Chapter 84: Jade Spring Fragrance, Snow-Falling Green Lotus
Yuchunlou is the most famous teahouse in Yuecheng. No matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, there is a constant stream of tea drinkers in the building.
Shang Yuwan suddenly laughed.
"Let's go to Yuchun Tower." She waved the invitation in her hand. "We'll meet our people in half an hour. This guy has been waiting for us for a long time."
Xiao Qinggu immediately realized what was going on and laughed angrily, "Do you think I'm your thug?"
Xiao Qingxu said calmly, "Let's go. We need Baili Pu's support. After all, we need him for our support."
With Yuan Ji's help, they will be much smoother.
Xiao Qinggu of course knew that he was the one who needed help, so he snorted in dissatisfaction and got up to leave.
"Wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes." What if she got there and someone said that she, a princess, was dressed shabbily in public?
Shang Yuwan looked at his green suit and the two long swords at his waist, looking like he was going to kill someone, so he stood up and left to change his clothes.
She had not dealt much with Yuan Ji in her previous life. Although she knew that this man only cared about Bailipu and his own interests and did not care about anything else, she still did not want to be criticized by this cruel and vicious scholar.
It would be bad if it was misunderstood as murderous intent.
Xiao Qingxu couldn't help but check whether he was dressed properly and even smelled it.
A faint smell of medicine.
...Forget it, I'd better change into some perfumed clothes.
The three of them changed their clothes and got on a carriage to go to Yuchun Tower in the west of the city to keep their appointment.
Xiao Qinggu sat in the middle, Shang Yuwan and Xiao Qingxu sat opposite.
Xiao Qingxu's gaze fell on Shang Yuwan's hand, "You're not going to keep the Ring Finger Blade?"
The ring finger blade was made according to Xiao Qingxu's size, but he was too thin. Even though his hands were a circle bigger than Shang Yuwan's, the ring finger blade fit Shang Yuwan perfectly, fitting perfectly as if it was made for her.
"If we don't bring anything, we will be three idiots in Yuan Ji's eyes." Shang Yuwan replied with his eyes closed, with a light dark blue in the bottom of his eyes.
She was worried about all sorts of things last night, had a severe headache, and had a lot of white hair growing out. The medicine Ji Suxian gave her to make her hair black was completely useless.
Xiao Qingxu touched the newly made rain-weaving needle on his wrist and hummed softly.
Xiao Qinggu: “?”
Are they all hiding something? So she's the only one who came out wearing a pretty dress?
Or go back...
Shang Yuwan didn't even blink: "You are our master, you don't need to bring him."
How could a master go to such lengths to protect his subordinates when they were around? Besides, Xiao Qinggu was a favorite of Emperor Chengming. Although he couldn't confirm the truth of his words, Yuan Ji wouldn't be foolish enough to attack Xiao Qinggu. There was no conflict of interest between them.
Only then did Xiao Qinggu give up the idea of going back to get his weapons.
Shang Yuwan is right, listen to her.
The City Lord’s Mansion is not far from Yuchun Tower and can be reached in a quarter of an hour.
Shang Yuwan got off the carriage, helped Xiao Qinggu down, and raised his arm towards Xiao Qingxu who had just emerged from behind the curtain.
Xiao Qingxu was stunned, and Shang Yuwan raised his eyebrows.
"Come down."
Ji Suxian came to Xiao Qingxu early in the morning and told her about this. She talked for a long time, but her point was just one: to keep a good eye on the host when she was away.
She stretched out her arm to support him, fearing that his legs would give out and he would fall.
Xiao Qingxu: "...No need."
He rejected Shang Yuwan's kindness and did not think that he was so fragile that he needed help to get off the carriage.
But Xiao Qingxu obviously overestimated himself, because he didn't sleep all night, and when he lowered his head, he felt dizzy and the world was spinning.
The hems of the white and blue robes collided with each other. The white robe fell like snowflakes, and the light blue skirt suddenly bloomed like a blue lotus, steadily catching the light snowflakes.
Xiao Qingxu heard Xiao Qinggu's scream halfway.
After the dizziness eased a little, he felt a pain in his chin. He blinked his eyes, turned his head, and smelled the fragrance of Shang Yuwan's hair.
