Chu Wang Fei-Chapter 121 Part 2 The Worker Ant Chu Moving the House Because of His Wife
“Yun Xiang, please proceed!” At this time, Jiao Da quietly appeared behind Yun Xuan Zhi, not in the least of prior indication as he spoke, frightening Yun Xuan Zhi who was still immersed in his deep thoughts, after which he ruthlessly glared at Jiao Da, then strode with heavy steps as he left Chu wangfu.
But, what made Yun Xuan Zhi felt even more irritated was, the moment he stepped inside the main gate of Yun Xiang Fu, the next moment Chu Fei Yang had assigned the steward of Chu Xiang Fu to drop by and ask for Yun Qian Meng’s dowry .
Being furious, Yun Xuan Zhi had assigned all the tasks to Liu Han Yu.
Liu Han Yu already knew that Yun Qian Meng was married to Chu Fei Yang. She though that if Yun Yan’s marriage would be able to push through with the help of Yun Qian Meng, perhaps Yun Yan would not need to worry about the latter half part of her life anymore. Bearing this thought, she exerted even more efforts to prepare Yun Qian Meng’s dowry .
“Liu yininag, are all the dowry here complete already?” Seeing all the people carrying box by box of Qu Ruo Li’s dowry from Qi Luo Yuan, the steward of Chu Xiang Fu was holding the list given to him by Qu Ling Ao as he verified, until he reached the last page, he lifted up his head and asked Liu Han Yu who was standing beside him.
“Yes, Steward Hong! The dowry that the furen had left behind for our da xiaojie during those years, were all here!” Unable to understand why Steward Hong still had to ask this question, yet Liu Han Yu still responded respectfully.
Although she was Yun Xiang Fu’s yininag, but as compared to the steward of Chu Xiang Fu, she was still in a lower position.
Unexpectedly, Steward Hong still wrinkled his brows upon hearing her answer, afterwhich he pointed at the numerous records containing a lot of lists from every courtyard on the last page, then asked, “But the deed for land and house in the courtyard where the furen was married in during those years were missing! Please carefully inspect on it, Liu yininag, where were these important documents like the deed for land and house being placed?”
Having heard what was said, Liu Han Yu was frightened, She remembered the time when Yun Xuan Mo and his wife had visited Yun Xiang Fu, inside old madam’s Bai Shun Tang, old madam had requested Yun Xuan Zhi to give the deed of land and house in the northern side of the capital to Yun Xuan Mo, but during that time Yun Xuan Zhi had rejected old madam’s request, and xiangye had mentioned that those house were to be given to Yun Qian Meng as her dowry in the future.
In this case, those deed of land and house must currently be in Yun Xuan Zhi’s possession.
But moments ago she had seen Yun Xuan Zhi’s ugly face, if she was to head over there to ask for them, perhaps it would only stir up Yun Xuan Zhi’s hate towards her.
Shifting her gaze, Liu Han Yu saw Steward Zhao who was standing aside, allowing him to approach she lowered down her voice and provided a few instructions. Embarrassment and fear could be seen across Steward Zhao’s face, yet Liu Han Yu resolutely glared at him, and he could only summon up his courage and walk towards the direction of the study room.
At the moment Yun Xuan Zhi was taking a nap inside his study room. During the recent few days of being held in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, he had not been able to eat or sleep properly, also being worried that Emperor Yu Qian would send another Imperial Decreeto sentence him with the criminal offense, hence for a long moment he was physically and mentally exhausted, in addition to being angered at Chu wangfu during the noon time Now Yun Xuan Zhi did not have any desire to think further about these things, he just wanted to properly take some rest, after regaining his mental strength he would only then continue to face those people who had intended to entrap him.
Who would have thought that when he had just lied down on the bed, someone came knocking on the door, afterwards steward Zhao’s voice echoed from the outside.
