MTL - After the Big Guy Wears the Abusive Text-Chapter 96 see her
About Ye Youqing, Pei Ning has heard a little bit, and now she doesn't ask any more.
"When will you leave?" Pei Ning asked.
"Tomorrow." Ye Youqing replied, "Someone will come to pick up the silver tael."
Ye Youqing smiled at her, then watched Pei Ning walk out of the porch, and walked along the stone road by the river, and soon disappeared behind the rouge-colored plum blossoms.
Jiangning Mansion is worthy of being one of the most prosperous areas in the south. There are small bridges, flowing water and young men and women admiring the scenery. The old man by the bridge is selling a basket of garlands made of plum blossoms. fragrance.
Ye Youqing left the riverside, walked back to the downtown, and entered a high-rise inn.
She walked up the steps, walked into an open door, stretched out her hands, took the cloak from her shoulders, and hung it on the wall.
"How is it?" Shili asked in a low voice.
Although it has been two years, there has been no change in ten miles. If I must say, it is a little tanned. With her high and low nose and browbones, she seems to be more energetic.
"Everything went well." Ye Youqing said and walked to the stove. Since then, she has always been a little afraid of the cold, so as long as it is winter, she has to order a hand stove with her.
Shili nodded and snorted at the door: "The people from the palace are really difficult to deal with. They follow behind the buttocks openly and secretly, and they can't get rid of them."
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here." Ye Youqing shrugged and turned to open the door.
Outside the door was a man in a strong suit, he saw Ye Youqing, he looked a little anxious, and cupped his hands: "Miss Chen, Bianjing is in a hurry, look at you walking around all the way around, swimming around. It doesn't matter if you play with mountains and rivers, why don't you set off sooner?"
Looking at the heart, it is half a pleading, half a threat.
"Don't be in a hurry." Ye Youqing smiled warmly, she held the stove, and with those eyes, she looked a bit weak, "You see, my body Weak, I can't bear to hurry, if it weren't for you being so anxious, I would still be recovering from illness."
Ye Youqing guessed what he was thinking, but smiled and said nothing.
The man let out a long sigh, bent down as if resigned, bowed deeply, and said earnestly: "It's a little girl begging, we've been looking for a girl for more than a month, and we won't be looking for her again. Take it back and we will all be punished."
"Please leave soon, girl." He bent down again.
Ye Youqing looked at him for a while, and then said casually: "Forget it, it's not easy to see you, and besides, Bianjing is about to rejuvenate, so let's start the journey."
The man was overjoyed when he heard the words, clutched his chest and said, "Thank you girl, I will prepare the carriage and horses today, and come to pick you up tomorrow morning!"
After he finished speaking, he bowed his head and stepped back in relief, and he disappeared after a while.
Ye Youqing looked at him lightly, turned and closed the door.
Ye Youqing nodded and looked satisfied: "Prove that the emperor is determined this time and needs that batch of fine iron, then it will be easy."
"But we are going to the capital so alone, aren't you afraid of his tricks?" Shili was a little worried.
"The side joints are losing ground now, unless the old man has lost his mind." Ye Youqing smiled, "Not to mention that I want to play for the royal family now."
The late winter in Bianjing is not like the recovery of everything in the south, but there is also some atmosphere of welcoming spring. Although the buds have not yet emerged, there are more pedestrians on the street.
The river of blood in the frontier seems to have nothing to do with the lively Bianjing.
Especially Yujie, this day was very lively because of the rest and the sunshine. The sun was shining for a long time, and there was even some heat in the ground.
In the crowd, a man and a woman were walking side by side, the woman was wearing a carmine red dress with white fluff on the placket and sleeves, adding a bit of calm to the hot red.
The men passing by on the road glanced at them from time to time, and Zhou Hong next to her glared back one by one.
Ci Ke, as if he didn't see it, strode forward, but Zhou Hong bought some gadgets from time to time, and held it in front of Ci Ke to make her happy.
Ci Ke glanced at him, nodded, and forced a smile.
The gongs and drums outside Jinling Zhai said that they had invited the most beautiful dancer in Beijing today.
