Wang Qi was startled by this sudden situation and was standing aside blankly. When he saw Chu Ziyuan looking towards him, his heart tightened.

"What you want to do is none of my business!"

Chu Ziyuan chuckled, "My prince is here today just to let you see clearly that he has nothing to do with our Marquis Mansion, so don't be deceived by him."

Wang Qi frowned, "I know, don't involve me in your affairs, I'll leave now!"

This damn Lin Zeyuan made his trip in vain.

"Wang Da..." Lin Zeyuan still wanted to call for help, but Chu Ziyuan punched his back molar, and he instantly spit out a mouthful of blood.

Wang Qi was so frightened that his heart trembled and he quickly walked towards the door of the private room.

But just as he passed by Chu Ziyuan, he suddenly felt a pain in his leg, his body became unstable, and he suddenly smashed towards Chu Ziyuan.

The incident happened suddenly. Chu Ziyuan was completely unprepared and fell to the side. Lin Zeyuan finally had a moment to breathe.

"Okay, how dare you sneak up on me!" Chu Ziyuan gritted his teeth and cursed. Without waiting for Wang Qi's explanation, he raised his fist and hit Wang Qi, who also fell to the ground.

Before Wang Qi could recover, he was punched hard and then kicked several times by Chu Ziyuan.

It wasn't until the guys downstairs heard the noise and ran up that they pulled him away.

In the elegant room opposite.

Chu Huanyan looked at this scene through the crack of the door that was not closed tightly, her eyes full of interest.

It seemed that the martial arts master I had spent all these years hiring for Chu Ziyuan was of some use. At least the few blows he had just made could be regarded as seriously injuring the imperial official.

"Let's go." Chu Huanyan put down her wine glass, took Yun Chen and Xian Yue with her, and quietly left the restaurant while taking advantage of the chaos in the elegant room opposite.

Now all I have to do is go home and wait for the news to come out.

They arrived earlier than Chu Ziyuan. In order to prevent Chu Ziyuan from noticing, they deliberately ordered the carriage to stop farther away.

As he walked over, Xian Yue asked curiously.

"Miss, how are you sure that Mr. Wang will definitely agree to Lin Zeyuan's invitation?"

Yesterday, the young lady asked herself to find someone to come forward, and spent money to bribe the cleaning boy of the Hanlin Academy, and asked him to deliberately pretend to casually mention in front of Mr. Wang that there were officials waiting at the door, hoping to get a flattering meeting. Opportunity.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Wang actually accepted Lin Zeyuan's invitation.

"Wang Qi relied on the influence of his ancestors to get into the sixth rank of compilation. He is always involved in wine, sex and wealth. He is really the easiest person to bribe in the Imperial Academy."

And I heard that Wang Qi also kept more than a dozen concubines in his family. It must be a lot of money to spend on weekdays. When he meets someone who is willing to curry favor, he will naturally join in the money.

"So that's it." Xianyue understood.

When they reached the carriage stop, Chu Huanyan was about to get on the carriage when Yun Chen suddenly called out.

"Miss."

"What's wrong?" Chu Huanyan asked.

"Look who that is."

Chu Huanyan followed Yun Chen's gaze and couldn't help but feel happy.

The shadowy figure wearing a curtain hat and carrying a vegetable basket, who could it be if it wasn't Chu Wanyan.

Seeing the wind blowing open her curtain hat, Chu Wanyan quickly stretched out her hand and pulled it open. She looked around nervously, as if she was afraid of being bumped into.

Xianyue also found it funny, "Miss, it seems that Zhu'er has completely quit her job, and the third lady actually wants to go out to buy groceries by herself."

Chu Huanyan looked at that figure with interest, "Yunchen, you go back home first, I'll go to Zhou's house to have a look."

"Miss, I will accompany you there." Yun Chen's eyes stayed on Chu Huanyan's face.

"No need, you go back home and pay attention to the next news, and Xian Yue can accompany me there."

Yun Chen glanced at Xian Yue, a flash of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and lowered his eyes and said, "Miss, why can't Xian Yue go back and wait for news."

Xianyue was stunned for a moment, what do you mean?

Is Yunchen trying to compete with himself for favor in front of the young lady?

"Of course I went with the lady, I am the lady's personal maid!"

Saying that, Xian Yue looked at Chu Huanyan again.

"Miss, if you don't want to go home and wait for news, I will accompany you there!"

"Okay." Chu Huanyan signaled to Xian Yue that there was no need to say more, and then said to Yun Chen, "You are good at kung fu and fast at light kung fu. If you have any news, you can notify me in time."

Yun Chen raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Huanyan. Seeing that she had already decided, he didn't say anything more.

"I obey my orders."

……

Zhou family.

When Chu Wanyan went in with the basket, Chu Huanyan and Xian Yue also happened to arrive outside the courtyard wall.

Mother Zhou's sharp voice came out clearly.

"I asked you to buy some groceries, why are you so slow? Are you deliberately trying to starve me to death?"

Chu Wanyan tightened her grip on the vegetable basket in her hand, "There is no carriage, so I can only walk there, which will naturally be slower!"

"Returning the carriage? You don't even look at how much money you have left. Today's grocery shopping money was all given to you by my mother."

"That's not because you stole all my jewelry. If you give it back to me, I can of course pawn it for money!"

"Bah, you have already married into the Zhou family. Even you belong to the Zhou family, let alone some jewelry. Why don't you go and cook!"

"Don't go too far. I am also a young lady from the Hou Mansion. It's already embarrassing for you to ask me to go out to buy groceries these past two days. Now you actually want me to..."

"Late smoke."

Before Chu Wanyan could finish her words, she heard a call from behind and turned to look.

When he saw Chu Huanyan, he swallowed the next word "cooking".

When he saw the other person's eyes falling on the vegetable basket he was carrying, he immediately threw the basket down like an electric shock.

"Sister, why are you here!"

"Wanyan, what's wrong with you? We haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so embarrassed?" Chu Huanyan frowned and spoke with concern, and deliberately emphasized the word "embarrassed".

Chu Wanyan wanted to save face, even if it was in front of her family, she wanted to be proud of it.

So at this moment, Chu Huanyan's caring words were like a slap in the face to Chu Wanyan.

"I, I, eldest sister, why did you come over suddenly without saying a word?"

"When I went out yesterday, I overheard some female family members talking about seeing someone who looked very much like you shopping for groceries on the street. I didn't believe it at the time. I thought about coming to see you today, but I didn't expect..." Chu Huanyan He looked at the vegetable basket on the ground.

"What!" Chu Wanyan was immediately anxious, "Someone saw me going to buy groceries on the street? How could it be possible? I've obviously already worn it..."

Before she finished speaking, Chu Wanyan suddenly paused again, her face turning green and red.

If someone accidentally sees him, what will happen to his face?

Those official ladies who were ridiculed by her in the past may be gathering together to laugh at her now!

Chu Wanyan instantly looked at Zhou's mother complainingly.

Mother Zhou was originally arrogant, but she calmed down a little when she saw Chu Huanyan coming in. Now when she saw Chu Wanyan's eyes, her anger suddenly rose again!
