Marrying blindly and by mistake, the general’s misplaced wife

Chapter 190 Enjoy wealth and honor
The monastery where I settled was very quiet.

Mrs. Chu had a kind look on her face, and the smile on her face deepened a bit as she looked at the two young men walking side by side at the entrance of the courtyard.

She always lives in this courtyard.

Sometimes we eat fast and worship Buddha here for half a month or even a month, and the shopkeepers will send them here if they need to make decisions about the business of shops outside.

He feels more comfortable here than he did at Anyuan Hou Mansion.

This time there was Chu Nanning, and this child was her beloved junior.The originally peaceful life of worshiping Buddha seemed to be a little more fun.

Seeing Chu Nanning in a good mood, her meaningful gaze fell on Xia Chixiao.

Xia Chixiao stepped forward and bowed in salute: "I have met Mrs. Chu, junior Xia Chixiao is polite!"

Mrs. Chu smiled and asked, "Is he the boy from Liyanghou Mansion?"

"Exactly!"

"Is it that Young Master Xia who became a second-rank general at a young age?"

"I am ashamed of myself, this junior. I have received so much grace from the Emperor and am living in the second rank!"

Mrs. Chu smiled: "Master Xia is also here to offer incense today?"

Xia Chixiao said: "I am a soldier in the army. I have killed too much. I come to the Buddha to seek some peace!"

Mrs. Chu looked at him with admiration and smiled slightly: "General Xia is young and protects his family and country. The people he killed were also enemy thieves, and he was protecting the people. There is a saying in Buddhism that punishing evil means promoting good. For a general who protects the country and the people, it is a great merit to kill to stop the enemy!"

Xia Chixiao said: "Thank you, old lady, for your enlightenment."

"Young man, you don't have to be polite. Come, come and have tea."

A maid made tea and sent it over, and Xia Chixiao took it.

"How long have you known General Xia and my Nan Ning?"

"On the day Miss Chu came to Beijing, we happened to meet each other, and we met several times later. I went to the northern border to suppress bandits, and it was thanks to Miss Chu that she told me all the news about the northern border!"

Mrs. Chu laughed when she heard this, and joked: "So, our Nan Ning also has a share of your credit for suppressing the bandits?"

Xia Chixiao nodded seriously.

If it weren't for looking for her, he wouldn't have asked himself to suppress the bandits.

If it weren't for finding her, he wouldn't have returned home like an arrow. He would have cut through the trouble quickly and exploited himself, making battle plans one after another to eliminate the bandits in the north in the shortest possible time.

Mrs. Chu looked at Chu Nanning with a smile: "Look, General Xia said you still have some credit for it!"

Chu Nanning was also funny. She was drinking tea, but she didn't take these words seriously.

Mrs. Chu added: "You young people must not have much patience for the afternoon lecture. The scenery in the temple is very nice, and it can also be regarded as a place for gardening! There are two monks of unknown generation in Nanshan Temple. If you are destined, you Let’s see you! Maybe you will gain something!”

Chu Nanning said: "I have already met Master Wuwu."

The old lady was surprised: "You asked for a signature? What did you ask for?"

Chu Nanning responded: "Ask as you like!"

The old lady was concerned: "Master Wuwu usually finds someone who is destined to interpret your signature. How did he interpret your signature?"

Chu Nanning looked sideways and saw Xia Chixiao looking over with glaring eyes. She laughed: "Master said, this world is very good and you can enjoy wealth and honor!"

The old lady was happy: "It seems that our Nan Ning got one with a signature."

Chu Nanning nodded with a smile.

Now that you've come, let's make peace with it. Since you can't go back, let's enjoy wealth and honor in this world!
The old lady turned around again: "General Xia also asked for a signature?"

Xia Chixiao thought of the one he grabbed at random and put it in his sleeve without reading the contents of the signature. He said warmly: "Junior also asked for the signature, but I didn't meet Master Wuwu."

I only saw Master Wujian, who didn't look like a monk. The two were close friends in the north.

The old lady felt a little pity and said with a smile: "It is rare to see Master Wuwu. I often come to the temple to practice meditation, and I have only seen Master Wuwu three times in the past 15 years!"

Xia Chixiao didn't feel regretful. He didn't come here today just to ask for a fortune. When he saw Chu Nanning, the purpose of his trip had been achieved and he was very satisfied.

It's just that I can't express my feelings, so I have to suppress it and continue to get along with Chu Nanning's friends.

He nodded: "This junior and the master are temporarily separated from each other!"

Anyuanhou Mansion.

Chu Baikui and his wife waited outside the study for a long time.

The waiting time is always difficult, especially when that sound keeps coming from the study.

They heard Chu Yunzhao's unbearable screams, heard her uncontrollable cries, heard her begging for mercy, and heard her cries getting louder and more pitiful.

