Chapter 43 Hit the bed
Li Xiuning was told by Cui'er's words, and her face turned red. "How do you know?"
As soon as he said that, Li Xiuning knew that Cui'er was cheating on her.
Li Xiuning reached out and grabbed Cui'er's neck: "Okay, you damn girl, how dare you plot against me?"
"Princess, please spare me, I will never dare to do it again!"
"Now I know to beg for mercy, hum, it's too late now!"
Li Xiuning reached out to scratch Cui'er's belly. Cui'er was tickling and had a boneless snake churning on the bed.
When the two of them had a full scent of incense sticks, they were sweating profusely.
Li Xiuning and Cui'er were lying on the bed, panting.
"Princess, are you afraid that the Crown Prince will dismiss Chen Langjun's official position?"
Li Xiuning said: "No, you think things too simply. Although the prince is the emperor of the Eastern Palace and is second only to his father, he cannot be willing to do something as he wants."
Cui'er said: "Princess, do you mean that the prince can't stop Chen Langjun's official?"
"This is natural!" Li Xiuning said: "Since the defeat of King Qianshuiyuan of Qin, the Western Qin army has been as powerful as a rainbow, attacking the city and siege, and is arrogant. Chen Langjun and his team not only defended Jingyang City (not counting the people). They also annihilated the 3,000 troops from Zong Luohu to Jingyang City, allowing the Prince of Western Qin Xue Renguo to return to the death of the Tang Dynasty. This is the only outstanding place in our Tang Dynasty during this period. The father issued an order and issued an order to reward the general who was promoted. Now Chen Langjun has just taken office for less than a month, and there is no mistake in the job. If the prince is dismissed Chen Langjun, his father's place is not good, which will make the world think of our Tang Dynasty? Not to mention that Chen Langjun is not wrong, even if there is a mistake, it is not enough to say it. This will make the soldiers who fought bloody battles for the Tang Dynasty feel heartbroken."
Cui'er said, "Then...then... princess, what else are you worried about?"
Li Xiuning said: "If he is really dismissed from office, it will be a good thing. If he has no official position, I will transfer him to Princess Pingyang's Mansion to serve as a food order and give him a beggar chicken every day. It is not just about dismissal from office. There are many ways to do it. You don't understand it if you say it, just go to bed!"
"oh!"
Cui'er got up and blew out the candlelight in the dormitory one by one, and the whole bed fell into darkness.
Living in front of the wide bed, Li Xiuning still found it difficult to calm down.
Li Xiuning already knew the reason for the conflict between Chen Ying and Li Xiaoguang. It was because of two maids. Although Lu Zhu and Hong Xiu looked pure and lovely, they were far from being as beautiful as the world. They were just the same twins, which made people feel strange. Moreover, when Li Xiuning asked them to serve in the bathroom, she clearly saw that they were wearing gongshi.
Chen Ying actually punished the founding marquis for the sake of the two maids. With this courage, this responsibility was ten thousand times greater than that of Prince Chai.
Li Xiuning actually didn't know that she subconsciously compared Chen Ying with Chai Shao. The result of this comparison is that the more Chai Shao is, the worse it is.
Li Xiuning fell asleep in a daze.
The next morning, Chen Ying got up in the morning and washed up, and ordered Zhao Yuanqiao to go to Xun's second mansion to take leave. When Chen Ying was having breakfast, Zhao Yuanqiao came back and reported to Chen Ying: "Xun's second mansion agreed to Chen Ying's leave!"
"As expected, Li Jiancheng began to stumbling with him!" Chen Ying thought silently. However, he did not regard the Xun Mansion as the real foundation for his success. The Xun Mansion Zhe Chong Duwei was just a transitional official position, and it would be best if he left Chang'an in the future.
Chen Ying responded lightly and said, "Get the time to have a meal!"
When Chen Ying hurriedly had dinner and asked the coachman Lao Zhou to get on the carriage, he was about to visit the shopkeeper Xu at Xuji Inn. When Chen Ying stepped on the carriage and was about to leave the house, Li Chuqi trotted all the way and said panting: "Langjun, Miss Lan'er is awake!"
Chen Ying rushed into the west wing and looked at Lan'er's hands and wounds on her body, but her pretty face was bloodless.
"Lan'er, do you feel better?"
Lan'er's eyes were empty and she had no reaction.
Chen Ying stepped forward and touched her forehead with his hands. He found that Lan'er's forehead was slightly high and normal. Chen Ying knew that the wound was not infected. "It's okay, fortunately, Lan'er, you can rest assured to recover from this revenge. I will definitely avenge you. At that time, no one of them will run away."
Lan'er never responded.
Chen Ying sighed inwardly that Lan'er's injury was only one aspect, and I'm afraid that the trauma of her mind would not improve so easily. After all, her experience is an indelible nightmare for any woman.
The four maids of Xu's mansion were originally named after the four rough maids. Xu Jingzong tried to save trouble and was directly named after them in the southeast, southwest and northwest. Chen Ying asked the oldest to take care of Lan'er.
After settling down Lan'er, Chen Ying rushed to Xuji Inn at six o'clock, which was equivalent to 10:30 in the later generations. However, in this era, people were still accustomed to two meals. At three o'clock, guests began to eat in the inn restaurants. The servants at Xuji Inn were busy taking care of the guests.
