Chapter 61 You are also the only one

Tengge is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Lin'an City. It is connected to the Imperial Palace on the left, the General's Mansion, the Duke's Mansion and many other mansions on the right.

There are many teahouses and restaurants in the surrounding area, with flags flying and plaques everywhere.

The woman carrying the basket glanced at it from a distance and couldn't help but said: "I heard that a cup of tea in Tengge costs five taels of silver. What I'm drinking is not tea, it's obviously blood."

Five taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket in front of the dignitaries, but when it falls on the poor, it is a huge expense.

When the people on the side heard this, they turned around and said, "You don't even know whose name Teng Pavilion is under. It belongs to the Yi family. No one knows the virtues of Mr. Yi."

"By the way, the young master of the Chi family is also here this time. The noisy one is accompanied by more than a dozen boys. Those who don't know better think he is here to cause trouble."

However, there are many rules in Tengge, and even those young men cannot enter.

Chi Xingxun can only use crutches alone and walks with a limp, which is very funny.

"I still remember the scene when the man from the Duke's Mansion let the dog loose. Tsk tsk, the young master of the Chi family was so frightened that he jumped up and down. He didn't have the same complacency as before when he vented his breath through his nostrils."

As soon as he said this, many people around him laughed out loud.

It was actually Chi Xingxun who oppressed many people by taking advantage of the Chi family's status.

But there are also different voices: "Isn't this person from the Chi family a good guy, but the one from the Guogong Mansion? He raised animals as humans. You have also seen the fate of the Chi family. In the past, I was scared when I saw the dog.

I wish I could hide far away."

"Look, the prince's injuries were so serious this time that even the King of Hell didn't dare to accept him. Isn't that enough to explain everything?"

This statement also arouses criticism.

At least Gu Huaizhi never oppressed the people.

Even every time he takes action, he is very happy.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone squeezed up and grabbed the man's collar, then pushed him hard and said through gritted teeth.

"Chi Xingxun deserves it! He has done so few evil things over the years, right? My dad would have lost his life even if he just bought a piece of fruit on the street."

Chi Xingxun used his horse to commit the crime and trampled over his father.

His father was born low-born and was not as noble as these people.

But is this worthy of death?

Unfortunately, his father died on the spot. However, this person from the Chi family did not feel any guilt at all, and was a beautiful woman who played and sang every day.

My father passed away suddenly. When my mother heard the bad news, she didn't recover and followed him.

His family was ruined, but he didn't know how to write the words "kill for life"?

It's ridiculous that no one dares to take this case. No one dares to try it.

There is no way to report to the official, and there is no way out.

He only wants justice. But how can there be justice in this world?

The bloody document was destroyed by the government officials. He was kicked out of the government office many times, and was later charged with "falsely accusing the son of a court official and disturbing the court."

He took fifty hits and almost died.

After such a commotion, the surrounding area became quiet.

The woman carrying the basket quickly pulled her aunt who was talking with her just now and backed out.

Before the aunt could send a message, she sighed in a low voice: "The man just now is called Cheng You."

"The number of lives in Mr. Chi's hands is no longer one or two. This matter was such a big fuss at the time, so it's not like he was taken away."

"Behind the Chi family are the empress and the prince. How can ordinary people like us afford to offend them."

"It's pitiful that he managed to find one with great difficulty."

The commotion here dissipated like a farce and soon stopped.

At the same time, the Yi family's carriage quietly entered from the backyard of Teng Pavilion. Ruan Zhen got off the carriage and followed it to the private room on the third floor.

The Tengge is full of carved beams and paintings, and any random painting on the wall is expensive.

The third floor is much more deserted than the first and second floors. But it has a wider view. With the window open, you can take a closer look downstairs.

The silk and bamboo orchestral music was melodious, and the opera singers were famous actors from Lin'an.

Entering the elegant room, there is an ebony carved and embroidered screen, followed by a black lacquer pendente square table and pear wood carved chairs.

The Suanni incense burner is burning, and green smoke is swirling. The smell is light and elegant, and it smells indescribably good.

Yi Lin made the tea himself.

"I heard from my servants that the woman who made a fuss about not marrying you until a few years ago is here too."

Ruan Zhen's mind moved.

It was unimaginable to her that any woman would have the desire to marry Gu Huaizhi.

It is true that Gu Huaizhi looks very handsome, but his unpredictable temper is really bad. It is very troublesome to get along with him.

Gu Huaizhi was not interested and was too lazy to pay attention.

Yi Lin was not discouraged and continued: "However, I am holding my husband's hand now, and I feel so affectionate."

Ruan Zhen glanced at Gu Huaizhi out of the corner of his eye.

His slender, jade-like fingers were unpacking the delicate purse around his waist, and then he slowly put the cakes on the table into it piece by piece. There was no reaction at all to what Yi Lin said.

Yi Lin:...Damn it.

He quickly stopped him: "That's enough for you. Sister Ruan didn't even take a bite."

Gu Huaizhi was silent.

He glanced at Ruan Zhen, who had a puzzled look on his face, somewhat vindictively.

Then he speeded up, not leaving any piece behind for her, and took everything away.

"What does it have to do with me?"

"I hired this pastry chef from the Jiangnan area at a high price. The ingredients for this plate of pastries are expensive. You'd better take them all."

"Gu Huaizhi, ten taels of silver!"

Gu Huaizhi was about to tie it on when he heard this sentence and stopped.

He pursed his lips and asked warmly.

"Is it worth just that much?"

As he said that, he added: "It's really cheap."

Ten taels of silver!!!

A plate costs less than eight yuan. A small piece costs one or two yuan.

What is cheap!!!

However, Gu Huaizhi was able to stew five-hundred-year-old ginseng into Xiao Hui's soup. Looking at it this way, this pastry was indeed inconspicuous.

Yi Lin's chest hurt even more. He dug and searched and found money to fill the treasury.

Gu Huaizhi spent money without blinking an eye, but Emperor Hui never thought of taking a penny from him.

From Yi Lin's reaction, Ruan Zhen could already guess the purpose of that bag of cakes.

She opened her lips, her eyes fell on the beautifully embroidered purse, and she was speechless.

Act as a mute.

She lowered her eyes, took the freshly brewed tea, blew on it, and took a sip.

At this moment, a hand with distinct joints appeared in his sight.

He was slowly pushing his purse along the small square table and under Ruan Zhen's eyes.

Ruan Zhen's eyebrows skipped a beat, and she suddenly raised her head to look at the owner of the hand.

Just listen to the man's faint tone: "I'll give it all to you."

Ruan Zhen was silent for a while, always feeling humiliated.

Yi Lin was so excited that he turned around to comfort him: "Eat, you are the only one who can snatch something from Xiao Hui's mouth. In the past, he would rather destroy it than let anyone take any chances."

Gu Huaizhi squinted his eyes, his gaze passing over Ruan Zhen's delicate face.

He responded lazily.

"Um."
