Chapter 191: He has never done these things. He frowned slightly, and when he asked, his heart jumped. He turned around and chased in the direction where Mo Yi had just left. Mo Yi chased for most of the way, and even left Chengnan Street, but he didn't see even a footprint. Just when he didn't know what to do, he heard the sound of fighting coming from the other side of the wall. His eyes turned cold, and he was about to climb the wall to check, but his shoulders suddenly sank. He was about to fight back, but he heard the man behind him lower his voice and said, "Don't act rashly." "Master!" He turned around in surprise and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you chasing someone?" "We were fooled." Xie Cheng said coldly, "Did you find anything along the way?" "No!" Mo Yi shook his head, "I don't know where that man took Miss Tang." Xie Cheng frowned when he heard that, "Go up and see what's going on the other side." Mo Yi nodded , and just as he was about to climb up, he was pulled down by Xie Cheng again, "Go to a farther place." Mo Yi understood, and the two of them hurriedly went around to another place, and then climbed over the wall and approached the source of the sound. "Master, capture him quickly!" "He has extraordinary martial arts skills. Even if he brings someone with him, we are still no match for him." A familiar voice came through, Mo Yi was surprised, but Xie Cheng frowned. "Oh no, he's going to escape!" Mo Qing shouted when he saw the black shadow carrying the person away. Chen Luo gritted his teeth and said to him, "You go to Xie Mansion to inform Xie Cheng, I'll go after him." After that, just as he was about to leave, he saw a slender figure passing over them, and then quickly chased after him. Chen Luo looked at the receding back, and his body couldn't help but stiffen. Mo Yi came out from the corner and glanced at Chen Luo with a complicated expression. "Brother!" Mo Qing was surprised. He pointed at the figure that had just left and said, "Was that Lord Xie Cheng?" "Yeah." Mo Yi responded indifferently and flew after him. Mo Qing glanced at Chen Luo who was silent, and asked after a moment: "Master, are we still going to chase him?" "No need." Chen Luo retracted his gaze and said in a light voice: "Since he is chasing us, let's go back. We have been out for too long. It's time to go back to Dark Night City." After he said that, he turned and walked out of the alley. Mo Qing looked at the direction where Mo Yi left, hesitated for a moment, and still followed Chen Luo's footsteps and left the alley. When Tang Xi woke up, she found that she was being carried forward. She frowned slightly, looking very annoyed. Damn, she was poisoned again because of a moment of carelessness. The speed of this person's escape was so fast that she couldn't see the surroundings clearly, and she didn't know where this person's destination was. She lowered her eyes to look at the man's robe, but found that the color of this person's robe was almost exactly the same as that of the scholar who bumped into her on the street. She was shocked. Could it be that the person who bumped into her was not arranged by Mo Yi? She was afraid that this person would find out that she was awake, so she even unconsciously slowed down her breathing. The man carried her around in many turns until they stopped in front of a remote courtyard. He looked around and made sure that no one was there before he kicked the door open and walked in, then bolted it. He carried Tang Xi into a small room and threw her on the couch. Tang Xi was thrown so hard that she couldn't help but cry out in pain. "Oh?" The scholar was surprised, "You woke up so soon?" He sat in front of the couch, propped up his chin and looked at Tang Xi who was rubbing her waist, and said in a wicked voice: "You are the first one who woke up the fastest after being poisoned by my poison. You really deserve to be the one favored by City Lord Xie." "One or two people like to say that." Tang Xi muttered, climbed up and sat up, looked at the scholar calmly and said: "Are you the rapist?" "Huh?" The scholar chuckled, "rapist? I have never done such things." (End of this chapter)
Chapter 192 Little Lover Tang Xi frowned, always feeling that this scholar had some evil spirit. The scholar put his hair behind his ears, and saw the skin peeling off, revealing a very beautiful face. The black hair was draped over the shoulders, the face was powdered, the lips were painted with rouge, the eyes were like phoenixes, and the nose was like jade. He looked even more beautiful than a woman. "Are you stunned?" The scholar raised a wicked smile, stretched out his hand to pinch Tang Xi's jaw, but she turned her head away. "Hmm?" The scholar raised his eyes slightly, half lying on the edge of the couch, with a smile on his lips, and asked: "What? Am I not good-looking?" Tang Xi turned her head, looked at him calmly and said: "I am not interested in the same sex." The scholar was stunned, as if he didn't understand what she meant, "What do you mean, girl?" Tang Xi imitated his evil smile, curled her lips and said: "A grown man looks like a woman, I am not interested in you." "Oh?" The scholar was not angry, but became interested, "Then what kind do you like?" "Why should I tell you?" Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and asked back. Although she is awake now, her body is still a little weak. I don't know what medicine this guy gave her. It has been so long, and her body has not fully recovered. If she escapes now, it will be a dead end. It is better to talk to this guy and find a way to escape after her body recovers. "I know what kind you like." The scholar pondered and said: "Is it like City Lord Xie?" Tang Xi glanced at him and said nothing. The scholar sighed, "Did I guess it right?" He smiled, then stood up and turned his back, fiddling with something. When he turned back, Tang Xi looked at him in astonishment. "Finally there's a reaction?" The scholar smiled, supported the bed with both hands, and leaned close to her and whispered, "Looking at this face, do you feel your heart beating fast?" His face was no longer the same as before, but a face that looked exactly like Xie Cheng's. However, Xie Cheng's facial expressions were not as rich as his. "Why did you want to harm those two girls?" Tang Xi changed the subject. "I harmed them?" The scholar frowned, "This girl wronged me." "Was she wronged you?" Tang Xi snorted coldly, "Two girls were defiled and hanged themselves at the same time. Wasn't it you who did it?" "That's not my fault!" A disdainful smile spread across the corners of the scholar's lips, "As for the one in the palace, I was just being hunted by someone, and I happened to hide in her boudoir. When she saw me, she thought she saw a fairy and threw herself into my arms. I didn't even touch her." " Didn't touch her?" Tang Xi didn't believe it, "Then what about the other Miss Feng?" "Her?" The scholar looked disgusted, "The reason I came here this time is that I heard that there was a century-old ginseng in the Feng Mansion, and I wanted to steal it for medicine. But when I passed by, I saw the girl in the Feng Mansion and a man doing something shameful, and I seemed to have accidentally alarmed City Lord Xie's shadow guard, so in order to avoid trouble, I left first." Tang Xi snorted coldly, "You still dare to quibble." "People like them are worthy of being called beauties? They are not even worthy of carrying my shoes," the scholar smiled wickedly and moved closer to her, "Don't worry, girl, I never force you." Tang Xi moved back again, staring at him with a smile, if she didn't force you, how could she be here? "Don't be nervous," the scholar waved his hand, "The reason I kidnapped you is to meet your lover." Tang Xi rolled his eyes at him, "I don't have a lover." "No?" The scholar sighed lightly, "Could it be that City Lord Xie is not your lover?" Tang Xi stared at his face and frowned, "Please change your face." The scholar sighed twice again, "You said he is not your lover, but now you have protected him." Tang Xi was too lazy to pay attention to him and simply shut up. "What? Nothing to say? Admit it?" The scholar snorted, "You women are all the same, you like to say one thing and mean another." Tang Xi stared at him straight. If he wasn't wearing the same mask as Xie Cheng, she would have punched him. Although she knew it wasn't the real Xie Cheng, she still couldn't use heavy hands to hit him, and she didn't dare to use light hands either. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 193 If you want to know, guess it yourself. She sat for a while, feeling that her body was gradually returning to normal, and then she got up and prepared to get off the bed. A flash of surprise flashed across the scholar's eyes, and he narrowed his eyes and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you?" Tang Xi glanced at him, feeling a little puzzled. "Didn't you kidnap me? How dare you ask me?" She hadn't even asked him yet, but he had the nerve to ask her. The scholar looked at her coldly and said, "My poison can only be cured by people who are good at medicine and poison. Who are you?" Tang Xi smiled slightly, pushed him away, and said in a cold voice, "If you want to know, guess it yourself." The scholar narrowed his eyes, "It is rumored that City Lord Xie has a little genius doctor around him, about thirteen or fourteen years old, and a rare little beauty. If I guess correctly, you are that little genius doctor?" "There is no prize for guessing right." Tang Xi said, walking towards the door. The scholar sneered, "You'd better stay here obediently until your lover comes back." As he said this, he stretched out his hand to grab Tang Xi, but she saw her eyes suddenly turned cold, and she swung her hand hard, and his hand was slapped away heavily. "Oh?" The scholar looked at the red on the back of his hand, and his eyebrows raised slightly. Tang Xi pulled the bolt and opened the door. "You want to leave before answering my question?" The scholar dodged and stood in front of her. Tang Xi stopped, looked at him calmly and asked, "What