Chapter 79
"Yuyu..." Li Tai called softly, and slowly bent down, approaching her eyebrows, her lips...
Zhuxiang ran after the little thief for a while, and the speed of the little thief was extremely fast.
She couldn't catch up.
She looked back and found that she had already left Genting Casino by a long distance.
Even if the money bag contained things from the family, she couldn't leave the lady behind for too long, right?
No matter how important the things in the mansion are, the big deal is to report to Jingzhao Mansion that the safety of the lady is the most important thing.
Zhuxiang stopped and turned back the way she had come and gone.
Seeing that she stopped chasing her, the little thief stopped, and shouted at her, "You don't want the purse, but it's mine!"
Zhuxiang felt bad, she didn't even turn her head, and her steps became faster and faster.
But at this moment, a few tall and thick men suddenly jumped out from the side of the road.
Several people still held sticks and mallets in their hands and other things.
Zhu Xiang's complexion froze.
Those people have already rushed forward.
Zhuxiang was blocked in the alley.
These people are not weak in skill, but they are so entangled with her that she can't hold her back.
With her own strength, she could barely avoid a big loss in their hands, but she was entangled to death by them.
Finished!
It was only now that Zhuxiang realized that she must have been caught in a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain!
I don't know what happened to the lady.
But after all, Princess Nanping is here, Princess Nanping will take good care of her, right?
As soon as Zhuxiang was distracted, she was hit hard on the shoulder.
She snorted, her left shoulder hurt so much that she couldn't use her strength, and she quickly lost the wind.
I ate a few more sticks on my body.
She opened her mouth to call for help, but the alley was deep and there were high walls on both sides, so I don't know how far her voice could travel?
People around her saw her screaming loudly.
A man was also allocated to block the entrance of the alley to watch the wind.
Zhuxiang felt despair in her heart.
Just at this time, Liao Changsheng followed General Jing and rode through the alley.
"Did the general hear it?" Liao Changsheng pricked up his ears, as if he had heard something.
Jing Yannian had a sullen face, still thinking about the woman in the other courtyard who made him worry.
"The soldiers and horses of the five cities are too tired. In Chang'an, there are women calling for help in broad daylight?" Liao Changsheng chuckled, "The commander of the soldiers and horses of the five cities was changed only a few months ago. It’s not hot yet, so I’m afraid it’s…”
"Go and have a look." Jing Yannian stopped his horse.
"Does the general want to meddle in this business?" Liao Changsheng asked.
Jing Yannian's face was sullen, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, "What kind of thing is bullying a woman in broad daylight?"
Liao Changsheng immediately bowed his hands to accept the order, flew off the horse, and went to the alley in search of the sound.
The strong man standing guard at the entrance of the alley immediately stretched out his hand to block it, "Don't meddle in your own business!"
Liao Changsheng snorted disdainfully, "Don't be in charge."
"Hey, you can't understand human language? I told you, don't meddle in other people's business, or you won't be able to eat and walk around!" Seeing that he didn't leave, the strong man shook the stick in his hand.
Liao Changsheng glanced at him and turned around as if to go back.
The strong man sneered, but he was not on his guard, Liao Changsheng suddenly turned his head and kicked straight at his forehead.
The strong man wanted to block it, but it was too late, and was kicked on the temple by Liao Changsheng.
His eyes darkened and he fell to the ground.
Liao Changsheng walked quickly and jumped into the alley.
The sound of fighting in the alley was getting closer.
But the woman's voice for help became smaller and smaller.
Liao Changsheng frowned and walked faster.
When he saw the small figure surrounded by several strong men, he was stunned for a moment.
"Bamboo Fragrance?" Liao Changsheng shouted and flew forward.
"There are really people who are not afraid of things!" Seeing that someone was helping, the strong men immediately turned around and besieged Liao Changsheng.
Zhuxiang was injured, her eye socket was broken by a heavy punch, blood was oozing from the corner of her eye, and the corner of her mouth was blue and bloody.
"Liao Suwei, leave me alone, go quickly! Yunding Casino, the lady is in danger!" Zhuxiang yelled.
Startled, Liao Changsheng flew forward and kicked the strong man in front of him so that he fell on his back.
He turned over and grabbed Zhuxiang's shoulder, leaped forward, leaving several strong men behind.
Those strong men immediately chased after them.
Liao Changsheng dragged her and ran out of the alley sullenly.
Finally, they ran out of the alley before several strong men caught up with them.
Jing Yannian was riding a horse, frowning and looking this way.
"Why are you in such a mess?" He asked Liao Changsheng.
After seeing that the person rescued by Liao Changsheng was actually Zhuxiang, his expression changed immediately, "Zhuxiang?! Why are you here? Where's Madam?"
"Miss, in... Yunding Casino, hurry up!" Zhuxiang's breath was unsteady.
Liao Changsheng grabbed her and flew onto the horse.
Zhuxiang was riding in front of him, the horse jolted violently, Zhuxiang almost fell off the horse.
Liao Changsheng pressed Zhuxiang into his arms, and with a sound of "drive--", he chased after Jing Yannian's horse.
Jing Yannian's horse almost flew up.
Run all the way.
Outside Yunding Casino, he jumped off the horse without reining in his horse.
When Liao Changsheng rushed to the outside of Yunding Casino with Zhuxiang, he had already rushed into the casino.
"On the second floor, Tianzi No. [-] room." Zhuxiang shouted.
Liao Changsheng hugged her and got off the horse.
As soon as he let go, Zhuxiang fell to the ground.
Liao Changsheng hurriedly picked her up again, "What's going on?"
Zhuxiang shook her head, pointed inside, and signaled him to go in first.
Liao Changsheng supported her, and when he rushed into Yunding Casino, Jing Yannian was already standing on the second floor of the casino, outside the private room booked by Princess Nanping.
The door of the private room was closed tightly, and there was no sound inside.
Liao Changsheng and Zhuxiang stood at the end of the corridor, their faces were a little nervous and frozen.
Jing Yannian knocked on the door, but no one answered.
He put his hand on the door and pushed hard.
The door is wide open.
Zhuxiang hurried forward, but Liao Changsheng didn't keep up with her, she staggered and fell to the ground.
Before Liao Changsheng could help her, she quickly stood up against the wall and stumbled to the door of the private room.
On the ground in the private room, there are plum and chrysanthemum lying down.
The window was wide open, but there was no sign of Xiao Yuzhuo.
"Where's Madam?" Liao Changsheng, who was chasing after him, asked hesitantly.
Zhuxiang's face was pale and without color.
Seeing that something was wrong, the errand of Yunding Gambling also ran over in a panic. Seeing the situation in the room, the errand was also startled.
"Drop the Yulin Army and surround Yunding Casino." Jing Yannian ordered Liao Changsheng.
The kid panicked when he heard it, and hurried to inform the gambling shop manager.
"Wake them up." Jing Yannian's complexion could no longer be described as dark and ugly.
Zhu Xiang entered the door, half squatted and half knelt beside Ju Xiang, patting Ju Xiang's face, "Wake up, Ju Xiang, wake up?"
After shouting for a while, he pinched people again and slapped his face again.
