Xie Jingchen knew that he felt guilty about the past events of the previous dynasty. This was a shameful past event that the Xie family did not want to mention and could not argue with the world.
Stopping the woman in red who was about to speak out, Xie Jingchen sternly scolded: "Shiyao, don't be rude."
This woman is Li Shiyao, the daughter of the Prime Minister of the Baiyu Kingdom. She has been on good terms with Prince Xie since she was a child.
Li Shiyao looked dissatisfied at Uncle Xie Liu who had been silent beside her, her heart filled with resentment.
The last time Xie Jingchen returned from the Dahe Empire, she felt that something was wrong with the prince. She was distracted all day long. It took a lot of effort from Xie Liushu to find out that the prince fell in love with a woman from the enemy country and was married to a woman.
Having given birth to a child.
That's why she came here specially this time.
After meeting her, she finally found out that she was the concubine of King Pingning. It was really ridiculous.
And after several contacts, she was able to tell that this woman did not have His Royal Highness in her heart at all, and all she saw in her eyes was her husband.
His Highness the Crown Prince is still so humble in trying to please her, and I don’t know why.
She was really confused.
How could this woman be so captivating to him?
Xie Jingchen on the side did not notice the strange flash in Li Shiyao's eyes, and looked at Chu Nanzhi quietly, feeling suddenly uncomfortable in his heart.
In the past, she only knew that her husband must be a man of extraordinary talent, otherwise he would not be worthy of her.
It was not until later that I found out that he was actually King Pingning, the great enemy of the Baiyu people.
If I had known this, I should have found some way to bring her to Stone Tart City when we were in Duanlong Mountain.
He had heard about Lin Jinxiao before, but only because he was a disciple of the former Crown Prince and Tutor and the leader of the Luyan Hong Kong scholars, but he never thought that he was so capable.
In just a few months, he was repeatedly promoted by the court and became the governor of the state. He also received a special treatment and inherited the title of vassal king that had been abandoned for hundreds of years.
For this person to be respected by the emperor of the Dahe Empire with his broken body must be something special.
Judging from the series of methods he has used to govern Pingning Prefecture these days, there are enough clues that should not be underestimated.
Having such a powerful person stationed in Pingning Prefecture is a serious threat to the Baiyu tribe, so we have to find a way to get rid of him.
The interesting things I heard in the post house this time are a good opportunity.
If the people under his command are allowed to continue to live in the post house, if they learn something they shouldn't know, it will be detrimental to the peace talks. But if Lin Jinxiao is allowed to deal with this interesting matter in the harem that should not be known, maybe
It would make the emperor of the Dahe Empire feel jealous of him, causing the powerful descendants of the Tang family and the forces of the Nandu King to be wary of him and even persecute him.
When the time comes, it will be a matter of course to bring him down.
After thinking about everything in his mind, he made up his mind to stay in Xiao Zhizhi's restaurant this time no matter what.
Gritting his teeth, he decisively took out a thick stack of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Chu Ting, the guide:
"These 30,000 taels of silver are considered as one month's expenses for my Baiyu delegation at Yuanlai Restaurant. I also ask this girl to tell the shopkeeper that I will control the people under my command and not cause trouble to your restaurant."
Chu Ting had never seen so many banknotes before, and her eyes couldn't help but light up. She was so excited that she really wanted to take it directly, but she didn't dare to make any decision. She looked at Chu Nanzhi hesitantly.
Chu Nanzhi always felt that this disciple was missing something in her mind. Just as she was about to stop her, Lin Jinxiao directly pulled her tighter and signaled loudly to Chu Ting: "I won't thank you for being the shopkeeper."
Thanks to Prince Xie’s kindness, no matter how good the restaurant’s business is, it’s rare to meet a God of Wealth like Prince Xie who is willing to spend huge sums of money.”
Chu Ting was startled by Lin Jinxiao's sharp eyes. She quickly took the banknote and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
"Go ahead and clean up the yard."
Xie Jingchen then ordered Uncle Xie Liu and Li Shiyao to take some people with them to take care of the reserved yard.
Lin Jinxiao held on to Chu Nanzhi's hand tightly, staring at Xie Jingchen with his sinister eyes, and suddenly smiled meaningfully:
"Since Prince Xie doesn't like romantic affairs, the restaurant is filled with a gentle and pleasant romantic atmosphere. Many young couples in the city and the ladies raised in boudoirs, as well as literati and refined scholars, are nostalgic for coming here. Xie
The prince must be more cautious and careful, and don’t mess up the situation."
Xie Jingchen heard that he was reminding himself not to have any crooked thoughts about little Zhizhi.
I also blame myself for mentioning the romance just now, and making myself look like an immortal who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world. It's better now, I can't be slapped in the face if I say it.
Li Shiyao didn't know the real boss behind the restaurant, but she knew it well.
I came here because I learned that Xiao Zhizhi opened this restaurant, and I thought I could catch her a few more times here.
Now I am in a dilemma, spending money and still not being liked by little Zhizhi.
It's really hard for a mute to eat yellow lotus.
Chu Nanzhi was previously worried about Xie Jingchen's current situation and had intentions towards him, but what he did today really made people feel conflicted. She began to be very wary of him, and had to be determined to fight with Lin Jinxiao.
Maintain the same stance and treat him as an enemy and an outsider.
"Prince Xie, please help yourself. If you have any errands, please tell the restaurant manager and the boys."
Chu Nanzhi gave instructions calmly and led Lin Jinxiao back to Murong Courtyard.
"Small"
Xie Jingchen was about to call her a pet name when he realized that it was not appropriate. He immediately gave up the idea and watched her disappear from his sight with a lonely look on his face.
Lin Jinxiao felt even more excited and happy at this moment than when he learned that he had been appointed king and governor.
He finally felt his wife's favoritism and love for him from the bottom of his heart.
Moreover, when she and Xie Jingchen deliberately made trouble in the garden today, Concubine Yue Guifei and everyone would definitely feel that Prince Xie led the Baiyu envoys to Yuanlai Restaurant just to be jealous of her.
Concubine Yue Guifei and King Nandu will naturally not arouse too much vigilance. Perhaps they will continue to behave complacently if they are careless. This will give them another chance to take advantage of them.
He was so excited that he forgot about it. Just as he was about to enter the living room, he couldn't help but hugged Chu Nanzhi and kissed her deeply on the forehead.
Chu Nanzhi was startled, stared at him and whispered: "Lin Dalang, are you crazy?"
Just now, I was frightened to death with my straight face, but now I seem to have lost my straight face.
"Put me down quickly."
Chu Nanzhi looked around confusedly and struggled to get out of his arms.
Lin Jinxiao hugged her tighter and said happily: "I'm afraid that I will really go crazy if I don't see you in the next few days, so I have to try my best to hold you tight while you are in front of me and help me in advance."
I will make up for the hugs I owe during the days of separation."
As soon as he finished speaking, he met the solemn eyes of two pairs of old men.
Seeing that it was the second elder who came out, Lin Jinxiao was so frightened that he quickly put Chu Nanzhi down. His expression suddenly turned into a respectful bow: "Teacher."
Chu Nanzhi pinched Lin Jinxiao's arm angrily, not daring to look at the two elders.
"They are all good students taught by an old guy like you, but now they are becoming more and more shameless."
Chang Lao snorted at Nie Huaian, waved his hands and turned away.
Nie Huaian was stunned: Isn't it taught by an old guy like you? Why is it all down to me now?
Besides, this nerd finally understood. As a master, you shouldn't be happy for him. Why are you complaining instead?
