Forced to die for his loyalty, he was reborn in the arms of the cold and cruel regent!
Chapter 68 Quarrel in the street
She turned to look at Li Junfeng, but found that his eyes were still on Shen Mengyao's departing back, and she couldn't help feeling jealous and uneasy.
"Brother Junfeng, let's go." She gently pulled Li Junfeng's sleeve, trying to pull him back from his thoughts.
Li Junfeng came back to his senses and looked at Meng Yuehuan deeply.
"What do you mean by heirloom? And why are you here now?"
"She was just talking nonsense, did you take it seriously?" Meng Yuehuan took his arm with a bright smile on her face.
"Then I'll go back and take a look." Li Junfeng had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Is a broken jade pendant worth so much attention?" Meng Yuehuan bit her lip.
"There's a pawn shop next to it, are you really selling it?" Li Junfeng was furious: "That's my heirloom, what are you selling?"
"It's just a broken jade pendant, worth only ten taels of silver. How can it be considered a family heirloom? You can't survive now, so how can you have a family to pass it on to?" Meng Yuehuan looked at him righteously.
Li Junfeng was shocked when he heard what Meng Yuehuan said.
Although the jade pendant was not worth much money, it was a symbol of family inheritance to him. The burden of the Li family's prosperity was on his shoulders. He had never thought that Meng Yuehuan would pawn it so rashly. Such rashness was simply unacceptable to him.
"You...how could you do this?" Li Junfeng was so angry that his voice trembled.
Seeing Li Junfeng so angry, Meng Yuehuan panicked, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "I'm doing this for our own good. You're penniless now, and we can't even afford to eat. I just want to exchange some silver for emergency use, right?"
"Emergency? Do you know what that jade pendant means to me?" Li Junfeng roared.
"Isn't it just a jade pendant? What's the big deal?" Meng Yuehuan muttered softly, and probably got angrier and angrier the more she thought about it, and said confidently: "Didn't you say you would support me? I don't even expect to have luxurious clothes and delicious food, but the season is about to change, and I don't even have a new piece of clothing."
"But you can't pawn it! Besides, aren't those clothes you brought before still wearable? My mother is sick, and I haven't even thought about pawning it!" Li Junfeng was very angry, anger burning in his chest, and his right hand was shaking slightly.
Seeing the crowd disperse, Meng Yuehuan became more confident.
"You are really good at letting your woman wear old clothes. This is your incompetence. Don't blame me. I can't return the money to you even if it's already been pawned. If you can get ten taels of silver in a month, come to the pawnshop to redeem it! If you don't have that ability, then you can only swallow it!"
"You!" Li Junfeng couldn't help it after all and slapped her hard in the face.
When the clear and pleasant sound rang out, Meng Yuehuan's face was full of disbelief. She covered her slightly swollen right cheek and looked up at him in disbelief.
"You...you hit me?"
Tears burst out instantly, her voice trembled, her face was full of hurt expression: "How dare you hit me? Why did you hit me?"
Li Junfeng was also stunned. He had never thought that he would hit Meng Yuehuan. After this slap, the anger in his heart instantly dissipated, and was replaced by deep regret and self-blame.
"I...I..." He stuttered, wanting to explain but not knowing what to say.
Seeing him like this, Meng Yuehuan felt even more wronged. She cried and pointed at Li Junfeng's nose and cursed: "I have been following you through hardships and hardships, and I have always been following you. You actually hit me for a broken jade pendant? I tell you, I will remember this slap today!"
After saying that, she turned and ran without even looking back.
Li Junfeng stood there, watching Meng Yuehuan's back as she walked away, feeling mixed emotions. He knew that he hadn't done the right thing, but he was really so angry at Meng Yuehuan that he had lost his mind.
He must think of another way out quickly!
After walking out for a long time, Cuiwei couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Princess, you were so majestic just now."
"Isn't this a good idea?" Shen Mengyao turned around and asked with a chuckle.
Cuiwei nodded heavily: "Of course, we should let those bastards know that the princess is not easy to bully, because a good temper will only make them take advantage of us. What Li Junfeng said really makes me sick."
"You are disgusting, let alone me." Shen Mengyao smiled faintly: "I am in it, it is even more disgusting."
"But...Princess, you didn't achieve the purpose of coming out today. What should you do? The eldest prince cannot cooperate." Cuiwei said worriedly.
Shen Mengyao also knew that the situation was not optimistic: "I have thought about the eldest prince's words for a long time. He may have set his sights on our Princess Mansion because he did not make any money from the previous business of dealing in medicinal materials."
Cuiwei looked worried: "Could it be that he wants to take revenge on the princess? The eldest prince is the emperor's eldest son and is quite favored. If the princess really fights with him, the queen mother may not stand on your side."
Although she was raised by the Queen Mother herself and grew up under her watch, the eldest prince and the Queen Mother are blood relatives. If things really get ugly, the Queen Mother may not completely stand on her side.
Shen Mengyao also understood this truth.
"Forget it, it's just about finding a shop. I won't go there in person. Just stay in the Princess's Mansion for the next few days to avoid being caught by the eldest prince."
It was almost dusk when the two of them returned to the Princess's Mansion in a carriage.
In the corridor, Luo Chuan grabbed the skinny Xiao Qi and said, "Don't even think about running away. Your hand is injured. It's been hot these days, and it's become festered. You need to apply medicine."
Xiao Qi was horrified: "Stop! It hurts too much!"
"Why should a man be afraid of pain?" Luo Chuan glared at him, pulled his hand over, started cleaning the abscess, and then sprinkled medicine powder on it.
In an instant, the whole yard was filled with the sound of Xiao Qi slaughtering a pig.
"It hurts, it hurts, please let me go, it hurts so much!"
Luo Chuan remained unmoved, with only coldness on his icy face. He was incredibly strong, and Xiao Qi couldn't break free from his grasp at all.
After applying the medicine, he let Xiao Qi go.
Xiao Qi jumped back a few steps, tears welling up in his eyes from the pain: "You killed someone."
"I'm saving you." Luo Chuan looked up and saw that her eyes were red. He couldn't help but laugh: "A grown man is so afraid of pain and he's crying?"
"Who says grown men can't be afraid of pain? Can't cry?" Xiao Qi blew on his wound, wanting to cry but without tears.
Shen Mengyao felt relieved to see that the two of them got along well. Xiaoqi used to be a thief, and she was afraid that he would not be used to normal life and would need someone to take care of him.
Luochuan was willing to stay and he was of the same sex as him, so he was the best choice.
She walked over quickly and cleared her throat.
