Return of Jin Yi

Chapter 51 Go back and kneel on the washboard for two hours!

Sensing Chu Ci's gaze, King Lu Xiaojun caught a mouthful of boiled fish fillet in his throat and coughed frantically until tears came out.

Seeing his appearance, Chu Ci suddenly lost his appetite, and glanced at Bi Yue, "Go and help your little prince get a bowl of herbal tea!"

"Yes, girl!" Biyue said, winking at the little maid beside her.

The little maid immediately walked out, and brought in a bowl of herbal tea after a while.

King Lu Xiaojun grabbed it with his hands and gulped it down.

After pouring, he slowed down for a while, wiped the hot tears with the back of his hand, stared at Chu Ci, and asked unhappily, "What was that look in your eyes just now?"

"Huh?" Chu Ci didn't understand what he meant, "What kind of eyes do I have?"

"It's the kind of eyes that look at juniors! Young master is your fiancé, it's your men, yet you look at young master with eyes that look at juniors!" King Lu Xiaojun blushed and howled at Chu Ci in a hoarse voice.

Chu Ci thought for a while, then smiled and said, "So it's for this!"

King Lu Xiaojun let out a cold snort, and sat down on the drum stool again, "From now on, you are not allowed to look at me like this again!"

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows, "Okay, as long as you don't look like a child, I will never look at you with that look again!"

"Who are you calling a child!" King Lu Xiaojun put down his chopsticks, slammed the table, and got angry again!
Chu Ci looked at him lightly from top to bottom, paused slightly, and said, "Who knows who the child is!"

"You, you wicked woman!" Lu Xiaojun Wang stood up awkwardly, "I have nothing to say to you, you can eat this table by yourself, and I will go to Shuanghua Building to find Miss Zhen!"

After speaking, he pulled out the jade fan from behind his shoulder, and was about to walk out while swinging it.

Chu Ci has promised Nanjun Wangfei to train him.

Since he won't let him go away in anger, and go somewhere he shouldn't go, he immediately turned his head and shouted coldly, "Stop!"

King Lu Xiaojun was really obedient, he slammed his jade fan and turned around, with a foolish expression on his face, he said impatiently, "What else can I do?"

"Where is Shuanghua Building?" Chu Ci was puzzled.

King Lu Xiaojun looked proud, "Shuanghua Building is naturally the most high-end fireworks venue in Jinling City, and I am the gold medal owner there!"

Listening to his explanation, Chu Ci slowly stood up from the drum stool.

With a cold body, he walked towards him step by step.After stopping in front of him, he raised his head and looked into his eyes, "you say it again, where are you going?"

"Master is going to the most upscale fireworks venue in Jinling City, Shuanghua Building!" Duke Lu Xiaojun blurted out without fear of death.

After listening to Chu Ci, he raised his hand and slapped him on the face, his eyes were fierce, "Say it again, where are you going?"

It was the first time that Lu Xiaojun was slapped in the face at such a young age. After he was stunned, he subconsciously raised his fist and wanted to return it.

Chu Ci felt a gust of wind pass by, and the next moment, Lu Yifeng's fist reached her forehead.

In the dining room, the maidservants and servant girls who were serving by the side held their breath, not daring to take a breath.

Chu Ci passed the fist between his eyebrows, and looked directly at Lu Yifeng's struggling eyes, but he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, "Why don't you make a move?"

With a slap mark on his face, King Lu Xiaojun suddenly withdrew his fist forcefully, turned his head away, and said, "For the sake of you being pregnant, I will let you go this time, and if there is another time, I will not let you go." I will be polite to you!"

"Really?" Chu Ci chuckled, "Then are you still going to Shuanghua Building?"

Thinking of the slap just now, King Lu Xiaojun hesitated for a moment, and then he straightened his neck and said, "Of course!"

After he finished speaking, Chu Ci raised his left hand and slapped him again.

And King Lu Xiaojun covered his right face, his eyes were red with anger, "Why do you still change your face?!"

Chu Ci lightly hooked the corner of his lips, "I can fight wherever I want, do I still need to ask you for instructions?"

King Lu Xiaojun's eyes were red, his fists were raised and lowered, raised and lowered, and finally, he said angrily, "You poisonous woman, wicked woman! Why do you control me, why don't you let me go to Shuanghua Building? After marrying you, I can only face you, a tigress, for the rest of my life? Why!"

"Why do you say?" Chu Ci raised his chin and looked straight at him, "Just because I am the daughter-in-law your grandmother and your mother begged for you! If you hit you, hit you, if you dare to hit me for a try try?"

