"Haha, if he wants to cause trouble, let him do it."
Chu Yi held her waist and didn't care about this little thing at all.
"Given the status of your Majesty and me in this room, the only people he could possibly offend are the dancers at the back."
Xiao Ling thought so too and stopped worrying about it.
But soon, a very heavy sound of footsteps came from downstairs, and it sounded like someone was coming up to cause trouble.
Xiao Ling stopped teasing the cat, then grabbed Chu Yi's robe with both hands and looked up at Chu Yi.
"I think it's the general who made the bid just now. Who do you think it is?"
Chu Yi shook his head and did not answer, but put his hand on the little empress's waist.
"Don't guess, you'll know when you come in."
Bang--
Soon, there was a loud kick outside the door, and the tightly closed door was kicked open by someone outside.
"Who dares to snatch my cat away in front of me...Brother?"
The person who came spoke in a very aggressive tone, and he seemed not to be worried at all that the person in the room was more powerful than him.
But before he could finish his sentence, he was stunned when he saw Chu Yi sitting on the bench.
The person who came was Chu Yan.
Chu Yan just stared blankly at his elder brother who was sitting on the chair, and his sister-in-law who was in his elder brother's arms, looking towards the door with a very curious look...?
No, he can't call her sister-in-law now. After all... she should be Her Majesty the Empress.
Chu Yan was stunned, and Xiao Ling, who was lying on Chu Yi's shoulder and looking towards the door, was also stunned for a moment.
Then their eyes met, and she quickly buried her head in front of Chu Yi, pulling at Chu Yi's clothes with both hands and whispering:
"Chu thief, why is it...your third brother?"
At this time, Chu Yan also regained his composure. Seeing Wen Zheng in Xiao Ling's arms, he immediately understood everything.
It turns out that he had just raised the price to one million and was about to get this little beast, but in the end, it was his own eldest brother who intervened and snatched the kitten away?
Chu Yan was a little confused when he realized this situation, but his anger disappeared in an instant.
Since his elder brother used this cat to fool the little emperor, he really had no choice but to give it up.
Finally, Chu Yi pushed away the little empress in front of her, then stood up and looked at Chu Yan.
"Third brother, look at you. You haven't even married yet, so why would you want a cat? Just give it to your eldest sister-in-law."
"If Big Brother wants it, there's no reason not to give it to him, but..."
Chu Yan responded obediently, but glanced at Xiao Ling who was beside his elder brother. "If you're just giving it to the little emperor, it would be a waste of talent."
Chu Yi frowned upon hearing this, "She's your sister-in-law after all, how can you say that?"
Faced with the scolding, Chu Yan did not say anything, but just retreated silently.
Soon there was the sound of footsteps fading away.
Chu Yi looked helpless, but he knew that he owed him something because of his decision, so he didn't want to scold him too much.
Xiao Ling, who was standing next to him, was also in a bad mood. "Chu thief, your third brother is obviously still holding a grudge..."
"He has always had a stubborn temper." Chu Yi explained, grabbing the little ball next to him with one hand.
"Is there anything else you need?"
Xiao Ling saw that Chu Yi was planning to go back, and immediately shook his head, "Getting Xiaotuan is a pleasant surprise, why not go back earlier."
Chu Yi nodded when he heard that, and the two of them followed Xiao Tuan downstairs.
At this time, the streets outside were still bustling.
The two walked along the street. In order to avoid becoming the focus, Chu Yi even hid Xiaotuan in his sleeves.
But before they had gone far, a sudden commotion broke out in the distance.
Among the intertwined crowd, suddenly more than a dozen scholars dressed as students walked towards this side, as if they had a clear goal.
"Did something happen? Why do I feel like a group of people are coming towards Tianxia Trading Company?"
The first person to realize that something was wrong was Xiao Ling. She stared blankly at the scholars in the distance.
Chu Yi frowned and pulled Xiao Ling to hide beside the street.
Soon, the two realized that these scholars were coming towards them!
"Everyone, look! It really is good!"
"The traitor is right here!"
Suddenly, someone pointed in the direction where Chu Yi was standing, and then the scholars gathered around.
"Everyone!"
"We are all the pillars of our country. It is our unshirkable responsibility to eradicate the traitors in the court and restore peace to the world. Now that we have the support of that lord, we must let this Chu villain taste our power!"
"Yes, kill this treacherous official of the Chu family who is causing harm to the people! Even if we lose, with the adults protecting us, we are destined to leave our names in history!"
It was obvious that everyone was coming for Chu Yi.
Discovering Chu Yi on the street was like a hungry wolf discovering its prey.
These scholars were shouting about benevolence and righteousness, traitors, and leaving their names in history, and they rushed towards Chu Yi waving the weapons in their hands.
For a moment, the crowd on the originally bustling street became panicked and scattered.
Chu Yi's face turned pale when he heard the scholars' shouts, and he felt so ridiculous in his heart that he felt these impulsive scholars were ridiculous.
After just a few noisy words, he realized what had happened.
It was indeed an accident for him.
These scholars from other places were truly inexperienced and fearless. Just because of the instigation of some people, they dared to assassinate the Minister of Personnel, themselves, in the street.
Are you worried that you won't be able to safely take part in the Spring Examination at the end of the month?
Of course, perhaps these scholars were not intending to assassinate the person, but because they had gained a bad reputation, these impulsive scholars wanted to disgust themselves and become famous overnight.
But Chu Yi couldn't expose himself to danger.
Glancing behind him, Chu Yi discovered that Xu Zizhuo didn't seem to be following him. After thinking for a while, he looked towards Tianxian Garden behind him.
"Let's go inside and take shelter first."
Having made up his mind, Chu Yi pulled the little empress, who was still standing there in a daze, into the brothel behind him.
The madam of Tianxianyuan was stunned for a moment when she saw a young man pulling a woman in, but her eyes fell on Chu Yi. With her sharp eyes, she seemed to realize that Chu Yi looked familiar.
But soon, the words of a group of angry scholars outside made her suddenly realize.
"Brother Liu, this dog official has entered a brothel!"
"Oh, you're indeed a scum of the civil service, even escaping is so embarrassing. Come on, let's charge in!"
"That's right. While there's no one around him, let's catch this treacherous minister and teach him a lesson!"
"Such a treacherous and treacherous person, who oppressed the emperor and harmed the people, is still sitting so comfortably in the position of Shangshu. I am ashamed to be accepted into this sect!"
This group of scholars seemed to have obtained a golden medal of immunity from death thanks to the words of the adults behind them, and they clamored to teach the dignified Minister of Personnel a lesson.
The madam had very sharp ears and quickly reacted to the anger of these scholars.
She wondered why the man looked familiar, and it turned out to be the current official from the Ministry of Personnel!
Lord Chu!