Ju Xiang finally opened her eyes slowly, "Not good, lady!"
"Where's the lady?" Zhu Xiang immediately grabbed her collar and asked.
Ju Xiang got up on the ground and looked back.
But he only saw Jing Yannian with a gloomy face, and Xiao Yuzhuo was nowhere to be seen in the private room.
"No, I don't know, a servant girl said... that you were entangled and couldn't come back, and before she finished speaking, she moved her hands towards Mei Xiang and me." Ju Xiang turned over and got up, her face tensed, she frowned and thought about it, "I didn't know later, did she take the lady away?"
The manager of Yunding Casino came rushing over.
"Hey, it turned out to be General Jing. What happened? Our Yunding casino operates according to the law and abides by the court rules. There is absolutely no..."
"The people in the private room are missing, aren't you Yunding Casino responsible?" Jing Yannian interrupted him in a deep voice.
The steward was taken aback by his cold tone, glanced left and right, and asked Xiaoer, "What's going on, who was lost?"
"Where's my wife?" Zhu Xiang shouted.
Ju Xiang squatted down and woke up Mei Xiang who was on the ground.
The butler heard Xiao Er say a few words, vaguely understood what happened, and quickly cupped his hands and said to Jing Yannian: "Don't worry, General Jing, you can't find him in our gambling shop, our gambling shop will definitely not shirk responsibility." .Now finding someone is the top priority, not the time to pursue responsibility. I will call Xiaoer over to ask, see who saw what, and I can always find some clues."
Jing Yannian's chest rose and fell.
Find a clue?
Everyone is gone, tell him now, ask them one by one, and then find some clues?
When they asked for clues, Xiao Yuzhuo might have...
"What is this?" Zhu Xiang pointed to some yellow-white powder sitting on the edge of the couch, and said in surprise.
Ju Xiang quickly squatted down, dipped a little powder with her fingers, put it under her nose and sniffed it, her brows immediately frowned.
Unsure of herself, she took another sip and spat it out with a "yuck".
Jing Yannian's cold eyes fell on her face.
"What is it?" Mei Xiang, who was still a little confused, asked anxiously.
Ju Xiang glanced at Jing Yannian anxiously, her voice couldn't be lower, "It's... the aphrodisiac..."
Jing Yannian's snort became heavier, and his knuckles creaked from being pinched.
Ju Xiang frowned even tighter, she took a step closer to Jing Yannian, and said in a low voice: "My lady is pregnant now, and the aphrodisiac will promote the contractions... If it can't be relieved in time... I'm afraid the baby will be lost." .”
Jing Yannian raised his hand and slapped the door frame.
The door frame cracked.
Liao Changsheng quickly mobilized his troops and surrounded the entire Yunding Casino.
Jing Yannian snorted coldly, "Everyone is not allowed to enter or leave the gambling house, search one by one."
The steward was taken aback, he searched nowhere, this is a gambling house, and it is the most elegant gambling house in Chang'an City.
The people who play here are either the children of the gentry, or the celebrities of the aristocratic family.
Whoever is offended will be detrimental to Genting Casino.
Whether people put the account on General Jing or Yunding Gambling House, it will affect the gambling house's opening for business in the future.
"General, don't be angry, you can't search! Since something happened, he must not be in the casino right now! You should look for it elsewhere!" The steward clapped his hands and said hurriedly, "You are looking for it in the casino. Isn't it a waste of time?"
"Then tell me, where is he? Where can I find him?" Jing Yannian grabbed the man in charge by the collar.
He raised his hand sharply and pushed.
The steward sat down on the ground.
How did he know where to look for it?Anyway, it shouldn't alarm the other people in the casino.
"You are looking for someone with such a big fanfare, if... something is wrong and someone sees it, that person will be found, and the reputation will be ruined, right?" The manager put all his eggs in one basket, closed his eyes and said desperately .
Jing Yannian became even angrier immediately, and was about to slap the steward to death with one slap.
But suddenly someone rushed up to the second floor and rushed straight to Jing Yannian.
"General, tell the general to know, ma'am, she..." The man cupped his hands, looking anxious, but hesitated to speak.
Jing Yannian raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were bloodshot, "What's the matter, madam?"
He recognized this person as the nurse he sent to another courtyard to give to Xiao Yuzhuo.
The nurse hurriedly said, "Madam has returned to the other courtyard, the general should go back and have a look!"
Those words stunned everyone present.
Xiao Yuzhuo inexplicably disappeared from Yunding Gambling House, and now he returned to another courtyard inexplicably?
Jing Yannian pushed the gambling house manager away, and rushed downstairs in stride.
He threw all the people in the gambling house, beat the horses by himself, and went straight to the other courtyard.
Zhu Xiang grabbed the collar of the nurse, "What's the matter, lady? Huh?"
The nurse shook his head again and again and refused to say anything.
"Don't ask him, hurry back and talk about it!" Ju Xiang said in a deep voice.
Jing Yannian rushed back to the other courtyard first.
The atmosphere in the other courtyard was a bit weird, Xiao Yuzhuo's dowry was guarding the gate of the inner courtyard.
Seeing Jing Yannian, he stretched out his hand to stop him, refusing to let Jing Yannian in.
Jing Yannian was already very anxious, and seeing this made him even more angry.
How could they stop him, he flew and kicked down several servants who knew kung fu.
Those who don't know kung fu, or don't have very good kung fu, are even worse.
He went on a rampage all the way, almost entering the inner courtyard.
But in the inner courtyard, he stopped in his tracks.
Seeing the person standing in front of the bedroom door, the blood in his whole body seemed to freeze instantly.
Wei Ziwu stood with his back straight, like a door god, standing under the porch.
When Jing Yannian saw him, he just looked up and saw Jing Yannian.
He cupped his hands and said, "General Jing..."
Before he finished speaking, Jing Yannian's punching wind had already forced his face.
"Step aside!"
Jing Yannian's face was dark and terrifying, and his fist style was even more frightening than his face.
Wei Ziwu dodged sideways, but blocked the door, "You can't go in."
These words made Jing Yannian very angry.
He hit him with a punch faster than a punch.
Wei Ziwu didn't even have a chance to speak again, so he forced him to retreat step by step.
Thinking of the last time, he broke his brother's guqin without saying a word, Wei Ziwu also became angry.
He seemed to want to explain something, but now he pursed his lips tightly, without saying a word, and became ruthless in his moves.
The two fought fiercely in the courtyard.
Liao Changsheng came after him with the Habayashi army.
"Get out!" Wei Ziwu raised his voice.
Liao Changsheng saw that someone dared to fight the general, so he would not listen to him.
Wei Ziwu looked at Jing Yannian, "If you tell your people to rush in, I'm afraid you will regret it!"
Jing Yannian's moves became more and more fierce, but Ju Xiang's words suddenly rang in his ears, "It's an aphrodisiac..."
Wei Ziwu stood guard outside her bedroom and did not allow him to enter...
What will it be like inside?
Jing Yannian only felt a mouthful of blood, and rushed forward immediately.
He slapped Wei Ziwu's chest fiercely.
