Standing at the door, Li Jiang and Mu Bo were talking.

To be precise, it was Li Jiang who was speaking...

Qi Wu was looking at the beggar in the shadows. It was dark, and the man was dirty, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but he had a feeling that there was something wrong with this man.

Wen Yu came out, "What are you looking at?!"

"Nothing...Are you going home now?"

"Let's go eat a bowl first!?"

"good."

When Mu Bo heard that they were eating noodles and had been listening to Li Jiang talking for a long time, he followed him in closely.

A few side dishes and two bowls of noodles were served quickly.

Qi Wu drank his tea leisurely, not in a hurry at all.

Mu Bo… had already used his life to hold the bowl and chopsticks, and put the noodles into his mouth. In one mouthful, half a bowl of noodles was gone. He just smacked the noodles twice… and suddenly stopped biting the noodles, and looked around…

Sure enough, Wen Yu was looking at him with a dark face.

He had no choice but to turn sideways, slow down his pace, and chew with his mouth closed. But the bowl of noodles was gone in the blink of an eye. He looked around and saw that the other person had no intention of giving him a second bowl. He was a little disappointed...

This amount of noodles was not enough to fill his stomach, so he had to drink up the soup and start eating the vegetables.

After all, Mu Ling felt sorry for her brother and secretly brought a few buns over.

"Has mother come today?" Qi Wu asked.

"My wife isn't here. After you finish eating, I have something to tell you."

She always seems to be on something!

Qi Wu didn't say anything. After dinner, they went out. This time, he didn't wait for Wen Yu to invite him. He helped her get into the car and followed her.

"I want to ask, if Jinzi is so annoying, why would Yongqing take him out to play?"

"Jin Zi is very bad, and so is his father. But as for his grandfather... I heard that he sold his life several times before he ascended the throne. It is also said that he controls some of the people. However, so many years have passed. Nothing can be seen..." Qi Wu came closer and whispered: "It's just that the emperor is suspicious, and it's really hard to say what he has in his hands."

His voice was right in front of her, and his breath was hot, blowing the hair around her ears, making them move slightly and rubbing her ears.

This feeling is so wonderful.

"Normally, he keeps his head down. The emperor treats him neither too close nor too distant... so it's hard to say. I haven't checked it out, so I'm afraid that if I can't find out, it will cause trouble."

"I heard someone say today that Jin Zi is trying to curry favor with Wen Huan..." Wen Yu sneered, "I was thinking, let's get them together!"

"But Jin Zi has a bad reputation to begin with. If anything happens to him, the Wen family will be affected!"

"Is the impact so severe that I can't even enter your house?"

These words were very cold, and Qi Wu was startled, "What are you talking about..."

Wen Yu was fine again, "It would be best if I could talk about it after I get married. But judging by Wen Huan's actions, I'm afraid he can't wait."

"If what she is after is a concubine, then even if Princess Wu and Yongqing are willing, they still have to go through the approval process. After all, she has a rank, so she can find someone to delay it."

"Prepare for both. Do you have suitable personnel who can be deployed around the area without attracting attention?"

"Laba's sisters are all excellent at being maids, so they should be able to do it. I'll go ask His Highness for someone! But..." Qi Wu glanced at Wen Yu, "Just now His Highness asked you to send some noodles, but he only sent a little bit, which aroused the greed of the glutton but it was gone. He was a little angry because he didn't even feel full with the noodles."

"Then let him come to our restaurant to eat! As long as he has enough silver, no one will care if he vomits!" Wen Yu also had a very bad impression of the crown prince.

"He just complained a little, that's all..." Qi Wu spoke for the Crown Prince.

"Eh? Are you talking to him? Who is far away and who is close? Do you need me to analyze it for you?" Wen Yu got angry for no apparent reason. Maybe, a woman in love is prone to acting like a spoiled child?! How could she be so powerful?

Qi Wu stopped talking.

…

Gang Muling still saw the beggar sitting on the steps. When Yan Zhu came out and got in the car, she looked again and the beggar was gone.

Sun Ying was also thinking about this matter, and as she walked and looked around, the man did not follow her.

However, I was worried that he would hide near the girl's yard, and it would be troublesome if something happened in the middle of the night.

He was also wondering, how could he have provoked such a person for no reason! ?

Although he didn't find anything after trying it out, he always felt something was wrong.

As a grown woman, you can't afford to make mistakes.

After arriving home, he called his two nieces' daughters over and gave them numerous instructions, asking them to take turns keeping watch from today on.

As usual, Yan Zhu went to Lanzhou's house first and brought some food for Lanzhou and the turtle.

After asking Li Tan and the mother-in-law, they said everything was fine. Two eight- or nine-year-old boys were also arranged in the room, and when they were familiar with the work, Li Tan would be transferred out.

