Concubine Agent: My lord, stop pretending

Chapter 445 Paving the way is not real

The two young men were stunned when they heard the words, they could hardly believe what they heard, their faces were shocked.

"Look at you two, you seem to have never seen the world!" The middle-aged man took a sip of tea, full of complacency, with a bit of contempt in his eyes.

"It's true that we have never seen the world. Recently, the capital is full of these remarks. They all say that King Jing is arbitrarily powerful and dictatorial. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty dare not speak out. The subjects have long been disappointed." The scholar sighed and saw several people coming in at the door. The well-dressed person hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, stop talking, let's drink tea!"

The other two nodded, took tea and drank each, listening to the ditty in front of them, and stopped talking.

The door of the private room on the second floor of the tea house was not closed, because both of them were martial arts practitioners, and their ears were more sensitive than others, so they listened carefully to what the three people below said.

The man was dressed in a black robe with a light expression on his face. He put down his half-drinked tea and said slowly, "How do you feel after listening to it?"

"I don't feel anything." Su Yu's movement of drinking tea remained unchanged, his eyes were downcast, and his voice was indifferent, "Everything that King Jing has today is the result of his own directing and acting. He is not in a hurry. You say I can How do you feel?"

Yun Xiao stared blankly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes for a moment, and said: "It's really surprising that you know him well."

Su Yan hooked his lips lightly, noncommittal: "You brought me here just to listen to some gossip?"

"You haven't gone out for a long time, and I'm afraid you'll be bored, so I want to take you to the capital for a stroll." Yunxiao's voice became gentle, and he filled her teacup with water, "The Liyuan in the west of the city recently opened a new play, Let's go take a look later."

"Whatever." Su Yan didn't say anything, and had no objection to Yunxiao's arrangement.

Originally, she stayed in Yunlou, although she knew a little about the outside affairs, she was not very clear about the situation.After going out with Yunxiao today, she realized that the situation in the capital had reached such an incompatible point.

Ye Jing's actions also surprised her.Showing his sharpness like this and offending all the ministers, who is he paving the way for?
"For the wedding next month, I plan to invite a troupe as well. The Yunlou is always cold and cold, so I think it will be more lively this time." Yun Xiao said suddenly, with a hint of forbearance in his calm voice.

Su Yan's heart was pricked by his words and tone, he lowered his eyes and remained silent.

The two sat in the tea house for a while before Yun Xiao took her away, and the two went to Yunyifang to buy some good clothes.

Su Yan thought for a while, she shouldn't have that attitude towards Yun Xiao.Anyway, she agreed to it herself, and put on a forced look, as for?
"Choose whatever you like, it's also the first time I've brought you out shopping." Yun Xiao smiled slightly and said softly.

Su Yan nodded and wanted to smile at him, but when he raised his head, he could only make an unnatural arc: "Okay."

However, because of her nod, Yun Xiao showed a sunny and gentle smile on his perennially indifferent face, which made people feel unreal in a trance.

Su Yan avoided his gaze and walked directly into Yunyifang.Yun Xiao's heart was soft, and he also walked in.

Yunyifang is the best clothing store and silk shop in the capital, and some rich ladies love the things here.

Stepping into the door, I saw several luxuriously dressed women standing together in groups of three or four, talking from time to time, smiling lightly and dignifiedly.

"This young master seems to be coming to my Yunyifang for the first time, please come in quickly!" The shopkeeper happened to see Yunxiao, seeing his extraordinary clothes, he hurried over to say hello, but he didn't see Su Yan who went in first.

Yun Xiao nodded, looked at Su Yan who was picking, and said with a smile: "I will accompany my fiancee to choose some materials, and you will bring out the best things."

Shopkeeper Luo grinned, nodded repeatedly, and hurriedly greeted him: "Yes, I don't know which nobleman the young master is from? The young one will have the fabric delivered directly to the residence."

"What's the matter? Shopkeeper Luo opened the door to do business, so he insisted on asking people's names? Or is he only doing business for officials and nobles?" Yun Xiao spoke sharply, with a hint of coldness in his smile.

"Don't dare, I'm just talking too much." Shopkeeper Luo trembled in his heart, and hurriedly apologized, walked in front of Su Yu, and was about to say a few compliments, but because he saw her appearance clearly, he was stunned. up.

Su Yan was very clear about what he was surprised about, and smiled lightly: "Shopkeeper Luo, you have seen a ghost, as for this appearance?" When Ye Jing took her to visit the capital, Yunyifang had visited many times.

"Princess Jing..."

"She's not some kind of Princess Jing, so shopkeeper Luo please speak carefully!" Yun Xiao suddenly interrupted shopkeeper Luo, and stepped forward to hold Su Yan's hand, as if declaring his sovereignty, "She is my fiancée."

Shopkeeper Luo froze for a moment, stared at Yunxiao for a while, and then asked in doubt: "Are you Xiaoyaohou?"

"Exactly." Yun Xiao said.

Shopkeeper Luo's expression changed from shock to suddenly stunned at this moment, and he looked at Su Yan again. After a moment of hesitation, he changed his flattering expression and said: "Since it is Lord Yun, please go back, the shop will not be yours." business."

Yun Xiao's eyes were cold, and he asked slowly: "What did you say?"

Shopkeeper Luo also seemed to have a strong body, ignored Yun Xiao's threat, walked behind the counter, looked down at the account book: "The small shop does not do business in Yuling Country, please move Lord Yun!"

Su Yan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that because of Yunlou's insertion into Yutian's secret work, it aroused public outrage.For a period of time, the common people were very jealous of the people of Yuling Kingdom, and almost condemned them.

Su Yan frowned, looked up at Yun Xiao, and sure enough, he saw that his face was covered with clouds, and it was about to rainstorm.

"Okay, let's go to another house." Su Yan hurriedly grabbed Yun Xiao's arm, and persuaded him before he got angry, "There are many silk and satin shops in the capital, and other houses are also very good."

Yun Xiao said: "If even Yunyifang doesn't dare to accept our business, how can others dare to accept it?"

Su Yan rolled his eyes, and really wanted to tell him that if he didn't give his own name, how could people know their identities?
Yun Xiao seemed to see her thoughts, lowered his head and said softly: "I don't want to wrong you."

Su Yan's heart softened uncontrollably, he loosened his hands slightly, and stopped talking.Such an unruly person like Yun Xiao was treated like this here, if it was Yu Ling, how could he be ridiculed?
"Treasurer Luo." A beautiful and gentle voice came from the inner room, and then a woman with a slim figure and exquisite dress came out.

The woman's appearance is alluring, her complexion is like snow, her eyebrows are black and her eyes are almond-shaped, her lips are plump and her nose is beautiful, her smile is full of extravagance, she seems to be so perfect from birth, her every move is charming and natural, but there is a gentle beauty like water.

Su Yan recognized her at a glance, she had seen her last time at Empress Shen's birthday banquet.

This woman is Chu Qingzhou's younger sister, Chu Qinghan.
