Concubine Chang Domineering: Silly Girl Plays Cold King

Chapter 163 Owen (1)
After a long time, Zhongli Xiche finally said: "Mr. Liu, why are you awake, but the emperor has been unconscious?"

Seeing that Zhongli Xiche was so approachable, Liu Xuanyuan said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so polite. I heard from my mother that I have suffered from this disease since I was a child. I have been sleeping all the time, but my mother is afraid that if I sleep like this, my body will not be able to bear it. Give me grass soup. After drinking it for three days, I woke up."

Zhongli Xiche was taken aback.

Xinxin asked curiously: "Why don't you drink porridge? Is it nutritious to drink porridge without grass soup?"

Liu Xuanyuan smiled, and said calmly: "Where is there porridge, it's just some rotten steamed buns every day."

Everyone was stunned.

At this time, Zhonglixi Che said: "Do you still remember the herbal medicine back then? I think it might be useful."

Hearing this, Liu Xuanyuan said, "I'll bring it tomorrow."

Zhongli Xiche nodded.He raised his head and said: "It seems that Mr. Liu's family also has someone who knows how to poison! I think, I should go and meet."

"Yes, it's really cruel to use this kind of thing to hurt people!" Xinxin said dissatisfied.

Liu Xuanyuan smiled slightly and said, "There is no need to be angry with such a person."

Zhongli Xiche nodded: "Young Master Liu, you also know my identity. I will not hide anything from you about the emperor, I need to get the herbal medicine as soon as possible, I hope you can get it as soon as possible. Then go to Liu's residence to find me."

Liu Xuanmo frowned, as if there was something unspeakable.

Seeing this, Xie Min'er stepped forward and said, "Xi Che, I think Mr. Liu doesn't want to step into Liu's residence again."

Zhongli Xiche suddenly realized, and said: "It's because I didn't think carefully, so please wait for me outside Liu's mansion." After saying that, he called Shang Xinxin to Liu's mansion together.

Seeing this, Liu Xuanyuan said: "I'll go to my mother to ask for herbs." Then he left in a hurry.

Seeing this, Xie Min'er and Cai Qianlei said, "Let's follow Xi Che."

"Xi Che, wait for us." Cai Qianlei called.

Zhongli Xiche stopped in his tracks and smiled: "Why are you here too? There are simply not so many people."

Xie Min'er smiled: "One more person has a better chance of winning."

Zhongli Xiche nodded.The four came to the gate of Liu's residence.That majestic appearance made Zhongli Xiche's eyes light up: "I didn't know there was such a family in the capital? It seems to be even more grand than the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Xinxin looked at it and said, "Yes! It looks so brilliant! It seems that Mr. Liu has made a lot of money!"

"Well, he got up when the Wang family was not behind. One of the three people in the Wang family's business was robbed by him." Xie Min'er said slowly.

"What about two-thirds?" Xinxin asked curiously.

"Of course it's Brother Lin." Zhongli Xiche said with a smile.

"Xi Che is right. I didn't know Brother Lin had a talent for business. It seems that I have to learn from him." Cai Qianlei teased.

The three laughed, Zhongli Xiche saw this, and said: "Just don't lose money."

At this time, the two guards of the Liu residence saw Zhongli Xiche standing at the door and did not leave.Can't help but look bad: "Who are you? What's the matter standing outside the gate of Liu Mansion?"

Xinxin frowned, and said: "This gate is not your family's territory, why don't you let people stand there?"

"Hmph! What kind of wild girl! Hurry up and leave! Liu's house is yours to judge!" The guard looked at Xinxin with disdain, and said.

Zhongli Xiche frowned, and said in a low voice: "Let the slave look at the master. It can be seen that this Master Liu is also a bullying master!"

"Well, if not, I wouldn't have abandoned Mr. Liu." Xie Min'er frowned and said.

Seeing this, Cai Qianlei shouted in a deep voice, "Let your master Liu come out! I want to ask him how he paid his slaves!"

As soon as Cai Qianlei's words fell, the two guards laughed loudly: "It's up to you! It's not enough!"

"Whether we are qualified or not is not up to you." Zhongli Xiche said coldly.

The two gatekeepers turned cold from the bottom of their hearts.Looking at Zhongli Xiche's temperatureless eyes.The two discussed it and decided to report it later.

"It's really a dog's eyes to look down on people!" Xin Xin said with a curled lip.

