Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Two imperial guards stepped forward and lifted up Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu showed a look of fear at this moment.

He is not the son of the Left Vice Minister, he is just a steward.

If he was really killed by someone, it is not certain whether Li Shanyu would protect him, not to mention that he doesn't even know who did it.

In his impression, Ye Chen is not one of those powerful and wealthy children in the capital.

Why is it so fierce?

"Sir, I was wrong, sir! Please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again next time. I was just following orders!"

There was a flash of resentment in Lu Jiu's eyes, but he began to beg for mercy.

A good man does not suffer immediate losses.

For the sake of his life, Lu Jiu decided to compromise.

"Shut his mouth and drag him away!"

Ye Chen was too lazy to pay attention to this guy.

The two imperial guards immediately found a piece of rag, stuffed it into Lu Jiu's mouth, and dragged him away.

It was only then that Chen Tao and the lame groom recognized Ye Chen.

"It's you?"

Chen Tao exclaimed, then said to Qin Meng, "Miss, this young man is the benefactor who once saved me!"

Hearing this, Qin Man's eyes suddenly lit up, and she got off the carriage and walked towards Ye Chen with Chen Tao and the lame coachman.

"I am Qin Man from the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion. I am honored to meet you, benefactor."

Qin Man bowed to Ye Chen, her tone full of gratitude.

"Oh, Miss Qin, there's no need to be so polite."

Ye Chen smiled with a gentle tone. Qin Man's figure was so sexy that he couldn't help but look at her twice more. Then he stepped forward and took Qin Man's arm, gently helping her up.

At this moment, his fingers inevitably touched Qin Man's fair and tender arms for a moment.

In an instant, Qin Man trembled all over and immediately pulled her hand back, feeling quite embarrassed.

Ye Chen only felt the warmth and softness on his fingertips, with residual heat lingering around.

It's really smooth and moist.

"Young Master, you have repeatedly helped my Jing'an Marquis Mansion, but I don't know where you live. When I have time in the future, Qin Man will visit you in person to express my gratitude."

Qin Man's tone was gentle. After what happened today, she was in no mood to sell the horse anymore. Instead, she planned to take Chen Yi and others away and find a doctor to treat the injured groom.

"Miss Qin, I wonder if today is convenient for you. I just need to talk to you about something."

How could Ye Chen let Qin Man leave like this? He originally came here to look for someone from the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion.

".In that case, please go to the Yuge Teahouse on East Street in the capital and wait for a while. I will come to you after I have taken care of the injured Uncle Zhang."

Qin Man said to Ye Chen.

"Miss Qin, it's still too slow for you to go back in a carriage. How about this? I'll send someone on a fast horse to the capital to ask the best doctor to come and treat your groom, and then we can go directly to the teahouse in the horse market to meet. What do you think?"

Ye Chen pointed to the teahouse not far away and said.

"This, this isn't good."

Qin Man felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Ye Chen's enthusiasm.

She doesn't like to owe others.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? I really have something important to discuss with Miss Qin. We don't need to waste time."

Ye Chen insisted.

"In that case, I'll trouble you, sir. However, sir, all the money spent on hiring the doctor will be paid by Qin Man. If you are unwilling, then Qin Man will never dare to agree to this matter."

Qin Man's tone became very firm.

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but look at Qin Man with a higher opinion.

She is a woman who appears gentle but is actually very strong inside.

But think about it, this is normal. The woman in front of me is supporting the entire Jing'an Marquis Mansion at such a young age.

"Okay, since the young lady insists so much, I will do as the young lady says."

Ye Chen said so.

Hearing this, Qin Man smiled sweetly.

"Sir, please go to the teahouse first. I'll be there soon."

"it is good."

Ye Chen turned around and walked towards the teahouse, while Qin Man settled the injured coachman before taking Chen Tao to the teahouse.

There are many people and mermaids in the horse market, and there are many people coming and going every day, so there are also many taverns and teahouses.

The teahouse that Ye Chen pointed out was not the most luxurious in the entire Ma City, but it was also very elegant.

Those who consume in these places are generally horse traders of considerable wealth.

Ye Chen just went in and asked about the price, and found out that a private room would cost three taels of silver.

"I need a private room. Don't let outsiders disturb me today."

Ye Chen went out today with silver to buy a horse. Shen Qiu threw out a few ingots of silver, and he was taken to the private room by the enthusiastic waiter.

The layout of the private room is simple yet elegant and very clean.

When you open the window, you can see a winding river.

After making a pot of hot tea and ordering a few plates of snacks, Ye Chen waited in the private room, and soon.

The door of the private room was pushed open.

Qin Man walked into the private room and silently took off the veil on her head.

At this moment, besides her, there were only Ye Chen and Shen Qiu in the private room.

Since we want to talk about things, there is no need to hide your identity.

When Ye Chen saw Qin Man's true appearance, his eyes lit up.

Her oval face is slightly angular but soft, her cherry lips are pink and sexy, her sparkling eyes are like a bay of spring water, full of endless warmth, her skin is fair and crystal clear, and she is born with a pure temperament, very girlish.

Ye Chen's eyes were staring straight ahead.

Qin Man noticed Ye Chen's gaze and frowned slightly. She felt that Ye Chen was really rude. How could he stare at someone's face? If she hadn't owed Ye Chen a favor before, she would have probably walked away. But now she just picked up the teacup.

"Sir, may I know your name?"

Qin Man deliberately raised the teacup, seemingly to toast Ye Chen, but in fact she was blocking Ye Chen's sight.

"Hi, ahem, my name is Ye Chen, Miss Qin, you can just call me Master Ye."

Ye Chen coughed twice with a little embarrassment and also raised his teacup.

"Mr. Ye, what do you want from me?"

Qin Man took a sip, put down the teacup, and asked in confusion.

"Miss Qin, to be honest, I came to you today to ask if you know Zhou Nanyi?"

When Ye Chen talked about business, his expression immediately became serious.

A solemn aura emanated from him.

Qin Man's delicate body trembled slightly, but she only felt that Ye Chen brought her a strong pressure at this time.

It made her a little nervous.

She had never felt this way before.

It is also completely different from Ye Chen's previous frivolous image.

"Uncle Zhou used to provide war horses for the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion. Why are you asking about this kind man, young master?"

Qin Man was a little suspicious. Even though Ye Chen brought her pressure, she still did not directly tell him about Zhou Nanyi's situation.

"Miss Qin, we're looking for Mr. Zhou mainly to learn about the situation of the Qiang people. I have a big deal that I want to cooperate with them on, and I believe Mr. Zhou will definitely be interested."

Ye Chen smiled faintly, his tone calm, but he also wanted to dispel Qin Man's concerns, and said.

Hearing this, Qin Man was silent for a moment, and finally felt that Ye Chen could not be a bad person, and said: "If that's the case, then I won't hide it."
