Chapter 42 Picking up the purse again(2/2)
When Lin'an saw that Xu Qian was forced to retreat, she was immediately intimidated. Without the support of the dog slave, she would not dare to fight Huaiqing alone.
So he pointed the cane at Huaiqing and scolded: "You stinky Huaiqing, come out here."
"Huaiqing, get out of here."
"Shameless Huaiqing, if you have the guts, come over and compete with me."
Princess Huaiqing paid no attention to her and read the book with gusto.
A quarter of an hour later, Caicai took Xu Qianan and left in despair.
Xu Qian turned his head and looked at the stern face, grinding his teeth in frustration, and sighed: "Forget it, Your Highness, the gap is too big."
The IQ gap is too big.
Huaiqing broke the situation with a simple command.
This is good, it will save me from being a bad person when the time comes... His Highness Huaiqing is really my caring little cotton-padded jacket, and he easily solved the problem for me... But it would be too much for you to attack Lin'an.
Alright...Xu Qi'an thought happily.
Not willing to give in, Daizhi stomped her feet, her fiery red skirt swaying.
I sent His Highness Lin'an back to Shaoyin Garden, played backgammon with her and told her stories. It was almost noon before Xu Qi'an said goodbye and left.
He is a foreign minister, and Lin'an is a princess who has not left the palace. They cannot hang out together for too long, let alone have meals together.
"We'll change the Japanese Palace and invite you to play in the palace again," said Diaoyang.
For the same reason, she cannot often summon a foreign minister to the palace, as this will easily lead to rumors.
After leaving the palace gate, Xu Qi'an took back his little mare from the hands of the Yulin Guards, and rode her to the imperial city.
"The conflict between the Queen and Concubine Chen must be irresolvable. Concubine Chen, a woman who cannot defeat the Queen, will definitely encourage Lin'an and use her as a spear against the Queen."
"According to Huaiqing, Lin'an was even stupider when she was a girl than she is now. She would hit wherever Concubine Chen pointed her. If Huaiqing didn't fight back, he would be bullied. Once he fought back, Lin'an would be beaten. And all of this is
Concubine Chen is happy to see it.
"Because Lin'an was favored, she was bullied. Emperor Yuan Jing would not sit idly by and watch... If Lin'an was bullied again, a situation like today would definitely happen again.
"I am the king of the sea, I should not be led by the fish, I have to think of a way, think of a way..."
He kept going back to the watchman's office, but Xu Qi'an couldn't think of a solution. He angrily slapped the little mare's butt, blaming it for being bumpy and bumpy. He was so upset that he couldn't calm down.
After lunch, he took two gongs to the outer city to patrol the streets. Because the distance was too far, he had to ride a horse instead of walking.
Xu Qi'an is most familiar with Nancheng. The Xu family's old residence is in the south, and there is also a health hall here, which is the site of No. 6 Hengyuan.
"Hey, I don't know when my European Emperor's passive skills will be restored. I still have to send money to Master Hengyuan regularly for charity..."
Thinking of this, Xu Qian felt extremely melancholy.
.........
The white marble arena in Nancheng was built in a square next to the river. In just two or three days, the surface of the arena was already riddled with holes: there were footprints from the competition, and there were cracks from knives and axes.
On the ring, there were two warriors fighting, one was a rough man with gnarled muscles, wielding a black iron rod in his hand; the other was a young knight wielding a sword, with pretty good facial features.
The two sides were going back and forth, and the fight was endless.
There were many melon-eating common people gathered around the ring, as well as experts in the world of martial arts.
Speaking of weapons, ordinary Jianghu people will have their weapons confiscated before entering the city, and then the Yamen will issue you a voucher. When you leave the city one day, you can use the voucher to retrieve your weapons.
Since the appearance of the arena, the yamen has loosened its control. Jianghu people who want to compete in martial arts can go to the yamen to apply for the return of their weapons, but they must return them to the yamen the next day, otherwise they will be wanted throughout the city.
Some young heroes and heroines from famous sects can rely on the endorsement of the sect they belong to without surrendering their weapons, but if they commit murder, the sect will bear responsibility.
Xu Qian's eyes scanned the entire audience, but he couldn't find any high-quality heroines.
"Sir Xu, the people watching the show outside are all ordinary people with status and status, and they are all in the surrounding teahouses and restaurants." Tongluo explained.
You know very well, little brother...Xu Qian immediately glanced at the surrounding teahouses and restaurants. There were indeed many spectators at the observation deck on the second floor.
"Let's go, let's find a restaurant...just that one." Xu Qian saw a particularly beautiful heroine.
As soon as he took a step forward, he suddenly felt a hard lump on his foot. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was a purse.
This purse is light green, embroidered with the same color pattern and an orchid, and has a faint fragrance. It seems to be a woman's personal belongings.
"?"
Xu Qi'an was stunned, thinking to himself, wasn't my money-picking buff imprisoned by that bad old man 404?
“Thick and quite filling.”
Xu Qian put it into his arms with a smile, and then found a child next to him looking at him, as if he was annoyed that he didn't see the purse and someone else got there first.
"What are you looking at? Which family's child is this?" Xu Qian raised his hand as if to strike, but the child immediately turned around and ran away in fright.
Xu Qi'an laughed heartily and said sincerely, I also want to buy you candied haws.
After entering the restaurant, he found a table on the second floor and ordered the waiter to serve wine and food. Xu Qian was not interested in the fighting in the ring and squinted at the heroine at the next table.
She was wearing a pink gauze skirt, revealing her white neck and delicate collarbones. The clothes were not thick, highlighting her towering chest size.
Her dressing style is very bold, her makeup is equally exquisite, her flaming red lips, her big almond eyes are radiant, and her facial features are naturally very beautiful, but it is her charming and coquettish body that attracts men the most.
If you are a serious little nightclub queen, then this woman is a serious nightclub queen.
The charming woman noticed Xu Qi'an's naked gaze and was not angry. Instead, she gave her a flirtatious look. The young heroes at the table with her all turned their heads to look at her.
After seeing Xu Qian's uniform as a watchman, he pretended to be fine and turned around.
The waiter brought beef, peanuts, mutton and other dishes to go with the wine, as well as a jar of fine wine.
"Sir, please use your food and drinks with caution."
"Waiter, give me a bowl of 82-year-old Lafite on the other side of the table. I'm treating you to a treat." Xu Qian winked at the charming woman.
The waiter didn't understand and was confused for a moment.
"A jar full of spring."
This is the most expensive wine in the restaurant.
"okay."
After noticing the interaction between Xu Qi'an and the "goddess", the young heroes felt sour in their hearts, but they did not dare to get angry at the watchman, so they took their anger out on the waiter and said angrily:
"Xiao Er, there are five more kilograms of beef."
"Objectively, small shops don't have that much beef anymore."
"Why can others order two catties, but there are so many of us, and we can only order one catty?"
Beef is a luxury product in this era. They are old and seriously ill cattle, and they have to be approved by the government before being slaughtered. In addition, the business has been very good recently, so there is not much stock in the restaurant. Xu Qian ordered two
catty.
Unexpectedly, the waiter rolled his eyes and said with the arrogance typical of Beijing people: "I am an errand in the Yamen. Objectively speaking, you must not have looked in the mirror when you went out this morning."
"..."
The two Tongluo laughed loudly: "These fools."
At this time, Xu Qian saw a woman ascending the stairs, her eyes swept around the hall, and then she walked straight to her side, staring down at him menacingly.
"Give me back my wallet."
