Chapter 18
"What! It exploded"

"Report to Lord Hou, it exploded. This morning, the giant lion suddenly burst open, and now the whole capital is spreading rumors that our rice shop is unlucky."

The shopkeeper of the rice shop next to him said hastily.

I am afraid that if I speak slowly, I will be punished.

"This must be a stumbling block for the Xiao family envoy! He is a Xiao family, and this Marquis is irreconcilable with him!" The young man, with a jade pendant on his forehead and a pale face, was swearing viciously.

"Go right away, find another lion and put it back. The Marquis wants to see if he can take down the rice store in Kyoto."

The young master's vicious eyes looked into the distance.

The shopkeeper was puzzled for a while: "Master Hou, I'm afraid this won't work!"

"What did you say?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly explained, "The same method is obviously useless the second time. Moreover, our rice shop has been kept at a low price for the past few days. When the lions are put away, I am afraid that our shop will be in the red."

In the past few days, the prices have been kept low, and almost everyone has come to their shop to buy them. The business is almost booming. Who knows, something like this will happen.

The veins on the young master's forehead were bulging, and his eyes were about to pop out, "I don't care, if you can't do this, you all get out of the Hou's mansion."

There was another commotion in the hall.

"Xuan'er."

Outside the hall, a deep voice came. In front of the hall door, there was a middle-aged man who stepped in, "Who do you want to get out of the Hou's mansion?"

When the young master saw the middle-aged man, he suddenly calmed down, and winked at the shopkeeper, telling him to back down first.

"father."

Old Hou Ye sat down, looked at his son, and snorted coldly, "You still know that there is me as a father, and someday you will remember what your father said, and you are not doing your job properly."

"Father!" The little marquis said angrily, "The boy is just doing his job properly and encountered obstacles."

"Oh?"

"It's the Xiao family. My boy recently opened a rice shop and put a stone lion at the entrance of the rice shop as a mascot. But the Xiao family is good. They were jealous of the good business of the boy and even destroyed the mascot. You said boy Are you angry!"

Old Hou Ye's eyes sank, "There is such a thing?"

The young master saw that the old master was willing to listen, and immediately explained the whole situation, "I just thought about it, my son, and taught the Xiao family a lesson, as a warning."

"Inappropriate." Old Hou Ye said: "You must know that the first family and Yan Wang are married, and the current first family is not what it used to be."

"Could it be that the child wants to swallow his anger like this!" A ruthless light flashed in the eyes of the young master.

The Xiao family dared to touch his things, this enmity is irreconcilable.

The old master didn't notice the young master's face, and said earnestly: "Xuan'er, you have to learn to be patient, even if father is a master, you have to give way to King Yan, and this time, someone must be behind the push , will make the city full of storms."

The little Hou Ye was startled, it turned out that the old Hou Ye knew all about it, and a guilty conscience flashed in his eyes.

"Yan Wang. It is likely that Yan Wang intervened in this matter. During this period of time, don't bother with Mi Xing and stay in the mansion." Old Hou Ye said in a deep voice.

Flame King...

A light of unknown meaning flashed in the eyes of the young master, so what about Yan Wang, can Yan Wang help the Xiao family anytime and anywhere?
After the limelight has passed, he still has to deal with the stubborn Xiao family.

As long as the Xiao family is taken down, the other aristocratic families will be easy to deal with. By then, Xifeng country's economy will be in his hands...

Thinking of this, a sloppy smile appeared on the corner of the young master's mouth, as if everything was under control.

In the Flame King's Mansion.

In the past few days, Mo Qiancheng has been very busy, always leaving early and returning late.

After being bored in the palace for two days, Xiao Muyue finally couldn't take it anymore, and took advantage of Mo Qiancheng's absence, she slipped out to wander around again.

Moreover, there is no green wart.

In the backyard of Qunfang Building, Xiao Muyue walked in through a familiar way, and when she passed the kitchen, it happened to be such a coincidence that she ran into an acquaintance.

Qin'er was holding a bowl of medicine, and had just walked out of the kitchen when a shadow appeared in front of her.

Raising his head suddenly, seeing the person in front of him, he felt relieved and frowned again.

"why you?"

Xiao Muyue cracked her lips and smiled, "Why not me, Qin'er!"

Qin'er frowned even deeper, her face full of disgust, "What are you doing here?"

"Of course I came to see your lady."

Hearing that Xiao Muyue came to Hongchen, Qin'er walked around her without saying a word, carrying the soup.

Deng Tuzi, thanks to the generosity of the red girl, she doesn't care about him, this kind of person just pushes his feet, she has seen a lot.

Xiao Muyue hurriedly chased after her, "Hey, how is your young lady doing now?"

"What does the girl have to do with the young master? Besides, not everyone can come to the backyard of this group of Fanglou. Wouldn't it be better for the young master to go to the front and find a girl? Why are you pestering the red girl?"

Xiao Muyue rascally said: "I'll just find your lady, I don't like other people."

Qin'er glared angrily, "My lady is not interested in the young master, please come back, young master."

"You're not your lady, how would you know!"

"I knew it!"

"I don't believe it. I want to talk to your lady."

"Let's go!" Qin'er said angrily.

A sly light flashed across Xiao Muyue's eyes, and she followed the trend.

After taking two steps, Qin'er suddenly stopped, "Hey, that's not right."

Turning around, she glared angrily at Xiao Muyue who was dressed in gray, "Dengtuzi! You don't want to trick me into leading you to see the red girl."

When you're done, turn around and leave.

She was also afraid that Xiao Muyue would follow secretly, and looked back from time to time.

Being scolded angrily, Xiao Muyue rubbed her nose embarrassingly at the same place, and the corners of her mouth curled up, not letting her go?

In front of Qunfang Building.

The tall three-story building is full of people coming and going in front of the building. Even in the daytime, the business is very good.

As soon as Xiao Muyue stepped into the building, she was kicked out by the servant.

"What are you doing, and you don't want to look anywhere. You can come to Qunfang Tower too? Go out."

"Hey—what? Isn't Qunfang Building open for business? Why are they only allowed in and not me?" Xiao Muyue said in a calm voice.

This movement attracted many people. The bustard who was standing in the hall also noticed it. She walked out shaking her incense fan, watched Xiao Muyue from the beginning to the end, and then said contemptuously.

"I said, why is it you again! What? I still think about our girl from Qunfang Building! You have to have money, you are so poor, I see a lot of mother, go back where you should go, don't affect me Business in the building."

The old bustard thought that if she said this, a man would feel ashamed and leave in shame.

However, Xiao Muyue is not a man~
And her poor family has only money left over.

Xiao Muyue pretended to be innocent, and asked hesitantly, "But how much money does Mom want to let me go to see Miss Hong?"
