Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 563 The lucky man
Zhao Huaqiong was full of worries and really didn't want to accompany her mother and socialize and talk with other ladies and ladies. She found a secluded place and stared at the water in a daze.

When he heard Xiao Siming's name drifting into his ears while distracted, Zhao Huaqiong came back to his senses and raised his ears to listen carefully.

"Hasn't the murderer who injured Mr. Xiao been caught yet?"

"He drank flower wine until late at night. There was no one on the street. No one saw the murderer at all. How could he trace it? The servants accompanying him were all dead. It was just a matter of whether Xiao Siming could survive. "

"Young Master Xiao is lucky. It happened that the city guards were chasing the thief, and they happened to encounter Mr. Xiao who was seriously injured. Otherwise, all his blood would be gone. How would he still be alive today?"

"I heard that the gangster made a big gash on his neck. It was scary to hear that."

"Oh my gosh, if he can still survive after having his neck cut, he's really lucky."

"Xiao Siming is not the only one who is lucky. I heard from my father that General Jin Wei was sent out to the capital by His Majesty to do business, and the one who was punished became the deputy general of the city guard army. If General Jin was in Beijing, he would definitely be scolded."

"That's right. I don't know who Mr. Xiao has offended, so he caused the disaster of killing people. The cut on his neck was obviously meant to kill him."

"Who knows, I can't say what I did behind the scenes. Just like Qin..."

Speaking of this, the voice was inaudible, and I knew it was not a good thing to say.

Zhao Huaqiong was extremely annoyed when he heard this, and he was so angry that he tried to argue with the young ladies who were gossiping.

Mrs. Shangshu pressed her shoulders from behind and scolded her in a low voice:

"Don't do anything stupid!"

Zhao Huaqiong said angrily: "You don't even know what they said."

Mrs. Shangshu glared and said: "You are talking about other people's affairs, what does it have to do with you? I don't even look at where this place is. Almost all the powerful officials and families in Tai'an City are gathered here. There are many people and mixed eyes. You are standing out at this time." , let alone marrying a high-ranking family, you will become a laughing stock in Tai'an City in the future! Even your concubines in the mansion will laugh at you!"

Zhao Huaqiong gritted her teeth, and her heart ached with anger before she could bear it.

Mrs. Shangshu gave some gentle words of advice, and after hearing the voices of the female family members greeting Concubine Ming, Crown Princess, the young princess, and the third prince and concubine, she hurriedly pulled Zhao Huaqiong to go with them.

In the front hall, everyone wishing birthdays had arrived, and the four princes came. After saying birthday wishes to the old marquis, and seeing the old marquis playing chess with the grand master, Feng Sinian led everyone out of the longevity hall and came to the birthday hall. Sitting and talking in the yard next to the banquet.

After sitting down, Feng Sinian officially thanked several princes for coming over to celebrate his birthday.

The prince helped Feng Sinian to salute: "Pingyang Marquis Mansion served Tianchu with all his heart, and your father died young because he shielded his father from arrows. If my father hadn't been worried that his battle in passing the palace would be too big, on the contrary If you let the old Marquis have a solemn birthday banquet, he will definitely come to celebrate his birthday."

Feng Sinian: "How dare I bother your majesty to move the dragon steps to congratulate my grandfather on his birthday? Your majesty has always taken great care of the Marquis Mansion, and I and my grandfather are very grateful."

Chu Chengye stood up and stood next to the prince: "You don't have to be so polite in this year. Your Majesty sacrificed your life to save your father. I am very grateful in my heart. I have long regarded you as my brother. If you are of any use to me in the future, just ask. That’s it.”

The two of them expressed their sincerity to Feng Sinian several times without giving in, until Chu Chengping came to the rescue.

Everyone present looked at the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two, with expressions on their faces and secretly making calculations in their hearts.

Only Chu Chengyao wished that the two of them would fight.
