Chapter 017: Women Are Dragons
The escort of the princess's mansion went out late at night to rob money with a knife. If it was not a big deal at other times, no one dared to rush around.
But the current situation is different. There is a Lai Junchen in the court who is not afraid of big trouble. Whenever he hears some noise, he will come up to bite him. If a small case of sesame and mung beans is beaten into a rebellion case, it will be a case of rebellion when it falls into his hands.
Although Lai Junchen is trusted by the emperor, it is still difficult for him to overthrow Princess Taiping. Yan Wei, who caused trouble to Princess Taiping, would probably face a storm-like revenge.
Yan Wei believed that Princess Taiping could not instruct anyone to do stupid things like killing people and robbing money. If she wanted to just hook her fingers, Yan Wei could only serve them with both hands. Today's matter must be privately advocated by Li Niang and Hu San.
After listening to Yan Wei's analysis, Yuchi Ming nodded repeatedly, "Something makes sense! We can still make some favors when we settle a private relationship with Princess Taiping, and climb up to her big tree."
"Since you want to climb high, I'll give you a chance. I'll write a letter to send it to the princess's mansion in person."
Yan Wei immediately wrote a letter saying that he had caught a few thieves who pretended to be the guards of the Princess's Mansion and asked the princess to send someone to check it out. He also brought the fish talismans on the guards to test it.
After the fifth update, Yuchi Ming hurried to the princess's mansion as soon as the fangmen opened. He thought that such an important matter would be responded to soon, but he came back only after the sun was noon.
Yan Wei couldn't wait to ask, "How will the princess answer?"
Yuchi Ming spread his hands and said, "I didn't see the princess, thanks to meeting the prince consort, I entered the door."
"Oh, how will the prince consort reply?"
Yuchi Ming said: "You are confused. What's the matter with the princess's mansion? What's the use of telling him?"
Yan Wei nodded, "Something makes sense! Why did you delay it until now?"
"The prince-consort invited me to the mansion for breakfast, and took me to the study to drink tea and enjoy paintings. You don't know that this prince-consort is also your supporter. I heard that the "Hundred Birds Paying to the Phoenix" was written by you, so I said I would invite you to visit."
"I asked you to deliver the letter!"
"Oh, the princess has been staying in the palace recently, so I handed the letter to the prince consort and asked him to pass it on his behalf. This prince consort is really good, a romantic and kind person. When I came, I also gave me some things, such as Korean ginseng, deer antlers and other precious medicinal materials, and a large piece of fresh venison. Let's roast it and eat it while waiting."
Yan Wei is not as stubborn as Yuchi Ming. He cut off people's wealth and was like killing his parents. He ruined a business in the princess's mansion and was already guilty of Princess Taiping. He had no intention of eating barbecue and planning how to deal with it now.
After it was dark, he didn't see anyone coming from the princess's mansion. Yan Wei had already taken off his clothes and was about to go to bed, and then he heard Li Qiao calling out, "Langjun, the person is here!"
Yan Wei immediately got up from the bed, and when he put on his clothes and arrived in the hall, he saw that Yuchi Ming was also wearing a belt and coming out of the western room. Zhang Buer and Li Qiao were leading seven or eight people over outside the door.
Seeing that Yuchi Ming was about to go out to greet him, Yan Wei reached out and pulled him, "Don't panic, don't panic, we are right!"
While talking, the other party had already entered the door. The man in the head saw the man in the head with starry eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, soft feet and a simple round-necked green robe. Although his figure was a little thin, his chest muscles were very developed...
Wait, Yan Wei's eyes moved upwards, and he saw that there was no Adam's apple on his white neck. The other party was actually a woman, and he was a little surprised and expected.
Yuchi Ming stepped forward and greeted, "Lu Sicheng, I didn't expect that we would meet twice this day!"
Si Cheng is the chief in charge of the affairs of the Princess's Mansion, and is usually assigned by the court by male officials. At present, the heroine is in the country, and it is not surprising that the princess's mansion can appoint female officials. If she can handle such secret matters for Princess Taiping, she must be the princess's confidant.