Wei Ziwu was shocked by him and backed up a few steps, spat out a mouthful of blood, but he still had a smile on his face, "Why don't you ask your people to rush in and have a look?"
"Get out." Jing Yannian ordered in a deep voice.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Liao Changsheng immediately waved his hands and told the Habayashi army to retreat.
He himself retreated in a panic.
The yard fell silent for a moment.
Jing Yannian raised his foot and walked towards the bedroom.
Who knows that Wei Ziwu blocked it again, "I didn't say you can go in, did I?"
Jing Yannian glanced at him coldly, his eyes were blood red, "Do I need your permission to go in?"
Before he finished speaking, he raised his foot and kicked Wei Ziwu.
Wei Ziwu wanted to dodge, but he received a palm on his chest, which blocked his breath and his movements were not so smooth.
He was kicked again, and his face was even more embarrassed.
But he pounced forward and grabbed Jing Yannian's robe tightly, "You can't go in now! My brother's good deed has been ruined, how can I be worthy of my brother?"
Wei Ziwu seemed to be angry with him on purpose.
Jing Yannian originally didn't want to be influenced by him, but he could hear the deliberateness in his voice, and also saw the treachery on his face.
But hearing these words in his ears, he couldn't restrain the anger gushing out of his chest at all.
He kicked Wei Ziwu violently, raised his hand and punched Wei Ziwu hard.
Wei Ziwu's face turned pale in an instant, and the blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, the bedroom door creaked open.
Only then did Wei Ziwu heave a sigh of relief, and let go of his hand, "Brother, if I don't come out, I'm going to die outside."
He rolled his eyes and lay down on the ground in the courtyard.
Jing Yannian looked at the opened door of the bedroom with a dark face.
It wasn't Liang Sheng who came out first.
It was someone he never thought of, Li Tai.
"King Yue?" Jing Yannian didn't even have the courtesy, and looked at Li Tai coldly, with a knife in his suspicious eyes, wishing he could be delayed.
Li Tai's complexion was not good either, he stepped out the door and said in a deep voice, "She and the child are fine, go and have a look."
Jing Yannian remembered what Ju Xiang said in Yunding Casino.
She said that aphrodisiacs will cause uterine contractions, and if they are not relieved in time, the child will surely die.
Jing Yannian couldn't care less immediately, and didn't have time to ask, why did he appear here?How could he come out of Xiao Yuzhuo's bedroom?
He strode in immediately and almost collided with Liang Sheng who was about to go out.
Liang Sheng took a step back, bowed his hands, and made way for him.
Jing Yannian was breathing heavily, and he just wanted to strangle the two men who appeared in Xiao Yuzhuo's bedroom immediately.
He raised his eyes and looked in, and saw Xiao Yuzhuo was lying on the imperial concubine's couch, his face was not pretty, but his clothes were neat and intact, he was slightly relieved.
Jing Yannian stepped closer to Xiao Yuzhuo.
Liang Sheng walked out without saying a word.
There seemed to be a faint fragrance of medicine in the room, and Jing Yannian's wheezing was only heard quietly.
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and didn't look at him.
Jing Yannian was sitting next to her, with a stern aura as if he had just returned from killing someone on the battlefield.
Neither of them spoke.
The situation seemed a little awkward, so that neither of them knew what to say.
"I……"
"you……"
After a long silence, the two spoke together again.
Xiao Yuzhuo curled his lips, "You go ahead."
Jing Yannian took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the roiling anger in his heart, "You are startled."
Xiao Yuzhuo thought a lot, but he never expected that he would say this in the first sentence.
She looked up in astonishment, and looked at him in disbelief, "What did you say?"
Jing Yannian's deep gaze fell on her face scorchingly.
His eyes were introverted, like a bottomless deep pool, surrounded by blood-red waves, showing how anxious and anxious he was during the time she disappeared.
"I'm fine, and the child is fine." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, the others really didn't know what to say.
"My lady! My lady!" Several servant girls hurried back.
They were worried, knowing that Jing Yannian was inside, they didn't dare to rush in, so they could only call anxiously outside.
"Come in." Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at Jing Yannian and said.
Jing Yannian sat up straight.
Mei Xiang rushed to the front.
Zhuxiang, who usually has the most nimble hands and feet, has fallen behind.
She walked with a slight limp.
When Mei Xiang saw her, two lines of tears came down, "Lady, you scared the servants to death."
Xiao Yuzhuo laughed, "I'm fine."
Looking at her heartless smile, Jing Yannian felt a sharp pain in his head.
"Chrysanthemum fragrance." Jing Yannian said.
Ju Xiang hurried forward, knelt down beside the imperial concubine's couch, and put her hand on Xiao Yuzhuo's wrist.
Concentrate on the diagnosis for a while.
Ju Xiang raised her eyebrows, "The pulse condition is stable, the lady was hit earlier... aphrodisiac, how is it..."
Before she finished speaking, she felt that the room was much colder in an instant.
Mei Xiang, who was kneeling beside her, couldn't help shivering.
Ju Xiang glanced at Jing Yannian in fear, pursed her lips and dared not ask any more questions.
Xiao Yuzhuo gave Jing Yannian a blank look, and said casually, "Fortunately, Mr. Liang is here."
Jing Yannian snorted.
"Mr. Liang knows medical skills?" Ju Xiang blurted out immediately.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't make a sound.
The smell of medicine in the room is very obvious.
"The lady is frightened, can the servant cook some soothing soup for the lady?" Ju Xiang whispered.
Jing Yannian looked down at Ju Xiang, "Is Madam okay?"
Ju Xiang quickly lowered her head, "Yes, Madam's pulse is stable, and the baby in her belly is also safe, General, please rest assured."
Xiao Yuzhuo sat up, "Thank you General for your concern, since my child and I are fine, please let the General go, I still have something to do."
Jing Yannian raised his thick eyebrows, "Do you have anything else to do? What else do you need to do?"
This look, as if wishing to eat her.
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted slightly, "I don't need to report to the general one by one if I have anything to do? General, don't forget..."
It's irrelevant to say what you want to say when you see her.
Jing Yannian got up abruptly, "I won't listen. I'm not going anywhere today, I'm here."
"Oh, Juxiang, I have a headache." Xiao Yuzhuo immediately laid down on his head, "It hurts when I see people."
Jing Yannian frowned at her.
Ju Xiang whispered: "Lang Jun, my lady was just startled, so let her go..."
She spoke in a very low voice, relying on her medical skills to dare to say such a sentence.
After finishing speaking, she quickly lowered her head.
Mei Xiang and Zhu Xiang, who had been silent all this time, both sweated for her.
Jing Yannian took another look at Xiao Yuzhuo before turning around and leaving the room.
Unexpectedly, the maid outside the door said, those three men haven't left yet.
At this time, he was waiting outside the yard.
With a serious face, Jing Yannian stepped out of the courtyard door.
Sure enough, he saw Li Taizheng and Liang Sheng whispering something.
Wei Ziwu was on the side, leaning against a jujube tree with his back, and cried out when he saw him.
Li Tai and Liang Sheng also looked up at him.