"I..." King Lu Xiaojun raised his fist again, "Do you think I dare not hit you, young master?"

Chu Ci's pupils shrank, and he met his eyes coldly, "Then you'd better kill me once! Otherwise, as long as I have one breath, I will definitely make your intestines regret, and life is better than death." As he said, She dropped her gaze.

King Lu Xiaojun followed her gaze, and when he lowered his head, he saw three silver needles suddenly appearing between Chu Ci's fingers.

At this moment, he knew that what she said was true.

He dared to confront her - as long as she didn't kill her, then she would have a way to make him pay back a thousand times and a hundred times.

Mother!Are you looking for a daughter-in-law for your son, or a beast in the town house!King Lu Xiaojun suddenly felt that his life was so dark, and the sky of Jinling City was so gloomy.

"Now, are you still going to Shuanghua Building?" Chu Ci put away the silver needle, looked at Master Lu's lifeless face, and asked again.

Young Master Lu pursed his lips and shook his head, "I dare not go!"

Chu Ci pursed his lips, raised his hand, and patted his face lightly, "Hey, come here, I'll give you medicine."

Master Lu Xiaohou stood there motionless, with an aggrieved and arrogant expression.

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows, "If you don't apply the medicine, are you going to just go out with two slaps?"

Master Lu Xiaohou couldn't afford to lose this person, so he could only follow Chu Ci, walking step by step to the pharmacy behind.

Chu Ci placed him on the couch in the pharmacy, and then took a bottle of medicine for reducing swelling and blood stasis from the Duobao Pavilion and walked towards him.

Open the bottle, pick out some ointment, knead it in the palm of your hand, and wipe it on his face.

The skin on the woman's palm is soft and tender, and the ointment is cool.

The moment she met Lu Xiaohou's face, Lu Xiaohou felt that his whole body was tense, his heart beat faster, and almost jumped out of his throat...

While helping him to apply the medicine, Chu Ci brushed at his reddish ears with a smile, and couldn't help but joke, "Yo, the little prince of Yeyu Five Girls also blush?"

King Lu Xiaojun was teased by her, and the charm in his heart disappeared, and he blurted out, "I don't want to have children with you, even if you give birth to twins, I don't care too much." ..."

Chu Ci was startled when he heard the words, and then looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "I'll help you with a medicine, you don't even think about our child's name, do you?"

King Lu Xiaojun was taken aback by the rumor.

The tips of the ears were even redder, burning hot.

He got up suddenly, snatched the medicine bottle from Chu Ci's hand, and said angrily, "You don't need it, I'll go back and ask Zilan and Furong to give me the medicine!"

Chu Ci looked at his figure leaving suddenly and said nothing.

At dusk, it was almost dark outside.

Chu Ci suddenly looked at Bi Yue, and said, "Go to the Xiaojun King's Court, and help me get a set of his clothes."

Biyun looked puzzled, "What do you want the little prince's clothes for?"

Chu Ci smiled slightly, keeping it secret, "I have my own use, you just go and get it!"

"Yes, girl!" Bi Yue didn't dare to ask any further questions, and took orders to leave.

About a quarter of an hour later, Biyue came back with a tray.

On the tray was a set of silver undressed men's clothes embroidered with auspicious clouds, and a jade crown was placed on the belt.

Chu Ci couldn't help admiring Biyue's carefulness.

She ordered, "Help me change into men's clothes."

Reminiscent of what happened at noon today, Bi Yue could easily think of Chu Ci's thoughts. She frowned, clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand, and persuaded her, "Girl, is this not good? If you do this, you will quarrel with the little prince." Stiff, when the time comes...it will be bad for you after all."

"It's okay." Chu Ci smiled lightly, "I don't pay attention to him, just help me change my clothes."

Seeing that Bi Yue couldn't persuade her, she had no choice but to go forward to help Chu Ci change her clothes. After changing her clothes, she tied a man's hair in a bun.

Chu Ci looked at himself in the mirror, and felt that except for the glamorous look between the eyebrows and the turbulent chest, everything else was fine and handsome.

"This is the fan that matches this dress." Bi Yue couldn't change Chu Ci's mind, so she could only serve her wholeheartedly.

Chu Ci took the bone fan, opened it twice with a smile on his face, and ordered, "Go prepare the car, let's go to Shuanghua Building!"

"...Yes, aunt...young master!" Bi Yue took the order to retreat.

When she came back, she informed that the carriage was ready, and at the same time, she changed into a servant's attire.

Satisfied, Chu Ci led her outside.