do you want?" The scholar looked at her directly and said, "Answer my question." "What if I don't answer?" Tang Xi asked coldly. The scholar hooked his lips, "Then you can't leave here." "Really?" As soon as Tang Xi finished speaking, he quickly pulled out the bolt and swung it hard. The scholar stretched out his hand to block, Tang Xi took two steps back, used the bolt as a sword, and fought with the scholar for several moves. As the scholar accepted the attack, his eyes flashed with shock. A teenage girl was so skilled, much better than the two he met in the alley. Fortunately, Chen Luo and Mo Qing didn't have the ability to read minds, otherwise they would have vomited blood. Here, Xie Cheng and Mo Yi, who had already chased after them, went around the surrounding yards and found nothing. When they were about to look elsewhere, they heard a "bang" sound, as if something was kicked open. The two quickly rushed to the source of the sound, only to see a man who looked exactly like Xie Cheng flying out, and Tang Xi also ran out with the door bolt, and the two fought in the yard. "It's Miss Tang! Who is he? Why is he with the master..." Mo Yi looked at Xie Cheng in surprise, only to see that he was also frowning. The scholar was kicked in the abdomen by Tang Xi. He groaned, covered his abdomen and stood there, laughing: "I haven't had such a good fight for a long time. I didn't expect the little girl to be so powerful!" "I didn't expect Miss Tang to be so secretive!" Mo Yi was very surprised, "I originally thought that she would only run away." Compared with Mo Yi's surprise, Xie Cheng was much calmer. After all, the little girl said that her master not only taught her medical skills, but also martial arts. However, the little girl's swordsmanship was beyond his expectations and was even more powerful than he imagined. The scholar sat casually under a big tree in the yard and said to the direction where the two were hiding: "Since you are here, don't hide on the wall." Tang Xi, who was still holding the door bolt, heard the words and looked over in the direction of the scholar's sight. Mo Yi was stunned, "Master, he seems to have discovered us." Xie Cheng was too lazy to answer his nonsense, and jumped off the eaves and walked towards Tang Xi. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 194 Hua Xuan "City Lord!" Looking at Xie Cheng walking towards her, Tang Xi's eyes were instantly bright like stars. She dropped the bolt in her hand, trotted forward a few steps, then stood in front of Xie Cheng, looking at him with a smile. Xie Cheng looked at her silently for a moment, and saw that she was unharmed, and his heart suddenly relaxed. He reached out to tidy up her messy hair, and then asked in a low voice: "Are you feeling unwell?" Tang Xi smiled and shook her head, "No." "Yeah." Xie Cheng responded lightly, and looked at the scholar under the tree, only to see that the face that was exactly the same as his had now changed back to a face that charmed everyone. Tang Xi also turned around and saw that the scholar had regained his previous face that was more beautiful than a woman's. She didn't know if this was his true face. Xie Cheng said in a calm voice: "You are the Young Palace Master of the Poison Sect, the Thousand-Faced Scholar Hua Xuan." "Hmm~ smart!" Hua Xuan nodded and smiled evilly, "I brought you here today just to tell you that I have nothing to do with the two dead women. As for why they hanged themselves one after another, I'm not quite sure." Xie Cheng raised an eyebrow, "Are you the thief?" "It's me." Hua Xuan admitted very readily, "But I didn't go to steal beauties, I went to steal ginseng. Last month, I was ambushed by someone from the medical sect and was seriously injured. I heard from Lin Yuetong that there was a century-old ginseng in the Feng Mansion, so I wanted to steal it for medicine. Unfortunately, your shadow guard followed me before I found the thing." At the end, there was a hint of complaint in his tone. "You said it wasn't you?" Xie Cheng frowned, "But the two dead chose to hang themselves the next day after they met you, and left a suicide note saying that their innocence was tarnished and they were ashamed to face their future husbands." "How should I know?" Hua Xuan was disdainful, "How many beauties are there in my Poison Sect? Those two women are not even qualified to carry shoes in my Poison Sect. Would I be tempted by their beauty? It's simply nonsense." Tang Xi glanced at Hua Xuan, motioned Xie Cheng to lower his head, and then tiptoed to whisper a few words in his ear. Xie Cheng coughed lightly after hearing this, then looked at Hua Xuan and asked, "You said that when you passed by Feng Mansion, you saw Feng Shu having an affair with a man?" "That's right." Hua Xuan nodded. "Then do you still remember what that man looked like?" Xie Cheng asked. Hua Xuan snorted lightly, "It's pitch dark, how do I know what that man looks like?" Xie Cheng snorted coldly, "Since you can't tell me, how can I believe that it wasn't you who did it?" Hua Xuan frowned slightly. He