Jie a husband is too arrogant

Chapter 171 Extra Story [-]: A Filial Apprentice

Zhou Kang laughed immediately after hearing Ling Yun's words, "What's the point of this kind of reception banquet? The emperor just borrowed the banquet to choose a husband for Princess Zhuoyan, and the servant doesn't want to be a son-in-law, so it's meaningless to stay there?"

The corner of Zhuo Yan's lips curled up, and he raised his eyebrows.

Lingyun smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou is really hypocritical. Miss Huang is beautiful and is favored by her father. Which man would not want to marry her?"

Zhou Kang approached Lingyun, his eyes were affectionate, and he said lightly, "Princess Zhuoyan is very beautiful, but the lower officials prefer someone as gentle as Princess Lingyun."

Ling Yun's cheeks flushed immediately, and she said shyly, "Young Master Zhou dares to make fun of this princess, you really deserve it!"

Zhou Kang immediately said, "Everything I said is the truth. I have been in love with the princess for a long time. When I entered the palace today, I wanted to see the princess. I am not interested in Princess Zhuoyan's choice of son-in-law at all!"

Zhuo Yan stood beside the flowers and sneered, just now he was courting her with his cloak, and then fell in love with someone else in the blink of an eye, Zhou Kang's speed of changing his mind this week is really unmatched by ordinary people.

I'm afraid he just saw that he didn't care about him in the palace, and met Lingyun here, so he thought about Lingyun again.

In short, marrying a princess will do him no harm.

Although Zhou Kang was frivolous and exaggerated, he was also a good-looking talent, and Ling Yun grew up in the palace since he was a child, and had never seen many men. Seeing his "affectionate" really moved his heart, and said shyly, "What do you think?" Is it true? You really don't want to marry Miss Huang?"

"Of course, I can learn from the world's heart towards the princess. To be offensive, I feel that Princess Zhuoyan is not as good as the princess, and she is not as considerate and gentle as the princess, so I haven't married yet!" Zhou Kang's voice became more and more serious. Low, with a bit of schadenfreude, obviously wanting to make Lingyun happy.

Sure enough, when Zhou Kang belittled Zhuo Yan, Ling Yun's smile became brighter.

Zhuo Yan gritted his teeth, full of anger, Zhou Kang's courtship to Ling Yun was nothing more than that, how could she tolerate her stepping on her to praise others!
Just as he was about to walk over there, he heard a low voice from over there, "It's good that Mr. Zhou likes Princess Lingyun, why bother to belittle Princess Zhuoyan like this? How dare you say what Mr. Zhou just said in front of Princess Zhuoyan?"

It's Wu Yi!
Zhuo Yan's eyes flashed, then stopped, and the corners of his lips parted unconsciously, it turned out that her master also knew how to protect her!
Hearing Wu Yi's words, Zhou Kang's face turned pale with fright, "Xiaguan, Xiaguan have no intention of speaking, nonsense, witch doctor must not tell Princess Zhuoyan!"

"I heard that Mr. Zhou presented a cloak to Princess Zhuoyan in Jinxiao Pavilion just now, saying that he hunted on the mountain himself, and that only Princess Zhuoyan's dignity is worthy of a nine-tailed fox. Are they all lying? ?” Wu Yi asked quietly.

"Damn, of course not!" Zhou Kang hesitated.

Lingyun's face was already a little ugly.

Wu Yi continued, "Since you didn't lie, then Mr. Zhou entered the palace today because of Princess Zhuoyan?"

Zhou Kang knew that Wu Yi was reused by Emperor Jin Li, and was the master of Princess Zhuoyan, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense, and said awkwardly, "Yes, yes!"

Ling Yun glared at Zhou Kang fiercely, and said angrily, "Then what you said just now was a lie to the princess?"

After finishing speaking, he pushed Zhou Kang vigorously, and angrily ran away along the way he came.

Zhou Kang's face was pale, embarrassment and anger in his heart, but he inappropriately attacked Wu Yi, and said in a serious tone, "I have to go back to Jinxiao Pavilion, so I won't talk to Doctor Wu, leave! I was joking what I said just now I also hope that the witch doctor will not tell Princess Zhuo Yan to cause misunderstanding."

Wu Yi smiled slightly, "Naturally."

Seeing Wu Yiying, Zhou Kang heaved a sigh of relief, and walked out of the garden quickly, looking rather embarrassed.

Wu Yi stood there, waiting for Zhou Kang to leave before moving on.