Lu Huaner and Yuchi Ming exchanged a few words of greetings and looked at Yan Wei, "Are you Yan Wei? Yan Boling's grandson?"
Yan Liben was granted the title of Boling County Male, and the other party was not wrong with this title, but there was less respect.
Yan Wei carefully observed the other person's face, and saw that she was so beautiful and dignified, with a calm expression and could not tell any joy or anger. Yan Wei stepped forward and bowed, "It's Xiaoke! Please sit down with Si Cheng!"
The other man dressed up and behaved like a man. She lifted her down and sat on Hu's bed. Yan Wei and Yuchi Ming sat down with her head, "Your Madam Yan turned her back and forth."
Yan Wei winked and Zhang Buer and Li Qiao immediately retreated outside the yard, "There is no outsider, Si Cheng can say anything."
But Lu Sicheng said, "Didn't you come to me by writing to me? Shouldn't you say it?"
"It's Xiaoke who said that this is the case. Last night, a few thieves came to the Hanshe to rob wealth. What's abominable is that they pretended to be the guards of the Princess's Mansion. Now they have taken care of them all. They wanted to send them to the government but were afraid that they would ruin the princess' reputation. So they asked Brother Yuchi to go and verify. They never thought that Si Cheng would come in person late at night. It was Xiaoke's fault."
Lu Sicheng nodded and said, "You can consider how well you know about the reputation of the Princess' Mansion. Where are those people? Leave them to me!"
Yan Wei ordered outside the yard: "Li Qiao handed over the people who caught last night to the princess's mansion, including the bodies."
Lu Sicheng stood up and bowed and said, "Thank you, I'm going to say goodbye now."
Yan Wei said: "Si Cheng stayed, Xiao Ke still had one more important thing."
Lu Sicheng turned his head and asked, "But there are any losses in the mansion. Mr. Yan just report it. I will send someone to the young master tomorrow."
When did the people in Princess Taiping's mansion be so easy to talk to, I was afraid that Princess Taiping would be angry and turned around and attacked him behind his back.
Yan Wei simply exposes it in person, "That's not the case. On the contrary, Xiaoke has caused a lot of losses recently, and he feels really uneasy!"
Lu Sicheng raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was a little surprised, and snorted coldly, "You can care about the losses of the Princess' Mansion. It seems that you are still a bit respectful." Although her words were not kind, her expression was much warmer than before.
"Xiao Ke really doesn't know it's the property of the Princess' Mansion, otherwise he would never dare to get involved!"
Yuchi Ming also said: "Yes! How dare we commit crimes against the princess? Now we are willing to compensate the princess's mansion."
Lu Sicheng frowned and said, "Li Niang said that this business has been completely destroyed now, so why do you guys compensate me!"
"Xiao Ke has already thought about it..."
Lu Sicheng waved his hand and said, "It's useless to tell me. If you really have sincerity, I will go and give the princess an explanation in person tomorrow."
She said and turned around and left. Yan Wei hurriedly called, "Si Cheng, your stuff has dropped!"
Lu Huan'er stopped and looked at her body, "What's the matter!"
"It's Si Cheng's hairpin!"
"I didn't bring a hairpin..." Lu Huan'er turned her head and stopped immediately. Her mouth opened slightly and her eyes widened. She saw a golden hairpin lying in Yan Wei's hand. A golden hairpin was only two taels at most. It was not that Si Cheng, who was called Princess's Mansion, was dumbfounded.
But the head of the hairpin was inlaid with a gem, the size of a dove egg, red like blood, and crystal clear. Even if the lights in the house were dim, they still shine.
Surprised, greedy, and joyful expressions quickly switched on Lu Huan'er's face, and she no longer had the tranquility she had before. Finally, she looked at Yan Wei with a questioning look, as if asking: "Really, will you give it to me?"
Sure enough, women are evil dragons. They like to collect glowing treasures and pile them into hills in caves. They don’t have to use them and just squat on them and they are very happy.
(I want votes, recommendation votes, and monthly votes, I'm so greedy)
