Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 167 She Was Confused
After Xu Ye set off a trend of going into the mountains to hunt for treasures, the idle boys and buddies seemed to have found a new way to play. They went into the mountains every day very actively, and then brought back some messy things.Duke Jing's son became addicted to picking medicinal materials, and always felt that everything was worth a thousand gold, and that everything had been grown for thousands of years.Others have found their own joy too.

"...Let me tell you that Gu Changyan is not what she appears to be at all, she is just pretending, and she is using you." Ning Ying let go of her former arrogance, her body and spirit haggard, and no one can bear to see it.

"Stop saying that here, right?" Unlike before, this time there was really a girl who wanted to stop Ning Ying.

It's a pity that the current Ning Ying doesn't listen to any persuasion at all, and she doesn't care about the family's reputation, "She had a marriage contract with His Highness Prince Rui, why didn't it count in the end? Because she is a poisonous woman, she is jealous of Zhang Wanqing's The admiration of His Royal Highness, she planned to kill Zhang Wanqing at the empress's spring banquet. If it wasn't for her father and brother's sake, the emperor would have given her to death. She has a deep plan and just wants to use you to stand up. You want her to enter The Xu family, I will never agree...ah..."

Ning Ying was pinched by Xu Ye and fell heavily to the ground, and passed out on the spot.

"Wake her up." Xu Ye was not emotional.

Those present were all the children of the rich and powerful, and they had seen a lot in the world, but they never thought that Xu Ye would really care about Ning Ying.Those who knew nothing about the Spring Banquet case heard Ning Ying's sudden revelation, and were surprised that some believed it, while others had doubts about the truth.

The key lies in Xu Ye's attitude. Xu is a senior official in Dali Temple and a favorite minister of the emperor. The Xu family did not shy away from it. Does it mean that there is something hidden in the original entanglement?
But now is not the time to discuss, Xu Ye's entourage has already fetched a bucket of water from the water storage tank next to the arch after he gave the order.The servants of the Ning family knelt down and begged Xu Ye to let the master go. Of course, some people sneaked away to report to the other masters of Wuding County Prince's Mansion when the incident happened.

The water was mercilessly splashed on Ning Ying's head, she moaned and moved, Xu Ye drew a Japanese sword from his back and walked towards her, seeing that the blade was about to penetrate her neck, Zhao Yanran arrived in time, "Stop!"

Only then did Xu Ye's partners come to their senses, and one after another stepped forward and dragged him back, "Calm down, this is a palace, don't kill anyone."

"Yes, the emperor is here."

Unexpectedly, those young generals also helped Xu Ye.

"Brother Xu, forget it."

"Women love to speak quickly, don't be as knowledgeable as them."

Xu Ye looked as usual, but everyone could see that he was very unhappy.He glanced at everyone present, "How many of you have seen Cheng Fu? Has anyone spoken to her? Stand up."

There was an awkward silence all around.

"Look, don't you think it's ridiculous to define her without knowing who she is? The woman I like, Xu Ye, doesn't need you to meddle in her own business? Whether she is good or bad, I, Xu Ye, treat her as she is." people of life."

"It's ridiculous that you can't even be your own masters, and you still have the leisure to worry about others. Heh, do I know you well?" He put the Japanese sword back into its sheath.

The boys were greatly relieved, seeing that he had gone far away, they chased him out one after another. After all, the mountain still had to be entered.

That night, Xu Ye continued to sort out the harvest of the day with his friends, and Xu Ze leisurely came over with the words of Emperor Chengqi's reprimand, and saw this naive scene.It seemed that the son was not affected by what happened in the morning at all.

But after all, it is a fact that he will commit murder in the palace, so in the next few days, Xu Ye was sent to the Buddhist hall to think about his mistakes, and the mountain could not be entered. Not sad.

Murong Hui also quietly came over with a food box, thinking that Xu Ye couldn't eat well and sleep well, so she must be annoyed that she acted impulsively.What I saw was that Xu Ye was laying a bed under the Buddhist hall, with seven or eight food boxes of different sizes placed in the corners.