“Come in!” Putting on an outer clothing, Yun Xuan Zhi got up from the bed, putting on his shoes he went out of the inner room, seeing steward Zhao standing on the side waiting for him, he questioned, “What’s the matter?”
Steward Zhao lifted up his hand and wiped off the cold sweat on his head, afterwards, with fear and trepidation he relayed, “Xiangye, that Steward Hong from Chu Xiang Fu wanted nubi to come here to get the deed of land and house left behind by furen.”
After speaking, Steward Zhao immediately shut his mouth, tried hard to lower down his head, did not dare to look at Yun Xuan Zhi’s darkened face.
Yun Xuan Zhi suddenly stood up from his stool, with both eyes bearing knives as he glared at steward Zhao, and roared, “Does he also wanted to take my Yun Xiang Fu’s deed of land and house too? Why, is his master the only prime minister here, and I’m not? I am still his master’s father-in-law, he was actually being presumptuous, is he really that impatient?”
While speaking, Yun Xuan Zhi was enraged as he walked out, yet he was being held back by Steward Zhao.
Steward Zhao was feeling distressed, looking at Yun Xuan Zhi’s furious face he anxiously said, “Xiangye please calm down! That Steward Hong didn’t come here alone, Chu Wang’s man Jiao Da led a group of soldiers as they waited in the gates of our Xiang Fu, awaiting the dowry to be sent to Chu Xiang Fu. Our available guards inside the house might not be Jiao Da’s match!”
Having said so, steward Zhao felt a pair of murderous eyes were directly aimed at him.
Despite the fact that he knew when he said those words he would suffer from Yun Xuan Zhi’s reproach, but they were facing this fact in the current situation.
Chu Wang was someone who had survived the battlefield, even Emperor Yu Qian had to show some consideration on the troops under his control, let alone the Yun Xiang Fu who only had the literary aspect, it would be inviting disaster to go agains them.
And besides, to curry favor with Chu wangfu would always be a better choice than meeting it head-on.
Steward Zhao’s words made Yun Xuan Zhi temporarily cooled down his unforgiving fury in his head. Thinking about being able to come from the prison this time, also being restored to his official post, Chu Fei Yang played a significant role on it, having such kind of son-in-law, there was truly a lot of benefits, if he was to rigidly keep watch of Qu Ruo Li’s petty dowry and offended Chu Wang and the others, perhaps in the future should he be framed by someone else, they would just look on without lifting a single finger to help.
Thinking of this, Yun Xuan Zhi retracted his both legs back before he turned around and proceeded inside the inner room. From a darkroom he took out a case, opened it and inspected the thick layer of deeds of land and house inside, weighing it on his hand for a very long time, he smashed it towards the direction of steward Zhao, with anger he barked an order, “Get lost!”
Seeing he was about to complete his task, Steward Zhao immediately stooped down and picked up sheets of paper for the deeds which were scattered on the floor. Afterwards he held them in his hands as he fled away.
Steward Hong took over the thick fold of deeds of land and house, after carefully verify them with the book, he satisfyingly smiled. After which, he nodded his head towards Jiao Da who was standing in a corner who immediately waved his hand. Those soldiers who were standing outside the door quickly ran inside Yun Xiang Fu, with nimble actions, they lifted the boxes of dowry , then majestically walking towards the direction of Chu Xiang Fu.
“Many thanks to yininag for this!” Personally keeping those deeds away, steward Hong faced Liu Han Yu and cupped his hand, after which he left Yun Xiang Fu together with Jiao Da.
“Imperial bodyguard Jiao, where are we headed to? Didn’t xiangye instructed us to bring all the dowry to Chu Xiang Fu?”
“Don’t worry, we’re just taking the detour!” Jiao Da was riding on the horseback in a serious face, his face expressionless as he replied, causing steward Hong to cast sidelong glances at him, yet he was not able to see anything wrong in Jiao Da’s face.
Jiao Da just stared at the road ahead, leading all of them to walk forward.
