Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Picking up the purse again

Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Picking up the purse againThe guard did not answer, showing an embarrassment.

He was a small guard, how dare he interfere in the affairs of the palace.

Xu Qi'an did not feel embarrassed, searched around, and said: "Zhong Li?"

"I know, I will go back to the Imperial Observatory first." Zhong Li popped his head out from the wall and said obediently.

"Will there be any accidents on the way back?" Xu Qi'an asked.

"Listen, let's leave it to fate." Zhong Li said tremblingly.

The guard looked at the woman in a linen robe and disheveled hair, and always felt that this woman exuded a pitiful temperament, which made people feel particularly pity.

"Da Da Da..."

Soon, Tongluo led the mare back, Xu Qi'an touched the mare's mane, and it snorted and nudged its owner.

"Bless you." Xu Qi'an touched Zhong Li's head.

She had the experience of returning to the Imperial Observatory alone several times, and nothing happened. Xu Qian'an estimated that there might be a small disaster, but not a big one, and this place is not far from the Imperial Observatory.

It's only half an hour away.

He rode on his beloved mare and drove side by side with the guards of Shaoyin Garden towards the imperial city.

The guards waved their whips to drive away the passers-by, and occasionally observed Xu Yinluo, the favorite of the princess, with a blank expression and focused eyes on the road. Although he was speechless, his eyebrows were solemn.

The harem of Emperor Yuan Jing must be in chaos. In order to avenge the murder of her brother, the queen would never let Concubine Chen go, no, Concubine Chen... and the latter had long resented the queen and regarded her as an enemy for so many years...

"Damn it, why does a little Yinluo have to worry about Emperor Yuan Jing's family affairs? It's because your daughter is so beautiful." Xu Qian'an cursed inwardly.

He rode into the imperial city at full speed, but was stopped by the imperial guards at the palace gate. Lin'an's guards were returning normally, but he was not qualified to bring people into the palace.

Xu Qi'an showed the waist jade that Bian Bian had given him, and immediately a imperial guard came over and led Xu Qi'an into the palace.

According to the rules of the palace, if someone in the palace summoned a foreign minister to enter the palace, the imperial guards needed to accompany him to ensure that he did not run around.

In silence all the way, he walked quickly through the palace gate, the square, and the palace wall, and finally arrived at Shaoyin Garden in Lin'an.

The imperial guards waited outside the gate of Shaoyin Garden, and Bian Bian's guards took Xu Qi'an inside. After passing through the front yard, they met Lin'an in the reception hall.

The second prince was still wearing a complicated and exquisite red skirt, with gorgeous jewelry such as gold step-shakes and agate hairpins in his bun, and even a small phoenix crown that was not in accordance with etiquette.

With a round oval face, charming and affectionate peach blossom eyes, she sat there expressionlessly, like an oriental Lolita doll made by a master.

Seeing that she was fine, Xu Qi'an let out a silent breath: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" Lin'an waved his hand, dismissed the guards and personal maids, leaving only Xu Qi'an.

Bian Bian stared at him for a moment, and cried "Wow", complaining in a wronged voice: "Huai Qing wants to kill me."

....I seem to understand something! Xu Qi'an sighed.

Just say, as the most beloved daughter of Emperor Yuan Jing, what crisis can Lin'an face.

This is what the so-called life and death is like, it's really something she would do.

"You went to the princess to cause trouble again?"

Bian Bian cried and glared at her: "What do you mean I went to cause trouble? Explain clearly."

Xu Qian'an reorganized his words: "Did the second prince go to Princess Huaiqing to seek justice again?"

Bian Bian made a strong "hmm" sound and sniffed: "The queen, that vicious woman, wanted to kill my mother. I went to Huaiqing to argue, but she was also a black-hearted person. She actually beat me."

"Hit you?" Xu Qian'an frowned and looked at Lin'an, "Where?"

"She beat me with a cane."

Bian Bian rolled up his sleeves, revealing a white and tender arm, with two shallow whip marks on the snowy skin.

"It's so hateful!"