She heard someone coming from behind, but unfortunately there was only one exit here, if she turned back the same way, she would definitely meet someone who came.So he had no choice but to run into the Buddhist hall with his maid, and hide behind the Buddha statue in front of Xu Ye.

The one who came was two young generals, the taller one was Xu Mengzhi, the one who was half a head shorter, and the one with a clear scar on the left corner of his eyebrow was Liu Yuan. They were about the same age, and they were both descendants of generals who had served in the army for several generations.

"Brother Xu is so comfortable." Liu Yuan entered the door and casually pulled a futon and sat down.

Xu Ye gnawed on the fruit and sat on the bedding, flipping through the idle books that Cheng Fu had given him to pass the time, without looking at the two of them, "Why don't I change it with you?"

Xu Mengzhi laughed dryly, and sat down on his bedding, "Brother Xu, let's make peace."

"What did you do to offend my young master?" Xu Ye was still flipping through the book.

Xu Mengzhi looked up at the Buddha statue, and then said, "There were a lot of verbal offenses earlier, so don't take it to heart."

Liu Yuan echoed, "Yes, if you need brothers in the future, just ask."

Xu Ye nodded perfunctorily, "Understood, go back if you have nothing to do."

Xu Mengzhi and Liu Yuan looked at each other, not sure if the other party really didn't hold grudges, but the other party was obviously not in the mood to entertain the two of them, so it was not easy to stalk them.

"Then let's go first, and I'll bring you some food and wine later."

Xu Ye hummed.

After confirming that the two had left the small Buddhist hall, Murong Hui came out from behind the Buddha statue, clutching her chest and wishing she was lucky.Seeing that Xu Ye was still maintaining the previous posture, lazily flipping through the book and eating fruit, she approached, "Thank you Mr. Xu for keeping the little girl's name."

Xu Ye didn't even look at her, she was completely transparent, as if she didn't exist.

"Master Xu, I..."

His attitude made Murong Hui very uncomfortable, she had never met a man who didn't look at her directly.This man is too arrogant, but also too powerful to ignore.She felt that she was sick, and she cared so much about a man who was heartless and even disgusting.

She walked out of the Buddhist hall, thinking that Xu Ye would keep her, so she deliberately slowed down, but all the girls' expectations did not happen.She blushed with anger, and turned to go in to question the other party.The servants around her no longer allowed her to lower her figure like this, and half coaxed her away from the Buddhist hall.

****
An autumn hunt made Zhao Yanran and his wife feel like sitting on pins and needles every day.Especially Zhang Wanqing, her hatred for Cheng Fu overwhelmed her rationality, while Zhao Yanran's mood was much more complicated.He was embarrassed by everyone's probing gazes, and at the same time felt a little ashamed.He knew all the truth, and now seeing his wife's grandiose attitude of putting himself in the victim's position, he felt that his life was a joke.

In the past, he thought that Zhang Wanqing's nervousness and complaints were caused by her injustice and low self-esteem.Only now did he understand that what she feared deeply in her heart was that one day the truth would be revealed. She couldn't maintain the illusion created by herself and the Zhang family, and would lose everything she had now.That's why she and the Zhang family sent killers to Jinling again and again over the years.

Indeed, except for Cheng Han and Cheng Fu, even if the truth is revealed, nothing will change.Regrettably, they underestimated the vitality of the victim and the determination to risk his life for revenge.

"What should I do..." She threw herself into Zhao Yanran's arms and wept uncontrollably.

Zhao Yanran wanted to comfort her, but his throat seemed to be blocked by a plug, and he couldn't say anything. He found sadly that he could no longer treat this person like he used to.The previous oath, tenderness and sweetness, kept saying that she was the only one to be spoiled in this life, but what happened?
It turns out that my own will can't stand the test.

"My lord, my concubine, the capital is urgent."