But the two people's feet seemed to be nailed by nails, and neither of them moved, and they had no intention of rescuing Chu Yunzhao.

They lowered their heads and hid in the shadows of the trees, as if this could hide their inability to hear.

There were footsteps and voices on the way.

The two people who had ignored the sound in the study were alarmed by the sound.

They rushed to greet the sound.

At this time, they only had one thought: some unseen guest had accidentally broken into this place, but they could not let them come forward to disturb the young prince's interest and ruin Yun Zhao's future.

If they had known that the young prince would come today, why would they have invited those useless people.

The two of them walked over quickly and were about to speak out to stop the intruder, but Chu Baikui was surprised.

Is this King Xuan?
How could he come?

Today's chrysanthemum appreciation party post has not been sent out a few times, and it is impossible to invite such a noble person.

However, Chu Baikui didn't know how to react when he saw Shang Jingyu chatting and laughing with several young men.

This person was also present at Chu Nanning's return banquet last time.

But that time was different, but that time it was grand, this time it was extremely perfunctory, and this person came uninvited again?
Shang Jingyu raised his eyes and saw Chu Baikui looking at him in astonishment. He said lightly: "Master Chu is not honest. Isn't there a banquet at your house? Why don't you see any of your masters?"

Chu Baikui smiled apologetically and stepped forward: "I didn't know that His Highness Prince Xuan came here in such a grand way. It's really disrespectful to welcome him from afar. Sorry, rude! Because this is a gathering of young people, I was afraid of disturbing everyone's interest, so I asked the children to stay in the hall. Guest. Poor hospitality!"

"Young Master Chu is not in the hall! You didn't see the master's house, so I took these dear friends out for a walk."

The family backgrounds of those few are not obvious. Some are the descendants of this fate, and some are from families of military commanders. The person with the highest official position in the family is not much different from Chu Baikui. This is also the reason why Chu Baikui is perfunctory.

Chu Baikui smiled and held his hands in his hands: "My child acted carelessly and caused a joke. It's my fault! Your Highness, Prince Xuan, and some of my nephews, please come here!"

He wanted to push people away.

Suddenly, Shang Jingyu pricked his ears.

He said strangely: "Master Chu, I seem to have heard someone calling for help."

This place is five or six feet away from the study, and Chu Baikui himself didn't hear a sound.He hurriedly interrupted and said with a laugh: "Your Highness is joking, how could anyone call for help? If so, it must be the chrysanthemums in the garden who are amazed by the talents of my nephews and nieces and are praising them!"

Shang Jingyu shook his head: "No, I really heard it. The voice was over there." He pointed in the direction of the study and walked over there.

Chu Baikui stopped him hastily: "Your Highness, Your Highness, there really is no such thing! That is Xiaohou's study, and no one is allowed to enter or leave on weekdays."

Shang Jingyu frowned, and then looked at Chu Baikui, his gaze became a little oppressive: "Marquis Anyuan, you are hiding it like this, what secrets are there in the study? I still have to take a look. No!" With that said, he pushed Chu Baikui away and strode towards the study.

Chu Baikui was so anxious that he kept blocking the front.This time even Zhao Yuan stepped forward.

He lowered his voice and said: "His Royal Highness King Xuan, this is a family matter. Please show your respect!"

Shang Jingyu's face became darker and he felt more oppressed, "Marquis Anyuan, where is the eldest lady of your house?"

He turned around but didn't see Chu Nanning.

As for the sounds coming from the study, he had sharp ears and eyes, and he really heard some of them, but they were not very clear.

He was worried that Chu Nanning was being plotted against.

After all, Anyuanhou's ruthlessness and shamelessness are no secret in the capital.

housework?

You can guess what is happening in the study just by listening to the sounds.

Household affairs that made Anyuan Hou Chu Baikui and Mrs. Hou stand guard outside the study?

Several people with sharp ears who came with Shang Jingyu also heard a sound, but most of them were at a loss.

Chu Baikui said hurriedly: "Nan Ning went to Nanshan Temple to offer incense!"

Shang Jingyu's face looked ugly. Would he believe such nonsense?

Although he didn't receive the post, he knew that it was sent in the name of Chu Nanning. How could Chu Nanning not be at home?The reasons for lying are so poor.

He said solemnly: "Get out of the way!"

Chu Baikui didn't give in.

He didn't dare to let it go, he couldn't let it go, but he couldn't help it.

At this moment, his whole body was shaking.

The young prince of Zhennan Palace has a distinguished status, but compared with this serious prince and prince, he is inferior.

But a good thing has already happened inside. What if the young prince is disturbed and becomes unhappy and refuses to acknowledge his debt?What should I do if a good thing is ruined by King Xuan?
Shang Jingyu pushed the man aside, and when Chu and Baikui were about to step forward, Jiang Yu took a step forward and pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword.

