a little anxious, and said, "Brother, are you here to pick me up? Get someone to let me go! I can't move anymore!"

Xiao Cheng was silent for a while, and said, "I can't take you out now."

Xiao Hong's originally agitated expression gradually froze. He had to raise his head to see the standing Xiao Cheng's face, "What do you mean? You came here to see my jokes?"

Xiao Cheng's expression changed slightly, and he looked at the young man sitting on the ground with complicated eyes.

The relationship between him and Xiao Hong has always been normal, but in his memory, this younger brother is still respectful to his elder brother, and he doesn't remember when he offended this younger brother.

But just at this moment, he had already seen clearly the resentment in Xiao Hong's eyes.

He didn't know whether he was resenting himself for not saving him, or resenting him as an elder brother, but at this moment Xiao Cheng really felt a little chilly.

Xiao Cheng asked, "What deal did you make with Khenpo?"

Xiao Hong looked away and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Xiao Cheng said: "The eldest son of the Luo family said that as long as you explain everything related to the people in southern Xinjiang, you can leave."

Xiao Hong sneered and said, "I have nothing to explain. Since you came to see my jokes, you can leave now that you have seen enough."

Xiao Cheng took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Do you think I'm just idle and bored to watch your jokes?"

"Isn't it?" Xiao Hong said with a sneer on his face.

"I think you have been spoiled by your mother in Yangxin these years. Now that the situation in Southern Xinjiang is uneasy, you make a deal with people from Southern Xinjiang? Do you think the Xiao family can protect you?"

Hearing his words, Xiao Hong felt a surge of anger welling up in his heart, and he couldn't control the dissatisfaction in his heart all these years, "I'm spoiled? That's right, I've always been in your hearts. Sensible? No matter how good my studies are or how talented I am, in the hearts of my grandfather and father, you will always be the hope of the Xiao family in the future, and I will always be a younger brother who wants to learn from you! What happened to the deal? Is it against the law? In Shangyong City, there is only Khenpo who is from southern Xinjiang? Luo Jinyan is so nosy, why doesn’t he arrest everyone who has connections with people from southern Xinjiang?”

Xiao Cheng didn't get angry, but just looked at Xiao Hong calmly and asked, "So what? Is this the reason for you to do these things?"

Xiao Hong sneered, as if he wanted to break the jar, and said, "So what? I did it on purpose, and ran away with my father's woman on purpose. So what? I'm not your young master Xiao." , everything is thorough and there is no mistake, it is a model for the entire Xiao family and the entire Xueyang Academy. Hypocrisy!"

Xiao Cheng said: "Since that's the case, why are you coming to the capital to find Miss Su's family again? Just take that woman and run far away. From then on, the people and affairs of Xiao's family will never bother you again."

Xiao Hong's expression changed, he stared at Xiao Cheng without speaking.

Xiao Cheng said: "The Su family didn't tell me anything, but you think I can't find out? You think you are the only smart person in the world? You don't even know how you got hurt, and you dare to talk to people in Shangyonghuang City? Playing tricks?"

Xiao Hong's face became even more ugly, and he heard endless ridicule from these words.

He is a person with very strong self-esteem, it's fine for others to mock him, but his elder brother, who has always hated and jealous in his heart, mocked him like this, and he couldn't stand it any longer.

Xiao Hong stared at Xiao Cheng with a ferocious and distorted expression.

"Xiao, Cheng!" Xiao Hong shouted viciously.

Xiao Cheng said: "I don't believe that in just a few days, you and the people from southern Xinjiang can have any great deal, explain the matter clearly, and I will take you away tomorrow. Father and mother will also arrive in Shangyong tomorrow, After retiring from the Su family, you go back to Yangxin to study hard, and within five years you are not allowed to step outside the Xiao family."

Xiao Hong naturally refused, "Why do you decide for me?!"

Xiao Cheng looked down at him and said: "Just because I am your elder brother, you can continue to hold on and see if the Luo family can detain you for a few days, or let mother go to see you in the prison."

Xiao Hong couldn't move his whole body except his head, even so he tried his best to raise his head and glared at Xiao Cheng, his face was full of hatred and jealousy.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Cheng sighed lightly.