There was a lot of noise and brilliance, and finally, after an hour, the carriage stopped.

Chuci took Biyue and stepped on the ladder to get out of the car.

Not far in front of you is the brightly lit Shuanghua Building with three floors full of red lights.

"The No. [-] brothel in Jinling is indeed a chess and card game!" Chu Ci sighed.

Bi Yue was a little depressed, "Could it be that the girl has seen other brothels?"

"That's not true!" Chu Ci shook his bone fan and said with some emotion, "I walked from Bingzhou to the capital alone, and I met countless high-ranking families. A house is like a house, and there are only four or five girls in a courtyard... Unlike here, the gatehouse is tall, the lights are bright, and the flow of people is like weaving!"

Bi Yue: "...Young lady has so much knowledge!"

Chu Ci smiled without making a sound, and walked directly towards Shuanghua Building.

In Shuanghua Building, today is unprecedentedly lively.

There is no other reason—today is the first auction night of Miss Zhenhua, one of Shuanghua.

At this time, the auction has not yet started, but the hall is full of seats.

Unable to bear the crowding, Chu Ci looked sideways at Biyue and motioned her to follow her.

The two intersected all the way, and soon reached the high platform.

On the high platform, the madam Chunniang was bargaining with a benefactor.

Seeing Chu Ci approaching slowly, she glanced over subconsciously with her sharp eyes, and at the same time asked softly, "This young master looks unfamiliar, but is he a newcomer?"

Chu Ci nodded, "My surname is Chu, and I'm from the capital city. I came to see my cousin and aunt in Nanjun Palace. I just heard that there is a lot of excitement here, so I came to have a look!"

When the madam heard the people from the capital, and then the Nanjun Palace, her eyes were eager, and she immediately abandoned the benefactor who was negotiating next to her, and turned to Chu Ci and said, "It turns out that it is Mr. Chu, since he is from the Nanjun Palace, why don't you talk to King Lu Xiaojun?" How about coming together?"

When Chu Ci heard the words Lu Xiaojun Wang, his pupils shrank instantly, and a hint of danger flashed in his eyes, "Oh? My cousin is here too?"

The bustard looked at Chu Ci in surprise, "Master Chu doesn't know?"

Chu Ci opened the folding fan with a bang, and approached the madam and said, "To tell you the truth, because of the engagement, my cousin was really detained when he came in! No, the moment before I came out, my cousin at home, The ancestors thought he was working hard in the study!"

"So that's what it is, that's how it is!" The madam smiled knowingly.

Chu Ci said again, "I don't know which private room my cousin is in, but it's not convenient for you, Chun Niang, to take me there!"

"Naturally it's convenient, it's naturally convenient!" Chunniang said, glanced at the benefactor next to her, and led Chu Ci to the private room on the second floor.

"This is the private room, Young Master Chu, please!" Chunniang said flatteringly to Chu Ci outside the private room with the best view on the second floor.

Chu Ci took out an ingot of gold from his waist and threw it directly to her, then walked around the screen and walked in...

In the private room, King Lu Xiaojun was tearfully complaining to his friends and friends about the misery of having a Lion in the family...

The moment he looked up and saw Chu Ci, he almost thought he had seen a ghost.

The whole person froze, and the expression on his face was wonderful!
Seeing his appearance, the young masters next to him expressed concern——

"Little prince, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother Lu, are you bewitched?"

"Need brother to recommend you a warlock who can practice spirituality?"

……

King Lu Xiaojun turned pale and ignored everyone.Then, without any warning, he got up suddenly, walked around the table, grabbed Chu Ci's arm, and walked outside.

Chu Ci was dragged out by him abruptly, until he reached the corner where no one was around, he stopped, pressed her against the wall forcefully, and said in a trembling voice, "You, young master, let me tell you, in front of so many people In front of people, you can't mess around, otherwise...I..."

"How are you?" Chu Ci leaned against the wall, leaning against him leisurely, with playfulness in his eyes and threat in seven.

King Lu Xiaojun racked his brains, wondering where he could beat her!Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, I will leave the palace when I go back! I will let you marry a dead eunuch!"

"Pfft!" Chu Ci couldn't hold back, suddenly burst out laughing, and slapped his chest with the bone fan in his hand, saying, "Little Junwang, you are so cute, does your mother know?"

"Be serious, young master!" King Lu Xiaojun became furious, "Besides, there is no way to describe a man as cute!"

"Okay, okay, I'm wrong!" Chu Ci compromised, "Can you let me go first? Is this bad influence?"

