Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 397 The treasure keeper of the Li family

It was a deep and cool autumn night, and at some point, the wind was strong, and the cool wind blowing into the flower hall was mixed with a little water vapor.

Ji Wuyan exchanged glances with Ning Xiuyuan in an exceptionally calm manner, half stood up and turned the aroma burner on the side to this side, and was about to ask a question, when Li Yuqi's expression became more and more ferocious, like a bird flying all over the sky. The trapped beast in the heavy rain hissed at the top of his lungs, "She is obviously married to me, and I have given her supreme honor and unrivaled favor, which woman in this world is not so beautiful?" Envy her! What else is she dissatisfied with? Hmm? Tell me! There is an old folk saying, isn’t it said that when you marry a chicken, you marry a dog? After marrying the prince, shouldn’t you be devoted to the East Palace? Why is she not willing? Tell me, where are the treasures of the Shangguan family?! Huh? Hiccup..."

Under the effect of the incense, the drunk man was completely unaware that he had hidden the deepest secrets for so many years without telling himself.

Those roars from the bottom of my heart are like the darkest abyss of human nature, icy cold to the bone.

Ji Wuyan didn't even know how much willpower she had to endure the confrontation without a sword, she clenched her fists tightly, her voice trembling, and asked Li Yuqi, "How do you know that the Shangguan family...has a treasure? What exactly are those treasures?" This question is what she wants to figure out no matter what.

"Huh?" This question seemed so sensitive that Li Yuqi became sober for a moment. He looked at Ji Wuyan strangely, and opened his mouth, "You...you are...Xiaoyuan? I , What did Bengong tell you just now?"

At the side, stretching out a hand in time, it was Ning Xiuyuan, who took the wine glass and passed it over, "Don't say that there are no more, drink. It's a rare visit, so don't drink to your heart's content, Your Highness...please."

The topic was forcibly changed, Li Yuqi felt his mind was fuzzy and drowsy, he felt that there was something wrong with this wine, why did he get drunk after only one pot?There is also Xiaoyuan, who is submissive and cautious on weekdays, but today she is a little weird... As for what she said just now, she couldn't remember for a while.He shook his head, seeing that Ning Xiuyuan had also drank a lot, and he thought there would be no problem, so he took the glass and touched Ning Xiuyuan's, "Master, it's rare to drink with you... I must, I must have fun ..."

While speaking, his tongue was already open.

If there was no such incense, Li Yuqi would have fallen asleep lying on his stomach at this time, but this fragrance is both confusing and waking.

This is Chen Lao's last bottom line, non-toxic but useful.

Ji Wuyan moved the incense again, and placed it on the upper air vent, while Li Yuqi was sitting on the lower air vent, with the curtains fluttering gently, the incense wafting pleasantly, Li Yuqi thought it smelled good, and after sniffing, he became more and more confused stand up.

In the black pupils, the eyes seemed to be in a daze.

Ji Wuyan's voice became softer, and she asked him patiently, "Your Highness... what is the treasure of the Shangguan family?"

"Treasure..." Li Yuqi's eyes trembled slightly, as if he was struggling, but he never came to his senses. He muttered in a daze, as if he was dreaming, "Shangguan's family escaped to the south of the Yangtze River not because they offended the concubine, but because they were ordered by the emperor. I went on a secret treasure hunt, Shangguan is the treasurer of the Li family...treasures, weapons...military power..."

Military power?weapon?
The treasure keeper of the Li family?

So when my sister vowed to marry into the Eastern Palace, my grandfather also tried to stop her?But why didn't he say it?Why do you know that it is a fire pit and still watch your own granddaughter jump into it?Is it true that the emperor's life is more important than the happiness and lives of his relatives?
For these years, Shangguan lived in Tanzhou, and almost avoided the world, restrained himself, and his father also criticized him a lot, but his grandfather insisted on going his own way, and his grandmother looked down on him even more, calling him a coward.Ji Wuyan's eyes trembled slightly, and it was inevitable that she resented her grandfather's decision-making for causing today's catastrophe, but she also knew that this was not the time to indulge in an outburst of emotions.She endured pains and asked Li Yuqi, "How did you know?"

"Yu, Yushu..." Before he could finish his words, he fell down with a "boom", and then snoring started.

Ji Wuyan was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and pushed lightly, but he didn't push, and with another push, Li Yuqi fell to the ground, knocking his head on the ground, the sound was quite loud, but he didn't wake up at all.After seven days of drunkenness, it began to take effect.

Ji Wuyan glanced at Ning Xiuyuan, extinguished the incense that was still burning in the incense burner, glanced at Ning Xiuyuan who seemed to be still awake, frowned slightly in disbelief, "You...you mean he can't drink Excellent?"

The sound of Li Yuqi falling to the ground made his teeth sour. Ning Xiuyuan felt a little sympathetic to him. Hearing this, he glanced at Li Yuqi, who was sleeping on the ground and snoring like thunder. Man, he is so unconscious at the moment, and he doesn't know whether it is due to the seven-day drunk or the incense.

He complained for Li Yuqi, "If this pot of wine goes down, an elephant should fall down. No matter how good the capacity for alcohol is, this is not the way to drink it..." The little girl was very cruel.He seemed to have forgotten that the one who grabbed Li Yuqi, you a glass of wine and I sipped "Hello, brother" was obviously himself Ning Xiuyuan.

Ji Wuyan looked up at him, "Aren't you still awake?"

"I don't drink much." Ning Xiuyuan pursed his lips, returning to the scene he saw when the other party just came over, so much that he didn't want to see Li Yuqi at all, "Looking at it, I can't ask anything, go back .”

Ji Wuyan nodded, and poured the tea directly into the incense burner in front of him, stood up and waited for Ning Xiuyuan to go back together, but Ning Xiuyuan waved his hand, "Your carriage is at the corner gate, you go first, I'll come on horseback, this time It is estimated that the horse has also run back, so you wait for me. I will clean up this place and go to find you."

Ji Wuyan didn't know what Ning Xiuyuan was going to clean up, but she was still a little uncomfortable with Ning Xiuyuan at the moment. After all, she tricked him into running away, and she didn't dare to provoke him anymore, so she nodded and said yes. He picked up his skirt and quietly returned the same way, passed the corner door, the concierge slept soundly with his neck curled up, the sound of "squeak" when the wooden door was pushed open woke him up, he rubbed his eyes and woke up, seeing Ji Wuyan drowsily sucked the drool drooping from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Miss Yuan is still going out... The East Palace is under martial law, so don't you come in and out too frequently these days..."

After speaking, he nodded his head and fell asleep again.

The prince closed the door and thought about his mistakes. Naturally, it is impossible to not even allow his servants to go out, but the guards are stricter than usual.

But it was only limited to the main entrance. At places like the corner gate, the soldiers also turned a blind eye. After all, orders must be obeyed, but the East Palace is not easy to offend, is it?Therefore, Ji Wuyan came and went, and did not encounter any soldiers who came to question him.
