Quickly wear the bad woman and get married and have a baby

Chapter 178 The Romantic Concubine and the Emperor 04

Without the maid to pay her, Yan Jiu was not at all panicked. She raised her chin slightly, as proud as a proud peacock, with a cunning glint in her peach blossom eyes.

"Did you pay?"

Chu Fengyan was slightly stunned, then took out his wallet and said, "I was just about to give it to you."

Just as he was taking out the money, Yan Jiu snatched the golden fried chicken lantern from his hand and ran away.

The movements were smooth and fluid, without any hesitation.

Chu Fengyan was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

A hint of surprise and anger flashed in his eyes, and he ran after Yan Jiu.

"Hey, wait a minute..."

The owner of the lantern shop quickly stopped Chu Fengyan and wouldn't let him leave.

His face was filled with anger, as he accused Chu Fengyan of running away without paying.

"Sir, you haven't paid yet. You two are both dressed respectably. You wouldn't even want to refuse to pay for the lanterns, would you?"

The lantern seller thought Yan Jiu and the young man were playing a double act for him and were deliberately trying to steal his lantern.

Chu Fengyan was very unhappy after hearing what his boss said. He frowned and took out a tael of silver and threw it into his boss's hand.

"I don't even know that woman. She's the one who's refusing to pay. I'll pay for the lanterns first. Once I catch the thief, she'll give me the rest of the money."

The lantern shop owner watched Chu Fengyan's retreating figure, bit the silver in his hand, and a hint of disdain appeared on his face. "Tsk, it's just a few ounces of silver, and you're asking me for change. You wanted to shirk your debt, but I haven't even reported you to the police yet, and now you're acting like a big shot after I've caught you."

"Recently, there are more and more young people who want to get something for nothing. Sigh, the world is really going downhill."

Yan Jiu didn't walk fast. There were people all around her, and the bustling crowd provided her with excellent cover.

Just follow the flow of people.

As she walked, she admired the fried chicken lantern in her hand, feeling very proud.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Fengyan could no longer see Yan Jiu.

He was furious, his heart burning with rage. "How dare you, little thief, steal my lantern? Don't think you can escape from my grasp."

He jumped onto the tree and looked down from the height, his eyes sharp as an eagle's.

Soon, he saw a very familiar pink figure on the bridge not far away.

Her back was out of tune with the people around her, as if she was a fairy from another world.

Chu Fengyan immediately flew over using his Qinggong skills, his figure like an agile swallow, drawing a graceful arc in the air.

The Egg System warned, "My dear, Chu Fengyan is chasing us."

Yan Jiu was dissatisfied: "Isn't it just a lantern? What's wrong with buying me one? I've never seen such a stingy man."

Egg System: "Why would anyone buy a lantern for a woman like you whom I don't even know? You're really funny."

Yan Jiu: "I'm not funny, I'm good-looking, I'm beautiful."

Egg System: "No matter how pretty you are, you can't just steal other people's lanterns. That's like being a bandit."

Yan Jiu: "This is the lantern I chose first. He wanted to steal my lantern. If he dares to steal my things, he will pay the price."

The Egg System: "It's a price of one or two ounces of silver. It seems that you have become much kinder recently. At least you won't take people's lives at every turn."

"Stop mocking me. Chu Fengyan may be a bit annoying, but his crime isn't punishable by death..."

The more Yan Jiu looked at the fried chicken lantern, the more she disliked it. She heard a whistling sound of wind behind her, and she turned around abruptly and threw the lantern out.

The lantern hit Chu Fengyan's face accurately, and Chu Fengyan, who was flying very smoothly in the air, fell directly from mid-air.

"Hahahaha, you're so useless. I'll give the lantern back to you. I don't want it anymore."

Yan Jiu laughed at Chu Fengyan who fell to the ground, then turned around and ran before he could get up.

Chu Fengyan lay on the ground with his teeth bared.

"Just wait for me, I won't let you go."

Yan Jiu deftly moved around one person after another and suddenly bumped into something.

