Chu Wang Fei

by Ning er

  Hearing his cold and desolated enunciation, Yun Qian Meng gradually removed her attention from the beautiful scenery below,. Her gaze continued to stare at the scenery of the long street, yet her ears stood up , with full intention to hear what he was going to say next.

  “That Bei Qi Princess had already stayed in Western Chu for a couple of months, benxiang had never invited her over to Chu Xiang Fu to entertain her, benxiang wasn’t fulfilling my obligation! Meng’er, don’t you think your husband should invite Princess Ling’er over to Wang Fu?” While speaking, Chu Fei Yang immediately leaned closer to Yun Qian Meng, his both eyes were staring fixedly on Yun Qian Meng’s facial expression.

  But Yun Qian Meng’s both hands were supporting on the edge of the window. The forefinger on her right hand was coiling around the handkerchief in her hand. Having heard Chu Fei Yang asking her, she suddenly felt funny, after which with a shallow smile she replied “Lord husband, since you are the owner of Xiang Fu, anything you want to do, naturally doesn’t need my permission. Lord husband may just do it according to what his heart desires.”

  Be that as it may, but Yun Qian Meng’s both eyes never looked at Chu Fei Yang from the beginning to the end. Those red lips hooked up a smiling expression that contained a faint coldness, yet it made Chu Fei Yang’s heart tremble. He was about to examine himself, but the knocking sound echoed from outside the door, soon after they saw Xi Lin leading Rong Yun He as they walked in.

  “Chu Xiang and furen are in Tian Fu Lou, we are truly honored by your presence!” Seeing Yun Qian Meng with an excellent complexion as she turned her head around, Rong Yun He could not help but smile.

  “Didn’t expect you to be here today!” Unexpectedly meeting an old friend, Yun Qian Meng was naturally delighted.

  Previously when they were at Chu Xiang Fu with all the people present, it was inappropriate for her to have a long conversation with Rong Yun He. But right now Chu Fei Yang was the only person beside her. Furthermore, with his head currently full of that Qi Ling’er, Yun Qian Meng would naturally seek for other things, or else would it not be too boring?

  After all, in order to redeem her own husband’s heart, she would never make a terrible scene. It would be better for her to make some self-improvement, making him realize her potential capabilities.

  “Few days ago there were really a lot of things that I needed to attend to. Yesterday when I got home, I had sorted out the expenses and procedures during this period of time. You are here at right time, let us make a verification on the budget money from expenses during the previous period!” But ever since Rong Yun He came in, Chu Fei Yang’s face abruptly turned gloomy. Seeing Rong Yun He even conjuring a few thick account books from his sleeves, his heart became increasingly unhappy. Suddenly he pulled Yun Qian Meng’s hands, gesturing that he wanted to stand up and leave.

  But upon hearing concerns about the account books, Yun Qian Meng immediately stood and proceeded to the right side of the private room together with Rong Yun He. The two of them sat down beside the small side table face to face, fervently discussing about the development of things during the recent period of time.

  Looking at Rong Yun He who came by in such a ‘coincidence’, Chu Fei Yang’s fingers pinched the teacup in his hand with exerted effort. After which he lifted his head and drank a cup. He then poured a cup of it for himself once again.

  “With your computation, I would naturally feel at ease with it! But, as for the aspect regarding medical expertise, we must wait for Physician Xiao Nie to come back and make the decision. After all, we do not know anything about it, so as to avoid making mistakes, not only wasting the time, but it will also cost us money!” Flipping over the pages to inspect all the recent computations, Yun Qian Meng spoke wearing a simple smile.

  And Rong Yun He was smiling back at her containing the smile in his eyes. From time to time he would nod his head and speak a few statements. The atmosphere between the two of them was unexplainably harmonious.

  “But we don’t know when Physician Xiao Nie will be able to come back” The matter had progressed quite smoothly, and yet only Physician Xiao Nie was missing. Rong Yun He thought for a while, then shifting his gaze towards Chu Fei Yang who was sitting alone on the table and politely asked “Doex Xiang Ye know anything about it?”

  Chu Fei Yang was feeling gloomy, he was about to respond that he didn’t know, yet seeing Yun Qian Meng was earnestly looking at him, he laughed and said “Before the year ends, he might be able to come back! Serious damages had been inflicted on Luo City, perhaps he needs to remainfor a period of time.”