"Forget it, Xinxin, we don't need ordinary knowledge for such a person." Xie Miner said coldly.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came over and said disdainfully: "You want to see my master?"

Zhongli Xiche frowned and said, "Yes!"

Seeing this, the middle-aged man said coldly: "Who are you? You want to see our master and come back tomorrow! Our master is busy! No time!"

Zhongli Xiche was speechless.Xinxin was about to get angry.Zhongli Xiche stopped her and said: "Okay, if that's the case, it's fine." Then he turned his head and said to Xinxin, "Xinxin, take my badge and go to the prefect to ask him to make an appointment for me in advance. Master Liu!"

As soon as Zhongli Xiche said this.Both Xie Miner and Cai Qianlei laughed.

Xinxin immediately said: "Okay! I'll go right away!"

"Wait!" The man looked at Zhongli Xiche suspiciously and said, "Who are you? How did you become friends with the magistrate?"

"Who is this palace? It's not your turn to ask!" Zhongli Xiche raised his airs.

The man was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Bengong? Bengong?" Then he looked at Zhongli Xiche carefully and got up, then suddenly knelt down, "I don't know if it's the imperial concubine or empress who arrived! Empress, please forgive me!"

Behind them, the two guards were so scared that they peed on their pants, and hurriedly cried: "The villain has blind eyes! The villain has eyes but can't see Mount Tai!"

"Don't call your master yet!" Cai Qianlei coughed and said seriously.

The butler immediately said: "Yes, yes! The servant is going!"

Zhongli Xiche laughed: "It seems that this level of official is indeed crushing people to death!"

Xie Min'er smiled: "Yes! If you don't put on airs, they think we are easy to bully."

"I see! The magistrate should arrest him! I'm so pissed off!" Xinxin said angrily.

"Okay, we have a mission this time. Let's go." Zhongli Xiche said, and stepped into Liu's residence.It's already brilliant outside.And inside, it is very grand.The furniture is all the best stuff.

Seeing this, Cai Qianlei was full of praise: "Master Liu really knows how to live!"

"Yes! Master, look. The flowers over there are so beautiful!" Xinxin said enviously.

Zhongli Xiche raised his eyebrows, looked at the garden, and said with a smile: "It's really beautiful, comparable to the imperial garden. This variety is really complete!"

After hearing the butler's report, Mr. Liu ran out of the house in fright.Seeing Zhongli Xiche and the others, he immediately said: "Cao Min pays respects to the imperial concubine and empress!"

Zhongli Xiche turned around and raised his eyebrows, this is Master Liu's tall and strong body.Round eyes, but like a Maitreya Buddha.Can't help laughing: "Get up."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Then he immediately ordered the maids to pour tea.

Zhongli Xiche sat on the main seat.Xinxin stood by.Xie Min'er and Cai Qianlei sat at the bottom right of Zhongli Xiche.

Master Liu kept wiping his sweat, not knowing what to do.

Zhongli Xiche smiled: "Sit down, Master Liu. You don't have to be so polite."

"Yes yes yes." Master Liu sat down.But it is awkward.I don't know where to put my hands and feet.Enough to show his nervousness.

Seeing this, Xinxin laughed sullenly.

Hearing this, Master Liu laughed naively twice.

"Xinxin, don't be rude." Zhongli Xiche whispered.After seeing Master Liu, my impression of him improved a lot.

Xinxin nodded: "Yes."

Master Liu foolishly spared Rao's head and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

Seeing Master Liu act like this.Xinxin couldn't help but burst into a "puchi" laugh.

Zhongli Xiche shook his head helplessly, and said, "Xinxin, you are getting more and more naughty."

Xinxin stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Mr. Liu said cautiously: "I don't know what orders the imperial concubine has to give when she comes to the cold room?"

Zhongli Xiche smiled, and said: "It's nothing. I heard that Mr. Liu has a big business, so I came to ask Mr. Liu if he would like to make some contributions to the country."

Hearing this, Mr. Liu immediately said excitedly: "Of course I am willing! But, this business has always been taken care of by my third wife. So..." Mr. Liu said embarrassingly.

Zhongli Xiche was obviously taken aback when he heard this.He glanced at Cai Qianlei and Xie Miner.

Cai Qianlei said slowly: "Master Liu, it seems that you married a good wife! I don't know which family your wife is from?"

