Chapter 389 Give me back my man!
"Chen Wan, come out!"
A sharp female voice came from downstairs.
Shen Wan’s eyes tightened.
That’s right, this is Helian Bijun’s voice.
It's so cold, why doesn't this woman stay at the guest station to guard the Duke of Zhenguo? Why does she come here?
She was already furious, and now someone came to her door, how could she let go of this opportunity?
Thinking of this, Shen Wan immediately pulled Xie Mubai out of the space and went downstairs directly.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw the majestic Helian Bijun blocking the door with a large group of servants.
Lanyang City was extremely depressed. Apart from weddings and funerals, there was almost nothing lively to see in the city.
In addition, there was not much to do in winter, and when the people saw a large group of people coming to the house to cause trouble, they all came to watch, and even Chen Jiu and Chu Wei were among them.
Fearing that Helian Bijun might cause trouble, Hu Dahai, Hei Ying and others stood at the door and blocked her way.
"Auntie, do I know you?" Shen Wan frowned slightly and asked with ill intention.
When Helian Bijun heard this silly girl calling her "Auntie", she almost exploded with anger.
Although she is a little older, due to proper maintenance, her appearance looks no different from those young women in their thirties.
"Who are you calling 'Auntie'?" she asked with a pale face and gritted teeth.
Shen Wan raised her eyebrows and looked at her in surprise: "Oh my God, you look quite young, how come your brain is not working well?"
"I'm talking to you, Auntie, not anyone else!"
Seeing this little woman being so naughty, Wang Qi and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she still has the energy to argue with others.
It seems that Erbao is smart. As long as Xie Mubai takes the initiative to bow his head, any problem will not be a problem.
Helian Bijun was already furious, and upon hearing this, she was so angry that she trembled all over.
Her face turned pale and she said angrily, "You silly girl, stop talking nonsense to me and give my man back to me!"
Upon hearing this, the scene exploded immediately, like a drop of cold water falling into a frying pan.
No way?
Princess Lan Yang is young and beautiful, there is no reason for her to compete with an old lady for a man.
Although this lady is very beautiful, she is still an lady no matter how beautiful she is!
"Auntie, I think you are seriously ill." Shen Wan curled her lips, not hiding the disdain in her eyes at all, "I don't even know who your man is, how can I snatch him away?"
"Besides, you're already quite old, and your husband must be half dead by now."
"I'm only sixteen, I don't want to be a widow so early!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter.
Hu Dahai almost burst out laughing.
He pulled Xie Mubai forward and looked at Helian Bijun with a sneer: "See, this is my sister's man."
"May I ask, is your old man as good-looking as my brother-in-law?"
Although Xie Mubai is not easy-going and always has a cold face, no one can deny his good looks.
He perfectly inherited all the advantages of the Duke and his wife, and also had a sense of coldness and arrogance that they lacked.
Even Helian Bijun had to admit that he was more handsome than his father.
"Stop talking nonsense here." She said impatiently with a sullen face, "I heard from the servants that my husband has inquired about Shen Wan's situation."
"But after I made inquiries, he disappeared inexplicably and hasn't returned yet."
“If he said he wasn’t here to see Shen Wan, I guess even ghosts wouldn’t believe it.”
The Duke of Zhenguo is missing?
Hearing this, Shen Wan subconsciously exchanged a glance with Xie Mubai.
Could it be that because what I said was too harsh, he couldn't get over it and left?
No, it's impossible!
He said he had something very important to do.
But what could happen to him?
Is he going to assassinate the third prince to avenge the 100,000 soldiers who died tragically at Yumen Pass?
Thinking of this, Shen Wan suddenly felt a little regretful.
No matter what Zhenguo's public and private life was like, he was upright when it came to national justice. She couldn't deny everything about him just because of a little moral flaw.
"Why is your man asking about the young lady's situation?" Wang Qi said with a gloomy face and a forced smile, "Do I have reason to suspect that your man has bad intentions towards the young lady?"
"Actually, I can understand this. I'm a man too."
"Looking at that fierce old face every day, it's strange that he doesn't get tired of it."
"Listen to me, find a concubine for your man now, or he won't come home every day."
When it comes to viciousness, no one can compare to Wang Qi.
There wasn't a single swear word in it, but it was enough to make people mad.
"You...you..." Helian Bijun pointed at Wang Qi and couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Wang Qi smiled evilly: "You're welcome, I just like helping people."
Helian Bijun's face turned pale with anger.
She snatched the long knife from the servant's hand and slashed at Wang Qi viciously.
Since she can't win the argument, she'll just fight!
Looking at the sharp long knife, Wang Qi did not move.
He is surrounded by many experts, so how could he be afraid of such an old woman?
Sure enough, Hu Dahai stretched out his rough big hand.
However, he quickly took the long sword from Helian Bi's hand.
The tiger general that the son of luck had his eyes on was naturally not much worse in skills.
"Master Chu, are you still planning to continue watching the fun?" Xie Mubai glanced at the long sword on the ground and said coldly, "If anything happens to the princess, you, the head of the county, will also be held responsible."
Chu Wei's face turned pale.
I originally just wanted to watch the fun, but I didn't expect the ball to be kicked to me again.
But if he were asked to help that dead girl, how could he swallow the anger in his heart?
In desperation, he looked at Chen Jiu.
Chen Jiu understood and said with a smile: "My Lord, you can't say that."
"To be honest, I saw with my own eyes that foreign merchant go to the post station."
"Whether he goes to see the princess or not, as long as he goes in, you can't escape responsibility for this matter."
He didn't know Helian Bijun.
But he could tell at a glance that this old woman had an extraordinary identity and was definitely not an ordinary person.
If he could use her to get rid of Chen Wan, Lanyang City would still be his in the future.
By then, wouldn’t the price of coal be determined by a single word?
Seeing that Chen Jiu was about to cause trouble again, Wang Qi became annoyed.
"You said that old man came to the post station?" He immediately retorted, "I also said you were a spy sent by foreign countries. Otherwise, why would you defend them so desperately?"
"Nonsense!" Chen Jiu's face turned black with anger when he heard this.
Ever since the battle of Yumen Pass, the dog emperor has ordered officials from all regions to investigate suspicious individuals to prevent spies from sneaking in.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as there is the slightest suspicion, he will be thrown into jail.
Unfortunately, Wang Qi's reputation in the Wei Dynasty was too great. If his words were to get out, it would be a foregone conclusion that he was a spy.
"Why am I talking nonsense and you aren't?" Wang Qi sneered, "This post station is where the princess is staying. How can outsiders just come in casually?"
"You said that old man came here. Why didn't anyone else at the post station see him, but you did?"
"Don't think I don't know what you're planning. Isn't it just that the princess gave everyone some coal, cutting off your way of making money?"
When the people heard about coal, they couldn’t help but think of Shen Wan’s kindness.
If it weren't for her, they wouldn't know how they would have survived this winter.
So, the people began to speak for Shen Wan.
"I don't care!" Helian Bijun shouted sternly after hearing everyone's comments, "If you don't hand over someone today, no one will leave here alive!"
Before he finished speaking, the servants immediately drew out their shining long swords.
These guys are all Helian family's family soldiers, and each of them has extraordinary skills.
As long as the long sword is unsheathed, I will never stop until it is stained with blood!
