I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

Wen Qingzhi was not afraid at all. At worst, she could hide in the [Peony Evil] and die.

"The Regent just slapped my butt in front of so many people. Didn't he think about how I would face people in the future?"

She was angry, her little face, the size of a palm, her cheeks puffed up, and... quite cute?

But in this matter... Feng Junxiao is in the wrong.

He didn't know what was going on at the time, so he just took the photo.

But will he admit that he was wrong?

will not.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the carriage fell to freezing point. Zhang Ye, who was driving the carriage outside, and Chang Baicao, who was sitting in the carriage, both shook their heads as they listened to the conversation inside.

Feng Junxiao was silent.

Wen Qingzhi didn't say anything more about his silence, and finally Feng Junxiao broke the silence.

"Today's attack was all done by death. There are a few survivors, but we haven't asked them anything yet. We're afraid they might bite their tongues or take poison, so we'll break their jaws."

Wen Qingzhi sighed deeply and said, "It's highly likely that we won't be able to interrogate these remaining people and find out anything. Today's commotion has really made a big splash. Lord Fang won't give up on this clue, so someone will definitely follow up on it."

"Zhentian Prefecture has also gotten involved, and with the addition of your men, the Regent, if Xia Niang and the others were to make any more mishaps, it would be truly unacceptable."

"Xiao Yi won't joke about his own future. Even if the other party wants to silence him, he will have to think twice."

As she spoke, her eyes were as fiery as torches. "Lord Fang will definitely have Xia Niang and the others appear before the emperor. Then, let Xia Niang and the others firmly declare that they only want justice for the deceased and for the living to live in peace."

"Once Xia Niang and the others are no longer a threat to the people behind the scenes, they won't take such insignificant people seriously. Moreover, if something happens to Xia Niang and her group of hundreds of people, it will be a major case that shakes the world."

"After this incident, Xia Niang and the others will be living under the sun, citizens of Bei Ming. If anything happens to these hundred or so people..."

She didn't say anything else, as what she said here already said it all.

If something happens to more than a hundred people in the capital, Feng Yunsu will send people to investigate it thoroughly even if he is not happy about it.

If we investigate like this, something will definitely be found out, and it won't bring bad luck to the people behind the scenes.

"I don't know whether to say you are smart or generous."

Feng Yunxiao poured her some tea and handed it to her, "You are so brave, you dare to gamble with so many lives."

Wen Qingzhi looked at the teacup in front of her. It was made of fine white jade, with a warm color and was very valuable.

She took it, drank it all, and vented her dissatisfaction.

Feng Yunxiao saw this and asked, "How does it taste?"

"I don't know."

Wen Qingzhi looked towards the window and wanted to raise her hand to open the curtain to get some fresh air, but Feng Yunxiao grabbed her hand.

"You are a tired man now."

Hearing this, she put down her hand and said, "I'm still worried."

"worry about what?"

"People from a small mountain village."

She said frankly, "When I first arrived, I saw the mess on the ground and the expressions of Xia Niang and the others. I didn't know whether what I did was right or wrong."

Her eyes flickered, her gaze slightly empty. "This gamble is huge."

Feng Yunxiao leaned on the cushion, shaking the white jade teacup in his hand, admiring the color of the tea inside.

"It's not big, how can it attract people to bet?"

"It's not big, how do we attract people to join us?"

He continued sipping his tea. "You won this round, didn't you? From now on, the people of this small mountain village can walk freely in every corner of the world, and no one will harm them. Are you still not satisfied with this result?"

"With the least investment, you can win the biggest prize. Wen Qingzhi, you are a qualified gambler."

Wen Qingzhi chuckled and looked straight at Feng Yunxiao, "Isn't it the same for the Regent? After all, isn't the biggest winner in this matter your royal family?"

Feng Junxiao raised an eyebrow, and could hear the sarcasm in her tone, "There is no perfect method in the world, Wen Qingzhi, if you want to gain something, you must lose something."

“Everything needs to be replaced with an equivalent.”

Wen Qingzhi suddenly thought of a novel she had read, "Do Not Disappoint the Buddha, Do Not Disappoint You," but she always felt that the story was too sad, and she also thought of another sentence.

She said: "There is no perfect Dharma in the world. I will let down the Tathagata but not you."

Feng Junxiao's eyebrows fluctuated, "Your words...are quite tricky."

