The Marquis Is Innocent

Chapter 57:

Chapter 57:

When Wei Yan returned from Wei Manor, Zhu Quan had already packed traveling clothes for him.

Wei Yans three concubines waited in the house.

Usually, when he went out, sometimes he was alone, and sometimes took one person with him. This morning, when he was leaving, the three of them were well-dressed and hoping to be chosen by him to go with him. A moment later, they heard the sound of footsteps. The three women flash their eyes together to look over. There is no Wei Yan figure. Zhu Quan came out from the inside, holding a long box, stopped in front of the three women said: The Lord said, from now on, you do not need to serve him. You three take the gold in this box and share it yourselves, and leave today.

Zhu Quan placed the box on the ground and opened the lid. Inside was a box full of gold bars, brilliantly dazzling.

The three women were shocked and looked at each other when they learned they would be dismissed. They hurriedly knelt and pleaded. The one who was taken last year sobbed, I wonder where did I do wrong for you to treat me so heartlessly?

Zhu Ji and Wang Ji are from the music school and used to be excellent music prostitutes, and they were brought back by Wei Yan. Serving him so far, they knew he was a gloomy person and not a gentleman. Although they were usually polite, they were afraid of him. Seeing he does not even show his face and listen to Zhu Quans tone, their dismissal is a foregone conclusion. They wiped their tears, took the gold bar, and went to their rooms to pack their clothes. After discussing it, they decided to go back to the music school and resume their old business. The good thing is the two women are young and beautiful. Wei Yan gave a generous amount of money. Even if they couldnt meet a good man to marry, they didnt have to worry about their lifetime of food and clothing.

Zhu Ji and Wang Ji left, leaving a girl named Lan Yun still standing in the same place.

Three years ago, she came to Wei Yans side. At that time, Wei Yan fights a war against the Xiongnu. After Xiongnu left, Wei Yan rescued a group of women, and Lan Yun was among them. She complains about her parents death and begs Wei Yan to take her. Wei Yan saw she was beautiful and took her that night. Lan Yun was not only beautiful but also understood the minds of men. She was good in bed.

These past three years, the women around Wei Yan changing, but Lan Yun has always been able to stay.

Zhu Quan shook his head when he saw her blank expression, still standing there, and refused to go.

A few moments later, Wei Yan came out of the room in a hurry, went to the door, and took the horses reins from the attendant. He got on the horse. Lan Yun darted out from behind, stopped in front of Wei Yan, and said in tears: I have served you for three years, and I have not been negligent. Why did you change your heart overnight and abandon me?

Wei Yan looked at Zhu Quan.

Zhu Quan looked embarrassed and explained: I have already conveyed your intention, but she refused to leave. I cant help it.

Wei Yan said, You can give her more gold and silk. If she has no place to go, you find a family to marry her off. He turned on his horse. A team of people has gone.

Lan Yun stared blankly at Wei Yan and his partys distant back, her tears flowing.

Wei Shao personally sent Wei Yan out of the northern city gate, more than 10 miles out, and finally stopped. They dismounted and stood at the side of the road to say goodbye.

Grandmother will attend the conference to see our Youzhou childrens bravery. You must attend.

Wei Yan said: Second brother, do not worry. I will come after finishing the matter in Dai County.

Wei Shao nodded his head. When Wei Yan saw he was about to say something, he smiled and said, Does the second brother have anything to say?

Wei Shao hesitated, turned his head to look behind him, saw that his followers were far away, and said in a low voice: There is nothing else. I want to ask you, what do most women prefer?

Wei Yan was stunned and understood in a flash.

He knew Wei Shao was not familiar with womens affairs. He suddenly asked about this, must be wanted to please the Qiao girl.

Wei Shao explained as if nothing had happened: We have been married for some time. I saw she served my grandmother and mother very well, so I thought of giving her something in return. I saw she did not seem to care about money and wealth. But apart from money, I cant think of anything else to give, so I asked for your advice.

Wei Yan suppressed a hundred turns in his heart, pondered, and said: Sister-in-law is gentle. Her heart is naturally compassionate. You might as well send her an animal cub. I think it should be able to win her joy.

Wei Shao enlightened and thanked.

Wei Yan smiled. The two of them said goodbye to each other. Wei Shao watched Wei Yan and his party go north and turned his horse back to the city.

After Qiao Ci was caught back by Xiao Qiao on the spot, these few days, his mind focused on the training ground. After a few days, he returned in the evening and entered Xiao Qiaos courtyard. Xiao Qiao was in the room when she heard her brother calling for her. He seemed excited. She went out and saw Qiao Ci squatting on the ground, surrounded by a few maids, chattering in a low voice as if they were watching something. She walked over.

Sister, look!

Qiao Ci picked up something on the ground and darted toward her.

Xiao Qiao saw he was holding a baby cat in his arms. Round head, small short ears, with two pupils color, one blue and one amber, as if embedded with two jewels. The whole body is furry like a meatball. Qiao Ci held it in his arms. The cat constantly pawed with the pink paws, emitting a slight mew mew mew, very lovable.

Xiao Qiao was surprised: Where did it come from?

Qiao Ci said, Brother-in-law brought it. He said this thing was just born and left on the road. Brother-in-law happened to meet it, and it was so pitiful that he asked me to bring it to sister to raise.

