A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 25

How did he get to sit at the gambling table?How come you can't control yourself so much?
With a jolt, Mu Wuyin suddenly felt that everything around him seemed to be clear, his heart was clear, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong!
How should this end?Owing so much money, who will pay it back?

Looking up to the side, it was empty, the girl had disappeared.

"Where's the person?" His face darkened, and he asked the guard in a low voice.

The guard said: "Didn't that girl tell you just now? Go to the side and continue looking for her father, and you nodded."

Did he nod?I don't remember at all, could it be that I was really fascinated by playing and didn't care about the things around me?

He got up and wanted to leave, but the dealer hurriedly shouted: "Master Jing, we don't owe money on credit at the gambling house, and I will go to your house to get it later, you have to prepare it in advance."

"Ridiculous!" Mu Wuyin gave him a cold look: "I heard that this gambling house murdered people for money, and it turned out to be true. Even if my king was defrauded of more than [-] silver by you, wouldn't it be true if I were an ordinary person?" Are you really going to be forced to die? When I came to investigate today, I thought that you would restrain yourself when you saw this king, but you didn’t want to make things worse! If you want money, go to the government if you have the ability to ask for it!”

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Hey! Can the royal family and nobles not pay back the money they owe?" The dealer was full of confidence, and he was not afraid of his bluffing, so he immediately had people come forward to stop him: "Since you don't want to pay back the money, don't blame us for not being able to." Let you walk out of this gate, even if you sue the government, you will ignore it!"

The people around were in an uproar, talking a lot, King Jing was surrounded by a group of thugs, his face was very ugly.

"Go and notify the Kyoto Yamen!" He whispered to the guards next to him: "Let them send someone over."

"Yes." The guard agreed, and forced his way out, but the people from the casino didn't stop him and let him leave.

There was sudden chaos below, the gamblers were scattered and noisy.Mu Wuyin's face was ashen, and his eyes were still searching for the figure of the girl.

Jiang Taohua had already gone up to the second floor, sat next to Shen Zaye, and closed the window of the wing.

"You can do me a favor." She said with a pale face: "When the people from the yamen come, this matter will not be completed. It is better to invite King Yu over quickly. King Jing broke his appointment today, so he should come and see."

Glancing at her, Shen Zaiye said: "You don't need to worry about these, King Yu is already on his way."

"That's good." Relieved, Tao Hua snatched the tea in his hand, took two sips, and lay down on the table panting heavily.

Are you that tired?Shen Zaiye calmly poured himself another cup of tea: "Ms. Jiang is so powerful, she bewitched King Jing with just a few words, he is not usually so stupid."

Rolling his eyes, Jiang Taohua said weakly: "Of course he's not stupid, not only is he not stupid, but he is also very alert. If it wasn't for my concubine trying her best to pretend to find an opportunity, there is really nothing I can do."

"Did you use charm?"

"nonsense!"

"..." Shen Zaiye squinted his eyes: "So angry?"

Taohua sighed, propped her head up, looked at him and said, "It's not that I have a bad temper, it's that I'm still hurt, and I've persisted for so long, it's really uncomfortable. When someone is working hard to complete the task, the tone can be Can't you be gentle? Don't think that charm is something easy, it requires the right time, place, people and a lot of energy, it's not that simple."

Isn't it simple?Shen Zaiya pursed his lips. From a distance, she just cast a few winks.But... Seeing her so tired, he didn't say anything more, and got up to leave.

"Where are you going?" Taohua asked weakly.

"Where else can go, of course it's back home." Stopping, Shen Jaeye looked back at her: "You have done everything you should do, and the rest is my business, go back."

Nodding, she really wanted to go back, but...

"Can you give me a hand?"

"Jiang Taohua, don't push yourself too hard." He squinted his eyes in displeasure: "If you can walk, walk by yourself. What does it sound like if I help you out?"

Smiling back in anger, Taohua gritted her teeth: "If I could walk by myself, I wouldn't have opened my mouth to you!"

With a dark face, Shen Zaiye turned around, picked her up, squinted his eyes and said, "Isn't he still alive and kicking when he was standing beside King Jing just now? He can pour tea and hold hands for others. This will Are you out of strength?"

The weight of her body rested on him, Tao Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and her voice became weaker and weaker: "Is it interesting for you to be so sour? Just achieve the goal, and you don't care how I achieve it?"

"Women must have a sense of shame."

"Do you think I'm skittish or just messing around with others?" Tao Hua trembled with anger, "Don't speak so harshly!"

Who is she working for?It's fine if you don't get a reward, but you still have to be ridiculed by him?
Shen Zaiye sneered, didn't say much, carried her out, left the casino through the back door, and got into the carriage.

Zhan Lu drove the car himself, and whispered: "The people from the capital yamen will not come until King Yu arrives, master don't worry."

"En." Putting the person beside him away, Shen Zaiye said: "Hurry up and go back to the mansion."

"Yes."