Xu Qian'an was filled with righteous indignation, his hair stood on end, and he leaned on the railing. The rain stopped, and he looked up and howled to the sky. Lin'an's shame had not been avenged, and when would the ministers' hatred be eliminated?

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely uphold justice for you and will not let Huai Qing off easily."

"Then you don't have to do anything..."

Seeing Xu Qi'an's indignation and his attitude of humiliating the master and dying for the minister, Bian Bian was very moved and said, "Huai Qing is a princess after all. If you act privately, you will be shot by the palace guards."

Thank God, Your Highness, your IQ is still online... Xu Qi'an shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, if you lose a hair, it is a great shame for me. Even if I die, I will find trouble with Huai Qing."

Bian Bian nodded slowly, sniffed, and said, "I asked you to come to the palace today for this matter. I thought about it, I could have resisted at that time, I could have jumped up and grabbed Hua Huai Qing's face, but I didn't perform well.

"After thinking about it, it must be because I don't have a capable guard around me. You accompany me to Huai Qing's Chunteng Garden again. "

....Xu Qian'an's expression froze, and he felt that he had shot himself in the foot.

"Ahem!"

He cleared his throat, "Your Highness, please be patient and tell me what happened, so that I

can think about it."

Think about how to sneak away quietly... He thought silently.

Biao Biao told Xu Qian'an everything about the fights in the harem after the case of Concubine

Fu was over.

As expected, the Queen hated Concubine Chen and made things difficult for her. Only then did everyone know that the Queen was more proficient in all kinds of martial arts in the harem

than anyone else.

It was just that there was no place for her to use her skills before.

Every morning, she asked Concubine Chen to pay her respects, and then she would find faults and order her maids to do it for her, "criticizing" Concubine Chen, making her a laughing

stock in the harem.

There were also a series of corporal punishments such as kneeling and hand hoop. Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Do you think the Queen is a vicious person? "Speaking of hatred, Bian Bian slammed the

table in anger.

Your mother killed someone's brother, so of course the queen will fight to the death with your mother, even though the king's uncle deserved to die... Xu Qian'an frowned and said,

"Anything else?"

"Of course, just yesterday, my mother was suddenly poisoned and was dying. The servants of Jingxiu Palace hurried to ask for the imperial physician, but who knew that the imperial physician was snatched away by the servants of Fengqi Palace."

"Ah? What happened later?" Xu Qian'an was shocked.

Bian Bian said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, my mother's palace has a reserve of antidote

elixirs, which saved her life."

Xu Qian'an said "Oh" meaningfully.

The poisoning should be a self-torture trick of Concubine Chen, who framed the queen and

lost her brother, so she chose to fight hard, so she snatched the imperial physician. Concubine

Chen had no choice but to take out the antidote to save herself.

"What was your majesty's reaction?" he asked.

"Father didn't say anything. "Bian Bian frowned and snorted to express his dissatisfaction.

Well, Emperor Yuan Jing should know everything, so he doesn't care and just lets them make trouble... It can't be said that he didn't care, at least I haven't seen any signs of Duke Wei's action for the time being... If it was Duke Wei who took action, Concubine Chen might have

been dead.

Xu Qiyan guessed that Emperor Yuan Jing had secretly warned Wei Yuan.

It's my business for my women to fight to death. You, an outsider, are not allowed to

interfere!

Xu Qiyan felt that Emperor Yuan Jing was a scumbag, and he was much better than him because he was now actively dealing with the fire in the harem.

Xu Qiyan pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "Why does the queen target

Concubine Chen, Your Highness, do you know?"

Bian Bian pretended not to hear, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Xu Qiyan understood and sighed in his heart.

"Let's go, I'm going to fight Huaiqing."

As he said that, Lin An pulled out a cane from under the table.

You are already ready!! Xu Qiyan was stunned.

"Your Highness, calm down, calm down..."

He was about to persuade him, but Lin An pursed his lips and stared at him: "I know that your

heart is actually with Huai Qing."

"Nonsense!"

Xu Qiyan reacted strongly, patted his chest and said: "Go if you want to."

The two of them, along with the palace maids and guards, headed straight for Huaiqing's

Chunteng Garden.

