"girl?"

Wen Qingzhi didn't speak for a long time. Chunyu saw that she was distracted and called her a few more times.

"Girl, what's wrong with you?"

Refocusing her gaze, Wen Qingzhi softly said, "It's okay."

Back at the Marquis' Mansion, Mrs. Li came to find Wen Qingzhi and said, "Miss, the relatives of the Yuan family are causing trouble in the shop again."

The thought that this winter might be colder than in previous years and that it would cost a lot of money and resources was already frustrating. Hearing this news undoubtedly ignited Wen Qingzhi's anger.

"Make a fuss? How dare they make a fuss?"

Wen Qingzhi's face was gloomy, and her eyes were cold. "For so many years, you have been eating and drinking my food and drinking my drinks, and you haven't paid me a penny. You still have the nerve to make trouble?"

"Who are they? Ask Uncle Wang to prepare the list and send it over."

"Yes."

I originally wanted to deal with the affairs of the small mountain village before dealing with the Yuan family, but I didn't expect them to be so jumpy.

Not long after she arrived at the yard to rest, Butler Wang came over with a booklet. Almost all the Yuan family and their relatives were on the booklet.

"Okay, very good!"

Wen Qingzhi was so angry that she threw the booklet away, "They don't even have any shame!"

"Girl, don't be angry. It's not worth it for those people!"

Chunyu picked up the booklet and put it on the table, then went over to calm Wen Qingzhi down, "They are just a bunch of annoying people!"

"Ghosts? Haha, then I'll find a Zhong Kui to capture them!"

It seems that the matter of dealing with the Yuan family will have to be brought forward again.

"Chun Yu, ask Sister Li to prepare a delicious meal and send it to the Regent."

"Yes."

After returning from a long journey, she changed her clothes and rushed to Feng Junxiao.

As soon as he arrived, he heard Feng Junxiao speak sarcastically, "Miss Wen is really a person who never gets up early unless there is a benefit...When you need me, you have people prepare the Hongmen Feast. When you don't need me, you don't even give me a bite of food."

"But it seems to me that the Regent has become... a little plumper lately."

She sat down with a smile and took the initiative to pour a glass of vodka for Feng Junxiao. It was her favorite liquor that she found in the house of [Mudansha].

Feng Yunxiao looked at the glass of wine with a strange color and did not move.

Wen Qingzhi naturally understood what he was thinking, "This is the Marquis' Mansion. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't do it in my own home."

Seeing her drinking it all in one gulp, Feng Junxiao was just about to ask someone to test for poison when he heard her say this.

He opened his thin lips slightly, and after a moment of surprise, he said, "Have you really thought of killing me?"

Have you thought about it?

Wen Qingzhi's eyes were filled with dark thoughts. "How could that be?"

Why haven’t you thought about it?

For her, the most direct way to solve a problem is to make the other person dead.

He had helped me once before, and I had helped him many times, so they owed each other nothing.

"You don't look like you wouldn't."

Feng Yunxiao picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, imitating her, but choked and coughed twice. "What kind of wine is this?"

"Um……"

Wen Qingzhi wondered, how to explain it?

"I don't know. I found it in the warehouse."

"..."

"If you're not used to drinking, just eat vegetables."

Wen Qingzhi didn't indulge him and poured herself another glass.

She liked the feeling of stimulating her taste buds, which prevented her from indulging in killing and made her more sober.

"I need to go to the palace and see the emperor in the near future."

"Can't the Yuan family hold back anymore?"

Feng Junxiao felt that tonight's food was much more delicious than yesterday's.

"Well, it's time to settle the accounts."

After a few drinks, Wen Qingzhi's cheeks turned pink, her eyes were half closed, and she looked as if she was drunk, with a silly look on her face.

Feng Yunxiao then realized that she was wearing a bright goose yellow dress tonight, which was completely different from her usual plain white attire.

I heard that Wen Qingzhi went to the small mountain village early in the morning, and she was not wearing this outfit in the morning. Does that mean she changed her clothes specially to see me when she came back?

Ah……

"Please, Lord Regent, arrange for the audience with the Emperor as soon as possible. After all, it is in everyone's interest."

Feng Junxiao thought about it and instantly felt a little better. He said, "Tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Regent."

Wen Qingzhi, looking drunk, staggered to her feet, her blurry eyes fixed on Feng Yunxiao: "Hey... Regent, why do you have an extra head?"

She staggered towards Feng Yunxiao, laughing, "Why, why does this extra head have a little flower on it?"

Feng Junxiao looked at her speechlessly and couldn't help frowning.

With this alcohol tolerance, how dare you drink such strong liquor?

but……

Feng Junxiao seemed to have noticed something and moved the corners of his lips.

"Send your girl back, don't delay tomorrow's important business. After tomorrow's morning court session, I will send someone to escort her to the palace."

"Yes Yes!"

Chunyu was scared to death!

How dare her girl say that the Regent wore flowers on his head!

Two years ago, when she secretly went to the street to buy cakes for the girl, she encountered the Regent in the street... and attacked him!

After some inquiries, I found out that the woman from the Western Regions thought the Regent was handsome, so she wanted to drug him and bring him back to the Western Regions!

result?

Not only was she stabbed to death on the spot by the Regent, but her body was also hung on the city wall and dried in the sun.

Her girl is really going to scare her to death tonight!

Chunyu coaxed and deceived Wen Qingzhi and finally managed to trick her out.

After walking out of the yard and taking a few steps, Chunyu felt the weight on her body gradually disappear. After she was far away, Wen Qingzhi was able to walk on her own.

In the darkness, she stared ahead with her dark, shining eyes and said to Chunyu, "Tomorrow, please prepare that off-white robe for me, comb my hair into a simple bun, and paint my face whiter."

Chun Yu looked at her now sober appearance, and said with awe in her heart, "I understand."

Over the past few days, the spring rain has become more clever and not as honest as before.

"I'll have Uncle Wang go to the shop tonight and get some new rice from this year. I'll have him grind it into rice paste, and have Sister Li make rice cakes. I'll bring them with me to the palace tomorrow."

"Yes!"

"Tell Uncle Wang to close all the grain and oil shops and send all the grain, oil, and other items in the warehouse to the Marquis' Mansion. There's no need to find a special place to store them, as long as they are not exposed to rain or moisture."

"Yes, the servant understands."

Chunyu responded and asked, "Girl, you...your health..."

"I'm not drunk, I'm just pretending."

At this moment, she was already quite compact, not at all as light-footed as before.

"This...won't you pretend again? What if the Regent's men see us——"

"You think he doesn't know?"

Wen Qingzhi didn't stop and looked back at where Feng Yunxiao was. "For many things, it's enough to just save face. Right now, I need something from him, and he needs something from me. Our relationship is a game of chess."

"As long as my leverage is high enough, he can't touch me."

Wen Qingzhi was certain that Feng Yunxiao was only thinking about researching the composition of the five-step snake venom serum as soon as possible, and then getting rid of him after he had done his job.

pity……

He will never be able to figure it out in this life, no, not even in the next life!
