Chapter 140 Sudden concern
Xie Sifan leaned lazily on the handrail of the stairs.
Cherry's eyes were red, and her hands were tightly clutching the hem of her clothes. When she sold her body, it was less than a hundred taels, but when she redeemed her body, it cost ten thousand taels. This clearly refused to let her go, no matter how rich the young master in front of her was, Nor would he spend so much silver to redeem a brothel woman.
The old bustard stood aside with a smile on his face. According to the boss's instructions, if he wanted to redeem the girl from here, he would have to pay at least a thousand taels. For a young and beautiful cherry, 1 taels is actually not much. If she If he could stay here, he might earn more than this.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xie Sifan took out the bank note from his sleeve and handed it to the madam: "Bring her deed of sale."
Cherry stood there, staring blankly at Xie Sifan, she would not be able to earn so much money in the rest of her life even if she worked like a cow.
The old bustard smiled and personally took the deed of selling the cherries and handed them over to Xie Sifan.
"Let's go, I'm hungry."
Xie Sifan glanced at Long Ji behind him with a gloomy face, he didn't know what medicine he took wrongly, his face smelled so bad.
Cherry hurriedly followed behind Xie Sifan.
"I want to go to a restaurant, or go back home to eat." Long Ji said coldly.
Xie Sifan put his arm on Long Ji's shoulder: "You take Miss Cherry home first, I'll go to the palace to eat."
Cherry looked at Xie Sifan in shock when he heard the words. He just said that he was going to eat in the palace, so his identity...
Long Ji said "Yes", turned around and glanced at Cherry: "Follow me closely" and then walked towards Zhenwang Mansion without looking back.
I don't know what kind of temper this guy is playing, Xie Sifan looked at Long Ji's back and sighed, then turned and walked towards the palace.
Cherry followed Long Ji to Prince Zhen's mansion. She was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. The person who redeemed her was Prince Zhen. I heard some officials mentioned it before, but I didn't expect the person who dared to beat the prince and quarrel with the emperor. It's so young.
"You can stay in the side room." After speaking, Long Ji walked towards the study with a sullen face.
The guards on the side stepped forward helplessly, and pointed the way for Cherry. There are many men in the palace, but few women. Some of them are in the backyard and rarely come to the front yard.
Cherry saluted slightly and walked towards the side room.
Xie Sifan entered the palace unimpeded, but unfortunately, Yuancheng was discussing matters with the ministers and had no time to talk to him, so he had to go to the imperial dining room to find food by himself.
After eating and drinking enough to come back, as soon as he walked near the imperial study, he heard the sound of Yuan Cheng laughing.
"The concubine gave birth to a son, she is smiling so happily." Xie Sifan muttered.
Seeing Xie Sifan coming, the father-in-law at the side hurried forward to stop him.
"Prince Zhen, the emperor ordered you to come back later." The father-in-law smiled.
Xie Sifan sat directly on the steps: "Alright, anyway, I'm idle, so I'll just sit here and wait."
Yuan Cheng is discussing the marriage with the ministers. The princess of the ancient country will arrive in the Dongyuan Kingdom tomorrow, and Yuan Zong will welcome her in person.
Xie Sifan sat on the steps, frowning slightly, tomorrow is the day for Xiaoxiang's father-in-law to change his dressing, if Yuanzong is not here, Xiaoxiang's father-in-law will definitely be suspicious.
"what--"
Xie Sifan yelled, making the father-in-law next to him tremble.
Yuan Cheng heard Xie Sifan's cry and hurriedly got up and walked out: "What's wrong."
Xie Sifan raised his head and looked at Yuancheng: "Father, why don't you let me go for such a good thing as welcoming the princess?"
Long Cheng bent down and directly pinched Xie Sifan's face: "What a fuss, if you want to go, just go with King Qi."
"I want to go by myself. I haven't even gotten married yet. I'm afraid I won't be able to take advantage of my married life if I let Brother Zong do it like this." Xie Sifan said playfully and stuck out his tongue.
Long Cheng thought about it and felt that what Xie Sifan said was not unreasonable.
"Okay, you can go tomorrow." Yuan Cheng straightened his waist and glanced at the minister in the imperial study.
The ministers looked at Yuan Cheng with surprised expressions.
Longcheng sighed helplessly. When he couldn't talk to Xie Sifan, his voice would be lowered unconsciously, for fear of scaring him. For the first time, he experienced the feeling of being a father. This feeling is amazing, even in His own son, Yuan Zong, had never experienced it either.
Xie Sifan got up and patted the ashes on his buttocks: "Then I'll go back first. By the way, father, the braised pig's trotters in the imperial dining room are good. I asked my father-in-law to send me a portion at night. I didn't eat enough."
Longcheng raised his leg and kicked Xie Sifan's ass: "Get out."
Xie Sifan didn't take it seriously, and walked out of the palace swaggeringly.
"At dinner, remember to send braised pig's trotters to Zhenwang's mansion, as well as braised lion's head, osmanthus cake, and plum blossom dew." After finishing speaking, Long Cheng went into the imperial study to continue discussing with the ministers.
After Xie Sifan returned to Zhenwang Mansion, he learned that Long Ji hadn't had lunch, and had been reading in the study since he came back.
"Xiao Longlong." Xie Sifan opened the door of the study and poked his head out to take a look at Long Ji.
