Chapter 405: Don't want to beat me up?
405 Don't you want to beat me up? Can't let Dongfang Yu send people from the army all the time to help? Even bringing a few people into the Lord's Court, they all have something to say, if Dongfang Yu sends a few soldiers to the Thousand Layers, then the palace is not sure what it will be like.
Besides, once you build decent farm tools, you don’t have to buy many servants, and it’s easier to manage.
"Looking for a blacksmith shop?"
However, when he heard Xia Beibei's words, Dongfang Yu raised his head in surprise from the pile of delicious food and looked at her.
"Didn't you tell Shiqiu and the others about this?"
"Shiqiu and the others have something to do. I think I can go there by myself if it's such a small matter." Xia Beibei said.
Isn't it just to get some farm tools, she is a big living person, can't she still do it?
How could she have thought that after walking around the street for a whole lap, she couldn't find a blacksmith shop. She couldn't help but wonder if there was a blacksmith shop on the outskirts of Tucheng.
"That's no wonder." Dongfang Yu nodded clearly.
"Why?" Xia Beibei asked in confusion.
Could it be that after looking for Shiqiu and the others, they could find a blacksmith shop? However, it is true that Shiqiu and the others are people who were born and raised in the wilderness, so they are not familiar with it.
"Bei'er, what kind of farm tools do you want to build? Tell Thirteen. It's more convenient to go to Yuancheng. In the wilderness, there are very few iron workers, and they are all official camps, mainly because they are not allowed to cut down trees at will." Dongfang Yu said.
"You are not allowed to cut down trees, and you can't use coal? It's better to use coal than firewood." Xia Beibei didn't understand.
Where did the iron tools used by ordinary people come from, did they all fall from the sky? Wait, Dongfang Yu just said that the official camp, that is to say, the ironware shops in the wild are all the official family, that is, the franchise of the Xun Wangfu?
In this world, there has long been coal, right? Isn't kerosene lamp something that every household may use?
"Bei Er, the coal mine is privately owned, but those who are going to be beheaded, whether it is coal or kerosene, must be owned by the official family." Dongfang Yu reminded her.
"Oh, no wonder." No wonder she couldn't find a shop that made iron, but there were shops selling iron tools.
"Then I will give Thirteen the blueprint tomorrow and let him go." She said.
"Well." Dongfang Yu nodded.
"By the way, on the street today, not only did I meet Hua Qiangu and the others, but also Dongfang Yan and a bunch of gangsters." Xia Beibei continued.
"Dongfang Yan?" Dongfang Yu raised his head in surprise, raised his eyebrows at her, Dongfang Yan is the prince, how could he hang out with the gangster?
Well, he thinks, the **** in Belle's mouth may be the sons and daughters of those aristocratic families?
"Did he mess with you?" he asked.
Without provoking Belle, Belle couldn't have called those sons and daughters of aristocratic families hooligans.
"It didn't offend me." Xia Beibei replied, raising his hand and adding a crispy shrimp to his bowl.
"That's good, he doesn't dare to provoke you." Dongfang Yu was relieved that he didn't provoke Belle. The few princes and princesses in the mansion were not people to provoke.
However, his Belle is not a good stubble either.
"He didn't mess with me, but he seems to mess with you." Xia Beibei said.
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Dongfang Yu looked at Xia Beibei in confusion, and didn't forget to put some vegetables in his mouth.
He didn't see the fourth brother today, how could he offend him?
"It doesn't seem to be, anyway... Dongfang, I heard that you have a missing fiancée?" Her eyebrows trembled, she muttered, and looked at Dongfang Yu seriously.
Although she wanted to not mind, but, not minding does not mean that she can pretend to know nothing, at least let Dongfang Yu know something in his heart, handle this matter well, and don't make her a difficult person in the future. .
Besides, Dongfang Yan is so secretly calculating that he is the eldest brother, is it really okay? When necessary, you have to fight back, right?
With a 'click' sound, the chopsticks in Dongfang Yu's hand fell to the table in fright, staring at Xia Beibei's black eyes, and suddenly became anxious.
"Belle, this... this you have to listen to my explanation... I... that is not..."
Xia Beibei blinked her beautiful eyes, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she almost laughed.