But, the farther they went ahead, Steward Hong’s left eye started to tremble increasingly fast. If he did not remember it wrong, up ahead must be Chen wangfu, what was Jiao Da’s intention for bringing the furen dowry here?
Just when steward Hong was thinking hard, beside his ears, Jiao Da’s steady and calm voice yelled out, “Lift up your spirits, bring out your loftiness as if you were fighting hand in hand in the battlefield! If anyone was to be caught displaying his weakness in front of the enemies, he will be punished according to the military law!”
Being roared at by Jiao Da, all the soldiers immediately straightened up their chest and lifted up their heads, gallantly and full of vigor as they lifted up boxes of exceptionally precious dowry as they went inside Chen wangfu. Those orderly and powerful steps stomping onto the limestone road, suddenly issued a burst of sky-shaking noise, just like millions of powerful troops surging up, causing the passers-by on the road to evade them in succession. All the people were puzzled and wondering which family was marrying off their daughter, going so far as to have such grand procession.
But when they were about to approach Chen wangfu, those soldiers footsteps became heavier, directly vibrating through the limestone road causing it to shake violently. As a result, all the people showing a fearful expression on their faces, not knowing whether it was marrying off a daughter or bride kidnapping.
During this time the main gate of Chen wangfu was tightly closed, only the young manservant was guarding by the gate saw the aggressive troops. The young manswervant was so scared that he immediately retreated back inside the corner gate.
Seeing this situation, a bit of delight flickered in Jiao Da’s calm eyes, after which he tightened the horse reins in his hand and walked towards the gate of Chen wangfu. The horse unexpectedly looked up the sky and hissed, producing a sound that seemed to be extremely happy and proud of itself, then it satisfyingly walked back in front of the troops, passing through a row of dwelling place of the stewards, proceeding towards Chu Xiang Fu.
When all the people had left, that young manservant guarding the Chen wangfu secretly stretched forward his head from the corner gate, after which stretching out his hand to wipe his forehead. He discovered that it was cold sweat in his hand, but when he realized that he was still alive, yet he could not help but heaved a sigh of relief. A while ago he had been truly scared, those soldiers were bearing the murderous spirit, he almost thought that he would not be able to live up to this time.
The cold sweat on his head dispersed when this time it was covered by a new layer of it. The young servant lifted up his eyes and saw Chen Wang’s ice-cold face, immediately he knelt on both knees, and informed him the incident that had occurred a while ago in full details.
After sending off Yun Xuan Zhi, Chu Fei Yang did not immediately return to the newlyweds’ room, perhaps he knew that during this time, Yun Qian Meng and Qu Fei Qing were still having their private discussions. Instead he and Qu Ling Ao proceeded towards the study room following behind Chu Wang. The three of them had stayed inside the study room until dinner time, then they parted ways.
Stepping inside his own newlywed room, he saw Yun Qian Meng sitting in front of the desk. In her hands was a book which she carefully read through, and on the desk a few other similar books were scattered. A thick layer of deeds of land and house was placed on top of the book.
Looking at this situation, Chu Fei Yang knew that Jiao Da and Steward Hong had already settled the matter. Seeing Mu Chun was about to notify Yun i Meng who was still busy reading, Chu Fei Yang immediately made a gesture to silence her. In the meantime he waved his hands allowing all the servant girls inside the inner room to leave, and he himself walked quietly on tiptoe as he approached Yun Qian Meng.
“Since when did xiangye learn to sneak in?” Yun Qian Meng’s eyes were still staring at the book in front of her, her slender lily-white hands slowly flipped through a page, slightly opening her rosy red lips, then speaking unhurriedly.
Seeing his small actions being discovered by Yun Qian Meng, Chu Fei Yang’s face seemed to be a bit ashamed, but instead he sat down beside Yun Qian Meng very joyfully, both eyes flickering like the twinkling stars as he stared at the lateral side Yun Qian Meng’s pretty face. The tip of his nose was lingering on the sweet scent on her body, then out of satisfaction he said, “Didn’t expect that in mean time while Meng’er is reading her book, she still pays attention to her husband’s actions, making her husband truly admired her.”