Going around the flowers, Wu Yi was stunned when he saw Zhuo Yan standing there, turned his head to look at the direction Zhou Kangyuan was heading for, and said with a soft smile, "So you are here! It seems that you are meddling for the teacher! "

Zhuo Yan put his hands behind his hands, his delicate face smiled, and Ben Mingyan's temperament became a little more agile, "Master still loves me!"

Wu Yi glanced at her, "I'm afraid you really won't be able to get married!"

Zhuo Yan raised his eyebrows, "Then you marry me! This princess will accept you as an old man!"

Wu Yi walked back along the path, was startled when she heard the words, turned her head slowly, and gave her a smile that was not a smile, "But as a teacher, I don't want to give up!"

Zhuo Yan, "..."

Wu Yi seemed to be in a good mood suddenly, turned around and left again.

Zhuo Yan blushed, seemingly annoyed but not annoyed, he snorted coldly and said to himself, "Arrogant old man, if this princess doesn't accept you, you will never give up!"

After she finished speaking, her face became even more red, she bit her red lips, and her heart beat wildly.

Has she really moved her heart?
Still in love with someone who doesn't like her!
Zhuo Yan sighed, shook his head, his heart was disturbed, he didn't have the mood to go back to Jinxiao Pavilion, and went back to the palace alone.

The princess didn't come back for a long time, Jin Lihuang sent someone to look for it, the palace man came back and said that the princess was unwell and left the banquet early.

The protagonists had all withdrawn, and it was meaningless for the others to sit down. Jin Lihuang left the banquet early, and the matter of choosing a husband for Zhuo Yan was also settled.

Two days later, Wu Yi got the news that there was a person with the blood of Yin in a small town called Miluo in the east of Jinli country, so he gave the prepared medicine to Jin Lihuang, and went out of the palace to look for someone.

Jin Lihuang kept sending Wu Yi out of the palace, Wu Yi got on the horse and walked towards the palace gate.

After leaving the city gate and on the official road, the man subconsciously looked back.

The people at the gate of the city came in and out, and there was a lot of noise, but there was no sign of the woman.

He was afraid that Zhuo Yan would follow him again, so he didn't say goodbye to her, and didn't even say that he was going to leave.

At this moment, he was alone, and suddenly felt that something was missing around him.

Ever since he was a child, he has been coming and going alone, and after being yelled at by that woman for several months, he suddenly quieted down, isn't he used to it?

Human habits are a wonderful and terrible thing.

The corners of Wu Yi's beautiful lips curled into a self-mockery, and he galloped away.

In the evening, Wu Yi rested in a small county near the capital.

It was getting late, but the streets were still bustling and crowded. It looked like a porridge shop was distributing porridge to the poor in front of it. People who came to drink porridge crowded almost half of the street, holding empty bowls, and crowded into it one after another.

Wu Yi led the horse through the middle, he was dressed in a spotless white robe, his face was extremely beautiful, his temperament was refined, he was particularly eye-catching among a group of ragged people.

Suddenly, a man dressed in shabby clothes and covered in dirt came from the opposite side with the help of an old man with half-haired hair, holding a bowl in his hand, looking towards the porridge place, and walking quickly.

The two looked disheveled, as if they hadn't eaten for a long time, seeing so many people, they felt anxious, walked forward quickly, and bumped into Wu Yi.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The man bowed and apologized to Wu Yi repeatedly.

A layer of dust fell on Wu Yi's snow-white robe, he frowned subconsciously, but smiled lightly on his face, "It's okay, help the old man, and walk carefully!"

"Yes, yes!" The man nodded guiltily.

Wu Yi continued to lead the horse through this section of the crowded street.

Not far away is the inn, Wu Yi went in, saw that Xiao Er was dressed cleanly, then went to the counter and said, "I want a room!"

"Okay!" The shopkeeper stood behind the counter, responded with a smile, took the key, and asked Xiao Er to take Wu Yi upstairs.

"Bring me a piece of dinner, and the vegetarian dishes will be fine!" Wu Yi confessed again.

"Okay, okay!" The shopkeeper made some calculations and said with a smile on his face, "There are six copper leaves in total, please pay for it."

Copper leaf, silver leaf, and gold leaf are the common currencies of Jinli.

Wu Yi reached out for the money bag, touched his waist, and was stunned.

The purse is gone.

He looked down again, and also looked for the salute on the horse, but there was still nothing.

It suddenly occurred to him that he was bumped by that beggar-looking man at the soup kitchen just now, and he must have stolen the purse.

He didn't notice it, and he lost his vigilance when he saw an old man in his hand.