Liang Sheng bowed his hands in salute.
Jing Yannian was too lazy to greet the King of Yue.
Li Tai didn't care, "Since the general has seen that she's fine, I'm leaving now."
Jing Yannian sneered, "If His Highness the King of Yue doesn't give me an explanation, are you going to leave?"
Li Tai frowned slightly.
Liang Sheng seemed to want to say something, but seeing the faces of the two of them, he pursed his lips.
Wei Ziwu was on the side, grinning, but Jing Yannian hit hard, his whole body hurt when he smiled like this, and he couldn't help gasping.
It was so embarrassing for the four of them to stand here like this.
The afternoon sun in autumn fell on the yard and on the jujube tree, silently.
"Shopkeeper Liang, my lady invites you to come over." The little maid ran out from the inner courtyard and said.
Such a word that broke the silence made Jing Yannian's face even uglier.
As soon as she drove him away, she asked Mr. Liang to come forward again? !
Was this done on purpose for him to see?
His hand hanging by his side creaked.
Wei Ziwu immediately held Zao Shu and stood up straight, saying: "My brother is Xiao Niangzi's powerful treasurer, if you hurt my brother, Xiao Niangzi will definitely not spare you!"
This is adding salt to his wounds!
Jing Yannian took a deep breath and raised his leg violently.
bang.
He didn't move Liang Sheng.
Wei Ziwu clutched his stomach again, and fell to the ground, grinning his teeth in pain.
Liang Sheng hurriedly helped him up from the ground, "General Jing calm down, my brother has no intention of offending."
No offense intended?
Jing Yannian ignored him, but stared at him intently.It was as if his eyes could stop him from walking towards the courtyard.
But apparently he couldn't stop his eyes.
Liang Sheng and Wei Ziwu still followed the maid, walking in step by step.
King Yue sneered and walked out.
Jing Yannian looked up at him, "The king of Yue just left?"
Li Tai stopped and looked back at him, his lowered eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
After a while he slowly opened his mouth, "Someone asked me to go to Tianzi Room No. [-] in Yunding Casino. When I went, I saw two maids lying on the ground, and Xiao Yuzhuo was unconscious. I wanted to wake her up, but found that her face was flushed. , the breath is disordered, it seems... not quite right."
"A place like Yunding Casino is full of people, and if something happens, it will damage her reputation."
Li Tai paused for a moment, then continued.
"So I quietly sent her back, and I just met Liang Sheng. Liang Sheng said that he has a way to deal with this situation..."
Facing Jing Yannian's gaze, Li Tai snorted and his expression was very cold.
"After that, you have seen it all."
There was silence between the two, only the sunshine of autumn, as always.
"That's it?" Jing Yannian asked again.
Li Tai shook his head and snorted, as if impatient to explain to him.
But Jing Yannian's eyes fell on him, and he didn't give an inch.
Li Tai let out a breath, raised his head suddenly, and looked at him sharply, "What right do you have to question me? Isn't it enough that you hurt her? How much reputation did she bear because of you? Now she doesn't want to have anything to do with you anymore. It's entangled, what right do you have to question me about her?"
Is this tone wrong?
Jing Yannian frowned at Li Tai.
Li Tai's words seemed to be held in his chest for a long time.
If he doesn't say anything, it's over. Now that he has started, it seems that there is a tendency to be unstoppable.
He pointed at Jing Yannian and said, "She likes you with all her heart. If you have a big heart and focus on the child, treat her better! If you don't want to protect her, stay away from her! Let her go." !"
Jing Yannian raised his foot and approached Li Tai, his eyes fixed on Li Tai's, "What right does King Yue have to say such things to me?"
Their eyes met, and both of them were breathing heavily.
Where the lines of sight meet, there seems to be a murderous look.
"What qualifications do you need to speak?" Li Tai snorted softly, "I can say what I want to say!"
"You are not qualified to tell me these things!" Jing Yannian gritted his teeth, "I don't need you to teach me how to treat her."
Li Tai snorted coldly and smiled disdainfully, "Forget it, General Jing naturally doesn't need anyone to teach him."
He didn't seem to want to continue the stalemate with Jing Yannian, so he turned and walked out.
But Jing Yannian suddenly asked again: "Who is the person who invited you to Yunding Casino?"
Li Tai glanced back at him, "The note is not signed."
Jing Yannian frowned.
Li Tai glanced at him, and walked away.
Jing Yannian stood there without moving, watching Li Tai's back as he walked away step by step, turned a corner, and disappeared from sight.
Liang Sheng thought Xiao Yuzhuo would ask her about the past.
Unexpectedly, what Xiao Yuzhuo said was, "The imperial court seems to have some new actions in the future."
Liang Sheng was taken aback for a moment, but did not recover.What does the court's new actions have to do with her being plotted against before?
"The Holy Majesty wants to fill the national treasury, but he can neither start with taxes nor extract it from the mouth of the aristocratic family. In order to stabilize the political situation, the cabinet has given the Holy Majesty a suggestion." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, her expression was stable, her eyes Perseverance doesn't seem to be supported by too many emotions.
Looking at her expression, Liang Sheng couldn't help but feel a throbbing in his heart.
A woman, after experiencing those things just now, can still think about these things.
Should it be said that she is calm and open-minded?Or is it that she is ignorant?
"What happened just now..." Liang Sheng hesitated.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "What happened just now is over."
The reason why she was calculated by others was because she was too weak.
If she is strong enough, no one will dare to count her, no one can count her.
If a person falls, what should be done is not to turn around and stare at the stone that caused her to fall, and to stand still and follow the stone.Instead, get up and move on.
Seeing her determination, Liang Sheng had no choice but to stop insisting, "The Holy Majesty is anxious to make contributions and make some achievements, so as to consolidate the imperial power and make the people and officials more convinced of him."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "The Holy Majesty is an ambitious king. If the court makes decisions, there will be business opportunities. My uncle is in the cabinet, maybe I can ask him about it."
She sighed again and shook her head.
"However, I'm not sure if Uncle can tell me. After all, it's a suggestion from the cabinet to the Holy Majesty, so it's considered confidential, right?"
Liang Sheng coughed lightly, "I came to the other courtyard today because of this matter."
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why are you here?"
"I heard the news that the Holy Majesty intends to encourage commerce and change the current situation of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce." Liang Sheng said, "The specific government measures are still under discussion, but the more intuitive move recently is that the imperial court will sell most of the southern part of the city. land."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at him in astonishment.
How could he know this news?
I heard those people talk about it in Yunding Gambling Workshop today, and after talking about it, they lowered their voices and talked quietly, otherwise she couldn't have missed it.
It suddenly occurred to him that Liang Sheng used to run the Songzhu Restaurant.
His contacts in Chang'an City must be much more than that of the princess who has lost his name.
He inquired carefully, and it was not surprising that he could get the news of this hand.
"I was able to invite Liang Langjun to be the shopkeeper, what a treasure!" Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile.
Liang Sheng bowed his hands politely.
"Since the imperial court wants to sell the land in the south of the city, let's find a way to collect money and buy it." Xiao Yuzhuo raised his head and said.
