Chapter 47 What are you going to do to my wife?
Chapter 47 What are you going to do to my wife?
There were many people taking shelter from the rain on the corridor. When Cui Ying looked back, she saw a couple beside her. The woman's belly was swollen. The man held her in his arms to shield her from the rain that spilled in.
Cui Ying looked at this scene with a smile on her face, and then turned her head. Chu Yan held her hand and noticed the way she looked at the couple just now.
Sometimes, a plain and peaceful life is the most rare thing here.
"Go in and rest. I'm afraid it won't stop raining for a while."
Chu Yan pulled her into the hall, where Guanyin Bodhisattva was enshrined. There were several chairs inside. Chu Yan asked her to sit down. He approached her and said, "There is someone outside, let me go and take a look."
Cui Ying raised her head, and his lips brushed against her ears, causing some itch.
Chu Yan chuckled, reached out and touched her head and left.
There were not that many people taking shelter from the rain in the hall. Some people went to other halls. The pregnant woman just now was sitting next to Cui Ying.
She looked at the gentle and affectionate way Chu Yan treated her and said with a smile: "Your husband is really nice to you. Judging from your accent, he is not from Guanzhou."
The woman's hand fell on her belly. Cui Ying nodded and replied, "Come to Guanzhou to find your relatives."
"Why do you think of coming here to look for relatives at this time? Guanzhou City is not so peaceful now."
Guanzhou was not a rich place to begin with, but now that something like this has happened, the disaster relief food provided by the court has not been allocated, and everything in the city has risen with the tide.
I don’t know how long it can last. If it continues like this, I’m afraid the city will also be in chaos.
She sighed, and then changed the subject: "My name is Wan Niang, and my family lives next to the Marriage Temple. I see that you have a good face. We are destined to meet each other. If you have time, you can come to our house for tea."
Cui Ying had already taken off her power fence when she knelt down at the Marriage Temple. Her appearance was already eye-catching, but luckily she didn't raise her eyes during the whole journey, so no one noticed her.
Now sitting in the hall dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva, only a strand of hair hanging down covered half of her face. When Wan Niang just turned her head to look at her, she saw her appearance.
The girl just sat there, with her eyebrows slightly curved and a slight smile on her lips. She really looked like the goddess Guanyin Bodhisattva she was worshiping, with a look of compassion and love on her face.
"Okay, thank you Wan Niang. My name is Cui Ying."
Cui Ying reported her name, Wan Niang nodded, and the two chatted. From Wan Niang's words, Cui Ying also understood the current situation in Guanzhou.
The prefect of Guanzhou was named Chang Wenting, who was more lustful and greedy than Cui Yunliang. Wan Niang said that Chang Wenting had a beauty temple on the outskirts of Guanzhou.
As the name suggests, it is a place where all kinds of beauties are imprisoned. He compared himself to Cao Gong and built this 'Bronze Bird Terrace' and lived a luxurious life.
A few years ago, after the dam first built in Guanzhou was washed away by water, the imperial court sent people to rebuild the dam and allocated a lot of money.
However, the person responsible for supervising the construction was the most upright person, and Chang Wenting could not get any profit from it.
Wan Niang thought that the dam would be very solid, but she didn't expect that it was just like paper. Even the foundation of the old dam was washed away. Water from the Longjiang River poured down, causing the downstream villages to be submerged.
"These officials, well, forget it."
Wan Niang shook her head helplessly. She was just an ordinary citizen, so what could she say.
Cui Ying heard her dissatisfaction from her words. Corrupt officials have existed since ancient times, but she didn't expect that Chang Wenting would not give these people any way to survive.
"everything will get better."
She expressed relief that when Chu Yan came to Guanzhou, he would not continue to let this matter go unchecked. Although she always said that Chu Yan was a madman, there were some things that a madman was most suitable to do.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a noise coming from outside.
"Search for me. If anyone resists, shoot without mercy!"
The vicious voice of the officer came, Cui Ying stood up, and Wan Niang's husband also came up to protect Wan Niang. The exclamation came, and Cui Ying felt something bad. She put the power fence on, but before she could put it on, the power fence in her hand was picked away with a knife.
"Oh, this little lady is really beautiful and fragrant."
The officer's voice was greasy and vulgar, and the look he looked at Cui Ying was even more disgusting and uncomfortable.
He reached out to touch Cui Ying's face, but Cui Ying stepped back to avoid it. The officer's eyes immediately became fierce: "Shameless!"
"What are you going to do to my wife?"
Chu Yan was holding an oil-paper umbrella with rainwater still on it. He turned his wrist and the officer's arm was broken by him. He fell to his knees and wailed in pain.
Cui Ying saw the anger in Chu Yan's eyes, and he really had murderous intentions.
Suddenly, all the officials present pointed their knives at Chu Yan. Cui Ying stepped forward and wrapped her hand around Chu Yan's hand holding the umbrella handle: "Husband."
Hearing this, Chu Yan turned his head. He retracted his hand and took her into his arms: "I'm here."
"You, why are you still standing there, why don't you take him down for me!"
The officer whose arm was broken by Chu Yan was kneeling on the ground, crying and howling. After the other officers took one look at him, they all stepped forward to restrain Chu Yan.
"Jinyiwei is handling the case!"
Xiao Fengan's voice came from outside the palace. He was wearing a flying fish suit, and his embroidered spring knife fell on the neck of the officer.
"Who are you arresting? Why don't you tell me about it?"
Behind the man were several guards in uniform, who came forward to stop the group of officials. Cui Ying raised her eyes, but her eyes were directed at Cui Xu who was standing next to Xiao Fengan.
We haven't seen him for a long time, and he seems to have not changed at all, but there are many different things in his eyes.
Xiao Fengan asked people to take these officials away. Seeing this, other people in the palace also slipped out and did not dare to stay here. For a while, only a few of them were left inside.
"Wei Chen has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Cui Xu saluted respectfully, Chu Yan hummed, but his eyes fell on Cui Ying's face.
"Yingying, do you have something to tell your brother?"
He held Cui Ying's waist and said meaningful words. Xiao Fengan smiled calmly. He had never seen His Highness look jealous before.
Cui Ying could only lean in his arms. Before Cui Ying could speak, Cui Xu said first: "No need, Your Highness, there are many things in Guanzhou. I came here this time to tell His Highness that the dam was being built and that I knew about it." The migrant workers were all arrested by Chang Wenting."
"Tomorrow he will entertain Mr. Wei in his mansion. I think it will be a Hongmen Banquet."
"By the way, the Minister of Civil Affairs in the DPRK is Chang Wenting's brother-in-law."
After Cui Xu finished speaking, he left without even looking at Cui Ying, but Chu Yan noticed that his hand hanging on one side was trembling.
Cui Xu didn't dare to stop as he walked out of the palace, holding an umbrella and leaving. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions and would cause trouble for Yingying again. He had already harmed her all her life and could not embarrass her anymore.
But seeing her leaning in the prince's arms, he felt that his heart was about to be torn into pieces.
The word "brother" is a shackle and a gap that is difficult to cross in this life. It traps him and harms her.
Chu Yan: Yingying want to talk to your brother? (Gu Ke is really a generous man. In fact, he didn’t let go of his hand at all. He must be stingy.)
