Prince, kneel down quickly, the lady can't run away

Chapter 187 Spring Fatigue and Autumn Sleepiness

The two of them ate at a moderate pace. After they had warmed up the wine, they remembered to ask, "Where's your brother? I didn't see him today."

"He probably hasn't woken up yet. I should be able to see him when I get back." Xiao Jue was still fishing out the duck intestines. They were very crisp and delicious. Those who resisted at first would eventually get slapped in the face.

"I don't know how they came up with these things." Xiao Jue seemed to be talking to himself unintentionally, and if he asked again, it would seem like he was just asking clichés.

Low-class people are low-class people, but this dog man eats very elegantly

"Isn't he smart?"

There was a chaotic voice outside, calling Xuan Ling to come in

"What are you doing with all the mess outside?"

"Well, Miss Zhao and a man started arguing outside. The man tried to pull Miss Zhao away, and then the eldest master came over and stopped them, and then... then..."

"Hmm? Brother, then?"

"Then the man yelled at Miss Zhao." Fortunately, it was at the corner of the third floor, and most people couldn't get up there.

Brother? Why are you on the third floor? And when did Coco get a private room on the third floor?

Forget it, I'd better go out and see what's going on.

He wiped his mouth and stood up, with Xiao Jue following behind him.

When I got to the corner, I heard the man say, "I was wondering why you didn't like me. It turns out you have a gigolo. Why did you come out to see me? I am the son of the Dali Temple's Shaoqing. You are just a business woman. Don't be ignorant of your own limitations."

Wen Jiu saw a man with ordinary appearance and simple clothes. He didn't expect such words to come out of his mouth.

"I only met you to please my elders, and I paid you what you deserved. Why do you want to turn against me?" Zhao Keke said sharply.

Wen Xi, who was standing by the side, folded his arms and leaned against the door, looking like a rich and frivolous young man.

No wonder that person called him a pretty boy. His brother is indeed no worse than Fu Yichen and Xiao Jue.

Seeing Wen Jiu coming over, he made a shushing sound with his hand to signal her to let Zhao Keke solve it herself.

"You just want to see that I have money. Do you want to regret it? But I'll have to see if I agree. Get as far away from me as possible." Zhao Keke kicked him

"You are disgraceful. You are a hypocritical woman. I wonder who in the capital would dare to marry you. You are not only looking at others but also keeping a gigolo. I think you are a slut."

Wen Xi was about to step forward but was stopped by Zhao Keke

A slap, and silence in an instant

Zhao Keke's hands were all red from the beating. Wen Xi kicked the man in the vitals and he screamed in pain, "Just wait, I'm going to tell my dad and you'll be in trouble."

"You are so old and you still want to tell your parents. Have you been weaned? Go home and feed yourself. I forgot to tell you that I have plenty of money. If I don't marry, I will support a dozen gigolos. It's a pity that you are too ugly. Even my bodyguards can't compare to you. Go away and don't dirty my eyes."

"Let's go." Wen Jiu signaled Xiao Jue to leave.

"Don't you want to ask?"

"What are you asking? Didn't you see that the problem has been solved? As long as there is no fight, the girl will not suffer any loss. Her uncle is the Dali Temple Minister, the boss of the man's father. She can also go back and file a complaint." Wen Jiu said with a smile

The people downstairs also returned to their seats and started eating, as if nothing had happened.

"Princess, you said you would give me a gift. Now that we're married, you wouldn't forget it, would you?"

Hey, don't tell me, she really forgot it completely

"Then let's go to the Treasure Pavilion. The things there are exquisite and worthy of you." So after dinner, I took him to the Treasure Pavilion and chose a jade pendant.

He was obviously happy.

He motioned for Wenjiu to hang it around his waist, but Wenjiu ignored him, threw it to him, said something hypocritical, and left.

Xiao Jue took the jade pendant and his eyes were as bright as fireworks, and he quickly followed.

"You are so blatantly going shopping with me, aren't you afraid of that person in the palace?"

