Fu Tong'er felt relieved after hearing this. This Ninth Master was deliberately punishing Minister Jiang.
When Minister Jiang heard this, he stood up again, smiled, raised his hand and slapped himself twice, saying: "Your humble servant is not good at speaking, your humble servant is not good at speaking. Your humble servant will punish himself by drinking three more cups--"
As he said this, he waved for someone to pour the wine.
Lu Zhenzhi raised his eyes and stared at him. Minister Jiang hurriedly poured himself a cup and drank three more cups with a smile.
"Sit down." Lu Zhenzhi leaned back slightly, sipped his hot tea with a cold smile, and then took off his black fox cloak and hung it on the back of Fu Tong'er's chair.
The movements were natural and done in one go, as if the two knew each other very well.
Xiao Pu glanced at her, thinking, isn't the master cold? Oh, no, this old iron tree isn't cold, it's just another way of proclaiming one thing: this girl belongs to his Ninth Master. Thinking of this, a smile crept into his lips. Does this master's possessiveness begin now? This girl hasn't divorced King Hui yet, but if they do... I can't imagine it.
After thanking him, Minister Jiang dared not say another word. After sitting down, he saw the Regent's fox fur coat hanging on the back of Princess Hui's chair. He couldn't help but gasp.
The Regent's fox fur—
It was actually hanging behind the chair of the emperor's niece-in-law, Princess Hui!
…
After thinking for a while, Minister Jiang refilled his glass, stood up and said to Fu Tong'er, "Princess Hui, there were many inappropriate things I said just now. I hope you will not be offended."
"Oh?" Lu Zhenzhi turned his gaze to Fu Tong'er beside him and said in a low voice, "What did Minister Jiang say about the girl? Can you tell me too?"
Minister Jiang was startled, his face turning from black to white, from white to red, and from red to green...
If this were repeated, not only would his official position be lost, he might even lose his life! According to the laws of Great Yan, anyone who made irresponsible remarks about the royal family would be punished with confiscation of property at the very least, and execution of all nine generations of his family at the worst.
Thinking of this, Minister Jiang felt that it was neither right to speak nor wrong to remain silent, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
…
Fu Tong'er said at this time: "Nine Master,"
"Hmm?" This slightly raised tone was actually a few degrees gentler.
This tone...
Is he still the living Yama "Jiu Ye" who terrifies the enemy?
Xiao Pu, who was standing by, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
My transformation was so sudden...
"Forget it?" Fu Tong'er said as she quickly turned around and looked up at Lu Zhenzhi. At one glance, she saw the man's deep, downcast eyes staring at her intently! In an instant, her face flushed...
Lu Zhenzhi saw her slight change. This girl... blushed so much just by looking at him——!
Lu Zhenzhi is not a young man in his twenties, so he certainly knows why a little girl would blush.
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then, turning to Minister Jiang, he asked, "Minister Jiang, why are you making such a scene today... what's the reason?"
Minister Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, no longer daring to provoke Fu Tong'er. He wanted to sit down, but he didn't dare. He was already overweight, and since the Regent came in, he'd been constantly tossed around. Now, his waist ached.
"Just sit down for a moment. You're shivering like that. What a mess." Lu Zhenzhi's expression was stern and arrogant.
"Yes..." Minister Jiang regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have been so rude and asked the Princess Hui to come up. He didn't expect that the Regent would protect her so much. It was really embarrassing.
Fortunately, we can finally get down to business.
At this moment, he finally understood what it meant to be cautious in what he said and did!
"Master Jiu, this is the case. I have opened an escort agency at the southern intersection of the city. I know that the business on that piece of land belongs to you, Master Jiu, so I would like to ask for your approval."
Lu Zhenzhi glanced at Xiao Pu, who understood and said, "Sir, you are opening an escort agency on our Ninth Master's territory. Do you think you don't respect our Ninth Master?"
"I dare not! How dare I? I am willing to share the proceeds with the Regent Prince." said Minister Jiang.
"How do we divide it?" Lu Zhenzhi handed the chopsticks to Fu Tong'er and said, "You eat yours. Don't pay attention to us."