Chen Wenjie has gone home to live with her elder sister, and the two of them go to the store every day.

So during the day, Lan Zhou is the only one at home.

Ayu was also discussing with her, feeling a little worried about leaving Lanzhou alone at home.

But then I thought again, it’s not possible.

There are a lot of people in the store and the door is always open. If you don't keep an eye on it and someone gets lost...that would be troublesome.

After looking around, I went back to my room to wash up and rest. I got used to this life and didn't feel as tired as before.

Sun Ying was worried, so he walked around the mansion several times, and even searched some hidden corners with a lantern, but found nothing unusual.

However, he knew that this was not his strong point.

I regret it. I should have talked to Miss Wen about it.

He barely slept.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Sun Ying went out with dark circles under his eyes, staggering from side to side.

No one was found...

Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief. When I got to the store, I looked around, but the man was not there.

Maybe he left? Age is not forgiving. Sun Ying entered "Youziyouwei" and just found a place to take a nap against the wall when Li Jiang came over with a mean look on his face: "He's back again!"

…

Wen Feng was holding some snacks in one hand and twelve blooming peonies in the other.

Dressed casually and elegantly, he arrived at the gate of Princess Huiduan's mansion.

After informing them, two maids came out to meet them.

Along the way, there are houses with carved beams and painted buildings, the roadside is paved with rain flower stones, and there are gardens and ponds.

In some places, jade carvings are also displayed. Although the jade is not of top quality, it is rare to see such a large piece carved so finely.

The maid was wearing plain clothes and had a slim figure. She did not speak a word and walked slowly in front of the crowd.

In short, this princess lived a very luxurious life.

We arrived at a place, which should be the Xia Hall.

The row of long carved doors in front were all open, allowing sunlight to shine directly into the house.

Princess Huiduan, what are you busy doing in there?

As soon as Wen Feng saw her, he stopped and stood there, admiring her for a long time with a smile on his face.

It was not until Princess Huiduan turned her head to look at him, her face turning pink and she looked a little embarrassed and angry, that he smiled and stepped forward to salute.

"Princess, please don't blame me. Wen Feng comes from a small place and holds a low position. This is the first time for him to enter a garden like this! When he saw the princess again, he was even more nervous. If he hadn't stood still and calmed down, he might have made a fool of himself and let the princess blame him!"

"Mr. Wen is really good at talking! Come in and sit down!"

Wen Feng came in and looked around the hall. There was a piano under the window, chess on the table, and a large treasure cabinet filled with many things.

There is a clay stove in the house, where tea is boiled and red dates and dried fruits are roasted, and the whole house is filled with fragrance.

"The princess is indeed an elegant person!" She is really different from all the women he has known before.

Princess Huiduan really didn't ask about Wen Feng. Why would she ask about him? "So modest, yet so boastful. Don't let me misunderstand you. You have no intentions!" Huiduan chuckled.

"It's unfair! Wen Feng's hometown has been rich and prosperous since ancient times. Even in years of disaster, there is little impact. Therefore, the people are open-minded and pay attention to elegance on ordinary days! The way they speak is not as rigid as the rules in the capital.

Although Xiao Ke is not talented and failed to pass the imperial examinations like his brother, he has read a lot and learned a lot. Whatever he says comes from his heart. He is not good at flattery and lies. He will express what he thinks. I have never met a woman of such noble status as the princess. If there is anything wrong, the princess will forgive me a little..."

Princess Huiduan really couldn't dislike this man. He was holding the flowers and snacks and hadn't put them down yet.

I just picked up a pottery jar and said, "Sir, are these flowers for me? Or do I need to take them back later?!"

Wen Qian quickly handed over the flowers: "I saw a flower farmer selling them on the road. Just looking at them made me feel better! I'm sure the princess will feel the same way."

Huiduan took it, and a maid came in to add water, and she put it in the bottle herself. Then she casually placed it on the corner of the table, adding a touch of bright color to the room. Well, she was in a good mood indeed.

During this half day, the two of them chatted about everything and got along happily.

After opening the snacks he brought, Wen Feng shook his head: "Look, that little girl only thinks of these ways to make money from everyone!"

"Why isn't this good? It's not easy to come up with this idea. What's more, it looks good and tastes good! There's also gold!" The princess ate a piece and was very satisfied.

"The little girl has studied you women thoroughly and is making money by doing dirty things."

"It seems that Mr. Wen knows women very well?"

"No way!"

The two chatted and laughed for a long time, and then they became more interested and played a game of chess.

Both of them were of average level. After a stalemate for a long time, Wen Feng narrowly won, and they both felt very satisfied.

When the princess served tea to see the guest off, Wen Feng felt reluctant to leave, but he did not dare to persuade her like he did with other women. He just bowed and left in a graceful manner.

Huiduan looked at the empty house and thought of the man's playful laughter just now, feeling a little lost.
