[Crossing the Book] The Villain Regent's Substitute Princess

Luo Qiuyi was a little embarrassed, afraid that Chen Chonglin would think too much, so he hurriedly said, "I'm going to the Qunfang Pavilion for a reason, not because I'm looking for a girl..." He briefly explained the blood jade incident .

"Qiu, you like that blood jade, so why bother so much? It's better not to go to that kind of place." After hearing this, Chen Chonglin expressed his thoughts, "I'll go directly to King Rui to ask for it."

"Are you the regent or the bandit leader?" Luo Qiuyi glared at Chen Chonglin, and complained, "If I didn't know, I thought you were also from Zhao Kou's cottage."

"Of course it's not a hard grab." Chen Chonglin smiled, "I will give him enough money."

"He is not short of money, and he may not be willing to sell it if you give it to him. Isn't this a forced buying and selling? This will affect your image...I have already carried out the plan to this point, You don't have to worry about it."

"Then at least, let me accompany you to Qunfang Pavilion?" After finally meeting his beloved, Chen Chonglin refused to leave.

"Up to now, it's better for us to act less together, so as not to be seen." Luo Qiuyi shook his head, rejecting Chen Chonglin's follow.

"Anyway, we are also a husband and wife. Now we get along as friends. What can others say? Tomorrow is a holiday. I have no plans. I even asked you to spend it together."

"……This……"

Luo Qiu raised a wry smile from the corner of his mouth, feeling a little helpless—when the two were together, their relationship was not in place during the holidays, or they always encountered arrangements such as court activities, and they rarely got along alone.

Now Chen Chonglin was free, but the position between the two became awkward again.

But how could Luo Qiuyi have the heart to refuse such an invitation for the sake of other people's eyes?

"Then how about this, let's go to a more private place that is not easy to be seen... How about going to the private room of Zuixiang Building for dinner?"

Zuixianglou is the most famous restaurant in the capital. Although there are many people going to eat, its private room is equivalent to a private room, which is expensive and ordinary people cannot afford it.Anyway, Chen Chonglin is so rich, let's knock him a little.

When it comes to Luo Qiuyi's hobbies, food is definitely one of the most prominent ones.Enjoying delicious food with your loved one in your spare time is really a great thing in life.

"Okay." Chen Chonglin readily agreed.

"Then let's meet at Zuixianglou at noon tomorrow. I'm leaving now."

Luo Qiuyi said, beckoned to Chen Chonglin, and walked towards Qunfang Pavilion with Zhao Kou.

When I arrived at Qunfang Pavilion, I made some inquiries and learned that the oiran was playing the piano for the guests.

Luo Qiuyi went to her empty room, and really found the blood jade under her pillow.

Holding the blood jade, Luo Qiu returned to Luo Mansion contentedly.

The next day, he didn't get up until mid-sun, but it was still a little far from the time agreed with Chen Chonglin.

So he came to hang out in the garden.

From a distance, seeing Luo Chunfu admiring the flowers in the garden, Luo Qiu couldn't help but took out the blood jade from his bosom and walked over to show it off, "Look, sister! I got something nice yesterday."

"Ah, it's blood jade!" Luo Chunfu didn't react, but Xia Huairen who was beside her exclaimed.

Luo Qiu thought to himself, Xia Huairen is also a gentle gentleman, no wonder he is interested in jade.

"Yes brother-in-law, do you think the quality of this jade is very good?" Luo Qiuyi handed the jade to Xia Huairen's hand.

Xia Huairen took the blood jade carefully and played with it, "It really is of excellent quality, without any flaws at all! This is the first time I have the opportunity to witness and touch such a top-quality jade... broken."

Luo Qiu said with a smile: "If it's broken, it's broken. In fact, I cheated this from King Rui. It didn't cost a penny."

"Oh?" At this moment, another person came over suddenly, that person was Luo Chenfeng, "Did you meet Chen Linshu?"

Luo Qiu was taken aback, surprised that Luo Chenfeng would call Chen Linshu by his first name, so it should be... "Is Second Brother familiar with King Rui?"

"Who knows him well?" Luo Chenfeng said angrily, "I don't like to associate with people who don't do their jobs properly."

Luo Qiu saw that Luo Chenfeng was holding a sword in his hand, he should be going to practice martial arts in the martial arts field, and passed the garden.He knew that Luo Chenfeng was a diligent person, which was very different from Chen Linshu's idle style.

"Ha, since the second brother doesn't like this person either, I'll just say it straight... This blood jade was originally auctioned by King Rui, but I heard that he probably spent a lot of money to please a certain beauty, and didn't He is not a real person who cherishes jade, so he cheated jade out of his hands with a little trick."

"...Isn't that good?" Luo Chenfeng frowned, "Although this person is annoying, it is his property after all. Besides, how do you know that he must be used to send vulgar fans? ? In my opinion, it’s better for you to return the blood jade to others.”

Luo Qiuyi discovered that although Luo Chenfeng had a bad voice when talking about Chen Linshu, he was speaking for him at the moment.I don't know what the relationship between the two is.

"Second brother is right, I will find a chance to return it to him." Luo Qiu thought it was hard to argue with Luo Chenfeng, so he could only nod his head in response before speaking.

