The ghost king and princess of Feng Qingtian

Chapter 192
Seeing the cheapskate's smile, Yi Chunxia who was pushed to the ground said angrily, "Is it funny to see me in such a mess?"

The cheapskate withdrew his smile and said, "I am your savior, so this is the second time I have saved you. Is this how you treat your savior?"

Yi Chunxia pursed her lips, but the tears still couldn't hold back.The miserly ghost saw her sitting on the ground with disheveled clothes, loose hair, red eyes, and the makeup on her face was stained by tears. She was really in a mess. Thinking about what happened to her as a weak woman just now, Unable to help feeling soft, he untied the burden on his back, took out his clothes and put them on her body, and helped her up.

After all, Yi Chunxia is a lady from a famous family, and her usual upbringing is also good. After calming down for a while, she calmed down and became a little embarrassed. She saluted the cheapskate and said, "Thank you General Qian for your help. I will tell my father when I go back. Thank you again.”

The cheapskate said indifferently: "It's nothing, it's just a little effort, but you, how can a woman be out alone at such a late hour?"

A trace of shame and indignation flashed across Yi Chunxia's face, but she still replied calmly: "Today is the princess of Prince Xuan's Mansion who invites all the ladies to enjoy the flowers. We were supposed to come back in the afternoon, but... the princess said that the evening scent The flowers are more beautiful and the fragrance is unique, so let's stay here and come back tomorrow morning. However, after arranging everyone's accommodation at night, they said that there is no room for me, so I must be squeezed together with a few maids. I don't want to be humiliated. So I took the servant girl and wanted to go back to the mansion. Who would have thought that when I got here, I met these two people."

After thinking about it for a while, the cheapskate realized that these official ladies were probably targeting Yi Chunxia on purpose, and the reason was most likely because Master Yi submitted a letter to abolish the official recommendation system and offended these aristocrats. They dared not do anything to Master Yi. He couldn't find the fault of Young Master Yi, so he took all his anger out on Miss Yi.It's just that King Xuan also participated in this matter, and why did these two people appear here by such a coincidence?
Facing the terrified Yi Chunxia, ​​the cheapskate couldn't help but said: "Don't associate with these people in the future, their father and brother are opposite to your family, and you won't have good fruit if you stay with them."

Yi Chunxia nodded, then shook her head and said, "Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if they treated me like this. It's just that I went to Prince Xuan's Mansion, and the princess treated me like this, so I don't understand. And I think she humiliated me. Just let me walk back by myself, why would I send someone to follow me, and still want to treat me..."

"You mean that these two people have followed you since Prince Xuan's Mansion? Are you sure?" The miserly ghost asked curiously.He felt that today's incident was a bit too coincidental. Although the law and order in Beijing cannot be said to be closed at night, there is a master in charge, and neither black nor white in the rivers and lakes come to cause trouble. Besides, those dudes who are causing trouble are either in the military camp or are arrested. The family is in control, so there hasn't been any vicious incidents in Beijing for a long time.Why did Miss Yi's family meet two villains so coincidentally when she was alone?
Yi Chunxia nodded and said: "Yes, I'm sure, this fat man has smoked a kind of spice called Longhuixiang. Although the fragrance is light, it can travel far along the wind. As soon as I leave the palace, I will I could smell it, but I thought the princess just wanted to humiliate me, but he didn't want me to have an accident on the road, so he secretly sent someone to escort me home, so I didn't pay much attention."

The cheapskate thought about it, and felt that it didn't make sense, but he couldn't explain what it was, so he just nodded and said to Yi Chunxia, ​​"Can you leave now? I'll take you home."

The cheapskate looked at the two people lying on the ground, as well as the dead maid. It was late at night, and the place was secluded, so no one would come. Let's wait for him to deal with them when he comes back.

Yi Chunxia nodded, and tightened her clothes, only to find that it was a black night clothes, looking at the cheapskate with a vigilant look in her eyes.

The cheapskate patted his forehead and said, "Women are really troublesome, don't you know how to distinguish between good and bad people? I can't say that I am a bad person even if I wear night clothes. Look at them, they are not good people in brocade clothes. Let me first Go, follow if you like, if you don't want to follow you, just stay here and wait until dawn when your family comes to you."

Yi Chunxia lowered her head and thought for a while, "I'll go with you, you are under the King of Ghosts, you can't be a bad person."

The cheapskate is speechless, I'm not a ghost king, I'm a bad guy, so I have a bad guy's face?It's really kind and unrewarding.

The cheapskate walked in front angrily, and Yi Chunxia followed behind. This place is not far from Yi's house, just two streets away. The cheapskate watched Yi Chunxia knock on the door of Yi's house and was taken in by someone. Returning at ease, but when he came to the alley again, the cheapskate broke out in a cold sweat. There was nothing in the alley, no dead people, no bloodstains, no two gangsters who were brought down, and no trace of anyone staying. Fifteen minutes ago, it was as if nothing had happened here, and what the cheapskate experienced just now was a hallucination.

