"Wait a minute, ma'am."

The person who came was Lu Buwei's attendant, Xia Chi.

"Why, can't I ask a sour scholar who beat my son to apologize?"

Daiyu opened her mouth with a bad temper.

"No, no, that's not what it means to be small." Xia Chi was sweating coldly behind Daiyu's stare, unable to bear her cold eyes, she simply lowered her head and said, "Master Lu asked me to ask Madam to go back quickly, I I wanted Madam to entrust this matter to the younger ones, and it would save some time for Madam to go back home, but since Madam wants to personally punish this crazy sycophant, then the younger ones will not bother."

"Hmph." Daiyu knew that he saw him making a move, so she had scruples in her heart, and she didn't want to expose his little trick. She straightened her sleeves, turned around, and said to Suanru, who was facing white lips: "This time It's a bit late to apologize. If you were so happy just now, this matter would be over, but you were beaten up before you opened your mouth unwillingly. Not to mention that I don't think it is sincere enough, even the old master Confucius can't see it. It’s too much of a scholar’s ​​integrity.”

As soon as Daiyu finished speaking, the man holding the bamboo slip beside Suanru said, "Then what should you do?"

"Losing money. I don't know how to talk, so I just use money to fill it. I don't want you too much, 20 taels of silver is fine, and if there is no silver, I can exchange it into cloth coins and give it to my son." Daiyu said calmly.

Cloth coins are one of the main coins used in Zhao State. Cloth coins are mainly divided into three types: pointy-footed cloth, round-footed cloth, and square-footed cloth.Also in circulation are knife coins, which are also the main currency in circulation in Qi and Yan.

"20 taels of silver?! You are a robber!" screamed Suanru who was beaten.

"You are only allowed to bully others, and I am not allowed to ask you two for compensation? How can there be such a reason in the world!" Daiyu finished, "It's okay if you don't give it. I'll just let my servant in the mansion tie you up and teach me a lesson. , I think you might prefer this way, Xia—"

"Slowly!" The Suanru's face turned blue, and while he stretched out his hand to interrupt Daiyu hastily, he said, "I'll give it, but I don't have that much money..."

"It's okay if you don't have money, Xia—"

"Wait, wait!! I'll give it now, I'll give it here!" The sour scholar looked at the tendons and flesh on Xia Chi's body, and then at his size, swallowed secretly, and immediately licked it from his body and sleeves. Start touching money.Scholars like them usually have some spare money, and when they searched around, they found a lot of broken silver. Although it was not enough for 20 taels, there were still seven or eight taels.

But these scraps of silver refused to send Daiyu away at all. Seeing Daiyu's expressionless face, Suan Confucian scholar understood what she meant, and immediately tightened his grip on the silver in his hand, and tugged at the sleeves of his fellow robes, Give him a look.

The fellow-pao also showed a bit of loyalty, without saying a word, he took off the cloth bag on his shoulder, and found out a pile of knives, coins and scraps of silver inside, and made up a total of 30 taels.Confucian Confucian saw that the money was all right, he whispered embarrassingly at his colleague, saying that he would borrow it from him first, and then pay him back when he had the money after a while.His fellow robe also nodded, the sour scholar found 20 taels and asked his fellow robe to bring it to Daiyu, he knew that his dirty smell was offensive, so he didn't want to offend him.

Daiyu looked coldly at the man with the bamboo slips handing over the money, but she didn't take it, she just said: "Zheng'er, I'm giving you money, are you willing to accept it?"

"The money will definitely be accepted, but he hasn't apologized yet!"

Ying Zheng's look of "I am number one in the world, no one will give me face" made the sour Confucian almost fall on his back in anger.

But perhaps he felt that his face was on the ground, and it wouldn't hurt to throw it any more, so he gritted his teeth and cupped his hands to Ying Zheng and said, "Please, this little brother, please spare me this time, I'm not good at it." Knowing Taishan, I dare not do it again. I will also apologize to my wife and all the women. It is all my fault for generalizing and not being able to spit ivory out of a dog's mouth. It should be beaten, it should be beaten!"

As he said that, he really slapped two big mouths on his face, and the red blood streaks were clearly visible, so Ying Zheng lowered his eyes and said, "Since you admitted your mistake, I will reluctantly accept your apology." Bar."

After saying this, Ying Zheng unceremoniously took the money from his comrade Suanru.

"Let's forget about it for the time being. If you dare to bully my son again in the future, I won't let you off so easily!" Daiyu said lightly, and was about to take Yingzheng's hand and leave.

