Chapter 140 Taste
The steward quickly stepped back and said, "No, no, since His Royal Highness has chosen her, I don't have the guts to do that."
Xie Tingzhou looked at Chen Yu, "Since you have found this place, why don't you come in."
Chen Yu lifted her skirt and strode into the room, but she felt her gait was too heroic, so she quickly stopped and walked slowly to Xie Tingzhou's side.
Xie Tingzhou leaned against the pillow and looked up at her, "Are you unhappy?"
Shen Yu looked at him. Isn't this obvious? How can one respond to this?
Xie Tingzhou grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "I just came out to drink, I didn't do anything, why are you so angry that you don't say anything?"
He wiped her fingers, his eyes fell on the indelible red, and suddenly pulled hard, and Chen Yu fell into his arms unexpectedly.
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Isn’t it said that Xie Tingzhou is now fond of men and just snatched his young prostitute back from the Jiang Mansion a few days ago?
Today at the Jiaofangsi, he only glanced at Fuying twice more, and he was indifferent when asked to be the first person to pick flowers. Why did he change his mind now?
He had already acted out the drama to this point. Chen Yu gritted her teeth and snorted in a controlled tone, "You clearly told me that you were going to meet a friend, but now? You have to come here to meet your friend. Can't we talk about it without a prostitute?"
She pointed with her slender finger, "And what about her?"
Fu Ying was frightened when she pointed at her and shrank back a little.
Xie Tingzhou looked at her with interest. Was she really jealous after acting? He couldn't tell for a moment.
Xie Tingzhou held Shen Yu's hand and coaxed her, "She's just a wine pourer. She hasn't even touched anyone, but she's already gotten the taste."
Chen Yu struggled and twisted her body in his arms, "Do I need to be so close to you to pour the wine? I'm almost sticking to you."
"Can I let her go now?" Xie Tingzhou coaxed, waving his hand to let Fu Ying step aside.
Then he said to Li Chang in the room, "I'm sorry, Ziyu."
Ziyu was Li Chang's nickname. Among the princes and nobles in Shengjing, he was considered to be a well-known figure.
Seeing Xie Tingzhou's henpecked look, Li Chang raised his glass to his lips and laughed twice, "I originally thought that the prince was an immortal who was not interested in worldly affairs, but I didn't expect that he was also a man of temperament."
"With soft jade and warm fragrance in one's arms, no one can escape from it."
Xie Tingzhou pulled Chen Yu into his arms, picked up a handkerchief and wiped her hands, saying in a neither loud nor soft voice, "If you are angry, just let the servants do it. Why did you do it yourself? Does it hurt?"
little prince
Then he said, "My two guards were ignorant and offended the prince's people. They will be severely punished later."
Chen Yu didn't know whether he was acting or for real, but her heart couldn't stop beating wildly. With Xie Tingzhou's tactics, how many women in the world could resist?
Shen Yu retracted her hand, but Xie Tingzhou held it tightly, tilted his head and whispered in her ear: "Don't move, there's blood on your hand."
Only then did Shen Yu see that there was still blood between the little finger and on the edge of the nail that had not been wiped off and had already solidified.
While Xie Tingzhou was wiping her hands, he whispered in her ear, "What were you doing?"
Chen Yu leaned on his shoulder, her eyes turned cold and she said, "He killed someone."
This sentence was said so calmly, as calmly as saying that one had eaten a meal.
Xie Tingzhou paused, turned his head slightly to look at her, then lowered his head to wipe her hands.
"Let me wipe your ass again."
Chen Yu's cheeks flushed, and she corrected him, "It was just wiping my hands, I could have left anyway."
Xie Tingzhou asked back: "Then why didn't you leave?"
This question stumped Chen Yu, and she naturally couldn't say that she was here to catch someone having an affair.
Chen Yu leaned on his shoulder, her back facing everyone, so others couldn't see her face and didn't know how red her cheeks were at the moment.
The two were close to each other and spoke in low voices, so other people thought they were flirting and everyone else didn't know where to look.