"Just say what you mean. I'm just reminding you, I don't care about your business." After Luo Chenfeng finished speaking, he turned and left.

Luo Qiuyi just smiled and didn't care about it, and continued to chat with his sister and brother-in-law.

It was finally noon, and Luo Qiuyi arrived at the private room of Zuixiang Building on time.

He and Chen Chonglin staggered their actions. Although it cannot be completely guaranteed that no one will know that they are together, at least they will not be looked down upon in a private space.

Now seeing each other is like having an affair, this feeling makes Luo Qiuyi unhappy, but there is nothing he can do about it.

"Qiu Yi, are you here?" Chen Chonglin was already sitting next to a large table of dishes, smiling softly, "These are your favorite foods. Just serve them, eat them while they are hot."

"Okay." Luo Qiuyi also smiled, picked up the chopsticks after taking a seat, and began to enjoy the food.

The two talked and laughed while eating and drinking, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and cheerful.

After drinking and eating, Chen Chonglin still refused to let Luo Qiu go, "It's hard to see each other now, let's talk more. By the way, did you get the blood jade yesterday?"

"With me on the horse, can you still catch it?" Luo Qiu smiled smugly, and took out the blood jade, "Look, isn't it a good baby?"

"Regent!" Chen Chonglin was about to answer when he heard a shout from outside the door, "How can you be so overbearing?!"

"Ah! It's the second brother?" Luo Qiuyi, the master who heard the voice, got up and opened the door of the private room, only to see that outside the door was Luo Chenfeng who was held by the arms on both sides by the two guards brought by Chen Chonglin. "Why are you here?"

"You ask me why I'm here?" Luo Chenfeng sneered, "I still want to ask you guys! This is the private room I booked yesterday, why do you take it by force?!"

"...?" Luo Qiuyi turned his head and looked at Chen Chonglin with a questioning look.

"It is true that he booked this private room first." Chen Chonglin said lightly, "But since you are interested, of course it is yours...Luo Chenfeng," he looked at Luo Chenfeng coldly Luo Chenfeng, "I didn't give you enough money? What are you making a fuss about here?"

"Who cares about your money!" Luo Chenfeng, who was restrained and unable to move, struggled vigorously, "You let them let me go!"

"You can let go," Chen Chonglin's eyes were threatening, "but get out of here immediately, and don't make any more noise here. Otherwise, I'll let them throw you out."

"Chong Lin, don't do this!" Luo Qiu knew that the second brother was soft rather than hard, so he hurriedly said, "Let them let go of the second brother first."

"...That's enough." Hearing what Luo Qiu said, Chen Chonglin had no choice but to signal his subordinates to let go of Luo Chenfeng.

Luo Chenfeng was not grateful for Luo Qiuyi's words of help, but instead sneered and said: "You two have already reconciled, but you still want to meet here secretly and do some tricky things, it's really indecent!"

"You man! You even opened a dyeing workshop after giving you three points of color?!" Chen Chonglin couldn't help being very annoyed when he heard this.

"Chonglin, don't worry, I'll tell him..." Luo Qiuyi said to Luo Chenfeng in a leisurely manner, "Second brother, I would like to ask you, what about me and Luo Chenfeng?" The prince just had a meal together, where did he hurt his reputation? But you, as my brother, poured dirty water on me so casually, isn't it inappropriate?"

"...Time, Luo Chenfeng was a little speechless.

"Chen Feng!" At this moment, someone rushed over in a hurry, "I heard that someone bullied you?! Who is so bold!"

It was Chen Linshu who came.

"Look for yourself." Luo Chenfeng cast a cold glance at Chen Chonglin.

"...Is it Brother Huang?" Chen Linshu originally looked aggressive and wanted to settle accounts with someone, but seeing that the person "bullying" Luo Chenfeng was actually Chen Chonglin, he didn't dare to act too rashly.

"What's the matter? Come to complain about your little beauty?" Chen Chonglin sneered and said, "It's rare for me to come to Zuixianglou for dinner today, and I didn't bother to book a private room in advance. Someday you idlers can't Do you have to compete with this king for eating?"

"..." Chen Linshu heard that Chen Chonglin was accusing himself of being too idle, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while.

He looked at Luo Qiuyi, then his eyes fell on the blood jade in his hand, and he couldn't help but let out a soft "ah".

Luo Qiuyi's heart tightened, and then he remembered that the blood jade was still in his hand.

Fortunately, Chen Linshu is a person who knows how to measure, after all, he didn't say much, but said to Luo Chenfeng: "Forget it, Chen Feng, since there is such a domineering person, why don't we eat somewhere else?"

"Who wants to eat with you." Luo Chenfeng replied coldly, then turned and left.

"Chen Feng, wait for me!" Chen Linshu hurriedly followed.

"This King Rui," Chen Chonglin frowned slightly, "I don't dare to speak like this on weekdays.

Luo Qiu guessed in his heart that Chen Linshu should be a tactful person at ordinary times, not as easy to offend people as Luo Chenfeng, but he just said the irony of "since there is such a domineering person" in front of Chen Chonglin , it can be seen...he seems to have a lot of affection for Luo Chenfeng?

"Hey, Chong Lin, let's not talk about them now, I think it's really not good for you to be so domineering..."
