Yue Qingjue covered his nose and frowned." The others are the same. Their faces are all destroyed. It seems that someone doesn't want you to find out.”
Beigong Zhe's face darkened. These people were all here for Xi 'er. He could not think of any enemies that Xi' er had. Moreover, the death warriors he sent could not be compared to his thirty elite guards. It was obvious that the purpose of this time was not to assassinate.
Test? Warning?
"Hurrying through the night!" Beigong Zhe said sternly as he carried An Wenxi into the carriage.
An Wenxi leaned against the beauty's back again, thinking about this matter and the woman in black from a few days ago. She felt that these two things were vaguely related.
Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier as she slowly fell into a deep sleep. She felt a pair of strong arms pulling her back into her arms. The cool fragrance made her feel particularly at ease. She did not expect that she would still rely on this embrace subconsciously.
"You're awake?"
An Wenxi opened her sleepy eyes and looked up. She sat up in his arms and heard a clamor outside the car.
"When we reach Xunzhou, do you want to get out of the car and eat something?”Beigong Zhe's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot. He looked a little tired. Could it be that he had not slept the entire night?
An Wenxi glanced at him and nodded.
They were eating in the largest tavern in Xunzhou. Not only were the dishes delicious, but the service was also good. On the round table in the hall, a young woman was playing the pipa and singing a little song.
The green-robed woman's almond-shaped eyes were filled with anger, her nose was like a hanging gallbladder, her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her singing was like an oriole, attracting the attention of everyone.
"This little girl looks pretty good, even more handsome than that courtesan.”
"Young Master Li has taken a fancy to it?"
"Young Master Li, why don't you bring her home to be your ninth concubine?”
The girl was so frightened that her fingers trembled. The sound of the pipa was particularly abrupt. An Wenxi looked down the window and saw a few foppish sons pulling the woman who was singing.
"Young Master Li, let go of my daughter." The green-clothed woman begged.
Young Master Li was the Di son of the Xunzhou Prefecture's magistrate. He was the most famous playboy in this area. He liked to snatch women by force. He had raped countless women over the years.
Young Master Li stepped forward and touched the face of the woman in green. He praised,""So slippery. It's a pity that you're singing here every day. Why don't you go home with this young master and enjoy yourself?”
"No, Young Master Li, let go of me.”The woman in green hurriedly dodged Young Master Li's wolf claws.
"Young Master Li, don't come over. If you take another step forward, I'll destroy this face!”The woman in green pulled out the hairpin on her head and pressed it against her cheek.
Seeing this scene, Beigong Zhe's heart suddenly froze. He thought of An Wenxi's bloody face that day and seemed to have thought of something. He held her little hand tightly.
"Sou!" A peanut landed on the woman's wrist, and the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground.
"Ah!" Young Master Li covered his bleeding right hand and wailed," Which bastard dares to plot against me…"
Before he could finish his sentence, two more peanuts fell on his head, causing him to grimace in pain. When his gaze met Beigong Zhe's frosty expression, he immediately shut his mouth.
After a while, he pointed at Beigong Zhe and said,"Just you wait!"”Then, he rushed out of the tavern angrily.
"Xi 'er, eat this. The meat is tender.”Beigong Zhe prepared dishes for An Wenxi.
"I didn't expect you to be a hero saving a damsel in distress. Could it be that you've taken a fancy to that girl?”
"Shut your mouth. If you don't eat, get lost!”Beigong Zhe's cold eyes were exceptionally terrifying.
Yue Qingjue pursed his lips and looked at the door,""The lady is looking for you."
"I thank you for saving my life.”A soft voice sounded.
Beigong Zhe hurriedly glanced at An Wenxi, who was eating, and found that she was trying her best to pick up a small meatball. The stubbornness in her eyes made him laugh.
"Silly, don't you know how to use a spoon?”Beigong Zhe helplessly scooped it up and brought it to her lips.
" Cough cough…" Yue Qingjue couldn't bear to listen to it anymore. That gentleness was so sweet that water could be squeezed out. It was really mushy!
Beigong Zhe swept his gaze across Yue Qingjue's furrowed brows and his gaze landed on the green-clothed woman who was being ignored. He said indifferently,""Get up."
"Thank you for what you did just now, Young Master." The green-robed woman shyly glanced at Beigong Zhe. This was the first time she had seen such a handsome man. Those deep eyes of his made people sink in, and her face instantly turned red.
An Wenxi glanced at the woman in green and frowned slightly. This was another scene of a hero saving a damsel in distress.
"It's nothing. You can leave." Beigong Zhe said calmly.”
The green-clothed woman hurriedly knelt down and said," I have no way to repay Young Master's great kindness. If Young Master doesn't mind, I am willing to be a slave or a maid. I will do anything to repay Young Master."”
Beigong Zhe frowned and saw the mocking smile on An Wenxi's face. He said coldly,""My wife doesn't like you.”