"How to say?"

"Monks cultivate by severing the seven emotions and six desires, devoting themselves to the Tathagata. This is the great way. Why would one give up cultivation for just one person?"

"The Regent is not a monk, how can he know?"

"Delaying others' cultivation is like killing their parents. Such things are unacceptable."

Wen Qingzhi was rarely amused.

Suddenly I thought of a Taoist priest I knew in my previous life.

Her colleague asked: Taoist priest, I can’t let go of my emotions, what should I do?

At that time, the Taoist priest looked at her and said: Don’t think about those useless things, no one can do it.

Feng Junxiao sat opposite her, watching her trying to suppress her laughter, as if she was happy about something, and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Wen Qingzhi shook her head, "I heard a Taoist priest say something before."

"The gist is that emotions are something you can't really give up. Everyone has them. So, giving them up is also part of letting go of desire, isn't it?"

This answer was quite strange. It was the first time Feng Junxiao had heard of it.

"Strong words."

Feng Junxiao looked away from her bright eyes and looked at the table beside him to hide his subtle emotional changes.

"But...Xiao Yi is right about one thing."

Wen Qingzhi suddenly said seriously, "Prince Regent, your injury is almost healed now. When will you leave the Marquis' Mansion?"

"My family is mostly made up of women, and it would be a bad influence if you stayed here all the time."

In fact, he had been staying at the mansion the entire time, and his food and drink were all paid for by the mansion. He was a picky eater, and he only cared about the best food and drink. During these days, his expenses alone were almost as much as those of everyone else in the mansion.

This person not only doesn't pay for medical treatment, but also provides free food and accommodation. This is too much.

The originally agreed silver was basically not given...

Feng Junxiao said, "Oh?" "Are you afraid that others will misunderstand you, or are you afraid that Xiao Yi will misunderstand you?"

"What does it have to do with Xiao Yi?"

Wen Qingzhi asked in confusion, "This is my business, it has nothing to do with others."

She didn't look like she was lying, so Feng Junxiao didn't know what to say.

He only said: "After this matter is over, this king will leave."

At first he chose to stay because he wanted to find out Wen Qingzhi's secret.

But now it seems that secrets are called secrets because few people know them.

He... also didn't want Wen Qingzhi to attract too much attention from others.

The reason he gave himself was that Wen Qingzhi was a suitable partner.

If such a person cannot help you, he will only become the dead soul under your sword.

He subconsciously tightened his grip on the sword at his waist, which was noticed by Wen Qingzhi.

"Regent."

Wen Qingzhi asked, "Have you paid the money to the Yuan family?"

Feng Yunxiao nodded, "It will be delivered to the palace that night and prepared for distribution to provide disaster relief."

"Who will lead the disaster relief team?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will be Fang Qingbai. He is stubborn but has integrity and will not embezzle. Only if he leads the team can we ensure that this money will actually fall into the hands of the refugees."

"really."

Wen Qingzhi nodded in agreement.

"Just in case, I will ask for permission to go with you. The disaster in the south is severe, and the casualties are too great, so the Imperial Hospital will also send personnel. Then... you will go with me."

"what?"

Wen Qingzhi looked up in surprise and met Feng Yunxiao's lazy gaze, "Why should I go?"

"In terms of medical skills, you are no worse than those old doctors in the palace. Even Chang Baicao recognizes you, which is enough to prove that your medical skills are very good."

"According to reports from the south, a few villages have already experienced an outbreak of a difficult disease that is contagious. I'm worried that the stubborn old men in the Imperial Hospital might be out of control, so I'm bringing you along."

"Of course, to avoid trouble, Chang Baicao will have to go with you. Then, just say you're his apprentice."

"Calling your own disciple Master... Regent, that's called turning the tables."

"If you don't mind the trouble, you can ask him to call you Master."

Speechless.

"I have been worrying about too many things recently. I am exhausted and want to have a good rest."

"We can rest there."

Feng Yunxiao didn't give her a chance to refuse. "As gods, you should save people from suffering, right?"

He used Wen Qingzhi's excuse to bet on her, "If you can accomplish this, you will be a true Bodhisattva in the eyes of the disaster victims."

"You know how to weigh the pros and cons, and you should also understand that this time I am creating an opportunity for you."

"Don't be ungrateful and don't cherish it."
