Chapter 739
To put it bluntly, although Chu Qianxing resented being raped by a woman, he relied on his identity and refused to be left behind. But his cousin...
Xiyun sighed faintly, that Mr. Wanqi was unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. No wonder the young lady wanted to run away. He came to Mo's house to propose marriage, probably because of the rumor.
It's just that others may have some affection for the young lady because of that rumor. I'm afraid this person is very ruthless.
"What are you sighing for? Could it be that you are sad for Mr. Chu?" the maid asked in a low voice.
Xiyun rolled her eyes at her: "The Chu family is indeed as beloved as rumored, but the cooking skills of the cooks in the other courtyard are extraordinary. It made me hungry. I will go to Zhuli Restaurant tomorrow to invite me to order the signature dish."
The maid laughed when she heard this: "Young girl said that, I'm really greedy." They went early and hadn't had dinner yet. Wan Qi Wusheng and Chu Qianxing didn't make it difficult for them, and asked the cook to bring a table of northern dishes.
, which is different from the exquisiteness of southern dishes, but it does taste like a different flavor.
Xiyun smiled and said no more, and the maid stepped aside in recognition of his interest.
The carriage arrived at the back door of Zuihua Building, and the maid helped Xiyun get out of the car and go in. It was a bit cold in the late autumn night, and the back door was even deserted. Except for a few dim lanterns and an old man guarding the door, there were only Xiyun and the little maid.
If you look at the front courtyard, no one will believe that there is such a deserted place in Zuihua Tower.
"Don't go back in a hurry, go get a lantern." Xiyun whispered, and the maid went to get a lantern. There was nothing good at the back door, just an ordinary lantern made of white paper.
Xiyun didn't pay attention. He personally picked up a lantern and walked slowly through the deserted courtyard at the back. The sound of cups and cups made of silk and bamboo could be heard faintly in front, and it was as lively as ever.
Chu Qianxing went to the backyard angrily and wanted to ask her cousin what he meant. He specially invited that shameless woman, but he only spoke half of the words!
However, when Chu Qianxing arrived outside the Wanqi Wusheng Courtyard, he was stopped by a secret guard: "Young Master, the young master has already rested and ordered not to see anyone."
"I won't see anyone!" Chu Qianxing felt like he was going to be furious. He and his cousin were the only two people in the other courtyard. Saying that he didn't see anyone at this time was clearly aimed at him!
Cousin, cousin clearly wants to suffocate him to death!
Chu Qianxing went back to his room angrily.
The Cangjiang River is located in the south, and it will not freeze even in the coldest winters. Throughout the year, there is no shortage of ships to make a living on it, regardless of spring floods or autumn droughts. Now it is late autumn, and there are no big ships on the river, only some exquisite turrets and painted boats.
Zuihua House is the largest flower house in the local area, and naturally there is no shortage of things on the river. Xiyun boarded a two-story building boat early in the morning and made tea leisurely. The maid looked at the shore by the window.
There were many people coming and going between Jiang Wu, but there was no one that my girl wanted to see.
"Girl, is Mr. Chu scared?" Seeing that the fog was about to dissipate, half of the sun's face emerged from the clouds, shining brightly on the river, and even the inside of the boat was a little brighter. Chu Qian was not visible yet.
Come on, the maid couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry, he will come." Xiyun chuckled softly, with a certain kind of certainty, "Since he hates me for bullying him that day, he will definitely not be willing to show his cowardice today."
If Chu Qianxing had taken her words as a joke to get rid of him yesterday, then early this morning, the secret agents watching her outside Zuihua Building had already passed the news to him, and he would naturally come. It was just a matter of time, or that Wan Wan would come.
Mr. Qi refused to allow him to come.
If it was the latter, Xiyun lowered his eyes, but the slight smile on his lips remained unchanged: "Go get my Pipa."
The maid hurriedly agreed. As soon as she got out, she heard the boat girl below saying: "Master Chu is here. The girl has asked Master Chu to come upstairs to talk."
What a coincidence. The maid smiled to herself and brought Liu Ye'er's pipa from the room next to her. She saw Chu Qianxing coming up, looking unhappy.
"Mr. Chu, please invite my girl." The maid smiled.
Chu Qianxing's expression was not only bad, but couldn't be worse. He was choked to death by Wan Qi Wusheng last night. He received news early this morning that Miss Xiyun from Zuihua House had taken the cook to the boat. He
I can't figure out what this woman wants to do, just like I can't guess what Mo Shangshang is thinking, but this woman is even more hateful.
