Chapter 53: Discussing the Princess on Wanli Building

  The inexplicable beating on the seventh floor of Wanli Building has ended. Four women, two fainted and two shivering with fear. Qin Lei also didn't have the enthusiasm to continue beating them. He smiled at Wen Mingren: "Brother's hands are not light or heavy, Brother Wen should quickly go find a doctor." Wen Mingren forced a smile: "Your Highness is magnanimous, Mingren is grateful from the heart, thank you." Then he hastily went downstairs to call his subordinates.

  The commotion in the house was so great that the Wanli Building, which claimed to be fearless, actually turned a blind eye, and it can be seen that Wen San Gongzi's status has also reached a rare level.

  Qin Lei let Xiao Pangzi sit down, looked at his wound and smiled: "The injury is not serious, mainly because you have too much blood and energy, it's good to bleed a little."

  Xiao Pangzi saw Qin Lei skillfully bandaging him and sneered, "Are you used to fighting? How come your technique is so skilled, and you even carry wound medicine with you?"

  Qin Lei smiled and said: "Fought frequently in Qi State, first time taking action after returning."

  At this time, several people came over, carried the young masters and ladies on their backs, and sent them out. Master Wen San never appeared again.

  Qin Lei called over a waiter and ordered him to set up another table of wine. The waiter saw that these two young masters dared to bully even the prime minister's sons and daughters, so he didn't know what kind of iron-clad background they had. He quietly took away the wine table and reopened one without mentioning the reservation.

  The Wanli Building was quiet again. Qin Lei got up and opened the window, and a refreshing breeze blew in. The sky was pure and transparent, with an extremely broad view. Almost half of the city fell into his line of sight.

  Gazing up at the vast sky of Chu.

  Qin Lei let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to spit out all the unpleasantness that had been pent up in his heart for days.

  Xiao Pangzi also stood beside him, gazing at the picturesque Zhongdu, murmuring: "No wonder those old men like to come here in broad daylight. It really feels great."

  Qin Lei looked at him sideways and coldly said: "Three questions, I hope you can answer for me. I don't want to be used as a gun without knowing what's going on."

  Xiao Pangzi also knew he was being a bit excessive, and smiled apologetically: "Your Highness, didn't we used to have a grudge back then? But now it's different, aren't we brothers now? Go ahead and ask whatever you want."

  Qin Lei smiled and patted his shoulder, saying in a low voice, "Let's talk about what happened today first."

  The little fatty nodded and smiled slyly: "Actually, I was originally bringing people to find these people to bully today, but unexpectedly ran into you and beat my people up."

  Qin Lei laughed and said: "So you're going to seek revenge. I thought you'd done so many bad things that you wouldn't dare go out without bringing a few dozen bodyguards."

  The little fatty's face turned slightly stiff, and he laughed: "How is that possible? I'm a good citizen."

  Qin Lei smiled and knew he had said enough, so he didn't dwell on it anymore, gesturing for him to continue speaking.

  Little Fatty continued: "At the time, you pulled me out to drink, and I put this matter aside. Who knew that in the dark there was a destined appointment? As soon as I entered the Wanli Building, I saw that those people's underlings were drinking in the outer hall. I thought of teasing you, letting those people beat you up, and then telling them your identity, haha." As he spoke, Little Fatty burst out laughing again, and his wounded mouth twitched, making a very comical expression.

  Qin Lei looked at the pitiful-looking Xiao Pang and asked in surprise, "Then why did you change your mind later? At that time, you could have hidden behind me and let those four women beat me up?"

  The little fatty let out a wry smile: "Wasn't it your move downstairs that subdued me? Honestly, your demeanor is much stronger than your second brother's. I'm convinced."

  These aristocratic sons like to pretend to be generous, but they never want to lose out. However, when Little Fatty saw Qin Lei letting him win a small round without making a fuss, he regained the face he lost on the street. Taking a step back can make the world vast and wide, but there are few people who understand this principle at a young age.

  But if Qin Lei had lowered his voice and yielded, he would have been looked down upon by Xiao Pangzi. But Qin Lei didn't say anything, nor did he do anything, and yet he dissolved the awkwardness between them without any fuss, without losing face. This magnanimity moved Xiao Pangzi. It also made Xiao Pangzi feel ashamed of himself for withstanding the attack of four crazy women.

  At this time, the dishes were all served, and Qin Lei and Xiao Pangzi took their seats. This time, Xiao Pangzi waited for Qin Lei to sit down before sitting in the deputy position, which was vastly different from his previous attitude of deliberately competing with him at every turn.

  Qin Lei poured himself a glass of wine, then picked up Xiao Pangzi's cup and filled it to the brim. He smiled and scolded him: "You don't have to be like this, I know you're not afraid of me, so why look for trouble?"

  Saying that, he lightly clinked glasses with him and downed it in one gulp.

  The mellow wine entered his throat, and the comfortable Qin Lei couldn't help but exclaim: "Refreshing!" This was still the first time he had drunk since getting drunk that day. Even the Crown Prince's welcome banquet for him was postponed due to his physical condition, and later it was cancelled altogether.

  Xiao Pangzi also "zhiru" a sound drank down. Chomping his mouth said: "This southern Chu's porcelain cup looks good, but it's too small, drinking is not satisfying." After finishing, he shouted towards the door: "Little two, change to a large goblet."

  The servant outside came in and changed the large cups for the two of them. Qin Lei frowned and said, "You're injured and still want to drink excessively?"

  "Our old Li family has always used wine as a medicine for injuries, this is an ancestral secret technique."

  Qin Lei just advised, but Xiao Pangzi didn't listen, and he didn't say much either. After eating a few dishes, Qin Lei said: "I've observed the women of Great Qin, although they're more open-minded than those from Qi State, I've never seen such... fierce... women like today. What kind of style are these women?"

  Xiao Pangzi took a sip of wine and looked at Qin Lei with an odd expression, saying: "Speaking of this matter, you're also involved."

  Qin Lei was taken aback and asked: "What do you mean by this?"

  The little fatty sneered: "Do you know who is the mastermind behind these women? It's your sister - Princess Heyang."

  Qin Lei let out an "ah" and his face was full of disbelief.

  Xiao Pangzi saw Qin Lei rarely show this expression, and he smiled: "There is another secret in this matter. The Princess of Heyang originally liked Zhao Chengxi, the champion of martial arts at that time and now the Protector General. At first, Your Majesty also tacitly approved it. But for some reason, suddenly married Princess Heyang to Xu Zaiwen, the only son of Duke Su, and at that time, Princess Heyang was almost tied up to become a relative."

  Qin Lei was very interested in this story of the old emperor beating the mandarin ducks, and he smiled as he sipped his wine, listening with relish.

  There are good listeners, there is a good talker. Xiao Pangzi also said excitedly: "Do you think these two can get together?" Qin Lei immediately shook his head and looked disappointed.

  Xiao Pangzi slapped the table and sighed, "After your sister's wedding night, she didn't let Xu Zaiwen enter the house. Xu Zaiwen had no choice but to secretly raise a small one outside."

  At this point, the two of them clinked their glasses together in a toast to the poor Brother Xu.