Damn!

Wu Yi frowned, if he ran out of money, he would sleep on the street tonight.

There are still five or six days' journey to Milo, how will he travel?

It would be a joke if he went back to the capital because he had no money.

Seeing Wu Yi standing there, the shopkeeper's eyes flickered. It seemed that he had no money to pay the bill. The smile on his face faded, and he said, "Isn't there no money for the guest officer?"

Judging by the clothes, it doesn't look like it doesn't have such a few copper leaves.

Wu Yi turned his head and walked out without saying a word.

After walking two steps, I heard a woman behind me shout, "Xiao Er, why hasn't the hot water I asked for been delivered upstairs?"

Wu Yi stopped there and turned around abruptly.

On the wooden ladder, the woman was dressed in red, with high hair and a pair of bright and shining phoenix eyes, dazzling and dazzling.

The woman also saw Wu Yi, grinned immediately, ran down the stairs, ran to his side, and called out affectionately, "Master!"

Wu Yi stared at her blankly, "Why are you here?"

"I came with you, but I took a short cut, I booked a room here in advance and waited for you!" Zhuo Yan laughed.

Wu Yi had an intuition that something was wrong, but Zhuo Yan's arrival solved his current predicament of having no money, so he was happy.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to drive Zhuo Yan back.

"Master, go upstairs, I have already opened the room, and the hot water will be brought up by Xiaoer immediately!" Zhuo Yan was very obedient, showing respect for Master.

Wu Yi nodded, and walked up the stairs, Zhuo Yan followed behind.

It's early winter, and the wind is cold and windy outside, and a warm current flows through Wu Yi's heart inexplicably.

Maybe when I encounter difficulties, I realize that it is still very good to have an apprentice by my side.

The rooms of the two are next to each other, Zhuo Yan escorts Wu Yi into the room first.

Wu Yi swept over the bed and table, they were clean, and sat down at ease.

Xiao Er brought up the meals, six dishes, all of which were vegetarian.

"Master, it's time to eat!" Zhuo Yan set the table and chopsticks and greeted Wu Yi.

Wu Yi sat down on the chair and asked, "How do you know I left the capital?"

Zhuo Yan shrugged his shoulders and smiled lightly, "If the apprentice doesn't even know about such a big event as the master's departure from the palace, isn't what my apprentice has done too reckless?"

Wu Yi put rice grains in his mouth, concentrated on eating, and stopped talking.

After the meal, Xiaoer put away the dishes, Zhuo Yan said with a smile, "Master has a good rest after a long day's journey, and the apprentice is next door, please feel free to say hello if you have anything to do!"

Wu Yi looked at her strangely, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

He didn't remember that his apprentice was so obedient!

If you don't run on him and make him angry, he will feel very good. Today is really a well-behaved abnormality.

Zhuo Yan suddenly leaned down holding the armrests of the wooden chair with both arms, looked straight at the man with his phoenix eyes, and blinked a smile, "Because I'm afraid that Master won't let me follow, so I try to please him!"

Under the lamplight, the woman's bright autumn eyes shone with a heart-pounding light. Her original brilliance was now a little more charming. The two of them were so close that Wu Yi who was so close could see her flawless skin like white jade. , seeing his own reflection in her eyes.

The man stepped back a little, leaned on the back of the chair, raised his head and smiled lightly, "I'm finally enlightened, I'm very relieved for the master, I hope the apprentice will keep it up!"

Zhuo Yan stood up, "Master, don't worry, this disciple will be filial to you in the future! Rest well!"

The woman squinted her eyes and smiled, the red dress was glowing with fire, she turned around and went out.

Wu Yi sat on the chair, staring at the flashing red shadow, he didn't move for a long time, his mind was blank, and he didn't wake up until Xiaoer who brought hot water came in.

Zhuo Yan walked out of Wu Yi's room, with a successful smile on his lips, he didn't go back to his room, but walked downstairs.

It was already night, the weather was cold, and there were few pedestrians on the street, Zhuo Yan left the inn and walked eastward, turning into an alley.

There was already a man waiting there in the dark alley, and it was the person who bumped into Wu Yi today.

Seeing Zhuo Yan appearing, the man immediately handed over the money bag he stole from Wu Yi today, "I haven't touched any money in the money bag, please check it, girl!"

Zhuo Yan weighed the purse in his hands, and praised, "The fastest player in the Jianghu really deserves his reputation. The most important thing is to show loyalty!"

Wu Yi's kung fu is not weak, but this person was able to steal the money bag without him noticing, indeed he has some skills.