(End of this chapter)
"Yuyu..." Li Tai called softly, and slowly bent down, approaching her eyebrows, her lips...
Zhuxiang ran after the little thief for a while, and the speed of the little thief was extremely fast.
She couldn't catch up.
She looked back and found that she had already left Genting Casino by a long distance.
Even if the money bag contained things from the family, she couldn't leave the lady behind for too long, right?
No matter how important the things in the mansion are, the big deal is to report to Jingzhao Mansion that the safety of the lady is the most important thing.
Zhuxiang stopped and turned back the way she had come and gone.
Seeing that she stopped chasing her, the little thief stopped, and shouted at her, "You don't want the purse, but it's mine!"
Zhuxiang felt bad, she didn't even turn her head, and her steps became faster and faster.
But at this moment, a few tall and thick men suddenly jumped out from the side of the road.
Several people still held sticks and mallets in their hands and other things.
Zhu Xiang's complexion froze.
Those people have already rushed forward.
Zhuxiang was blocked in the alley.
These people are not weak in skill, but they are so entangled with her that she can't hold her back.
With her own strength, she could barely avoid a big loss in their hands, but she was entangled to death by them.
Finished!
It was only now that Zhuxiang realized that she must have been caught in a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain!
I don't know what happened to the lady.
But after all, Princess Nanping is here, Princess Nanping will take good care of her, right?
As soon as Zhuxiang was distracted, she was hit hard on the shoulder.
She snorted, her left shoulder hurt so much that she couldn't use her strength, and she quickly lost the wind.
I ate a few more sticks on my body.
She opened her mouth to call for help, but the alley was deep and there were high walls on both sides, so I don't know how far her voice could travel?
People around her saw her screaming loudly.
A man was also allocated to block the entrance of the alley to watch the wind.
Zhuxiang felt despair in her heart.
Just at this time, Liao Changsheng followed General Jing and rode through the alley.
"Did the general hear it?" Liao Changsheng pricked up his ears, as if he had heard something.
Jing Yannian had a sullen face, still thinking about the woman in the other courtyard who made him worry.
"The soldiers and horses of the five cities are too tired. In Chang'an, there are women calling for help in broad daylight?" Liao Changsheng chuckled, "The commander of the soldiers and horses of the five cities was changed only a few months ago. It’s not hot yet, so I’m afraid it’s…”
"Go and have a look." Jing Yannian stopped his horse.
"Does the general want to meddle in this business?" Liao Changsheng asked.
Jing Yannian's face was sullen, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, "What kind of thing is bullying a woman in broad daylight?"
Liao Changsheng immediately bowed his hands to accept the order, flew off the horse, and went to the alley in search of the sound.
The strong man standing guard at the entrance of the alley immediately stretched out his hand to block it, "Don't meddle in your own business!"
Liao Changsheng snorted disdainfully, "Don't be in charge."
"Hey, you can't understand human language? I told you, don't meddle in other people's business, or you won't be able to eat and walk around!" Seeing that he didn't leave, the strong man shook the stick in his hand.
Liao Changsheng glanced at him and turned around as if to go back.
The strong man sneered, but he was not on his guard, Liao Changsheng suddenly turned his head and kicked straight at his forehead.
The strong man wanted to block it, but it was too late, and was kicked on the temple by Liao Changsheng.
His eyes darkened and he fell to the ground.
Liao Changsheng walked quickly and jumped into the alley.
The sound of fighting in the alley was getting closer.
But the woman's voice for help became smaller and smaller.
Liao Changsheng frowned and walked faster.
When he saw the small figure surrounded by several strong men, he was stunned for a moment.
"Bamboo Fragrance?" Liao Changsheng shouted and flew forward.
"There are really people who are not afraid of things!" Seeing that someone was helping, the strong men immediately turned around and besieged Liao Changsheng.
Zhuxiang was injured, her eye socket was broken by a heavy punch, blood was oozing from the corner of her eye, and the corner of her mouth was blue and bloody.
"Liao Suwei, leave me alone, go quickly! Yunding Casino, the lady is in danger!" Zhuxiang yelled.
Startled, Liao Changsheng flew forward and kicked the strong man in front of him so that he fell on his back.
He turned over and grabbed Zhuxiang's shoulder, leaped forward, leaving several strong men behind.
Those strong men immediately chased after them.
Liao Changsheng dragged her and ran out of the alley sullenly.
Finally, they ran out of the alley before several strong men caught up with them.
Jing Yannian was riding a horse, frowning and looking this way.
"Why are you in such a mess?" He asked Liao Changsheng.
After seeing that the person rescued by Liao Changsheng was actually Zhuxiang, his expression changed immediately, "Zhuxiang?! Why are you here? Where's Madam?"
"Miss, in... Yunding Casino, hurry up!" Zhuxiang's breath was unsteady.
Liao Changsheng grabbed her and flew onto the horse.
Zhuxiang was riding in front of him, the horse jolted violently, Zhuxiang almost fell off the horse.
Liao Changsheng pressed Zhuxiang into his arms, and with a sound of "drive--", he chased after Jing Yannian's horse.
Jing Yannian's horse almost flew up.
Run all the way.
Outside Yunding Casino, he jumped off the horse without reining in his horse.
When Liao Changsheng rushed to the outside of Yunding Casino with Zhuxiang, he had already rushed into the casino.
"On the second floor, Tianzi No. [-] room." Zhuxiang shouted.
Liao Changsheng hugged her and got off the horse.
As soon as he let go, Zhuxiang fell to the ground.
Liao Changsheng hurriedly picked her up again, "What's going on?"
Zhuxiang shook her head, pointed inside, and signaled him to go in first.
Liao Changsheng supported her, and when he rushed into Yunding Casino, Jing Yannian was already standing on the second floor of the casino, outside the private room booked by Princess Nanping.
The door of the private room was closed tightly, and there was no sound inside.
Liao Changsheng and Zhuxiang stood at the end of the corridor, their faces were a little nervous and frozen.
Jing Yannian knocked on the door, but no one answered.
He put his hand on the door and pushed hard.
The door is wide open.
Zhuxiang hurried forward, but Liao Changsheng didn't keep up with her, she staggered and fell to the ground.
Before Liao Changsheng could help her, she quickly stood up against the wall and stumbled to the door of the private room.
On the ground in the private room, there are plum and chrysanthemum lying down.
The window was wide open, but there was no sign of Xiao Yuzhuo.
"Where's Madam?" Liao Changsheng, who was chasing after him, asked hesitantly.
Zhuxiang's face was pale and without color.
Seeing that something was wrong, the errand of Yunding Gambling also ran over in a panic. Seeing the situation in the room, the errand was also startled.
"Drop the Yulin Army and surround Yunding Casino." Jing Yannian ordered Liao Changsheng.
The kid panicked when he heard it, and hurried to inform the gambling shop manager.
"Wake them up." Jing Yannian's complexion could no longer be described as dark and ugly.
Zhu Xiang entered the door, half squatted and half knelt beside Ju Xiang, patting Ju Xiang's face, "Wake up, Ju Xiang, wake up?"
After shouting for a while, he pinched people again and slapped his face again.