When the carriage moved, bumps were inevitable along the way.Jiang Taohua's face was pale, and her makeup couldn't cover it: "Can you slow down?"

"No." Shen Zaiye said expressionlessly, "The sooner you get out of here, the safer you will be."

"Then...let me go down, I'll walk back by myself."

What are you kidding?Shen Zaiye glanced at her impatiently: "You don't want to take a carriage..."

Before he finished speaking, he was taken aback by her appearance.Looking down, she saw that the pink lotus skirt was blood-red around the waist, and she was so pale that she was about to faint.

"parking!"

The carriage stopped abruptly, and Taohua fell forward without grasping it firmly. Shen Zaiye reached out to catch her, and said in a low voice, "Are you crazy or something? You won't say anything when the wound is open?"

Opening her mouth, Tao Hua was so dizzy that she didn't have the energy to argue with him at all, so she just leaned into his arms and pretended to be dead.

"Zhanlu, follow the official path and go back calmly."

"Yes."

Without hesitation, she lifted her clothes and took a look. The wound had been torn many times. There was congealed blood on the white cloth, and some were fresh.

This is not dead, this person is a monster, right?

He took off the white cloth and put it aside, took a look at her hideous wound, Shen Zaiye pursed his lips, finally there was some emotion in his eyes.

Qingmos followed her master all the way, but in the end she couldn't keep up with the carriage, so she had to run back by herself.When she arrived at Zhengchun Pavilion, the master's wound had already been cleaned and re-wrapped.

"You take care of me." Xiang Ye looked at her calmly and ordered: "When your master wakes up, tell her that if you want to die, go directly to the warehouse to find a good dagger and wipe your neck. If you don't want to die, just quietly Stay, don't mess around."

Qingmo was taken aback for a moment, and then she became a little angry: "Isn't it because the master is so troubled today..."

"As a maid, don't talk so much."

Interrupting her roughly, Shen Zaiye raised his foot and walked out: "She made this wound herself, and if she dies on it, the gold will not belong to her."

Who is this!Moss stared with anger, watching Shen Zaiye striding out, cursing him for falling on the road!
The room was lit with soothing incense, Jiang Taohua slept soundly, but her face was still pale.The medical girl boiled the medicine and came in, fed her carefully little by little, and said to Qingmo: "The pharmacy has brought the best angelica donkey-hide gelatin, please ask the girl to find a careful maid to boil it, and I will give it to the lady later."

"Okay." Qingmo nodded, and hurried out to order.

The servant girl who had been watching outside the Zhengchun Pavilion quickly returned to the Ruanyu Pavilion and told Meng Shi everything she had seen.

Meng Zhenzhen listened with dark eyes, and tilted her head: "You mean, Mrs. Jiang went out today, but she came back with Master, and her old illness has relapsed?"

"Yes." The servant girl whispered: "Look at the master's appearance, he was very nervous, so he brought him back in his arms."

"Do you know where she went?"

"This servant doesn't know. I heard from other people that the Lord allowed her to go out and visit the capital today."

Rubbing the handkerchief, Meng Zhenzhen said displeasedly: "Most likely he is pretending to be sick, Master Bo, if he is not cured, then why go out!"

"I think so too." The little maid said, "What are you going to do? Teach her secretly?"

"Not in a hurry." Meng Zhenzhen raised her hand to block her words, and said, "Someone can find out what she is doing when she goes out, so that they can have something to say."

"Yes."

After sleeping for two hours, Tao Hua woke up for a quarter of an hour. Qing Moss wanted to ask her if she was hungry, but what she heard was: "Go outside and chat with the maid in the yard, just say that you will go out with me today. I am very happy to see the scenery of the capital of the Wei Kingdom."

Laughing and angry, Qingmo choked up and said, "Can't you worry less?"

Shaking her head, Taohua closed her eyes.

Qingmo had no choice but to sort out her emotions, go out according to her master's instructions, and sit and talk with a few maids who were making medicine.

"Where did my sister go with my wife today?" the little maid in the courtyard asked curiously.

Qingmo said with a smile: "After wandering the streets for a long time, I have seen most of the country. The capital of Wei State is really grand."

"That's right, sister, you can take a look at it when you have time. Our country of Wei is much more prosperous than that of Zhao." The little girl smiled and said while fanning the wind: "But it's a coincidence, why did the master just come back with the master?"

"I met you on the road, so it's fate." Looking at the little girl who asked the question, Qing Moss reached out to take the fan in her hand: "I'll come, you should go to have dinner too."

"Thank you, sister." The little maid stood up and happily called the other people in the yard to eat.Moss opened the medicine jar and checked it for a long time before continuing to boil.

The master is right, if she can't use her brain, she will die very quickly.The backyard of the prime minister's mansion is not inferior to Zhao's palace.

in the study.

Listening to the servant's report, Shen Zaiye curled his lips slightly: "As soon as King Yu is gone, it is expected that things will become a big mess. We will wait for them to go to the Imperial Study Room tomorrow. Zhanlu, Yanmo, we also have to prepare a booklet .”
