In the bustling and bustling market, the shouts of hawkers can be seen everywhere, forming a lively scene.
"Miss, wait for me!"
Xiaolan chased the figure in front of her who was moving in the crowd from time to time, and saw that the figure in front finally stopped in front of a stall selling jade ornaments. The little boy was secretly approaching the lady, and she hurriedly sounded a warning.
"Miss, be careful!"
Long Qianqi held the jade pendant in both hands and compared the color, but there was a scream from the maid behind her. She put down the jade pendant she was playing with in puzzlement, and was about to turn around, but a sudden impact behind her caused her body to lose focus. Steady, the whole person fell down in front of the stall.
"What bastard dares to bump into Miss Ben!"
Long Qianqi screamed and looked back and cursed, but couldn't find the bastard who hit her.
"Miss, are you okay? Let's chase, that kid stole your purse!"
Xiaolan hurried forward to help her up, and after making sure she was all right, she took her hand, and the two of them chased after her, shouting non-stop along the way:
"Don't run away thief!"
"The man in front stops the thief!"
The two chased and shouted all the way, and came to a secluded alley. Unexpectedly, the little boy who stole their purse was waiting for them in the alley. Beside him were a few thirteen or fourteen-year-olds. The young man, whose clothes were also shabby and exuded a peculiar smell from time to time, was slowly gathering over to surround them.
"Stinky boy, don't hurry up and return my purse!"
Long Qianqi ignored their battle, and scolded the little boy who stole her purse.
"Miss… "
Xiao Lan grabbed the lady's sleeve. These people seem to have bad intentions, and they are trapped in this alley again. Whether they can leave safely is a problem. The young lady is still in the mood to manage the money bag.
"You two stinky bitches, don't hand over all your valuables, otherwise don't blame me for selling you to a brothel."
Standing beside the little boy, it was obvious that these teenagers were taking the lead, looking at the two with malicious intent.
"Bold, you know this county—"
Long Qianqi's savage temper was at the same time, ignoring Xiaolan's warnings and wanting to teach them a lesson.
"You all stole our money, so there's nothing of value. If you dare to mess around, I'll call for help."
Xiaolan begged her own county master with her eyes to stop angering them. She really had a hard life. The princess ran away from home, and she was the one who suffered the most; if the princess lost a hair, she wouldn't have to go back alive.
"Stop chattering! Don't blame us for being rude if you don't hand it over obediently."
The leading boy's words fell, and several boys were about to start.
"Help!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Xiaolan used her body to protect her master and cried out for help.
"Stop screaming, this is my territory, no one will care about this kind of lifeless business."
The leading boy sneered at the corners of his mouth, seeming to appreciate the confusion between the two.
"Is that so? What if I want to get involved in such a lifeless business?"
Suddenly, a clear voice sounded, and everyone followed the sound to search, and they saw a handsome man dressed in a crescent white brocade lying on the eaves at some point; Well, look down at the people below.
As soon as several teenagers saw him, they gasped, and all of them turned pale, and immediately dispersed.
"Don't try to run!"
The man stood up and fell down gracefully, his sword-wielding hand blocking in front of the boy who took the lead and the little boy he was holding at the right time.
"Brother Dongfang..." The little boy lowered his head with a guilty conscience when he saw him.
"Zhang Zhen, Zhang Sheng, what did you two brothers promised me two months ago? Do you really like free prison meals so much?"
Dongfang Jie glanced at the two of them sternly, and his eyes finally fell on the stubborn face of the young Zhang Zhen.
Two months ago, she passed by here and found out that the two brothers had formed a party or stole or robbed, and they were playing the same scene as now: after she taught them a hard lesson, she knew that the two brothers were paying for the medical expenses of their seriously ill mother. She did not hesitate to do illegal things. In addition, she had suffered from human affection, and her character had become extreme. Therefore, before she left, in addition to asking the doctor to see a doctor for their mother, she also left silver taels. After getting the guarantee of the two brothers After he promised not to commit crimes again, he left with peace of mind. Unexpectedly, two months later, she would encounter the same scene again.
"Zhang Zhen, answer me soon!" Dongfang Jie shouted.
"Mother is dead."
Zhang Zhen said indifferently, a trace of grief flashed across his eyes. He also didn't want to disappoint the divine arresting Dongfangjie he admired, but as soon as his mother passed away, the two brothers were helpless. In order to survive, he could only bring his younger brother to commit the crime again.
"Brother Dongfang, don't blame brother, those people keep calling us beggars and beat us."