As soon as Xiao Qiao heard it, she knew it was a lie. The breed of this cat should come from Persia, which is very rare in Central China nowadays. Only Western merchants brought it to Luoyang and sold it at a high price to noble women as a pet. The cat is rare and precious and looking at the appearance of this cat, it could not be obtained without a lot of money. Where did he get the luck and pick one up while walking down the road?

Its just that the cat is cute. Seeing Qiao Ci handing it over to her, Xiao Qiao couldnt help but take it and hold it in her arms. When the servants heard the sound, they gathered around to see it. When they heard Marquis give it, they praised it and were busy looking for a cloth to make a nest for it and pile up sand. The courtyard of the west house was lively and quiet when it was dark.

The cat was scared and hid in the house for a while but gradually came out, and Xiao Qiao played with it.

Wei Shao did not come back for dinner. Xiao Qiao ate and bathed by herself when the sky was getting dark.

It was a long summer night. Xiao Qiao lit the candle and sat down to continue copying the scriptures. After copying only a few lines, she heard the sound of footsteps outside and turned around to see Wei Shao had returned. When she was about to put down her pen and get up to greet him, Wei Shao arrived behind her and took a look at it, praising her: Excellent writing indeed!

Xiao Qiao smiled, put down the pen, got up, and turned to him. Wei Shao suddenly remembered and looked around: The cat I picked up today, do you like it?

Xiao Qiao saw his serious emphasis on the pick up, could not help but feel amused but held back her face, only umm.

Wei Shao said he wanted to see it. Xiao Qiao took him to the corner where the cats nest was placed. The cat was curled up in the nest, sleeping.

As soon as Wei Shao entered, he immediately sneezed. When he reached the cats nest, he stared at the cat for a moment and reached out a hand, touched the cats back, and nodded: Its good that you like it. When Im not home, it will accompany you to play

Before he finished the words, he sneezed again.

Xiao Qiao could see Wei Shao was probably allergic. He was still oblivious, sneezing twice in a row, feeling confused, and rubbing his nose.

Xiao Qiao was busy saying: I know. Dont touch it. Hurry up and go!

Wei Shao was pushed out by her. Xiao Qiao asked the servant to come and serve him in the bath. After thinking about it, she moves the cats nest to Chun Niangs house. She just returned to her room when she heard Wei Shaos voice coming from the bathroom, calling her loudly to go in as if something big had happened.

Xiao Qiao was startled, hurried to the bathroom, and lifted the curtain: What is it, husband?

Wei Shao shouted, Itchy!

Xiao Qiao froze and walked in closer to have a look. The skin of his arms and shoulders had some red spots.

Wei Shao couldnt stop yelling about the itch. Xiao Qiao hurriedly stopped him from scratching and told him to come out and put on his clothes first. She asked Chun Niang for an ointment to stop the itch and let him lie down.

Wei Shao honestly lay down. Watch her rub the ointment on him.

Xiao Qiao sat on the side and smeared the ointment while saying: You and the cat clashed. We cant keep it at home. Return it tomorrow where you bought it if you can -

Wei Shao shook his head and said austerely: As long as you like it, it doesnt matter if I die of itching!

Xiao Qiao mentally rolled her eyes at him and hummed, I dont have that much face to keep a cat and make the Marquis restless every day

Xiao Qiao did not finish her sentence. Wei Shao pulled her hand and she flung herself on his chest. Wei Shao grabbed her, rolled over, and pressed her to the pillow.

Wei Shao attached to her ear and whispered, Can we do it tonight? I havent touched you for several nights!

How could Xiao Qiao not understand what he meant? Her heart remained stuffed with a lump, but her mouth couldnt say no. Furthermore, since she was already clean, she thought even if she said no, Wei Shao would not listen to her anymore.

Xiao Qiao smoothly wiped the remnants of the ointment on her finger onto his face, humming: Marquiss body is not itchy anymore?

Her finger scraped across his cheek. His mind was swirling, and ignoring the smell of medicine on her finger, he opened his mouth and bit down, licking her finger muddled, Its still itchy. Give me a good touch so I can get well

This night, Xiao Qiao was tossed back and forth by Wei Shao for a long time, and her waist was almost broken.

She did not know previously, but once Wei Shao was released, he said shameless words, shameless requests, and said without changing his face. Not only did he say it himself but he also forced her to say it to him.

That last time, she cried, but he still wouldnt let her go. He excitedly forced her to answer Do you like it when I do this to you?

She had to answer his stupid question.

Xiao Qiao did not want to talk to him at all and did not have the strength to speak again. It would be better to throw him a pile of things that can cover his mouth.

But she didnt have the strength. If she didnt go along, he would stay up until dawn.

Like Xiao Qiao cried.

Like what?

Like husband touch me like this

Next time, will you let me touch you?

Yes

What if you dont let me?

I dont know-

You have to do everything I say! Im your husband!

Mmmmmm- cried Xiao Qiao.

Thanks to the physical and psychological satisfaction Marquis Wei received, he finally had the kindness to close the scene. Before Xiao Qiao asleep with her eyes closed, a vague thought popped up in her mind.

When she first met him in Xindu, she often watched him go in and out during the day on the Tantai Teracce and felt he was busy as a dog.

Now, its her turn to be tired as a dog at night.

This kind of day, how to get to the end ah!