Only then did King Lu Xiaojun notice the men's clothing on her, and in an instant, he quickly retracted his hand as if he had touched some hot yam.After a pause, he said again, "You are a woman, dressed like this, and come to such a low place, what is your dignity?!"

Chu Ci gave him a cold look, "Then who promised me not to come?"

Hearing her rhetorical question, King Lu Xiaojun immediately felt wronged, and tightened his lips, feeling a little guilty.

"Go back and kneel on the washboard for two hours!" Chu Ci said word by word.

King Lu Xiaojun refused to accept, "Why?!"

Chu Ci was even more ruthless: "Or do you want to kneel at the door of Langyue Residence with the water tank on your back?"

King Lu Xiaojun: "Master, I just went to a flower house!!!"

Chu Ci elongated his tone: "Huh—? Say it again!"

Lu Xiaojun Wang Bianzui: "Kneel, kneel, as long as you don't embarrass my young master in front of others!"

Chu Ci picked up the bone fan and tapped him lightly on the shoulder, "You are wise, let's go, let's grab the oiran!"

King Lu Xiaojun: "..."

Grab the oiran?Did he hear correctly?

And Chu Ci was already walking towards the elegant room just now.

Because there was a long and narrow aisle between the place where the two were talking and the private room, when she turned the corner, she accidentally bumped into someone.

"Sorry!" Chu Ci stepped back in a hurry, apologizing subconsciously.

At the same time, with the faint light, he looked towards the man.

I saw that the man was a full head taller than her, dressed in black black clothes, with a strong body, bronze skin, and an extraordinary look in his eyebrows and eyes.

"It's okay!" His voice was low, and even his relief was a bit cold.

Chu Ci was about to dodge sideways.

Unexpectedly, the voice of King Lu Xiaojun who wanted to be beaten came from behind him, "It's rare, I didn't expect that Marquis Dingnan would be willing to spend money to play in Shuanghua Building! I thought that I would never see him in Shuanghua Building in this life." You!"

Xiao Zhenyun heard Lu Xiaojun taunting him so much, his brows turned cold, and he was about to get angry.

At this time, Chu Ci suddenly took a step back, stood in front of King Lu Xiaojun, and said with an apologetic smile, "My brother is stubborn, please forgive me. When I return home, my younger brother has already told the princess and old lady of the county to punish him. he!"

When she finished speaking, before Xiao Zhenyun could say anything, King Lu Xiaojun became angry. He grabbed Chu Ci's hand and snorted coldly, "What kind of brother, little brother, you are obviously my fiancee, yes My future concubine! Why hide your identity and apologize to this bumpkin!"

Chu Ci has been in Jinling for so long, and he knows a little about Dingnan Hou.

Although his background and his mother are worthy of criticism, these are secondary. The most important thing is that he used to be a soldier who defended his family and country, and all his achievements now are due to his fighting on the battlefield. What's more, he even saved the life of young Meng Jing.

Therefore, no matter from which angle she stood, she would not allow King Lu Xiaojun to be disrespectful to him.

"Apologize to Marquis Dingnan!" She turned around, looked at him without blinking, and said word by word.

"Why!" King Lu Xiaojun was annoyed, his eyes were full of anger when he looked at Chu Ci.

Chu Ci raised his hand, pointed his slender index finger at Xiao Zhenyun, and said in a serious tone, "Just because he has guarded the border for 18 years, because he fought desperately at the border and on the battlefield for the safety of the people of Yunchao! Because he is a bloody man, he has no shame in the world, and he has no shame about his parents! Just because you, Lu Yifeng, are just a playboy who only knows how to indulge in sex and sex! You touch your chest, your conscience, and ask yourself, do you have any? What qualifications do you have to insult him! If it weren't for the desperate efforts of these soldiers, you would be able to visit your flower house here today with peace of mind, and you would grow up so big? Lu Yifeng, do you really have the heart!"

King Lu Xiaojun fell silent when she asked her.

And behind her, Xiao Zhenyun's eyes were as bright as the brightest character in the dark night.

He didn't expect that the woman whom the Palace of Compassionate Ning wanted him to marry turned out to be such a chivalrous doctor with strong bones.

She... is like a bright jewel.

After appearing in his world, in an instant, it illuminated his whole life and warmed his cold heart.

"Miss Chu, don't embarrass the little prince. The Marquis doesn't care about what a child says. Miss, take care of what you said just now. I'll remember what you said just now. I'll take a step first!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and nodded. Leave without going back.

Chu Ci watched him walk away, then looked back at King Lu Xiaojun, couldn't hold back, and scolded, "Look at Marquis Dingnan, when will you be as mature as him!"

