Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 379
"Get out of the way! I hit it off with the little lady, and we are very destined. Why didn't you report earlier that the lady came to see you? I should greet you in person! How can there be any reason for the lady to be wronged like this?" Hu Shang He actually stood up to greet him.

It's nice to say, but didn't you wait until she was done with all the grievances before you pretended to welcome her?
Jin Xiang evaded Hu Shangxiang's invitation, knelt and sat beside the food table, nodded and smiled stiffly, "It's a matter of business to talk to you if you take the liberty of disturbing the gentleman's meal."

The Hu merchant immediately waved his hand and sent a pair of chopsticks to Jin Xiang, "Last time, the lady left as soon as the dishes were served, and it was a pity that I couldn't eat with the lady. Today, the lady appeared as soon as the dishes were served. It is God who wants to make up for my regrets that day! The lady can no longer refuse, she must eat the meal before talking about anything else."

Jin Xiang frowned, "As a woman of the slave family, I dare not share the same case with my husband."

"It's okay, I don't care about these things, and the lady is not wearing women's clothes now, so it doesn't seem wrong to others?" Hu Shang said with a smile.

Jin Xiang was a little anxious, "I came to look for Mr. Lang, but..."

"I heard that you Liang people pay attention to eating and not talking? I follow the Romans!" After speaking, he shut up, picked up the chopsticks, put the vegetables in his mouth, and looked at Jin Xiang with a smile.

Jin Xiang rolled her eyes in her heart, but she still kept a smile on her face.At this moment, she wished she could grab the Hu Shang's chopsticks and throw them aside, what to eat!Eat before my words are spoken!But knowing that she was here to invite people, not to cause trouble, she had no choice but to hold back, with a smile on her face, watching the Hu businessman eat his meal one bite at a time.

A pair of big watery eyes stared blankly at Hu Shang.Even though Hu Shang seemed to be very used to eating alone with others looking at him eagerly, he was not used to Jin Xiang's focused gaze, so he put down his chopsticks after a few mouthfuls.

"My lady doesn't like the food at Yuelai Restaurant?" Hu Shang asked with a smile.

"My master wants to invite Mr. Lang to come to the mansion." Jin Xiang immediately said when he saw him speak, "If Mr. Lang likes the food at Yuelai Restaurant, he should go to my master's mansion for a walk. Compared with the restaurants in Yuelai, the food on the menu is more refined and refined."

When Hu Shang heard this, he pondered and smiled, "Your boss?"

Jin Xiang nodded repeatedly.

"No." The Hu merchant shook his head and said, "I don't know your boss and I don't want to know each other. I just bought cloth here, and now the cloth lady has almost agreed to give it to me. This business is It's done, what are you doing seeing your boss?"

Jin Xiang was worried, "You are not a small business person. You can only talk about the small business of cloth when you talk to my master. If you meet my boss, you are talking about big business. You have traveled thousands of miles. Do you just want to talk about small business?"

When Hu Shang heard this, his face immediately became solemn. Although the attendants around him looked calm on the surface, if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that they all put on guard postures and hid their hands, as if Go touch the weapon.

Jin Xiang broke out in a cold sweat immediately, even though nothing happened at Yuelai Restaurant, it was still full of people and bustling.But she felt that the atmosphere around her was frozen for a moment, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

"Lang Jun...what do you think?" Jin Xiang tried her best to maintain calm, comforting herself silently in her heart, this is the lady's territory, and there are many palace guards lurking around where she can't see, she will definitely not call her anything.In case of turning her face, she can also escape.

After Hu Shang's face was condensed for a moment, he suddenly laughed lightly, "Who taught you to say this?"

"I myself..."

"Don't say you thought of it yourself, I won't believe it."

Hu Shang smiled and took a sip of tea.

Jin Xiang clenched her fingers, her heart pounding, "Yes, it was my boss who told me that if you don't want to come, you can ask him whether you want to do a small business or a big one." . If you want to do big business, you must leave this time when you come to the house."

Hu Shang lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then approached Jin Xiang suddenly, and asked in a somewhat ambiguous tone: "Ask the lady one more question. Since she is the owner, does it also determine the fate of the lady? The contract of sale of the lady, but in your In the owner's hands?"

When Jin Xiang heard this, her face couldn't help but burn, "Why are you asking this?!"

Hu Shang laughed, got up and said, "Then let's go!"

The entourage immediately guarded his surroundings and walked together with him towards the entrance of Yuelai restaurant.

Jin Xiang was left behind, and after leaving the restaurant, the Hu merchant stopped, looked back at Jin Xiang, and stretched out his hand to ask, "Maybe please lead the way."

Jin Xiang was still wearing Xiao Er's clothes, and before he could change into a change, he was invited into the Hu merchant's carriage.

"My carriage is in the backyard..." Jin Xiang was pushed into the carriage by the Hu businessman before he finished speaking.

"Since you want to be a guest at your host's house, it doesn't matter whose car you take? Just tell them to follow behind." Hu Shang said with a smile.

Hu Shang's entourage are all on horseback guarding around the carriage.Jin Xiang told the coachman the way, he didn't mention "Qi Prince's Mansion", he just said where to go ahead.

The coachman started to drive.

There were only Hu Shang and Jin Xiang in the carriage, a man and a woman, Jin Xiang was a little nervous.

