Chapter 10
A luxurious carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of Qingxiang Inn, Fang Fu jumped down first, Xiao Jin lifted his robe and put it on his hand and fell to the ground.
"Young master, go to the inn first and take a rest, the villain will come as soon as he pulls the carriage." Fang Fu bowed and said respectfully.
"That's good." Xiao Jin nodded and walked into the inn.Pull the carriage?What a poor excuse.
At noon in the scorching sun, the cicadas on the banyan tree were singing loudly.The lobby on the first floor of the inn was bustling with people, and the men chatted together in twos and threes with their shoulders crossed and their backs crossed.
Xiao Jin passed by them, and when he stepped up the stairs, he happened to hear two young men who came down from the second floor whispering.
"The trial of the pawnshop case was completed this morning. I heard that the prisoner is a boy from the Goulan Courtyard."
"I didn't expect the case that has been making a lot of noise to end like this..."
The two young men wanted to continue talking, but when they looked up and saw Xiao Jin coming up, they immediately fell silent and hurried down the stairs in a panic.
oh?The murder case has been closed, so it means that he, the scapegoat, is temporarily safe now.Xiao Jin hooked the corners of his mouth meaningfully, and the expression in his eyes became bottomless.
Xiao Jin went up to the second floor, and Xiao Er was coming out of a guest's room. He walked up and stopped the person who was about to go downstairs, seemingly unintentionally.
"Guest officer, what's the matter?" Xiaoer asked, cupping his hands.
Xiao Jin smiled and said, "Well, please bring some hot water over after half of the application time."
Xiao Er nodded in doubt, and walked down the stairs a little confused, passing Fang Fu who came up.
"My lord." Xiao Jin stood there respectfully and bent over after seeing Fang Fu.
Fang Fu glared at him, then looked around, only to let go of his concern when he saw that there was no one around.
Seeing his suddenly gloomy face, Xiao Jin shrank his neck and lowered his head.
Xiao Er, who just walked into the corner, turned around and glanced at them in a little surprise and bewilderment.How could Xiao Qier call a young servant an adult?Is there any unspoken secret in it?
Xiao Jin glanced at a piece of cloth at the corner of the stairs from the corner of his eye, and a calculation flashed in his eyes.
Xiao Jin followed Fang Fu into the room, and under Fang Fu's signal, Xiao Jin closed the door tightly.
Fang Fu sat on the stool with Erlang legs crossed, raised his hand to take the cup on the table and put it on the table fiercely, cursing with a gloomy face: "Idiot, who told you to call me my lord outside!" This Xiao Qier Is it really stupid or fake stupid?
"Master, villain...The villain didn't do it on purpose..." Xiao Jin shrank his shoulders in fear, and picked the nails of both hands.
Seeing his timid appearance, Fang Fu frowned.This Xiao Qier really can't make a big deal!It seems that I still need to tell my wife that when Xiao Qi'er and Wen Yelan got married, they would directly kill him... Thinking of this, Fang Fu's eyes flashed a ruthless look.
Xiao Jin lowered his head and rubbed his right thumb and index finger lightly.
"In the future, you'd better be smart. If you mess up the marriage contract, you'll have to weigh how long you can live." Fang Fu stood up and walked to the window with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Jin shook his body timidly, and he replied tremblingly: "My lord, don't worry, the villain will definitely not ruin your plan with the eldest lady."
Fang Fu sneered, how could a beggar ruin their plan?This Xiao Qi'er didn't measure his own identity, he really took himself seriously.
Xiao Jin raised his eyes lightly, looking at Fang Fu's back, the smile on his mouth was fleeting.
Xiao Er, who was carefully hiding outside the door, stretched out his ears, and could only vaguely hear a slight sound coming from the room.
grown ups?Mess up the engagement?Madam's plan?It seems that this Xiao Qier and his "little servant" are indeed haunted!Full of doubts, Xiao Er hurriedly left when he heard footsteps gradually approaching the room.
Fang Fu opened the door and went back to the room next to him, but did not find the fleeting figure at the stairs.
Halfway through the application time, Xiaoer followed Xiao Jin's instructions and came to the door of his room with a large bucket of hot water. When he raised his hand to knock on the door, he suddenly heard a loud shout from inside the room.
With a shiver, he carefully put down the wooden barrel and listened carefully sideways.After the shout, there was no sound in the room for a while.Thinking of the news overheard in the morning, Xiao Er's heart was pounding with nervousness.
"My lord, after I marry Wen Yelan as you and Mrs. Wen said, will you be able to give me my household registration certificate?"
"My lord... Isn't this what we agreed on before? The eldest lady promised me in prison that as long as I marry Wen Yelan, she will help me get a household registration certificate."
"..."
There was only Xiao Qi'er's voice in the room, but Xiao Er hadn't thought too much, and was still digesting the news he had just overheard in his mind.Mrs. Wen seduced or threatened Xiao Qier to marry the eldest son of the Wen family with her household registration certificate?Xiaoer turned pale with fright, and hurriedly picked up the bucket and ran downstairs.
Xiao Jin opened the door, looked down at the few drops of water on the threshold, and the corners of his mouth pulled even wider.
Not surprisingly, there will soon be public opinion in the capital that Mrs. Wen seduces and threatens Xiao Qi'er to marry Wen Yelan. There are rumors of a marriage contract ahead, I'm afraid this time it will only be strong but not weak.
