This woman Li Fenglan is not only ruthless, she is also unkind and unjust.
This is Chi Junqing's only idea at the moment.
Ye Yu Xiaozhu has a set of comments about Li Fenglan, saying that she is resourceful, but has too many worries and is a little timid in doing things. This evaluation is quite fair. Li Fenglan is also very aware of her own strengths and weaknesses, but when it comes to "drawing out the 睚禦", these shortcomings do not exist.
Chi Junqing has a far-fetched relationship with her, and it has nothing to do with Li Fenglan whether she is dead or not.
At this moment, Chi Junqing, two servants of the Li family were throwing out his "luggage". In fact, he had no luggage at all. Li Fenglan specially arranged this in order to act more realistically.
"Mr. Chi, my lady told me to take your luggage and go away. You are not allowed to go near the Li family in the future."
Chi Junqing bent down to pick up the luggage on the ground, looking a little pitiful.
But he didn't sound pitiful at all. He kept muttering in a low voice: "Damn Li Fenglan, after all, I came here with useful information, so you just drive me away like this? How dangerous is it? If I die, I won't turn into a ghost." I will let you go. Bah, you are unkind and unjust."
But if you think about it carefully, there is no friendship between him and Li Fenglan. They were enemies a month ago.
Standing in the small attic of the Li family, Zhu Mingyu asked, "Can it be done?"
Li Fenglan nodded: "I don't know."
"I said... you don't know what you are nodding to? If it doesn't work, others will be dead."
"Just die, it will make Chen Zijue less afraid of me."
Zhu Mingyu smiled helplessly: "Pretend to drive him out, lure Ye Yu Xiaozhu's killer into action, and then you can enjoy the benefits. Don't you think there are lots of loopholes?"
"If you were Yaizhen, would you continue to assassinate?"
Zhu Mingyu shook his head: "No, I will wait and see for a while."
"Well, let him wait and see for a while. Chi Junqing can live a few more days."
Zhu Mingyu advised: "He came to seek refuge with you, and I think what he said is true. I believe you don't doubt him very much. Didn't Brother Liu Dun also seek refuge with you? Aren't they also your enemies before? You betrayed even half of your own people, who will cooperate with you after word gets out?"
Li Fenglan patiently explained: "I said, I will try my best to save his life. I will not let him die if I can."
"Then can you tell me about your back-up plan?"
"There is no back-up."
Zhu Mingyu was puzzled: "You have no backup plan? Then how can you protect him?"
Li Fenglan looked at the West Courtyard: "Yaizu participated in the siege of Shangguan's family. Li Fengyao knew about it. In fact, I didn't know at first whether he was a member of the family. I didn't even know whether he came to Yangzhou. I said that on purpose. Let her hear it. Zhu Mingyu, don't you want to know how much power Li Fengyao has hidden?" Kanshu La
Zhu Mingyu waved her hand: "Do you think everyone is the same as you mother and daughter? Aren't you afraid of getting older with so many calculations every day? Look at Amber, she doesn't have any pretense in her head. When she is thirty years old, she will still look like a little girl. .”
Li Fenglan frowned: "You can't speak without Amber recently, right? Never leave Amber."
Zhu Mingyu stretched, turned and walked towards the stairs, saying as he walked: "That's right, after all, Amber is guarding me, unlike some people who can't see her even if they want to."
"You're boring like this, you know?"
Zhu Mingyu stopped, turned to look at Li Fenglan, and said with a wicked smile: "I am seeking revenge. Since Chen Wu is not here, I will let you listen."
This left Li Fenglan speechless.
…
After driving for two months, Xu Qingchen and Linghan finally saw Yangzhou City.
"I used to come to Yangzhou often," Linghan said with a smile while riding a horse. "I was still young at that time, and the master often went out to visit friends. When he was away, he asked his senior brother to take me back to Yangzhou."
"They say Yangzhou is very beautiful. I wanted to come here when I first came down from the mountain, but I didn't have enough money, so I made money first."