That Hu Shang admired Jin Xiang's nervousness and uneasiness with great interest.Suddenly chuckling and approaching her, he said, "Are all the little girls in the Liang Kingdom so interesting? Or is it that the lady's temperament is particularly attractive?"

Immediately, Jin Xiang was so embarrassed that she didn't know why, she stared at the Hu merchant, "Stop talking nonsense!"

The angry look, with a slight blush, is quite coquettish, which makes people feel itchy.

That Hu Shang immediately burst into laughter, his hearty laughter made all the followers outside the carriage look sideways.

Suddenly there was a whistling sound from the front, and a group of attendants immediately guarded the carriage nervously.The coachman with the carriage hastily stopped the carriage.

Jin Xiang was surprised for a while, and lifted the curtains of the car with her white and slender fingers, and looked out, "It's this square, it's just a short walk away, why did it stop suddenly?"

Through the car door, the coachman mumbled something that Jin Xiang couldn't understand.

Hu Shang, who was sitting next to Jin Xiang, stared at the words and smiled, and looked at Jin Xiang: "It turns out that the status of the lady is extraordinary, and the owner of the lady is even more extraordinary! Prince Qi's mansion, come visit again some other day!"

After finishing speaking, the coachman outside had already turned his horse's head, and the carriage went in the direction it came from.

Jin Xiang was in a hurry, "How can it be another day? My boss is still waiting for you at home!"

Fortunately, the roads where Prince Qi's Mansion is located are very wide, and the carriages they were riding in were not too big. If they were riding on the carriages of Prince Qi's Mansion, they would not be able to turn the front of the car so flexibly.

But the carriage hadn't traveled far.The carriage followed by Prince Qi's Mansion has already galloped over, blocking the road in the workshop.

Hu Shang's driver had to stop the carriage.And he reported something to Hu Shang with words that Jin Xiang could not understand.

Hu Shang turned his face sideways and glanced at Jin Xiang, Jin Xiang was startled immediately, before she could react, Hu Shang had already stretched out his hand and grabbed her.

"I want to go, but I can't let you go. Why don't you go with me?" After finishing speaking, the merchant Hu laughed, grabbed Jin Xiang, and jumped out from the door of the carriage opened by the coachman.He landed firmly on the horseback given up by his entourage.

To hit a horse is to go fast.

"Let go of me!" Jin Xiang shouted angrily.

Hu Shang tightened his grip on the horse's belly while shaking his head, "That's a shame."

Suddenly, they were sitting on the road in the workshop, many guards came out, and the walls and roofs were full of bows and arrows.

Under the winter sun, the tip of the arrow glowed with a cold light, and it was facing Hu Shang and his party.

The guards blocking Hu Shang's way put long swords and broadswords in front of them, and the whole workshop fell into the freezing cold instantly, and the atmosphere condensed to the extreme.

"Do you know him?" Hu Shang whispered to Jin Xiang.The hot air exhaled from her mouth hit Jin Xiang's ears, warm and itchy, matching her extremely nervous mood at this time, it made her feel extremely weird for a while.

"I know." Jin Xiang said honestly, "So, it's better for Mr. Lang to come to my master's house as a guest. What are you doing in such a hurry to leave?"

The Hu merchant sneered, "I heard that the people of Liang are hospitable, and it really lives up to their reputation. Your boss is really hospitable too!"

As he spoke, he wrapped one hand around Jin Xiang's waist, freed his other hand, and waved forward.

The entourage around him immediately flew forward and fought with the palace guards blocking the way.

"My master invites a distinguished guest to come to visit me, and I hope that I will not refuse. There is no malice, I'm just afraid that the distinguished guest will not come to the door." The guard resisted and explained with a loud voice.

Hu Shang clicked his tongue twice in Jin Xiang's ear, "I've really seen this way of treating guests."

Hu Shang's entourage said something loudly in a language they didn't understand, probably to persuade Hu Shang to leave first.Hu Shang looked around, and there were arrows and crossbows all around him. He shook his head with a smile, "Little lady should have some weight, right? You are in my hands, tell them not to act rashly!"

"They won't. My boss really just invited you to visit us." Jin Xiang said.

The archers on the roof of the courtyard wall really didn't mean to shoot arrows, they seemed to be just a deterrent to prevent them from leaving.

Seeing that Hu Shang's entourage was getting more and more stalemate with the guards of the palace, Jin Xiang was a little anxious, but Hu Shang refused to let her go, and wanted to capture her and leave together.

Jin Xiang's kung fu has never been shown, and when Hu Shang was paying attention to her surroundings and was not on guard against her, he suddenly pulled out the dagger he was wearing from Hu Shang's waist. The scabbard of the dagger was inlaid with precious stones. It is sharp and breaks when blown.

She put the dagger on Hu Shang's neck with lightning speed, "Tell them to stop, I just invite you to be guests, and it is really strenuous to go to war like this!"

That Hu Shang never thought that the little girl in front of him would have such a straightforward approach, he thought that she was already scared out of her wits, but looking at her now, her complexion was serious and her eyes were firm, there was no sign of weakness at all.Regardless of the danger, she nodded appreciatively, "Little lady is really amazing, I admire, admire!"

"Stop talking nonsense! My master wants to see you!" Jin Xiang said with narrowed eyes.
