Seeing Qing Er and others who looked like dead dogs being dragged away, Xu Zizhen felt indescribably happy.
Originally, if he and Duan Yan came out of the house okay, a few people would have immediately woken up and said that they had misunderstood. Duan Chen could not get angry when their identities were unknown. After all, he was the prince of Dali and could not control the Song Dynasty.
If the people were killed, Xu Zizhen could not lynch them.
But it's different now. It's easy to get them to report their origins just by using some clever tactics. It's a matter of honor for Princess Dali. If her limbs are broken and sent to their yamen, their superiors will never dare to tell them.
What, not to mention that Xu Zizhen knew that the pacifier Pan Lian was Zhao Gou's person. As for the so-called five hundred taels of silver, it was just to make their charges clearer.
"Your Majesty, please come inside." Xu Zizhen smiled and invited Duan Chen into the room. A group of guards consciously guarded the surroundings outside the room. After entering the room and taking a seat, Xu Zizhen suddenly smiled and bowed deeply to Duan Chen.
Duan Chen was startled and stood up in a hurry: "Brother Xu, what did you say..."
Xu Zizhen said sternly: "Last year in Suzhou, thanks to your help, Brother Duan, I was able to save Li'er. I, Xu Zizhen, will always remember this love in my heart."
Duan Chen hurriedly helped him up: "It's just a little effort. If Brother Xu continues to be so polite to my younger brother, he will be looking down on me."
Xu Zizhen had to stand up straight and said with a smile: "How dare I? You are the prince of Dali. Good guy, you brothers and sisters have been hiding this from me for a whole year."
Duan Chen smiled sheepishly, but before he could say anything, Xu Zizhen continued: "It's okay, I know you have no choice, so let's get back to business, let's talk about what happened today." After saying that, he turned to Duan.
Yan, "Yan'er, why are you not being with your brother and running around alone? Look, if they hadn't happened to be looking for me today, your life would have been over."
Duan Yan stuck out his tongue and said angrily: "It's not my brother. We came to Yingtian Mansion a few days ago just to find you, but my brother said that you have many foreign enemies now. If we showed up early,
I'm afraid of being disadvantageous to you because of my identity, I don't understand why I would come to talk to you, why would someone do something harmful to you?"
Duan Yan's Dali accent was crisp and waxy, which was very nice, but he spoke very fast, like a barrage of cannons. But Xu Zizhen understood clearly. It turned out that their brother and sister had long known about his stay in Yingtian Mansion, so they
Come find yourself.
Just when he thought of this, Xu Zizhen suddenly remembered and asked: "So you said that the Dali envoys who came to visit Yingtian College in the past two days are you?"
Duan Yan said: "Hehe, isn't it us? Brother Zhen, have you prepared anything good for us to see?"
Duan Chen patted her head gently and cursed with a smile: "This time, all the countries except us have no good intentions. Don't you know your brother Zhen's temper? It's not bad if you don't prepare a big stick. You
What else do you want to see?”
Xu Zizhen laughed loudly: "Brother Duan, who knows me well, but this time you guessed wrong. Firstly, I didn't prepare a stick. There are indeed good things to see. Secondly...hehe, besides your Dali, how many other countries
Not all of them are here to cause trouble."
Duan Yan suddenly exclaimed: "Oops, I forgot about that sister." Before she could finish her words, she jumped up, rushed into the back room and pulled out a beautiful woman wearing white clothes with an unbelievably noble and elegant temperament.
Duan Chen couldn't help but be startled. He didn't expect that there was someone in Xu Zizhen's room, and she was a woman.
Duan Yan stuck out his tongue and said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, sister, I forgot about you."
Zhuo Ya smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, you are talking, it is not appropriate for me to come out and disturb you."
Xu Zizhen pulled Zhuo Ya to his side and introduced Duan Chen with a smile. Duan Chen suddenly stood there with his mouth wide open. Good guy, what has Xu Zizhen been doing this year? I just heard that he became the Prince Consort of Xixia not long ago.
Why is there a Tibetan princess hiding in the house now?
Duan Chen couldn't help but take another look at Xu Zizhen. Could this guy be destined to be rich and wealthy? How could he be so destined to the princess? And even though it was a show outside the door just now, there seemed to be something wrong with the way his sister looked at him, so she said no
He definitely seems to be a sign of becoming his brother-in-law.
Just then, I heard a timid call from outside the door: "Brother Xu, are you in the back room?"
Xu Zizhen laughed loudly. He recognized that it was Mo Li'er's voice. He quickly got up and opened the door. When he came to the door, he smiled and said, "Li'er, look who's coming?"
Mo Li'er came to the door and looked in the direction he pointed, and was immediately overjoyed: "Mr. Duan? Yan'er?"
Duan Chen stood up with a smile and returned the salute, while Duan Yan rushed over and hugged her, sweetly shouting: "Sister Li'er, I miss you so much!"
Xu Zizhen deliberately said with a straight face: "Sister Li'er, you call me sister-in-law!"
"Ah?" Duan Yan was stunned for a moment, but then he said angrily, "When did you get married? Why didn't you invite me to a wedding banquet? I don't care, I insist on calling you sister, sister!"
Xu Zizhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I would like to invite you to a wedding banquet, but I have to find you."
But Mo Li'er heard something else in the words, she leaned into Duan Yan's ear and chuckled: "Yan'er, you have a little thought."
"Ah! I...I didn't..." Duan Yan's little face suddenly turned red, and she spilled the beans without checking. Mo Li'er saw it. This was really embarrassing, and she plunged into Mo Li'er.
He was still alive in his arms and refused to show his face again.
Duan Chen saw this and sighed inwardly: "It's over, my sister is destined to be named Xu."
Xu Zizhen was also greatly embarrassed. He changed the topic with his eyes and said, "Brother Duan, do you know that I have my own caravan now?"
Duan Chen retracted his thoughts and smiled: "How could you not know? I also said that I would make a special trip to visit Brother Xu after this trip to the academy."
"Don't make a special trip. It's better to catch up on another day." Xu Zizhen asked Mo Li'er to prepare the food and drinks first, and then said to Duan Chen, "We haven't seen each other for a year. We won't come back until we get drunk today. Let's talk about our exclusive sales.
Agency.”
"Exclusive sales agency rights?" Duan Chen was stunned by the new term in Xu Zizhen's mouth, but he reacted quickly and immediately understood what it meant, "Haha, okay, let's chat while drinking."
Not long after arriving at the front hall, Li Meng Daye also came back. As expected, they brought back five hundred taels of silver, and Pan Lian also charged Qing San and others with ruining their reputations and framed scholars, and immediately handed them over to Yingtian Mansion.
The yamen went down to the prison.
Duan Chen had an eye-opener today. Somehow Xu Zizhen had managed to get along this year. Not only did he marry Mo Lier, but he also had a well-educated and charming maid Kou Qiaoyi in his family. Moreover, he also heard that he was going to marry her in the next few days.
Wen Xian, the only daughter of the former Suzhou magistrate, married into the family, and the daughter of the current King Kaiping was also married on the same day. She was also a princess!
"Huh? Is there a guest at home?"
At this moment, Gillian and Su San came in from the door holding hands. Xu Zizhen waved them over and introduced them in a low voice in Duan Chen's ear.
Duan Chen's mouth couldn't close at all, and his eyes were straight and dull.
Wanyanjiao? The little princess of the Kingdom of Jin?
He is now 100% sure that Xu Zizhen is definitely destined to be rich and noble!