  While speaking, Chu Fei Yang put down the wine cup and stood up, approaching beside Yun Qian Meng, he pulled her to stand up and gently remarked “Meng’er, we have been out for half a day, you must return home to take your rest!”

  While speaking and not waiting for Yun Qian Meng to answer, Chu Fei Yang quickly instructed Xi Lin “Xi Lin, go downstairs to settle the bill!”

  Xi Lin was able to sense that slightly strange atmosphere inside the private room for a long time. This time hearing Chu Fei Yang’s instruction, he then immediately turned around wishing they could quickly depart from this quarrelsome place, so as avoid becoming the target of bombardment for Xiang Ye. But in a short moment after he turned around, he was being stopped by Rong Yun He “Wait a moment!”

  Hearing Rong Yun He speaks out, all of them looked at Rong Yun He in puzzlement to see him smile as he said “During your grand wedding, Yun He wasn’t able to give you any gifts. This time around, for Chen Wang to be able to retreat his troops from Rong residence, it was also because Xiang Ye had dealt with it from within. This meal, just consider it as Yun He’s treat for the both of you. Please do not decline it, Xiang Ye!”

  “It shouldn’t be this way, we were neither relative nor friend of Mister Rong, how can we receive such favor!” Chu Fei Yang resolutely declined Rong Yun He’s kind gesture. After which he signalled Xi Lin, allowing him to immediately settle the bill.

  And Yun Qian Meng deeply felt that this was really inappropriate, then she spoke “Opening your door for business, how could you exempt someone from paying the bill just because of the acquaintance? If you want to give a gift, then just give a dividend from the business then that will be enough!”

  While speaking, Yun Qian Meng laughed cunningly, that crafty look in her eyes had caused Rong Yun He’s gaze to be slightly startled. He then also laughed and said “Since that’s the case, then consider it done!”

  Yun Qian Meng had not expected Rong Yun He would simply agree to her request. For a moment her smile froze at the corner of her mouth. But Rong Yun He’s expression was quite sincere. Thinking that the Rong family seemed to not lack their own share of the profit, she nodded her head and accepted.

  “Meng’er, time is running late now, we must return back! We had already delayed Mister Rong’s time, don’t delay another person’s time for running his business.” Chu Fei Yang mentioning about ‘Mister Rong’ ‘other person’, seemed to have isolated him from the world that only belonged to the two of them together.

  Yun Qian Meng lifted her eyes. Seeing Chu Fei Yang’s eyes concealing a faint indication of jealousy, she gently laughed. Then facing Rong Yun He she nodded her head and along with Chu Fei Yang they walked out from Tian Fu Lou together as they took their seats inside the horse carriage.

  But before she could seat steadily, she was being pulled by Chu Fei Yang into his arms. Before she even started lifting her head to try and speak, her own lips were kissed by Chu Fei Yang. That powerful tongue entered her mouth forcefully and seemed to be besieging it. It was wandering around refusing to let go of every corner. She later saw him release her after having a little bit of satisfaction.

  “In the future just allow Steward Hong to take care of the discussion for the business. You don’t have to dedicate you own mind and body. I feel pity after watching you like that!” His thin lips slightly departed from Yun Qian Meng’s and spoke in a lowered voice. The remnants of
the fragrance of wine in his mouth assailed Yun Qian Meng’s nose and it made her to slightly wrinkled her brows. She lifted her hands while gently pressing his chest and resentfully protested “How can Steward Hong know anything about my intentions and opinions? Besides, if this matter is considered to be consuming the strength of my mind and body, then what else should I do?”

  After hearing Yun Qian Meng’s words, Chu Fei Yang knitted up his brows. This silly girl, actually did not understand anything about his painstaking efforts.

  But facing such vibrant pretty face, Chu Fei Yang could not manage to flare up his anger and could only curse Rong Yun He from head to toe. Then with a smile he said again “Since that’s the case, then I shall urge Steward Hong to stay by your side in the future to learn things from you. There will come a day, where he will be able to understand your intentions and opinions. Of course, Meng’er, you must tell me some of your opinions!”

  Watching Chu Fei Yang’s two-faced appearance, Yun Qian Meng hummed twice using her nose. After that she spoke in a bad mood “Then why don’t Xiang Ye tell his humble wife, in which way did you find Qi Ling’er attractive?”

