Chapter 22

The leading guard glanced at Hua Qingchen, and grinned: "So it's Mr. Hua. There must be some misunderstanding between the two of you. Everyone is a respectable person, so find a place to have a good talk and clear up the misunderstanding." Are you all right soon, why do you have to make such a big fight?"

Mu Xirao only knew his name, but didn't know his background. Judging by the guard's attitude, he must be a big man who can't be underestimated.

Mo Hanling glanced at Hua Qingchen curiously, what is the origin of this man who has repeatedly opposed him?Last time, he was able to appear in the Taifu's mansion openly and aboveboard. This time, even the people in the yamen knew him. It seemed that he was really not to be underestimated.

"It's not a misunderstanding, it's just that I don't like the power of others." Hua Qingchen didn't intend to let go, and hurt Mo Hanling when he opened his mouth.

Mo Hanling's face became more and more gloomy, and he rushed forward unconvinced, ready to tremble again.Fortunately, the guard stopped him in front of Mo Hanling.

"My lord, my lord, if you have something to say, don't be angry, don't be angry." The guard was tactful and sophisticated, while comforting the angry tsundere lord, he persuaded the aloof Hua Qingchen.

Mu Xirao also didn't want to make things out of hand, if the news of her intentionally raising the price reached the ears of the noble concubine, it would ruin her mind.

Letting go of Mu Chuchu beside him, Xirao walked in front of Hua Qingchen, and thanked him with a slight smile: "Thank you again, Mr. Hua, for your rescue, please let Mr. Hua show your respect for this matter, let's forget it for the time being. After all, it is us women who are embarrassed."

Hua Qingchen smiled lightly, as if what she said made sense, so she said that she would not bother anymore.

Mu Xirao thanked her, then turned around and returned to Mu Chuchu's side, pulling her away first.

Hua Qingchen couldn't help but wryly smiled, she was her savior after all, why did she have such a cold attitude towards her savior.

No matter how provocative Mo Hanling was, Hua Qingchen followed Mu Xirao's leaving footsteps.

Mu Chuchu was a little confused, so she turned her head and forgot to take a look at Hua Qingchen who was following up, and then looked at the coldness on Mu Xirao's face, and asked her: "You knew Mr. Hua before? He followed up?" , do you want to wait for him?"

"It's just that we met a few times, I'm not familiar with it! If he wants to follow, let her follow. I didn't build this road." Mu Xirao didn't know why she wanted to avoid him, but she felt a little uneasy when she was alone with him Ning, as if drugged, was flustered and ran around like a rabbit.She knew that this was a bad omen, she would soon marry and be his wife, she shouldn't and couldn't have any illusions about him!

Hua Qingchen was not in a hurry, and followed behind her keeping a distance of several people.When passing by a restaurant, he dragged Mu Chuchu in and asked the shopkeeper to take him to a luxurious private room.

As soon as the two of them took their seats, a figure flashed in, and upon closer inspection, Hua Qingchen was already seated next to Mu Xirao.

Mu Xirao's face suddenly became gloomy and cold, what the hell is Hua Qingchen going to do with her today!
"Hua Qingchen, what on earth are you a big man doing with me? You don't sit in so many seats. Why do you squeeze a table with us two women? Do you have eye problems or a blocked reaction? Can't you see that you are not affected by me? Are you welcome?" Mu Xirao glared at him angrily, men and women are different, not to mention that he is about to marry a woman, doesn't it mean he doesn't know how to avoid suspicion at all!
Hua Qingchen frowned, as if he didn't agree with her words, he turned to look at Mu Chuchu who was silent at the side: "Don't Miss Mu welcome Hua as well?"

Mu Chuchu let out a chuckle, looking at Mu Xirao who was annoyed and at a loss, and Hua Qingchen who had a calm face, it seemed like a couple having a fight.

"Young Master Hua, you are joking. You are the great benefactor of our two sisters. Since you are both here, let's have a meal together, which is considered to repay your righteousness and rescue just now!" Chu Chu spoke generously, but under the gentle surface, there was a man's bold Qi.

Mu Xirao couldn't help howling, trying desperately to avoid him, but he appeared in front of her lingeringly.Could it be that the old man really wanted to make fun of himself for falling into this man's nightmare of laughter?

what!Xi Rao went crazy for a while, and jumped out of her seat with a thud.

Hua Qingchen looked at her in confusion, and joked with a smile: "Could it be that the fourth lady is so unwilling to see your savior? In fact, I'm just curious? Why did the two ladies start a fight with the first prince Tang Tang?" Do you know that this will be punished as disrespect?"

Xi Rao's face was stiff, looking at Hua Qingchen's elegant and eye-catching smile, something seemed to sink in her heart, and said in a cold voice: "I'll go wash my hands, big sister, don't betray your sister!"

Mu Chuchu smiled lightly and shook her head: "Okay, I won't betray you. Go and come back quickly, the food will be served later."

With Mu Chuchu's assurance, Xi Rao took a hard look at Hua Qingchen, and left reluctantly.

Hua Qingchen looked at Mu Chuchu with doubts in his eyes, and asked with a low voice: "Why did you offend Lord Ling? You look like a murderer, and you can see that he is very angry!"

Mu Chuchu showed a hint of amusement, but replied with a deep meaning: "Mo Hanling spent 1000 taels to buy an ink painting by Young Master Hua Qi."

Hua Qingchen, who was as smart as him, understood the reason immediately, and couldn't help smiling: "I didn't expect Mr. Hua Qi to become so popular."