When Lu Xiaojun was aggrieved, he yelled at her, "He is good, then you go and marry him! I didn't ask you to marry me!"

"Okay, let's go!" Chu Ci shook his head helplessly, only feeling that his task of training was really a long way to go.

The two returned to the elegant room safely all the way, and the auction of Miss Zhenhua had already started.

Chu Ci looked down and felt that the woman lying on the brocade couch on the high platform was really unique.Especially the seductive and jerky look in his eyes is even more provocative.

A woman like her can't help but feel heartbroken, let alone those sons and daughters!
Immediately, the bidding price soared.

In the end, there were only three people fighting.

One is a wealthy businessman who is nearly seventy years old, the other is the magistrate of Jinling, and the other is... King Lu Xiaojun.

"I offer a thousand taels of gold!" the rich merchant shouted.

Xu, the prefect of Jinling, wanted to buy someone to curry favor with Shangfeng, so he paid a lot of money, "2000 taels of gold."

King Lu Xiaojun was about to increase the price, but Chu Ci directly grabbed the signboard in his hand and shouted towards the high platform, "Ten thousand taels of gold!"

"Golden [-] taels! It turned out to be golden [-] taels!" The bustard's voice was so excited that it shattered. "Is there anyone else who pays more than this? Golden [-] taels once! Golden [-] taels twice! Golden [-] taels..."

"I paid 5000 taels of gold!" The rich businessman gritted his teeth and added another 5000 taels.

Chu Ci was handsome, and his voice was light, "2 taels of gold!"

"Is there anyone else? Is there anyone else who is worth more than 2 taels of gold?" The madam asked again, looking at the wealthy businessman earnestly.

The wealthy businessman hesitated again and again, but still lowered his head.

Disappointment flashed across the madam's face, but after a while, she announced the final result with excitement, "2 taels of gold, from now on Miss Zhenhua will belong to Mr. Chu Ci!"

When Zhenhua on the high platform heard the word Chuci, her eyelids trembled suddenly.

Then, she climbed down from the bed and ran towards the second floor.

The bustard looked at this scene and joked, "I didn't expect Miss Zhenhua to be quite anxious..."

On the second floor, Miss Zhenhua finally ran outside the private room where Chu Ci was staying, but she was too timid to go in because of the proximity to her hometown.

Instead, he was outside, with a trembling voice, and asked word by word, "Chu... Mr. Chu, are you Doctor Chu?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Chu Ci subconsciously stood up, walked towards the outside of the screen, and said, "I'm Doctor Chu, I don't know if the girl is... Miss Zhenhua?"

Walking outside the screen, Chu Ci called out in surprise.

Miss Zhenhua saw Chu Ci's eyebrows and eyes at close range, and knelt down with a plop. She grabbed Chu Ci's clothes tightly, her makeup was blurred by tears, and said hoarsely, "Doctor Chu, I... I am Ye Zhen!"

Ye Zhen...

When Chu Ci heard this name, she thought about it for a long time before she remembered it. Then, she looked at the unparalleled woman with icy muscles and bones in disbelief, and said, "You...you are that fat girl...Ye Zhen? "

Ye Zhen nodded desperately, "It's me, it's me!"

"Then how...how did you come to Jinling and end up in this kind of place?"

Ye Zhen looked up at Chu Ci, and the tears of grievance and sadness flowed down again, "I... I took the medicine you prescribed for me, combined with exercise, and when the one-month period is up, although I haven't lost weight One hundred catties, but not much difference, I thought... I thought my Yue Lang would give me a chance to persuade his mother to accept me when he saw me working so hard..."

"But I didn't expect that he and my stepmother's younger sister would have a secret relationship...they teamed up and tricked me into drinking wine mixed with medicine, and then sold me to someone who was going to Jinling. My teeth..."

Hearing this, Chu Ci roughly understood what happened to her.

She sighed silently, bent over to help her up, then looked at her thin figure, and asked, "Then what are your plans now?"

Ye Zhen shook her head helplessly, "I don't know...there is no place for me in this world, let alone someone I can rely on...if it hadn't fallen into Chunniang's hands, I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll commit suicide long ago."

Chu Ci sighed, "Don't be like this, if you live, there will always be a bright day."

Ye Zhen heard her say this, her eyes suddenly lit up, she knelt down again, hugged her leg and said, "Why don't you take me in, Doctor Chu? Ye Zhen is willing to be a maid by your side ! Be a cow and a horse for you! Heartbroken, no hesitation! Repay your 2 taels of gold!"
