Seeing Yu Linglong’s thoughtful gaze, Blue and White Tiger asked cautiously: “Boss, what’s the matter?”
Yu Linglong raised her hand, pointed at the figure facing away from them inside the door, and said, “Do you know who he is?”
Blue and White Tiger looked in the direction of her finger and immediately replied: “That is a regular customer in the gambling house . No one knows his ident.i.ty, but everyone knows that he is very rich . I have heard someone call him Master Feng . ”
Yu Linglong curled her lips and sneered . That’s right, Feng Sihuai .
She hadn’t seen Minister Feng’s son for a long time, and she didn’t expect to meet him here .
Since you b.u.mped into her, don’t blame her for being rude .
Yu Linglong beckoned Blue and White Tiger to come over, whispered a few words in his ear, and Blue and White Tiger’s face changed slightly: “Boss, this…”
Yu Linglong said coldly: “What are you afraid of? I am here . ”
Hearing these words, Blue and White Tiger was completely relieved . His boss was the dignified Princess Xu, who dared to provoke her?
Thinking about it this way, Blue and White Tiger immediately let go of his worried heart, and immediately agreed: “Yes, boss . Don’t worry, I promise to get things done properly . ”
Finally, he glanced at the figure who was still happily calling for a bet . Yu Linglong smiled faintly and went down the stairs .
Feng Sihuai had never had a chance to clean him up, but he didn’t expect that he would come to the door himself, bringing about his own path to destruction .
…
From the Ruyi Gambling House, it was getting late, and Yu Linglong took Ling’er back to the palace .
As soon as she entered the gate, she felt something was wrong with the atmosphere in the palace . The butler and the servant at the gate were all bitter as if they had just been scolded by someone . When the people in the palace saw Yu Linglong coming back, they immediately smiled, rushing to tell each other: “The princess is back, the princess is back!”
Yu Linglong felt a little strange when she saw a long figure stride out .
Seeing her standing safe and sound at the door, Lord Xu’s dark face eased a little . He stepped forward and grabbed her hand and looked up and down . He couldn’t help but frown when he saw the men’s clothing on her and asked in a deep voice: “Where have you been?”
Seeing his strangely ugly face, Yu Linglong couldn’t help feeling a bit funny . Lord Xu had recently gone out early and returned late . She didn’t tell him that she was going out today . She didn’t expect this guy to come back and not see her, or that he would put on such a stinky face .
Looking at the servants around him who were serving carefully, Yu Linglong could easily guess that it was probably because Lord Xu had already lost his temper just now, and the servants in the palace were scared .
Yes, before marrying her, Lord Xu always had a smile on his face, as if he didn’t care about anything, but after getting married, his temper became more and more like hers . Some people thought she had a magic power to make a romantic prince become so carefree .
Her little hand patted his big hand, which was holding on to her tightly, and lightly pinched the back of his hand when people were not paying attention . She smiled and said, “Husband, why are you back so early today?”
Looking at her smile, Lord Xu finally looked a little better, but he still asked reluctantly: “Don’t interrupt me . I asked where you have been, why didn’t you bring the guards?”
The sudden disappearance of her last time almost gave him a psychological shadow . Today, he was panicking outside for no reason, so he returned to the mansion early . Who knew that she was not in the mansion when he came back .
The maid who was serving was severely reprimanded, and even the unknowing porter and guards were not spared . Then he immediately ordered people to move out of the house and all the streets to look for the princess . Even though he knew that he was angering others, he couldn’t find her, and he just couldn’t help his temper .
It wasn’t until he saw her come back unscathed that his heart finally relaxed .
It’s just that he still had to have a stern face, otherwise the woman will leave as soon as she says with no manners at all, and sooner or later he will be scared into a mental breakdown .
Seeing his sharp eyebrows frowning tightly together, Yu Linglong felt distressed . She regretted going out and not reporting to him in advance, and her tone was gentle: “I won’t next time, husband, don’t be angry . ”
When he saw her soft, even if Lord Xu regained his anger, it was rubbed away by her delicate appearance, and his cold and hard heart instantly turned into water .
