Chapter 28: Passers-by in the Ancient World 2
Before Ke Xiaoxia knocked on the door, it was opened from the inside.
It was Jiang Sheng, who was dressed neatly.
When Jiang Sheng saw Ke Xiaoxia, his eyes lit up: "What's your name?"
"Xiao Xia."
"Xiao Xia, that's a nice name. I'm going out. Do you want to come with me?"
As he spoke, Jiang Sheng pulled Ke Xiaoxia out.
"I have an appointment to go to the horse race. It would be so boring to stay in this house all day. Come on, I'll take you out to see the world."
Ke Xiaoxia was forced to follow.
Just when Jiang Sheng was about to step out of Shaoguang Courtyard, he was stopped by someone.
The original gatekeeper had been replaced by two tall guards.
The guard said with a serious face: "Master, the master has ordered that you cannot go out before the wedding."
Jiang Sheng thought it was outrageous: "What's going on? Didn't I agree to marry Lin Jing? Why doesn't he allow me to go out?"
"This is what the Lord ordered."
Jiang Sheng was going crazy.
He let go of Ke Xiaoxia's hand and said, "Stay away."
Ke Xiaoxia obediently moved away.
Jiang Sheng rolled up his sleeves and wanted to rush out.
The guards held Jiang Sheng tightly and he couldn't rush out at all.
Jiang Sheng's face turned red with anger: "Get out! Let me out, I want to see Jiang Mingzhi..."
The guards remained unmoved and Jiang Sheng struggled in vain.
In the end, they could only take a step back: "I want to see Jiang Mingzhi, either you move aside and let me see him, or you go and call Jiang Mingzhi over."
Jiang Mingzhi is Prime Minister Jiang.
Jiang Sheng is now a rebellious kid.
Of course, Jiang Mingzhi was indeed a very arbitrary and domineering father.
Sure enough, the words I heard in the kitchen before were all Uncle Wang’s filter for the Prime Minister.
"Your Excellency is not in the palace at the moment. I will inform you as soon as you return."
The guards do their job impartially.
Jiang Sheng glared at the guard fiercely, then angrily pulled Ke Xiaoxia into the house.
"Xiao Xia, do you think he is sick? Why does he decide my marriage on his own? Why doesn't he let me go out?!"
Ke Xiaoxia: “…” How should she respond?
It's not easy to offend both sides.
Ke Xiaoxia chose her words carefully: "My Lord, he does not respect your ideas very much..."
"Yes! They just don't respect my ideas. Very disrespectful. I've never seen anything so excessive."
Jiang Sheng had a strong desire to complain, and he talked about a lot of Prime Minister Jiang's shortcomings.
What do you mean by being controlling, being arbitrary and tyrannical and not considering him at all...
Ke Xiaoxia wanted to cover her ears after hearing this.
Is this something she can listen to?
She is just a little maid.
After saying he was tired, Jiang Sheng poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp.
After putting down the teacup, Jiang Sheng looked at Ke Xiaoxia who was standing next to him and said, "Why are you standing? Sit down. There aren't so many rules here. I'm not Jiang Mingzhi, so old-fashioned."
Ke Xiaoxia forced a smile: "This is not good..."
Jiang Sheng stood up and walked forward, pulling Ke Xiaoxia and pressing her onto the stool.
"There's nothing wrong with it. You just need to listen to me here, okay?"
Ke Xiaoxia said obediently: "I understand."
Jiang Sheng was satisfied.
After complaining for so long, Jiang Sheng was tired.
He stared at Ke Xiaoxia for a while, then frowned slightly, very dissatisfied: "Why are you dressed so simply? There's not even a hairpin on your head?"
He touched the fabric on Ke Xiaoxia's body and said with disdain: "What are you wearing?"
"And this hand, it's too rough, I need to take good care of it too."
"You are mine, you represent my reputation. If you dress too plainly, wouldn't it be my face that would be lost?"
Ke Xiaoxia didn't want to talk.
She felt that Jiang Sheng simply wanted to take advantage of her.
Jiang Sheng did dislike Ke Xiaoxia's dress at first.
But after pulling up Ke Xiaoxia's hand, he really didn't want to let go.
Even though this hand was not as soft and smooth as his friends said, and was even a little rough, Jiang Sheng did not want to let go.
As a playboy, Jiang Sheng likes dog walking, cockfighting, and horse racing, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand some things.
Not to mention that group of bad friends, just say that when he was a child, there were many maids who wanted to climb into Jiang Mingzhi's bed.
Jiang Sheng has seen Jiang Mingzhi deal with women who want to get into bed with him.
Jiang Mingzhi also told Jiang Sheng about those women's intentions, without considering Jiang Sheng's age at the time.
This also led to Jiang Sheng being particularly averse to young women approaching him, as he always felt that those people had bad intentions.
This is also the reason why there are no young maids in Jiang Sheng’s yard.
But as always, there are always exceptions.
Jiang Sheng found it difficult to describe how he felt when he saw Ke Xiaoxia.
In short, Ke Xiaoxia is special. He wants to keep people by his side, and he chooses to follow his heart.
But when the person really arrived, Jiang Sheng felt conflicted, so he didn't even see Ke Xiaoxia yesterday.
Until he met him this morning, Jiang Sheng felt that he was really good at making trouble for himself.
The person is right beside me, and I don’t know what I’m worrying about.
He didn't hesitate, but was hit by Jiang Cheng in the head, and was almost angry to death.
After he finally calmed down, he noticed something else.
At this moment, Jiang Sheng couldn't calm down at all.
Now there were only two of them in the room.
Jiang Sheng couldn't help but think of some ugly pictures he had seen before.
He couldn't help but cough lightly and diverted attention, "How long have you been here? Have you been in the kitchen before?"
"Yes, I've been here for five years. I used to work in the kitchen."
"I see. That's going to take quite a long time."
Jiang Sheng responded and started to think wildly again.
It's been five years, how come he hasn't noticed it once in these five years?
If he had met Ke Xiaoxia earlier...
Jiang Sheng frowned.
The images in my mind are always somewhat unpleasant to the eyes.
Jiang Sheng was a little annoyed. He just liked someone, so why was he always thinking about unnecessary things?
He must have been led astray by his group of bad friends. They were the ones who whispered nonsense to him all day long and showed him some disgusting pictures.

Ke Xiaoxia didn't know how rich and colorful Jiang Sheng's psychology was, but seeing Jiang Sheng's expression changing from time to time, she knew that this young master must be in an uneasy mood.
Ke Xiaoxia didn't think it was because of her.
I just feel like this young master might be going crazy.
She'd better be quiet.
Maids have no human rights, and being liked is not necessarily a good thing.
Ke Xiaoxia misses the comfortable life in the kitchen.
If she had known this, she would not have gone to watch the fun.
Ke Xiaoxia sighed inwardly.
Jiang Sheng felt irritated and angry.
How come he didn't know before that he was that kind of person?
I can't stop the random thoughts in my mind.
Jiang Sheng wasn't sure if it was because the two of them were alone in the room.
He let go of Ke Xiaoxia's hand and said, "Go and see if my father is back. If he is, let me know immediately."
"OK."
Ke Xiaoxia responded and went out.
After he could no longer see Ke Xiaoxia, those thoughts gradually disappeared with Ke Xiaoxia's departure, and Jiang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Apparently that was the reason why the two of them were alone in the room.
After all, he was young and full of energy, and it was inevitable that he would be a little distracted when facing the girl he liked...
