An Empire as a Betrothal Gift - Chapter 90

They had a night’s rest in the inn, and the next morning they went downstairs for breakfast, and then set out to continue their journey.

It was too early and there were few people in the hall. The shopkeeper is dialing the abacus, the shop assistant is dozing off bit by bit, and the other guests are still sleeping in the room.

When Ji Yue and Wei Lian went downstairs, the shopkeeper looked up and said, “the two guests come down so early.”

Ji Yue sat down at a table: “two bowls of porridge and four steamed buns.”

“OK.” The shopkeeper knocked on the man’s head, “go and ask the cook to get up and work, two bowls of porridge and four steamed buns.”

The man was sleeping soundly, but he was suddenly knocked awake. His expression was still a little wooden: “Oh OK

He rubbed his bleary eyes and went to the kitchen to inform him.

Soon, the steaming porridge and steamed stuffed bun were brought up, and the man said, “my guest, take your time.” He put it down.

Wei Lian picked up the chopsticks and was ready for use. The shopkeeper snapped off the abacus and sighed, “yesterday, I can’t make ends meet again. This year, business is sluggish. Xiaodu, let’s go ahead and postpone the salary of this month for a few more days… ”

The man said, “ah,” with a sad face, “shopkeeper, our wages have been reduced by two Wen last month. I have to support my mother. It can’t be any longer. ”

When Wei Lian heard this, he couldn’t help asking: “I saw that the business in the lobby was very busy last night. Why can the shopkeeper make ends meet?”

The shopkeeper said with a bitter smile, “my guest, are you not from the state of Chu?”

Wei Lian Yi Xiang.

He was the son of the state of Chu. He had been in Qin for only half a year, but he was thought to be not from Chu when he revisited his hometown.

“Why?” he asked

“Some days ago, the state of Chu and the state of Qin fought a war.” The shopkeeper said, “the war costs people and money, and the economy is in depression. If it wasn’t for the childe’s income Well, I don’t know when it will be ready. ”

Suddenly, hearing his name from other people, Wei Lian’s expression moved: “and then?”

“The young master has gone to the state of Qin, and we have temporarily suspended the war.” The shopkeeper said, “but your majesty doesn’t want to recuperate. Instead, he wants to build a crystal palace and a golden lotus terrace for Wu Ji. The whole lotus terrace is made of pure gold and built on the water. Wu Ji is asked to dance on it. Just after the war, the Treasury is empty, where is the extra money? The imperial court issued an order to raise the national tax to 50% 50% tax! How can we afford to live with tight belts? Many shops have closed down in the past few months. I’m a century old brand. I’ve been handed down from my grandfather’s generation, and now it’s quite difficult What your majesty has done is, alas

As soon as the shopkeeper vomited the bitter water, he poured it endlessly. He scared the fellow crazy and winked: “shopkeeper, don’t say it!”

My majesty, I was told by the government that I would kill my head!

Wu Ji is also the new love of the king of Chu. She is a Ji concubine who is very good at dancing. The king of Chu has always been ridiculous in terms of beauty, but now he still has such a lack of propriety. It is not absurd but stupid.

Under the heavy tax, the people are full of complaints, but it is useless to protest. They will be suppressed by officers and soldiers by force.

Wei Lian frowns. The taxes of the state of Qin are 10% while those of the state of Chu are 50% It’s too high.

Sooner or later, the state of Chu will perish.

What is his father thinking.

“Oh.” Delicate female voice, chilling familiar.

Lin Yan’er, in a purple dress, bares her fragrant shoulder and lotus root arms, her nails painted with bright red Cardan and her armrest, twisting her waist down the stairs.

She’s beautiful. She’s a real beauty. At the age of 25, she is more than a cardamom girl.

It must be obscene for ordinary people to take a look at such a dress, but it’s also erotic. At least last night, half of the men’s eyes in the lobby were glued to her.

Wei Lian has only one idea.

Finally, she changed into a purple dress.

Because first empress dowager’s reason, Ji Yue hates purple most. In the face of this color, his patience will plummet and his anger will rise. If Lin Yan’er at this time again casually tease, say what should not say, the more Ji hit a woman, he did not know, afraid Ji more anger into lust to vent on him.

But now there are only two of them in the lobby. It is impossible for Lin Yan’er not to provoke them.

As soon as Lin Yan’er saw Wei Lian, her eyes lit up: “Lang Jun also got up so early. I have a good fate with me. Do you mind if I sit here? ”

Speaking so, Lin Yan’er has sat down naturally.

She gave up those thoughts to Wei Lian. If she wants any man, she doesn’t need to paste a broken sleeve. But for the first time in her life, Lin Yan’er is curious.

Her eyes were shining with a breath called gossip.

The young man in white had not spoken yet. The young man in red with a mask said coldly, “mind.”

Lin Yan’er said with a smile: “don’t be angry, my sister won’t rob a man with you.”Young man in red: “that’s not what you said yesterday.”

Wei Lian looks at Ji Yue strangely.

Has Ji Yue found that he has naturally accepted the identity of his younger brother?

“Did you have a good time last night?” Lin Yan’er, who is a female version of the flower picking robber, has always had no integrity. The problem is more explicit than the other, “is the younger brother comfortable? Is this gentleman good at bed? How many times a night

Ji Yue’s patience is rapidly disappearing, word by word: “do, Qing, what, matter?”