He grabbed her soft waist and squeezed her waist like a punishment . He said in a deep voice, “No one is allowed to go out and run around! Will you remember!?”
Yu Linglong smiled sweetly: “I’ll remember . ”
She apologized . Anyway, it was her own man, so it was not a shame to pay for it .
However, she apologized, so why did he still refuse to take the big hand off her waist?
A bit of anger still remained on Lord Xu’s face, but his big hand was placed on her waist, and he didn’t even mean to take it away .
In fact, his attention had long been shifted to her clothes . He had always known that she was a stunning beauty, but he did not expect that she would look so good in menswear, much more than when she was dressed in gorgeous dresses . She looked more heroic, and she seemed to have a different charm .
If it weren’t for the yard, in front of so many people, he really wanted to “enjoy” it .
But in front of outsiders, he still had to retain the dignity of a master and walked towards the room with her .
“Are you hungry?”
Knowing that he was still ignited, Yu Linglong was anxious to seize this opportunity to divert his attention, and nodded quickly: “I’ve been hungry for a while . ”
Lord Xu snorted, and said, “Who let you run outside and without eating anything!”
Having said that, his big hand waved back, and the maids understood and quickly went to prepare food .
Yu Linglong smiled and said, “As a matter of fact, I was thinking of you, so I didn’t dare to stay outside . ”
After saying this, Yu Linglong herself felt that she was being too corny .
However, Lord Xu was obviously absorbing everything, and the last trace of anger on his face disappeared . He placed her at the table and sat down, and said in a deep voice, “This is almost the same!”
Yu Linglong smiled helplessly, it was not easy, but she finally got the master .
Lord Xu untied a purse from his waist, handed it to Yu Linglong, and said, “This thing will be kept next to your body, so please remember it . ”
Yu Linglong received it and asked in surprise, “What is this?”
Lord Xu took out the same things in his purse and explained them to her: “These are just in case . This is a dagger . Although it is a bit smaller than the previous one, it is very sharp and suitable for personal carrying . This is for seeking help . If you are in danger, just open the lid . It will emit red fireworks . If the nearby guards see it, they will come to the rescue . This is sleeping incense, this is Mongolian sweat medicine, these are pieces of silver…”
Since the two of them were together, he rarely talked so much, but Yu Linglong didn’t feel bored at all . Seeing the little things in her purse, she was moved .
It was really hard for him to be so careful, and even remember these little things and prepare properly for her . It seemed that the last time she was taken away, it really shocked him so much that he would arrange so many self-defense weapons for her . She knew that he was not a careful person, but every time it involved her, he would always take it to heart and treat it with the most serious att.i.tude .
Without noticing Yu Linglong’s eyes, Lord Xu put back the contents in the purse, tied it on her waist, and sighed, “I hope you never need these . ”
Yu Linglong put her hand on her purse and said softly: “Don’t worry . I will protect myself and never make you worry about me . ”
She knew that this was not only the self-defense equipment he prepared for her but also his heart .
This little purse was tied to her just like his heart was .
From then on, she was no longer her own, and her every move, every word, and deed was in his heart .
He clasped his hands together and stared affectionately at her . Without saying a word, she understood him, and he also understood her . The so-called interlinking feelings was the situation at this moment .
After a long time, a cautious voice sounded outside the door: “Prince, princess, supper is ready . ”
Lord Xu raised his hand, rubbed her head fondly, and said softly, “Aren’t you hungry? Let’s eat something first and talk later . ”
Yu Linglong nodded, and said, “Come in . ”
The maids filed in and put eight dishes and two soups on the table, and then quietly retreated .
Lord Xu first gave Yu Linglong a chopstick dish before asking, “Where have you been and why did you dress like this?”
Yu Linglong didn’t intend to hide from Lord Xu, so she said truthfully: “I went to Baihua Lane . ”
The chopsticks in Lord Xu’s hand stopped . He looked at her suspiciously, apparently about to ask her what she did there .