At this time, the colleague who had been silent all this time spoke up: "I have met Mrs. Zhao, she has never cared much about her son, who are you?"

Daiyu said without turning her head:

"No matter who I am, I am Zheng'er's mother. I am today and I will be in the future. As long as you dare to move a finger of him, I will not spare you. But—Xia Chi, he knew the truth and killed her." killed him!"

After finishing speaking, the figures of the mother and son disappeared at the end of the alley.

The fellow robe only felt his eyes go dark, accompanied by a bloody light and a scream that stopped abruptly, he didn't know anything.

Xia Chi looked at the two still warm corpses in front of him, and put away the knife expressionlessly.

"Sister Yu'er, is what you just said true? Will you always protect me?"

When he was about to reach the door, Ying Zheng suddenly spoke.

"That depends on your performance. If you are being bullied all the time, of course I have to protect you; if you grow up to be an indomitable man, what difference does it make if you have me or not?"

As the sun was setting, Daiyu lifted her hair from her temples and said.The sun shone on her eyelashes, coating them with a layer of golden light.

"But I want to be an upright man, and I also want you to protect me~"

Ying Zheng lowered his head and said in a low voice, the baby fat on his face was crowded together, looking a little pitiful.

Daiyu looked at his wrinkled bun-like face, couldn't help laughing, knelt down, hugged his waist with one hand and said: "Then quickly become stronger, your wish will always come true."

"Okay, that's for sure!"

"A word is settled!"

After pulling the hook, the two laughed.

All of this was seen by Lu Buwei standing at the door.

That night, Daiyu quietly avoided Ximi, the maidservant who was watching the night, and went to Yingzheng's room, and woke him up, who was still asleep. sent out, quietly came to Zhao Ji's room.

Daiyu asked Yingzheng to fetch water, and she took out the pills she prepared during the day, and the pills shone with a faint silver light in the completely dark house.Daiyu nodded secretly in her heart, but suddenly she turned her head and saw Ying Zheng holding a spoonful of water with a dull expression on his face.

"What are you looking at? Feed the medicine!" Daiyu whispered.

Only then did Ying Zheng feed Zhao Ji saliva, and Daiyu opened her thin, almost fleshless jaw, stuffed the pill in, raised her head a little, and punched her chest, Zhao Ji was shocked. Feeling stimulated, he subconsciously swallowed the medicine.

"Okay, let's go."

Daiyu took advantage of the moonlight to look at Zhao Ji's face, which had already begun to turn red, and knowing that it was not too late, she pulled Ying Zheng outside.

But the two still ran into Lu Buwei who had been prepared for a long time.

So, Daiyu and Lu Buwei called them to drink tea together.

"Don't be nervous." Daiyu followed behind Lu Buwei and mouthed Ying Zheng.

Only then did Ying Zheng relax a little, and his body was not so tense.

The two followed Lu Buwei into his house.

Lu Buwei is a person who knows how to enjoy himself. The place where he lives is also equipped with all kinds of furnishings, from the ingenious potted plants to the backflow incense burner in the style of a boy picking lotus. There is a pleasant scent of sandalwood in the room, thick and Quaint.Daiyu was not very surprised when she saw this, but Yingzheng had never seen these exquisite things before, his expression of surprise was almost on the surface, if Daiyu hadn't pinched him, he would have shown that he had never seen it What the world looks like.

Demeanor and knowledge are the most basic things a future emperor must have. Even if he has never seen it before, he can't show an expression of "Grandma Liu is entering the Grand View Garden", it is too embarrassing.

By the way, who is Grandma Liu?

Daiyu didn't know where this word came from her mind, but when she thought of this word, an amiable old woman with dark and yellow skin appeared in front of her eyes.

It seems that they are people from the previous world.Daiyu thought to herself.

She was immersed in her own world, casually found a seat and sat down, but Lu Buwei was about to say——

"Why did you set foot in Zhao Ji's room tonight for no reason, Zheng'er, didn't I say that you are not allowed to take your mother there? Why don't you listen to Father Zhong?"

Lu Buwei frowned and asked in a low voice, with a bit of gunpowder in his tone.

Ying Zheng pursed his lips and remained silent for a while before speaking, "I just want to meet her, nothing else."

"No other meaning? Your mother is sitting next to you, and you still want to see others. Didn't I give you this opportunity during the day? Do you know that you will embark on a journey to Qin tomorrow, and you are still here If you get entangled in her matter, I think you, hey, you can't do big things!"

Lu Buwei flicked his sleeves, obviously angry.