There are many silver bills and gold leaves in this purse, which is much more than the silver she paid to the man, but he is not greedy for the money in this purse, which makes her admire.

The man smiled softly, "I have dealt with the girl before, so I can be regarded as a friend, otherwise I really wouldn't do this shitty thing!"

Zhuo Yan nodded, and threw the money bag back to him, "Okay, enough friends! These are all yours!"

The man asked in astonishment, "What are you doing, girl?"

"Even if I make you a friend, as you said, you have this ability, but you must never steal it!"

The man smiled, "Don't worry, girl!"

"There will be a period later!" Zhuo Yan cupped his hands.

"Girl take care!"

Coming out of the alley, Zhuo Yan went straight back to the inn to sleep.

Early the next morning, the two set off together.

However, in the next few days, Wu Yi fully understood the aggrievedness of not having money and the "sinister and cunning" of his apprentice!
He has always been very clean, and his clothes must be changed every day. Even on the way, he prepared no less than five sets of white robes. In this city, his apprentice bought him a set of red robes, nicknamed "Master and Apprentice Clothes".

He vowed not to wear it to the death, but couldn't bear it when the white robe was quickly stained with dust when he was on the road, so he had to give in.

Zhuo Yan looked at him in a red robe with a livid face, and the complacency on his face gave him the urge to drive her back to the capital.

What annoyed him was that both of them were dressed in red, and they were often recognized as husband and wife when they ate and stayed in hotels.

What was even more unbearable to him, Zhuo Yan used the excuse of saving money to only open one room in the hotel at night.

He vowed to die again, Zhuo Yan didn't even look at him, and followed Xiao Er upstairs, "If Master is not afraid of the cold, you can spend the night immediately!"

The cold wind outside is biting, she wants him to spend the night right away!
Wu Yi gritted his teeth in hatred, why did he think his apprentice had become obedient?
Not only was he not good, but his ability to be angry with him was simply at its peak!

This is her filial piety?
The shopkeeper of the inn persuaded, "The guest officer must have had a fight with the lady, right? Sleeping in separate rooms is not an option!"

After finishing speaking, the tone was low and ambiguous, "Husbands and wives quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. The beds in our inn are very firm, and the guest officer can coax the lady at night!"

Wu Yi was startled, and when he understood the meaning of the innkeeper's words, his complexion suddenly turned from white to red, from red to blue, like opening a dyeing shop.

In the end, he compromised and went to Zhuo Yan's bed.

The two slept with their clothes on. The woman slept dishonestly. In her sleep, her foot suddenly crossed over and landed on the man's leg.

Wu Yi pushed her down in disgust, turned over and rushed out, far away from her, less than a cup of tea, the woman hugged her like an octopus.

The man couldn't bear it anymore, hugged the quilt and slept on the ground in the middle of the night.

When he woke up the next day, Wu Yi found himself covered with two quilts, and the woman on the bed was curled up and still asleep.

The place where they stayed was a small town. There was only one stove in the house that went out in the middle of the night, and it was freezing cold in the second half of the night. The woman must have seen him sleeping on the ground and was afraid that he would catch the cold, so she gave him her quilt as well.

The man had been on fire last night, but now he broke up suddenly.

However, the result of Zhuo Yan's "sacrificing himself for others" was that after breakfast, he started to sneeze and have a stuffy nose as soon as he left the town.

In the afternoon, the symptoms of the wind-cold became more and more serious, and I had already started to have a headache and feel drowsy.

But the road they took was deep in the mountains and old forests, and there were no towns where they could stay.

In the evening, Zhuo Yan couldn't hold on any longer, so he got off his horse and had to sleep in the forest at night.

Wu Yi asked Zhuo Yan to rest under a tall tree, and went to gather firewood to make a fire by himself.

Zhuo Yan nodded confusedly, leaning against the tree trunk weakly.

Zhuo Yan was ill, Wu Yi was afraid of wolves in the mountains, so he didn't dare to go too far, so he gathered firewood and came back quickly.

After lighting the fire, Wu Yi turned to look at the woman, "Zhuo Yan?"

Zhuo Yan leaned against the tree trunk, with his eyes closed, motionless.

Wu Yi walked over and saw the woman's cheeks were flushed, and he raised his hand to touch her forehead, it was scorching hot.

The man frowned involuntarily, and took off his robe which should be on her, planning to go into the forest to gather some herbs to treat the wind and cold.

Fearing that wild beasts would approach, the man lit a fire around Zhuo Yan before getting up and leaving.