Zhang Sheng's face was full of grievances, and he couldn't help crying to the big brother he admired.
Hearing this, Dongfang Jie's handsome face felt distressed. She didn't expect things to turn out like this. The two brothers were young and lost all their support. If she didn't help them, it was foreseeable that in the future, the two brothers would be bound to a vicious path that could not be turned back.
"Can you trust me?"
Dongfang Jie bent in front of the two brothers and held their hands, already planning to settle them in his heart.
"Believe it!" said the brothers without hesitation, in unison.
In the eyes of the two brothers, only Dongfang Jie is the only person in the world who is truly kind to them.
"Fine, then come with me."
Dongfang Jie didn't talk nonsense, and led the two brothers out of the alley, without looking at Long Qianqi's master and servant from beginning to end.
"Xiao Lan, I didn't expect to meet Dongfang Jie here, let's follow!"
Long Qianqi's eyes lit up! She sneaked out this time, in addition to traveling in the mountains and water, she just wanted to see Dongfang Jie again. Ever since he rescued her in the palace that night, his figure has been stuck in her mind, thinking of his charming graceful demeanor made her cheeks blushed, and hurriedly followed.
"Your Majesty, wait for me!"
Before Xiao Lan could react from her words, she hurried to catch up with her master as she walked away.
＊＊＊Exclusive production＊＊＊bbs.＊＊＊
Dragon Phoenix House is one of the industries of Dongfang House. There are 50 branches all over the country. The annual surplus of each restaurant is very considerable. It can be called the most profitable business under Dongfang House.
Dongfangjie brought the Zhang brothers to the Longfeng Building in Gangling City. Since it was meal time, it was not difficult to see how good the business was when seeing the long queue of people across the street.
"Brother Dongfang, why did you bring us here?"
There was longing in Zhang Sheng's eyes. This Longfenglou is the largest restaurant in Gangling City. I heard that the various dishes, cakes, wine, tea, and service in it are all top-notch. Of course, the price is definitely not cheap, and it is definitely not for people like them. up.
"Are you two hungry? Would you like to go in for a meal?"
Dongfang Jie looked at the coveted faces of the two brothers, and in addition to feeling distressed, he was even more determined to help them.
The two brothers nodded their heads like garlic, making Dongfang Jie amused.
Dongfang Jie did not join the queue, but walked directly into the restaurant, but he was stopped by a small-eyed young man.
"This guest, I'm sorry, but please queue up in order."
"Sunrise in the east, do good in the world, only I am in the east."
Dongfangjie casually recited a slogan. This slogan was thought up by the eldest brother. The purpose is to make the people of the Dongfang family, no matter where they are, not to forget their ancestors. However, for her, this slogan is quite convenient for eating and drinking for free.
Xiao Er's face changed greatly in an instant, and he turned to look at him with excitement.
"Dare to ask which of the four masters?"
"Under Dongfangjie."
"Fourth Young Master, please come with me."
Xiao Er politely led the three to the second floor. Along the way, many people were deeply curious about Xiao Er's respectful attitude and looked at the three more.
Xiao Er took them to a table leaning against the railing by the window, with a big smile on his face and a very courteous tone.
"Fourth Young Master, please sit here for a while. Do you have anything you want to eat? I'll ask someone to prepare it right away."
"Bring up the best food here, some pastries and a pot of tea and wine."
Dongfang Jie smiled at the excited faces of the two brothers, and said casually.
"Yes. Fourth Young Master, please wait a moment, the food and drink will be here soon."
As soon as Xiao Er left, Zhang Zhen couldn't hide his excitement, and couldn't wait to ask:
"Brother Dongfang, are you really their fourth young master?"
He had only heard the title of Jade-faced God Catching Dongfangjie, but he never knew that he was related to Longfenglou. When he saw it today, he was really surprised.
"That's right. Don't call me Dongfang brother in the future, just call me fourth brother."
It also sounds more pleasing to the ear. Pingkong has two more little brothers, but she doesn't mind at all. She is the youngest in the family and has been "cared for" by her three older brothers for many years. Now that she has two younger brothers, she is happy that she can be dispatched by two more people.
"Is it really possible?"
The two brothers' eyes lit up and asked in unison, never dreaming that there would be such an opportunity.
"Of course, don't call someone soon."
Dongfang Jie laughed. A feeling of being watched made her eyes scan the entire second floor without a trace, and her eyes unexpectedly slammed into a pair of black pupils that looked deeply.
