Chapter 542 Jiang Yi must take the blame
Chapter 542 Jiang Yi must take the blame
It’s not that Liu Guangqiu was stupid, but that he suddenly gained so much wealth that he felt like he couldn’t keep it.
Most importantly, he didn't want to leave hidden dangers for his son in the future, and would rather let his son live a peaceful life with his meager property after returning.
To be honest, he felt sad to give away the wealth he had earned.
But his wealth really came too much and too easily. In the whole Western Xinjiang, it was second only to Prince Yi's Mansion.
What would the arrogant and brave generals of Prince Yi's Palace think? How could they not be jealous!
"Uncle Liu, my niece really doesn't want to..."
Looking at Liu Guangqiu's eager "wolf-like" eyes, Qin was about to cry.
Just as Qin was immersed in her own "misunderstanding", there was a sudden commotion outside the teahouse, and then it became unusually quiet, and the original noisy sounds disappeared.
Qin felt strange and turned to look downstairs. It would have been fine if she hadn't looked, but when she did, she shuddered in her heart.
But not far away on the street downstairs, she saw several figures walking quickly towards her, and the one who made her feel an unknown fear was the person leading them.
He should not be very old, with a fair face and no beard, and a feminine quality that is rare in men. He is particularly eye-catching in his bright red outfit.
In the entire Western Xinjiang, there is only one person dressed like this, and that is Ding Ren, the leader of the underground force "Dark Falcon" and one of the two most notorious eunuchs in Prince Yi's Palace.
As for the other eunuch, it was Lu Fan who was in charge of the Five Elements Flag.
Because of Ding Ren's appearance, the originally noisy streets suddenly became quiet, and even the children who were originally jumping around shrank into the arms of adults in fear.
Qin had been running the teahouse for some time and had heard a lot of gossip, naturally including that about this Chief Ding.
So when I saw this bright red logo, I couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Especially as the other party got closer and closer, even though I knew that his destination must be Kongtong Posthouse, the fear in my heart was still increasing uncontrollably, for I was afraid that the other party was coming for the teahouse.
Liu Guangqiu, who had been chattering away, also noticed something unusual and looked in the direction Qin was looking.
Looking at the big red figure, he was a little confused at first, then his eyes lit up, he stood up suddenly, half of his body was deep in the teahouse, and waved:
“Brother Ding!”
The sound was very loud, and the whole street was very quiet, so the three words "Brother Ding" spread to every corner of the neighborhood in an instant.
Brother Ding? Everyone who heard these three words was shocked. Who could be a brother to the notorious Ding Ren?
Everyone's first reaction was to look at Ding Ren. Sure enough, Ding Ren, who had been expressionless, suddenly changed his expression after hearing these three words. His expression became as horrible and sinister as before a rainstorm.
As for Liu Guangqiu, he felt a little regretful after calling him brother. When he saw Ding Ren's sinister expression, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself:
"It's bad, too much enthusiasm!"
After all, the relationship between the two was not good enough to be brothers, they could only be said to be acquaintances.
Just when everyone, including Liu Guangqiu, was feeling uneasy, Ding Ren, who had originally had a gloomy expression, suddenly smiled with a warm face.
He nodded at Liu Guangqiu, and after hesitating for a while, he went straight into the teahouse.
Qin's heart skipped a beat and her face turned pale. She had heard that the eunuch under Prince Yi was cruel and ruthless, and might even laugh without any sense of humor.
"Uncle Liu, why did you provoke him for no reason..."
In her subconscious, although Liu Guangqiu had some friendship with Prince Yi's Mansion because of the treasure offering, and the relationship was even stronger than Tuo Xiaoliu behind her, who was the other party? He was Ding Ren, who was in charge of the underground assassination organization and Prince Yi's absolute confidant.
There is absolutely no comparison!
Liu Guangqiu also secretly groaned, he really was complaining just now.
Although he had boasted about his relationship with Ding Ren before, he only said that they were familiar with each other and never dared to call him brother.
But now...it seems like I accidentally got it wrong.
Seeing this scene, many people who were jealous of the Liu family's sudden prosperity secretly gloated in their hearts. However, one person was shocked. This person was not tall, but very strong. He was Duolong, the nephew of Duoluo, the chief steward of Prince Yi's palace.
