The Rich And Powerful Chang An - Chapter 21-22
Chapter 21
When Xus father and daughter were thrown out of w.a.n.g Residence, they happened to meet His Fourth Highness, Xiao Qing Yu, who had not come to w.a.n.g Residence for a long time.
Is not his brother always known for his good temper? How in addition to his own residence, his brother have thrown out the residence’s slave servants here?
Paying respect to His Fourth Highness!
How did these two people offend my brother? And thrown out? Someone was thrown out, Xiao Qing Yus first reaction was naturally an inferior people, but when he walked in, he found that the clothes they wore could not be inferior.
Without waiting for the two Wu brothers to explain, Xu Yinghui, whose legs and feet had recovered a little, immediately got up and greeted Xiao Qing Yu with a look of wors.h.i.+p: This girl Xu Yinghui pay respect to His Fourth Highness.
“Your Highness, this is the father and step-sister of w.a.n.g Fei. Because because of offending w.a.n.g Ye, they were driven out by w.a.n.g Ye.” Did not know how to explain, Wu Ren could only say so.
They still had tasks, and had to go to the palace, merely did not care about the Xu’s father and daughter, they left first.
After the two Wu brothers left, Xiao Qing Yu handed out the closed fan in his hand and let Xu Yinghui held it and helped her up.
Where is this beautiful young lady hiding in the past? Why has this royal highness never met? Xiao Qing Yu and Xiao Qing Yan had some similarities in appearance, only the slightly upturned corners of the mouth were not the same as those of the elder brother, less a serious more a kind.
A 1** year-old handsome young man, also a prince, Xu Yinghui stood up and looked at the people close by with a smile. She did not know whether it was nervous or not, but kept holding the things in her hands.
Miss, do you like this fan? So Ill send you. Xiao Qing Yu tried two times and could not pull back his things. He simply let go.
What are you doing? Still not going home! Xu Yongnian lost his face today and did not want to stay here any longer. Because they came here was Xu Yinghuis proposal, he put this account in Xu Yinghuis head, now facing Xu Yinghui there was no good temper.
Xu Yinghui had completely forgotten the humiliation she had just suffered, Fourth Highness, Xiao Qing Yu, who had just pa.s.sed over, made her eyes were full of heart. Looking at the folding fan in her hand, Xu Yinghui did not know what she was thinking, but she turned red and even smiled.
Following her father silently, Xu Yinghui was so excited that she knew G.o.d had always been good to her. Since childhood, she had always been better than Xu Chang An, the little b.a.s.t.a.r.d. It was unreasonable for him to press his head when he grew up.
Humph! What about Xian w.a.n.g? What about Xian w.a.n.g Fei? In this lifetime, Xian w.a.n.g can only be Xian w.a.n.g, also did not know when his Xian w.a.n.g Fei would achieved head. (T/n: I dont know)
But the Fourth Highness was different. He was also the son of the First Empress, the son of the well-deserved royal family. Maybe Fourth Prince could be more than just a prince.
After returning to his courtyard, Xu Chang An went directly to the room to take a mirror to look at the head injury, just a little red and swollen, even the skin had not broken, at night before going to bed, should be able to detumerate the swelling by tomorrow morning.
Although did not know why, Xu Chang An really appreciated Xiao Qing Yan when he thought about the affair, if he let others knew that the wound was because he knocked himself when pleaded Xiao Qing Yan, it would not be too good to the servants in the residence to see.
w.a.n.g Fei, w.a.n.g Ye is very kind to you. Many people came to see the bustling in w.a.n.g Feis courtyard today, but those people turned out the ‘bustling’. As a Yatou in w.a.n.g Feis courtyard, they were thinking of things for themselves and for w.a.n.g Fei. The yatous words, Xu Chang An heard and said only a sentence of w.a.n.g Ye people is good, and the other else he did not say much. He knew that this was Xiao Qing Yans kindness to him. Its just that people who were against him today were just the ones Xiao Qing Yan was more disgusted with.
Just before going to the firewood shed, Xu Chang An had made sure that Momo and them were all right, but they were just being locked up. He was relieved at last, and now he began to wonder how to open his mouth to Xiao Qing Yan to let people go.