Yu Linglong recounted the matter from the beginning, and when he heard that she had opened a gambling shop and planned to do other business, Lord Xu smiled and said, “If you like it, just do it . ”
Of course he didn’t care about the success of these shops, he just liked watching his little woman do what made her happy, so of course he wouldn’t stop her .
It didn’t matter what gambling house or business she runs, as long as she liked it .
From knowing her, he knew her temperament and how she did whatever she wanted . She never cared about other people’s eyes or opinions . She acted rashly and was never afraid . This was what made her special and the reason why he admired her .
Loving her meant giving her freedom instead of tying her wings, covering her eyes, and confining her mind . He wanted her to be herself, not a woman named Princess Xu .
Knowing that he would not object, Yu Linglong smiled and said, “I want you to do me a favor . ”
Lord Xu raised his eyebrows and said, “Tell me . ”
Yu Linglong spoke through her plan, and the more Lord Xu listened, the more serious his expression became .
She bought a mountain and bought slaves . He didn’t think much about it at first, but after hearing her plan, he also felt that it was indeed a good idea .
Although he had the nine battalions and twelve guards in his hand, this was not his direct force after all . The prince had his own army . Unless he really wanted to rebel, Lord Xu did not have sufficient reason to mobilize the nine battalions and twelve guards to fight against the prince’s pro-army .
Although Yu Linglong’s method would not be effective in the short term, it was a direct force she had cultivated after all . Even if the emperor changed his mind in the future and withdrew his forces from him, he would not become a lonely person, and he would even be able to protect himself .
Even if he didn’t need these people, these well-trained people can become Yu Linglong’s people to help her do things and protect her .
Lord Xu thought for a moment, then nodded and promised: “Okay . You need to find martial arts masters to train the slaves . Leave this to me . I have a few suitable candidates in mind . We can let them enter the mansion in a few days, and you will personally select them . ”
Yu Linglong smiled happily . The most difficult problem was solved so easily .
Buying mountains and buying slaves was all you needed to have money, but finding a qualified martial artist was not a problem that money could solve .
After the meal, the maid took away the food . Xuan Cao steeped top-quality Lushan White Mist Tea and served it . Lord Xu and Yu Linglong were talking while drinking tea .
After chatting a bit, Yu Linglong remembered what happened during the day and said, “Husband, do you remember Feng Sihuai?”
Hearing this familiar name, Lord Xu’s face sank: “Of course I remember, why?”
Of course he will not forget this name, that is the brave kid who dared to molest Yu Linglong . If it weren’t for the special situation last time, he really wanted to clean up Feng Sihuai .
Seeing his obviously savory expression, Yu Linglong couldn’t help laughing . She drank tea while slowly telling Lord Xu about the Feng family .
Feng Sihuai molested Yu Linglong but was beaten up, and later asked Lady Feng to trouble Yu Linglong, and later Minister Feng and General Yu found faults . Lord Xu knew about it, and Yu Linglong pa.s.sed that by and told him of the next thing .
From the time she discovered that Yu Qianliu was bought by someone and wanted to lead her into the game, she talked about how later Yu Qianliu froze to death at the gate of the Feng mansion, and then when General Yu and Feng Sihuai confronted each other in court, Feng Sihuai was beaten with a board . Later, Minister Feng found a reason to take him away . Until the end of the story of the Feng family and Yu family’s rivalry, Yu Linglong’s tone was flat, but the more he heard, the thicker his eyebrows frowned .
This Feng Sihuai was so courageous, he even dared to provoke revenge again and again . If his woman was smart and could escape a trap, he could hardly think of the consequences of him trying to trap her .
The more Lord Xu listened, the angrier he became, and he couldn’t help but bang on the table: “This dog, let’s see how I can deal with him!”
Yu Linglong smiled and grabbed Lord Xu, with a delicate little face with a proud expression, and whispered: “You don’t need to take action . I have set the trap, we just have to wait for him to jump in . ”
How could this kind of small shrimp be used by Lord Xu? It would be more than enough to clean him up by herself .
Her intelligent eyes blinked, and she slowly said, “It’s just that if I want to put the Feng family back together, I still need my husband’s help…”