The two temporarily suppressed their worries and let the person in.

"My lord, my concubine, the little prince is gone."

Zhang Wanqing was shocked, "What did you say?"

"Isn't the child in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Because both husband and wife had to accompany them, but the child was too young to be taken care of properly, so they were temporarily sent to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to be taken care of by Mrs. Zhang.

"How could so many people disappear?" Zhang Wanqing was furious.

"I don't know, I just heard that someone saw a woman carrying the little prince out of the mansion, and she disappeared. The most urgent thing for the prince and concubine is to find the little prince back."

Zhang Wanqing cried and grabbed Zhao Yanran's hand and said anxiously: "It must be her, it must be Gu Changyan, she came back to torture me. She came after me, why did you kidnap my child, what is the prince doing?" What to do..."

"If something happens to my son, I won't live anymore." She fell limply to the ground, weeping uncontrollably.

Zhao Yanran couldn't calm down at this time, but Zhang Wanqing had lost her mind, so he forced himself not to panic.

But who would lay hands on his child?His brothers who have ideas about the storage position will not be able to deal with a child.He thought about it, and combined with the rumors that Cheng Fu quietly returned to Beijing to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, he also thought that she was the only one who would be so outrageous.

"Return to Beijing, immediately."

Zhang Wanqing suddenly hugged his leg, "My lord, you have no right to let the Jingding Yamen arrest people."

"Arrest?" Zhao Yanran looked down at her.

"My lord, Han'er is in the hands of that bastard, we must not take it lightly, please report to His Majesty."

Zhao Yanran hesitated, "You want to arrest Cheng Fu?"

Zhang Wanqing couldn't understand why her husband hesitated all of a sudden. It was about the life and death of their child. He was still dawdling, "Han'er is in her hands, so how can I search without using the Jingding Yamen?"

The hot spring villa is also within the scope of the palace, even if it is fifteen miles away, it will take a little time to hurry.Zhao Yanran planned to go by himself, but Zhang Wanqing wanted to follow, so he had no choice but to take her with him in a carriage instead.

Although Emperor Chengqi was very tired of Zhang Wanqing turning the truth of the year upside down, thinking that he had done a perfect job and others were kept in the dark.But the most important thing now is the safety of the precious grandson.Although there are doubts about the feasibility of Cheng Fu's ability to take the child away from the heavily guarded Zhang family, finding the child is the most important thing. If he really wronged someone, he will give some rewards later and let Xu Ze go to appease him. Can calm down.

Thinking this way, he did the same, and ordered Feng Wenshi to lead people to surround the Cheng family, and arrest Cheng Fu for careful interrogation.

"This matter should not be announced in the palace. You should go back to Beijing to find your child."

"Your Majesty, Xu Chilie has a close relationship with Cheng Fu, and my daughter-in-law boldly guesses that he may also be involved." Zhao Yanran was about to get up, but Zhang Wanqing took two steps on her knees.

The corners of Emperor Chengqi's mouth curled up slightly, and he bent down to stare at her, "It's not impossible for me to lock up Xu Ye for torture, but can you husband and wife, right-hand man, bear the consequences?" Arresting Cheng Fu without evidence has violated the law, and now He also wanted to involve the son of a powerful official, but Emperor Chengqi only felt that she was unreasonable and didn't know the heights of heaven and earth.

If Cheng Fu was innocent, the couple would face a lot of troubles. If the Xu family was offended again, what Prince Rui's residence and the Zhang family would face would not be weak siblings, but Xu Ze's crazy revenge.

Zhao Yanran hurriedly said: "She is in a hurry and confused, father don't have to worry about her."

Zhang Wanqing still wanted to persevere, but was half dragged and half hugged away by Zhao Yanran.

After the couple walked away, Emperor Chengqi let out a long sigh of relief.He agreed to detain Cheng Fu first, not just to express his opinion in front of his son.Cheng Fu returned to Beijing quietly, and everyone would guess whether he had some ulterior purpose in this move.
