Chapter 56 Why are you messing around if you don't buy it?
Although the weather was sunny, the temperature was extremely low. Even Daben, wearing a knitted sweater, became a lazy donkey and walked slowly.
Feng Qingsui really couldn't understand why someone would leave the carriage and ride so fast in the cold wind.
I can only sigh: the qi and blood are really good.
Then he took out some fragrant roasted sweet potatoes from the stove and gave one to Qi, Wuhua and others, and ate them while drinking tea.
Ning Fengluan, who said "I have great energy and blood", sneezed as soon as she rode out of the city.
I feel a bit of a headache.
But he looked back at the donkey cart and horse carriage moving at a snail's pace behind him, gritted his teeth and continued forward.
She wanted this white horse, this red cloak, this wildly flying hair, and this beautiful and resolute face to be deeply engraved in Ji Changqing's mind, becoming a stunning moment that he would never forget.
There are countless gentle women in this capital, but they are all the same and nothing special.
Only she, Ning Fengluan, is unique and stands out.
She is a crane that stands out among chickens, a phoenix that is rare among unicorns.
He searched everywhere for her, and when he turned around, she was standing among the blooming mountain flowers.
"Achoo—Achoo—Achoo—"
Ji Changqing, who was reading documents in the carriage, heard the long series of sneezes, frowned, and said to Baifu, the driver, "Move aside, don't get your nose stained."
A hundred blessings will come.
Ning Fengluan carried it all the way and when she arrived at Baiyun Temple, she felt dizzy and drowsy.
But when he saw the look Ji Changqing gave him when he got out of the car, he immediately cheered up.
"The effort was worth it."
She thought happily.
Ji Changqing: He's out of breath after walking such a short distance. This horse has such poor endurance. It's good-looking but useless.
Bai Ma: o(╥﹏╥)o I go to work on an empty stomach.
There are far more people burning incense on the first day of the Lunar New Year than on the first and fifteenth days of other days. There are also many vendors, jugglers, beggars, fortune tellers, etc.
Shouts, cheers, begging, and cries of begging...one after another, making the scene extremely lively.
Feng Qingsui has traveled with his master for many years and is knowledgeable. He can tell at a glance who are the scammers, who are the charlatans, and who really need help.
As he walked, he reminded the kind-hearted Qi to prevent the money from flowing into the hands of those who had more money.
Ning Fengluan secretly despised her petty appearance. She threw money as she walked, attracting a group of people to come around and ask for money.
In the blink of an eye, all the money on him was gone.
Seeing several young men in front of him surrounding a woman with a straw sign that read "Selling myself to bury my father" written on it, looking at her wantonly and speaking rudely, Feng Qingsui walked past Qi without even looking at her, and his contempt for her increased a little.
It is said that Madam Ji sympathizes with the poor and helps the weak. She either donates clothes to the orphanage or treats people regardless of their background. How come she looks so indifferent when she sees the poor people who are in urgent need of help?
It can be seen that those deeds were deliberately done to show off to others and to gain fame and reputation.
However, there is no good or bad without comparison. Feng's indifference just highlights her enthusiasm, allowing Ji Changqing to see her kind side.
So when those young men were bidding against each other, she drew the whip from her waist, strode forward, and whipped each of them.
He shouted coldly: "Get out of here!"
Several young men were caught off guard and beaten, looking at her in astonishment.
"What are you looking at? You're allowed to bully men and women, but I'm not allowed to uphold justice!"
Then he said to the woman kneeling on the ground, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. They won't be able to take advantage of you."
The woman knelt for a whole morning before waiting for several wealthy young men to come. She was looking forward to becoming the concubine of one of them to escape her current predicament, but unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin appeared and ruined her hopes.
"Why did you hit someone?"
She was furious.
"It's against the law to hit someone, did you know that?"
Ning Fengluan was stunned: "I'm helping you."
Is this woman sick? She was kind enough to help her, but she actually scolded her?
The woman pointed to the grass sign behind her head and asked, "Do you want to buy me? I need fifty taels of silver to pay off my family's debts and bury my father."
Ning Fengluan had spent all her money long ago, so how could she afford to buy her?
Even if she had one, she wouldn't buy it because she doesn't lack maids.
“No.”
She replied.
"If you don't want to buy it, why are you messing around?"
The woman cursed.
"They beat these kind-hearted gentlemen like this. How outrageous!"
The young masters echoed in agreement, "That's right. My father has never laid a finger on me in my life, and yet you, a shrew, beat me up. How are you going to compensate me?"
"I've been beaten until I'm bleeding. I must sue the authorities!"
"Since you have a decent face, if you come back with me, I can spare your life."
Ning Fengluan was furious.
"Do you know who I am? I'm the eldest daughter of the Ningguo Mansion. You're not even worthy of carrying my shoes, yet you dare to covet me?"
After saying that, he swung the whip and hit him again.
The men dodged and shouted, "The eldest daughter of the Duke of Ning's Mansion hit someone! The eldest daughter of the Duke of Ning's Mansion killed someone! The eldest daughter of the Duke of Ning's Mansion is so powerful!"
It attracted people all over the mountain to watch the fun.
Ning Fengluan finally achieved her wish and became the most eye-catching presence in Baiyun Temple that day. However, it was not the "fame" she wanted, but "ugly reputation."
He was also forced by the patrolling officers to write a letter of apology, promising to compensate the young men with one hundred taels of silver each.
"What bad luck!"
She had a splitting headache.
I completely lost the mood to go up the mountain to kneel down and burn incense with Ji Changqing.
But I was unwilling to leave just like that.
So they waited at the foot of the mountain.
After waiting for a long time for Ji Changqing and his group to come down the mountain, he straightened his clothes and was about to go to meet them when he suddenly saw a short man holding a knife in his hand, rushing towards Ji Changqing.
"careful!"
She hurried forward and whipped the little man.
Ji Changqing had already noticed the assassin and was prepared to deal with him. He just waited for the other party to get close to him and kicked him away, making sure that he would fall onto the sharp rocks not far away and die.
Unexpectedly, Ning Fengluan intervened and startled the assassin. The assassin turned around and stabbed Feng Qingsui.
Wuhua was going to catch the carriage and happened to be in front, so he was no longer with Feng Qingsui.
With quick eyes and hands, he pulled Feng Qingsui over, leaving the assassin empty-handed, and then kicked him to the ground.
Wuhua noticed the movement, rushed back quickly, and stepped on the assassin.
Feng Qingsui was caught off guard and bumped into his arms. Hearing Ji Changqing's hiss, he quickly stood up against his chest and turned around.
I saw him covering his right eye with a painful expression.
Thinking that his eyes were injured by the assassin, he hurriedly said, "Let me see it quickly."
"It's okay." Ji Changqing relaxed and released his right hand, "It was just that the hairpin that was thrown over your head hit my eye."
Feng Qingsui saw that his eyes were red and filled with tears. He smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I could still see the tears in the eyes of the Second Master in my lifetime."
It is a rare sight to see a handsome man crying.
Ji Changqing: “…”
Ning Fengluan, who failed in her attempt to save the beauty, looked at this scene and almost broke the whip in her hand.
No wonder Feng had nothing nice to say when she saw her. It turned out that she wanted to take advantage of Ji Changqing!