For Xiao Qing Yan’s sake, Xu Chang An naturally wanted to think of how to please people. Today Xiao Qing Yan lost Min Yus face, and presumably would not go over to her side, Xu Chang An ordered the kitchen to make a lot of delicious food, but also let people prepare wine, ready to wait for Xiao Qing Yan to come. When people eat enough to be in good mood, only then he would plead.
At dinner time, Xu Chang An did not have to wait for Xiao Qing Yan, the imperial physician arrived. At first, when the imperial physician looked at Xu Chang Ans forehead, he was still complaining in his heart; isn’t that the relations.h.i.+p between Xian w.a.n.g and w.a.n.g Fei was not good? He had to go to the palace to invite people for such minor injuries. But when the physician checked Xu Chang An’s pulse, the old physician frowned.
w.a.n.g Fei, how can he have a poor health at a very young age? He did not noticed before, but at this time in a closer look, it was found that w.a.n.g Fei’s white complexion was somewhat dark yellowish, paled lips, weak pulse, this was caused by a long-term depression ah! It seemed that the rumour that Xu Family had been so unfair to him was not merely a rumor.
w.a.n.g Fei, you usually can catch cold easily and when the wind get cold, you cough become worse?
Its much better now. Xu Chang An had been in good health since he was a child. Although he was not loved by his father, his mother was very attentive to his daily life. She had never let him be wronged in eating and dressing. Its also three years since he got worse. But now his greatest wish had been accomplished, he would surely get better and better in the future.
The old imperial physician naturally knew what Xu Chang An meant, but he explained, “w.a.n.g Fei still needs to recuperate slowly. Its not a big deal, but its definitely not a small matter. Ill make a prescription for you. Its all warm food medicated diet. Let the servants in w.a.n.g’s go back with me to take the medicine, taking it for a year or so should be good.”
Thank you for your medicine, Chang An understood.
The old minister dare not, not deserve w.a.n.g Fei’s thanking old minister. w.a.n.g Fei, old minister goes to write the prescription first, you send a servant to walk with this minister.
Alright.
After the old imperial physician left, Xiao Qing Yan did not come. Xu Chang Yan knew at this time that Xiao Qing Yan had not come because the Fourth Highness had come. They two brothers had already eaten in Xiao Qing Yans study.
Without Yang Momo and them, Xu Chang An was not used to it all the time. He always felt that the room was s.p.a.cious, and it was uncomfortable to look at everywhere.
He had prepared a lot of wine and food in the afternoon, Xiao Qing Yan did not come back, Xu Chang An could not eat a lot of for a person, simply let people packed up the meal and personally sent to Momo.
w.a.n.g Fei, you Why did you come?
Cant I come? Xu Chang An suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. The pozi at the door saw him and her face fl.u.s.tered, she couldnt say a word. Something happened to Momo and them?
Get out of the way!
w.a.n.g Fei, w.a.n.g Fei! w.a.n.g Ye has spoken, you cant go in, please dont make things difficult for this old slave! Thats exactly what the pozi had said when he first came over, but she wasnt like this then.
A face of panic and fear, also directly kneeling on the ground, blocking in front of the door, for fear that he entered. saw what should not be seen?
Get out of my way! Even if there was w.a.n.g Yes words, how can they really do anything to him if he pushed harder?
Directly swerved around the pozi on the ground, he kicked to open the existing worn wooden door, Xu Chang An never would have thought, at noon Momo and them were still good, now unexpectedly all were wounded!
Chapter 22
There was no need to ask Momo what had happened to them. Xu Chang An knew that this must have been done by Min Yu. Today she was angry with him, so she immediately came here and let her own people make trouble.
Min Yu is really too arrogant! At this moment, Xu Chang An had some doubts whether Min Yu was the blood and flesh of Deputy Minister Min, how can someone bring up their daughter so lawless!
Young Master, today all blame ChunYu, this maid said too much and offended Min Cefei, just let her have reason to start, this is our own fault. What was the situation of her young master and w.a.n.g Ye? Yang Momo still knew a little bit. The young master was in a difficult situation in w.a.n.g Residence. They could not give him any more trouble. Moreover, today, it was indeed ChunYu that was reckless.
Xu Chang An had no idea what Yang Momo had said to him. He had already blamed himself for letting Momo and them be locked up because of his mistake. Now, because of him, he had let them be beaten. He could not think of anything else in his mind. He just wanted to be fair to them.