Ju Xiang finally opened her eyes slowly, "Not good, lady!"
"Where's the lady?" Zhu Xiang immediately grabbed her collar and asked.
Ju Xiang got up on the ground and looked back.
But he only saw Jing Yannian with a gloomy face, and Xiao Yuzhuo was nowhere to be seen in the private room.
"No, I don't know, a servant girl said... that you were entangled and couldn't come back, and before she finished speaking, she moved her hands towards Mei Xiang and me." Ju Xiang turned over and got up, her face tensed, she frowned and thought about it, "I didn't know later, did she take the lady away?"
The manager of Yunding Casino came rushing over.
"Hey, it turned out to be General Jing. What happened? Our Yunding casino operates according to the law and abides by the court rules. There is absolutely no..."
"The people in the private room are missing, aren't you Yunding Casino responsible?" Jing Yannian interrupted him in a deep voice.
The steward was taken aback by his cold tone, glanced left and right, and asked Xiaoer, "What's going on, who was lost?"
"Where's my wife?" Zhu Xiang shouted.
Ju Xiang squatted down and woke up Mei Xiang who was on the ground.
The butler heard Xiao Er say a few words, vaguely understood what happened, and quickly cupped his hands and said to Jing Yannian: "Don't worry, General Jing, you can't find him in our gambling shop, our gambling shop will definitely not shirk responsibility." .Now finding someone is the top priority, not the time to pursue responsibility. I will call Xiaoer over to ask, see who saw what, and I can always find some clues."
Jing Yannian's chest rose and fell.
Find a clue?
Everyone is gone, tell him now, ask them one by one, and then find some clues?
When they asked for clues, Xiao Yuzhuo might have...
"What is this?" Zhu Xiang pointed to some yellow-white powder sitting on the edge of the couch, and said in surprise.
Ju Xiang quickly squatted down, dipped a little powder with her fingers, put it under her nose and sniffed it, her brows immediately frowned.
Unsure of herself, she took another sip and spat it out with a "yuck".
Jing Yannian's cold eyes fell on her face.
"What is it?" Mei Xiang, who was still a little confused, asked anxiously.
Ju Xiang glanced at Jing Yannian anxiously, her voice couldn't be lower, "It's... the aphrodisiac..."
Jing Yannian's snort became heavier, and his knuckles creaked from being pinched.
Ju Xiang frowned even tighter, she took a step closer to Jing Yannian, and said in a low voice: "My lady is pregnant now, and the aphrodisiac will promote the contractions... If it can't be relieved in time... I'm afraid the baby will be lost." .”
Jing Yannian raised his hand and slapped the door frame.
The door frame cracked.
Liao Changsheng quickly mobilized his troops and surrounded the entire Yunding Casino.
Jing Yannian snorted coldly, "Everyone is not allowed to enter or leave the gambling house, search one by one."
The steward was taken aback, he searched nowhere, this is a gambling house, and it is the most elegant gambling house in Chang'an City.
The people who play here are either the children of the gentry, or the celebrities of the aristocratic family.
Whoever is offended will be detrimental to Genting Casino.
Whether people put the account on General Jing or Yunding Gambling House, it will affect the gambling house's opening for business in the future.
"General, don't be angry, you can't search! Since something happened, he must not be in the casino right now! You should look for it elsewhere!" The steward clapped his hands and said hurriedly, "You are looking for it in the casino. Isn't it a waste of time?"
"Then tell me, where is he? Where can I find him?" Jing Yannian grabbed the man in charge by the collar.
He raised his hand sharply and pushed.
The steward sat down on the ground.
How did he know where to look for it?Anyway, it shouldn't alarm the other people in the casino.
"You are looking for someone with such a big fanfare, if... something is wrong and someone sees it, that person will be found, and the reputation will be ruined, right?" The manager put all his eggs in one basket, closed his eyes and said desperately .
Jing Yannian became even angrier immediately, and was about to slap the steward to death with one slap.
But suddenly someone rushed up to the second floor and rushed straight to Jing Yannian.
"General, tell the general to know, ma'am, she..." The man cupped his hands, looking anxious, but hesitated to speak.
Jing Yannian raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were bloodshot, "What's the matter, madam?"
He recognized this person as the nurse he sent to another courtyard to give to Xiao Yuzhuo.
The nurse hurriedly said, "Madam has returned to the other courtyard, the general should go back and have a look!"
Those words stunned everyone present.
Xiao Yuzhuo inexplicably disappeared from Yunding Gambling House, and now he returned to another courtyard inexplicably?
Jing Yannian pushed the gambling house manager away, and rushed downstairs in stride.
He threw all the people in the gambling house, beat the horses by himself, and went straight to the other courtyard.
Zhu Xiang grabbed the collar of the nurse, "What's the matter, lady? Huh?"
The nurse shook his head again and again and refused to say anything.
"Don't ask him, hurry back and talk about it!" Ju Xiang said in a deep voice.
Jing Yannian rushed back to the other courtyard first.
The atmosphere in the other courtyard was a bit weird, Xiao Yuzhuo's dowry was guarding the gate of the inner courtyard.
Seeing Jing Yannian, he stretched out his hand to stop him, refusing to let Jing Yannian in.
Jing Yannian was already very anxious, and seeing this made him even more angry.
How could they stop him, he flew and kicked down several servants who knew kung fu.
Those who don't know kung fu, or don't have very good kung fu, are even worse.
He went on a rampage all the way, almost entering the inner courtyard.
But in the inner courtyard, he stopped in his tracks.
Seeing the person standing in front of the bedroom door, the blood in his whole body seemed to freeze instantly.
Wei Ziwu stood with his back straight, like a door god, standing under the porch.
When Jing Yannian saw him, he just looked up and saw Jing Yannian.
He cupped his hands and said, "General Jing..."
Before he finished speaking, Jing Yannian's punching wind had already forced his face.
"Step aside!"
Jing Yannian's face was dark and terrifying, and his fist style was even more frightening than his face.
Wei Ziwu dodged sideways, but blocked the door, "You can't go in."
These words made Jing Yannian very angry.
He hit him with a punch faster than a punch.
Wei Ziwu didn't even have a chance to speak again, so he forced him to retreat step by step.
Thinking of the last time, he broke his brother's guqin without saying a word, Wei Ziwu also became angry.
He seemed to want to explain something, but now he pursed his lips tightly, without saying a word, and became ruthless in his moves.
The two fought fiercely in the courtyard.
Liao Changsheng came after him with the Habayashi army.
"Get out!" Wei Ziwu raised his voice.
Liao Changsheng saw that someone dared to fight the general, so he would not listen to him.
Wei Ziwu looked at Jing Yannian, "If you tell your people to rush in, I'm afraid you will regret it!"
Jing Yannian's moves became more and more fierce, but Ju Xiang's words suddenly rang in his ears, "It's an aphrodisiac..."
Wei Ziwu stood guard outside her bedroom and did not allow him to enter...
What will it be like inside?
Jing Yannian only felt a mouthful of blood, and rushed forward immediately.
He slapped Wei Ziwu's chest fiercely.