She subconsciously tried to steady herself, but found herself bumping into a man's arms.

Xiao Yi didn't like women getting close to him, and was about to push Yan Jiu away, but the moment his hand touched Yan Jiu, an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in his heart.

He paused and stared into Yan Jiu's eyes.

Those eyes were as clear as water, making him feel inexplicably familiar.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly and tried hard to search his memory for a similar image to these eyes, but he still couldn't remember where he had seen them.

The secret guards around saw this scene and looked at them in surprise.

They couldn't believe that their usually cold and ruthless master would allow a woman to lean on his arms.

Yan Jiu discovered that she had met the emperor's mistress and quickly tried to break free from Xiao Yi's arms.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Xiao Yi didn't say anything, but just continued to stare at her.

He was filled with doubts. Who was this woman? Why did she feel so familiar to him?

At this moment, Chu Fengyan also caught up and saw Yan Jiu in Xiao Yi's arms. His face instantly turned ugly.

"Shameless thief, let my cousin go." Chu Fengyan shouted.

Yan Jiu originally wanted to push Xiao Yi away, but immediately stopped when he heard Chu Fengyan's words.

Xiao Yi seemed not to hear Chu Fengyan's words and was still immersed in his own thoughts.

Yan Jiu secretly glanced at Chu Fengyan and smiled with ill intent.

She grabbed Xiao Yi's sleeve and squeezed out a few non-existent tears from her eyes: "Master, please save me, this man dressed like a peacock has been following me, I'm so scared."

"Cousin, don't believe this female liar. She just stole my lantern." Chu Fengyan was about to step forward but was stopped by Xiao Yi's guards.

Xiao Yi finally came back to his senses. He looked at Yan Jiu, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yi asked.

Yan Jiu bit her lip, her round eyes were watery.

"I am General Weiyuan's nineteenth concubine. I came out with my maid to see the lanterns. I didn't want to be followed by this lecher who wanted to do something indecent to me, so I panicked and ran into your arms. I hope you won't blame me."

Xiao Yi felt uncomfortable. She was General Weiyuan's nineteenth wife? How could that old man be worthy of her?

Although Yan Jiu's face was covered, Xiao Yi subconsciously felt that she must be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Chu Fengyan jumped up and down: "Hey, you thief, who are you calling a lecher? It was you who stole my lantern without paying, and you even threw it on my head, nearly burning my hair. I'm telling you, no matter whose concubine you are, I'm not done with you today."

When Xiaolu heard the noise, she immediately squeezed through the crowd, walked to Yan Jiu, and pulled her out of Xiao Yi's arms.

He knelt on the ground, hugged Yan Jiu's thighs and cried miserably: "Oh my master... You made me look so hard, which damn bastard dared to bully you? We will go back to the general's mansion and tell General Weiyuan to chop off that bastard's head..."

Xiao Yi looked at his empty chest, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

"Chu Fengyan, what's going on?"

Chu Fengyan ran over in panic. He called Xiao Yi cousin, so of course he knew Xiao Yi's true identity.

But now they were outside the palace, and Xiao Yi was wearing casual clothes, so it was obvious that he was traveling incognito.

Chu Fengyan couldn't be so stupid as to kneel on the ground and shout "Long live the emperor", so he could only bow respectfully to Xiao Yi: "Cousin, don't listen to their nonsense. I didn't do anything to the maid's master. In fact, I am the victim."

Xiao Yi's attention was always on Yan Jiu, and he didn't listen to Chu Fengyan's explanation at all: "Really?"

"Of course, cousin, I've seen all kinds of women. How could I possibly be interested in someone else's concubine?"

Chu Fengyan pulled up his hair, revealing a burnt patch on his forehead: "Cousin, look, a small part of my hair was burned by the lantern thrown by this woman."

Then he pointed at Xiaolu angrily and said, "Hey, you dead girl, stop talking nonsense. Are you two playing a double act here?

You still have the nerve to call me a lecher? I think you two are liars. How could General Weiyuan have such a rude concubine like your master? "
