Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 229 Such a handsome man, is he willing to give it to others?
No one answered, but the door opened naturally.

A gust of early summer night wind blows in, mixed with the scent of rose flowers in the yard, blowing into the room, with a heart-pounding intoxication.

Lu Xinyan vaguely recalled that she seemed to have forgotten to lock the door just now, but her thoughts did not linger on this matter, because her consciousness at this time had already been captured by the tall figure standing at the door Attracted.

The starlight is shining tonight, and he stands under the eaves, as if covered with starlight, hazy and tall, because of his height, the oil lamp in the room cannot illuminate his whole face, so his handsome features are half hidden in the darkness, and the deep outline is blurred and blurred. Gentle, and those eyes are brighter and hotter than the starlight behind him.

Ever since Jin Yu dropped the bomb that day, Lu Xinyan has not been able to sleep for the past few nights. As long as she thinks that Xiao Yichen may have liked a woman before her, her heart is like countless ants gnawing on her. Uneasy, uneasy about her emotions will be deeper and thicker than she thought, even more serious!
This also made her angry, so angry that she thought that when she saw Xiao Yichen again, she would definitely find various reasons to vent out the anxiety and anger in her heart by questioning or even making trouble out of no reason.

But when that man really appeared in front of her, her heart, which had been bitten by ants for several days, suddenly felt like being stabbed.

She suddenly felt distressed, not for her, but for this man!

With such an outstanding and brilliant man, what kind of woman would have the heart to hurt him?So people who don't trust people easily and don't want to admit their feelings, after finally trusting someone, after being betrayed, what kind of pain will they feel in their hearts?
Lu Xinyan got down from the bed involuntarily, without putting on her shoes, she ran directly to the man who stepped in and covered the door with his backhand.

Without waiting for the woman to approach, Xiao Yichen reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his arms.

The red lips of the woman in her arms were lightly hooked, revealing an extremely gorgeous, flower-like smile, "Xiao Shizi, am I beautiful?"

With a voice as light as a flute, with an irresistible charm, he asked this sentence softly.

That smile and voice were like a huge and sweet vortex, he was bewitched and lost in it, he couldn't help saying: "Beautiful."

"How beautiful?"

"In my heart, you are the most beautiful."

You are barely qualified!Lu Xinyan blinked, the tall figure in front of her blocked the blurred light of the oil lamp, her face was also blurred, but her eyes were shining brightly, "Then do you like me?"

She never thought that she would ask such a question to a man, or an ancient man, but for a moment, she especially wanted to know, or prove her position in his heart.

Lu Xinyan knows that even in modern times, it seems difficult for some men to express their liking or love.

In ancient times, for a man like Xiao Yichen, he had tried everything he could to bring her under his wing, but he had never personally said the word "like" to her.

If she doesn't ask, maybe she won't hear it for the rest of her life, Lu Xinyan held her breath, and her eyes couldn't help showing anticipation.

"I like it." The man's hoarse and deep voice, like a cello, directly hit the depths of her heart.

"How much do you like it?" She insisted.

"I like it more than my life..." Before the words finished, a sweet breath suddenly approached.

He put his arm around Lu Xinyan.

"Cold feet~"

Xiao Yichen picked her up by the waist, gently put her back on the bed, and stood up straight.

The little girl looked at him, "Are you leaving so soon? No, I won't see you for a few days. I miss you so much."

That expression seemed a little disappointed, Xiao Yichen's heart softened, "Don't go, I'll leave after you fall asleep."

"Really?" She bit her lip and looked at him expectantly.

Xiao Yichen nodded, and patted her arm lightly, "Let go first."

"No~" She pouted and refused willfully.

"Go to sleep, you sleep, I'll go."

Lu Xinyan smiled and said: "Brother Yichen, you are so kind~"

He stared at her, almost commanding, "Go to sleep!"

"Can't sleep~" she muttered.

Xiao Yichen couldn't bear it any longer, stretched out his big hand, touched her acupuncture points, and covered her with the quilt.

Lu Xinyan was stunned at first, then couldn't laugh or cry.

But when she thought of that woman who didn't know who she was, she felt heartbroken and jealous, and couldn't help but want to get close to him, comfort him, and seek comfort from him.

"Sleep, I'll go after I sleep."

"Xiao Yichen," came a muffled and soft voice from his arms, with two points of caution about the uncertainty of the future, "Will you fall in love with others in the future?"

So it turned out that she was out of order tonight because she was worried that he would fall in love with someone else?

She was really jealous, but Xiao Yichen found that his heart was not as happy as he thought, but a little bit of pain spread from his heart.

