The Male Wife

Chapter 243 2 Princes

The second prince of Chu secretly came to the secret pavilion of Wuwu Pavilion to meet Jiang Linzhi, the purpose was to talk about Chu Baijiao, and it soon reached Chu Xun's ears.

When Chu Xun made up his mind to put Chu Baijiao in Jiang Linzhi's Inorganic Pavilion, he guessed the trouble this matter would bring to them, so Chu Xun was not surprised, but he was not surprised by Chen Fei who came to report the letter. , Said: "Thank you, Your Excellency. I thank the Pavilion Master for going back for Benhou. I also hope that the Pavilion Master can help Benhou hide this matter for a period of time. Don't spread it, and don't start a confrontation with the people in the palace. Also, Bai Pavilion Master Lao has to worry about the delicate matter."

Chu Xun’s words are very strange. It seems that he knows that if he wants to send Chu Baijiao to the Inorganic Pavilion to hide, there will be a bloodbath, but he is stubborn and refuses to send Chu Baijiao to the palace, or to be taken care of by the eldest prince. , I only want to put Chu Baijiao in Wuwu Pavilion wholeheartedly. Among them, what Chu Xun wants to make is really unclear for a while.

Chen Fei passed Chu Xun's words to Jiang Linzhi's ears, and Jiang Linzhi seemed to have predicted Chu Xun's attitude long ago, so after listening to Chen Fei's words, he didn't take this matter to heart.

On the other hand, Fade Chen ran over and talked with Chen Shu for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that he would obey Jiang Linzhi and Pei Cheng's decision.

Five days later, before Chu Xun was about to go out, he really brought a large bag of luggage and dozens of servants from the Baihou Mansion. Then came to Jiang Linzhi's house.

Chu Baijiao is wearing a pink skirt and a newly bought flower ornament on her head. She looks very cute. Chu Baijiao is young and can't understand many things in the palace now, but she is not really stupid. Chu Baijiao could tell that when her brother entered the palace these few days, his expression was frowning.

Chu Baijiao lay in Chu Xun's arms and said, "Brother, why is he unhappy?"

"Brother is not unhappy." Chu Xun felt sorry for Chu Baijiao's sensitivity. Originally, he could raise his only younger sister beautifully so that she would not be exposed to those dirty things in the palace prematurely. Time lives in Yan Zhi's house, don't worry about being disgusted, it's not a palace, and they are not evil people."

Chu Baijiao leaned on Chu Xun's arms with a face of dependence, "I know that my little brother and my brother Yanzhi are not bad-hearted people. But, how long are you going, big brother, and when will you come to pick me up?"

"Brother just went out to get some things for others, and he will be back soon. When he comes back, it may be the Chinese New Year soon." The carriage stopped, and Chu Xun took Chu Baijiao's hand and got out of the carriage.

The servants and stewards of the Jiang residence came out and helped to move out the luggage belonging to Chu Baijiao from several carriages, and then moved them in.

The dexterous servants of the Jiang residence made Baihou's servants stand aside with awkward expressions, unable to intervene at all.

The butler of Jiang's house took a step forward. The butler whose temples were just stained with hoarfrost was not old. He even walked faster than young people. Glancing at the servants of Master Hou's mansion that Chu Xun brought over, with an apologetic smile on his face, "Baihou, these servants are..."

"It's specially brought here to serve Bai Jiao." Chu Xun looked at Steward Jiang in front of him, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. The last time he came to Jiang Zhai to look for Jiang Linzhi and Pei Cheng, Steward Jiang Yi happened to be out on business. So Chu Xun couldn't see him, but when he saw him now, Chu Xun recognized Steward Jiang in front of him.

Isn't the Steward Jiang in front of him the last small pavilion master of the establishment pavilion of Wuwu Pavilion?

Chu Xun had dealt with Wuwu Pavilion a few years ago, because at that time the things the eldest prince asked him to do could not be handed over to the people in the palace, and Chu Xun's methods at that time were immature, and his handling of things was not as meticulous as it is now, so he Went to Wuwu Pavilion.So Chu Xun met the Steward Jiang in front of him a few times, that is, the small pavilion master of the Inorganic Pavilion.

"It's been a long time since I saw you. I thought you were living in seclusion in the mountains." Chu Xun looked quite emotional.

Steward Jiang was startled, knowing that Chu Xun had recognized him, he waved his hand, and said with a quick smile, "I've been busy all my life, and now I'm suddenly free, I'm flustered. The pavilion master can give this old slave a meal, this is also the old slave." an honor."

After finishing speaking, Steward Jiang didn't wait for Chu Xun's answer, and said directly: "Baihou, if you really plan to borrow the little princess, I still hope that you don't bring so many servants."

While talking, Steward Jiang led Chu Xun and Chu Baijiao into the mansion, behind him were servants of the Jiang residence who were carrying luggage, and the servants who originally belonged to Baihou's mansion were treated as if they were watching thieves look.

Chu Xun was surprised by the scene in front of him.