When Min Yu returned to her courtyard today, she could not bear to swallow her breath. When she thought of Xu Chang Ans slave servants, she went straight to the rear courtyard. Originally just wanted to scare them, by the way in front of them to say something bad about Xu Chang An, how did she know that ChunYu was impatient, and directly talked back to Min Yu! Min Yu let her yatou slapped Chunyu’s mouth, but was stopped by Dongxue.
Min Yu had been angry, and now even a few slaves were working against her, did not put her in the eyes, how can the heart tolerate this tone, simply raised her own hands.
No matter how ChunYu and DongXue were indulged by Xu Chang An usually, after all, they were sold into be maidservants of an official’s home from childhood, the established rule also understood, anyway they did not dare to start with Min Yu, so the two yatous were beaten by Min Yu’s people, on the cheeks were red and swollen, there were many scratches on the body, whole appearance was a mess.
Momo, wait here. Ill go and ask him to let you out. ChunYu, DongXue, do not be afraid! Xu Chang An said he was going to beg Xiao Qing Yan. In fact, he went directly to Min Yus courtyard. He didnt do anything else there. He just told Min Yu to let her move.
Why do you want me to move? Knowing that this was Xu Chang An to find trouble with her, but Min Yu was not afraid, anyway, w.a.n.g Ye did not like him, it did not matter anything.
Why? Then are you moving or not? Was that just because talking back? She was a Cefei, servants talking back and was beaten. He was w.a.n.g Fei, and she would be punished if she contradicted herself.
I will not move! Min Yu did not believe that Xu Chang An could do anything to her. He was just a man. What was he proud of? How long does he think he can play the name of w.a.n.g Fei?
You What do you want Ah! You! How dare you hit me? Watching Xu Chang An walk slowly towards herself, Min Yu felt nervous. She wanted to ask Xu Chang An what he was thinking, then she felt a burning pain on her face.
How dare Xu Chang An hit her?!
“Why dont I dare? Arent you a young lady of great family? Aren’t you the Deputy Minister’s daughter? Has your mother taught you the established rules of a concubine?” Xu Chang Ans heart was like a big fire burning, he was excited at the moment, he vaguely knew that he might be doing something wrong, but he did not mind even a bit, if even he could protect his own people, but could not protect himself, then what’s it means to be still alive!
Xu Chang An! You
Young lady! Don’t! Min Yu had already raised her hand, which was obviously to be waved towards Xu Chang An, but before she did, the Momo next to her quickly stopped her and, in a hurry, called her the name she had used in her boudoir time.
Humph! I will not move. If you have the abilit, you can drive me away directly! Min Yu was really angry, but after being pulled by her own Momo, some reasoning also came back, she just now really went down there, then she was in a great grievance and uselessness.
That’s being the case, you dont regret it later, Cefei. Xu Chang An knew that Min Yu and Qin Xin must be comrade. He just took this opportunity to separate them. Since Min Yu was unwilling to leave, let Qin Xin go. Besides, he had to arrange a good place for Qin Xin.
I am so angry, I am so angry! When Xu Chang An left, Min Yu smashed almost everything in front of her, but after all the things she could smash, she still couldnt get rid of her hatred. She had never suffered such a grievance since she was a child. She really couldnt bear it!
Young lady, if young lady really cant swallow this anger, we can do this The Momo beside Min Yu watched her grew up. Now she didnt know her, even her daughter’s husband all followed Min Yu out of her residence and to this w.a.n.g Residence. She was not for Min Yu but for herself, but it was necessarily for Min Yu to lead a smooth life in this residence.
After leaving Min Yu’s, Xu Chang An went straight to ask Xiao Qing Yan to set people free. Xiao Qing Yan originally had no intention of making things difficult for a few of his servants. After Xu Chang An went to ask for plead again, he simply promised to let them go.
Thank you, w.a.n.g Ye. w.a.n.g Ye, has His Fourth highness left? Did not fourth prince come here? How did he not see people?
Hn.
Seeing how Xiao Qing Yan looked like, Xu Chang An was anxious to pick up Yang Momo and get them out, so he left.
Before he had picked up people, Xu Chang An sent for a physician from outside. He was relieved when the physician came and said in person that they were all skin injuries.
Its all my fault this time. I knew you had heard it before, and you had been beaten and beaten. Xu Chang An was really self-reproaching, he already did not treat them as his own slaves, now they suffered because of his own problem, he was sad and panicked. Just now, he knew he should not do it, Min Yu was not a person who would suffer losses, and did not know what she will do in the future, but the heart was unable to help, he personally went to vent for Momo and them.