Today's Jinlingzhai is also much larger than in previous years. Due to the annexation of the surrounding shops, a table has been set up in the lobby. Almost every day there are entertainers playing and singing, and there are circles under the table. Tables and chairs, surrounded by a circle of railings above the head, inside the railing is the elegant room, which can not only isolate the outside world, but also look at the entire lobby.
Zhou Hong asked people to reserve a good seat, just under the table, the dishes have been prepared, chicken, duck and fish are readily available, and the fragrance is tangy.
The old man playing the xun on the stage finished the song, and was helped down, and then got on a few women holding the pipa again, playing around the stage, the ethereal music trickling around the beam.
"Ci Ke, try this, it's a new dish here." Zhou Hong put a plate in front of her.
"Hey, isn't this Zhou Shaoqing!" A loud voice sounded from the side, a man got up and sat beside Zhou Hong, brought the wine glass in his hand to him, smiled and said, "Why today Are you willing to bring Miss Cike out?"
"Brother Du." Zhou Hong was called coldly, took the wine glass with a smile, and drank it after clinking the glasses.
"I've seen Miss Zhou." The man smiled at Ci Ke, in exchange for Ci Ke's faint nod, he swallowed and looked away.
"Brother, it's a little stuffy in the room, I'll go get some air." Ci Ke got up and left quickly.
"Miss Zhou, pay attention to crowding!" The man turned to her back.
But even so, there are not a few people who are rushing to propose marriage, and it is not because she has an unparalleled beauty, the man surnamed Du murmured in his heart, but did not show it on his face, but talked to Zhou. Hong talked about heaven.
"Did Zhou Shaoqing hear that a businesswoman came to the capital yesterday, but she was specially invited by the sage." The man lowered his voice.
"Doing business?" Zhou Hong was a little surprised. Although the state of Qi was prosperous in business, except for the merchants of the official and merchant family, although other merchants had wealth, they were not respected, not to mention is in Beijing.
"What do you want a businessman to do?" Zhou Hong asked.
"I also listened to my colleagues, and I don't allow any rumors. I only know that the woman is in the iron business. There are her workshops in the north and Jiangnan West Road. Iron is much harder than those in the official camp today."
"Now the war has been chaotic for two years, and there is a shortage of fine iron that can be used as weapons. Her hand is better than the official camp. It is said that the long knife she makes cuts iron like mud. She came to the capital, she should be for this." The man whispered.
Zhou Hong's hands trembled a little after hearing this: "Then do you know the origin of that woman?"
"The woman's surname is Chen, and her ancestors are on Jiangnan West Road. The family was engaged in business from the beginning, but then something happened in the family, her parents died, and she was the only one left. Started this business, and at a young age, he is really a hero in women's middle school by virtue of this way." The man said, his eyes became more and more envious.
The last name is Chen. Zhou Hong sighed indifferently.
"Isn't Qi not allowed to mine and smelt iron without permission? Why did you invite her to the capital since she was caught and not punished?" Zhou Hong lost interest and asked slack.
"How do I know this, anyway, according to others, it is because the Holy One needs the iron from her men."
The man was just halfway through speaking when he heard a noise at the door, and even the dancing **** the stage stopped moving and turned his head to look at the noisy place.
The crowd stood up and watched, ramming a table in the corner and slanting, the woman in the light blue shirt beside the table was almost caught in the crack of the wall by the table, but the tall masked woman stretched out her hand to break the round table , rescued her.
"Are you okay?" Shili asked with a frown.
Ye Youqing shook his head, calmly wiped off the tea sprinkled on the table, and looked at the crowd from the corner of his eye.
The one surrounded by several men in the center was a girl, dressed in bright red, which made her eyebrows beautiful, she was staring coldly at the men in front of her, standing upright.
Ye Youqing forcibly controlled the trembling of her palms, so she did not remove the dishes on the chopsticks.
"Miss Zhou, you almost became a widow, and you dress so gorgeously, how can there be such a shameless woman in this world!" The tablecloth on the side was torn off, and the dishes and soup splashed all over the floor.