Xiao Cheng's voice softened a little, and said lightly: "Whether you say it or not, when your parents come, you will go to Su's house to discuss the divorce. You and Ms. Su... I don't care about any grievances between you, I will come here Let's stop."

He studied poetry and books with his grandfather since he was a child, and almost lived in Xueyang Academy when he was a little older. Later, he was released as an official from the imperial examination in Beijing, and he didn't spend much time with this younger brother.

But he still remembered that Xiao Hong was very cute and cute when he was very young, and he didn't know how his family taught him to be like this.

Relying on his talent and learning, he thinks he is smart.

If it is true that he is scheming, he can't even scheming a little girl.

After all, it is his own younger brother, if he can still be corrected, Xiao Cheng will naturally not let him go.

Xiao Hong didn't answer, but looked at Xiao Cheng with cold eyes.

Of course he can no longer argue with the Su family anymore, Luo Jinyan ruined all his plans.

Originally, he still had the handle on Su Rui, but now he has lost it.

Such a thing is too bizarre, if there is no full evidence in hand, no one will believe it.In addition, he eloped with others before, if he said those things after the Su family divorced, outsiders would only take him as revenge.

Of course, the most important thing is...

Xiao Hong looked at Xiao Cheng in front of him with deep eyes.

He hates that disobedient woman Su Rui, but compared to Su Rui...

Xiao Cheng is the existence he hates the most!
Xiao Cheng persuaded him for a while, and he could see that he didn't listen at all, so he stopped doing useless work.

I plan to wait for my parents to arrive in the capital first, and then decide what to do after talking with them.

After Xiao Cheng left, the room returned to its original darkness and silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Hong suddenly raised his head and called for someone.

The door was opened from the outside, and Xiao Hong didn't care who was standing at the door, and said, "Tell Luo Jinyan, I'm recruiting."

"Recruited?" Luo Jinyan was a little surprised, he asked Xiao Cheng to meet Xiao Hong, and he didn't expect Xiao Cheng to make him speak.

Even though he only met Xiao Hong a few times, he could still feel the jealousy and resentment hidden in this young man.

The third son of the Xiao family, the famous Yangxin talented scholar, he is the only one who tramples others under his feet, so what can he be so jealous and resentful about?
Also, Xiao Hong's reaction when Xiao Cheng was mentioned in Nancheng Bingma Si had repeatedly demonstrated Xiao Hong's hatred for this brother.

Luo Jinyan stood up and said, "Then go and have a look."

Xiao Hong was taken to Luo Jinyan's study, looking at Luo Jinyan who was sitting in the main seat, Xiao Hong's expression was stern.

Luo Jinyan didn't care, but said lightly: "Young Master Xiao is willing to talk?"

Xiao Hong sneered and said, "Didn't Mr. Luo just want to know what kind of deal I made with Khenpo?"

Luo Jinyan nodded and said: "That's true, and... what is that little thing in Mr. Xiao's yard. You have to tell me too."

Xiao Hong raised his head slightly, and said proudly: "What else is there to do with people from southern Xinjiang? Naturally, it's for the poison they are good at."

Luo Jinyan was not surprised, but just asked: "Why do you trade with them? Khenpo is not short of money." A son who ran away from home, what else can he offer besides money?In addition, as far as he knows, Xiao Hong doesn't even have any money now.

Xiao Hong smiled and said, "Of course I have my chips."

Luo Jinyan said: "Young Master Xiao, I'm not just sitting here listening to your riddles."

The smile on Xiao Hong's face faded away, and he said coldly: "Khenpo wants the Nuanxiangyu passed down from our Xiao family's ancestors."

Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise and said, "A piece of jade? What does he want with that?"

Xiao Hong said impatiently: "How do I know what he is going to do? Anyway, he seems to want it very much. It is an ordinary piece of warm jade. It is nothing special or useful except that it is only passed on to the mistresses of the Xiao family."

Luo Jinyan lowered his eyes and pondered, as if he was considering the authenticity of Xiao Hong's words.

It took a while to hear Luo Jinyan ask: "Since it is the token of the mistress of the past, how can you guarantee that you can give it to him?"

Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and said, "Because that thing is in my hands now!"

Luo Jinyan looked at him calmly, but Xiao Hong saw a bit of distrust in his eyes.

Xiao Hongdao: "I said before, it's just an ordinary high-grade warm jade. I managed to secretly exchange it from my mother two years ago. Women can't wear that thing, and it's not a seal that needs to be used often. I found a counterfeit expert I re-carved a new one with warm jade of similar quality, but my mother never found out."

In fact, he didn't know what was his motivation for changing that piece of jade. Perhaps it was because one day he just heard his mother tell his father that he would formally pass that piece of jade to his sister-in-law when he came back?

Luo Jinyan asked: "How did Khenpo know that Nuanyu is in your hands?"

Xiao Hong said: "He doesn't know, I told him. He came to me originally, just to get some news."

Luo Jinyan nodded, believing his words, and continued to ask: "What did Khenpo give you?"

Xiao Hong said, "It's the jar you saw."

"There are only a few centipedes inside, what's the use? Who do you want to bite with centipedes?" Luo Jinyan asked.

Xiao Hong said: "Khenpo told me that those centipedes are non-poisonous after they grow up, and no one can bite them to death!"

A smile appeared on Luo Jinyan's face, "So, the third young master Xiao wanted to tell me that you bought a few worms from your family's heirloom jade pendant with Kanbula to keep them for fun? Do I look easy to deceive? "

A flash of anger flashed in Xiao Hong's eyes, and he said, "If you don't believe me, let someone investigate. That's what Khenpo told me. How can I know what will happen to the bug before it grows up?"

After he finished speaking, he paused for a while and continued: "Khenbula said that Nanjiang has a unique way of finding people, and he will help me find that bitch who escaped! After I capture the person back, I just need to give her the centipede to eat. She will never leave me!"

"Concentric Gu?" Luo Yi who was standing next to him was a little surprised, and then reminded Luo Jin: "My lord, the rumors about the Concentric Gu in Southern Border don't seem to be centipedes."

Of course it wasn't a centipede, and no matter whether the concentric Gu was real or not, it was quite difficult for a centipede to be eaten.Unless it is chopped or made into pills, powder, or soup, but if so, it should be made into medicine directly instead of selling bugs.

Xiao Hong said coldly: "What is the same heart Gu? Isn't it necessary for both of you to eat the same heart Gu? Khenpo only told me that after eating that, she will never be able to leave me, and I will not be affected in any way. That Bitch! For her...how dare she! How dare..."

Luo Jinyan lowered his eyes and said, "I see."

Xiao Hong glanced at him, and added, "I only know so much. If you still don't believe me, go and ask the Khenpo people yourself. Except for the things of the Xiao family, people like me have nothing to compare with." He makes deals, doesn't he?"

"You're right." Luo Jinyan nodded and said, "It's getting late, brother Ling will come to pick you up tomorrow morning."

Sending someone to take Xiao Hong down, Luo Yi frowned and said, "My lord, is what this man said credible?"

Luo Jinyan said indifferently: "It's not important, send someone to watch him."

Luo suddenly understood, the young master planned to let Xiao Hong go?
"Yes, young master." Luo nodded in response, thought for a while and said, "The Khenpo hides like a mouse, is it true that there is no need to search the whole city?"

Luo Jinyan shook his head and said, "No need, it would be troublesome to force Khenpo out. I also want to see what he wants to do."

Luo Yi was a little worried, "Will he..."

"No." Luo Jinyan said, "The Furukawa Department is indeed not weak, but it is not enough to provoke Dasheng. Now that the strong one offends the imperial court, it will not benefit him and will only make him an outcast."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

"Go." Luo Jinyan waved his hand to signal Luo Yi to retreat, and after a little thought, he ordered: "Send someone to the Prince Regent's Mansion to ask if Miss Qin has any results."

"Yes, son"

Watching Luo Yi go out, Luo Jinyan sat behind the desk and lowered his eyes slightly thinking.

Capture the escaped woman?Controlling her to never leave?

Who were those things prepared for? Did Xiao Hong really think he was a fool?