She didn't tie her hair into a ponytail today, but instead had a bun like a girl.
While Xiao Qingxu was stunned, Shang Yuwan hugged him and patted his back, "Are you feeling better?"
This person is so light. Has it come to this?
A glimmer flashed in Shang Yuwan's eyes. He had already planned to write a letter to Twelve after finishing today's work, asking her to find some longevity herbs while tracking down Xiao Tong's assets. It might be beneficial to the owner of the post.
"Ouch..." Xiao Qinggu covered his mouth, his eyes widened, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising.
Isn’t this the story of the beauty saving the hero in the storybook?
When Xiao Qingxu heard Xiao Qinggu's surprised and happy voice, and saw the gazes of the people around him, he hurriedly broke away from Shang Yuwan. His ears were red, as if they were cooked, and he almost fell to the ground in panic.
"I'm fine! Let's go! Don't keep him waiting any longer!"
"......oh."
The three of them asked the waiter and were taken to a private room on the second floor to meet Yuan Ji.
Xiao Qingxu walked at the end, with only one word in his mind: Oh.
oh?
Just say "oh" when you hug a man?
Xiao Qingxu walked silently to Shang Yuwan's side and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.
After hesitating for a while, he managed to say, "You've lost a lot of weight."
Wearing the mask made his jaw hurt.
Xiao Qingxu frowned, but Shang Yuwan couldn't see it.
She glanced at Xiao Qingxu and said lightly, "You are also very light."
Such a big person bumped into her arms but she didn't move at all. If you didn't know, you would think she had taken root.
Xiao Qingxu: "......"
He fell silent and followed at the back, many people looking at him and whispering to each other.
"That's the guy. He needed his wife's help to get out of the carriage. How weak is he?"
"Oh, pity such a beautiful woman."
"——How about I give it a try?"
"Oh, no, no, no, that lady didn't even move her feet when her husband knocked her into his arms. She must have some skills."
"There aren't many women with good skills, and they're so considerate to a sickly boy like him. It's really rare!"
Shang Yuwan naturally heard the gossip, paused, and his eyes suddenly fell on the face of the person who said Xiao Qingxu was a "sickly person".
When Xiao Qingxu saw Shang Yuwan's reaction, his eyes gradually widened.
The man was startled by Shang Yuwan and quickly changed his words: "A man who can win her favor must be an ordinary man!"
He said how could he hear it even though it was so quiet! The look in his eyes was like he wanted to eat me!
Shang Yuwan: “…” Forget it, I’m too lazy to bother with it.
She followed Xiao Qinggu, and Xiao Qingxu followed her, his eyes never leaving her back.
The door of the private room was pushed open, and after the distinguished guest entered, the waiter closed the door and retreated.
A man was sitting at the table, facing the door. When he looked up, he could see Xiao Qing and Gu.
Yuan Ji was born with a good-looking face, with a charming look in his eyes. When he smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits, making him look like a gentle and well-behaved fox.
He was wearing a dark green robe today, which hid most of his ruthless aura and made him look gentle.
Yuan Ji stood up to greet her, smiling and bowing, "I am so honored to have you, Your Highness, here with me!"
Xiao Qinggu brought the two of them to return the gift. Shang Yuwan thought to himself: If he didn't have the reputation of being cruel and vicious, he might have become a scholar and gentleman sought after and loved by women.
The four of them sat in a circle, and Yuan Ji poured each of them a cup of Yuchun Tower's best Yuchun tea.
"Everyone, please try it."
Xiao Qinggu naturally would not refuse. She knew how delicious Yuecheng's Yuchun tea was, and Yuan Ji didn't dare to harm her.
Shang Yuwan remained calm, picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down.
Yuan Ji's gaze lingered on her face for a moment, then turned to the motionless Xiao Qingxu.
"This gentleman is the owner of Baijialou, right? But he doesn't like it?"
After saying this, he apologized with a smile as if he had just remembered something.
"Sorry, sorry, I never show my true face to anyone. It was Yuan who overstepped the boundaries."
Xiao Qingxu replied calmly: "No problem."
The corners of Yuan Ji's eyes curled up slightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across the corners of his mouth, but then quickly disappeared without anyone noticing.