Although she is an independent new human being, her future husband will definitely have to marry her as a wife, but as the saying goes, she can't affect their present and future because of Dongfang Yu's past, right?
"Come on, drink some wine to overwhelm your shock, let's talk slowly, don't worry." She poured a glass of wine for him and said softly.
A few black lines slid across Dongfang Yu's forehead, and was frightened by Xia Beibei's attitude of not being surprised. Why was she able to deal with such a thing calmly, as if she wasn't even surprised at all?
Is it because Belle doesn't care enough about herself? Then he would have to work harder to bring down all those who tried to destroy their relationship.
However, he still made up his mind.
"Bei Er, the person that Dongfang Yan said does exist. This is the baby kiss that my father and mother agreed with me when I was six years old. It can be regarded as a marriage."
"Oh." Xia Beibei replied indifferently, looking at Dongfang Yu puzzled, "The family that can set up a baby relationship with Prince Xun's mansion is definitely not a small family, right? But according to Dongfang Yan, that person is missing. already?"
The daughter of a wealthy family, how could it be so easy to disappear? Are you kidding her?
"It's not a disappearance, she is the eldest princess of Tianyuan Mansion outside the Xuedu, the fifth princess Nangong Beier, just because she was born, the snow in June was regarded as an ominous omen. Later, King Jing invited a Taoist priest to come and meet the fifth princess. Fortune-telling, the hexagram is the reincarnation of the lone evil star, the father and the mother, the brother and the brother, and everyone in the family will be killed, which is a big bad omen." Dongfang Yu said to Xia Beibei seriously.
"On the day when the Taoist priest was divination for the five princesses, it happened that an old concubine in the palace of King Jing, who was strong and strong, died for no reason."
"Bullshit!" Xia Beibei curled the corners of her mouth and cursed.
"At this point, King Jing has no doubts about the hexagram, and wanted to secretly send someone to take the fifth princess out of the palace to kill. Fortunately, the princess was well prepared and ordered someone to take the fifth princess out of the palace to raise her, but, for some unknown reason, the princess sent From now on, there is no news of this person, and the fifth princess, Nangong Beier, does not know whether she is alive or dead."
These, he also listened to what his good brother Nangong Liqi said, as to whether that Nangong Beier was dead or alive, and what happened to the person under his name, no one knew.
"It's utterly dehumanizing, not even letting go of his own daughter!" Xia Beibei cursed bitterly, looking at Dongfang Yu.
"That old concubine who died must be a little person who has no status in Prince Jing's mansion, right?"
What concubine, she can conclude, but she is just a woman with no status beside the dead old King Jing. Such a person's life can make the princess notorious, which is really a good strategy.
"Bei Er, how did you know about this? Did you hear about it?" Dongfang Yu looked at her in surprise and asked.
He also knew little about the affairs of Prince Jing's mansion, he knew it all from Nangong Liqi's mouth, but Belle could tell that the old concubine was an irrelevant person.
"You still need to hear about it?" Xia Beibei threw him a white eye and pursed her red lips, "Needless to say, after this incident, the princess fell out of favor as if she was in a cold palace, right?"
"Yeah, not only the princess, but also the prince... that is, the eldest son Nangong Liqi, if not for the imperial concubine, he would have been deprived of the position of the prince long ago. Qi has been miserable." Dongfang Yu sighed.
He didn't know whether Nangong Bei'er was dead or alive, but he knew that his good brother Nangong Liqi was living a miserable life under the supervision of others.
"What destiny is a lonely star, only a stupid goose like you can believe it!" Xia Beibei snorted coldly.
"Bei Er, what do you mean by that?" Dongfang Yu was obviously stunned and looked at her in confusion.
"What do you think?" she asked him back.
"You mean...hush! No way?" Dongfang Yu suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Xia Beibei in disbelief.
"Why not, what kind of destiny is lonely? It's just a sharp blade that some people use to deal with their enemies." Xia Beibei said flatly.
This kind of thing is not uncommon, let alone a dignified palace, it is a common people's family, as long as there are three wives and four concubines, it is common.
"But June Feixue is real." Dongfang Yu shook his head.
"Flying Snow in June, who said it must be a big omen? Maybe it's a good omen?" Xia Beibei slightly curled the corner of her lips.