Hearing this, Mr. Liu said proudly: "My third wife is an orphan. I think he is so pitiful that I keep him by my side."

Seeing this, Zhongli Xiche secretly said in his heart: "It turns out that Mr. Liu is also very simple. But the third lady is tricky."

Not only Zhongli Xiche thought so.Cai Qianlei and Xie Min'er also felt that the focus was on the third lady.

So, Xie Min'er said: "Master Liu, I wonder if I can meet your third wife. We can discuss business matters."

Master Liu nodded quickly, and said, "Liu Quan, go invite the third lady!"

"Yes! Sir!"

Zhongli Xiche sat here, looking around.

Everyone is waiting for the third lady.Except for Mr. Liu's nervous look.I don't know what to do.

At this time, a woman came slowly: "Master, are you looking for me?"

Zhongli Xiche took a look.That Miaoman's figure does not look like Master Liu's wife at all, but looks like his daughter.Na Dan's phoenix eyes turned upward.It made Zhongli Xiche immediately think of Wang Xifeng portrayed by Mr. Cao Xueqin.

Zhongli Xiche looked at the third lady.The third lady was also secretly observing Zhongli Xiche and the others.Now I understand that these are some people who are not easy to mess with.

Seeing this, Mr. Liu cheerfully hugged the third lady in his arms, and said, "Qing'er, this is the imperial concubine, hurry up and salute!"

Qing'er was taken aback for a moment, and immediately knelt down, her tone was neither humble nor overbearing: "The woman pays her respects to the imperial concubine and empress."

Zhongli Xiche nodded, motioned Qing'er to get up, then looked at Qing'er and said, "I heard from Master Liu that you have always been in charge of this business?"

Qing'er smiled and said: "Going back to the imperial concubine, it's the master who praised the women too much. If it weren't for the help of the two sisters, I wouldn't be so handy."

"Oh?" Zhongli Xiche raised his eyebrows and looked at Master Liu.

Hearing this, Mr. Liu said with disdain: "Those two are just helping you. You are really too modest."

Zhongli Xiche remained silent, it seems that Master Liu loves this lady very much.

Xie Min'er smiled and said, "I don't know where the third lady is from?"

Qing'er's heart tightened, she looked at Xie Min'er, her eyes were full of smiles, and said: "Girl, of course the women are from this country."

Xie Miner nodded and remained silent.

Seeing this, Cai Qianlei said, "Master Liu, please invite your eldest wife and second wife out."

Although Mr. Liu was puzzled, he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately sent someone to do it.

After a while, the eldest lady and the second lady also came.He saluted Zhongli Xiche and stood up.

One of the two ladies is dressed in plain clothes, and the other is not high-profile.Xie Min'er looked him up and down, and frowned.Said: "Two ladies, do you have any discomfort?"

The two wives were taken aback for a moment, and said, "How does the girl know?" They spoke almost at the same time.Then they looked at each other, both of them were surprised.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the two of them, Zhongli Xiche knew that the two of them did not expect that the other would feel unwell.

Zhongli Xiche said with a smile: "Master Liu, I wonder if you have any heirs?"

Hearing this, Mr. Liu sighed, and said, "The family is unlucky!"

Zhonglixi raised his eyebrows.

At this time, the eldest lady said: "Master, is Yuan'er not suitable for your child?"

Master Liu snorted coldly, and said, "That son is a disaster! It doesn't matter if you don't recognize it! Back then, if it wasn't for Qinger, our family business would have collapsed!"

The eldest lady and the second lady stood aside and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Zhongli Xiche smiled and said: "Master Liu, I want to have dinner here, I don't know..." Zhongli Xiche didn't finish speaking.Master Liu said immediately.

"Of course! It's my honor for the imperial concubine to dine at this old man's house!"

"Hehe, just don't bother me." Zhongli Xiche said with a smile.

Qing'er's eyes flashed brightly, and she said, "Master, I'll make arrangements right now."

"Okay, okay, hurry up!" Master Liu said with a smile.

Zhongli Xiche smiled.

The eldest lady and the second lady did not say anything.

Zhongli Xiche got up and said: "Eldest madam, second madam. I think the scenery is pretty good, I wonder if the two of you can accompany me to see it."

The eldest lady and the second lady were secretly delighted when they heard this.Immediately nodded yes.

Zhongli Xiche, Xinxin, and Xie Miner walked outside.