This threatening action made Chu Baikui freeze on the spot.

Seeing Shang Jingyu striding towards the study, Chu Baikui was tangled in his heart. Finally, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward quickly. Faced with Jiang Yu's murderous eyes, when Shang Jingyu reached out to push the door open, he knelt down. Go down.

He lowered his voice, humble and flattering: "Your Highness, there is a little girl inside, the little girl Yun Zhaoyu, and her fiancé!"

Shang Jingyu: "..."

By now we were at the door, and as we got closer, the sounds inside became clearer and even more unpleasant to hear.

He also heard clearly that it was not his little niece's voice.

But Shang Jingyu was also shocked on the outside and tender on the inside.

What was Chu Baikui saying just now?Are they the second young lady of the Chu family and her fiancé?

In the study?Japanese prostitution?
An unmarried daughter, in her parents' house, in her father's study, doing this shameful thing with her fiancé?

The tutoring and family style of the Anyuan Hou Mansion are really eye-opening.

I heard that the ancestors of the Anyuan Hou Mansion were also strong-willed men with a pure and upright family tradition, but now they have fallen to this?
Chu Baikui's voice was low, but as Shang Jingyu moved forward, several others who came with him also followed him. They also heard it, and they all looked like they were struck by lightning.

This simply refreshed their three views.

They frowned, and two of them even bowed to Shang Jingyu, then turned their heads and left without looking back.

Shang Jingyu didn't push the door open again, but took several steps back in disgust.

The fiancé of Miss Chu Er is Du Mingda, right?

Listening to Chu Yunzhao's pitiful begging for mercy and help, Shang Jingyu's expression was complicated. He looked at Chu Baikui and said, "Marquis Anyuan, your concubine seems to be in pain. Aren't you afraid that someone will actually die?"

Chu Baikui smiled sarcastically.

Shang Jingyu said: "Where is Chu Nanning?"

Chu Baikui had a sad face, why did both of them ask that wild girl?
Didn't he answer just now?
Does His Highness King Xuan have bad ears?
However, he did not dare not to answer, so he had to answer again: "I really went to Nanshan Temple to offer incense!"

"Well, why is she going to Nanshan Temple to offer incense? And if she doesn't go early or late, it just happens to be today?"

"My mother has been praying to Buddha all year round, and it was time to go to Nanshan Temple to fulfill her vows. Nan Ning was filial, so she went with him."

Shang Jingyu made sure that Chu Baikui was not lying, then glanced at him lightly and said, "Marquis Anyuan, you still know how to play!"

Chu Baikui wiped his sweat and smiled: "Your Highness, Xiaohou, please accompany you to the front hall to drink tea!"

But we can't let him be here anymore. If the young prince is finished and comes out to see this person, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

Shang Jingyu said calmly: "No need, I am an uninvited guest. I come uninvited and leave uninvited! You'd better take care of yourself!"

With that said, he stopped looking at Chu Baikui, turned around and left.

Several people who came with him also left together.

Chu Baikui stood on the spot and wiped his sweat. I heard that His Highness Prince Xuan also had an indifferent and moody temper.Fortunately, he didn't mind his own business today.

Looking at the study, he saw that there seemed to be a lot of interest inside. He thought for a while and chased in the direction of Shang Jingyu.While chasing, he said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, let's have tea in the front hall!"

Shang Jingyu ignored him and naturally left the house without entering the hall.

Those few also left with him.

Chu Baikui chased him to the door of the house and saw only the rear of Shang Jing's carriage.

He sighed, who knew His Highness Prince Xuan was so shameless?He would condescend to come even without an invitation.He couldn't welcome it, so you can't blame him, right?
A small chrysanthemum feast, the young prince came, and so did His Highness King Xuan.Who said Anyuanhou Mansion was in decline?This is going to be developed!
Although he felt it was a pity not to keep King Xuan, he thought that the rice was already cooked in the study, so the pity disappeared.

He hurried back to the study.

At this time, there was no sound in the study.

Chu Baikui looked at Zhao Yuan and whispered: "What's going on inside? Is it over?"

Zhao Yuan shook her head, she didn't know, and she didn't dare to look.

Chu Baikui listened closely again, and continued to whisper to Zhao Yuan: "Why is there no movement?"

Zhao Yuan also whispered: "Is it done?"

"Get in!"

There was an annoyed voice from inside.

Chu Baikui and Zhao Yuan pushed the door open obediently.

Zhao Yuan poked her head in first and saw what was going on inside. Her face suddenly changed and her eyes were shocked. She turned around and pushed Chu Baikui, who was following behind, back a few steps and whispered: "Master Hou, please wait a moment!"

With that said, he rushed into the door and slammed the door shut.
