Chapter 404: Qi Guang is also a weirdo!
After hearing these words, Ran Qingxuan had only one thought in his mind.
"This Emperor Mingde is really... such a dog..."
The two grown men couldn't help laughing. It was not the first day that Gu Yanchen knew her temper, so he acted as if he was used to it.
It was only today that Duan Yi truly understood Ran Qingxuan, and he also gained some insights into her blunt words.
"I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be so genuine..."
"Scolding a dog is a sign of true nature. Emperor Mingde is your cousin..."
Duan Yi sneered: "He doesn't deserve it. If it weren't for my aunt's face, I would definitely scold him more harshly than you..."
Ran Qingxuan felt that this Duan family was not bad. Even though they were betrayed by their daughter, they did not hate her for what she had done.
It seemed that her expression was a little subtle. Duan Yi smiled slightly and said bluntly: "Are you wondering why my aunt did such a thing, but our family didn't care?"
Having his thoughts guessed, Ran Qingxuan nodded somewhat awkwardly.
"In fact, no matter what kind of reward the late emperor gave us, my Duan family had no ambitions, but the late emperor was too suspicious.
He was originally an unpopular prince, but after living peacefully for many years, he suddenly became the emperor. He felt that anyone with the ability would come to seize his throne. This was a common problem that emperors throughout history had committed. ”
“And my Duan family did everything we could to help him ascend the throne. My aunt’s original intention was to help my father gain a firm foothold in the army so that he would not be criticized for serving the country in the future.
But my aunt’s fault is that she is not good at speaking. She was accused of being greedy just because she expressed her true thoughts...”
Ran Qingxuan and Gu Yanchen looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
It is not easy for them to comment too much on whether this matter is right or wrong. Anyway, it has been so long since it happened. No matter what, the most important thing is the people who are still alive.
"Let's not talk about this for now. It's not too late now. Why don't you go and discuss it with your grandfather and uncle? If all goes well, it would be best to post it before breakfast tomorrow."
Such a novelty early in the morning is sure to attract people’s interest, and if the five cities are well-informed, perhaps the next sale of colored glass cups will be even more eye-catching.
Speaking of business, Duan Yi couldn't wait any longer and picked up his cloak to leave.
It happened that the guard who had just gone out came back and immediately reported what he saw after going out.
"The man who was alone in the same room with Qi Guang was a manager of the Qi family's pharmacy on Sitong Street. He was 42 years old and his name was Zhang Tai. The pharmacy on Sitong Street was managed by someone from the second branch of the family."
"It seems that we all underestimated Qi Guang's desire to become the head of the Qi family. I didn't expect that he had arranged for him to be in the position more than ten years ago."
Ran Qingxuan calculated the time and couldn't help but be amazed.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I'm convinced. If you say Qi Guang is amazing, he hasn't been able to get the position of the head of the family for thirteen years. If you say he is not amazing, the spies he planted have not been discovered for such a long time..."
"He has only dreamed of becoming the family head in his lifetime!" Gu Yanchen said.
"Business is more important. I will talk to Qi Minghe about this matter when I return and ask him to pay attention to it. You should also proceed as soon as possible. After all, the weather is getting colder and colder. The sooner they can put on warm clothes, the better."
"Oh, and I'll have my friend prepare your medicine when we get back. To be safe, you can pick it up yourself when you come back. I won't deliver it to you."
Duan Yi was filled with gratitude and bowed to Ran Qingxuan.
“Thank you again, brother and sister-in-law, for your kindness.”
Ran Qingxuan waved his hand and left with Gu Yanchen in a leisurely manner.
Ever since Duan Yi took the Moon Goddess Cold Pill, he felt that his body was not as cold as before, so he did not wear a cloak when he went out, which startled the guards who reminded him.
"Young Marquis, your condition will get worse if you do this..."
Duan Yi straightened his back unconsciously upon hearing this. At first glance, he no longer looked listless as before, but instead had a rosy complexion, and did not look like he was in poor health.
The guard seemed to notice something different after he said this and looked at him in surprise.
"My illness has been cured by my brother and sister-in-law, and now I can live like a normal person!" After saying this, he strode out.
The shopkeeper heard the noise downstairs and when he looked up the stairs he felt dazzled.
"How strange..."
The shopkeeper's second monk was completely confused and could only watch Duan Yi leave in surprise.
At around five o'clock, Cangzhou had not yet completely fallen into darkness. The two walked side by side on the streets of Yinyue City. Gu Yanchen naturally reached out his hand to hold the person. His palm was so hot that Ran Qingxuan could not help but blush.
"What happened today?"
"What's wrong..." Gu Yanchen pretended to be stupid and said with a smile.
Ran Qingxuan raised the hand that was being pulled, with a strange look on his face.
"It seems I have to hold your hand more often in the future, otherwise this sudden move might make you uncomfortable..."
Seeing that he said that on purpose, Ran Qingxuan took his hand and gently kissed the back of his hand, telling him with practical actions that he actually liked it.
The person who originally had a dissatisfied look on his face changed his expression instantly, his cheeks quickly turned red, and he couldn't help but move closer, pecked her lightly, and then immediately withdrew.
Ran Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth quickly rose. He stood in place and shook his hand.
"Let's go, let's go back and check. I didn't tell Chang Fang why when I left Qi's house. She must be worried after such a long time."
Gu Yanchen pinched her cheek lovingly, feeling very happy.
"I'll be back soon."
The two people's behavior as if they were the only one in the crowd was seen by passers-by. Many people were shocked by their behavior in public, but at the same time they were also envious of their bold display of love regardless of the secular world.
At the Qi Mansion, Chang Fang has delivered medicine to Qi Mingjing twice. Every time, Qi Mingjing would ask where Ran Qingxuan had gone.
If Qi Mingjing hadn't asked seriously, she would have thought that this man had a crush on Ran Qingxuan...
"You should be able to feel changes in your body tomorrow. If you feel any discomfort, just tell me directly."
Qi Mingjing nodded to Chang Fang: "Thank you, Miss Chang..."
After saying that, he looked at her hesitantly as if he wanted to say something else. Chang Fang shrank back in disgust and almost turned around and left.
"Don't ask me where Teacher Ran went anymore. I already said I don't know..."
It's useless to ask!
Qi Mingjing felt embarrassed when he saw that she looked like she had a headache.
"I'm sorry, Miss Chang, I didn't mean to ask where the miracle doctor went..."
Chang Fang breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, then just ask whatever you want to ask. I have nothing to do later and I have to go get some midnight snack."
"Midnight snack? Dinner?"
In ancient times, people usually had lunch before five o'clock. Chang Fang boiled medicine twice in his courtyard, so he also ate here.
However, Qi Mingjing has been eating light food for many years, so Chang Fang stopped eating after feeling that it was not to her taste.
The midnight snack she mentioned was actually the self-heating hot pot that Ran Qingxuan brought her...