Seeing Chen Ying and Liang Zan come in, Xu Erniang, the handsome female shopkeeper of Xu Ji Inn, quickly came up and said, "I told you why the magpies were chirping this morning. It turned out that Chen Langjun was here. Should Chen Langjun stay in a hotel or have a meal?"
Chen Ying smiled slightly and said, "I have something important to find Manager Xu!"
Xu Erniang was stunned, with a look of confusion on her face: "What's the matter with Mr. Chen looking for me?"
Chen Ying said: "This matter will be difficult to explain clearly for a while. Let's do this. Is there a quiet place to talk about things?"
"Please follow me!"
Xu Erniang led Chen Ying through the restaurant lobby and to the backyard guest room. There were two small ear rooms at the north end. Chen Ying also understood the layout of the courtyard houses of this era at this time. This should be the servant room to take care of the back door. The ear room is not large in size, relatively low in size, and the window is less than three feet square. Even now, it feels a little dim when entering the room.
Chen used his eyes to look at the hut. Against the north wall was a row of simple closets, with layers of tents and books in it. On the window was a long desk that was about six feet long. In addition to pens, ink, paper, inkstone and calculation sheets, there was no other debris on the desk. The desk table was spotless. A pink curtain could be seen behind it.
Chen Ying thought to himself: "Is this the boudoir of Manager Xu?"
Xu Erniang said uneasyly: "Although this place is small, it is quiet if you don't see any foreign guests!"
Chen Ying couldn't help but nodded and said, "Not bad!"
Xu Erniang was about to speak up and send someone to send tea.
"You're welcome." Chen Ying quickly stopped Xu Erniang and said, "Is Chen Ying here to discuss a deal with Manager Xu?"
"Oh?" Xu Erniang smiled slightly and said, "Do you want to take care of the business of the shop? Thank you so much for your good wishes..."
Chen Ying pondered for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper Xu thought how much can Xuji Inn be worth?"
Xu Erniang's face turned cold and she said unhappy: "What do you mean? No matter how much money you pay, Xu Ji will not sell it!"
Chen Ying said: "Shopkeeper Xu, don't worry, can you listen to me finish your words first?"
"We have nothing to say, go, go!" Since Xu Erniang was driven out of her in-laws' house, this small shop was her home and her lifeblood. Xu Erniang got up and pulled Chen Ying's sleeves and pushed Chen Ying out with force.
Chen Ying had no choice but to get up and said, "Shopkeeper Xu, listen to me, you heard!"
"If you don't listen, you won't listen!"
"Just one sentence, leave after you finish speaking!"
"Get out!" Xu Erniang immediately started to spit out.
Seeing that Chen Ying could not be pulled, he shouted at the outside of the door, "Liuzi, fat man, Liuzi, fat man, come here quickly, come and beat him out..."
Chen Ying was immediately angry, and pressed Xu Erniang against Hu's bed (Mazouzi) with both arms.
Xu Erniang struggled, not to see that Chen Ying seemed skinny and weak. However, she was not weak, and Chen Ying didn't know what was going on. Maybe it was because of the time travel and rebirth that changed. Not to mention Xu Erniang, a woman, was not as strong as Chen Ying.
Seeing that Xu Erniang couldn't break free, she opened her mouth and bit Chen Ying's right arm that was pressed on her shoulder.
"Ouch..." Chen Ying was in pain and couldn't help but let go of Xu Erniang.
Xu Erniang suddenly became quiet.
Chen Ying rolled up his sleeves and saw a row of clear tooth marks that had already sprinkled red blood.
Xu Erniang originally showed a little guilty look on her face, but when Chen Ying looked at her, her face immediately became faster than reading the book, and she immediately became fierce: "You deserve it, you know how to bully me..."
"Your temper is too bad, you have to listen to me finish your words?"
"What do you want to say? Even if you say it out loud, Xu Ji Inn will never sell it!"
"I didn't say I wanted to buy it!" Chen Ying said laughingly: "I just saw that your shop is too dilapidated and the decoration is not high-end. I just entertain ordinary people and porters. If you change the store's door, repaint, and replace all the old tables, chairs and beds, the business will definitely be better than it is now..."
Xu Erniang's tone suddenly softened: "Then you don't explain it clearly..."
"I'm still blaming me, have you let me say it?" Chen Ying said: "I happen to have a spare money in my hand and want to invest in your Xuji Inn!"
Xu Erniang realized the misunderstanding at this time, so she stepped forward and pulled Chen Ying's arm, and asked with concern: "Does it still hurt?"
The fat chef and Xiao Liuzi in the Hong Ke Inn in Xu Ji Inn ran to the ear room with a stick with a hand and looked nervous. They were about to rush in, just looking at Xu Erniang measuring Chen Ying's arm with shame.
In the eyes of Xiaoliu and Fatty, Xu Erniang looked at the posture of Chen Ying and was ambiguous.
Xiao Liuzi was about to yell: "Thieves"
The fat chef had quick eyes and quick hands. He covered Xiao Liuzi's mouth and pulled Xiao Liuzi aside.
"Fatty, why are you pulling me? Didn't you hear the shopkeeper call me and call me out?"
