Daughter of a High Sect: Abandoned Concubine Reborn

Chapter 70
Xuanyuan Qiche laughed out loud, and his mood improved instantly.

He glanced at Ouyang Jinxuan who was still kneeling on the ground, changed his dignified expression, and said sharply, "Get up, now that the crown prince is begging for you, I will spare you for the time being, but I will punish you to think behind closed doors for half a month. Your salary for two years will be exempted, you can accept it."

Hearing this, Ouyang Jinxuan hurriedly kowtowed his head to express his gratitude, "Thanks to the emperor for the lighter punishment, and also to the crown prince for pleading for mercy for this humble minister. This humble minister will definitely reflect on himself."

Xuanyuan Ye looked at Ouyang Jinxuan, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he was in a good mood.

The crisis of the theft of donations from the treasury subsided under the prince's few words, but Ouyang Jinxuan always felt that the matter would not end like that, as if an invisible net was slowly closing in on them.

Looking at the returning Ouyang Jinxuan, Zhao Ran'er greeted Ouyang Jinxuan full of worry. She checked Ouyang Jinxuan up and down, and asked with some concern, "The emperor didn't do anything to you, did he?" .”

Ouyang Jinxuan looked at her, but his mind was far away. He was still thinking about this so-called theft, and he always felt that someone deliberately planned it. He responded lightly, "It's okay, I just fined Feng Yin and grounding."

Hearing that the emperor fined Feng Yin, Zhao Ran'er looked a little dignified, and hurriedly asked, "How long has the Emperor fined you for Feng Yin?"

Ouyang Jinxuan looked at her and frowned. He wondered why Zhao Ran'er suddenly cared about Feng Yin, but he still said indifferently, "Two years, what's the matter."

But Zhao Ran'er exclaimed, "Two years! So long!" Ouyang Jinxuan looked at her with a strange expression, wondering what she was panicking about, isn't it just a two-year salary, she has never paid a salary I took Yin's matter to heart, why did I remember it today, and I still reacted so violently.

Zhao Ran'er straightened her face slightly, lowered her voice as much as possible, and said slowly to Ouyang Jinxuan, "Master, do you know that the warehouse was stolen, and all our savings in it were also looted. Now , all the shops are suppressed by the Wei family, and the income is pitifully low, if your salary is also waived by the emperor, how do you think our Xiangfu will live in the future."

Ouyang Jinxuan froze for a moment, only to realize it belatedly.These days, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been struggling with food, clothing and housing due to the poor business of the shops. Last night, the money from the warehouse was stolen again, and the salary was also suspended. For such a big mansion, the whole mansion has a total of One hundred and 80 people, what will they rely on to support them in the future?

Thinking about it, he also became worried.

Sanssouci Palace

Leng Xuanyue was sitting leisurely drinking tea in Jingyan Pavilion. With his slender fingers, he gently raised a purple jade teacup, brought it to his lips, blew on the steaming tea gracefully, and said casually, " What's going on with her?"

The man in black at the side said respectfully, "My lord, there is nothing unusual about the girl, but today the prime minister was declared into the palace."

Leng Xuanyue put down the teacup in her hand, "Successful to the palace? What happened next?"

"Later, he returned home unscathed."

Leng Xuanyue smiled mockingly, it seemed that Ouyang Feixue's hands were not heavy enough.

"How is Master Chen?" Ever since Ouyang Feixue left, Jing Chen has been depressed, unable to get excited about anything, and is always in a daze alone. He knows that Jing Chen He must have been tempted by that girl.

The man in black replied, "Master Chen has been in the room and never came out."

Leng Xuanyue frowned, this Ouyang Feixue, maybe he shouldn't have kept her in the first place, he took a deep breath.

"Let's go to Broken Yuxuan."

Broken Yuxuan, the courtyard was empty, and it was quiet and lonely.

Ah Jing stood guard outside the door alone, and the door of Jingchen's room was closed tightly.At this time, he was alone in the room, with a brush in his hand, rice paper on the table, and Ouyang Feixue's name was slowly being read.Today he didn't wear a mask, his handsome face was exposed to the air at a glance, his slender Danfeng eyes were full of blurred brilliance, there was already light stubble on his pointed chin, his fair face was a bit haggard, and his brows were tightly knit , he looked at the words on the paper, with a painful and troubled look on his face.

He didn't know why Ouyang Feixue left suddenly without leaving a word of farewell, his heart was inexplicably empty, as if she also left with her.These days, he always thinks of her, of her indifferent eyes, of her intentional or unintentional sadness, of her occasional smile?????? Is this love?he asked himself.

Outside the door, Ah Jing saw Leng Xuanyue coming, and hurriedly greeted her respectfully.

Leng Xuanyue said to the man in black behind him, "You stay here and watch." He opened the door and went in. The room was a little dark, but there was a faint light on the side by the window. Jing Chen stood there straight, Lost in thought, a few gleams of light hit his face, outlining the gloomy look on his face.

Leng Xuanyue frowned, and approached him slowly, he saw the rice paper on the table, full of the words "Ouyang Feixue", the handwriting was a bit messy, and the writing was a bit heavy.

Jingchen came back to his senses and found Leng Xuanyue standing beside him. He tried his best to smile and asked, "Why is Second Brother here?" The bitterness, but Leng Xuanyue saw it in her eyes.

He looked at Jing Chen with a fixed gaze, and asked, "Are you really in love with her?"

Leng Xuanyue looked at the expression on his face, from surprise to embarrassment to blushing, she already had the answer in her heart.

He was inexplicably angry, he was angry that the two brothers fell in love with the same woman??????
Leng Xuanyue closed her eyes in some pain, and said, "She's not suitable for you." Jing Chen was startled, he didn't understand why Leng Xuanyue said such a sentence suddenly.

Leng Xuanyue didn't look at him, the complicated look in his eyes showed his complicated mood at the moment.Jingchen looked at him with doubts in his eyes, "Why?" He knew that Leng Xuanyue had never cared about his emotional affairs, but why did he say that she was not suitable for him?
Leng Xuanyue's eyes turned cold, she looked at Jingchen and said word by word, "Don't forget that we still have things to do, we can't be tied down by the love of our children!"

Jing Chen chuckled, "I know, but I won't let her become a fetter." He had asked himself thousands of times but still had no answer. Now, when Leng Xuanyue asked such a direct question, his heart suddenly became clear—— It turned out to be really love.

Leng Xuanyue saw the persistence in Jingchen's eyes, and her heart sank severely.Facing Shang Jingchen's eyes that were shining with strange brilliance, his heart froze, and he said coldly, "If you are persistent, I might kill her."