"Everything has two sides. Who can say that a snowstorm in June is bad, and a heavy snowfall on a hot summer day is not good?"
Dongfang Yu: "..."
For the first time, he knew that it turned out that June Feixue could understand it like this? Sure enough, after meeting Belle, his knowledge became wider and wider.
"No." Suddenly, Dongfang Yu's expression changed, and when he remembered what they were going to say, it seemed that this was not the case, "Bei Er, you have to believe me, the mother concubine has made an agreement with Princess Jing and the concubine, as long as Nangong Bei Er is full Fifteen hasn't found her yet, then break off the engagement with me."
"Yes." Xia Beibei nodded.
"Bei Er, whether I can find her or not, I won't marry her. You are the only concubine who can sit. You must believe me, don't be angry, okay?" Dongfang Yu saw that she was indifferent, I thought she was actually a little angry in her heart.
"Angry? Which eye did you see that I was angry?" Hearing this, Xia Beibei looked up and down at herself.
She's not angry, okay? Not at all. In terms of anger, she is also angry with Dongfang Yan, who is trying to sow discord, okay?
"Aren't you angry?" Dongfang Yu's face became strange, this time, it was his turn to be angry, right?
"Belle, don't you get angry when you hear that I have a fiancée, don't you want to beat me up?" Isn't this normal? It seems that he has been completely ignored by Belle?
Xia Beibei: "..."
Is this a masochistic paranoia? He had to make her angry and make her body so angry that he felt comfortable in his heart, didn't he?
"Dongfang, it's not that I'm not angry, I just feel that I should believe you as a person. If you don't tell me, you just think you can handle the marriage with your fingertips. Your mother and concubine gave me the family heirloom bracelet, don't you think? , should I still doubt your intentions for me?" She said to him softly.
Put himself in his position, maybe his lover has other women than him, but he doesn't react at all, so he will be angry?
So, she explained.
Hearing this, Dongfang Yu's tense body finally relaxed, he pulled Xia Beibei up from the seat, put it on his lap, and hugged him tightly.
"Belle, thank you."
"Thank you for what? You should thank Dongfang Yan, that's the most important thing." Xia Beibei reminded him.
You can't let those who don't know how to advance or retreat step on their heads and feel that they are very smart. This is not something they will do.
"Dongfangyan!" Hearing this name, Dongfang Yu's voice became extremely gloomy.
Belle just arrived in Tucheng, and he was right in Belle's ear, saying such a thing, it would be impossible for him to think it was not intentional, it was simply hateful.
Are you in such a hurry? However, this also shows that Dongfang Yan is just a person who can't achieve great things.
"There is only one Dongfang Yan, and whoever brings it out in this manor is a character full of tricks."
…
In a quiet yard, suddenly, there was a sound of broken porcelain from the study, followed by a man's scolding.
"Damn, I asked you to find out, and you found out about this? What's the use of this prince raising you rubbish?"
Dongfang Yan stood behind the desk in anger, looking at the guards in front of them who bowed their heads and didn't dare to say a word.
These are the people he raised, one or two, they are all useless, even a woman under Dongfang Yu's hands can't deal with them.
Originally wanted to find out who the man named Xia Jiuniang was, and why when he met him on the street in the morning, he clearly said that Dongfang Yu had a fiancée, but she didn't care at all.
Isn't it the woman Dongfang Yu likes, but has other uses?
But, what use can a little girl be? He thought about it, and there was only one possibility, and that was related to the three thousand acres of land that Dongfang Yu bought in the Thousand Layers.
But what can a little girl do? If it was a farming expert, it wouldn't be her turn to be a little girl, right? Just pulling someone out of the countryside would be a hundred times stronger than her!
But Dongfang Yu brought her back.
asked the guards to check the source of Xia Beibei, but these people are really useless and can't find anything.
"Fourth Prince, those people's mouths are too tight, the subordinates tried their best, but couldn't get anything useful out of their mouths, but the subordinates learned that the prince severely blamed Concubine Lian Ji today. Because Xia Jiuniang put three unfamiliar men in the Lord's Court." The guards are also innocent.
They are their masters on weekdays, and they are opposed to each other, and they have no deep friendship. How could they ask something out of the mouth of the guards of the Lord's Court?
