Chapter 42: The Duke of Zhenguo is injured, Qi Yunshen is furious
Luoya Residence.
Qingying told Qi Yunshen everything that happened today.
Qingying touched his head and said, "Master, Doctor Jiang will live next door to us from now on."
After Jiang Yunzheng treated Qi Yunshen that night, she started calling him Doctor Jiang.
Qi Yunshen flipped through the file in his hand with an expressionless face.
Qingying was terrified, "Master, do you still not believe in Doctor Jiang?"
The woman's face appeared in Qi Yunshen's mind. They had not had much contact, and Jiang Yunzheng was far from being as kind and gentle as she appeared to be.
At this moment, Qi An walked in anxiously from outside the door, "Master, there's a letter from the Northwest. Five days ago, the Duke fought with Tuoba Tao of Western Xia and was seriously injured. He is now out of danger."
Qi Yunshen's face darkened as he took the secret report.
Qi An paused and continued, "Our people discovered that the weapons used by the Xixia people this time had traces of Daliang craftsmanship, and our weapons were replaced with inferior ones."
Qi Yunshen's face was gloomy. "Kidnap the King of Zhou's son."
Qingying: "Yes."
Qingying and Qi'an walked out of the study and looked at each other. King Zhou was determined to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason.
-
The next day.
Qi Yanyu accompanied the princess mother to finish breakfast, and the princess mentioned what happened in the Shi Mansion yesterday.
Qi Yanyu was happy for Jiang Yunzheng and her mother-in-law: "Now that Madam Song's brother is the Minister of Dali Temple, the Shi family will have to be a little cautious if they want to cause trouble in the future."
The eldest princess didn't say anything and asked Qi Yanyu to bring some gifts when she went to Xu's house today.
When Qi Yanyu went out, she happened to run into her third brother Qi Yunzhou. Qi Yunzhou raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Where have you been?"
Qi Yanyu winked at Qi Yunzhou and said, "Go see Mianmian and Sister Jiang."
Qi Yunzhou raised his eyebrows and said, "I have nothing to do today, so I'll go with you."
Qi Yanyu snorted softly: "Someone has other intentions. Stop it. This princess is having a sisters' gathering today. Anyone who is idle should stay aside."
As he spoke, Qi Yunzhou pretended to come over and twist Qi Yanyu's ears.
Qi Yanyu yelled, "Second aunt, help me! Third brother is going to hit me!"
Qi Yunzhou's face was filled with black lines.
At this moment, Qi Yunshen's voice came from behind, "Yunzhou, follow me into the palace."
Qi Yunzhou and Qi Yanyu immediately turned around and called out to him politely, "Big Brother."
Qi Yunzhou's smile faded slightly: "Yes, big brother."
Qi Yanyu pouted: "What are you doing in the palace?"
Qi Yunshen touched his sister's head and said, "It has nothing to do with you. Go out and have fun today."
Qi Yanyu snorted: "It's so mysterious, I won't go."
After Qi Yanyu left, Qi Yunzhou's face turned serious: "Brother, what's wrong?"
Qi Yunshen pursed his lips: "Let's talk on the way."
Qi Yanyu brought gifts to Xu's house. The three of them are now inseparable good sisters. Qi Yanyu is happy that Jiang Yunzheng has escaped from the wolf den of Shi's house, and suggests going out for a walk today to celebrate.
Xu Mianmian: "That's perfect. I'm also going to buy something for someone."
Qi Yanyu said in a long voice, "Who is it for?"
Xu Mianmian stamped her feet, the tips of her ears slightly red: "I won't tell you."
Xu Mianmian went back to the room to change clothes with a shy look on her face.
Jiang Yunzheng and Qi Yanyu were drinking tea in the courtyard. Jiang Yunzheng asked, "When was Mianmian and Xu Jiashu's engagement?"
Qi Yanyu held her chin with her hand and sighed softly, "It seems that March of next year is a good day to consult the Imperial Astronomical Observatory."
Jiang Yunzheng lowered her eyes and looked at the tea in the cup.
Xu Jiashu, what qualifications do you have to marry Mianmian?