What did you say, young master, this is our
“w.a.n.g Fei, it’s not good. Its bad. Min Cefei has an accident.” Xu Chang An knew that Min Yu would never give up, but he didn’t think that she would react so quickly. As the yatou pa.s.sed by, Xu Chang An was still thinking about how to say this to Xiao Qing Yan. However, he didnt expect that his impulse would affect Xiao Qing Yan to be punished today.
Looking at Min Yu, who was still sleeping in a coma with a medicinal towel tied to her forehead, Xu Chang An felt some regret. He didnt really think that Min Yu should have such a strong temper. She b.u.mped into the corner of the table in a fit of anger after he left. Now she had been in a coma and fallen asleep.
After knowing the causes and consequences, Xiao Qing Yan only ordered his servants to take good care of Min Yu, then invited more physicians to come and see, and then let Xu Chang An be confined for three days.
Xu Chang An was forbidden to go out, but there was no complaint. Anyway, Momo and them came out and Min Yu was taught a lesson. He thought this was the end of the story. So the next day Xiao Qing Yan was summoned by the Emperor and the succeeding Empress to enter the palace, he did not know what had happened.
Yesterday, Xu Chang An was simply house-arrested by Xiao Qing Yan for three days. Min Yu was even more angry. She made such a bitter meat plan, but Xu Chang An was only punished to stay in his own room for three days. Moreover, she was so badly injured that Xiao Qing Yan just called a few physicians to come. Xu Chang An knocked a little mark on his forehead and the imperial physician from the palace was called.
Could not really swallow this anger, Min Yu, directly let people go back to her mothers house, so the next morning her mother went to the Empress Palace, crying heart-brokenly! Soon afterwards, the emperors verbal order and the Empresss decree came to Xian w.a.n.g Residence.
w.a.n.g Ye Although the intention of the palace was not explicitly stated, perhaps Chang An knew that it must have been for the sake of yesterday. He seemed to have caused trouble to Xiao Qing Yan.
Let’s tell the truth. Did not give Xu Chang An redundant words, he knew of yesterday. Xiao Qing Yan knew that Xu Chang An must have been afraid, but he didnt care. No matter how they made trouble, there was only one result.
His Imperial Father could not have abolished his t.i.tle for such a trivial matter, so at most it was a bit of discipline. Xu Chang An, the male wife, was requested by the Succeeding Empress to not come with him, neither make use of his w.a.n.g Fei’s position. Since he could not use his w.a.n.g Fei’s position, would naturally leave some face for Xian w.a.n.g Fei, so he would not have a problem.
Xu Chang An was very anxious. When he arrived at the Empresss palace, he saw a woman kneeling on the ground wearing an attire of n.o.ble rank. He thought that this person should be Min Yus mother.
Paying respect to Empress Niangniang. What important matter does the Empress declare to enter Chang An to the palace? It was already clear to them that maybe Xu Chang An would still be confused. Anyway, there was nothing wrong with what happened yesterday. They couldnt do anything about it.
Empress Niangniang, you have to do justice for my daugter, do justice for my daugter! As soon as Xu Chang An saw the Empress, the woman around him began to cry again. Xu Chang An estimated that she had obviously been crying for more than a while, her eyes were red, and her makeup was damaged.
Min Furen, your story had been heard. Now listen to what w.a.n.g Fei has to say. The Succeeding Empress did not know what att.i.tude she should take toward the woman, saying that their Min family and her prince were in the same boat, naturally she had to do them justice. But now because her daughter was treated coldly by Xian w.a.n.g Fei, she seek to enter the palace, what’s this? She cared so much about her daughter, now that her daughter had become Xian w.a.n.g’s Cefei, would they still do anything for her prince wholeheartedly in the future?
Empress Niangniang, Chen was summoned to the palace by you because of Min Cefei? Xu Chang An was naturally nervous before he arrived, but at this point he had no nervousness at all. Instead, he had a straight face.
The Empress didnt expect Xu Chang An to tell her directly, even thoughts she wanted to play negligent eyes with him for a while ago. She guessed in her heart that the Min family could not get a bargain for this affair. Hinting at Xu Chang Ans continuation of yesterdays matter, Xu Chang An did not be polite in mentioning directly.