His woman should be arrogant and arrogant in front of him, instead of worrying about gains and losses like this!
He stared into her eyes, and said seriously: "No! In this life and forever, I, Xiao Yichen, will only like you!" His voice was not loud, but clear and clear.

The glazed eyes that reflected her restless face seemed to have magical powers. Lu Xinyan's heart instantly settled down when he looked at her like this, "You said it, if you dare to like someone else, I will, hmph, me too..."

"No!" Simple two words, without any hesitation.

Lu Xinyan smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said sweetly: "Brother Yichen, unlock my acupuncture points, I'm going to sleep."

At this time, Lu Xinyan had already forgotten the content of the marriage agreement, and her eyes were full of this man with affectionate eyes. There was nothing in those glazed eyes, only her.

The heart that seemed to be lost was suddenly filled, swollen and soft.So she closed her eyes obediently, opened them again from time to time, and secretly glanced at him.

She was still full of curiosity, jealousy and anger towards the woman who had hurt Xiao Yichen.However, she was extremely grateful to her at this moment. If she hadn't given up, how could she have met Xiao Yichen?

Lu Xinyan didn't sleep well for several nights, even though she didn't want to fall asleep so quickly, she soon fell asleep.

Before falling asleep, she said: "You only miss me when you leave, you know? Otherwise, I will be angry!"

Xiao Yichen smiled wryly, since he knew her, when has he never thought of her?Her bright smile, flamboyant smile, ecstatic smile, never left his mind for a moment.

"Okay, I just want you." He said softly.

"I will miss you too, only you, and no one else!" She promised with a smile.

After her steady and long breathing, Xiao Yichen looked at her silently for a while, and after turning off the oil lamp with his hand, he left without a sound.

The room full of fragrance got in through the open door, and was blocked by the quickly closed door.

The starlight shines into the room, and the woman on the bed is accompanied by the fragrance of flowers, so that she can sleep sweetly and peacefully.

So sad to leave!

After the man outside the house stood still for a while, he finally left cruelly.

Outside the Lin Mansion, Qi Fei and Qiu Wuya almost fell asleep waiting.

As soon as Xiao Yichen came out, the two single dogs woke up quickly, looking at their proud young master, their faces were filled with sorrow, and they dared not speak out.

"Master, I just felt an extraordinary aura around here." Qiu Wuya said: "But when I wanted to probe again, the aura disappeared again."

Qi Fei said: "I have checked around here, but I didn't find any suspicious person, perhaps, I just happened to pass by."

Qiu Wuya said: "That person's kung fu is not inferior to the three of us, if such a master comes to Jiang Lincheng, it's better to be careful."

Xiao Yichen ordered in a deep voice, "Send someone to investigate secretly."

The two clasped their hands together and said in unison: "Yes, young master."

Not long after the three returned, people from Suzaku Hall sent news.

"Young master, the tribute from the Jianglin Weaving Bureau that was lost in Luohe last year has been found on the black market in Luohe. Suzaku Hall is investigating the source."

When the tribute was robbed, it was natural to find a market to exchange for silver taels. It was impossible to find a market on the surface, and the most likely place was the black market in various cities.

According to this idea, the people of Zhuquetang sent a large number of people to search the black market in Ganshan one by one, and finally found traces of the transaction in Luohe, where he disappeared, and quickly reported the news.

After hearing this, Xiao Yichen licked his lips slightly, with a cold expression, "I don't know whether to say those people are bold or stupid. They stole the tribute and dared to trade in the Luohe black market!"

Qiu Wuya said: "It turns out that those tributes that were robbed could not be eaten or drunk, but now the court's focus is on the tributes that were robbed last month. Maybe those people think that it has been more than half a year and they are short of money. So take a gamble and take it out for some silver."

Take it out for silver?

Xiao Yichen thought about it, thoughtfully, "Send someone to continue to pay close attention! Report any clues immediately!"

Several people responded in unison: "Yes, young master!"

-

Lu Xinyan had a sweet dream, in which the sun was shining brightly, the breeze was gentle, and the birds were singing softly behind her.

She stood in a large sea of ​​colorful flowers, a man who looked like a banished fairy, wearing a crescent-colored ancient brocade dress, holding a bouquet of fiery red roses in his arms, facing the breeze, stepping on the sun, with a smile on his face. walk up to her.

He walked up to her, knelt on the ground on one knee, held a rose in one hand, and a ring in the other, looking up at the diamond-like starlight in her glazed eyes, "Will you marry me?"

He was wearing an ancient costume, yet he proposed to her in a modern way. She should be full of surprise.

