Chapter 106
The banquet is coming to an end, and it's time for people.
Fu Xuan was led to drink a lot of wine by Xie Zhan whether it was on purpose or not, and after that, it didn't seem real to anyone.
Facing probing questions about her family background thrown by Mr. Liang from time to time, she clenched her fists tightly, her nails embedded in her flesh, and managed to stay awake and answer some questions.
Seeing that she was drunk, her eyes were clouded, her red lips were slightly parted, and she was leaning on the arm of the gentleman next to him charmingly, Jiang Qiao, who had been peeping at her since the beginning of the table, felt a wave of evil fire rushing around.
Such a young and tender "appetizer" has not been eaten yet, but it is actually about to leave, after all, I am a little unwilling.
Xie Zhan raised his eyes slightly from behind the wine glass, and what he saw was the faint desire in the eyes of the opposite person.
The more he looked at this kind of virtue, the more disgusting he became.
He licked his molars, raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp, and put the glass on the table with a "snap".
This sound was really loud, Shi Qing, who was waiting outside the pavilion, heard the sound and looked over.
He understood his young master's temper. He was still so impatient when the girl was leaning on his arm. Presumably, his patience with Jiang Qiao was exhausted after all.
Jiang Qiao was also frightened by the sudden movement, and looked up at "Zhou Yushi" in puzzlement.
I saw "Zhou Yushi" got up with his concubine in his arms, swayed his body, and said with pursed lips: "No, that's all? I... drank a little too much."
Oh, it was because I was drunk that my hand lost its weight.
Jiang Qiao understood.
He had been waiting for the banquet to end a long time ago, so he naturally responded with kindness.
Xie Zhan didn't take a step forward, he put his arm around Fuxuan, and pointed to the girl next to Mrs. Liang with the other. He shook his body again, and only said vaguely: "Fresh."
As if Jiang Qiao had finally got the right words, he cupped his hands and said, "Zhou Yushi will rest for a while, and the lower officials will arrange someone to take care of them."
Talking about sending off his niece so lightly, Xie Zhan raised his brows slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and laughed twice.
He bowed his waist and hugged Fuxuan horizontally. After turning around, the emotion in his eyes faded, and the corner of his mouth curled up ironically.
Shi Qing followed his steps.
Seeing his young master put Fuxuan into the carriage with Linglong waiting, after getting out of the carriage, he said to him: "The road to Jingzhou, the road to Bieshan may not be safe."
"My lord, you are alone..." Shi Qing hesitated.
Although he got the order, the main task was to protect the Fu girl, but after all, he never left the son's side for a day since he was a child, so he was really worried.
But Xie Zhan picked up his poisonous temper again, "Aren't the people in Dali Temple human?"
Shi Qing choked.
Is this the same?
Hey, anyway, the son is very skilled in martial arts, so he can protect the girl by himself so that he has no worries.
Hearing the whispered conversation outside the carriage, seeing that Xie Zhan was about to leave, Linglong lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked urgently in a low voice: "Mr. Xie, what should I do if my girl doesn't want to wait in Ruyang County?"
She couldn't be more aware of a girl's temper.
Don't you want to wait?
After waking up, he learned that he fell asleep after being given medicine today, and that he had agreed to act together, so Mr. Xie went by himself and kicked her out of the plan. He didn't know how to be angry.
Hearing Linglong's question, Xie Zhan's spine involuntarily shivered.
Don't you want to wait?
Then she can still have the ability to go back to Geyang County without knowing her life or death?
He thought so, and said so to Linglong.
Hearing these words, Linglong and Shi Qing glanced at each other, both were convinced by the "good words" of the noble son Xie Zhan.
It was clear that he cared very much in his heart, but his words were so ugly.
If you want to say why Xie Zhan is so arrogant, you can't blame him.
The Xie family is very powerful. Since he was a child, he wanted the wind to win the wind, and the rain to win the rain. Because he was very resourceful and talented at a young age, he was the best among all the Xie family's sons. The elders never underestimated him when they got along with him.
In this way, it is true that he has never suffered, and he has never seen people's faces.
Speaking of which, only this one in the carriage made him taste the bitterness of this world.
**
Xie Zhan left the carriage and walked into the dark night.