It was a table away from her, also by the window, and there were two men with different looks: the most striking of the two was the man in a blue brocade robe, with a handsome and splendid look. His face and brows contained an aura that was not angry and mighty. Even if he tried his best to hide his brilliance, a discerning person could still see the extraordinary identity of this person.
What a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet him here, but it's better to pretend that I didn't recognize his identity, and it's easier.
"Fourth Brother!"
The two brothers shouted in unison with excitement, so loud that the entire second floor could be heard.
"be good."
Dongfang Jie smiled and placed the heads of the two in his hands. The feeling of staring still exists, making her frown slightly.
Steeply, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the stairwell, attracting everyone's attention; then a slender figure appeared, followed by Xiao Er who was holding dishes in both hands, and saw him rush to Dongfangjie's table with a tone of voice. Slightly excited:
"Fourth Young Master, I am Wang Qin, the shopkeeper of this shop. I didn't know the Fourth Young Master was coming. If there is a place where the reception was not well received, please forgive the Fourth Young Master!"
"Come on, don't be so nervous. You came just in time. I want to put these two brothers here to help. Is there any problem?"
Dongfangjie said straight to the point. This is also the main purpose of her coming here. I believe that it is definitely better for the two brothers to stay here than to wander outside.
"No problem." Wang Qin agreed, suddenly remembering something, and said urgently:
"Fourth Young Master, the Eldest Young Master issued a notice to the shopkeepers of each Longfeng Building ten days ago. The notice states that no matter which branch sees Fourth Young Master, you must be reminded that you must return to Dongfang Mansion on the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise the First Young Master will I will personally go out and invite you back.”
He was also surprised when he got the notice. What did the fourth young master do to make the eldest young master go out in person? And the fourth young master is now in front of him, even if he is very curious, he still dare not ask more.
"I know."
The corners of Dongfangjie's mouth twitched slightly. Does the eldest brother need to remind her so much? Count him cruel! Deliberately not making her feel better.
"The fourth young master, please take your time. I have already instructed the kitchen to prepare the dishes that the fourth young master wants. If the fourth young master has no other orders, then I will go to work."
Wang Qin secretly observed that the fourth young master's face became very ugly after hearing his words, which made him even more curious about what was going on.
"It's alright, go and get busy."
Dongfang Jie waved his hand to chase people away, indicating that the two brothers should use it first, but now she has lost her appetite.
It seems that this time she wants to play stupid and mess around, but she is really reluctant to let the life that is now free and easy is coming to an end.
"What a coincidence. Dongfang Jie, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Suddenly, a thick voice sounded in front of Dongfang Jie, who was absent-minded.
Dongfang Jie looked at the tall man in front of him in amazement, and now he can't even pretend he didn't see it.
"Wang... Young Master Long, what a coincidence."
She got up in a hurry, Junmei's face was slightly stiff, she realized that the restaurant was full of dragons and snakes, and quickly changed her words.
"It's a coincidence. Do you mind if I sit here?"
The voice fell, the robe was raised, and the tall and straight body fell directly into the empty seat beside her.
Seeing this, even if Dongfang Jie was reluctant in his heart, he still kept a charming smile that was enough to fascinate all the women.
"Master Long, are you here to play? It's quite elegant, come here for dinner?"
"Playing? I don't have that free time. Qian Qi ran away from home. As an older brother, I can't ignore her."
Long Haotian stared at him with deep black eyes, which made his already beautiful face even better because of the smile on his face; he noticed that there were already many women on the second floor looking at him obsessively, even men. Also with a stunning look, this Dongfang Jie is really a disaster.
"What! Jun... Miss Long ran away from home, so is there anyone following her next to her?"
Dongfang Jie exclaimed. This pampered princess is really bold.
"There is only one maid to accompany her."
"If I see Miss Long below, I will contact you. I don't know where Young Master Long is staying?"
"If there is news, you should go to Yanyun Mansion. You should be familiar with that place."
Long Haotian picked up the wine glass he had used, poured it for himself, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Young Master Long really likes to joke, how do you know where the Yanyun Hotel is?"
Dongfang Jie's handsome face remained calm and said with a smile.
"Yes?"
Long Haotian played with the empty wine glass in his hand, his black eyes stared at him with a half-smile, a lazy smile on his lips.
"Then I'll remind you again. Luoxia Peak is ten miles to the south. You should remember it this time."
"I'll remember it next time. If there is news, I will report back."
The two of you said a word to me, and the dark tide was surging, and even the two brothers sitting opposite could feel the strange atmosphere.