Seeing Chu Qianxing coming in, Xiyun seemed not to have seen his expression, and just added a cup of freshly brewed tea: "Young Master Chu is here by chance, why not try Xiyun's craftsmanship."
Chu Qianxing looked at this woman warily. Today she was wearing a plain gray-blue vine skirt. She was not as delicate and pitiful as the one he saw last night. She looked a little hazy through the water vapor rolling up.
The meaning of dust.
"Mr. Chu, are you afraid that Xiyun added something to it?" Seeing that Chu Qianxing didn't move, Xiyun asked with a smile, holding the tea that he added and slowly drank half a cup, "Mr. Chu, you can rest assured now.
?”
"I'm not talking about fishing." Chu Qianxing didn't bother to care whether she had drugged her or not. What could she do on this river today?
Xiyun raised her eyes and looked at him angrily: "Master Chu is really ignorant." After saying that, he looked at the maid aside, took the pipa and said, "Go tell the boat girl."
The maid nodded and glanced at Chu Qianxing before leaving. That look seemed to have a deep meaning, which made Chu Qianxing's heart tremble. She couldn't help but be wary, fearing that she would fall into this woman's trap again.
Seeing Chu Qianxing's vigilance, Xiyun didn't pay attention. She just lowered her head and plucked the pipa strings, intermittently and out of tune. She had suffered such a big loss, and he was afraid that he would feel sick when he saw her in a short time.
Not long after, the boat reached the middle of the river. Xiyun asked Chu Qianxing to come to the side of the boat. The boat lady brought a fishing rod, as if she was just here to fish.
Chu Qianxing was not sure what she meant for a moment. No, he was not sure what this woman was thinking from the beginning.
However, he took it as he came. Seeing that Xiyun made no other moves and did not always mention the previous things like last night, Chu Qianxing could still hold his nerve and wanted to see what she was going to do.
However, what made Chu Qianxing heartbroken was that Xiyun invited him here today. It was really nothing more than catching a few fresh fish and asking the chef to make a full fish feast for him to taste.
It wasn't until he got off the boat that Chu Qianxing suddenly believed that Xiyun really didn't mean to tease him today, which made him feel even worse.
How could Chu Qianxing not understand now that Xiyun was sure that he would not be able to save his face and retaliate against her, so she mentioned that matter again and again to make him angry.
What does she mean by this situation now?
Chu Qianxing couldn't figure it out for a while. He didn't see Wan Qi Wusheng when he returned to the other courtyard. He heard from the secret guard that he went to Liang's house after leaving Mo's house, so he went to Liang's house again.
At this time, the Liang family was busy, because Liang Yunrong had arrived yesterday, and the funeral in the Liang family's main room should also be finished. Although it was cool in the autumn, several corpses had been in the coffins for two months, and even putting ice could not stop the smell.
, the second roommate was impatient for a long time, but it was too embarrassing to say it because of the face, so naturally he hurriedly brought it up now.
For the second wife, it doesn't matter whether the eldest brother was in an accident or was murdered. What matters is that the eldest brother finally moved his position.
However, this matter was opposed by Liang Yunrong, who insisted on waiting for Chen Xili to re-investigate and reach a conclusion before burying him.
Mr. Shao and his daughter Liang Yunrou tried to persuade Liang Yunrong in the backyard for a long time, but they did not persuade her to let go. Instead, they alarmed Chen Xili who was in the front yard.
Chen Xili came to discuss with Liang Yuwu the death of Liang Yuwen. After all, two months had passed and a lot of evidence might have been lost. If someone really tried to kill Liang Shangshu, his younger brother might have more evidence than the government office.
More.
Wan Qi Wusheng came with Chen Xili. Wan Qi Wusheng was invited by Mo Mingxuan this morning. He was originally going to talk about what happened last night, but before the conversation could be raised, Eunuch Lin came to the door and announced his decree.
, first a marriage and then a reward, it can be said to be a double happiness. The relatives and friends who heard about it and came to congratulate them kept both Mo Mingxuan and Gu busy.
When Chen Xili heard the news, he was also shocked. He didn't expect the king to be so generous. He originally thought that he would be a county king. But no matter what, since Wan Qi Wusheng had the throne, he invited him to participate in the Liang Dynasty.
In the case of Shangshu's death, it was justifiable.