But for some reason, her heart was only filled with joy and excitement, as if she felt that all of this should be like this.

She took the flowers in his hand and smiled sweetly, "I am willing."

She held out a hand to him, and he held it gentlemanly, bowing his head and kissing the back of her hand reverently.

Put that dazzling diamond ring on her, and kiss her finger reverently again.

Then he stood up and held her tenderly in his arms, motionless.

She was slightly dissatisfied. At this time, shouldn't the hero kiss the heroine?
What are you doing just hugging?
She broke away from him, pursed her red lips and closed her eyes, while standing on tiptoes.

Signal him that at this time, he can kiss his fiancée.

The kiss she had been waiting for for a long time did not come true, she was anxious and wanted to ask him what was going on, so she opened her eyes suddenly...

The beige tent, surrounded by red sachets embroidered with gold thread, is an antique girl's boudoir.

Lu Xinyan sat up abruptly, realizing that she was dreaming.

The pain on her lips and chest, as well as the lingering fresh breath reminded her of Xiao Yichen's visit last night.

No wonder she had such a dream!

Lu Xinyan let out a breath, recalling last night, her rationality slowly returned.

She clearly thought that if she saw Xiao Yichen, she would ask loudly, who belonged to that woman, why did she forget him as soon as she saw him?

Uh, it doesn't seem to be forgotten, it's similar to the feeling of being close to the hometown. To put it simply, I'm too scared to ask.

Lu Xinyan patted herself on the head annoyed.

Beauty is misleading!

As soon as I saw him, I lost all original intentions!

Lu Xinyan thought of the scene in her dream where she agreed to propose marriage, and what he said last night that the wedding was only on the wedding day, and her eyebrows twitched.

In modern times, she was clearly a non-marriage advocate, and in ancient times, she clearly signed a marriage agreement with Xiao Yichen.

Why overnight, she didn't seem like her anymore?

No, no, don't forget the original intention!
If she repents, is there still time?

Will that man allow her to go back on his word?
Whether he allows it or not, he has to respect her opinion, doesn't he?

Lu Xinyan shook her head violently, thinking of that handsome man, she had just made up her mind, but hesitated in a blink of an eye.

Such a handsome man, is she willing to let others use him?
Are you willing?
Are you willing?
She asked herself over and over again.

If it was before, she would say she was willing.

But these few days of entanglement and sleepless nights made her fully understand.

It is absolutely impossible for her to let Xiao Yichen be used by others!

But if she only looks at it and doesn't use it for others, it seems a bit like occupying the latrine and not shitting!

It seems very unfair to him!Right?She is not such an unreasonable person!

So confused!
Lu Xinyan shook her head violently.

do not care!
Even if she doesn't use it herself, she won't allow others to use it, just to be so domineering!

Whoever refuses to accept, come to bite, come to single-handedly challenge!
Hmph, who is afraid of whom!
She, Lu Xinyan, has such a big face, but she has never been afraid of anyone!
-

At this time, in Ah Zhu's room.

A white-haired man knelt in front of her, "Little master, someone visited the Lin residence last night."

Ah Zhu's delicate face was slightly cold, "Who?"

The white-haired man said ashamedly: "This subordinate is incompetent. I only know that there were three people who came last night. One entered the Lin mansion, and the other two were guarding outside. Those three were extremely skilled, and they were not under my subordinate. The subordinate was almost discovered, so I dare not He acted rashly and failed to see who was coming."

"Three people?" Ah Zhu frowned slightly, "One person entered the mansion, and two guards? Which direction did the person entering the mansion go?"

"The Lingbo Courtyard where the little master is." The white-haired man said: "The subordinates were worried that someone would be unfavorable to the little master, so they kept hiding nearby, but the strange thing is, that person didn't show up."

"Lingboyuan?" Azhu's expression changed suddenly, and he strode out, "You go, I'll come back to you if I need something!"

"Yes, little master." Following the words, a figure quickly disappeared from Ah Zhu's room like light.

Lu Xinyan was washing up when the door was suddenly pushed open, and Ah Zhu walked in anxiously.

"Azhu, what happened so early in the morning?" Lu Xinyan was startled seeing her in a hurry.

There seemed to be tears in Azhu's eyes, she walked in front of her, her mouth was aggrieved, "Sister, I dreamed that you were taken away last night!"

It turned out to be a dream, Lu Xinyan smiled and comforted, "Silly girl, take a good look, am I not in front of you now?"

"I'm worried." A Zhu murmured softly, glanced at Lu Xin's bright red lips, and shouted as if discovering a new land: "Hey, sister, your mouth seems to be swollen! It's even broken!"

