People in the Tang Dynasty, Jian'an style

I dug a few times, but found nothing.

give up.

I dug a few more times, but still nothing.

Soon, her expensive long dress was covered with mud, but Changsun Wugou seemed not to notice and was still searching desperately.

Li Shimin was about to speak, but was suddenly grabbed by Concubine Yang, who said pitifully:

"My Lord, my sister seems..."

Li Shimin was stunned, and then looked at Zhangsun Wugou, as if he had indeed seen a madman.

"Guanyin Bi, Guanyin Bi." He shouted a few times, but got no response.

"Your Highness, don't!" Concubine Yang shouted again, "My sister seems to be crazy, Your Highness, you have to be careful..."

The implication is very clear. Your Majesty, you are a son of a wealthy family and you cannot sit idle in the hall. Don't be hurt by this crazy woman.

Li Shimin hesitated for a moment—he really hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Jier, don't talk nonsense. Guanyinbi was just angry for a moment, and she will be fine after it passes."

As he said this, he took a few steps forward, snatched the shovel from Changsun Wugou's hand, threw it far away, then, despite her resistance, he carried her on his shoulders and turned away.

Yang Fei: “…”

I knew that the prince couldn't do anything to this bitch!

However, just when Li Shimin passed by her, Concubine Yang saw the apologetic look he gave her, and she immediately became cheerful again.

"You, you, you, and all of you, restore this place to its original state immediately. Han Qiao, Han Qiao?"

Concubine Yang shouted with full confidence.

"The maid is here." Han Qiao ran over quickly, "What do you want, Madam?"

"You..." Concubine Yang resisted the urge to ask, "Go find the internal steward and ask him to come over here right away."

"promise."

The internal steward in charge of the palace's affairs soon arrived, and Concubine Yang said arrogantly, "Now, this place is no longer habitable. You immediately clean up Wushuang Garden for me. I will stay there tonight."

The housekeeper was stunned: "Wushuang Garden? Your Majesty, that is the favorite garden of the princess. If you want to live there, you must let me report to the princess, and then..."

Snapped--

With a crisp sound, the internal steward received a heavy slap on the face.

Concubine Yang's face turned red with anger. She pointed at him and cursed, "You old dog, are you qualified to say this to me? I don't believe it. Sister Changsun and I are like sisters. How can she object to me living in the same garden with her? You old dog, dare you use Sister Changsun to pressure me? I think you are tired of living!"

"Someone is coming——"

Several servants came over quickly and listened to the order with their hands lowered.

Concubine Yang didn't even look at the housekeeper: "Drag this old dog who is disrespectful to me away and beat him to death. Oh, and the long-servant of the King of Wei, he loves to gossip, so pull out his tongue, break his limbs, and drive him out of the palace."

She is the victim now, and it is time for her to occupy the moral high ground. If she doesn't use her power to her advantage, is she waiting for it to expire?

The servants were also sensible. They pounced on him like wolves and tigers and dragged the steward away.

"Your Majesty, please spare your life, Your Majesty, please spare your life!"

"What are you screaming about?" A servant kicked the steward in the face, and several teeth spurted out along with blood.

"Hurry up, you guys are so slow. Humph, you are really a bunch of useless people!" Yang Fei snorted and raised her chin, "Han Qiao, follow me to Wushuang Garden."

"promise."

……

The newly appointed internal steward cleaned up Wushuang Garden as quickly as possible and provided it for Concubine Yang to live in.

After sending away irrelevant people and instructing them not to enter without permission, Concubine Yang sat on the chair and looked at Han Qiao with cold eyes.

The difference from the past is that if she looked at him like this before, Han Qiao would have already knelt on the ground, trembling like a quail.

But now, she had a smile in her eyes and looked at Concubine Yang without fear.

Concubine Yang knew in her heart that if she was not crazy, then she was confident enough to go against her.

"Han Qiao, if you have anything to say, can't we just speak frankly?"

Concubine Yang spoke first: "You should know that I treat you very well, just like a sister, so why do you want to frame me?"

"My lady, I don't understand what you are saying." Han Qiao shook her head, as if she really didn't know what she was talking about.

Concubine Yang snorted, "Hmph, don't play dumb with me. Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? I remember there is no one else in your family, only you. What is the reason for you to do this?"

"If you want to find a good family, then I can ask the prince to give you your indenture and give you a generous dowry. What do you think?"

Han Qiao shook her head: "Madam, you are wrong. I don't want anything. You underestimate me too much."

Concubine Yang was not afraid that Han Qiao had too high demands, but she was afraid that she had no demands at all.

Her face was filled with anger, and she glared at her fiercely: "Are you trying to use this as an excuse to write about me?"

"No, Madam, how could I have the courage to do that?" Han Qiao bowed slightly, and then said in a low voice, "Wait until tonight, Madam, don't close the window."

"Then you will understand everything."

After saying this, she turned and left without waiting for Concubine Yang to speak.

The sunlight shone on his body, making him feel warm. Han Qiao let out a long breath and opened his arms.

As if to embrace this hard-earned warmth.

Chapter 42: Jill, you don’t want others to know about those things, right?

The night is deep.

At this time, lights were gradually lit in various houses. The servants had finished their work and returned to their rooms to rest, leaving Wushuang Garden in complete silence.

There was a pretty person standing in the window. There was a candle in front of the window. The candlelight reflected her colorful clothes like clouds and mist, and her graceful figure was also looming, which was extremely tempting. It was Yang Fei.

She had been standing in front of the window, waiting for a long time, but she never saw the mastermind that Han Qiao mentioned appear.

At this time, Concubine Yang had calmed down a lot - she knew that the man came to see her just to gain benefits from her.

She is not afraid of the other party's greed, but she is afraid that the other party will not speak up.