"Brother Qingchen, when we enter the city later, we will go find our senior brother and sister-in-law first, and then we will go to Li's house tomorrow.
OK? "
"good."
The two of them also heard some rumors on the road. Of course, they also heard about Li Fenglan's earth-shattering incident of massacre of more than forty people outside Yangzhou City. Of course, they knew that Li Fenglan did not know martial arts. This matter should be about jade or amber. of.
Zhang Yuan's family is located in the most prosperous area in the middle of Yangzhou City. I think the Zhang family in Yangzhou was an absolutely wealthy family back then, but after the death of Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, their eldest son Zhang Yuan was not very good at taking care of the family business, and the Zhang family gradually declined. Last year, Zhang Yuan returned to Yangzhou City and began to take care of the family business again. He actually slowly restored a family that was about to fall.
The two of them arrived at the door of a rather impressive house. Before they even got off their horses, the old man sitting at the door basking in the sun saw Ayahan on the horse, and then his expression became delighted.
"Ah! Ni'er, you're here!" The old man's legs were weak, but he still tried to walk faster.
Linghan quickly jumped off the horse and helped the old man: "Grandpa Qin, please slow down, don't fall."
The old man looked at Linghan with a smile: "But I haven't been here for two or three years, and I have grown into a big girl."
At this time, the old man noticed Xu Qingchen behind Linghan and asked, "Who is this?"
"Oh, he is eldest brother's sworn brother."
"Oh," the old man suddenly realized, "I heard that when the young master came back, he said he had a sworn brother. He talked about it every day."
Xu Qingchen saluted: "I've met Grandpa Qin."
"Hey, you're welcome, come home quickly."
With that said, he pulled the two people into the yard.
The Zhang Family House is a typical Jiangnan house, very exquisite.
After entering the yard, the old man shouted: "Master! Madam! Look who is coming!"
After a while, a burly man like an iron tower came out.
"Master Qin, who is here? So happy...yo!"
Seeing the two people entering the courtyard, Zhang Yuan's brows were filled with joy, and he strode forward to greet them. He couldn't help but take the two people into his arms: "Linghan! Qingchen! Let me wait for you!"
Xu Qingchen was embarrassed to be treated with such enthusiasm, but Linghan didn't care and said affectionately: "Senior brother, it's been a long time no see. Where is my sister-in-law?"
Zhang Yuan pushed the two of them away and looked them up and down: "Okay, everything is good. Come with me into the house to meet your sister-in-law! Master Qin! Let Shang Gourmet Restaurant order a table of food and wine! Let them send it to your home!"
"okay!"
Then he pulled the two of them from left to right and ran towards the backyard. Before they even entered the backyard, Zhang Yuan started shouting: "From home! Look who's here!"
Shouting all the way, he pulled the two of them into the bedroom. In the bedroom, Jin Huayan was lying on the bed, looking towards the door. Her face was a little pale and her body seemed to be not as strong as last year.
Seeing the pair of beauties held by her man, Jin Huayan's sick face had a hint of joy.
"Linghan, Qingchen, why are you two here?"
Linghan ran over and held Jin Huayan's hands: "Sister-in-law, I miss you and came here especially to see you."
Xu Qingchen stepped forward and clasped his fists and bowed: "Qingchen has met my sister-in-law."
"Qingchen, you are still so polite."
Linghan asked: "Sister-in-law, you... look a little bad."
"It's been raining a few days, so I'm a little bit cold. It's okay... How are you two getting along?"
"fine."
The four of them chatted for a while, and Zhang Yuan quickly arranged a place for them to stay. After resting for less than half an hour, it was already dark. The servants had already brought back a table of delicious food from the Food Court, which was just in time for the two of them to catch up and wash away their dust.
Jin Huayan's health is not as good as last year, but she insists on sitting with them.
"So, you guys have been to a lot of places along the way." Zhang Yuan drank a few glasses of wine and became more talkative.