Qingtong on the side looked over curiously, Lu Xinyan coughed lightly, and said calmly: "I got up to drink water in the middle of the night last night, I drank it in a hurry, and accidentally bit it."

"So that's how it is." Ah Zhu suddenly realized on the face, but her heart jumped with anger.

She knew that it must be that scoundrel Xiao Yichen who came here!
The white-haired man said that one person entered the mansion, and the two stayed outside. Ah Zhu immediately thought that it was Xiao Yichen, Qi Fei and Qiu Wuya.

Because according to common sense, if there are three people who want to come into the Lin Mansion to steal or look for things, one person must guard and two people come in, but they are the opposite, one person comes in and two people guard.

So Azhu's almost first reaction was that Xiao Yichen came in quietly to find Lu Xinyan.

Now seeing Lu Xinyan's slightly swollen lips and dodging eyes, Ah Zhu was absolutely sure.

Mad!That scoundrel, she must never let him take her sister away!

She was making up her mind secretly, and when she was thinking of countermeasures, a white hand stretched out in front of her eyes, "Azhu, go, come with me to wake up grandma."

Azhu immediately held her hand with a happy smile, "Yes."

The hand was soft and warm, and Ah Zhu's heart became more and more firm.

Can't let anyone take my sister away, anyone!
-

Su's other courtyard.

The weather is fine today, sunny and breezy.However, from the moment Su Zi stepped into the other courtyard, she felt that the atmosphere in the other courtyard was very strange.

In the past, although everyone was cautious, they all had flattering smiles on their faces, but today they were all trembling, and the smiles on their faces were so fake that they couldn't hold back.

Some of the weaker ones didn't even have a smile on their faces, they were frightened and uneasy.

Did something happen in this other courtyard that she didn't know about?
Su Zi stopped a little maid, "Xiaoyu..."

Xiaoyu, who was named, was shocked and knelt on the ground, trembling all over, "Third Miss, spare my life! Third Miss, spare my life! This servant doesn't know anything!"

Su Zi frowned, "What happened?"

Xiaoyu cried and repeated: "Miss San, please forgive me! This servant really doesn't know anything, please forgive me, Miss San!"

She said she didn't know anything, but that trembling little body betrayed her!
If you don't know anything, will you be so scared? !

Su Zi put on a straight face, "You are the maid of my Su family, how dare you hide from me what happened in the other courtyard of my Su family?"

Xiaoyu kowtowed violently in fright, her forehead was soon blue on the gravel road.

She cried: "I don't dare! I don't dare! Miss San, please spare me!"

Su Zi said: "Say it! I'll forgive you if I tell you, or I'll sell you right away!"

With a majestic cold shout, adding threats and lures, Xiaoyu had no choice but to recruit, and tremblingly said: "Miss San, the servants who served Mr. Yuan accidentally offended Mr. Yuan, and were beaten to death by two of them. Ms. Yuan Tell the servants to shut up and keep their mouths shut, or they will cut off their tongues! Third Miss, please, don't let Miss Yuan know that the servants said it."

Yuan Wei actually beat someone to death in the other courtyard of the Su family?

Su Zi's brows were furrowed tightly, it's okay for two people to die, but everyone in other courtyards knew that Yuan Wei was a distinguished guest, so there was no time to flatter him, so how could they dare to neglect him?
The only possibility is that Yuan Wei was in a bad mood, borrowed someone to vent his anger, accidentally overdid it, and killed him.

"I see, I won't say anything, go get busy."

"Thank you Miss San, thank you Miss San." Xiaoyu thanked her gratefully.

After Su Zi asked Xiaoyu to leave, she walked towards the courtyard where Yuan Xian'er was.

At this time Yuan Xian'er was lying powerlessly on the bed when she heard the maid call, "Miss, Miss Su is here."

Yuan Xian'er struggled to sit up, when Su Zi just walked in, hurriedly stepped forward to hold her down, "Sister Xian'er, lie down quickly, don't get up if you feel uncomfortable, I'm not an outsider."

"I'm in good health, and I don't feel uncomfortable." Yuan Xian'er sat up on Su Zi's hand, "It's the elder brother..."

Su Zi heard what Ayu said just now, and she knew what Yuan Xian'er was worried about, but she pretended not to know, and asked, "What's wrong with Brother Yuan?"

"Brother, he..." Yuan Xian'er hesitated to speak, with a tangled and angry expression on his face, and finally wrote lightly: "Brother, he was in a bad mood, and it happened that two of his servants were not serving him properly. In a fit of anger, elder brother killed them." gone."

