After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 258: Long-time Delight

"This is what the king should do. The general is defending his country and should be fully supported."

While everyone was toasting, Xu Yingying carefully went to the back, and then used her trump card to deal with the female ghost.

"Where did this ghost come from? Get out of the way now."

"Who are you? How dare you meddle in my business?"

The female ghost naturally became angry and embarrassed when faced with Xu Yingying's exorcism, and then prepared to attack Xu Yingying.

"stop."

Zhong Lin immediately appeared and protected Xu Yingying behind him, "I'll see how long you dare to be so arrogant with me here."

The female ghost was about to attack Xu Yingying when she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Who was crying and howling here? It turned out to be you."

When the female ghost saw that it was Zhong Lin, she immediately changed the direction of attack and attacked him, with a fierce look in her eyes.

"It turns out it's you bitch!"

Zhong Lin's heart was burning with anger. "I have been looking for you for a long time. Today, I finally found you without any effort."

"Since you came here today on your own initiative, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Zhong Lin's eyes were filled with anger, and he attacked without any hesitation, as if every move was fatal.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the female ghost was immediately scared to death under Zhong Lin's heavy attack.

"Zhong Lin, are you okay?"

Xu Yingying immediately went forward to check.

"It's okay. As long as I can get rid of this bitch, I'll be willing to die today."

The hatred in Zhong Lin's eyes had not disappeared. This was the first time Xu Yingying saw him so angry since she had subdued Zhong Lin.

Although she had many questions and even more differences in her mind, Xu Yingying still decided to forbear and not ask. After all, Zhong Lin would naturally say it when she wanted to.

"Zhong Lin, you consumed too much energy in dealing with that female ghost just now. Go and take a rest."

Xu Yingying saw Zhong Lin's strange look and felt worried.

"Okay." Zhong Lin nodded.

"Master, don't you want to ask me why I did that just now?" Zhong Lin was a little surprised that Xu Yingying didn't delve into the matter further.

"You must have your reasons for doing this. You will tell me when you want to say it." Xu Yingying said lightly.

"Thank you, master." Faced with the high respect and trust given by Xu Yingying, Zhong Lin's heart was filled with gratitude.

"You go down first!"

"Yes."

Xu Yingying quietly solved the problem of the female ghost beside Cui Jiangke, and then she quietly returned to the banquet.

"Yingying, how did you resolve the issue with the female ghost?"

Li Siqi subconsciously glanced at Cui Jiangke, feeling a little worried.

After all, he is the backbone of the military in the court. Once his physical condition has problems, it may be difficult to maintain stability at the border.

"Don't worry, I've already taken care of it."

Xu Yingying naturally understood Li Siqi's concerns, and then simply repeated the process of how the steel solved the female ghost.

Suddenly, the fragrance of rouge and powder wafted into the air, and everyone was attracted by the aroma.

"My dear gentlemen, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time. I'm sorry that I'm late today."

A pleasant voice was heard, which made many men present have wild thoughts.

Xu Yingying looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person coming was the courtesan Yang Huiwen.

She subconsciously looked at Li Siqi, who frowned slightly and even deliberately avoided Xu Yingying's sight.

"Your Majesty."

As soon as Yang Huiwen saw Li Siqi, she immediately showed an ecstatic expression and ran to Li Siqi's side.

"Your Majesty, what's the wind that brought you here today? I am so lucky. I haven't seen you for a long time."

Yang Huiwen clearly saw Xu Yingying sitting next to Li Siqi but deliberately ignored her.

"It is not easy for the Ninth Prince to come to my Baihua Tower today. Naturally, I am willing to serve him personally."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Huiwen squeezed in and wanted to sit next to Li Siqi.

"Miss Yang, this box is so big, why do you have to squeeze next to me?"

Li Siqi frowned slightly and deliberately avoided Yang Huiwen.

"Besides, it's so hot today, I feel it's a bit crowded for you to sit next to me."

Without waiting for Yang Huiwen to speak, Li Siqi looked embarrassed.

"Also, I'm afraid you've forgotten that what I hate most is the smell of this kind of beauty powder. Especially since you used inferior beauty powder. Do you want to suffocate me to death?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

As soon as the Ninth Prince finished speaking, the girls present all smiled with contempt, and many of them were gloating and waiting to see Yang Huiwen make a fool of herself.

Ever since Yang Huiwen became the new courtesan, she has been acting arrogant all day long.

Not only did she deliberately steal customers from other girls in Baihua Tower, she even used her status as the courtesan to maliciously suppress other girls.

But she was extremely valuable, and the madam had always turned a blind eye to Yang Huiwen's behavior in order to ensure the prosperity of Baihualou's business. The other girls had suffered too much grievance and were naturally dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, my rouge and powder are all bought from the Perfume Pavilion. How can it be low-quality?"

Yang Huiwen looked at Li Siqi with a wronged expression and even reached out to pull his sleeve.

"Miss Yang, this prince has mysophobia. Apart from this prince's princess, I would feel uncomfortable if any other woman approached this prince."

"But, I sincerely want to serve His Royal Highness the Prince."

Faced with Li Siqi's repeated rejections, Yang Huiwen felt deeply aggrieved.

She was the newest courtesan in Baihualou, and which man wouldn't flock to her? But the man she loved avoided her like a snake or scorpion.

Thinking of this, Yang Huiwen felt even more aggrieved. Two lines of crystal clear tears kept rolling in her eyes, trying to arouse Li Siqi's sympathy.

However, Li Siqi turned a blind eye to this and instead carefully placed Xu Yingying's favorite food on the table in front of her.

"Yingying, this is your favorite food."

"Thank you, Ninth Prince."

Xu Yingying laughed secretly in her heart, even though she and Li Siqi were indeed husband and wife in name only and not in any relationship.

After spending such a long time together, Xu Yingying had already developed a liking for Li Siqi.

"Ninth Prince."

Yang Huiwen looked at Li Siqi aggrievedly, and seeing that he was indifferent, she stared at Xu Yingying with resentment.

"Husband, this dish is also what you like to eat on weekdays."

Xu Yingying felt very happy when she saw Yang Huiwen being humiliated, and then she deliberately showed her love to Li Siqi in front of her.

Seeing this, Yang Huiwen hated Xu Yingying even more, and even her face, which was covered with delicate makeup, became distorted.
