Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 123 Let's go to the north and eat a meal

"Hey, hey, hey, I just complimented you casually, don't take it too seriously... What's the matter?"

"When you return to the North Country, can you take me with you?"

Yingge looked at Yang Yuan in surprise, and even Ah Man beside him widened his eyes.

"You want to come with me?"

Yingge pointed at her nose and slowly became excited: "Okay, I think you are quite smart, then..."

Yang Yuan interrupted her and said, "Miss Yingge, I don't really want to go to the Kingdom of Jin with you.

“I just hope you can spread the word that you admire me and are willing to take me as your follower and take me back to the North Country.

"Then, take me along a stretch of water and let me go."

Yingge was stunned and asked curiously: "Why is this?"

Yang Yuan said with a sad face: "Miss Yingge, Prince Wanyan and Deputy Envoy Han are both dead, and you are a noble lady of the Jin Kingdom. You can just walk away and no one can do anything to you.

"But I can't do that. I'm just an ant, anyone can kill me. If someone finds out something, I'll be dead."

Yingge glanced at him, ant?

That's not what you said the last time I put a knife to your neck.

Yang Yuan said: "Miss, you are so generous and have given me so many jewels. Where should I go? Can't I live a life of luxury and wealth?
"So, I want to do something to make people think that I went to the Kingdom of Jin, so that no one will bother me in the future."

That's it...

Yingge pondered for a moment and said, "That's right. Even I was shocked by the deaths of Deputy Envoy Han and Wanyan Quxing. It would be strange for him, a common man, not to be afraid."

Thinking of this, Yingge couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in her heart, and readily agreed: "Okay, this is just a small matter, I promise you."

Yang Yuan was overjoyed and quickly picked up the teacup: "Young lady is indeed kind-hearted. I will use tea instead of wine to toast you."

Yingge raised her glass modestly, waiting for him to clink his.

At this time, a young girl came towards them step by step.

She was young and petite, wearing a straight-collared, double-breasted short shirt. Her hair was tied up with a red fringe and a small gold hairpin with three flowers on it was pinned on her bun. Her eyes were blurred by tears.

Yang Yuan glanced at her, then retracted his gaze and stared into Yingge's eyes: "Miss Yingge, do you think it is right or wrong to separate a couple who are unhappy with each other?"

Yingge hadn't even seen the girl who had just walked in yet, so she thought he was asking about breaking up her and Wanyan Quxing, so she said, "A couple that is resentful of each other is like an enemy, breaking them up is a great merit!"

"Well said. I will immediately ask Miss Yingge to grant me a great merit."

Yingge frowned: "What do you mean?"

Yang Yuan had already stood up and walked towards Lu Xi: "Lu Xi, why are you here?"

Lu Xi pointed at Ying Ge and asked, "Second brother, who is she?"

Yang Yuan suddenly became angry and shouted, "Lu Xi, you actually followed me?"

Yu Jiguang, Mao Shaofan, Chen Lixing and Da Chu were divided into two teams and pretended to be guests having tea. They followed Luxi into the teahouse and immediately dodged to the seats on the left and right, and pricked up their ears.

Lu Xi said, "Second brother, do you think changing the subject is useful? Let me ask you, who is she?"

"What do you know? I...my business, don't bother yourself. Go back quickly."

Yang Yuan looked angry and wanted to push Lu Xi out.

Lu Xi, however, bypassed him and said, "You don't dare to say it? I'll ask her myself."

Lu Xi rushed towards Ying Ge. Yang Yuan was afraid that she would annoy Ying Ge, so he grabbed her arm and threw her aside: "Have you had enough of making trouble? Get out!"

Luxi stumbled and hit his body on a tea table.

She didn't expect that Yang Yuan not only didn't feel ashamed, but actually treated her so rudely. Tears welled up in her eyes and she choked up and said, "Second brother, hello! You really deserve me."

Yang Yuan turned to Yingge in panic, as if afraid of upsetting her: "Miss Yingge, don't be angry, I'll chase her out right away."

Wugu Lun Yingge looked at Yang Yuan and then at Luxi.

This little girl likes Yang Yuan? She looks pretty good, although not as good as me...

After Yang Yuan said this, he grabbed Lu Xi's arm and tried to drag her out.

Lu Xi was extremely resentful, especially because Yang Yuan was so protective of that girl, which made her extremely angry.

Although Luxi usually looks like a harmless little white rabbit, she is quite strong when she gets angry. She struggled twice but failed to break free from Yang Yuan's arms, so she opened her mouth and bit him.

Yang Yuan felt the pain and let go of his hand with a cry of "Ouch". Lu Xi stomped hard on his foot again and took the opportunity to rush to Ying Ge: "Who are you and why are you with my second brother?"

Lu Xi suddenly saw the bundle on the table and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Are you... going to elope with him?"

Yingge was so angry that she laughed. She stood up slowly and glanced at Yang Yuan.

Seeing Yang Yuan's pleading eyes, Yingge made a decision in her heart.

She did not see any panic or shame in Yang Yuan's eyes, only a strong begging, begging her to fulfill her wish. In her opinion, the young woman in front of her was still very good.

But, in everyone's eyes, isn't Wanyan Quxing a perfect match for her?
Only you know whether the shoes fit you or not.

She saw Yang Yuan's eyes and believed that Yang Yuan would not abandon her. She also believed that he must have his reasons for doing so.