"It's just two servants, just pay some money to their family." Su Zi said with a smile: "It's a small matter, sister Xianer doesn't need to worry."

"Why am I worried about those two servants?" Yuan Xian'er finally couldn't help it, "It's the eldest brother, he is too shameful!"

Su Zi pretended to be puzzled and said, "Why did Sister Xian'er say such a thing?"

"You know about this, so I won't hide it from you. Ever since I saw a woman on the flower boat, my eldest brother has been obsessed with it, and asked people to search for it in Jianglin. I have been looking for it for a few days, but I have not found it. My eldest brother is worried about that. The girl left Jiang Lin, and she was never seen again, so she was very anxious. She didn't like anything, at least she would beat and scold her, and if she moved, she would kill her directly."

Yuan Xian'er spit out: "That day, he found a pair of Qiao brothers and sisters, who were quite compatible in every way, but the eldest brother insisted that they were not, and blamed him for wasting his time, and scratched the faces of the two brothers and sisters in a fit of anger."

Su Zi really didn't know about this matter, it's okay to kill two servants in the house, but if it hurts outsiders and is exposed, it's not a big deal, but trouble is inevitable!

Su Zi understood in her heart, but she also understood that she couldn't say this in front of Yuan Xian'er, so she comforted her: "Sister Xian'er, Brother Yuan is anxious, and acting impulsively in a hurry is understandable."

Yuan Xian'er snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter if he ruins other people's face or kills others, what does it have to do with me? But after he came back, he even took his anger out on me!"

This is the reason why Yuan Xian'er has been indignant!

The life and death of outsiders has nothing to do with her, but why can't you find someone, so you want to spread fire on her head?

Su Zi knew that Yuan Xian'er was used to being held in the hands of all men, and any disrespectful words or negligent attitude would make Yuan Xian'er very angry.

Yuan Wei has always been Yuan Xian'er's eldest brother, the two have had a good relationship since childhood, no matter how angry Yuan Wei is, how much can Yuan Wei get angry at her?

It's just that Yuan Xian'er is used to being flattered and can't stand it.

Su Zi knew it well, "Sister Xian'er, how about I try to persuade Big Brother Yuan, as I happen to be taking someone to Jiangnan Villa tomorrow, and they are always under Brother Yuan's subordinates, I think it's better to tell him in advance."

"I'll go with you." Yuan Xian'er felt very uncomfortable when she thought of Yuan Wei's attitude towards her these days. If she could see Yuan Wei getting angry with Su Zi, she would feel a lot more balanced in her heart, but she still said it nicely. If so, find a reasonable reason for your behavior to go together.

"Although we are relatives, if you and elder brother are alone in the same room, it will inevitably cause gossip."

Su Zi knew it in her heart, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Sister Xian'er."

The courtyard where Yuan Wei lived was full of air, and all the serving servants looked as if their parents had died, their sad faces were directly on their faces, and they couldn't even squeeze out a smile.

Even his own guards did not dare to say a word, for fear that Yuan Wei would be unhappy and cut them off to vent his anger.

When Su Zi and Yuan Xian'er appeared at the door, everyone's eyes lit up as if seeing a savior.

"Go down." Su Zi covered her nose.

The servants slipped faster than rabbits as if they were being pardoned.

Yuan Xian'er waved the handkerchief, trying to dispel the smell of wine.

Su Zi knocked on the door, "Brother Yuan!"

"Get out!" A hoarse roar came from inside.

Su Zi was taken aback and didn't give up, "Brother Yuan, it's me, sister Azi, and sister Xian'er and I have come to see you."

There was a few moments of silence inside, probably when the sound of rolling was called out earlier, it was Su Zi's voice that I didn't hear clearly.

Yuan Wei's voice was calmer now, "There's nothing to see, I want to rest, you go."

Su Zi said softly: "Brother Yuan, I'm sorry, I have something to ask for your help, can I hold you for a while?"

Yuan Wei and Su Zi have not known each other for a long time, because they are relatives, and Su Zi has a good relationship with Yuan Xian'er, so they have a good relationship with her.

Yuan Xianer is used to being coaxed by others, no matter what happens, she can only be coaxed by others, she will never regress, but Su Zi's temperament is completely different, her appearance is not bad, but she has no arrogance. He will be soft three points first, so that people can get along with her very comfortably, so Yuan Wei regards her as a half sister in his heart.

Of course Yuan Wei didn't know that Su Zi would be soft-spoken, generous and decent only when facing certain people.

Now Su Zi said in a low voice that she has something to ask for, even though Yuan Wei didn't want to talk about it, she held back her temper and said, "Come in."

　Thank you for the monthly pass!
