The most powerful minister in the world

At night, spring thunder shook, the bright moon was obscured by dark clouds, and drizzle scattered in the many bluestone alleys.

Inside the room, Lian'er's slender hands were making tea smoothly on the tea table. Feng Zhuoyi looked at his unclasped chainmail and rubbed his shoulders tiredly.

Look at Gu Chengxiao sitting on the Taishi chair with his hands in his sleeves, looking at Lian'er's extraordinary tea art.

Behind him, two twelve-year-old sword boys in blue clasped their swords with both hands, their hands slightly lowered and breathless.

Jingxi looked at the two sword boys carefully. If one could say that the sword boys in the Southern Xinjiang Martial Palace were considered to be top-notch geniuses in the world.

The two sword boys in front of them were as angry as a pool of stagnant water. They were unpredictable, but they could not be underestimated at all.

Jingxi secretly lamented that the Gu family's background was unfathomable.

"Ahem, let me tell you, your family is from Jiangnan after all. The hospitality is a little too aggressive. My ancestral chainmail was beaten off by the doorman."

Gu Chengxiao's eyes moved slightly, and he bowed to Feng Zhuoyi and said: "Brother Feng, please suffer, but my father has said it first, you are not a guest, and your chainmail is not a family heirloom."

"you......."

Seeing Gu Chengxiao's harmless appearance, Feng Zhuoyi weakly lowered his raised finger, and said to Jingxi with an innocent face: "Second Young Master, from now on I won't do this job even if you kill me."

Laner covered her mouth and snickered, then stood up and walked to the two sword boys with a tea tray and smiled.

"Little brother, drink tea~"

The sword boy on the right had moved slightly. The sword boy on the left coughed slightly when he saw this, and the sword boy on the right remained motionless.

"Sister Lian'er, we don't drink."

"Huh? You know me?"

Facing Lian'er's question, the two sword boys stopped answering. Gu Chengxiao said, "Miss Lian'er, people in our family don't drink water from outside."

Lan'er sat back and raised her eyebrows and asked, "But since I met Mr. Gu, I haven't seen you drinking other people's water."

Gu Chengxiao said calmly: "Strictly speaking, I will be kicked out of the house before the next month."

"What??!!!" Everyone exclaimed.

Jingxi pinched his brows and said, "If what you said is true, then why did someone from the Gu family come to pick you up at Miaonv Pavilion yesterday, and why are there two sword boys following you today?"

"My father said that even if you are kicked out of the house, you can't do anything eccentric, so you need someone to supervise you."

Hearing this, Jingxi slapped his forehead and was speechless.

It wasn't until Lan'er pushed him gently that he slapped his face and asked, "Is the Qiao family still a member of your family now?"

Gu Chengxiao took a sip of tea and stared at the drizzle passing by the stone lantern outside the window and said calmly: "No more."

"Start your own business?"

Gu Chengxiao shook his head again.

Jingxi couldn't help but wonder, rubbed his fingers and said, "Tell me what's going on."

The tea tip of Dahongpao slowly bloomed in the cup, and the water vapor floated upwards. Gu Chengxiao, who was dressed in plain clothes, smiled and said: "A good bird chooses a tree to live in. For the past twenty years, our family has not cared about worldly affairs and has lived in hiding. In the middle of the market, the Qiao family naturally does not want to leave all the things in the world together."

"Oh?" Jingxi narrowed his eyes and looked at him without saying a word.

After a cup of tea, Gu Chengxiao looked at him and smiled and said, "I love the mortal world, and I am even more attached to the human world among women."

Hearing this, everyone laughed, but his expression was calm and did not change at all.

Lian'er laughed for a while, peeled a green apple with a knife in his hand and said softly: "It's clear then. Since the Qiao family has separated from the Gu family, looking at the entire Jiangnan, there is only one family that can satisfy the Qiao family's ambitions."

The peel slipped continuously from the blade into the fruit plate. Jingxi raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Which one?"

Lan'er looked at her young master's provocative eyes and snorted: "Young Master has already thought of it, why do you still ask Lan'er?"

Jingxi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't I want you to show off?"

