Chapter 457

He's going with himself?

Xu Mingyi was slightly stunned.

"If you don't feel right, I'll wait for you outside," Wu said.

He was not a man without discretion, and he had no intention of interfering in her every private matter regardless of her wishes, making her feel uncomfortable - he just didn't trust her at this time.

These meanings are naturally felt.

She looked back, nodded her head and said with a smile, "if you don't mind the trouble, let's go."

They went downstairs together.

Outside the teahouse, the rain has not stopped, and the rain is growing.

Wu Tsui took the green bamboo umbrella from Shou Ming, put it on Xu Mingyi's head and left the teahouse.

The sky will be dark, crystal rain drops hit the umbrella surface, and the petals will be broken and splashed.

The young man was wearing a green robe and had a straight body. His hand holding the green bamboo umbrella handle was white, slender and powerful.

The girl under the umbrella was slightly carrying a moon white silk skirt, revealing a pair of autumn scented embroidered white plum inlaid South Pearl embroidered shoes. The embroidered shoes were light and soft, and the girl stepped lightly on the wet bluestone road.

Ah Kui never thought that one day he would need his grandson from Dingnan palace to compete for his own job——

But she hasn't won it yet.

The little girl who couldn't hold an umbrella for her girl chose to run to the carriage quickly and put up the curtain of the carriage.

After being helped into the carriage, Xu Mingyi poked his head out and said to Wu Tsui, "if you want to go together, then come up."

Wu Tsui hesitated subconsciously for a moment - he came here on horseback before it rained.

Shou Ming, who was sent outside the teahouse, was worried. The childe was too obedient to the rules of the aristocratic family. Why didn't he take the initiative to get into the sky in the carriage early in the morning?

Fearing that his childe would ask him to prepare another carriage, Shou Ming hurried ahead and said in embarrassment: "it's raining hard at this time. Childe should not ride again, but the carriage in the teahouse has been sent out to do business. Childe, look at this..."

Okui widened her eyes slightly and looked at the carriage parked beside the teahouse.

Is this just lying with your eyes open?

She had seen how well a storyteller could tell a lie.

Seeing ah Kui's sight, Shou Ming turned his head and coughed at the bottom of his heart - a little hasty.

Fortunately, his grandson didn't explore the truth of his words carefully, so he took his umbrella and got on the carriage of Miss Xu's family.

Wu Tsung was more or less uncomfortable when he sat down in the carriage.

This carriage is obviously used by Xu Mingyi. Although the furnishings in it are not fancy at all, the layout is elegant and concise. In addition, the custom traces of his daughter's house can be seen in the details.

And there was a faint aroma in the car, which was familiar to him and the light aroma she carried.

In this way, he can't help but have an illusion that he seems to have broken into the boudoir of a girl he likes

Seeing his hands clenched on his legs and his body sitting straight, Xu Mingyi's face as handsome as white jade had an artificial positive color. A smile leaked from Xu Mingyi's eyes. He picked up the tea lamp and pretended not to see his restraint.

The wagon wheel ran over the rain, crossed the long street, bypassed a residential area, and stopped in front of a seemingly ordinary courtyard.

This is where Zhan Yunzhu lives today.

After he was rescued, he tried to buy back the old house in Qingyun square, but the owner of the house refused to sell it to him even if it was empty.

This is no accident——

She doesn't want to see this person in Qingyun square again.

Although it was evening, the gate of the courtyard was still wide open. Two yellow paper lanterns hung above the gate, and two big characters, zhanzhai, were written on the painted wooden door plaque.

Xu Mingyi took Wu Cui's umbrella and went in alone.

The courtyard was extremely quiet, except for the rain. But in fact, there were no fewer than five people inside and outside the small house watching secretly - every move of the people in the house was supervised by Zhu Xiu and others these days.

Holding an umbrella, Xu Mingyi came to the stone steps outside the hall. A young man in a long Tibetan blue shirt was waiting under the porch of the hall door.

"Zhaozhao, you did come." he smiled in his eyes and spoke softly.

Hearing the faint sense of strategizing in his tone, Xu Mingyi showed a sneer at the bottom of his eyes.

She did come.

Just to take his life.

"Tell me, what you mentioned in your letter -"

The raindrops slipped from the top of the umbrella like a line. In the hazy rain and fog, the girl's black eyes were cold and calm.

Zhan Yunzhu looked at the eyes greedily: "since they are all here, don't you come in and talk."

Then he turned to his side and made a "please" gesture.

Xu Mingyi pressed his impatience in his heart, vigilantly paid attention to everything around, and raised his feet to the stone steps.

Zhan Yunzhu raised his hand to pick up her umbrella and wanted to put it away for her.

Xu Mingyi put it away and held it in his hand.

Zhan Yunzhu took back her hand in the air and still followed her into the hall with a smile.

They sat down at the table. Zhan Yunzhu raised his hand and poured out a hot tea: "the rain is wet and cold. Have a cup of hot tea."

"No, just get to the point."

Zhan Yunzhu smiled: "Zhaozhao... I thought you had changed, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious - this is the Zhaozhao I'm familiar with."

Anxious?

Maybe.

Xu Mingyi sneered in his heart.

She just doesn't want to be disgusted by this hypocritical face.

But this man was really valued by the dog emperor before, and it was just before and after her grandfather's expedition - if it weren't for this and thinking that the other party might know something, she wouldn't come tonight.

"Zhaozhao, you are smarter and more insightful than I thought before." Zhan Yunzhu took care of himself, took up the tea, and said in a slow voice, "since that's the case, you should know. The reason why the emperor advocated to recruit the Li nationality this time is to force the town bus out of Xu Jiajun's military power..."

Of course she knows.

And she also knew that nine times out of ten the idea would have been his proposal.

And now, listening to his tone, there is no doubt about the remaining one or two tenths.

Xu Mingyi slightly clenched the wet umbrella in his hand and said, "so?"

"... unexpectedly, the Duke of Zhenguo was so tough and did not give in at all. Zhaozhao, if you were the emperor, would you dare to keep such a general around?"

Xu Mingyi looked at him. His expression and tone were not affected by his words. He calmly tested, "so the emperor wants to lay hands on my grandfather? What crime is he going to use? Collaborating with the enemy? Or -- he doesn't even bother to find the crime?"

After looking at her for a moment, Zhan Yunzhu suddenly smiled and said, "Zhaozhao, I almost answered you..."

Then he shook his head, smiled and said, "but this conversation is unfair. You can't just ask. I also have a question to ask you."

"..." Xu Mingyi narrowed his eyes slightly.

She had never really wanted to break a man's neck as badly as she was now.