Just like she did to Wanyan Quxing,
Maybe, everyone in the world thinks he is good and a good match for me, but I just don’t like him.

Yang Yuan and this girl are probably in the same situation, right?
Thinking of this, Wugu Lun Yingge sneered and proudly puffed out her chest: "Elope? What's that to me? You have no right to ask who I am. I can only tell you that I like Yang Yuan and he will go with me."

"He and I are already engaged. He is my fiancé!"

"So what? Fiancé, fiancé. If you're not married, then you're not a husband. Besides..."

Wugu Lun Yingge said proudly: "Even if he is already your husband, so what?
"If I like someone, I'll grab him! Can you grab him better than me?"

When Lu Xi heard such shameless words, he was so angry that he was about to slap her in the face.

Ah Man shifted his body and suddenly blocked Ying Ge's way. He pushed and lifted her, then grabbed her elbow and pushed her away, saying fiercely, "How dare you be rude to my girl? Are you tired of living?"

Yang Yuan dragged Lu Xi away and said angrily, "Lu Xi, you are too outrageous. We are only engaged, not married yet, and you are meddling in my affairs and even following me to cause trouble."

Yang Yuan shouted, "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, bring me some writing brush and ink!"

Everyone in the teahouse was watching the fun. When they heard Yang Yuan yelling, the shopkeeper Wang Po hurriedly took out a pen and ink and brought it over: "Sir, do you want to..."

Yang Yuan said to Lu Xi, "So what if we are engaged? We haven't gotten married yet. If I want to cancel the engagement, there is no time limit for me to do so."

Yang Yuan walked to the table and spread out a piece of white paper. Fortunately, it was a red paper marriage certificate and a white paper divorce certificate, which was just right for the occasion.

Yang Yuan dipped the brush in ink and wrote: "I am ordered by my elder brother to marry the daughter of Song Laoshi from Qingshi Lane in Lin'an, whose name is Luxi.

"Now our six horoscopes are not compatible, and we did not have a good relationship before. I do not want her to be my wife, so I will sever all ties with you. You do not need to return the betrothal gifts, and you can take all the property in your house. I only ask you to leave quickly and marry someone else from now on. We will have nothing to do with each other."

After Yang Yuan finished writing, he signed his name and threw it into Luxi.

A piece of divorce letter floated down from the sky and slowly landed at the foot of Luxi.

Lu Xi never expected that Yang Yuan would be so decisive just because she came to find out the truth.

She looked at him in disbelief, as if she was meeting the man for the first time.

Yang Yuan said coldly: "I have already given you the letter of withdrawal of engagement. This store and the guests are all evidence. You can leave now!"

"Good! Good!"

Lu Xi nodded and stepped back. When she reached the door, she suddenly took off the small golden hairpin with three flowers on her head, threw it fiercely to Yang Yuan, turned around and rushed out of the teahouse.

Yang Yuan snorted, bent down to pick up the letter of divorce, and took out a few coins from his pocket and handed them all to Mother Wang.

"Please, boss, please keep this letter of divorce for her. If she doesn't come to pick it up, please send someone to deliver it to her at the address written on it."

Afterwards, Yang Yuan rushed to Yingge and said attentively, "Miss Yingge, I have solved all these little troubles. From now on, I will only be at your service, always at your service and always at your service."

"Ok!"

Yingge stood up and said, "I will leave for the Kingdom of Jin the day after tomorrow. If you have any unfinished business in the next two days, you can go and do it. Meet me at Longshan Wharf the day after tomorrow morning."

She knocked her shoulder against Yang Yuan's shoulder and said, "As long as you work hard for me, wealth and glory will be yours!"

Yingge walked out with Ah Man, and whispers were immediately heard all around.

Originally, it was not necessary for everyone to take sides because of the drama of Yang Yuan and Lu Xi breaking off the engagement.

However, when they heard that the woman he was welcoming with great enthusiasm was actually from the Jin country, and from her tone of voice she sounded like a person of great background, everyone felt sympathetic.

Some people even raised their voices deliberately and cursed Yang Yuan indirectly.

At this moment, Yang Yuan seemed unable to sit still any longer. He hurriedly paid for the tea, picked up his bag, and fled out of the teahouse in shame.

"Kong Mu..."

Chen Lixing leaned close to Yu Jiguang's ear and said, "Yang Yuan was taken in by Wugu Lun Yingge. Are they going to take him to the North Country?"

Yu Jiguang's eyes flickered. "I have probably guessed the reason why he was secretly talking to Wu Gulun Yingge and running around for her."

Mao Shaofan asked: "Could it be that... the death of Prince Wanyan and Deputy Envoy Han is related to him..."

Yu Jiguang shook his head: "That should be an unexpected accident they had not expected. However, who doesn't know that Wugu Lun Yingge and Prince Wanyan are not on good terms? So..."

Chen Lixing nodded: "No wonder this noble lady from the Jin Kingdom wants to keep him by her side and take him to the Northern Kingdom."

Yu Jiguang heaved a sigh of relief: "Very good, we will report the truth to the guard, and from now on, we won't have to follow him around and suffer so much."

"What? We don't have to keep an eye on him anymore?" Da Chu widened his eyes.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he waved to Dr. Tea and said, "Shopkeeper, hurry up and bring another plate of Lion Chestnut Cake, one plate of Rose Shortbread, one plate of Jade Yansuo Cake, and one plate of Chicken Head Stuffed Sugar!"