Chu Xun was puzzled, "Why?"

"Madam is pregnant with Liujia now, and she was almost killed a while ago. The manpower in the mansion has changed several batches, and the ones left now are basically selected from thousands of picks from the dark pavilions and training camps of the inorganic pavilions. This person." Jiang Steward's words were full of helplessness, but more of them were hatred for the outside world who repeatedly hurt his wife, "If Baihou really wants his wife and the pavilion master to protect the little princess, then don't Bring trouble to Wuwu Pavilion."

The people in Chu Xun's mansion were basically given by the palace, and their sincerity could not be guaranteed, so after being reminded by Jiang Steward, Chu Xun finally came to his senses. He turned around and glanced vaguely at the not far behind The people who followed said, "Thank you for the reminder, butler."

Housekeeper Jiang knew that Chu Xun had listened to his words, nodded in satisfaction, then led Chu Xun to the back of the main hall, stood up, and said, "The pavilion master and his wife are inside, Lord Hou please first."

Chu Xun led Chu Baijiao into the hall first, followed by Jiang Steward.

As soon as Chu Baijiao saw Pei Cheng, she smiled, "Little brother."

Good-looking people always get better treatment.

Pei Cheng was startled, then smiled and said, "Why did you come so early?"

He really thought that Chu Xun would come here with his servants and luggage, and that after school was over in the evening, Chu Baijiao would come back with Jiang Yanzhi.It turned out that Chu Baijiao came here with Chu Xun now.

Jiang Linzhi glanced at Chu Xun, only said hello, and then whispered a few words to Jiang Steward.

Chu Xun was not in a hurry, and because he learned that the second prince had come to Wuwu Pavilion to find Jiang Linzhi a few days ago, he said: "I thank the pavilion master for the matter of the second prince a few days ago. For a while, Bai Jiao is staying in the mansion, and I hope the pavilion master can... Pei Cheng, I hope you can accept this gift."

As he said that, Chu Xun took out a wooden box as if by magic, and put it on the table.

Seeing this, An Ren quickly picked up the box that his master Chu Xun had brought out, walked quickly to Pei Cheng, put down the wooden box respectfully, then stepped back and stood behind Chu Xun.

Pei Cheng didn't move the wooden box in front of him, but raised his eyes, looked at Chu Xun, and said, "You give Bai Jiao to me, this is your trust in us. Besides, it's too much for you to give this gift now." It's too early."

Jiang Linzhi casually glanced at the wooden box. The box looked familiar. He had seen it in the auction house before. At that time, the box contained a rare piece of jade from the Western Regions. It was a beautiful and clear piece of jade, but Yu Jiang Linzhi said it was useless, so he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

Whoever imagined it, now saw this piece of jade in Chu Xun's hand.

This piece of jade has not been carved, so it is considered precious, and it will not look awkward if it is sent out like this.

Hearing Pei Cheng's refusal, Chu Xun smiled, "It's not all because of the righteous help between you and the pavilion master this time. This jade was bought at the auction last time, and it's not very expensive. If you can accept it... …fine."

Pei Cheng thought for a while, but still refused: "If it's really a thank you gift for helping, then this gift is indeed given too early, you should take it back first."

After speaking, Pei Cheng said: "This matter is not entirely up to me. After you come back, if you want to thank you, just treat everyone to a meal."

"So, let's put that thing here with you first." It's unreasonable to take back something that was sent out, not to mention that Chu Xun didn't really intend to take it back.

Pei Cheng had no choice but to give it to Chu Xun, but Chu Xun refused to accept it. He didn't know what to do with it.

Jiang Linzhi couldn't see Pei Cheng's embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "Put it away first, so that he can feel at ease."

With just one sentence, Pei Cheng calmed down instantly. He nodded, and handed the wooden box to Dong Lai beside him, signaling him to take this thing away first.

A smile appeared on the corner of Chu Xun's mouth, and the look on his face looked much better.

At least there is no sorrow and worry when I first entered the door.

the other side.

Palace backyard.

The second prince of Chu held the sunspot in his hand, and when he heard the eunuch beside him say that Chu Xun really sent Chu Baijiao to the Wuji Pavilion today, he became angry, "Could it be that Chu Xun thought we would harm his sister? A five-year-old girl, even if she really wanted to do it, she wouldn't do it now."

"There are only these two people left in the Baihou Mansion. How could he be careless?" the counselor said indifferently, "Your Highness, don't worry too much. Chu Xun is on the side of the eldest prince, but Chu Xun didn't ask for help when he went out." The eldest prince helped take care of the little princess, so he must have some complaints about the eldest prince."

Prince Chu's expression finally looked a little better, "At first I thought the boss had some power, but now it seems that this is not the case. Chu Xun refuses to trust the boss, but he wants to trust a neutral Inorganic Pavilion, sneer .”

The counselor reassured Prince Chu, "Your Highness, don't worry, the matter has only just begun, and there is still plenty of time for who will be the final winner."

The second prince of Chu nodded.
