The Male Wife

On the second day, when Pei Cheng was still worrying about how to face Jiang Linzhi, Jiang Linzhi seemed to have completely forgotten what happened last night.

After sending Jiang Yanzhi to the school, Pei Cheng originally wanted to take advantage of Jiang Linzhi to go out, and secretly went to the shop by himself. He didn't have much time to visit his small shop since the shop opened, so he felt itchy. no.

But when Jiang Linzhi was about to leave, he suddenly said to Pei Cheng: "You will go out with me later."

Pei Cheng frowned, a little angry, he thought Jiang Linzhi deliberately refused to let him go to the shop.

Jiang Linzhi looked at Pei Cheng's expression and suddenly smiled, "Let's go."

Pei Cheng had no choice but to follow the man's footsteps and leave. The two sat in the carriage, and Jiang Linzhi explained: "The matter of Chunwanglou is almost settled. After I finish this busy period, I will accompany you out for a walk." change."

Pei Cheng didn't answer, not because he was still angry, but because he suddenly remembered that the man seemed to have said the same thing to him when he first came to the imperial capital...

The two left in silence all the way. Although the atmosphere was weird, it didn't look awkward.

Jiang Linzhi took Pei Cheng to a courtyard near the suburbs, with a quiet environment and exquisite scenery. Pei Cheng was a little curious, but he didn't look around. He walked side by side with Jiang Linzhi for a while. He stopped in front of a door and knocked lightly.

There was a voice of "come in" from inside the room. It was a man's voice, thick and magnetic.

Jiang Linzhi suddenly reached out and took Pei Cheng's hand, ignoring the young man's struggle, and pulled him in on his own.

After Pei Cheng went in, he realized that there was no one in the house.

Chu Xun, Lord Jingjing, and a young man in casual clothes but tall and straight, with an upright face.

When Chu Xun saw Pei Cheng, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he was not surprised. He probably guessed that Jiang Linzhi would probably bring Pei Cheng over.

Lord Jing Jing sneered, "Everyone is here to discuss business matters, if you are not in the mood to discuss business matters, you should leave early, so as not to delay yourself or others."

Chu Xun said softly: "Since everyone is here, let's sit down first and talk slowly later. Besides, Cheng Pei is not an outsider."

Lord Jingjing looked at Chu Xun suspiciously, "Baihou, you seem to know them very well? Even Pei Cheng knows. Forget it, for Baihou's sake, sit down quickly."

Jiang Linzhi had no intention of accommodating Lord Jingjing. He dared to bring Pei Cheng to appear here today. One was to let Lord Jingjing see clearly that he would never agree to his previous proposal, but to Declaring sovereignty in front of Chu Xun, three... is to allow Cheng Pei to stay by his side more openly.

Pei Cheng sat down without changing his face, pretending that no one saw the expression of Lord Jing Jing, the old man probably still hated himself for raped his son-in-law, so he didn't think the old man would give him a good look .After sitting down, Pei Cheng turned his gaze to Chu Xun.

He already knew Chu Xun's identity from Jiang Linzhi's mouth, but when Pei Cheng just looked at Chu Xun, the other party didn't intend to confess to him, nor did he panic. Take this matter to heart.

Chu Xun was kind to him, not himself, so the other party had no reason to confess everything to him. What's more, Pei Cheng didn't think he valued Chu Xun's confession to him. Thinking of this, Pei Cheng was helpless He smiled and didn't take this matter to heart again.

He has been secretly observing Pei Cheng and Chu Xun turned his eyes back, and his eyes met Jiang Linzhi's in mid-air. The two men with different thoughts looked at each other. The two seemed to have made an agreement, pretending to do nothing. As if nothing happened, he calmly retracted his gaze.

Lord Jingjing and the strange man sitting next to him didn't see this scene. The strange man was pulled to be a witness. He probably knew a little about what happened between Lord Jingjing's mansion and Chunwanglou, but he didn't expect it to happen. It's going to be such a mess.

The strange man raised the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, and covered up the deep thinking in his eyes. He had never thought about it before, and he really thought that the mansion of Lord Jingjing would marry the owner of Wuwu Pavilion, but he didn't expect it But it has become the current situation.

It was unexpected.

"...Since we have decided to put the matter on the table and talk about it, then let me start it first." Chu Xun held the wine glass in his hand, but didn't drink it. He just cared about it. There is a mistake, but if the matter has reached this level, if it is not resolved in private, it will become more and more rigid, and no one will have good fruit in the end."

"But now everyone wants to shake hands and make peace, so I will witness this matter with my own eyes, Mr. Jing Jing and the master of the Wuji Pavilion will still pass this matter on from now on. Let's make trouble again." After finishing speaking, Chu Xun's tone paused, looked at Jiang Linzhi and Lord Jingjing with a half-smile, and continued: "This is the imperial capital, and some things are too ugly. Master Wei looks unhappy, and no one will please him at that time, so this matter... have the two of you really decided?"

