Chapter 173 I Want to Talk to You Alone
Yunting stopped, and a handsome face held back all the smiles. He slowly raised his eyes, and the woman standing leaning on the treasure cabinet came into view. There seemed to be a cold and sharp light passing through the depths of her pupils. , and then slowly became calm, like a lake with no waves.
At that moment, the world seemed to fall into silence.
All the noisy sounds in my ears disappeared, and there was only a charming and charming girl in front of me, and a gentle young man in white, which looked like the most beautiful scenery in the world.
Nan Xi watched this scene and calmly took a step back, retreating to a corner that was most suitable for watching the show and would not affect the progress of the protagonist's plot.
"Master Yun." Ye Qingcheng's eyebrows were tinged with charm, and the smile on the corner of his lips was full of bewitching. His voice was low and soft, with a unique sense of care, "How are you?"
The person coming is Yunting.
He stared at the woman who spoke silently. There was no special expression on his face. The silence only lasted for a moment. Then he smiled gently: "It's you."
Two words, plain and simple, swept away all emotions like the autumn wind.
He didn't pretend not to know her, nor did he show any emotions of love, hate or infatuation. Such a calm reaction was as if he just happened to see an old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time... Oh, maybe he wasn't even an old friend.
He was just an acquaintance, a dispensable passerby in life. It didn't matter. Because he knew him, he said hello politely.
That's all.
"It's me." Ye Qingcheng smiled and pointed to the open brocade box on the counter, "I want all these jewelry, please help me clear the place, shopkeeper."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he subconsciously looked at Yunting.
There were not many people in Moyu Pavilion, but the noble ladies had already noticed some subtle atmosphere. When they heard these words, they took the initiative to go out without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak, got on their carriages and headed back. Mansion.
Soon only Ye Qingcheng, Nan Xi, Yinyue, Yinshuang and Yunting were left in the building, as well as the shopkeeper of Yinlou.
"Ouyang, I have other things to do. You are responsible for entertaining the distinguished guests." Yunting told the shopkeeper calmly, "Remember to give the distinguished guests a discount."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
"Yunting, stop here." Ye Qingcheng spoke unhurriedly, his voice was light but filled with inexplicable pressure, "If you dare to step out of this door today, believe it or not, someone will come over in just one cup of tea." Collect the body for this princess?”
This princess?
Shopkeeper Ouyang turned to look at Ye Qingcheng in surprise. Is she a princess?
Looking at her age, she shouldn't be a princess from the Zhou royal family, so is she the princess from Shu who came to get married today?
What's going on?
Shouldn't the married princess be in the palace at this time? How could he still roam freely outside the palace and talk to men at will?
Yunting paused slightly, turned around slowly, and looked at Ye Qingcheng calmly: "Even if you want to die, you shouldn't come here, because no one will be responsible for your death."
"How can you see it?" Ye Qingcheng smiled casually, with enchanting eyebrows, "If I really die here, it will definitely cause a sensation in both countries. The Emperor of Zhou needs to give an explanation to Shu... If I am not wrong, Mo Yu The pavilion should be the property of the regent, right?"
Nan Xi was surprised and turned to look at Yin Yue.
Is Moyu Pavilion Rong Yu's property? How come she never knew?
Yinyue shook her head and whispered: "Jiuxiao Pavilion's power is spread all over the world, and each place has its own manager. I don't know how many properties in the Imperial City of Great Zhou belong to Jiuxiao Pavilion."
Yunting said calmly: "So what?"
"Not at all." Ye Qingcheng said indifferently, "It's just that the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty will soon know that the regent Rong Yu not only holds the power of 400,000 soldiers and horses, but also controls the wealth all over the world. Even the largest horse farm in Mianzhou is for him All in all, I believe that the emperor would not dare to touch the regent, but the regent would not be able to hide his rebellious intentions... Oh, by the way, his most trusted and loyal generals are the sons of powerful officials from the enemy country. I wonder what will happen if this news spreads. Will it affect the reputation of the regent? Will it cause the entire royal family of Da Zhou to attack him? "
Yinyue frowned and was about to speak, but Nan Xi, who had quick eyes and quick hands, covered her mouth in time.
Woohoo.
Yinyue turned to look at Nan Xi, with obvious anger in her eyes: Princess, this princess is so hateful, why don’t your subordinates teach her a lesson?
Nan Xi said calmly: "Just watch the show, why are you so excited?"
Yunting looked at Ye Qingcheng expressionlessly.
"I want to talk to you alone." Ye Qingcheng said in a tone that did not allow for refutation, "Now, immediately."
Yunting said calmly: "I have nothing to talk about with you."
Nothing to talk about?
Ye Qingcheng's red lips curved slightly: "I picked up a child three years ago. He was four years old. He was born with red lips and white teeth. He was very beautiful."
Yunting's face changed slightly.
"After raising her for three years, she is now seven years old." Ye Qingcheng lowered his eyes and slowly brushed his sleeves, "I heard that many dignitaries have some special hobbies. If such a beautiful child falls into the hands of these people - —”
Yunting gritted his teeth: "Where is he?"
Ye Qingcheng raised his eyes: "Will I tell you?"
Yunting's eyes were cold, and he stared at this charming woman for a long time. Then he turned and walked toward the back door of Moyu Pavilion: "Follow me."
Ye Qingcheng smiled faintly and turned to look at Nan Xi: "Princess, wait for me here for a moment."
Nan Xi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you can talk slowly, I'm not in a hurry."
Ye Qingcheng nodded, turned around and followed Yunting.
The shopkeeper had already closed the door, and now he was relieved. He made some tea and brought it to Nan Xi.
"Does this building belong to Rong Yu?"
Shopkeeper Ouyang nodded respectfully: "Yes. I didn't hide it from the princess on purpose, I hope the princess will forgive me."
"Forgive what?" Nan Xi didn't care, "I don't covet Rong Yu's property, and this matter has nothing to do with you, don't be nervous."
"Yes."
Nan Xi raised her lips and smiled softly: "But I have to ask Rong Yu when I go back, what does he mean? My mother-in-law has to pay money to buy jewelry here?"
Last time she spent a full 10,000 taels of silver to buy a bracelet.
Shopkeeper Ouyang had just put his heart at ease, and he broke into a cold sweat when he heard this.
After leaving the back door, a spacious courtyard appeared in front of him, with beautiful flower beds, exquisite attics, and long corridors winding around, and the environment was quiet and elegant.
"Yun Ting." Ye Qingcheng's voice was a little indifferent, unlike the leisurely manner in front of others just now, "What are you doing in Da Zhou?"
"I have my mission." Yun Ting said calmly, "It should have nothing to do with you."
No problem?
Ye Qingcheng's eyes were slightly cold, and her body flashed like lightning, blocking him in front of him in an instant, and stretched out her hand to press him against the edge of the pavilion: "Are you sure it has nothing to do with me?"