  While speaking, two gentle arms wrapped around Chu Fei Yang’s neck. Her beautiful eyes contained sparkle of flames with enormous vitality yet he was still being repressed by Yun Qian Meng’s rationality. Which caused Chu Fei Yang to have a slight headache. But then again he quickly planted a few light kisses on her lips. After which he lifted his hands and softly kneaded her beautiful hair then smiled and said “There’s nothing attractive, husband was just merely making up a story. Even if she was the number one beauty in the world, she could not be compared to even a single strand of Meng’er’s hair!”

  Watching Chu Fei Yang as he express his goodwill, Yun Qian Meng laughed inwardly. Yet her face remained looking serious. She then softly snorted twice then ignored him,. But her head gently leaned on his neck while resting her eyes half closed.

  Chu Fei Yang seeing her like this, did not speak any further while both of his hands tightly wrapped around her waist, not allowing her to fall down or get hit.

  But, when the horse carriage halted by the gates of Chu Wang Fu and the two of them walked down from the horse carriage, they saw a familiar royal phoenix carriage stopping by the main gate of Chu Wang Fu.

  This time Xi Lin quickly went ahead, whispered a few statements beside Chu Fei Yang’s ears, seeing Chu Fei Yang’s eyes originally wearing a smile to immediately turn ice-cold.

  “Speaking of the devil, the devil has arrived!” looking at that luxurious and extremely familiar phoenix carriage, how can Yun Qian Meng not know that was Qi Ling’er’s phoenix carriage, then she made fun of him smiling as she remarked.

  “Since that is the case, then we shall return to Chu Xiang Fu now!” Seeing Yun Qian Meng having a teasing smile on her face, Chu Fei Yang also smiled.

  Before he finished talking, he saw the main gate of Chu Wang Fu being opened wide, Chu Wang walked out from it with a delighted face. After seeing Chu Fei Yang he winked at him, after which he approached beside Yun Qian Meng and spoke “Silly girl, where did you go today? Grandpa will be able to try to find you. Are you tired now, follow after grandpa as we return back to the house and take some rest!”

  But Chu Fei Yang was tightly embracing Yun Qian Meng, staring at Chu Wang with a face seemingly smiling yet with no real joy. Afterwards he spoke “You really know how to cause trouble!”

  “It seems that Chu Xiang is not pleased with our visit!” Quite unexpectedly, Qi Jing Yuan stepped out of that phoenix carriage, not far behind, Qi Ling’er followed.

  The two of them descended the phoenix carriage together and walked forward to approach Chu Fei Yang and the others.

  A few people turned around and looked, seeing Qi Jing Yuan was holding back the cold laugh in the corner of his mouth, his eyes radiating a gloomy look, and his entire body was being enveloped by a somber air, causing people to be intimidated at first glance, due to failing to understand why such gloomy and unfathomobale man existed in this world.

  At his side stood Qi Ling’er who was wearing a winter dress. The cuff of her collar was embedded with snow white sable fur, put together, it made Qi Ling’er’s jade white small face looked even more exquisite. That dark violet royal palace satin faintly exposed the peony flower that was embroidered using silver threads, swaying gently along with Qi Ling’er’s every step, causing the travellers on the road to halt their feet and take a second look, captivating people to have difficulty shifting their gazes.

  At this moment Qi Ling’er was wearing a smile on her face. Those crystal eyes indifferently swept across Chu Fei Yang’s calm yet cold handsome face, afterwards she looked at Yun Qian Meng, facing Yun Qian Meng as she slightly nodded her head.

  The moment when Qi Jing Yuan stepped out of the horse carriage by himself, those fierce looking eyes were closely staring at Chu Fei Yang, until they reached in front of the three persons, that’s the only time they changed their gazes towards Yun Qian Meng. Seeing Yun Qian Meng wearing a pink winter dress, making Yun Qian Meng, who rarely wore such dazzling dress, to look even more beautiful and lovely like a fresh honey peach, also during this time her body appeared to be fresh, clean and charming, causing Qi Jing Yuan, who had already met numerous beautiful women, to exclaim in admiration.