Wei Ziwu was shocked by him and backed up a few steps, spat out a mouthful of blood, but he still had a smile on his face, "Why don't you ask your people to rush in and have a look?"
"Get out." Jing Yannian ordered in a deep voice.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Liao Changsheng immediately waved his hands and told the Habayashi army to retreat.
He himself retreated in a panic.
The yard fell silent for a moment.
Jing Yannian raised his foot and walked towards the bedroom.
Who knows that Wei Ziwu blocked it again, "I didn't say you can go in, did I?"
Jing Yannian glanced at him coldly, his eyes were blood red, "Do I need your permission to go in?"
Before he finished speaking, he raised his foot and kicked Wei Ziwu.
Wei Ziwu wanted to dodge, but he received a palm on his chest, which blocked his breath and his movements were not so smooth.
He was kicked again, and his face was even more embarrassed.
But he pounced forward and grabbed Jing Yannian's robe tightly, "You can't go in now! My brother's good deed has been ruined, how can I be worthy of my brother?"
Wei Ziwu seemed to be angry with him on purpose.
Jing Yannian originally didn't want to be influenced by him, but he could hear the deliberateness in his voice, and also saw the treachery on his face.
But hearing these words in his ears, he couldn't restrain the anger gushing out of his chest at all.
He kicked Wei Ziwu violently, raised his hand and punched Wei Ziwu hard.
Wei Ziwu's face turned pale in an instant, and the blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, the bedroom door creaked open.
Only then did Wei Ziwu heave a sigh of relief, and let go of his hand, "Brother, if I don't come out, I'm going to die outside."
He rolled his eyes and lay down on the ground in the courtyard.
Jing Yannian looked at the opened door of the bedroom with a dark face.
It wasn't Liang Sheng who came out first.
It was someone he never thought of, Li Tai.
"King Yue?" Jing Yannian didn't even have the courtesy, and looked at Li Tai coldly, with a knife in his suspicious eyes, wishing he could be delayed.
Li Tai's complexion was not good either, he stepped out the door and said in a deep voice, "She and the child are fine, go and have a look."
Jing Yannian remembered what Ju Xiang said in Yunding Casino.
She said that aphrodisiacs will cause uterine contractions, and if they are not relieved in time, the child will surely die.
Jing Yannian couldn't care less immediately, and didn't have time to ask, why did he appear here?How could he come out of Xiao Yuzhuo's bedroom?
He strode in immediately and almost collided with Liang Sheng who was about to go out.
Liang Sheng took a step back, bowed his hands, and made way for him.
Jing Yannian was breathing heavily, and he just wanted to strangle the two men who appeared in Xiao Yuzhuo's bedroom immediately.
He raised his eyes and looked in, and saw Xiao Yuzhuo was lying on the imperial concubine's couch, his face was not pretty, but his clothes were neat and intact, he was slightly relieved.
Jing Yannian stepped closer to Xiao Yuzhuo.
Liang Sheng walked out without saying a word.
There seemed to be a faint fragrance of medicine in the room, and Jing Yannian's wheezing was only heard quietly.
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and didn't look at him.
Jing Yannian was sitting next to her, with a stern aura as if he had just returned from killing someone on the battlefield.
Neither of them spoke.
The situation seemed a little awkward, so that neither of them knew what to say.
"I……"
"you……"
After a long silence, the two spoke together again.
Xiao Yuzhuo curled his lips, "You go ahead."
Jing Yannian took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the roiling anger in his heart, "You are startled."
Xiao Yuzhuo thought a lot, but he never expected that he would say this in the first sentence.
She looked up in astonishment, and looked at him in disbelief, "What did you say?"
Jing Yannian's deep gaze fell on her face scorchingly.
His eyes were introverted, like a bottomless deep pool, surrounded by blood-red waves, showing how anxious and anxious he was during the time she disappeared.
"I'm fine, and the child is fine." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, the others really didn't know what to say.
"My lady! My lady!" Several servant girls hurried back.
They were worried, knowing that Jing Yannian was inside, they didn't dare to rush in, so they could only call anxiously outside.
"Come in." Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at Jing Yannian and said.
Jing Yannian sat up straight.
Mei Xiang rushed to the front.
Zhuxiang, who usually has the most nimble hands and feet, has fallen behind.
She walked with a slight limp.
When Mei Xiang saw her, two lines of tears came down, "Lady, you scared the servants to death."
Xiao Yuzhuo laughed, "I'm fine."
Looking at her heartless smile, Jing Yannian felt a sharp pain in his head.
"Chrysanthemum fragrance." Jing Yannian said.
Ju Xiang hurried forward, knelt down beside the imperial concubine's couch, and put her hand on Xiao Yuzhuo's wrist.
Concentrate on the diagnosis for a while.
Ju Xiang raised her eyebrows, "The pulse condition is stable, the lady was hit earlier... aphrodisiac, how is it..."
Before she finished speaking, she felt that the room was much colder in an instant.
Mei Xiang, who was kneeling beside her, couldn't help shivering.
Ju Xiang glanced at Jing Yannian in fear, pursed her lips and dared not ask any more questions.
Xiao Yuzhuo gave Jing Yannian a blank look, and said casually, "Fortunately, Mr. Liang is here."
Jing Yannian snorted.
"Mr. Liang knows medical skills?" Ju Xiang blurted out immediately.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't make a sound.
The smell of medicine in the room is very obvious.
"The lady is frightened, can the servant cook some soothing soup for the lady?" Ju Xiang whispered.
Jing Yannian looked down at Ju Xiang, "Is Madam okay?"
Ju Xiang quickly lowered her head, "Yes, Madam's pulse is stable, and the baby in her belly is also safe, General, please rest assured."
Xiao Yuzhuo sat up, "Thank you General for your concern, since my child and I are fine, please let the General go, I still have something to do."
Jing Yannian raised his thick eyebrows, "Do you have anything else to do? What else do you need to do?"
This look, as if wishing to eat her.
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted slightly, "I don't need to report to the general one by one if I have anything to do? General, don't forget..."
It's irrelevant to say what you want to say when you see her.
Jing Yannian got up abruptly, "I won't listen. I'm not going anywhere today, I'm here."
"Oh, Juxiang, I have a headache." Xiao Yuzhuo immediately laid down on his head, "It hurts when I see people."
Jing Yannian frowned at her.
Ju Xiang whispered: "Lang Jun, my lady was just startled, so let her go..."
She spoke in a very low voice, relying on her medical skills to dare to say such a sentence.
After finishing speaking, she quickly lowered her head.
Mei Xiang and Zhu Xiang, who had been silent all this time, both sweated for her.
Jing Yannian took another look at Xiao Yuzhuo before turning around and leaving the room.
Unexpectedly, the maid outside the door said, those three men haven't left yet.
At this time, he was waiting outside the yard.
With a serious face, Jing Yannian stepped out of the courtyard door.
Sure enough, he saw Li Taizheng and Liang Sheng whispering something.
Wei Ziwu was on the side, leaning against a jujube tree with his back, and cried out when he saw him.
Li Tai and Liang Sheng also looked up at him.