The woman in green was stunned. She raised her head and glanced at An Wenxi who was beside Beigong Zhe. She was dressed in red and had no makeup on, but she was beautiful. She was indeed a beauty that could topple cities. She was a perfect match for this young master.
An Wenxi put down her chopsticks, took the handkerchief from Huan Liang's hand, and wiped the corner of her mouth. She quietly looked out the window.
"Xi 'er, you've only eaten so little. Why aren't you eating?”
"I'll wait for you to take in a concubine so that we can go on our way.”
A smile flashed across Beigong Zhe's eyes." Jealous?”
An Wenxi slowly broke free from his grip. She looked at the woman in green on the ground with a smile in her eyes and got up from the table.
Jealous? The corners of her mouth curled into a sneer.
Beigong Zhe had a faint smile on his face as he got up and chased after An Wenxi.
" Young Master…" The green-clothed woman spoke anxiously, her face flushed red." Madam said…"
Beigong Zhe's expression changed when he heard this. His entire body emitted waves of coldness. He coldly glanced at the woman on the ground and hurriedly chased after her.
"Miss, that young master saved you just now. He didn't mean anything else, and he doesn't need you to repay him. Hurry up and go home.”Yue Qingjue said tactfully.
The woman in green was extremely embarrassed. She lowered her head and bit her lower lip as she walked out with her pipa.
Beigong Zhe stepped forward and held her hand. As soon as they left the restaurant, a middle-aged man in official robes and his subordinates came up to them.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Empress, long live the Empress.”
Beigong Zhe frowned deeply. He had not intended to alarm everyone, but this Xunzhou Prefecture's magistrate had exposed his identity.
"Rise." This voice was unusually cold.
Li Weiyuan was shocked and immediately kowtowed."Emperor, this lowly official's discipline was not strict. My son offended the emperor, please punish him.”If it wasn't for that little bastard who came back to tell him, he wouldn't have known that the Emperor had arrived in Xunzhou. This time, he must perform well.
"Get up first."
Li Weiyuan immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
"This lowly official didn't know that the emperor had come and didn't welcome you, so why don't you come to this lowly official's residence to rest.”Li Weiyuan bent down and carefully observed his expression.
An Wenxi frowned slightly when she saw his servile manner. She had heard of the Xunzhou Prefecture Magistrate before. She heard that he was very good at being an official and was best at flattering his superiors. After seeing him today, it was indeed true.
"Alright, Minister Li, lead the way.”
Magistrate Li's mansion was located in the most prosperous area of Xunzhou. The mansion was surrounded by mountains and rivers, small bridges and flowing water, green pines and jade, which had a Jiangnan flavor.
"Miss, your kite is flying so high!”
Not far away, a woman in pink was holding a kite string. Her face was filled with a bright smile as she happily ran over. Behind her was a little servant girl wearing a light green ponytail.
"Not good, the kite is going to fall." As the woman in pink cried out, the kite in the sky fell straight in front of Beigong Zhe.
The corners of An Wenxi's lips curled up slightly. There were actually people flying kites in this season…
Magistrate Li saw who it was and frowned unhappily."Shiqi, why are you here? Can you bear the consequences of offending a noble?”
"Father, Shiqi didn't mean it.”The woman in pink hurriedly sized up Beigong Zhe and An Wenxi and immediately lowered her head.
Beigong Zhe didn't look at the woman in pink. His lips carried a hint of displeasure as he coldly glanced at Magistrate Li.
Qing Xuan picked up the kite on the ground and handed it to the woman in pink." Miss, your kite."”
The girl in pink raised her head in panic and saw Qing Xuan slightly stunned. She quickly hid the disappointment in her eyes and said gently,""Thank you, Young Master."
How could Magistrate Li not see Beigong Zhe's expression? With a livid face, he said to the woman in pink,""Hurry up and go back. Don't block the noble's way.”
"Yes, Father." The woman in pink bit her lower lip and gripped the kite tightly.
"Emperor, please don't take offense. These are this lowly official's two daughters and usually act rashly.”Magistrate Li looked at Beigong Zhe's tightly pursed lips and his palms were covered in sweat.
"Emperor, this way please."
Magistrate Li carefully led everyone into the hall. A light yellow figure ran over from the entrance of the drooping flower gate.
"Father…"
"Ah!" The yellow woman staggered and fell over.
"Miss, be careful next time." An Wenxi helped her up, her voice slightly cold. Compared to the woman in pink just now, this girl's methods were obviously not brilliant.
"Thank…Thank you, Madam.”The pale yellow woman's face turned pale and green. She retracted her hand in embarrassment. She glanced at Beigong Zhe from the corner of her eyes and retreated behind Magistrate Li unwillingly.
"Shiya, go greet the emperor.”Magistrate Li was displeased.
"What? Emperor! This little daughter pays her respects to the emperor." Li Shiya was slightly surprised and shy.。# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:091420183:49AM