Long Ji cast a cold face, cast a glance, then continued to look down at the book.
Xie Sifan walked to Long Ji's side, reached out and grabbed the book in his hand: "Tomorrow I'm going to meet the princess of the ancient country, you go with me."
"No." Long Ji refused without thinking.
Xie Sifan raised his eyebrows slightly, something was wrong with Long Ji after he entered the brothel, and he didn't know what happened to him.
"Going to the brothel, are you unhappy that you didn't meet a girl?" Xie Sifan tilted his head and asked in doubt.
Long Ji leaned on the chair, looked at Xie Sifan and said, "If you had a choice, would you choose to get married and have children, or would you choose to be with me?"
Xie Sifan laughed out loud suddenly, he didn't have any self-knowledge to ask such a question.
"If I had a choice, of course I would choose to be with the man next to me." After Xie Sifan finished speaking, he looked at Long Ji with a smile on his face: "It's me, hold grudges, I will never forget the harm you caused me , is in the bottom of my heart every moment.”
Long Ji's disappointment was written all over his face.
"Then what are we now?" Long Ji looked up at Xie Sifan.
Xie Sifan touched his chin, he couldn't just say that he raised a high-level duck, even if he said it, he probably wouldn't understand.
"Instead of being by my side, why not go back to Wen Xiaguo, forget me, forget everything, and start over."
Long Ji hugged Xie Sifan directly in his arms: "You know I don't want to, and I won't do that, so don't say such hurtful things anymore."
"I can forgive you, but I won't accept you anymore. Forgiving and accepting are two different things. Our current relationship is the most familiar but also the most unfamiliar." Xie Sifan pushed Long Ji away after finishing speaking: "It's better to stay by my side. It's better to start over from scratch, I'm serious."
"I'll let you slowly accept me. I'd rather stay by your side and suffer anger than leave you." After speaking, Long Ji stood up and walked out of the study.
Xie Sifan sat on the chair, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, but at least, he can't forget the harm Long Ji brought to him now.
Long Ji took a hot bath, then prepared the clothes Xie Sifan was going to wear tomorrow and delivered them to Eunuch Xiaoxiang's house.
Eunuch Xiaoxiang still didn't get better, so he could only lie quietly on the bed.
"Where's Fanfan?" Mr. Xiaoxiang asked openly.
Long Ji, who was tidying the floor, said coldly: "In the study."
"Have you quarreled?" Eunuch Xiao Xiang knew it from Long Ji's expression.
Long Ji nodded slightly, and then left the room.
When Xie Sifan came back, he didn't say much when he saw the arranged clothes and floor coverings.
"Long Ji is actually changing. He made up for the wrong things he did before. Give him another chance." Eunuch Xiao Xiang persuaded.
Xie Sifan lay on the floor and said in a muffled voice, "Didn't I always give him chances?"
Eunuch Xiaoxiang shook his head: "You are undoubtedly torturing him and yourself by giving him a chance like this. Instead of vacillating, it's better to let nature take its course."
Xie Sifan understood what Eunuch Xiaoxiang meant, so he nodded.
"By the way, brother Zong will change your medicine tomorrow. I have something to go out." Xie Sifan didn't say anything about the princess of the ancient country. With the intelligence of Mr. Xiaoxiang, as long as he mentions the princess of the ancient country, he will be able to guess. He didn't know the purpose of her coming, so he decided not to mention it.
"It's fine to let the servants come. He will arouse suspicion when he often goes in and out of the Prince's Mansion." Eunuch Xiao Xiang was very worried, fearing that the emperor would know about their affairs.
Xie Sifan got up and poured a glass of water: "Don't worry, brother Zong has always been calm in his work, so don't worry about it."
Although Xie Sifan said so, Eunuch Xiaoxiang was still very worried, at least now he can still see Yuanzong, if the emperor finds out, I'm afraid they won't even have the chance to meet each other.
"Fanfan."
Xie Sifan got up and opened the door, and saw Long Ji standing in front of the door with a food box.
"Dinner from the palace." Long Ji put the food box on the table.
"Don't go, let's eat together, you haven't eaten at noon." Xie Sifan said, took out the food from the food box and put it on the table.
Long Ji hesitated for a moment and sat on the chair.
Xie Sifan filled some and sat down by the bed: "Brother Xiang, you also have to eat well, you know, don't get hurt when the time comes, your body is boasting."
Eunuch Xiaoxiang didn't want to eat it at first, but Xie Sifan looked at him with a distressed expression, so he opened his mouth and ate some.
According to the system, as long as the medicine is changed, it won't take long for Eunuch Xiaoxiang's injury to heal slowly.
In fact, Xie Sifan doesn't want Eunuch Xiaoxiang to recover at this time, it's better to wait until the matter with the princess is finished before he recovers.
Long Ji was silently eating at the side.
Xie Sifan sat next to Long Ji after feeding Eunuch Xiaoxiang: "This pig's trotter is very delicious, you should eat more." Saying this, Xie Sifan put the pig's trotter into Longji's bowl.
Long Ji was flattered by Xie Sifan's sudden concern.
"Don't worry, I will accompany you tomorrow."
Long Ji thought that Xie Sifan's sudden concern for him was to let him accompany him to meet the princess of the ancient country.
Xie Sifan put his hand on Long Ji's leg and exerted a little force: "It's just a few shops, even if you don't accompany me, I can handle it myself."