However, after waiting for two hours, no one showed up, which made Concubine Yang feel more and more uneasy.

Could it be that no one is coming at all, and Han Qiao is just deliberately tricking me?

At this moment, Concubine Yang suddenly found a figure appearing in her sight.

The figure was so agile and quick that Concubine Yang even thought she had seen it wrong.

But after a few breaths, her expression turned into shock, her eyes full of disbelief.

It was him!

The person who came was Li Wenbin. He deliberately chose to come so late just to make Concubine Yang wait anxiously.

"Wen Bin has seen Concubine Yang. The night is long and I have no desire to sleep. Could it be that Concubine Yang can't sleep either?"

Li Wenbin saluted with his arms crossed and asked.

Haha, why am I standing here instead of sleeping, don’t you know yet?

This kid, I didn't expect him to do so much without making any noise, he really can't be underestimated...

"Wenbin, why are you coming to my garden so late at night?" Concubine Yang asked softly.

"Isn't this the princess' garden?" Li Wenbin pretended to know nothing and asked in astonishment, "How come it suddenly became yours, Concubine Yang?"

"Okay, stop pretending to be confused and come in quickly."

Concubine Yang snorted coldly.

"This is not good..." Li Wenbin looked embarrassed, "It's so late, and we are alone, what should I do..."

Although he said this, he walked in through the main gate without any courtesy, which made Yang Fei furious.

She closed the window, sat down lazily in front of the desk, and looked at Li Wenbin with her eyes slightly raised.

She was lying on a beauty couch, with a desk in front of her and an exquisite glass lamp on the desk.

The room was fully equipped with a spring stool, a small table, an incense burner, a standing mirror, a gauze curtain, a couch, a gauze quilt, and embroidered pillows. It was decorated in an unusually gorgeous and comfortable manner, and had more of the flavor of a girl's boudoir than the quiet and elegant style of Wan'er's room.

"Come here and sit down."

Yang Fei pointed to the opposite side of the low table and said.

"Thank you, Empress Yang." Then, Li Wenbin sat down next to her without any hesitation.

Yang Fei: “…”

"You are so bold, Li Wenbin." Concubine Yang was furious. "Don't you know your own identity? How dare you sit next to me? You should know that I am your..."

Li Wenbin interrupted her without any hesitation: "You are a woman and I am a man, of course I know. And..."

"And what?"

"And you, my lady, are a lonely, mature and graceful woman in your boudoir; while I am a strong man who is good at curing all kinds of diseases!"

"Good at curing all kinds of diseases?" Concubine Yang sneered, "How come I don't know? When did you become a miracle doctor?"

Li Wenbin suddenly put his mouth close to her ear and said, "My queen, don't you believe it? You know, I specialize in treating women. All the women I have treated are full of energy and have no more secrets. Do you want to try it, my queen?"

“That’s enough!” Concubine Yang stood up. “Get out of here now. I can pretend that what you just said never happened. Otherwise, I…”

She couldn't continue speaking because Li Wenbin suddenly had a yellow talisman in his hand.

"You, you, you, what do you mean?" Yang Fei bit her lower lip and asked with difficulty.

"I thought Concubine Yang was very smart, but now I know that she is just a fool!" Li Wenbin sneered, "Even now, she still wants to gain the upper hand. Yang Jier, have you ever thought about a question?"

"What, what's the problem?" Concubine Yang's face turned pale.

"Are you still qualified to bargain with me?" Li Wenbin looked at her with disdain. "You want to bargain with me, but do you have anything that can threaten me? And what about me? I have something in my hand that can make you go from heaven to hell in an instant. What can you use to fight me?"

Concubine Yang's body went limp and she collapsed on the couch, her face grim and she could no longer speak.

Li Wenbin slowly folded the talisman paper into a paper airplane, and then asked, "Madam Yang Fei, what do you think?"

"You win!" Yang Fei laughed bitterly and finally gave up struggling.

From the time Li Wenbin came in until now, she has been trying to take the initiative in the negotiations, but Li Wenbin didn't give her this opportunity at all. He just slid in from the front and blocked all her words.

Just as Li Wenbin said just now - he simply didn't have enough to fight him.

Since we can't win, there is only one way left.

Concubine Yang raised her delicate hand and poured a cup of tea for Li Wenbin: "Wenbin, try this tea."

Li Wenbin could never accept the way people in the Tang Dynasty drank tea - grind the tea into very fine powder, use a bamboo brush to beat out dark green foam in a black porcelain cup, add onions and ginger, and carefully sprinkle a little finely ground nutmeg powder.

That’s not all, you actually have to add salt and a small spoonful of mutton fat?

The smell of grass, sheep, green onion and ginger, the bitterness of tea, the saltiness of salt mixed with the spice of nutmeg almost made Li Wenbin vomit.

Damn, what you gave me to drink was actually poison, right?

Looking at Li Wenbin drinking like a cow, Concubine Yang felt contempt in her heart.

It's like a cow chewing a peony!

How can you drink such wonderful sencha in one gulp?

You need to slowly savor the changes in the various flavors and experience the fun in it carefully. If you don't know its wonderful uses, it would be like a thirsty horse rushing to a spring, which is really a disgrace to society.

He is indeed an illegitimate child!

Seeing that Concubine Yang wanted to pour tea for him, Li Wenbin stopped her.

"Okay, Concubine Yang, it's time for us to get down to business."

Concubine Yang immediately sat up straight and waited for him to put forward his conditions.

"No need to do that. My conditions are actually very simple."

As Li Wenbin spoke, his hand had already reached for her belt.

Yang Fei subconsciously wanted to resist, but she heard Li Wenbin shouting, "Jier, you don't want your father to know about your bad deeds, right?"

Concubine Yang's heart trembled, she sighed inwardly, and dared not resist anymore.