Daiyu looked at the white smoke slowly flowing from the backflow incense burner, and said slowly, "What is the big thing in Mr. Lu's eyes? He is only a six-year-old child, and he can bear to part with his mother." Tears are extremely difficult, but I don't quite understand what your lord said, you are about to say goodbye to your mother, don't you even have the right to look twice?"

Lu Buwei coughed, it was obvious that Daiyu's words were a bit heartbreaking, her eyes flickered, she drank a sip of wine, and then said: "Even if you want to go, there is no need to go in vain, you turn on the light, light a Candlelight, just ask Ximi and the others to accompany you, if you do this..."

"It's just that Zheng'er and I want to see this miserable woman alone. Mr. Lu's words are a bit serious. What can we, a helpless woman and a child, do?" Daiyu After saying this, he glanced at the beam intentionally or unintentionally, and picked up a fruit from the fruit plate to eat.

Xia Chi on the beam couldn't help shivering, but he couldn't make a sound.

Damn, this woman is really scary! !

Lu Buwei's face was a little ugly by Daiyu's choking. He is a businessman after all. Although he is a well-known wealthy businessman, the status of a businessman is still very humble in this era. Although Daiyu has no ring finger in these two sentences, it is already Not very nice to say.To say that he is suspicious and narrow-minded does not count, but also to say that he is cold-hearted, arbitrary, and cunning.

The real straight male cancer Lu Buwei expressed that he had to take another sip of wine slowly.

"It's my words." Lu Buwei slowly put down the wine bottle, and finally decided to get to the point: "I called you this time, and I have one more thing to tell you."

Daiyu raised her eyes at once.

"Young master Zichu—that is, Zheng'er's biological father is about to ascend to that position with the help of me, Lu Buwei. At that time, he will definitely choose beauties to fill the harem, Miss Yu, I think you understand what I mean, your son and Relying on Zheng'er alone, you should know how to do it." Lu Buwei touched the fine texture of the wine bottle with his fingers, and said slowly word by word.

"Reliance?" Daiyu laughed, "My reliance has always been me, so what's the matter with Zheng'er? What's more, even if the young master Zi Chu accepts his wife, he will definitely have a cute child like Zheng'er? In my mother country, I heard something else about this Mr. Chu, saying that he is weak and his physical strength is not very good. Since this is the case, his mind must be on state affairs, and it is not certain how much he can put on women. Why does Mr. Lu pay so much attention to this matter? Furthermore, Mr. Lu might as well think about it, is it more cost-effective to have a child to teach than Mrs. Chong Xing’s effort? I think that although the six-year-old Zheng’er is not considered An unworldly talent, but it is enough for the son to inherit the father's career."

Lu Buwei's heart was scratched by Daiyu's slashing words, he wanted to speak but couldn't refute, his lips trembled a few times, and said: "Then according to your words, how should we deal with this harem matter?"

"From my point of view, that is to let nature take its course. My duty is to teach Zheng'er well. As long as I teach Zheng'er so that people dare not ignore him and are generous and decent, then no matter how much Zichu prefers other children or even wants to entrust him Those courtiers would not agree to such a heavy responsibility. Zheng'er is the first son and the eldest son, if he is talented and educated, then—"

Daiyu paused meaningfully.Her pause caused Lu Buwei, who was drinking, to stop.

"Continue talking." Lu Buwei urged.

"Then there won't be a so-called second candidate. What's more, what is the purpose of my lord when he picked me up and let me go to Qin with Zheng'er? It's just because I like my skin. I am confident that I have the ability." To help the government, I just ask Mr. Lu not to forget what he said that day."

"Good! Good! Good!" Lu Buwei clapped his palms and said happily, "That's really good, I want to know now, which side of your mother's clan is Miss Yu, I don't know—"

"Hey, my mother's family has been an official for generations. I, a troubled woman, can't bring shame to the family and insult the family's reputation. Please forgive me, Lord Lu." Daiyu said tactfully.

"Oh, that's right." Lu Buwei stroked his beard, rolled his eyes a few times, and smiled again at the corners of his drooping mouth, "Since it's not convenient for the girl to tell, I won't ask, I just asked someone to give it to you." You guys have prepared your luggage, and you should be on your way in two hours, you should rest early. Guiqiao, take the two of you back to your room."

A little maid with a simple hair ornament stood out from outside the house. The maid bowed her head and responded. Daiyu and Ying Zheng got up and saluted Lu Buwei, and then followed the maid and left.

After the two left, the smile on Lu Buwei's face wrinkled, he snorted coldly, and muttered to himself, "You're too young to play tricks with me."