"It's too late for him to regret. This is the consequence of his attempt to merge the two companies at once." Some things should be done in advance.

Wenjiu was stunned for a moment when he saw Qingfeng and the other two. He did not ask why they were not there just now. He thought they must have been busy with other things, so he got on the carriage. Spring fatigue and autumn sleepiness are not a joke. Wenjiu tried her best to adjust her work and rest schedule. She could not marry in and be lazy every day and ruin the reputation of the General's Mansion...

She opened the curtain and looked outside. People were bustling about, and it was another busy day. She sighed softly, quietly, but was still heard.

"Is something wrong?"

"Nothing, just spring fatigue"

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Xiao Jue didn't ask any more questions. He gave her the greatest respect and would definitely wait until the day when she said it herself.

The carriage swayed to the destination. When the people from Prince Xiao's mansion saw them coming back, they hurried forward and said, "Prince, Princess, you are back. The prince is waiting for you in the study."

"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Qinglong stepped forward and asked

"I don't know either. The Crown Prince and His Majesty's Consort should go with me!" The maid bowed and asked respectfully.

"Go take a look?" Xiao Jue asked

Wen Jiu nodded, "I have a bad feeling..."

"It's okay." Xiao Jue also began to wonder in his heart, is there any big thing that he doesn't know?

"Prince, Princess, please come in." The maid knocked on the door, pushed it open, and the two of them stepped in.

"What do you want us to do?" Xiao Jue sat down.

"Father"

"I'm back. I came to the palace today to thank the emperor for his grace. You guys were not at home when I came back."

"We ate outside. What happened? Why are you looking for us so anxiously?" Wen Jiu asked

"There really is something going on. I went to the palace today. The Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Princess were also there. I wanted to avoid suspicion, but the Emperor told me not to."

"The Emperor said that he wanted the new number one scholar to do more work. The Crown Prince suggested that the Emperor send the new consort, your cousin Su Jinyu from the General's Mansion, to Ganzhou County, where the river is flooding, to be the county magistrate."

"Why Ganzhou County? Why haven't you mentioned it?" Wen Jiu had never heard of this name.

"You are still young and have never heard of it. This Ganzhou County was once one of the richest counties. Many officials were sent here to serve as officials because of the emperor's grace. Although it was not as famous as the capital, it was definitely a very famous county at that time." Prince Xiao seemed to be reminiscing.

"Father has been there? Then why is it like this now? Why doesn't the court care about it?"

"I have been there before and witnessed the prosperity there, so I can't help but sigh. I went there with your mother at that time. She also liked the fish there, which was plump and tender."

Xiao Jue paused while scraping the tea foam, then pretended not to care and continued drinking.

"The local officials also put pressure on the court. The court only learned about the disaster after the Dali Temple Shaoqing, who was on a business trip, brought back a petition signed by tens of thousands of victims in blood. The Dali Temple Shaoqing was also pleading for the people." Prince Xiao stroked his rare beard.

What a coincidence? He beat his son two days ago, and now he is pleading for the people in the past two days. Is the timing so perfect?

Xiao Jue and Wen Jiu looked at each other and had the answer in their hearts.

The river is flooding? The fish are plump and tender, that is...

"Is it in the Jiangnan area?" Wen Jiu asked

"How do you know? I called you back today so that you can quickly think of a solution and see if there is a compromise in the General's Mansion to relocate to a more prosperous place."

"The emperor should have asked you what you thought of the comparison," Xiao Jue said.

"How do you know? The emperor asked, and I just answered that I don't understand the matter and can't give any advice." Prince Xiao was surprised at Xiao Jue's cleverness.

Xiao Jue felt uncomfortable when he saw his surprised expression. "Then don't you think about it? The emperor has asked you, wouldn't he want you to come back and tell us? Since he asked you to stay there, he has already thought of how to use you as a shield when you come back. Today, the result of the emperor's discussion with you and the princes will be announced..."

"Oh, maybe I can even tell you who you recommend."