"I still have something to do, so I'll take a step first. I'll be waiting for your driver at Yanyun Hotel."
Long Haotian put down the wine glass in his hand, and at the same time he got up, he tapped his slender shoulder with implicit strength, and after seeing his slightly changed face, he left with a big laugh.
After confirming that Long Haotian's figure disappeared at the corner of the stairs, Dongfang Jie's face paled and he let out a breath.
What a Long Haotian! When she left, she even tested her internal strength. If it wasn't for her martial arts skills, she would have suffered internal injuries!
"Fourth brother, are you all right? Who is that Young Master Long?"
Seeing his strangeness, the two brothers got up with concern, came to him, and asked urgently in unison.
"I'm fine. You guys can continue to eat." Pushing the two brothers back to their seats, Dongfang Jie's face changed slightly and said lightly, "He is King Jing Long Haotian. This man is unfathomable and troublesome. Strange, I recently How can I always provoke him? It seems that I have to go to the temple to burn incense and worship, to avoid bad luck."
Dongfang Jie sighed helplessly, and at the end, it turned into a self-talk. Being entangled by this King Jing, who even today's saints have to respect three points, in addition to not having a good life, she has to seek more blessings from herself.
"Fourth brother, do you really want our brothers to stay here?"
The two brothers looked around the restaurant while eating, their voices a little worried and mixed with excitement.
"That's right. I'll tell Shopkeeper Wang to take good care of you. It's better for you to stay here and help, rather than wandering around. I'll visit you from time to time."
He patted the heads of the two brothers, his eyes were full of love. It's not bad to have two more little brothers for nothing.
"Okay, let's listen to fourth brother, we won't let you down. Fourth brother, don't forget to visit us often."
"no problem."
Dongfang Jie promised with a smile, and after seeing the tall and straight body downstairs, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.
Her hunch was always accurate. It seems that in the future, it is better to avoid hitting Long Haotian as much as possible.
＊＊＊Exclusive production＊＊＊bbs.＊＊＊
Xilai Inn, Room 2, Dizi, come quickly.
Dongfang Jie looked at the note in her hand. When she just left the restaurant, shopkeeper Wang said that a girl asked her to give it to her. Who the hell asked her out? It seems that the only way to find out is to go there in person.
"This gentleman in white, please stay."
Hearing the sound, Dongfang Jie looked around, and found that the man who stopped her was an old fortune-telling stall under a toon tree. There was also a flying flag next to the stall with the words "The iron mouth is broken". Daewoo.
"Is something wrong, old man? I don't believe in fortune-telling."
After Dongfang Jie looked at it, he put his arms around his chest, and his posture was lazy. Even if he was repulsed from the bottom of his heart, Junmei's face still maintained her usual elegant smile, which made people not feel the impatience in her heart.
"Please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Young Master, according to your appearance, you were born rich, famous in your early years, and your life has been full of peach blossoms, but..."
Halfway through the old man's words, he frowned and stared straight at his face.
"But what?"
Here comes the main event. It seemed that the fortune-teller was planning to steal her money. Dongfangjie was full of demeanor and asked cooperatively.
"Young master, you'd better go home as soon as possible within two months. The son's mansion is a rare house that accumulates good deeds, and it will help you avoid a catastrophe. "
The old gentleman was dressed in a large gray robe, which seemed to be somewhat immortal. He rubbed the silver-white beard on his chin with one hand, and sighed solemnly.
"Thank you. But I don't believe that."
Dongfangjie put down the broken silver, turned around and wanted to leave. After listening to the fortune teller's words, she had to wonder if this person was sent by her elder brother to persuade her to go back.
"Master, if you don't want to go back, there is another way. If you go to the south, you will have your noble person and you will be able to help you through this disaster. If you don't believe this old man, I'm afraid you will be doomed. "
The old man spoke earnestly, and shouted straight ahead to the figure in white shirt who had not stopped for a while and had already walked away.
South? Dongfang Jiejian frowned slightly. This fortune teller is really amazing, how can she pick on her pain points! She has never believed what the warlock said, and she certainly wouldn't take it to heart.
Seeing that the Xilai Inn was in front of him, Dongfang Jie stepped into the inn and went directly to the counter to ask.
"Treasurer, I'm looking for your guests in Room No. 2."
"Young master is surnamed Dongfang?" the shopkeeper asked with certainty.
"That's right."
"Young master, please come with me, the two girls have been waiting for a long time."