In the warm morning sunshine, new buds sprouted from the branches. Huaiqing, wearing a simple palace skirt, sat in the pavilion, holding a book in her hand.

Her back was graceful, her sitting posture was straight, and her black hair was against the white palace skirt, highlighting a simple and intellectual literary atmosphere.

Xu Qian'an and Lin'an came aggressively, but the cold Princess was unaware of it. She lowered

her head to read a book, and just ordered the guards on both sides in a light tone:

"If any idle people disturb my reading pleasure, they will be killed without mercy." Several guards pressed their knives with one hand and also rushed forward aggressively. They

did not dare to take action against Princess Lin'an, and transferred their hostility to Xu

Qian'an. Princess Lin'an was certainly not an idle person, but this little silver gong was an object that

could be killed without mercy.

Xu Qiyan stopped immediately.

When Lin'an saw Xu Qiyan being forced to retreat, she immediately became timid. Without

the support of the dog servant, she would definitely not dare to fight Huaiqing alone.

So she pointed at Huaiqing with a rattan stick and scolded: "Stinky Huaiqing, come out."

"Huaiqing, get out of here."

"Shameless Huaiqing, come and compete with me if you have the guts." Princess Huaiqing ignored her and read with relish.

A quarter of an hour later, Bian Bian took Xu Qiyan away in disgrace.

Xu Qiyan turned his head and looked at Bian Bian, who was stern and grinding his teeth in

frustration, and sighed: "Forget it, Your Highness, the gap is too big."

The IQ gap is too big. Huaiqing broke the deadlock with a simple command.

This is good, so I won't have to be embarrassed when the time comes... His Highness Huaiqing is really my sweet little cotton-padded jacket, who easily solved the problem for me... But you're going too far by hitting Lin'an... Xu Qi'an thought with relief.

Bian Bian was unwilling to give up, so she stamped her feet and her fiery red skirt swayed.

After sending His Highness Lin'an back to Shaoyin Garden, playing Gobang with her and telling her stories, Xu Qi'an said goodbye and left near noon.

He was an outsider, and Lin'an was an unmarried princess, so they couldn't hang out for too long, let alone have meals together.

"I'll invite you to the palace to play in the Japanese palace." Bian Bian said.

For the same reason, she couldn't often summon an outsider to the palace, which would

easily cause rumors.

After leaving the palace, Xu Qi'an took back her little mare from the Yulin Guards and rode her "da da da" to the outside of the imperial city.

"The conflict between the Queen and Concubine Chen is definitely unresolvable. Concubine

Chen, a woman who cannot defeat the Queen herself, will definitely instigate Lin'an and use her as a spear against the Queen."

"According to Huaiqing, Lin'an was dumber when she was a girl than she is now. She would hit wherever Concubine Chen pointed. If Huaiqing doesn't fight back, she will be bullied. Once she fights back, Lin'an will be beaten, and all this is exactly what Concubine Chen wants to

see.

"Because Lin'an is favored, she was bullied. Emperor Yuan Jing will not sit idly by... If Lin'an is bullied again, the situation like today will definitely happen again.

"I am the great Sea King, I should not be led by the nose by the fish. I have to think of a way, a

way..."

All the way back to the night watchman's office, Xu Qian'an couldn't think of a solution. He

slapped the mare's butt in anger. It was all her fault. It was shaking and shaking, which made him upset and unable to calm down.

After lunch, he took two gongs to patrol the streets of the outer city. Because the distance was

too far, he had to ride a horse instead of walking.

Xu Qian'an was most familiar with the South City. The old house of the Xu family was just in the south, and there was also a health hall here, which was the territory of No. 6 Hengyuan. "Hey, I don't know when I can restore my passive skill of the European Emperor. I have to give

money to Master Hengyuan regularly for charity..." Thinking of this, Xu Qian'an was very melancholy.

The white marble arena in the South City was built on the square facing the river. In just two

or three days, the surface of the arena was riddled with holes: there were footprints left

during the fight, and there were cracks from knife and axe.

There were two Jianghu people fighting on the arena. One was a muscular rough man with a black iron stick in his hand; the other was a swordsman with good facial features. The two sides fought back and forth, and had a lot of fun.