Liang Sheng bowed his hands in salute.
Jing Yannian was too lazy to greet the King of Yue.
Li Tai didn't care, "Since the general has seen that she's fine, I'm leaving now."
Jing Yannian sneered, "If His Highness the King of Yue doesn't give me an explanation, are you going to leave?"
Li Tai frowned slightly.
Liang Sheng seemed to want to say something, but seeing the faces of the two of them, he pursed his lips.
Wei Ziwu was on the side, grinning, but Jing Yannian hit hard, his whole body hurt when he smiled like this, and he couldn't help gasping.
It was so embarrassing for the four of them to stand here like this.
The afternoon sun in autumn fell on the yard and on the jujube tree, silently.
"Shopkeeper Liang, my lady invites you to come over." The little maid ran out from the inner courtyard and said.
Such a word that broke the silence made Jing Yannian's face even uglier.
As soon as she drove him away, she asked Mr. Liang to come forward again? !
Was this done on purpose for him to see?
His hand hanging by his side creaked.
Wei Ziwu immediately held Zao Shu and stood up straight, saying: "My brother is Xiao Niangzi's powerful treasurer, if you hurt my brother, Xiao Niangzi will definitely not spare you!"
This is adding salt to his wounds!
Jing Yannian took a deep breath and raised his leg violently.
bang.
He didn't move Liang Sheng.
Wei Ziwu clutched his stomach again, and fell to the ground, grinning his teeth in pain.
Liang Sheng hurriedly helped him up from the ground, "General Jing calm down, my brother has no intention of offending."
No offense intended?
Jing Yannian ignored him, but stared at him intently.It was as if his eyes could stop him from walking towards the courtyard.
But apparently he couldn't stop his eyes.
Liang Sheng and Wei Ziwu still followed the maid, walking in step by step.
King Yue sneered and walked out.
Jing Yannian looked up at him, "The king of Yue just left?"
Li Tai stopped and looked back at him, his lowered eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
After a while he slowly opened his mouth, "Someone asked me to go to Tianzi Room No. [-] in Yunding Casino. When I went, I saw two maids lying on the ground, and Xiao Yuzhuo was unconscious. I wanted to wake her up, but found that her face was flushed. , the breath is disordered, it seems... not quite right."
"A place like Yunding Casino is full of people, and if something happens, it will damage her reputation."
Li Tai paused for a moment, then continued.
"So I quietly sent her back, and I just met Liang Sheng. Liang Sheng said that he has a way to deal with this situation..."
Facing Jing Yannian's gaze, Li Tai snorted and his expression was very cold.
"After that, you have seen it all."
There was silence between the two, only the sunshine of autumn, as always.
"That's it?" Jing Yannian asked again.
Li Tai shook his head and snorted, as if impatient to explain to him.
But Jing Yannian's eyes fell on him, and he didn't give an inch.
Li Tai let out a breath, raised his head suddenly, and looked at him sharply, "What right do you have to question me? Isn't it enough that you hurt her? How much reputation did she bear because of you? Now she doesn't want to have anything to do with you anymore. It's entangled, what right do you have to question me about her?"
Is this tone wrong?
Jing Yannian frowned at Li Tai.
Li Tai's words seemed to be held in his chest for a long time.
If he doesn't say anything, it's over. Now that he has started, it seems that there is a tendency to be unstoppable.
He pointed at Jing Yannian and said, "She likes you with all her heart. If you have a big heart and focus on the child, treat her better! If you don't want to protect her, stay away from her! Let her go." !"
Jing Yannian raised his foot and approached Li Tai, his eyes fixed on Li Tai's, "What right does King Yue have to say such things to me?"
Their eyes met, and both of them were breathing heavily.
Where the lines of sight meet, there seems to be a murderous look.
"What qualifications do you need to speak?" Li Tai snorted softly, "I can say what I want to say!"
"You are not qualified to tell me these things!" Jing Yannian gritted his teeth, "I don't need you to teach me how to treat her."
Li Tai snorted coldly and smiled disdainfully, "Forget it, General Jing naturally doesn't need anyone to teach him."
He didn't seem to want to continue the stalemate with Jing Yannian, so he turned and walked out.
But Jing Yannian suddenly asked again: "Who is the person who invited you to Yunding Casino?"
Li Tai glanced back at him, "The note is not signed."
Jing Yannian frowned.
Li Tai glanced at him, and walked away.
Jing Yannian stood there without moving, watching Li Tai's back as he walked away step by step, turned a corner, and disappeared from sight.
Liang Sheng thought Xiao Yuzhuo would ask her about the past.
Unexpectedly, what Xiao Yuzhuo said was, "The imperial court seems to have some new actions in the future."
Liang Sheng was taken aback for a moment, but did not recover.What does the court's new actions have to do with her being plotted against before?
"The Holy Majesty wants to fill the national treasury, but he can neither start with taxes nor extract it from the mouth of the aristocratic family. In order to stabilize the political situation, the cabinet has given the Holy Majesty a suggestion." Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly, her expression was stable, her eyes Perseverance doesn't seem to be supported by too many emotions.
Looking at her expression, Liang Sheng couldn't help but feel a throbbing in his heart.
A woman, after experiencing those things just now, can still think about these things.
Should it be said that she is calm and open-minded?Or is it that she is ignorant?
"What happened just now..." Liang Sheng hesitated.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled, "What happened just now is over."
The reason why she was calculated by others was because she was too weak.
If she is strong enough, no one will dare to count her, no one can count her.
If a person falls, what should be done is not to turn around and stare at the stone that caused her to fall, and to stand still and follow the stone.Instead, get up and move on.
Seeing her determination, Liang Sheng had no choice but to stop insisting, "The Holy Majesty is anxious to make contributions and make some achievements, so as to consolidate the imperial power and make the people and officials more convinced of him."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "The Holy Majesty is an ambitious king. If the court makes decisions, there will be business opportunities. My uncle is in the cabinet, maybe I can ask him about it."
She sighed again and shook her head.
"However, I'm not sure if Uncle can tell me. After all, it's a suggestion from the cabinet to the Holy Majesty, so it's considered confidential, right?"
Liang Sheng coughed lightly, "I came to the other courtyard today because of this matter."
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why are you here?"
"I heard the news that the Holy Majesty intends to encourage commerce and change the current situation of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce." Liang Sheng said, "The specific government measures are still under discussion, but the more intuitive move recently is that the imperial court will sell most of the southern part of the city. land."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at him in astonishment.
How could he know this news?
I heard those people talk about it in Yunding Gambling Workshop today, and after talking about it, they lowered their voices and talked quietly, otherwise she couldn't have missed it.
It suddenly occurred to him that Liang Sheng used to run the Songzhu Restaurant.
His contacts in Chang'an City must be much more than that of the princess who has lost his name.
He inquired carefully, and it was not surprising that he could get the news of this hand.
"I was able to invite Liang Langjun to be the shopkeeper, what a treasure!" Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile.
Liang Sheng bowed his hands politely.
"Since the imperial court wants to sell the land in the south of the city, let's find a way to collect money and buy it." Xiao Yuzhuo raised his head and said.
