Knowing that he had no escape in front of the other party, Yin, the governor of Shangjing, said with a pale face, "Your Highness, I am loyal to Mr. Chen in this humble position!"
In this Shangjing Prefecture Yin's understanding, being loyal to the Chen family meant being loyal to His Highness. He did not believe that His Highness would even deal with one of his own people.
Unexpectedly, when Zhao Yanzhen heard this, his face showed a harsh and cold expression.
At that time, the direct descendants of the Chen family were arrogant and extravagant. After the death of Mrs. Chen, they were charged with treason, and then they declined rapidly. Now it seems that his father Huangan's crime has not wronged them in the slightest.
"Master Chen? Which Master Chen? As an official of the imperial court, you are not loyal to the imperial court. Instead, you are just like a dog and a dog! Forming a clique for personal gain! What do you want to do?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yanzhen would scold him angrily, so Yin, the governor of Shangjing, naturally did not dare to continue to say who he was. He just buried his head on the ground, sweating.
Just now, he relied on the fact that everyone in this room was one of his own, so he dared to say those treacherous words so arrogantly. I didn't expect him to be eager to reveal his identity, but instead forgot about the scruples of keeping a secret for the venerable person.
He knelt on the ground and did not dare to say anything more. He only whispered, "The crime of humble duty deserves death!"
While they were talking fiercely, no one noticed the movement of the person quietly leaving on the eaves.
At the same time, after Mo Xia found out who the person who helped her was, she also took the initiative to thank Chen Changnian and prepared to help the fainted shop owner to leave.
Originally, Chen Yannian was still observing the injury of the seriously injured secret guard.
After hearing that Mo Xia was leaving, Chen Hongnian didn't care about the life or death of the secret guard. She just kowtowed to Mo Xia and said, "Senior Mo, Yannian wants to make you your master! Please accept me as your disciple, Senior Mo!"
Mo Xia did like this girl. Although she was a noblewoman, she had a chivalrous spirit about her.
Nowadays, the prosperous and peaceful life may be because the comfortable life has been too long. She has traveled all over the country to find a girl, but she has not seen such a chivalrous person in a long time.
If she hadn't been worried about her, she might have taken this girl under her wing.
But her daughter has not been found yet, so she has to wander around. Naturally, she cannot have time to teach this girl.
Mo Xia smiled slightly and praised, "Young girl has a chivalrous spirit and is a noble lady. I think all I need from you is a command from the girl, and there will be a master to teach her. My whereabouts are uncertain, and I may not stay in Beijing for too long. If I take the girl in, As a disciple, I'm afraid it will delay the girl's affairs."
After saying that, Mo Xia was about to leave. Not wanting to see that Mo Xia was about to leave, Chen Changnian felt anxious, so he immediately knelt down and moved a few steps, hugging Mo Xia's calf.
If it weren't for the fact that the girl in front of her was also a girl, Mo Xia might have subconsciously kicked her away.
However, although she did not kick Chen Changnian away, her face was a bit unnatural, "What are you doing, girl! You can't do this!"
"Senior Mo, please accept me as your disciple! You are my childhood idol, and I have been reading storybooks about you since I was a child! My motivation for learning martial arts in the first place was also that I wanted to be as heroic and righteous as you!"
Mo Xia felt dumbfounded for a moment when Chen Changnian was so persistent in his pursuit.
"Girls don't have to be like this."
At this time, even Zhao Yanzhen and his group, who had completed the handover with Shangjing Prefecture Yin, also saw the scene here.
Zhao Yanzhen smiled slightly: "Senior Mo, my cousin has indeed admired your senior's style since she was a child. Please help her. I don't ask you to really accept her as your disciple. I just ask that you have some time during this period in Beijing. Just give her a few pointers. As for becoming a disciple, we’ll talk about it later.”
Zhao Yanzhen's words taught Mo Xia not to refuse, so she could only say, "If that's the case, I will do it."
When he heard that Mo Xia was relieved, although he failed to become a disciple, Chen Yannian still felt that he had received an unexpected surprise.
"Great, why don't you, senior, live in my house during this period?" Chen Changnian suggested.
Mo Xia was obviously worried, so Zhao Yanzhen added, "Senior Mo, don't worry, there are only three female dependents in the Chen Mansion now. The rules of coming and going are not strict, and there is no big problem for seniors to come and go. And in this way, I My cousin will also know when you have time to give her advice."
Zhao Yanzhen's words were very appropriate and reasonable, so Mo Xia naturally stopped trying to evade them.
Chen Yannian is naturally very happy to be able to live in the same house as her idol.
At this time, everyone in the hall was empty. Even the waiter who ran the hall and the wine seller didn't know where they were.
The dishes prepared earlier were already very fishy, and after a period of delay, they might not be able to be eaten. Naturally, everyone no longer stayed in the tavern.
When it was time to leave, Chen Changnian just remembered that Jiang Nianjiao hadn't shown up yet.
Unexpectedly, when she was about to turn around and look for him, she saw Zhao Yanzhen carrying Jiang Nianjiao out of the restaurant.
Chen Changnian couldn't help but feel nervous, "What's wrong with Gillian?"
"It's nothing, I just drank two more drinks and am very drunk now."
Hearing Zhao Yanzhen's words, Chen Changnian felt strange in his heart. After all, as far as she knew, Gillian never drank alcohol.
Thinking about this cousin, although outsiders say he is a humble gentleman, as gentle as jade. But as someone close to him, she also knew that the rumors from the outside world were completely different. This person had many calculations.
Besides, it is not impossible for her cousin to be attracted by Gillian's beauty, so Chen Changnian's face darkened, "Did you deliberately get Gillian drunk and be frivolous towards her?"