The miserly ghost calmed down, he had been in the rivers and lakes for ten years, and he had seen a lot of bizarre things, so he didn't believe that he would have hallucinations. He could only say that someone was playing tricks, but this trickster was very clever.He came to the wall and wiped it lightly with his hands. The wall was wet. It was obvious that someone washed it with water just now. The place where the blood stains were originally on the ground was also wet. This was obviously a trace of someone cleaning it. The cheapskate felt relieved. , I'm sure he has met a clever opponent, but as long as he is a human being, he has the ability to find him out.

After Yi Chunxia returned home, she told her father and three elder brothers what had happened. The head of the Yi family and the three young masters of the Yi family were very angry, but they couldn't figure out why this matter had something to do with King Xuan. Patriarch Yi can only say that he will check the situation the next day when he goes to court.Of course, General Qian and the others would also come to the door to thank General Qian for his help.

It was only early the next morning that King Xuan came to the door with a gift to apologize. King Xuan said that his daughter was instigated by a few official ladies who got along well on weekdays, so she was so rude to Miss Yi. After what she did, she was severely scolded, and she was locked up in the Buddhist hall and punished to kneel.And he hoped that the Yi family would forgive him for being lax as a goddaughter, and also gave Yi Chunxia a lot of good things.

King Xuan's attitude was very sincere, and the reasons he said were impeccable. In addition, "Miss Yi has returned safely", the anger of the Yi family dissipated no matter how great they were.

This incident can be said to have passed without a trace. The Yi family was thinking about Yi Chunxia's fame and did not want her to hear the news of her being humiliated at night. Prince Xuan's mansion also did not want the reputation of the princess bullying the officials' children. Therefore, when Everyone who happened to the incident shut their mouths, and it was as if nothing had happened.

After Bai Ziyu came down to court, he dragged Master Qin to talk for a long time, and then the two found a teahouse to sit down and talk in detail, which didn't end until evening.Bai Ziyu admired the knowledge and demeanor of the Bachelor of Qin University very much.He asked Master Qin for advice about the imperial examination, mainly hoping that Master Qin could help Yun Yuhong, but he didn't expect Master Qin to agree without hesitation, and he didn't make any excuses because his family's children couldn't take the route of recommending officials. Or dissatisfied, instead, he explained to Bai Ziyu in detail the things to pay attention to in the imperial examination.

When Bai Ziyu left, he came back with a full load, and when Master Qin left, he was also full of ambition.He walked home quickly, but his mind was constantly circling the image of him being one of the examiners, assisting the ghost king to complete the scientific examination errands, and then being gradually reused by Qianzong and the ghost king, and the Qin family's prosperity day by day.

Master Qin thought he had worked hard all his life. Although he couldn't say how profound his knowledge was, he was definitely not inferior to Master Zhou.But he was an official in the same dynasty as Zhou Dashi and had the same rank, but he was always a head shorter than Zhou Dashi.In the past, he was a powerful minister, and he could only endure the anger, but now Qianzong has regained most of the real power, not to mention, he also has a princess who can command troops and fight. The throne can be said to be secure, and the emperor undoubtedly hates it After leaving the Zhou family, it means that it is his turn for the Qin family to have a bright future.

When Patriarch Qin returned home, Mrs. Qin asked him to change clothes for dinner. Master Qin came to the main courtyard to have dinner with his family soon after a happy event.At the dinner table, he saw the unlucky ghost sitting at the female family's table just eating with his head down, his expression was very ugly, and he couldn't help saying to Qin Yang: "Is there something wrong between you young couple?"

Qin Yang looked at the unlucky ghost, and was about to say no when Mrs. Qin interjected, "Why, she is like that all day long, as if someone has pissed her off. .”

The hapless ghost lowered his head even lower.

Patriarch Qin frowned, but it was difficult to say anything at the dinner table, especially in front of these juniors, but the original joy in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Finally, the whole family finished their meal, and the juniors all left by themselves, and then Patriarch Qin said to Mrs. Qin, "What's going on? She used to be the person next to the ghost king, and she's a new wife. How could you act like that in public? Tell her."

Mrs. Qin said angrily: "When I mention her, I will get angry. Yang'er is such a good child, why did he find such a daughter-in-law? She wants to have looks but no looks, no family background, no talent to learn, what do I think? Pleasing to the eye."

Patriarch Qin also said angrily: "She is not good in appearance, but why has no family background? She is backed by the eldest princess. She has strong martial arts skills, but she has a lot of military exploits."

Qin Fu curled his lips and said: "I want a daughter-in-law, not a general. Besides, what's the use of her getting close to the ghost king, who is on the side of abolishing the system of recommending officials. It will be very difficult for my descendants of the Qin family to become officials in the future. Bei, even Yang'er has to take the exam this time, thinking about it makes me worry, what do you think if he fails the exam?"