was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "I didn't see clearly what the man looked like, but Miss Feng's maid should know." "Maid?" Xie Cheng frowned, "You mean, her maid knew that Feng Shu was having an affair?" "She was guarding the door for her girl, how could she not know?" Hua Xuan sneered, "I guess what happened to me made Miss Feng feel guilty, or maybe, the girl didn't really hang herself." Xie Cheng raised his starry eyes slightly, "You mean, Feng Shu didn't commit suicide, but was murdered?" "I'm just guessing." Hua Xuan leaned against the tree and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I didn't kill her." Xie Cheng glanced at Mo Yi who was standing aside, and said in a light voice, "You go back to the government office quickly and ask someone to go to the Feng Mansion and bring all the maids around Feng Shu to the government office." "Yes!" Mo Yi replied and left. Hua Xuan looked at Tang Xi and said twice, "Are you happy to see your lover?" Tang Xi's face turned dry, and he glared at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" (End of this chapter)
Chapter 195 Trial (1) "You still say that City Lord Xie is not your lover," Hua Xuan chuckled. "Your eyes light up when you see City Lord Xie coming. You really say one thing and mean another." "I don't know what you are talking about." Tang Xi said, and turned away. Lover? Xie Cheng's lips curled up slightly. He looked at Hua Xuan and said, "Before the matter is clear, please come with us, Mr. Hua." "I can go with you, but you can't hand me over before we get here." Xie Cheng nodded, "Okay." After hearing this, Hua Xuan stood up, patted the dust off his clothes, and walked over slowly. Seeing his attitude, Xie Cheng knew that he would not run away again. Xie Cheng turned around and whispered to Tang Xi, "Let's go." Tang Xi nodded and walked out of the yard with him. Halfway through the journey, Hua Xuan changed back to his original handsome scholar mask. Tang Xi's mouth twitched slightly after seeing it, "Which one is your true face?" Hua Xuan threw a coquettish eye at her, "Guess." Tang Xi said in a light voice, "I won't guess." "Guess." Hua Xuan walked to her side, tilted his head and smiled at her, "Such a long way, it's so useless to keep silent, little beauty, why don't you treat it as a leisure game?" Tang Xi frowned and said unhappily, "I said I won't guess, then I won't guess." "Oh~" Hua Xuan raised his eyebrows, "You get angry so easily?" Xie Cheng pulled Tang Xi to his other side, looked at Hua Xuan, and said with a smile, "Mr. Hua, do you need this city lord to play the game of guessing whether you guess or not?" Hua Xuan chuckled, "No, I only like to play games with beauties." Tang Xi lowered her eyes and smiled secretly. She raised her eyes slightly, but saw Xie Cheng looking down at her. She was slightly stunned, and her face was instantly dyed with rosy clouds. She patted her face with both hands, raised her eyes and smiled foolishly at Xie Cheng twice, lowered her head, and closed her eyes in annoyance. Xie Cheng retracted his gaze, and the corners of his lips slightly raised. Hua Xuan secretly sighed twice, but his mood was inexplicably comfortable. I heard that his little sister seemed to be very concerned about Xie Cheng. If she saw this scene, she should give up, right? ———— When the three returned to the government office, the gate was already surrounded by people who were watching the excitement. This time, the people from the government office suddenly entered the Feng Mansion and took away all of Feng Shu's maids, which alarmed the entire South City Street. Boss Wang thought that the thief was caught, and he also led the people from the Wang Mansion to understand the situation. "Sir, what do you mean?" Master Feng looked at Mo Yi in confusion and said, "You mean that the murderer who killed my Shu'er was not that rapist, but the maid in the mansion?" "Master, please spare me, it was not my maid, I didn't kill anyone!" "Master, please spare me!" For a while, the maids' begging for mercy rang out one after another, and it was so chaotic that Mo Yi couldn't help rubbing his temples. "It's City Lord Xie who is back." I don't know who shouted, and the people who were blocking the gate made way for him. Xie Cheng and the other two finally found their way into the government office. In the crowd, Lin Yuetong, who was watching the excitement, suddenly opened her eyes, frowned and muttered: "Why is he here too?" Hua Xuan turned his head to look at the crowd, and Lin Yuetong quickly lowered her body to avoid his sight. Hua Xuan frowned slightly, turned around again and followed the pace of Xie Cheng and Tang Xi. "Master!" Seeing Xie Cheng, Mo Yi seemed to have seen a savior, and his eyes were surprisingly bright. Tang Xi and Hua Xuan automatically stood aside, while Xie Cheng walked to the court and took a seat. There was no need to bang the table board, as soon as Xie Cheng came, the originally chaotic noises automatically extinguished. When Master Feng saw Xie Cheng coming back, he immediately questioned: "Master Xie, you came at the right time. Lord Mo Yi came into my house to arrest people without saying a word. What... happened?" (End of this chapter)