He originally planned to go to his uncle Duo Luo to report the matter, but after seeing this scene, he immediately quickened his pace and entered Kongtong Posthouse.
He had long heard of Ding Ren's vicious reputation. As for Liu Guangqiu, he had also heard his uncle vaguely mention him, and it seemed that he had a special relationship with his own prince.
If Commander Ding didn't know about this relationship and took action against Liu Guangqiu, then things would be troublesome, and his uncle might also be in trouble.
Coincidentally, as soon as he entered the posthouse, he met An Daohui, the chief steward of foreign affairs who was walking out.
"Manager An, Commander Ding has gone to the teahouse opposite to look for Mr. Liu Guangqiu..." and then he briefly explained the situation.
Unexpectedly, An Daohui smiled and said, "Don't worry about him. Even if he is Ding Ren, he has to serve our Master Liu obediently... He is not stupid."
Duolong felt relieved, as long as Ding Ren knew this old man named Liu Ye, it would be fine.
On the second floor of Qin's Teahouse, Liu Guangqiu was still a little dazed when he heard footsteps coming up the stairs.
It was not until Qin reminded him that he stood up in a panic. But before he could go forward, Ding Ren's big red figure had already appeared on the second floor.
"Deacon Ding, just now..."
Liu Guangqiu wanted to step forward to explain, but was interrupted by Ding Renxian, who said, "Uncle Liu, we can't bear what you said just now, brother..."
Seeing the smiling and amiable Ding Ren, Qin was stunned. Many people who were drinking tea on the second floor were also stunned. In the outside world, Ding Ren was known for his cruelty and brutality, but he had never been so kind.
However, they all began to re-examine the power behind Liu Guangqiu.
Originally, they thought that Liu Guangqiu was just lucky and got the bounty, which made him suddenly rich, and there might not be any real background behind him.
But now it seems that they were all wrong. The person who could make Ding Ren, the chief eunuch of Prince Yi's Mansion, treat him in a friendly manner must have great power behind him and they definitely cannot afford to offend him.
Ding Ren directly held Liu Guangqiu's arm and sat back down, and even took the initiative to pick up the teapot to pour tea. Of course, he did not forget to glance at Qin without leaving a trace.
I sighed in my heart. My prince's hobby...
With the intelligence capabilities of the An Hu under his command, they naturally knew the details of the Qin family, including how this teahouse was opened.
Otherwise, given the other party's poor background, they would never be able to take over this prime location. All of this was due to the power of Prince Yi's Mansion, or more precisely, the power of their own prince.
Even Qin himself didn't know this. He always thought that he could open a teahouse smoothly, and in such a good location, because of Tuo Xiaoliu.
Little did they know, this was a shop with the best location in the Western Frontier Royal City, opposite the Kongtong Posthouse. There were countless people watching it, and Tuo Xiaoliu's identity alone was not enough to intimidate these people.
The most fundamental reason was that the incident of their own prince at the roadside tea stall had already been known to these people. No matter how brave they were, they dared not compete with the woman that Prince Yi had set his eyes on.
If Jiang Yi knew about this, he would probably cry out in injustice, because he didn't mean that at all, at least not at the moment.
I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
Let me take this opportunity to say a few words.
Due to personal reasons, I took a break from writing this book. Now that I have picked it up again, I will not give up halfway, I will not leave it unfinished, and I will finish the story. Please rest assured.
But the performance will not improve any more, so the update can only be maintained once a day, and I have to devote my energy to conceiving a new book.
I hope that the book friends who are still reading this book can occasionally cast a recommendation vote. Seeing the recommendation votes increase every day is also an encouragement to me. At least I will not be disappointed because of the lack of recommendation votes...
In addition, just like I basically never check my Moments, I rarely check the comment section, so I can’t reply. I’m very sorry about this. I will slowly correct this habit in the future. After all, it’s an honor for me as the author of this book to be able to interact with fellow book lovers!
Once again, I would like to thank all the book friends who support this book. I wish all the book friends good health, happy family, successful career, and get through this cold winter of the epidemic together!