Xiao Jin felt that it was really interesting to use his own way to treat his own body in order to achieve his final goal.
Xiao Jin walked back to the room, leaned back against the chair, and tapped his fingers on the table happily.
The next day.
Daqing happily walked into the Shenxiang Pavilion, and walked towards the pavilion in the center of the lotus pond.
"Master, Daqing is here." Mei Xiang, who was standing behind Wen Yelan with a round fan to fan him, bowed her head and whispered to Wen Yelan when she saw Daqing walking towards them.
First Young Master Wen, who was concentrating on the script, raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked forward with his dark eyes.
Daqing walked into the gazebo with a smile all over his face, and said impatiently, "Young master, good news!"
"Huh?" Wen Yelan looked at him expressionlessly with raised eyebrows.
Daqing smiled and said: "Young Master, it's very lively outside now." He rubbed his hands, "Right now there are rumors outside that Mrs. Wen is threatening Xiao Qi'er to marry you, Young Master, with a certificate of household registration. The matter of the marriage contract is Forged, Xiao Qier is not the young master of Erythrosis City, the young master of the Wen family was framed by others."
"Hmm..." Wen Yelan frowned slightly.
"Young master, shall we continue according to the original plan?" Daqing asked with a serious look on his face.
Wen Yelan's eyes fell on the notebook in his hand. Although his face was expressionless, there were already some ups and downs in his heart.I remember that there was no such thing as today in my previous life.Who made these rumors?Wen Ponzi?or someone else?Or is it the butterfly effect caused by his rebirth?
He turned his eyes back to Daqing, and said in a deep voice: "Stay still, and don't startle the snake before you find out who is behind this rumor."
Daqing nodded seriously.
"Daqing, continue to follow Wen Ziyao, and send another person to investigate this matter." Wen Yelan ordered.
Daqing straightened his body and replied solemnly: "Yes, Young Master."
Yuxiu Courtyard.
Wen Pangshi flicked his sleeves and swept all the things on the table to the ground, making a crackling sound.
"Trash! You useless bastards!" Wen Pangshi stared, his face was bulging with blue veins, and his cheeks and neck were frighteningly red.
Fang Liang, who was standing by the side, dared not vent his anger.
"Look at what's going on outside! You are such stupid waste!" Wen Pangshi slapped his palm on the table angrily.
Fang Liang said nervously: "Mistress, the villain has already sent someone to find out the person who spread the rumors! I'm afraid this matter needs to be discussed in the long term!"
A stern look flashed in Wen Pangshi's eyes, she must drag out the person behind the rumor.If she hadn't kept a hand, I'm afraid the original plan would be ruined.
She took a deep breath, sat down on the chair, looked at Fang Liang and said, "Go and deliver Xiao Qi'er's household registration certificate to him, and let him pretend to accidentally reveal things to outsiders."
Fang Liang understood what Wen Pangzi meant as soon as he heard it, and this was an attempt to make the rumors self-defeating.As long as Xiao Qi'er has a household registration certificate on her body, the common people will know that the rumor that "Mrs. Wen used the household registration certificate to threaten Xiao Qi'er to marry Wen Yelan" is false.
Fang Liang responded with a bow: "This subordinate will do it now!"
Wen Pangshi looked at the back of Fang Liang leaving, his face became more and more gloomy.The palm of her hand that was hanging on the table slowly clenched into a fist and slammed down on the table.
I thought Wen Yelan could get married with just a fake marriage letter, but I didn't expect such a rumor to spread today.If this rumor spreads more and more intensely, I'm afraid that her long-planned plan will be destroyed by an ant's nest!
Who is the driving force behind this rumor outside?Apart from Wen Guowen, the only people who knew her plan were Fang Liang, Fang Fu and Xiao Qier.
Is it Xiao Qier?Wen Pangshi shook his head with a sneer. Does a timid and stupid beggar still have such skills?Impossible, otherwise he wouldn't be reduced to the point of being treated as a dead ghost.So could it be the two brothers Fang Liang and Fang Fu?These two are indeed ambitious.
Thinking of this, Wen Pangshi's face became more and more gloomy.Because of this incident, Wen Pangshi silently created a gap between the two brothers, Fang Liang and Fang Fu.
It seems that she should go to meet Royal Concubine Yuan tomorrow as soon as possible.Maybe it's time to put the matter she mentioned to Concubine Yuan last time on the agenda.
Xiao Jin has been staying in the inn peacefully for the past two days. When he heard the people in the inn discussing the rumors he created behind his back, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.Tsk tsk, his previous actions seem to have had an effect.
Fang Fu quietly left the inn at Maoshi the next day, Xiao Jin guessed that he probably went to meet Fang Liang secretly.
Fang Fu came back after Chen Shi, and went directly into Xiao Jin's room as soon as he came back. Xiao Jin pretended to be trembling and stood in the corner obediently.
Fang Fu was scolded by Fang Liang, and seeing Xiao Jin's appearance, he was furious.He took out his household registration certificate and threw it into Xiao Jin's hand, saying, "I think you should know how to do it?"
Xiao Jin quickly nodded and said: "My lord, don't worry, I understand how to do it. The villain will reveal the household registration certificate to outsiders without any trace."
Fang Fu nodded sullenly, this Xiao Qier is not too stupid.But when he thought that someone had eavesdropped on his conversation with Xiao Qier, his face became even more ugly.
Xiao Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Fu's suppressed anger expression, and nodded happily with his fingers hanging on his thighs.