He had originally agreed with Fu Xuan that after today's banquet, Jiang Qiao would definitely do something, and he would take her with him when he went, but after much deliberation, he finally felt that this trip was dangerous and it would be more appropriate to send her out of Yuzhou in advance.
Speaking of which, this plan was not his temporary decision.
After the ninth day of the seventh lunar month, Fuxuan refused to let him enter the house at night, and left him to rest in the wing room next to the study, on the grounds that "my concubine is inconvenient to be pregnant, so there is no reason for the husband to share the same room."
However, the plan to talk to Mrs. Liang was disrupted the day before yesterday.
On July [-]th, when he was about to rest, Shi Qing came in and said that a girl was looking for him.
He subconsciously stepped up to find Fuxuan, but he saw another girl——Liang Shan at the door of the room.
It was the conversation that day that allowed him to get something important, and made him make up his mind to let Fu Xuan take it and go to a safe place to wait first——
"Zhou Yushi, I have something to say." Liang Shan said.
"Oh?" Xie Zhan raised his eyebrows and smiled, mocking her: "Mr. Jiang said you fell in love with me, but I haven't responded yet. Are you just taking the initiative?"
After he finished speaking, Liang Shan's eyes turned red.
Xie Zhan saw that she was holding back her weeping, looked around, and said stubbornly: "Can you come in and tell me?"
Xie Zhan was noncommittal, stood at the door for a while, and then turned sideways to let him in.
As soon as the door of the room was closed, Liang Shan knelt down in front of him and said straight to the point: "Jiang Qiao wants to use 'Charming Heart' to harm the little lady, I can help change the medicine so that he can't succeed."
Xie Zhan sat at the table calmly, tapped his fingers on the table casually, and looked at Liang Shan expressionlessly.
Liang Shan was confused by his calm and breezy appearance.
May I ask, in this world, who is really willing to watch their own woman being humiliated by others?
Liang Shan asked: "Aren't you surprised? The medicine 'Charming Heart' is an extremely powerful love potion and should not be taken."
Xie Zhan didn't talk about this topic, but asked: "What do you want?"
Liang Shan did not expect Xie Zhan to be so straightforward, but since she wanted something, she didn't hold back.
With red eyes, she gnashed her teeth sharply and said, "My father's life or death is unknown, but I know that it has something to do with Jiang Qiao's 'grass'. He killed my father. I want him to die!"
Xie Zhan chuckled, "Why do you think that I'm going to take the life of a sheriff just because of a "Charm Heart" transfer?"
"Would you like to watch Jiang Qiao bully the little madam?" Liang Shan asked puzzled.
Xie Zhan laughed again, "He has no chance."
Apart from resting at night, Fuxuan never left him, so even if Jiang Qiao wanted to harm Fuxuan, he had to get past him first.
The other party didn't answer every condition that was thrown out, Liang Shan couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Could it be that no one can kill him?
Just when she was about to despair, Xie Zhan said again: "It's okay to ask him to die. It depends on whether your reward is enough."
"what would you like?"
"I want the account books of the Liang family."
Xie Zhan didn't go around the corner, and continued to speak bluntly: "Miss Liang, since you have access to the matter of drug administration, and you can still appear here tonight, it must be that someone in Jiangfu acquiesced, right? In this way, you or 'she' will There's a way to get the ledger, right?"
Liang Shan didn't answer.
Xie Zhan said again: "The reason why you took the risk to find me, who doesn't know the details, is because your Liang family is desperate. In Geyang County, and even in Yuzhou, you can't escape Jiang Qiao's palm. Because..."
Xie Zhan paused for a moment, and then continued: "He said that there is no antidote to the poison."
Liang Shan had a fear of being seen through at a glance, she panicked: "How do you know? Who are you...?"
The corners of Xie Zhan's lips curled slightly, and he said without answering, "We have the same goal. Miss Liang just needs to tell me if you can do it."
Liang Shan asked, "If I can't do it..."
Xie Zhan interrupted: "It's okay, without the account books of the Liang family, your father can still testify."
Liang Shan stood up with a "swipe", took a step forward and approached Xie Zhan, glaring and said, "You caught him?"
Xie Zhan stopped tapping on the table, "I saved him. However, I can also kill him."
He is about to return to Jiankang City, how should Xie Zhan chase his wife?