“Chang An did it with good intentions, how do one know that Min Cefei not only did not feel grateful but also spoke back, even called Chang An by name! At that time, I was also angry, so I began to teach her a lesson, how can I know the Mins daughters temper, even because of a little bit of trivial things directly can’t think and collide with the corner of the table.” Xu Chang An neglected to mention about ChunYu and their’s story, and then he spoke straightforwardly and vigorously. This was the case on the bright side of the story. Even today Min Yu could not refute it here.
Good intentions? My daughter lives well in her own courtyard. w.a.n.g Fei, in regard with you wanted to move her away, do you have a reason? Besides, she was so badly injured that w.a.n.g Fei did not go to the palace to seek the imperial physician, but went to some unknown physicians. Arent you afraid what happened to her because of the physicians delay?”
Uh huh, Min Furen, pay attention to your tone. Now the Empress looked at Min family was not pleasing to her eyes’ On the contrary, she had a good impression of Chang Ans heart, which made Xiao Qing Yan suffered a great loss, no matter what reason, it was precisely because of this Xu Chang An, her Prince was only a step away from the throne, she had to thank him for everything.
The Empresss response was in the eyes of Min Yus mother, and it was Xu Chang Ans protection. She lost her head immediately. She was able to get into the palace on the basis of their relations.h.i.+p with the second prince. What else can she do?
“Min Furen, you know, when a woman marries her husband, now your daughter is not Young Lady Min, but Min Cefei of Xian w.a.n.g Residence, yes? Now are you going to let Xian w.a.n.g and w.a.n.g Fei regarded her as the young lady of Min Family?” The Empress didnt even go to see Min Yus mother. Her tone was also satirical.
Empress Niangniang? Min Yu’s mother was completely panicked, why did the Empress reproached her?
Yesterday, the palace has learned that although w.a.n.g Fei was impulsive, but he wasn’t wrong, disciplining the concubines and the household affairs of Xian w.a.n.g is within w.a.n.g Fei’s duty and authority. Min Furen didn’t tell to this palace, that Min Daren’s concubine was abused by you, you still in all respect exercising forbearance of it.
Chen qie admit mistake! Empress Niangniang, w.a.n.g Fei Niangniang Daren do not care much about the concubines. Chen qie’s beloved daughter was anxious and did not know the law, only went to seek Empress Niangniang, beg Empress Niangniang forgiveness! A loud head knocked down, two tears fell directly on the ground, Min Yu s.h.i.+ knew that her daughters life was ruined.
Originally was prepared to carry a thousand catty of heavy burden on top of his head, Xu Chang An did not expect at this time it was unexpectedly so gently put down, the Empress unexpectedly did not embarra.s.s him at all? Anyway, it was not expected by Xu Chang An, who had come out of the Empresss palace, was ready to go back with Xiao Qing Yan. But he waited outside the Emperors Taiji Palace for a long time and did not see Xiao Qing Yan came out.
He anxiously inquired before he knew that Xiao Qing Yan had just disciplined by the emperor, and they went together the Changsheng Palace where Xiao Qing Yans mothers bier was located.
Xu Chang An met the Emperor at the entrance of Changsheng Palace, after giving ceremony to the Emperor, he looked up and saw that the emperor was looking at him too. Neither answered his greeting nor gave him a lesson. He just looked at him and went straight away.
Xiao Qing Yan Suddenly the heart jumped, and Xu Chang Ans intuition, Xiao Qing Yan, must have a mishap.
Hurriedly trotted in, not a moment later, Xiao Qing Yans back appeared in front of him. He still knelt at his mothers as he did last time, still did not kneel down on the cattail cus.h.i.+on as before.
Your Highness
Did the Empress make things difficult for you?
No. Only a glimpse, Xu Chang An regretted it. Xiao Qing Yan had obvious fingerprints on his left face, sweat on his forehead. Apparently he was more than just slapped in the face by the emperor. There would definitely be other places otherwise he would not be looking so exhausted like that.
Your Highness Im sorry. Recently, all these things were due to his own, Xu Chang An suddenly felt uncomfortable, sour swelling, inexplicable pain. Following to kneel beside Xiao Qing Yan, Xu Chang An kowtowed three times directly to the spiritual tablet of the First Empress, and then remained silent, looking at Xiao Qing Yan, who was streaming sweating but still had his back straight.
The author has something to say: grow together.