Chapter 196 Trial (2) Xie Cheng looked at Master Feng and asked calmly, "Are all of Miss Feng's maids here?" Master Feng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "They are all here." "Which maid was on guard the night before Miss Feng's accident?" Xie Cheng asked again. The maids, who were originally crying, became nervous at this time. Seeing that no one spoke, Mo Yi said coldly, "Didn't you hear the city lord asking you a question?" The maids trembled with fear, and one of them said tremblingly, "Reply, reply to the city lord, it is me and Liu Xiang." "Which one is Liu Xiang?" Xie Cheng asked. The girl named Liu Xiang crawled forward and choked up and said, "Reply to the city lord, I am Liu Xiang." Xie Cheng said calmly, "Just the two of you?" Liu Xiang said, "And the girl's personal maid Jin Xiang." "You three were on guard, what happened that day?" Xie Cheng asked again. "I don't know!" Liu Xiang said, "That night, I and Ning Xiang stayed up until three o'clock in the morning, and Jin Xiang asked us to leave, saying that it was too cold at night and asked us to go back and rest early." "Yes!" Another maid said, "Although we feel strange, Jin Xiang is the girl's personal maid, and her words are equivalent to the girl's words. After hearing this, we thought that the girl felt sorry for us and left." "Who is Jin Xiang?" Xie Cheng asked in a low voice. It was quiet all around, and no one answered. Xie Cheng frowned slightly, "Where is Jin Xiang?" Hearing this, the maids all looked in one direction, and saw a beautiful little maid, whose face was pale, cold sweat on her forehead, and even her body was shaking. The maid beside her kindly reminded her, "Sister Jinxiang, the city lord is calling you." Unexpectedly, Jinxiang was startled and sat on the ground, shaking her head in horror and said, "It's not me, it's not me, the girl wanted to commit suicide herself, it has nothing to do with me!" Xie Cheng asked coldly, "What happened that night?" "I..." Jinxiang looked up at Xie Cheng, suddenly crawled forward, kowtowed several times, and choked while kowtowing, "City lord, it has nothing to do with me. It was my cousin. He heard that the girl was about to get married, and then he came to visit late at night. The girl asked me to guard outside the door, and ordered not to let anyone else get close, so I sent Liuxiang and Ningxiang away." "Cousin?" Master Feng opened his eyes wide, "Why did he go to Shu'er's boudoir?" Jinxiang sobbed, "Master, the girl and my cousin are in love with each other, but you don't agree, so..." "So what?" Master Feng's eyes were red with anger, and his voice was trembling, "Tell me quickly." Jin Xiang was so scared that she trembled all over, and said in a trembling voice: "So, they often have contact in private, and the girl's innocence was not destroyed by some thief, but... but..." Jin Xiang gritted her teeth and did not say the rest. However, it has come to this point, how could everyone not understand? Master Feng turned over and fainted instantly. Everyone in the Feng Mansion was shocked instantly, pinching his hands and pinching his philtrum. After a lot of effort, they woke him up, and someone came to report that the cousin also hanged himself in his own house. In the suicide note, he actually admitted that he had killed Feng Shu. The reason was that he was in love with his cousin, but was blocked by his uncle. He didn't want his cousin to marry someone else. He also heard that there was a thief in the house that day, so he became so bold that he took advantage of the night when no one was around and hanged Feng Shu to death. So, after reading the suicide note, Master Feng rolled his eyes and fainted again. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 197 The truth is revealed The case of Feng Mansion has been solved, but there is still the case of Wang Mansion. According to Hua Xuan, Wang Zhiling threw herself into his arms, but he pushed her away. His words have yet to be confirmed. "Coincidentally, everyone in Wang Mansion is here today, so I'll try her while I'm at it." Xie Cheng looked at Boss Wang and said, "Before Miss Wang got into trouble, was there anything wrong?" Today, Wang Zhirou also came. She knelt in the court with Boss Wang and everyone in Wang Mansion. "Was there anything wrong?" As if they had lost their beloved daughter, the two elders of the Wang family looked very haggard. Even Wang Zhirou looked much more tired than when they met before. "Before the accident, the girl often muttered at night, saying that she saw gods." A maid said, "Later, she lost her appetite. She only ate two bites of the food sent by the servants, and then she started mumbling like crazy, like a demon." "Yes, yes!" Boss Wang said, "During that time, I also asked Doctor Guan to see her. Doctor Guan also said that Ling'er seemed to have been stimulated by something and had hysteria." "Heretic?" Xie Cheng