Linghan clapped her fingers and said, "First we went to Chang'an, then to Suzhou, and later we visited Dunhuang and Crescent Moon Spring... We have been traveling together for half a year."
Jin Huayan smiled and nodded: "It's good for the two of you to go out for a walk together. It's just a good time to get used to each other."
These words made Ling
Han was a little shy.
Zhang Yuan asked loudly: "Linghan grew up with me, and Qingchen is my brother. In front of you two, I won't beat around the bush... Are you two interested in each other?"
This made Ayami even more shy.
Zhang Yuan and his wife knew that they had met years ago. After that, Linghan followed Xu Qing to the Thorn Gate and they also knew that they had sent a letter back together after the year. I just don’t know if the two of them love each other.
Xu Qingchen cleared his throat: "I just want to take this opportunity today."
After Xu Qingchen finished speaking, he pulled Linghan and stood up. Zhang Yuan and his wife were a little confused.
Xu Qingchen clasped his fists and said, "Brother, sister-in-law. Linghan and I are both orphans. Linghan grew up with you, and you took care of her like your own sister. You two saved me in Runan last year. The grace of rebuilding. Today, I have a heartless request, and I ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law to agree to it."
"Qingchen, what are you going to say? It's so formal."
Xu Qingchen smiled, took Linghan's hand, and knelt down in front of the two of them.
"As the saying goes, an eldest brother is like a father. Linghan and I both have neither father nor mother, so our eldest brother and sister-in-law have to make the final decision on life-long matters. Brother, I adore Linghan, and Linghan also invites you to come and be with me. I also ask you two You are the one who made the decision and promised to marry Linghan to me."
After hearing this, Zhang Yuan was stunned for a long time, until Jin Huayan pushed him: "Speak, I beg you."
Only then did Zhang Yuan come back to his senses, and then he clapped his hands excitedly: "Okay! Okay! Of course I agree! At home! Do you agree?"
Jin Huayan smiled softly: "Promise."
Xu Qingchen and Linghan looked at each other, smiled, and kowtowed to Zhang Yuan and his wife. This time Zhang Yuan did not stop him from kowtowing and accepted it generously.
After kowtowing, Zhang Yuan helped the two of them stand up. A pair of golden boys and girls stood in front of him. Zhang Yuan was so happy that he was speechless.
Zhang Yuan rubbed his hands and said, "You two didn't even tell me in advance. A few months ago, your sister-in-law and I were whispering about where we were, and we didn't even send a message. To tell you the truth, I was ready to find someone for Linghan in Yangzhou, but luckily you came back early."
Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "We have been busy traveling during this period, and we have no time to write letters... By the way, brother, there is one more thing."
"What's up?"
"We want to get married."
Zhang Yuan was confused: "Isn't this what we were talking about just now? Didn't your sister-in-law and I agree?"
"No," Xu Qingchen shook his head, "What we mean is... to get married now."
This was even more unexpected than Zhang Yuan and his wife. They were wondering why they had to wait another year and a half before getting married. Ayana was used to being free since she was a child, so she couldn't adapt to being suddenly asked to marry someone. Who would have thought that Xu Qingchen's words were "get married now" and the couple would not be able to deal with it.
Jin Huayan asked: "So urgent?"
Xu Qingchen scratched the back of his head and said, "Let's get married as soon as possible... We're both eldest now. I discussed it with Linghan on the way. My eldest brother and sister-in-law don't have children. Let's have a few more and give them to you."
Ayana blushed and pinched him: "When did we say this?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Huayan said: "That's okay, it's early. You two don't know your birth date, let's find someone nearby to see if you have a good time."
Zhang Yuan nodded vigorously: "I think we will have someone clean up the house tomorrow. We have to deal with it quickly... By the way, Qingchen, there is one more thing."
Xu Qingchen asked: "What's the matter?"
"Look at this bride price..."
Linghan said loudly: "Senior brother, you can do it! Why don't you give a betrothal gift?"
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but laugh: "Sure, you started thinking about your man before you even got married. Not bad, not bad!"
