Forced marriage: ruffian king, I will not marry

Chapter 9
Under the orange light, Pei Yuqi's long body was leaning, lying in front of the table, holding a book in his hand, watching calmly, as if no one could break into his world.This person was the white-clothed man that Shangguan Xi had met before, and he changed into a blue one, which made him look more gentle, and also concealed a bit of ruffianism.

"Master, this subordinate is back."

Someone outside the door asked for instructions, and the person inside the room just put the book in his hand, and the lazy sitting posture remained unchanged, and said calmly, "Come in."

Shen Jun pushed the door and entered, bringing in a gust of breeze, then closed the door again, and bowed his head to Pei Yu to compose, with no slack on his cold face.

"What's the matter?" He raised his eyes to look at Shen Jun, there seemed to be ripples in his eyes, clear and dazzling, making people dare not look directly at them, even if he was as cold as Shen Jun, he quickly looked back after a quick glance.

She lowered her face, "The subordinates have arranged all the financial resources and manpower, and Miss Shangguan also sent her back in the morning, there is nothing wrong with it."

"You did a good job, did the third lady say anything?" Pei Yu didn't know when there was an extra object in his hand, and he played it flexibly between his fingers, bringing out faint red light.

Shen Jun looked puzzled, she didn't know why the master paid so much attention to the third lady, but her identity did not allow her to be too suspicious, so she could only respond obediently, "Miss Shangguan didn't want to come back with her subordinates earlier, and she came back later I didn't take any action, but finally let the subordinates pass the message to the master, saying that they will definitely get back her Hu Xinyu."

"Huxinyu?" Pei Yu spit out these three words slowly, and then stopped the movement of his hands. He lifted the jade pendant to check it against the light, "So it's called Huxinyu, a rare treasure in the world , why did it appear on this unfavored Miss Shangguan?"

The hidden power of this jade pendant can only be felt as soon as he grasps it in his hand, and after carrying it close to his body for a few days, he can feel a faint warm force pouring into his body, opening up the eight meridians, stabilizing the breath and strengthening the foundation.He thought that if he used it to assist his practice, he would definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort, but his skill had already surpassed the ordinary level, and if he became greedy again, he might go crazy, so he had to carry it with him to adjust his breath, which was much more practical.

Shen Jun only quickly looked up at Hu Xinyu in the master's hand, then lowered her head and said nothing, she knew that the master was just talking to himself, not asking her.

Putting down her raised hand, somehow she suddenly remembered the woman's crazy crying and laughing and pretending to be calm, Pei Yu smiled and said: "She wants to return the jade pendant, but she will have to wait until the next time we meet to see how I feel."

see you next time?Shen Jun could hear the affirmation in Pei Yu's tone, but the two of them seemed to have no intersection, why did they meet recently, did the master want to find her in person?

"I don't know, my subordinates, when is the next meeting?" As soon as the words were spoken, Shen Jun immediately realized that he had violated the rules, and this should not be the question she wanted to ask.

She glanced nervously at Pei Yu, just as he was looking at him, there seemed to be accusations in his eyes, she lowered her head in shame.

"The Shufang banquet held by the prince will be ten days later, right?"

After panicking for a while, the master's leisurely voice sounded out. From the brisk tone, it could be heard that he seemed to be looking forward to this banquet.

Shen Jun frowned slightly and thought about it. When it came to the topic just now, she suddenly realized, "Master, what you mean is that Miss Shangguan San will also go? It's just that Miss San rarely shows up outside, so why would she go to such a banquet?"

Everyone knows that because of the shy face of Miss Shangguan, she seldom shows up outside, and because of her low status in the mansion, it is almost impossible for her to be brought to a scene like the Shufang Banquet.

Pei Yujun smiled brightly, threw Hu Xinyu in his hand high, and then obediently fell back into his palm, "She will go, someone will ask her to go."

His tone was confident and cheerful, which made Shen Jun feel his joy.

Shen Jun looked at his smile in a daze, but suddenly, Pei Yu's complexion changed, and before Shen Jun could react, a brush was coming straight towards her face, rubbing her ears and temples quickly And go, look back, have seen the round hole in the window paper.

There was no muffled sound, only a slight rustling sound, Shen Jun was taken aback, and immediately prepared to chase after him, but Pei Yu raised his hand to stop him.

"You don't need to go, Shen Feng should have already gone, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch up."

Being able to appear under the guard of the mansion, and being able to reach out and dodge his attack very quickly, this person's skill cannot be underestimated. He has lost the opportunity, and he will definitely not be able to catch up if he pursues now.

Seeing the master looking thoughtfully at the position of the small hole in the window, Shen Jun also frowned and thought, without saying a word.

At night, there was a faint noise that confused people in the quiet night, making people unable to sleep at all.Early in the morning, Shangguan Xi was awakened by the more intense quarrel outside, and his mood was really not good.

She came out after she was fully dressed, and was facing Xixia who opened the door, her expression seemed to be angry, but she couldn't vent her anger loudly, her face was red all over.

"What happened?"

Shangguanxi asked and realized that Xixia was dumb, only to see Xixia squeaking and making dumb voices, her hands didn't know what she was gesticulating, she couldn't understand, so she had to go around her and go out to have a look Condition.

Outside the door, Xi Xiao and a woman in orange clothes were having a vocal battle, both sides refused to give in, and their faces were flushed red from the quarrel.

The orange-clothed woman was dressed brightly, she should be the second-class maidservant in the mansion, because her dress was superior to others, she suppressed Xi Xiao's aura, her sharp mouth was very agile.She was holding a brown-haired puppy in her hand, round and round, but not as flexible as yesterday.

Shangguan Xi walked forward slowly with a calm expression, and was five steps away from the two of them when the maidservant in orange locked her gaze and made a gesture of sarcasm: "Miss San, you finally came out , do you think you can avoid guilt by hiding in the room? I didn't expect the third lady to be so vicious, she even poisoned our young lady's Le'er!"

The maid reprimanded Shangguan Xi, no less than when she quarreled with Xi Xiao.I don't know if it was a coincidence, but following her sharp reprimand, many servants quickly gathered in the secluded He Fang Yuan, looking into the courtyard to watch the show.

It turned out that it was because of a dog that he came to ask for a crime!

That day, the food was only lightly poisoned, and for humans, it would take a long time to accumulate to cause severe damage. Even a dog would not die immediately. If a dog could find a slight poison in its body before it had any obvious symptoms and come to the door, it would be even worse. It's amazing!

Seeing Shangguanxi just observing the dog in her hand but not speaking, the maid was very upset, "Miss San, don't play dumb, Le'er was sent by the master from Luofu Kingdom, the breed is rare, and the eldest lady is even more Don't worry, baby, you will be severely punished for such vicious actions!"

"Heavy punishment?" Shangguanxi looked up at the arrogant maid, his eyes were dim and sharp, "Are you going to trade your life for your life?"