glanced at Hua Xuan and continued to ask, "Didn't you say that she was defiled by thieves?" "My sister said so in her suicide note!" Wang Zhirou sobbed, "But... my mother said that my sister's uterine blood is still there." Xie Cheng frowned, "Since the uterine blood is still there, how can it be said that she was defiled by someone?" "That's right, she couldn't have hanged herself because of hysteria?" "What happened to these two people?" "It's really hard to guess what the girls of wealthy families are thinking." "The person is dead, so even if they have lost their innocence, they have to keep it a secret. The Wang family is so good. The person is dead, but their innocence is still there. But they claim that their daughter has lost her innocence. Miss Wang is too pitiful." "That's right!" ... The onlookers said one after another, and everyone in the Wang Mansion almost couldn't raise their heads. "It's not like that!" Wang Zhirou argued with red eyes, "We don't know who leaked the contents of my sister's suicide note." There are many servants in the mansion. They secretly talk about it, and one person spreads it to another. By the time the people in the Wang Mansion get out of their grief, the matter has long been known to everyone, and it is useless to control it. "Silence." Xie Cheng slapped the chopping board, and everyone was silent again. "So, Miss Wang was not killed by a thief, and no one has tarnished her innocence?" "Before the incident, the girl always said that the fairy embraced her." Wang Zhiling's maid said, "She also opened the window every night, saying that she wanted to wait for the fairy to come, but I stayed with her for several days, and no one came. Until the second night, the girl saw that the fairy did not come, so she went back to her room and slept obediently. I was relieved at that time and went to bed at ease. Who knew that the next morning, the girl... hanged herself!" At the end, the maid broke down and cried instantly. "Isn't Miss Wang going to get married? Why is she still thinking about the fairy?" "Isn't that man more handsome than our city lord?" "Nonsense, in our eyes, the city lord is the fairy!" "I heard that the man Miss Wang is about to marry is a playboy who lingers in the flowers. Maybe she doesn't like such a man, so she pretends to be hysterical. Finally, thinking about the future, she feels that there is no way out, so she wants to hang herself?" Someone whispered and guessed. The culprit, the "god", was standing in the corner of the courtroom, listening to everyone's speculations calmly. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 198 The City Lord's Sweetheart Someone said, "Miss Wang has been spoiled since she was a child, and she is usually unruly. It is probably because the husband chosen by Boss Wang is not to her liking, so it is not impossible that she had the idea of committing suicide." Wang Zhiling had indeed made a scene before because she was dissatisfied with this marriage, but Boss Wang never compromised, so in the end, it was left unresolved. "I heard that the marriage was originally intended for a girl from the main family of the Wang family, but the girl didn't want to marry, so the main family set their sights on Miss Wang. This Miss Wang is really pitiful." Boss Wang's face turned pale, and in the end, he could only lead everyone in the Wang Mansion to leave, and the case was finally left unresolved. "I said it wasn't me, right?" Hua Xuan nudged Tang Xi's shoulder with his elbow and said proudly. Tang Xi rolled her eyes at him and distanced herself from him, "Although it wasn't you, she died because of you." "What does that have to do with me? It wasn't me who asked her to die." Hua Xuan raised his eyebrows and shouted to Xie Cheng, "Lord Xie, can I leave now?" Xie Cheng ignored him and walked to Tang Xi, saying in a low voice, "It's getting dark, do you still want to go back to the manor?" Tang Xi shook her head, "No, I'm going to find someone to renovate the shop tomorrow morning." "Want to go back to Xie Mansion with me?" Xie Cheng looked at her expectantly. Tang Xi shook her head and smiled at him, "I won't go." She had lived in Xie Mansion before because she wanted to treat the old lady, so what was the point of her moving in now? Xie Cheng's eyes dimmed, as if he was a little disappointed, "Where are you going? I'll take you there." Tang Xi said, "Back to the shop." "Then let's go." After a day of trying the case, Tang Xi didn't even have time to eat. As soon as she walked out of the door, her stomach started to make a fuss. She covered her stomach, her expression full of embarrassment. Xie Cheng glanced at her calmly without any reaction. After the two of them got on the carriage, Xie Cheng told Mo Yi, "Let's go to Zuixiaolou." "Yes!" The carriage quickly drove away from the government office. Hua Xuan, who was left behind, raised his eyebrows slightly, "You didn't even take me with you when you went to eat delicious food. How stingy!" He curled his lips and turned to the direction of Chengxi Street. When Tang Xi came back from