Smiling, Hua Qingchen asked curiously: "Could it be that Miss Fourth also likes Mr. Hua Qi's paintings?"

With a puff, this time it was Mu Chuchu's turn to chuckle out of composure, Mu Xirao, she didn't know anything about celebrity calligraphy and painting, she just wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price.

"Yesterday, the imperial concubine sent rewards to several younger sisters. The four younger sisters felt that the reward from concubine concubine could not be taken for nothing, like buying a painting as a gift. Unexpectedly, they met Mo Hanling, and they formed a relationship for a portrait. "

Hua Qingchen still had a gentle smile on his face, but in his heart he was wondering what the relationship between Mu Xirao and Concubine Concubine was.

Mu Xirao angrily left the private room, and walked straight towards the corridor, originally wanting to come out to get some air and calm down her mood.But when passing by a private room, he inadvertently glanced at the willow branch.

Quietly hiding outside the window, Xi Rao listened to the conversation inside with pointed ears.I only heard Liu Zhi's sneering voice floating in the room: "Mei Xue, this is Mr. Xue, the second Mr. Xue, although Mr. Xue is young, he is both civil and military. He is going to take the imperial examination this year. This child Ru Yi I watched her grow up since I was a child, and she is half my own daughter. The youngest child in the Mu Mansion is about to get married, but Ru Yi, as the second sister, is still in her boudoir. People who don't know outside think that it is me, the head of the house, who is right. Ru Yi is mean. Mei Xue, Ru Yi is a serious wife when she is married, and she will be married in a sedan chair."

Mei Xue, who was sitting by the willow branch, looked at Mr. Xue, but he was dignified and elegant in speech.If Mu Ruyi really married, she would be able to become a real wife, which is much better than being someone else's concubine.

"Mr. Xue's conditions are very good. How dare we choose anything. Just wait for that girl Ru Yi to come over, and the marriage will be settled." Home, compared to that Mu Xirao, I don't know how many times better.If it were Mr. Xue's imperial examination high school, wouldn't the days of great success be just around the corner.

With the small calculation in her heart, Mei Xue followed Mr. Xue to tell the interesting stories about Mu Ruyi's childhood.

"Ru Yi, hurry up. My mother and second mother are still waiting for us. It's all your fault. It took me a long time to choose a gift, which made us late." Mu Yu came from downstairs. Wei complained, Xi Rao hurriedly left, opened the door and hid in the private room where there was no one on the other side.

The door creaked, and Mu Yuwei dragged Mu Ruyi to appear in front of several people.

As soon as Mei Xue saw Mu Ruyi coming, she immediately got up and pulled her to sit beside Mr. Xue.

"Ru Yi, this is Xue Yuanwai's second son, and I haven't met Xue Gong soon." Mei Xue looked at the two with a smile on her face, and her heart was full of joy.

Then Mu Ruyi stood up, bowed to Mr. Xue and said, "Mu Ruyi has met Mr. Xue."

The voice was soft, but with a hint of displeasure.When Mu Xirao walked out of the room, she heard Mu Ruyi's voice faintly.

Raising eyebrows and lips and smiling, Mu Xirao quickly went downstairs and walked out of the restaurant.

But Hua Qingchen couldn't sit still anymore, he just went to wash his hands, why did he go for most of the meeting, maybe he slipped away while taking advantage of it.

"Miss Mu, you sit down first, and Hua goes out to see why Xiao Er hasn't served the food yet." Hua Qingchen got up and walked out after making an unreliable excuse.

Mu Chuchu just nodded with a smile, it could be seen that Hua Qingchen wanted to go out to find her angry fourth sister.I can't help but hinder the two of them ignorantly.

Raising her hand to pick up the teacup in front of her, a trace of desolation suddenly flashed in Mu Chuchu's eyes.

Hua Qingchen looked around for Mu Xirao, but left the restaurant without seeing her figure.In a remote alley around the corner, I saw Mu Xirao's back, talking to someone in a low voice, but couldn't hear clearly because of the distance.

Although Hua Qingchen was puzzled in his heart, he felt a little comforted when he saw her and did not slip away.After straightening his clothes, he shouted loudly, "Miss Mu Si, where are you? Dinner is almost ready."

When Mu Xirao heard that Hua Qingchen was looking for her, she hurriedly dismissed the woman who was with her, and quickly put her hand on her birthmark before walking out of the alley.

"What's your name, you're a starved ghost reincarnated!" Mu Xirao walked out of the alley and bumped into Hua Qingchen who came, and shouted angrily at him.

Hua Qingchen chuckled and looked at her frowning.He was puzzled, when she met him for the first time, she was obviously respectful and polite to him, but why did she always look fierce in these few meetings, could it be that he offended her somewhere?
"Miss Si, I have saved you a few times anyway, why do you treat me like this? Could it be that I offended you?" Hua Qingchen asked with a smile.

Mu Xirao pursed her lips slightly, in fact, it seemed that he really had nothing to offend her, it was just that she didn't want to have any contact with this man, otherwise when her heart sank, she would be the one who was hurt.

"Isn't it time for dinner? What are you still dawdling about here? Let's go!" Guiltyly glaring at him, Xi Rao passed by and walked in front of him.

When I returned to the elegant room, the table was already filled with fragrant dishes.Mu Xirao sat down on her own, and picked up the chopsticks on the table to pick up the dishes.

Hua Qingchen also sat down, added a glass of sake for himself, raised his head and sipped it lightly.