Lian'er gritted her white teeth and fiercely took a bite of the apple originally peeled for Jing Xi.

Seeing this, Jingxi coughed twice and said, "So it seems that the prince is going to have sex with me? The key is that I didn't provoke him."

Feng Zhuoyi licked his lips and said, "I guess people have long regarded this rich place in the world as their own meal. Now that the second young master is here, it is the right thing to protect the food."

Jingxi sneered and said with a smile: "They say that this prince was only one step away from sitting on the throne, and he kept blowing the wind. I don't believe this evil."

"In terms of scheming and scheming, who can compare to the one who has already sat on the throne in the capital?"

Hearing this, Feng Zhuoyi stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Second Young Master, be careful what you say, be careful what you say."

"Tsk," Jingxi squatted on the chair and raised his hands, "Don't worry, there are only a few of us in the room, who knows who I'm talking about?"

The rain gradually became heavier, and the sound of tapping on the green tiles became more and more clear. Gu Chengxiao grabbed the green apple, waved his hand to refuse the fruit knife handed over by Lian'er, and ate it with the skin on.

"Second Young Master, do you have any plans for these days?"

Jingxi glanced at the two sword boys behind him and said, "If you have any plans, I'll use them as soon as I see them."

Gu Chengxiao and Jing Xi winked and said, "I trust you, Second Young Master. I wonder if I can stay here for one night?"

Feng Zhuoyi said in surprise: "This is not something that can come out of your mouth."

Gu Chengxiao wondered: "Didn't Miss Lian'er sleep in the same room as the second young master? I took a look at this courtyard. It's much wider than this huge mansion. There are four big rooms in the front yard alone."

Feng Zhuoyi smiled evilly and said, "There is another person in the front yard."

"Oh? That's too rude."

Jingxi knocked on the table and said, "There are two more rooms in the backyard. You can stay here." As he said that, he glared at Feng Zhuoyi again.

The latter pouted and took a sip of tea without any interest and said nothing.

Jingxi stood up, touched his thumb and shouted out of thin air: "Taoyao, Taozi."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was only the sound of rubble colliding, and two breaths later, the two sisters Taoyao and Taozi flew in from the window.

After taking off their raincoats, the two of them bowed to the Jing Family Army and said, "Second Young Master, what are your orders?"

Jingxi touched Lan'er's head and said with a smile: "These days, you two can just make a bunk in Nizi's house and watch over her, okay?"

Lan'er shook her head and scolded: "What are you doing? Lan'er doesn't want it."

Tao Yao said: "There is no need to spread the floor. My sister and I can just stand at the door of the house. It will not disturb Miss Liang'er's rest."

Lan'er stood up and stamped her feet: "The key is not here, Lan'er can take care of herself!"

Jingxi touched his chin and licked his lips and smiled: "Then since you don't want them in your room, you will sleep with the young master in the next few days."

Lan'er blushed and sat down, no longer talking.

At this time, Gu Chengxiao asked out of nowhere, "Huh? Didn't Miss Lian'er always sleep in the same room as the second young master?"

Lian'er almost buried her face in her clothes when she heard this. Jingxi touched her head and said with a smile: "Okay, let's see how you are usually indifferent and reserved. Why do you still say such things as tigers and wolves? His face does not change."

Feng Zhuoyi laughed and said, "He often talks without surprising. Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Have you heard that Mr. Liu wants to buy the Miaonv Pavilion?"

Jingxi held the teacup and said, "Hey, you are rich and powerful. Why does everyone want to go against me? If he is so stubborn, won't all my momentum be taken away by him?"

Gu Chengxiao took over the conversation and said: "That's not all, I was... During the days when I was in the building, I heard people say that not only did he want to buy the Miaonv Pavilion, but he also wanted to buy the entire Jiangnan Fenghua Palace. .”

"This..." Jing Xi's mouth twitched, "Isn't this a bit exaggerated? Who in the world can be so rich?"

Lan'er raised her head, rubbed the hem of her skirt thoughtfully, then looked at the young master's flawless side face and blinked, as if about to speak, then shook her head, as if denying herself.