the capital before, she didn't come to the shop to see it. Now she came here to find out that the fireworks building opposite was already open for business. It was called Yanchunlou. At this time, the lights were just coming on, and the girls opposite had already started standing outside the door to receive customers. Zuixiaolou was just opposite Yanchunlou, two shops away, and next to the shop she bought. "City Lord!" As soon as the three got off the carriage and entered the restaurant, everyone in the restaurant was not calm. The shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment. After coming to his senses, he hurried over to greet him, "City Lord, please follow me!" "Yes." Xie Cheng responded calmly and followed the shopkeeper upstairs. He seldom eats in these places, probably less than twice a year, which is why so many people are surprised. Someone saw Tang Xi, so he asked in a low voice: "Is the girl next to Lord Moyi the city lord's sweetheart?" "What do you mean?" Someone was puzzled, "Isn't the city lord's sweetheart Princess Hanrong?" "But, recently, the girl who appeared next to the city lord seems to be only this girl." "What's the matter?" Someone envied: "Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Princess Hanrong is a gentle beauty, and the girl in front of me is pretty. If I can have two beauties at the same time, I will wake up laughing in my dreams." Someone sneered, "Then go back and dream, a big dream of Spring and Autumn." Hearing this, everyone laughed out loud. Xie Cheng, who had reached the middle of the stairs, turned his head and glanced at the group of people. The group of people were instantly frightened by the sharp eyes and stopped laughing. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 199 Still thinking about that favor The shopkeeper glanced downstairs and sneered in his heart. These ignorant guys even dared to join in the fun of the city lord. He said to Xie Cheng and the other two, "City Lord, please come in!" "What do you want to eat?" Xie Cheng asked Tang Xi as soon as the three of them entered the private room and took their seats. Mo Yi was no longer surprised and directly reported a few of his favorite dishes to the shopkeeper. Tang Xi smiled slightly, "I'm not picky, I can eat anything." Not picky? Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly. Who said that he didn't like to eat dry food? You still have the nerve to say that you are not picky. He said to the shopkeeper in a cold voice, "Bring some of your special dishes." "Yes!" After the shopkeeper agreed, he asked, "City Lord, would you like a jar of wine?" Xie Cheng glanced at Tang Xi and raised the corner of his lips slightly, "No need." Tang Xi seemed to understand his eyes and looked a little embarrassed. "It's so cold, it's just right to drink a little wine." Mo Yi said, "Shopkeeper, give me half a pot of hot wine." "This..." The shopkeeper looked at Xie Cheng, but heard him say in a calm voice, "Give it to him." "Okay!" The shopkeeper smiled and left the private room. "Brother, just promise me that we will go to Xie's house tomorrow. I haven't been there for a long time!" " Oh, no, no, I don't want to see his face. I really don't understand why you women like him. He always has a stinky face, as if everyone owes him." The three of them were sitting, and the voices of Princess Han Rong and a man came from the private room next door. Tang Xi and Mo Yi looked at each other, and then looked at Xie Cheng at the same time, but saw him pouring tea with a pot with an indifferent face, as if he had no interest in the conversation next door. Hanrong said, "I haven't seen Brother Acheng for a long time. I heard that the case of Wangfu and Fengfu was closed today. He has been very hard to chase some thieves during this period!" "What does it have to do with me?" The man said impatiently, "If you want to go, just go and tell your father. What's the point of finding me?" "But, I don't know what my father has been busy with recently. I haven't seen him all day long. If I don't go, my brother Acheng will be snatched away by that little bitch." Little bitch? Is he referring to her? Tang Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. "What are you afraid of?" The man snorted coldly, "Their Xie Mansion still owes a favor to our Anyang Wangfu. Don't worry, Xie Cheng will marry you no matter what in this life." "Of course I know that." Princess Hanrong curled her lips, "Well, considering that little bitch's great medical skills, I am too lazy to bother with her. Anyway, Brother Acheng's principal wife in the future will definitely be me!" "Wishful thinking." Moyi sneered in a low voice. He used to think that Princess Hanrong was different from others, but he didn't expect that she was not a good person in private, not even half as good as Tangxi. Tangxi looked at Xie Cheng who was calm, lowered his eyes and smiled slightly. The people in Anyang Palace still wanted to rely on that favor to trick Xie Cheng, but they didn't know that he had already repaid it. Here, the dishes came up quickly, all of which were delicious and fragrant. Tangxi had been hungry for most of the day. When he smelled the fragrance, he was too lazy to listen to the conversation next door, and directly took the chopsticks to sweep the delicacies on the table. Xie Cheng didn't eat much of the large table of dishes, and almost all of them went into Tangxi and Moyi's stomach. The three of them had just put down their chopsticks when the door of the private room next door opened. After a while, the three of them heard the voices of Princess Hanrong and the man gradually fade away. Mo Yi curled his lips, "Does this Prince Fan really think that his master will let them, the Prince Anyang's Mansion, control him?" Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled, "It seems that the Prince Anyang is still thinking about the favor he has done to the Xie Mansion." She glanced at Xie Cheng, and suddenly she was looking forward to the reaction of the Prince Anyang when he asked Xie Cheng for a favor in the future. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 200 Come Back Another Day After leaving Zuixiaolou, Xie Cheng asked Moyi to wait for the carriage first, and he walked Tang Xi back to the shop. Tang Xi took out the key and opened the shop. Perhaps because no one had cleaned it for too long, a strange smell instantly hit her nose as soon as the door opened. She frowned slightly, raised her hand and fanned her nose lightly, looked at Xie Cheng regretfully and said, "It looks like I can't invite you in for a while." Xie Cheng glanced at the dark shop and wanted to persuade her to go back to Xie Mansion with him to stay for one night, but thinking of the scene when she was fighting with Hua Xuan today, he felt that his worries were a bit unnecessary, and could only nod slightly and said, "Then... you should go to bed early, grandparents should still be waiting for me, I shouldn't stay long." "Yeah!" Tang Xi nodded, "Come back another day. I'll treat you to tea." "Okay!" Xie Cheng stared at her for a long time before turning around and striding away. Tang Xi watched him get on the carriage, and only turned back when the carriage went away and disappeared on the street. She opened the door of the shop, and waited until the exhaust gas in the house had almost dissipated. She took out a candle from the space and lit it in the dark. The Yanchun Building opposite was very lively with laughter and joy, but her shop, which was opposite the people's shop, seemed a little lonely at this time. There were people coming and going on the street, and the bun shop next door was still open. The shop owner's voice was getting louder and louder, but she seemed to be a little out of tune with this bustle. She sighed softly and muttered, "If I had known earlier, I would have let Xie Cheng stay a little longer!" The shop was not big, and there was no proper place to rest. She walked around the shop for a while, and finally locked the door from the inside, then extinguished the candle and went directly into the space to rest. The next morning, Tang Xi rented a carriage and went to the Chengxi Home Furnishing Workshop that Wu Tong had told her about last time, and asked the owner to remake a plaque, named "Tang's Rouge Shop". She always wanted to keep things simple, and she was too lazy to think about a name that was both nice and meaningful, so she just chose it. The owner of the home furnishing workshop said that it would be delivered tomorrow. Tang Xi thought that she still had to find someone to redecorate it, so she told the owner that it would be okay to wait two days. Back to Chengnan Street, Tang Xi went to Jimintang again. The first two times she came, Doctor Guan was not there. This time, she happened to run into Doctor Guan who was returning from an outing. "Miss Tang!" Doctor Guan seemed particularly happy to see her again, "Why are you here?" Tang Xi smiled slightly, "I came to ask Brother Wu for help." "Really?" Doctor Guan smiled and said, "Please come in!" "Okay!" Tang Xi smiled and followed him into Jimintang. There were not many people coming to see the doctor at this time. A few came to get medicine, and when they saw them come in, they just glanced at them and left with the medicine. Doctor Guan said with a smile: "Miss Tang, please take a seat first. I will go in and put some things away first." "Hey!" Tang Xi responded with a smile. "Miss Tang, have you found the workshop?" Wu Tong asked with a smile. "Found it!" Tang Xi nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "I came here to ask for another favor this time." Wu Tong said: "Just tell me what it is." Tang Xi said: "I want to rebuild the shop I bought, but I don't know where to find someone." She thought about looking for Xie Cheng, but Xie Cheng was busy catching "thieves" some time ago, and he probably didn't get much rest. She didn't want to disturb him, so she had to come to Wu Tong for help. "Well, I know someone who does this business." Wu Tong said: "If Miss Tang trusts me, I will go and call the person to you right away." (End of this chapter)
