Prince, kneel down quickly, the lady can't run away
Chapter 48 Do I have to die?
The old general couldn't help feeling a little sad, as neither of his two children was living a happy life.
The shouting stopped, Wen Jiu hurried over to take a look, and saw that the four people were covered in wounds, but Wen Xi had a bruised face and nose. "You are picking on the weak ones!"
"He is my brother, so he must have received more punishment than them."
"Did you hear everything?"
"Why do you still want to explain?" She wanted to see how she would argue.
"No, these are all facts, you can think whatever you want."
Xiao Jue wanted to stuff this woman's mouth with socks. Humph, there is a long way to go. Is that Biluo Villa? Humph, tell Qingfeng to investigate it strictly. Qingfeng was shocked.
Wen Xi held a grudge against Biluo Villa today, and so did the other three. Xuan Ying suddenly felt a chill on his back and shuddered, "Did the owner of the villa put too much ice?"
"No." He was thinking about his master, wondering if she no longer trusted him. He had to take the tasks given by his master very seriously and do them all by himself to show his loyalty.
"How is it? I'll ask Bai Zhi to apply a plaster on you, and I won't let you come today."
"It was me who wanted to follow you, why are you blaming yourself?"
"How did I blame myself? I just saw you go back like this and make me kneel in the ancestral hall again."
"Is your leg okay?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, but there are bruises. Don't tell grandma or the others about it."
"understood"
"Young Master, please bear with it." Bai Zhi applied some medicine to him, and the noise was so loud that Wen Jiu ran out.
"Changqing, boil two more eggs for your young master, peel them and rub them gently on the swollen area."
"Yes, Miss"
"Miss Wen, is there any armor business that could help me?"
"How did you find the gold mine?"
"I don't have a gold mine, I just have some spare money."
"What a big tone! I don't know how Prince Xiao makes a living by doing business. He asked you to give so much betrothal gifts and still have so much spare money. It's really infuriating to compare yourself with others."
"Don't give me that. Are you still short of money? The money you got last time is enough for ordinary people to live on for three generations."
"What can I do? I'm not an ordinary citizen."
“Can you do it?”
"What kind of mines do you have?"
"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Jue's eyes turned dangerous.
"You don't have any ore, and you want me to make armor for you, are you crazy?"
"What kind of mine do you need?"
"What mines do you have to tell me first?"
"Can you smelt?"
I smiled and said nothing, as if I was saying, "What can stump me?"
Xiao Jue looked at her for a long time before speaking, "Would you like to go out of the capital for a few days? You don't have anything else to do in the capital, do you?"
"Who said there's nothing to do? I'm coming over to accompany my grandmother in two days. They'll miss me if I leave."
“It’s not in vain, there is a generous salary”
"Didn't you say I have enough money to spend?"
"As long as you help me check it and smelt it, you can name the price."
Wenjiu's eyes lit up, then disappeared in an instant. She couldn't leave. She came back to solve these problems. People from Prince Xiao's Mansion were involved. Who knew if he had done any harm to the old man.
Xiao Jue saw the light in her eyes dim again, puzzled.
"I can't go. I need to find out something first."
"I'll help you"
"No, I'll check it myself"
"When?"
"uncertain"
"I don't have time to wait for you to check slowly."
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Fu Yichen went to Xiaoxiang to help me with things. He wrote to me saying that there are signs of invasion by the southern barbarians."
"What did you say? Fu Yichen is your man?"
"Yes." Xiao Jue looked at her and wondered if her reaction was too big. Was she surprised that he was his? Or what?
"So even if I didn't save him last time at Wenchang Marquis' Mansion, you would have saved him, right?" Wen Jiu looked at the man in front of him coldly, as if he was a clown when he saved people and gave him money eagerly.
"You misunderstood. I really don't know why he appeared there," Xiao Jue said truthfully.
"Then you should accept the money I gave you."
"I can't refuse if you're eager to give me money."
Bastard, okay, very good. If Fu Yichen is his man, then whose man is the one who found the clues pointing to Prince Xiao's Mansion?
"Do you have a younger brother?"
"You and I are about to get married, don't you know my family yet?"
"No" It's not like she really plans to spend the rest of her life with him, so why should she go through all that effort?
"Yes, there is one, born to the prince's concubine. He ran away on the night I came back. I guess it would be difficult for him to come back if I didn't leave."
"He's afraid of you?"
"Whoever knows him, run away when he sees me,"
Wen Jiu thought that this man might not be abusive to others. Otherwise, how could a young man born in Beijing, rich and powerful, run away and not dare to go home when the man came back?
"Okay, I'll let you go. What excuse do you have to go out? I can go out with any excuse." Wen Jiu also knew that he was specially transferred back by the emperor this time, so how could he be let go easily?
"Don't worry, someone has reported to the court today that the Southern Barbarians are attempting to invade the border."
"Are you so sure that the Emperor will send you back?"
"Just wait! Maybe I'll let you go with me when the time comes."
Wen Jiu looked at him with a confident look and proud eyes. Could it be that he came here today to take advantage of his grandfather? "You want to take advantage of my grandfather?"
Xiao Jue was surprised at her intelligence and said with a smile, "It cannot be said to be used, but the war may break out at any time, and then it is inevitable that some people will be displaced. I believe the old general does not want to see it. You have never seen the cruelty of the battlefield..."
"I reiterate, I don't care what your plans are. You'd better not involve the General's Mansion and clear this place for me." She has certainly seen the cruelty of the battlefield, and even more cruel things. Wars in the era of hot weapons can destroy the earth. Biological weapons alone can cause disasters to entire countries and even neighboring countries. Bombs dropped from high altitudes can turn a city into ruins. For ordinary people, these are invisible fears.
Thinking of this, Wen Jiu became sad. Those people were really afraid until they died...
"I told you last time, since the marriage was arranged, we have been tied to the same rope. It is impossible for you to get rid of it completely, unless you cancel the arranged marriage, but this is obviously impossible."
"Yes, I thought too simply, but I absolutely will not allow you to bring them down? You can sacrifice when necessary, but there is no need to get married." There are many reasons why Wen Jiu can't integrate into this era. She can't change the fact that women have to get married and have children before they reach adulthood, nor can she change the abolition of modern marriage. In her eyes, this is a kind of deformity and pathology, but for their dynasty, this is a relative relationship and is allowed. She is helpless and sad. Yes, what can she change? Nothing can be changed.
"Does it mean I have to die?" Xiao Jue looked at her.
"What do you think?" The familiar smile appeared again. Xiao Jue thought, forget it. He has never won in a verbal battle. Why should he care so much?