The three of them first went to Cuihua Tower and walked around inside. Xu Mianmian didn't see anything she liked, so she went to the Wenwan Street in Xishi. It was very lively here. Behind the street was a place where the famous young men in the capital liked to stay.
Qi Yanyu winked at the two of them and said, "Since we're here, let's go shopping."
The other two naturally had no objection.
These brothels are also interspersed with various small shops from the Western Regions.
Jiang Yunzheng took a fancy to a doll with a raccoon pattern and was about to buy it when she suddenly heard the sound of orderly footsteps outside.
The three looked outside and saw a dozen Jinyiwei entering a brothel diagonally opposite. Standing in the front was Xu Jiashu.
Jiang Yunzheng said calmly, "Isn't that Second Young Master Xu?"
Xu Mianmian hummed, "It should be for the case."
The shop owner also liked to watch the fun, and said to them: "A few days ago, a courtesan came to Zui Qing Feng. It is said that she is extremely beautiful. The owner bought her from Jiangnan. Many rich young men spent a fortune just to see her."
Qi Yanyu: "What does that have to do with the Jinyiwei case?"
The boss tutted his words, "It's said that a Xixia assassin sneaked into Zui Qing Feng last night, and after being discovered, he stabbed Prince Dun's son. Only the courtesan has seen what the assassin looks like, and now the Jinyiwei are going in to arrest him."
Qi Yanyu's beautiful eyes turned, and she whispered, "Hey, the courtesan, let's go see how beautiful she is."
Jiang Yunzheng said: "Go change your clothes first."
Jiang Yunzheng herself didn't care. Qi Yanyu and Xu Mianmian had different identities. It would be troublesome if they were recognized.
Jiang Yunzheng and Qi Yanyu looked at Xu Mianmian, who blushed slightly, "There's a clothing store next door."
After the three of them changed their clothes, they looked like three handsome young men, and Jiang Yunzheng was holding a doll in his hand.
You can’t get inside Zui Qing Feng and can only watch from the outside.
Jiang Yunzheng's eyes passed over Xu Jiashu who was standing in the middle of the hall, and then fell on the courtesan who was slowly walking out from upstairs.
After just one glance, Jiang Yunzheng pursed her lips.
Xu Jiashu stared at the person who was approaching, his face suddenly turned pale, his body stiffened, and his lips trembled as if he wanted to say something.
Tong Li recognized Xu Jiashu, and her expression was very indifferent, "Mr. Xu, long time no see."
Xu Jiashu was completely defeated, and he stepped forward to hug Tong Li, his shoulders shaking.
Qi Yanyu cursed him as a bastard.
Xu Mianmian seemed to have no time to react and stared blankly at the scene in front of her.
Jiang Yunzheng said at the right moment: "This seems to be Mr. Xu's former fiancée."
Qi Yanyu: "Sister Jiang, how did you know?"
"I've seen her from a distance before, and it looks like she is her." Jiang Yunzheng paused and said to Xu Mianmian, "Mianmian, it's time to make a decision."
Xu Jiashu is not a good match.
No one noticed when the three young men left. They walked to the river in silence.
Qi Yanyu clenched her fists, "Mianmian, I'm going to take some people to beat up Xu Jiashu."
Xu Mianmian's face looked very bad, her mouth pursed, and tears fell in strings.
"I've liked him for three years. Why did he get engaged to me when he already has someone he likes?"
Jiang Yunzheng looked at the river: "It's the nature of men to have their eyes on the pot while eating in the bowl, and their interests are the most important."
Xu Mianmian cried loudly.
Jiang Yunzheng gently patted the little girl's shoulder and said, "It's not too late to find out now."
Xu Mianmian paused in her tears. "What if it's just a misunderstanding? I heard someone say that Xu Jiashu once had a well-educated and well-mannered fiancée, but she mysteriously disappeared, and he searched for her for many years."
Jiang Yunzheng and Qi Yanyu remained silent.
Xu Mianmian muttered to herself again: "Xu Jiashu is a responsible and responsible person. It should just be a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding."
