Chapter 598 Just try to hit me!
The shopkeeper pretended not to hear the future princess's ridicule of the King of England and asked respectfully.
"What should we do next?"
Luo Yechen asked back: "What did Jingzhao Prefecture say?"
The shopkeeper relayed the story truthfully.
"The people in Jingzhao Prefecture said that since the food and wine were not drugged, there was no way to file a case and the government could not intervene. They suggested that we settle the matter privately."
Luo Yechen was used to being arrogant and didn't want to suffer this loss in silence.
But he didn't know if there was any better solution.
Bu Shengyan grew up in the border area, where there are many people and all kinds of gossip, and you can meet all kinds of people.
In the past, there have been people who deliberately slandered the food in a restaurant, saying that there were problems with it just to get a free meal.
Originally, the store owner wanted to settle the matter privately.
After all, we are all open for business and don’t want to quarrel with others over such a small matter.
Unexpectedly, those scoundrels became more aggressive and continued to make undue demands.
Therefore, when solving this kind of problem, you have to be quick and decisive, and never give the other party the impression that the store is easy to bully.
Bu Shengyan said slowly
“Since there is nothing wrong with the food and wine, it means Xie Chuxue is making a false accusation.
For the sake of Liuguang Pavilion's reputation, I suggest that you write this matter into an announcement and post it at the entrance of Liuguang Pavilion.
Let everyone know the truth.
This is to prevent someone from making a fuss about this matter and suspecting that there is something wrong with the food at Liuguang Pavilion."
If it were someone else, they might have to consider King Xiling's reputation and not dare to do anything too drastic.
But Luo Yechen was not afraid at all.
They are all princes, and he is the eldest son of the current emperor. In terms of status alone, he is no worse than the King of Xiling. Why should he swallow his anger in front of the King of Xiling? !
If you don’t agree, just fight!
Luo Yechen immediately made the decision: "Just do as Miss Bu said!"
The shopkeeper bowed and replied, "Yes."
After explaining all these things, Luo Yechen remembered the wine that Marquis Dingbei wanted, so he asked the shopkeeper to get the best wine in Liuguang Pavilion.
The shopkeeper immediately asked someone to bring out a jar of wine from the wine cellar.
He specially polished the wine jar until it sparkled, and then moved it in front of the King of England.
"My Lord, this is the wine you requested."
Luo Yechen: "Move it to the carriage. I will send it to Dingbei Hou later."
It turned out that the prince wanted to give this wine to his future father-in-law! The shopkeeper suddenly understood and smiled even more attentively.
"Okay!"
He was about to move the wine away when Bu Shengyan stopped him.
"Wait a moment."
The shopkeeper asked respectfully, "Miss Bu, do you have any other instructions?"
Bu Shengyan said, "Go get a new wine jar, a smaller one, and also a basin of boiled water and a wooden spoon for selling wine."
The shopkeeper didn't understand what she wanted to do, but he did as she asked and brought her everything she wanted.
Bu Shengyan removed the seal on the wine jar and opened the lid.
The rich aroma of wine emanates.
She put the wooden spoon in, carefully scooped out five spoonfuls of wine, and then poured the basin of boiled water into it.
The shopkeeper gasped when he saw this and cried out in pain.
"Miss Bu, what are you doing? This is top-quality aged Hua Diao, very precious, and you may not be able to buy it even if you have money. Why did you dilute it with water?"
This is simply a waste of resources!
Bu Shengyan said calmly: "My father is in poor health and can't drink alcohol. I will add some water to his drink so that he can drink the alcohol without hurting his body."
The shopkeeper was still feeling distressed, and he looked at the wine jar as if he was looking at his own daughter who had been abused by someone.
Luo Yechen didn't think there was anything wrong.
"Isn't it just a jar of wine? What's wrong with adding some water? I've drunk wine diluted with water before. They said it was a good idea. I bought wine and got water for free. They didn't charge me more. Look how business-minded they are!"
Shopkeeper: “…”
He took a deep breath and silently told himself that this was Concubine Hui's biological son, he could not beat or scold him, he could only endure it!
Bu Shengyan looked at Luo Yechen with an indescribable look.
"You are rich, aren't you? Why do you even drink wine diluted with water?"
Luo Yechen swelled up his face and pretended to be rich: "I call that experiencing life. I want to see what kind of wine the lower-class people drink?"
Bu Shengyan exposed him mercilessly.
"You're just stupid."
Luo Yechen was furious: "I'm warning you, don't call me stupid again, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Bu Shengyan: "You are stupid, stupid, you are stupid!"
Luo Yechen raised his right hand and pretended to hit someone.
The shopkeeper quickly advised, "Your Majesty, please talk it over nicely, don't do anything!"
Luo Yechen: "Look at how arrogant she is. If I don't teach her a lesson, she will fly up to the sky!"
The shopkeeper said anxiously, "You can't do anything about it!"
Not only was Bu Shengyan not afraid, but she took a step forward and put her body in front of Luo Yechen.
"How do you want to teach me a lesson? Do you really dare to hit me?"
Luo Yechen stiffened his neck and said, "Don't force me! I won't recognize any relatives when I get angry!"
Bu Shengyan moved closer: "Try to hit me! I want to see how fierce you can be."
Luo Yechen didn't expect that this woman would be so fierce.
He raised his hands, but she was not afraid.
The shopkeeper was still watching from the side. Luo Yechen didn't want to admit defeat, but if he really had to fight back, he didn't dare to.
He hesitated for a long time, and finally lowered his hand and gently patted Bu Shengyan on the face.
The action was soft and gentle, just like coaxing a child.
Luo Yechen blushed: "I, I did."
Shopkeeper: “…”
Is that what you call beating?
You are clearly taking advantage of others!
Bu Shengyan obviously didn't expect Luo Yechen to react like this.
She couldn't help laughing out loud.
Hahaha!
Luo Yechen was furious: "What are you laughing at? I'm warning you, don't laugh!"
Bu Shengyan laughed so hard that tears almost came out: "Luo Yechen, why didn't I realize before that you are so funny?!"
Luo Yechen felt humiliated and wished he could cover this woman's mouth so that she could not speak anymore.
Unfortunately, the shopkeeper, who had no good eyesight, was still standing nearby. Luo Yechen couldn't do anything to Bu Shengyan. In the end, he could only hold his anger, pick up the jar of wine diluted with water and stride out.
Bu Shengyan followed behind him, laughing as he walked.
When the two of them got on the carriage, Bu Shengyan was still smiling.
There were only two of them in the carriage.
Luo Yechen had no more scruples and directly covered her mouth with his hand.
"Shut up and stop laughing!"
He did this action without thinking.
When Bu Shengyan stopped laughing, he finally realized what he had done.
His palm pressed against her red lips, and the soft touch made his heartbeat pause for a moment, then speed up wildly.
He swallowed involuntarily, and his Adam's apple slid up and down.
Bu Shengyan looked at him in surprise, as if she was very surprised by his action.
After a long while, Luo Yechen retracted his hand.
He hid his hands in his sleeves and clenched them into fists, as if he wanted to hold on to the remaining touch, lest it disappear.
In order to cover up his gaffe, he emphasized it again.
"Stop laughing."