Zhao Yanzhen looked quite innocent, "Why would my cousin think so? Jiaojiao drank this wine by herself. Besides, if I drink wine, will she obey?"
Although Chen Yannian didn't know whether Zhao Yanzhen's words were true or not, he thought that Jiang Nianjiao was not stupid. If she didn't want to do something, no one could force her to do it.
So after some thought, she stopped pressing the question, "It's okay if you didn't force me to drink."
But she was obviously still a little unhappy. "But can you call me Jiaojiao? Is she familiar with you?"
"If you don't call her Jiaojiao, what should you call her?" Zhao Yanzhen was used to Chen Changnian's criticism.
It's a pity that Chen Changnian, who only cared about finding faults, never came up with a reasonable explanation.
She could only look at Zhao Yanzhen unhappily and said, "You can't call me Jiaojiao anyway! Gillian will marry my third brother in the future. You call her so close. If there is any quarrel between the two of them in the future! What should you do?" ?”
Zhao Yanzhen just smiled slightly, "Cousin, don't be willful."
After saying that, he planned to leave with Jiang Nianjiao in his arms.
Naturally, Chen Yannian could not let Zhao Yanzhen take Jiang Nianjiao away in such a grand manner. She was about to snatch Jiang Nianjiao from Zhao Yanzhen, but Zhao Yanzhen shouted, "Senior Mo Xia, where are you going?"
When Chen Yannian heard this, he immediately looked back. However, when he turned around, Mo Xia was walking into the carriage with no sign of leaving at all.
She knew she had been deceived, and when she turned around, Zhao Yanzhen had already boarded the carriage.
"Sister Qian, don't worry. I will send Jiaojiao back to the palace."
…
When Jiang Nianjiao woke up from her drunken state, her head still hurt badly.
Vaguely, she could only see the bright lights in the room and the fragrance of the conservatory.
When a maid opened the crystal curtain in the inner room and came in, she saw Jiang Nianjiao sitting up with her head propped up. The maid immediately said with joy, "Miss, you're awake! Are you thirsty?"
Jiang Nianjiao raised her eyes and realized that the person coming was Yao Ping, the eldest maid in her aunt's courtyard.
She also knew that she had returned to Yuxiu Palace, but she was very drunk at the time, so she didn't know how she came back.
"Girl, let's drink some hangover soup to relieve fatigue first. I see that the girl seems to have a headache? Does she need a massage?" Yaoping asked warmly.
Jiang Nianjiao was a little flattered for a moment, and when she saw Yao Ping's face looked a little happy, she couldn't help but asked doubtfully, "Aunt Yao Ping, is there any happy event today?"
Yao Ping could no longer hide her joy. She covered her lips and said with a smile, "There is a letter from Mr. Gao. His Majesty forwarded this letter to our empress."
Jiang Nianjiao was naturally happy after hearing this. Although she didn't have much contact with her uncle, she couldn't help but feel worried when she saw her aunt anxious every day.
She was originally frustrated that she was drunk today and could not force Zhao Yanzhen to tell the truth. Instead, she got herself drunk.
Now that the emperor can receive a letter from his uncle, Zhao Yanzhen may not be trying to embarrass his uncle.
She put on her shoes and wanted to see Concubine Yu Xian, but Yao Ping stopped Jiang Nianjiao. She smiled and said, "Girl, please don't go there today. His Highness is currently talking to Concubine Xian. I'm afraid there will be no return today." We will stay in Yuxiu Palace."
After listening to Yaoping's words, Jiang Nianjiao naturally stopped going over it.
After all, Emperor Yong's stay at Yuxiu Palace was undoubtedly telling others that Concubine Yuxian's favor was still there.
Naturally, she had no reason to approach the couple.
Yao Ping then said, "Girl, you can have dinner in the side hall today."
Jiang Nianjiao nodded naturally when she heard this.
After Yaoping left, the room became quiet again. Although she couldn't remember what she said or did when she was drunk, she vaguely remembered that the system seemed to have appeared before.
So after Yaoping left, she finally decided to take the initiative to contact the system, "A Tong? Tong'er? Xiao Tongtong? Are you there?"
Jiang Nianjiao called out a few times tentatively, but there was dead silence in the room.
Jiang Nianjiao had no choice but to say loudly, "I'll count one, two, three. If you don't come out, I won't do this task!"
I have to say that this threat was very effective. The system finally made a sound, but the mechanical electronic voice sounded listless, "Host, what's the matter?"
He spoke very slowly, each word drawn out extremely long, and he clearly seemed to be in a state of malfunction.
Jiang Nianjiao could only ask in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
The system is still listless. "Thanks to the host, Ah Tong has been punished by the main system. When the power is exhausted, Ah Tong will sleep in a small dark room for a while."
Jiang Nianjiao was puzzled, how could this system be punished?
However, the system seems to be afraid that its power will be completely exhausted, and it has not finished explaining everything that needs to be explained.
It didn't give Jiang Nianjiao a chance to speak at all, and only continued to chatter in a long voice: "During the time when A Tong is locked up in the dark room, the host please don't forget to actively complete the task at hand, otherwise A Tong will never be able to get out of the dark room." , the host cannot accept the mission, and when the points are consumed to -100, the host will be completely wiped out!"
Finally, the system emphatically explained, "Finally, the main point is to warn the host, Zhao Yanzhen is in danger! Zhao Yanzhen is in danger! Zhao Yanzhen is in danger. Please tell important things three times. Please be sure not to have any interaction with Zhao Yanzhen!"
As soon as the words fell, the system was completely silent as if it had finished delivering its last words.