"Why don't I understand what you said?" Ci Ke raised his eyes to look at him, and his eyes were full of contempt instead of fear.
She looked at the man even more violently with such eyes, she raised her hand towards Cike and threw a fist, seeing that the fist was about to fall on Cike, Ye Youqing squinted, grabbed it The fat pig's elbow in front of him flicked his left wrist, and the elbow flew towards the man with the soup.
With a bang, he hit him on the back of the neck, with such a force that his footsteps were sluggish, and he only stood firm by holding on to the shoulders of the person beside him. into the air.
The man touched the oil remaining on the back of his head, and he couldn't help but lose his temper. He turned his head and said, "Who doesn't have eyes!"
The guests looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
"What are you doing!" Suddenly heard a roar, Zhou Hong pushed aside the crowd and squeezed to Ci Ke's side, guarding her firmly behind him, glaring at the man in front of him.
"Yo, isn't this Zhou Shaoqing? A sixth-rank official who is dispensable, dare to shout with me?" The man was drunk and annoyed, bypassing Zhou Hong and pointing at Cike, "You poisonous girl, my eldest brother broke his leg just a few days after begging you for marriage, and now he is still lying on the couch and can't get up. Others say that you are a lonely star, he still doesn't believe it, you deserve to be an old girl all your life. !"
"Is there any truth in what I said? Who doesn't know that your sister is a demon, you can hurt my eldest brother, if my eldest brother can't keep this leg, I will definitely make this demon girl double Broken legs!"
A little more noisy.
It's a bewitching charm, the man who is close to me."
The man's hand that stretched out vigorously stopped in mid-air.
"Your brother didn't listen to the advice that day, but wanted to touch me with his hand, no, he broke his leg on the way back?" The woman smiled, but her eyes were full of coldness, with The flirtatious red lips looked at it, and for a while it was really like a bewitching charm.
The man's lips moved, and she stared at his back and chilled.
"You, you!" The man was a little scared, but he couldn't hold back his anger, grabbed the chair with his backhand, turned around and smashed it on Zhou Hong's head.
"Brother." Cike's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stepped forward to block, but saw another huge leg of lamb flying from behind, with a strong wind blowing the man's face, this time it didn't hit Instead, it landed on his own feet.
The man wailed, bent over and held his feet and jumped again and again, Cike's eyes flashed, and he looked in the direction of the leg of lamb.
Before Ye Youqing could get up, he listened to footsteps for a while. Several men in black rushed into the room and vigorously pulled the men who were fighting with Zhou Hong away, and pressed them in one after another. Oil all over the place.
"Good day, who is making trouble here!" A young man screamed, and then a man in brocade walked in, only to see him with a bright body and extraordinary bearing, with his back to Ye Youqing Standing beside Ci Ke, the surroundings immediately fell silent.
"Song, Song Yanei..." The man who took the lead in making trouble just now didn't dare to speak, and stood by.
"Bullying a girl in broad daylight, what a formality! Do you want to be taken by me to see an official!" Although the man was young, his words were majestic and loud, especially the man surnamed Xiao, who immediately became nervous He tightened his body, woke up from alcohol, and didn't dare to lift his head.
"Get out of here." The man glanced at Cike and said impatiently.
After a while, the troublemakers all ran away.
The junior second in the store has long been accustomed to this kind of scene. He came to clean up with a broom and rag.
Seeing Ci Ke's eyes were diverted, Ye Youqing sat up and sat down slowly, frowning at the two people in the distance.
"Miss Zhou, are you alright?" The man looked down with concern, and then handed Ci Ke a clean handkerchief, "It's noisy downstairs, I left Accord and Zhou Shaoqing on top, let's go up together. "
Zhou Hong has martial arts skills, so he didn't suffer much, but his clothes were a little messy. He exhaled and nodded in response.
"Let's go then." The man said gently, reaching out and holding a hand of Cike.
Ci Ke not only did not hide, but also took the handkerchief in his hand and said thank you softly.
The teacup in Ye Youqing's hand in the distance was suddenly full of cracks.