“It’s quite vinegar.” Lin Yan’er fanned her nose in a gesture, “people are just curious. I haven’t seen a broken sleeve yet. ”

Wei Lian asked, “have you ever seen a dead girl?”

Lin Yan’er laughed and said, “Lang Jun is really an interesting person. Only in books, of course

Wei Lian really chatted with her: “why do you read that kind of book, girl?”

“You don’t understand,” Lin Yan’er said

You don’t know the joy of love.

This pair is very cute. What happened to Wenrun and Aojiao

Wei Lian is frightened by Lin Yan’er’s gaze, but she continues to ask: “the girl is very fragrant, I don’t know…” What kind of spices are used?

However, Ji put down her chopsticks without any expression.

There was a terrible chill all over.

Wei Lian has no doubt that Ji Yue is brewing the atmosphere of lifting the table and leaving.

Or even more ruthlessly, brewing the atmosphere of killing people.

Wei Lian swallowed the question in silence and whispered, “don’t be angry.”

Ji more sarcastic smile: “ah.”

Wei Lian pulled his sleeve, and his ears turned red: “husband…”

He was thin skinned, and had done his best with such a call.

It’s really shameful to shout in front of outsiders!

Ji more listen to this sound a Zheng, side look at the young man’s bashful appearance, heart depression swept away, suddenly refreshing.

“I’ll take care of you in the evening.” Ji Yue vowed sovereignty and deliberately let the opposite Lin Yan’er hear this sentence.

“Go.” Ji Yue gets up and strides out of the gate of the inn.

Wei Lian quickly packed up his things to keep up.

Lin Yan’er, alone, remains in place with a dull and confused look.

She had been stunned twice in two days.

The first was shock. The two were a couple.

The second time, she was shocked that she stood in reverse.

…… That high cold banishment fairy fan son white clothes youth unexpectedly shyly calls fried hair easy anger red clothes younger brother husband???

Little brother also said to clean him up tonight???

My God, this is the new year.

It’s a little bit exciting.

Ji walked faster and faster. Wei Lian packed the luggage behind him and chased after him: “you wait for me!”

Ji dropped her eyes more and more and stopped.

Wei Lian walked up to him and complained, “what are you doing so fast?”

“I don’t walk so fast. Do you think you’re having a good time?” Ji Yue Liang Liang Dao.

Wei Lian stopped, but said: “I just feel She has something in common with mynna

Ji Yue light way: “same read person numerous?”

“No Wei Lian shook his head. “It’s the fragrance on her body.”

is as like as two peas in Myrna.

In addition, the women in the Central Plains probably can’t be so bold. However, people in Liang state are open, and women like to expose their skin.

The only clue they had to find the person to curse was mynna. Wei Lian’s resurrection pill is from mynna, of course, he cares about all the clues related to it.

In the final analysis, what he cares about is Ji Yue.

“Liang is rich in spices and has trade with other countries.” Ji Yue looks a little slower, “it’s not strange to smoke the same fragrance.”

Wei Lian said, “but at the beginning, I have smelled all the thousands of spices offered by the state of Liang. None of them is like this.”

The more Ji gazed at him, her expression was strange.

Wei Lian raised his eyes: “what’s the matter?”

“Nothing.” Ji more hesitant way, “just feel your sense of smell and memory is very terrible.”

In fact, he was still thinking about how boring he would be before he could smell a thousand spices one by one.

It seems that he ignored ah Lian when he was busy with government affairs, so he should spend more time with him in the future.

Wei Lian said Thank you for the compliment

“So,” Ji looked down, not very happy, “we have to go back to find her?”

Wei Lian asked, “will you be angry?”

Ji Yue looked at him: “I will never be angry with you.”

“But you’ll be sulky.” Wei Lian has seen him through.

Ji Yue turned his head and said Hum. ”

Wei Lian asked with a smile, “do you still clean me up at night?”Ji Yue still twisted his head: “it is to clean up.”

But in fact, he can’t do anything to Wei Lian.

In addition to the days when Wei Lian was out of control before he left for Jiangzhou, Ji Yue was very gentle to Wei Lian whether he was in bed or out of bed. Even if sometimes want to give people some small punishment, Wei Lianhong once eye or sprinkle a Jiao, admit defeat is Ji Yue.

This person is always ruthless, and even goes too far when he is in love. If Wei Lian pesters Ji Yue again, Ji Yue will take a cold bath because he is worried about Wei Lian’s body.

To leave the unbelievable youth there is not only angry to curse, but also a warm heart, sour and sweet.

Wei Lian has never seen anyone more gentle to him than Ji Yue.

He was always fearless in front of this man.

Well, he is willing to do anything for Ji Yue.

Wei Lian chuckled, leaned over and whispered in Ji Yue’s ear.

The more shocked Ji turned back.

The lip under the mask is light, but it can’t cover the fast red face and earlobe.

Ah Lian is really

Wei Lian had said so many whispers to him, and never one of them let his mind explode more.

Wei Lian said —

“how to deal with me?”

“Is it enough to kiss Ji Xiaoyue?”