Cai Qianlei smiled and said, "Master Liu, let me discuss business with you. If you have no problem, then ask your third wife. If she has no problem, let's start."

Master Liu immediately nodded in response.

Zhongli Xiche and the others walked slowly, until they reached a place where there was no one around, Zhongli Xiche stopped and said: "Sister Min'er, check the pulse with the eldest lady and the second lady."

The eldest lady and the second lady were flattered and immediately knelt down to thank them.

Xinxin helped the two of them up, and said, "You two ladies don't need to be polite."

Xie Min'er walked over and seemed to be carefully feeling the pulse of the two of them.

Zhongli Xiche said with a smile: "It seems that the third lady is very favored! Is the third lady responsible for all the big and small things in this mansion?"

"Yes, imperial concubine." The second lady replied.

"Why is this? Logically, the eldest lady should be responsible?" Zhongli Xiche asked pretending to be puzzled.

The second lady sighed and said, "Master likes it!"

"Yeah, it's nothing. I just feel sorry for that child, Yuan'er!" The lady sighed.

"Oh? What's going on here?" Zhongli Xiche asked with a smile.

"I don't know about the imperial concubine. The master has four wives in total. The second sister and I have never had anything to do, but the third sister gave birth to Yuan'er. We are also very happy. But I don't know why. Yuan'er was born the first Two days later, he became unconscious. What was even more unbelievable was that the business also plummeted. The master called a fortune teller. The fortune teller said that Yuan'er was an ominous person. So the master drove Yuan'er and the third sister out of the mansion together. And the four My younger sister became the third wife." The eldest lady patiently explained.

Zhongli Xiche frowned and nodded.

"There are no ominous people in this world." Xinxin curled her lips and expressed her point of view.

"Xi Che, it's all Gu poison." Xie Miner said, "But it's different from Mr. Liu and the emperor. It will only lurk here, and will die slowly after reaching a certain level." Xie Miner used the words that only Zhongli Xiche could hear. said the voice.

Zhongli Xiche nodded and smiled: "You two ladies, when did you feel something was wrong? When did the third lady enter the mansion?"

The second lady thought for a while, and said: "Return to the imperial concubine. The third sister entered the mansion in March last year. I felt something was wrong in January this year."

"Well, me too." The eldest lady also said.

Zhongli Xiche nodded.

"Imperial Concubine, is there anything serious about us?" Da Furen asked suspiciously.

Zhongli Xiche smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, the antidote will be sent to you after it's configured."

"Thank you, imperial concubine!" The two ladies were immediately excited.

Zhongli Xiche nodded and smiled: "By the way, do you know the identity of the third lady?"

The two ladies looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Forget it. Let's go, we should be able to eat." Zhongli Xiche smiled.

The two ladies also followed.The impression of Zhongli Xiche has improved a lot.It looks so beautiful.With such a distinguished status, she has no pretensions!
When a few people came to the dining room, they saw that the food was ready.Cai Qianlei is also here.

"How is it?" Cai Qianlei asked Xie Min'er in a low voice.

"Go back and talk."

Cai Qianlei nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After Zhongli Xiche sat down.Others took their seats.

Zhongli Xiche noticed that the eldest lady and the second lady did not sit down until the third lady was seated.And the third lady also had the slightest disdain on her face.No respect.He sat down next to Mr. Liu.

Zhongli Xiche frowned.Xie Miner also frowned.

Seeing this, Xinxin said in a low voice, "Master, it's true!"

Zhongli Xiche pulled La Xinxin's sleeve, shook his head, then turned to Master Liu and said, "Master Liu, you are so lucky! You have such good three wives."

Master Liu laughed "haha": "This old man admits it, especially my third wife!"

When the first lady and the second lady heard this, their eyes immediately dimmed.

Zhongli Xiche smiled.Said: "These three wives are certainly good, but Mr. Liu, don't forget the poor wife."

Qing'er was stunned for a moment, cursing Zhongli Xiche secretly in her heart, and said with a smile on her face: "Why would the concubine say that? The master is also very good to the eldest sister and the second sister."

"I didn't see it!" Xinxin couldn't help but said.

Everyone was embarrassed.

Zhongli Xiche smiled: "Xinxin, maybe our eyesight is poor. Well, I am very satisfied with the eldest lady and the second lady. I wonder if the two ladies would like to go to the palace to chat with me?"