  And during the time when Qi Jing Yuan shifted his gaze towards Yun Qian Meng, Chu Fei Yang pulled Yun Qian Meng, using his body to block off Qi Jing Yuan’s annoying lookhe spoke nonchalantly, “Is there any important matter that permitted the Crown Prince and the princess to pay a visit? If it is a concern regarding the politics, may I request the Crown Prince to enter the Royal Court to report it to His Majesty. Benxiang is now taking a leave as a newlywed person. Benxiang really doesn’t like anybody to trouble furen!”

  He spoke very bluntly to avoid more contact with Qi Jing Yuan.

  When Qi Ling’er heard these words, the corner of her lips, which was initially wearing a shallow smile, slightly paused. Then she removed her gaze from Yun Qian Meng, then turned around and looked at Qi Jing Yuan’s figure from behind.

  And Qi Jing Yuan just remained emotionless. At first his face looked gloomy, but on the contrary when he heard Chu Fei Yang’s words, the corner of his mouth curved up into a smile, then afterwhich he spoke “Of course I came here because of Chu Xiang’s grand wedding!”

  After speaking, Qi Jing Yuan’s cold eyes looked around the entire surroundings, then he laughed coldly and continued, “Locking the door and refusing to see the visitors who came by to congratulate, could it be that this is the new method used by Chu wangfu to entertain its visitors? Although benguan knew that Chu wangye is greatly respected by Emperor Yu Qian, but one shouldn’t become arrogant because of this special favor. Keeping off all the visitors outside the gates of Chu wangfu, by doing this, isn’t it too unreasonable?”

  Chu Nan Shan listened as Qi Jing Yuan continuously tried to humiliate him. Qi Jing Yuan’s way of pressuring him with such humiliation made the upper area of his white brows slightly tremble. his face became tranquil and indifferent instantly, while pondering and feeling puzzled he said, “I’m already old, my mental alertness is obviously unlike the time when I was young, naturally I would close the door and decline to meet visitors! Or else if I stressed myself, wouldn’t it just outweigh my loses than gains! The Crown Prince is still young and robust, being fond of associating with other people, bearing a man’s young and vigorous behavior, that will be evidently the best, but being too excessively dashing, will be very likely to bring harm to the mind and the body!”

  Being tricked earlier by Chu Fei Yang, Chu Nan Shan’s heart was already feeling sullen. Being interrogated like this by Qi Jing Yuan had ignited the flame of anger in Chu Wang’s heart!

  Since he couldn’t offend Chu Fei Yang, then Qi Jin Yuan would do nicely!

  Seeing that Chu Nan Shan and Chu Fei Yang were both unwill
ing to let her and the Crown Prince to enter Chu wangfu, Qi Ling’er laughed as she walked forward from behind Qi Jing Yuan. She approached Yun Qian Meng, gently held Yun Qian Meng’s hands, smiled and said, “It’s been a long time since I last met Yun xiaojie! Oh, wrong, now Yun Xiaojie is already Chu furen! The recent grand wedding of Chu Xiang and his furen, we’ve received the news too late, as a result it had been delayed until to today that we are able to come to visit and congratulate, please don’t be concerned about it, furen and Chu Xiang!”

  Qi Ling’er was full of smiles, naturally Yun Qian Meng would not stretch out her hand to slap her face. Moreover this Qi Ling’er was the princess Northerni Qi, in addition to Rui Wang still being held captive in Qi Jing Yuan’s hands, regardless of the plans that Yu Qian Di might have had for this Bei Qi Princess, but in this current situation, such a bit of meager sensibilities must still be given to them as respect.

  Hence, Yun Qian Meng also put on a smile and said, “Thanks for your concern, Princess!”

  “There’s no need to be too courteous, Chu furen! Benguan and furen really get along well, that’s why benguan pleaded with brother Crown Prince to bring benguan here. It may be assumed that furen will not just ignore me, right?” While speaking, Qi Ling’er covered her mouth and started to laugh, but the corner of those smiling eyes did not forget to steal a glance towards Chu Fei Yang.

  Watching Qi Ling’er worming her way into being friend with Yun Qian Meng, Chu Fei Yang’s eyes contained a faint cold air. At first he had planned to bring Yun Qian Meng directly back to xiangfu, but this time seeing the corner of her mouth was wearing a smile, emitting some specks of light, after which he also followed suit and smiled before saying, “Then please proceed inside to have your seats, Crown Prince and Princess.”