Lord Jingjing is getting old, and still relying on the juniors to be witnesses, in order to shake hands with the junior Jiang Linzhi, it's too embarrassing to say it.But Lord Jing Jing is very smart, and he is also very sensible, knowing that if the current situation continues to turmoil, he will definitely not be able to please him.

Especially now that the master above seems to have heard some rumors, and has been secretly sending people to inquire about something in his mansion these two days, so Lord Jing Jing is also very interested, knowing that this matter cannot continue, You have to stop early.

However, this matter was not something he could stop if he said it alone, so in desperation, Lord Jingjing could only send someone to convey his meaning to Jiang Linzhi. He was worried that Jiang Linzhi would not agree, so By the way, he also passed on the news that the master above seemed to be about to get angry.

Jiang Linzhi agreed, but brought Pei Cheng over during the negotiation.

Lord Jingjing's anger is not going well.It's not that he didn't care about Pei Cheng, he just felt that Jiang Linzhi had been lying to his stupid son's feelings for all these years, delaying his stupid son for nothing, that's why Lord Jingjing had an almost accident in Chunwanglou a few days ago irreparable fire.

However, under his calmness, Lord Jing Jing felt that he was too reckless.

His position in the imperial court was already very delicate, and now he was impeached by civil officials because he set fire in private and almost accidentally injured the common people.Of course, the man above didn't say anything when he learned about this incident, and he was still protecting the face of Lord Jingjing's mansion, but these days he refused to pretend to see Lord Jingjing in private, probably because he was really angry up.

Jiang Linzhi said lightly: "I agree to shake hands and make peace. But before shaking hands and making peace, the old Hou Ye probably wants to apologize to my wife."

Lord Jingjing was furious. Although he tried his best to control his emotions, his expression was still very angry. It could be seen that he was very angry, "Jiang Linzhi, don't go too far. What have I owed you these years, why, Now that you have the ability to confront me in Jingjinghou's mansion, but you want to be ungrateful?!

"I, Jiang, have never done anything ungrateful. If Master Hou hadn't pushed too hard at the beginning, I, Jiang, would never have done anything that would harm the interests of Lord Hou's mansion." Jiang Linzhi responded in a few words. , easily pointing the finger at Lord Hou's Mansion.

Lord Jing Jing was dumb, what Jiang Linzhi said was right, of course he couldn't say anything to refute.Today, Lord Jingjing finally realized that he seemed to have fallen into someone's trap—from beginning to end, he did too many outrageous things and was too conspicuous.However, Jiang Linzhi's Wuji Pavilion and Chunwanglou did nothing to make people hate.

After seeing enough of the excitement, Chu Xun said: "Since we have already planned to shake hands and make peace, it is better to let this matter turn over early. Don't let outsiders watch the excitement, right?"

Lord Jing Jing nodded coldly, "Let's solve it soon."

"Jiang is a junior. In the final analysis, this matter is not all caused by Lord Hou alone. In addition, there are indeed enough disturbances these days." Jiang Linzhi didn't finish speaking, but everyone present understood What does this mean.

Pei Cheng sat on the side and didn't speak. Although he didn't understand what was hidden in the words of these people, he was not stupid. He understood that Jiang Linzhi was now solving the conflict with Lord Hou's mansion, and he was also indirectly talking to Jing Jing Hou Ye expressed his attitude.

Even Pei Cheng can understand things, but how could these smart people here not understand?But everyone is just pretending to be fools.Lord Jing Jing lost his temper in a pretentious manner, then he died down and stopped mentioning this matter. He sat for a while and got up to leave soon.

Seeing this, the strange man sitting next to Lord Jingjing didn't stay long, and left after a while.

Chu Xun had no intention of leaving yet.

Before leaving, the strange man glanced at Chu Xun with a half-smile, and finally at Pei Cheng with a vague glance, smiled, and left without saying anything.

Chu Xun took a sip of his wine and said lightly, "I thought that the incident in Chunwanglou was such a big deal that the pavilion master would never turn this matter over easily."

Jiang Linzhi said: "Baihou and Jingjinghou are both from the Chu family. Why do I listen to Baihou's tone, but I wish I had no peace with Jingjinghou, but hope that I will continue to fight."

Both Chu Xun and Pei Cheng were startled.

Because no one thought that Jiang Linzhi would say what everyone knew, but it was still impossible to say it in public.

Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi with a complicated expression, a little worried, and didn't know what medicine the man had taken wrongly.

Chu Xun came to his senses, smiled and said nothing, and didn't make any excuses.

But where Pei Cheng couldn't see, Chu Xun and Jiang Linzhi looked at each other, their eyes were full of indifference and disgust.Smart people love dealing with smart people, but equally, calculating smart people hate dealing with calculating smart people.

Both Chu Xun and Jiang Linzhi are the latter, so they can't understand each other's existence.