The shopkeeper took the lead, motioned him to follow, and stepped up to the second floor.
two? Dongfang Jie is even more suspicious now. Who is looking for her? The woman who will find her, she should have settled it before, who is it
Just when she still couldn't guess who it was, the shopkeeper took her to a wing.
"Master Dongfang, this is the room. If it's okay, I'll go first."
As soon as the shopkeeper left, Dongfang Jie immediately reached out and knocked on the door. Not long after, the two wooden doors opened from the inside, and a delicate and familiar girl walked out.
When the visitor saw him, he was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in exclamation, and hurriedly called inside happily:
"Master, Dongfang Jie is here!"
No way
Hearing this, Dongfang Jie's handsome face instantly collapsed. After seeing the beautiful woman walking out from inside, he suddenly felt a dark cloud cover his head, and he was dumbfounded and stood at the door.
"Dongfangjie, come in quickly."
Long Qianqi's beautiful face was full of shyness, and her little daughter's coquettish attitude was revealed in her behavior, and she whispered softly.
Dongfang Jie had no choice but to step into the room, and Xiao Lan quickly closed the wooden door.
"Master, I just met the prince an hour ago, and the prince is looking for you everywhere."
What luck has she had recently, how could she be entangled by this pair of brothers and sisters? I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
"I know. That's why I asked you to meet here."
Long Qianqi raised a smug smile. She was originally going to follow Dongfang Jie into the Longfeng Building, but she was politely stopped by the little 20 who didn't have long eyes, and asked her to wait in line! Just when she walked out of the restaurant angrily, she saw the figure of the big brother on the second floor with sharp eyes. She was so frightened on the spot that she quickly flashed and didn't dare to stay for a moment.
"I don't know what the princess is looking for here?"
"Dongfangjie, it's rare for me to sneak out. I want you to accompany me to travel around the mountains and waters."
Long Qianqi took the initiative to walk in front of him, raised a slightly shy face, and looked at him with bright eyes.
Seeing her obsessed eyes, like most women's eyes, Dongfang Jie could only sigh in his heart, regretting for the first time that he should not disguise himself as a man. To put the words of a senior brother cursing her, her romantic debts will kill her sooner or later.
"The county lord, I'm afraid it won't work. I am entangled in official business and my whereabouts are always uncertain.
"I don't care! I just want to follow you, and I won't affect your case handling. If you don't agree, I will tell my elder brother that you bullied me. I will see if you can afford the crime of bullying the county master. "
Long Qianqi has a stubborn temperament and can't tolerate rejection. Anyway, she is entangled with Dongfang Jie.
Dongfang Jie smiled bitterly, and he could already foresee that his future would not be peaceful, so he asked with some resignation:
"If you agree, when does the county master plan to return to the palace?"
"Of course I'll wait until I've had enough."
Seeing his promise, Long Qianqi smiled happily and pulled on his sleeve.
"One month. If the county master promises to return to the palace in a month, then you must agree to accompany the county master to play around."
Dongfang Jie offered conditions, but she did not intend to accompany this delicate princess for too long.
"Dongfangjie, you dare to threaten me?!"
Long Qianqi widened his eyes, stared at him angrily, and threw off his sleeves with his little hands. He is really brave, she asked him to accompany her by name, and he dared not know the good or the bad!
"The lord of the county is serious. It is also for the lord of the county. If the lord of the county does not agree, go to the Yanyun Hotel to visit the prince immediately. I believe that the prince is a reasonable person."
Dongfang Jie took the initiative to pick a seat and sat down, poured a cup of tea and sipped it, not believing that she couldn't cure this charming princess.
"you you you… "
Seeing his leisurely appearance, Long Qianqi completely ignored her anger and walked back and forth angrily; although he couldn't hold his breath, but thinking of the main purpose of this trip, Mei glared at him and compromised in a frustrated tone.
"Okay, I promise."
"Okay, then, let's start from this Gangling City. Is the county owner interested in visiting the Guanyin Temple here? The scenery near the Guanyin Temple is very beautiful, and it is worth seeing."
Dongfang Jie looked at her pouting with a funny look, and suddenly felt that although this county owner was charming, he was also somewhat cute.
"I'm going! We're going right away!"
Long Qianqi's eyes lit up, he took his hand and was about to go out. She only has one month, she has to have enough fun, and she has someone she likes to accompany her, so she has to cherish this time.
Dongfang Jie let her drag him away, and there was always a smile on his handsome face. Perhaps this county owner is not as difficult as she imagined.