Hearing his words, Yun Qian Meng slightly pursed up her red lips and heaved a sigh. Her heart could not help but sighed, wondering when would Chu Fei Yang learn not to be boastful?”
Yet after seeing her sighed, Chu Fei Yang abruptly had his brows in a knot. In an instant he pulled out the book in her hand, with on hand he gently hooked up her delicate chin, allowing Yun Qian Meng to only look at him, then he gladly said, “If you’re tired, just take a rest. These things you can set them aside as they wouldn’t run away from you, there’s no need to handle them urgently without eating your dinner!”
Seeing Chu Fei Yang’s serious face, Yun Qian Meng knew that he must have interpret it incorrectly, yet she did not bother to correct him about the real reason behind her sigh. In order to avoid him feeling pleased and lose his sense of measure, she tidied up the books that were scattered on the table, keeping all the deeds of land and house inside the wooden box, then she smiled and looked at him, “You must be the one who instructed steward Hong to move those dowry from Yun Xiang Fu!”
Seeing Yun Qian Meng had already known everything about his glorious achievement, Chu Fei Yang immediately exposed a smile on his face. After which he leaned closer to Yun Qian Meng, dubiously breathed out the heat air beside her white ears, in a lowered voice he whispered, “My wife’s dowry , I naturally wouldn’t let other people take advantage of them!”
When the heated air blown across her ears, she immediately blushed. Yun Qian Meng lifted her hand wanting to push Chu Fei Yang away, yet he tightly captured it, immediately squeezing her slightly cold hand inside his outer clothing, sticking it closely onto his warm chest. Looking for a little appreciation from her as he said, “Your husband had done so many things, what will my wife reward me with?”
Yun Qian Meng lifted her eyes, seeing Chu Fei Yang’s smiling eyes having a bit of insipid affection, her heart suddenly jumped, However, judging by the color of the sky outside which went dark just now, she tried hard to shift her gaze away from his handsome face which was a feast for the eyes, then she firmly remarked, “I’ve already prepared the dinner, waiting for xiangye to come back. I don’t know whether xiangye will like it or not?”
Seeing Yun Qian Meng seemed not to be captivated with his charm, Chu Fei Yang persisted on. His one hand climbing up on Yun Qian Meng’s slender waist, slightly exerting his strength, sitting beside him a while ago, now she was being transferred on top of his legs. Feeling satisfied by hugging the person in his arms, he moved his lips closer to her ears and stated in a low voice “The dinner my wife is referring to, do you mean yourself?”
With great difficulty he had endured the whole day. He had also successfully got rid of his grandpa without a hitch, Chu Fei Yang was not in the mood to have dinner. Facing his wife whom he loved so much, he did not want to part with her, even if he was to look at her whole day, he would never get hungry.
And along with the movement when Chu Fei Yang was carrying Yun Qian Meng on his legs, Yun Qian Meng’s both hands approached along with the distance between the two of them, yet she had unexpectedly pulled open the clothes on Chu Fei Yang’s chest, exposing his lean and powerful chest, matching Chu Fei Yang’s charming smile and wicked tone of voice at this moment. He was serious and rare person, it caused Yun Qian Meng’s face to slightly turn red, somewhat rudely helped him fix his clothes properly, in a fierce face she said, “Without having your meal, are you starving and confused? Am I food? Can I be eaten?”
Finished speaking, her both hands were stuck at her waist, her blooming cheeks were fuming with infrequent anger, causing Chu Fei Yang to be even more reluctant to let go of her. That hand which was wrapped around her waist suddenly exerted its force, in an instant he lowered down his head snatching her slightly pouted red lips, using his own tongue he diligently traced it. After which it effectively opened up those tightly closed pearly white teeth, fondling inside that fragrant small mouth, then retreated back before Yun Qian Meng had the chance to bite him.