"Hmm?" Xie Tingzhou stroked her back, only to find that she was wearing too thin clothes. The gauze was semi-transparent, and the glances that stole towards her made him unhappy.
"Bring me the cloak." Xie Tingzhou waved his hand.
Fu Ying hurriedly took out the cloak and handed it forward. Xie Tingzhou took the cloak and spread it out, covering the person in his arms tightly.
This is something that people don't even want to take a look at.
Li Chang smiled, looked at the manager who was rubbing his hands anxiously at the door, and asked, "What's the matter?"
The steward hurriedly said, "My dear young prince, someone died ahead."
It was just a death of one person, Li Chang did not take it seriously at all. Some customers were generous and ruthless, and it was common for a girl to die today and a maid to die tomorrow.
"Who is it?" Li Chang asked calmly.
The manager said anxiously, "It's the son of the Dou family, Dou Qing!"
"What?" Li Chang spilled the wine in his hand.
Dou Qing is not a big shot, but everyone in Beijing knows about his relationship with the Jiang family. Dou Qing is the only child in the Dou family, and more importantly, he is also Jiang Lianzhi's cousin.
The headmaster said anxiously: "Young Lord, this is not all, the one who killed people is a soldier.
Minister Wen’s nephew Wen Lesheng!”
Li Chang pushed the woman in his arms away and asked coldly, "Tell me again, who is the murderer?!"
"It was Wen Lesheng who killed Dou Qing." The head of the office said, "The servants of the young master of the Dou family have already reported to the authorities, and the people from Shuntian Prefecture will be here soon. What should we do?"
Li Chang stood up and bowed to Xie Tingzhou, "Your Highness, excuse me. Something happened in the building, which ruined your interest. I hope you won't blame me. You can take a rest first. I will go to the front to take a look and make sure no one disturbs you."
Xie Tingzhou embraced Chen Yu, "Since Ziyu is busy, I can't stay for long. This commotion at home is endless."
Chen Yu elbowed him and whispered, "You've overacted."
Xie Tingzhou smiled and said, "Tzuyu, go first, we will leave on our own."
All the people in the room left at once, and Shen Yu supported herself and stepped out of Xie Tingzhou's arms.
Xie Tingzhou felt his arms go empty, and the whole room became a little colder. "You are quite courageous."
Shen Yu complained, "Who told you not to take me with you?"
Xie Tingzhou just fell for it. The scolding made him feel relieved. "Wen Lesheng killed someone. What happened?"
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
"Let's go." Xie Tingzhou stood up and said.
Chen Yu stood up, and her cloak slid to the ground. She straightened her clothes, which were messy from the hug they had just had.
Xie Tingzhou looked him up and down and asked, "Where did the clothes come from?"
As she sorted them out, Chen Yu said naturally, "I found them in a prostitute's closet, and I threw mine into the stove in the kitchen at the back and burned them."
"Does it look good?" She turned around in front of him.
Xie Tingzhou glanced at it again, his Adam's apple moved slightly, he turned his face and said, "It's shoddy, it's better to wear a men's suit for you."
Chen Yu glanced at him, and when she was about to go out, Xie Tingzhou grabbed her wrist, picked up the cloak and wrapped it tightly around her, and also covered her with the hood.
After leaving the room, Shen Yu's hand was still held by him. As soon as she pulled it away, the force in his hand became tighter.
Xie Tingzhou: "What are you hiding for?"
Chen Yu stopped struggling and let him lead her to the front door.
The Jiaofangsi was filled with people from Shuntian Prefecture both inside and outside. It was estimated that all the personnel that could be mobilized from all the government offices were transferred here. There were three layers of people inside and outside, surrounding the Jiaofangsi like an iron barrel.
Xie Tingzhou took Chen Yu out. When Liu Fu, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, saw him, he did not dare to stop him. He hurriedly asked someone to make way for them and personally escorted Xie Tingzhou to the carriage.
“Wait!”