Many people who were just watching the show and experienced Jianghu people gathered

around the arena. Speaking of weapons, ordinary people in the martial arts world will have their weapons confiscated before entering the city, and then the government will issue you a voucher. When you want to leave the city, you can take the voucher to retrieve your weapons. Since the appearance of the arena, the government has relaxed its control. If you want to

compete, you can go to the government to apply for the return of your weapons, but you must return them to the government the next day, otherwise you will be wanted by the whole city. And some young and female knights from famous sects can rely on the endorsement of their

own sects to not surrender their weapons, but if they kill someone, the sect will be held responsible.

Xu Qian'an looked around the whole place and didn't find any better female knights.

"Mr. Xu, the people watching the show outside are all ordinary people. Those with status and position are all in the teahouses and restaurants around." Tongluo explained.

You understand a lot, little brother... Xu Qian'an immediately glanced at the teahouses and

restaurants around, and there were indeed many spectators on the second-floor observation

deck.

"Let's go, let's find a restaurant... let's go to that one." Xu Qi'an saw a particularly beautiful

female knight.

He just took a step, and suddenly felt a hard lump on his foot. He looked down and saw that it

was a purse.

The purse was light green, embroidered with patterns of the same color, and an orchid, with a

faint fragrance, as if it was a woman's personal belonging.

Xu Qi'an was stunned, thinking that my money-picking buff was 404 by the old man in

charge.

"Heavy, it's quite heavy."

Xu Qi'an smiled and put it in his arms, and then found that a child next to him was looking at him, as if he was annoyed why he didn't see the purse, but was beaten by someone else. "What are you looking at, whose child?" Xu Qi'an raised his hand and pretended to hit the child, and the child turned around and ran away in fear.

Xu Qi'an laughed, thinking that you are really brave, and I still want to buy you a string of

candied haws.

After entering the restaurant, he found a table on the second floor and asked the waiter to

serve wine and food. Xu Qi'an had no interest in the fight on the ring. He squinted his eyes and

looked at the female knight at the next table.

She wore a pink gauze skirt, revealing her white neck and delicate collarbone. Her clothes

were not thick, highlighting the size of her towering chest.

Her dressing style was very bold, and her makeup was equally exquisite. Her flaming red lips and big almond eyes were bright and shining. Her facial features were naturally very beautiful, but her charm and coquettishness were what attracted men the most. If Biao Biao was a serious nightclub queen, then this woman was a serious nightclub queen.

The seductive woman noticed Xu Qi'an's naked look, but she was not angry. Instead, she threw a coquettish eye. The young knights at the same table with her turned their heads to

look.

After seeing Xu Qi'an's night watchman's uniform, she turned back pretending to be nothing.

The waiter held beef, peanuts, mutton and other side dishes, as well as a jar of fine wine.

"My lord, please enjoy your food and wine."

"Waiter, give the opposite table a jar of 1982 Lafite, I'll treat you." Xu Qiyan winked at the

charming woman.

The waiter didn't understand and was stunned for a moment.

"A jar of Spring."

This is the most expensive wine in the restaurant.

"Okay."

The young men felt sour after noticing the interaction between Xu Qiyan and the "goddess",

but they didn't dare to get angry at the night watchman, so they took their anger out on the

waiter, angrily saying:

"Waiter, another five pounds of beef." "God, our store doesn't have that much beef."

"Why can others order two pounds, but we can only order one pound for so many people?"

Beef was a luxury in this era. They were all old and sick cows, and they had to be approved by

the government to be slaughtered. In addition, the business has been very good recently, so

there is not much stock in the restaurant. Xu Qi'an ordered two kilograms. Unexpectedly, the waiter rolled his eyes and said with the arrogance of the people in Beijing:

"I am an official in the government. You must not have looked in the mirror when you went

out this morning."

The two Tongluo laughed: "These fools."

At this time, Xu Qi'an saw a woman going upstairs, her eyes swept around the hall, and then

walked straight to his side, looking down at him, glaring at him aggressively.

"Give me back my purse."