“It was really sweet and tasty!” In the end, he added a comment, yet it caused Yun Qian Meng to glare at him.
“If you do that again, tonight you shall stay in the study room!” Seeing Chu Fei Yang having the intention to continue on, but Yun Qian Meng was already hungry, then she spoke threatening him.
The handsome face immediately became down, as compared to going to the study room, delaying the time would be the most acceptable option that Chu Fei Yang had. Resigning to his fate, as he nodded his head, after which in order to win the favor he said “These three days I have plenty of time, tomorrow I will bring you along and stroll around all the places in the capital, good or not?”
Having heard what was said, Yun Qian Meng’s eyes beamed, for a very long time of not going out, being trapped inside the prison cell of Ministry of Justice for quite some time, even her body had started to become moldy. Chu Fei Yang’s suggestion aroused Yun Qian Meng’s interest. Her eyes exposed a smiling expression, immediately she pushed Chu Fei Yang aside, instructing Mu Chun and others to set the dinner on the dining table in the side room.
“Hehehe……” During this time, Chu Nan Shan who had been eavesdropping for a long time outside secretly laughed while he covered his mouth that contained a smile beaming from ear to ear.
He knew very well that muddy little fellow Chu Fei Yang would certainly fall head first towards that silly girl Meng’er. Who would have thought that this young fellow would end up become useless like that, even for making love he needed to seek his wife’s permission, what a shameful act! But, this would naturally be a good thing for him, in the future he whave another thing that he could use to mock Chu Fei Yang! Once he won over the favor of Meng’er, it was equivalent to taking control of this loathsome young fellow indirectly, was not it?
The more Chu Nan Shan analyzed, the more he thought that he was making a wise decision.
Moreover he had decided that he would certainly protect Yun Qian Meng tomorrow.
“Jiao Da, lead your master back to his own courtyard, don’t allow him to always do such shameful things!” But during this time, Chu Fei Yang mysteriously appeared as he stood behind Chu Wang, a tall and thin shadow immediately shrouded Chu Wang into the darkness.
Looking at Chu Wang who was currently crouching down in a corner, sticking his ear closely to the wall, Chu Fei Yang’s eyes seemed to have sparks.
“I don’t want to go back, I want to have dinner together with Meng’er, since you are not hungry anyway, grandpa will eat on your behalf!” Before Chu Fei Yang could raise a hand, Chu Wang had quickly jumped into the room, in the blink of an eye, he was now seated on the dining table.
And Yun Qian Meng had already guessed what was going on when Chu Fei Yang went out, thus she had already instructed Mu Chun to add a set of chopsticks and bowl. The two of them just watched Chu Fei Yang as he stood beside the doorway staring angrily at the dining table full of dishes, without further notice they started to eat.
Watching almost half portion of the delicious food on the table being swept inside his own grandpa’s belly, the sense of danger immediately rise up in Chu Fei Yang’s heart. instantly lifting his legs he walked towards the dining table, grasping the chopsticks on the table he quickly snatched the food on the plates…...
The next day, everything had already been prepared as Chu Fei Yang led Yun Qian Meng out of Chu wangfu. As if hiding from Chu Wang’s chase, on their way, the two of them switched to different colors of horse carriage three times, until they arrived at the river side, the expression on Chu Fei Yang’s face slightly relaxed down a bit.
But Yun Qian Meng’s both eyes were fixed onto that refined decorated pleasure boat in front of her eyes.
“The green umber river is a moat. Let’s us take the decorated pleasure boat and travel all around the green umber river for one round, we will able to see all the great sceneries in the capital, it can also help you relax your mind, you will not get tired, or get disturbed by any other people, indeed it is a method with three advantages!” Seeing Yun Qian Meng’s happy expression, Chu Fei Yang supported her as they went up aboard the decorated pleasure boat.
Yet unexpectedly, when the two of them went offshore, another luxurious decorated pleasure boat immediately followed behind them…...
