An Yina secretly clenched her fists when she heard that.
Wuma Jun, who was in the tea room, calculated the time. He felt that An Yina had already left, so he got up and went out. However, he did not expect her to be talking to a maid at the door of the tea room. He sneered in his heart. It seemed like this woman could not leave him.
"There's someone next door." An Yina did not explain further. Her tone was very cold. "I don't know where he came from."
Wuma Jun immediately tensed up when he heard that. He immediately felt a burst of anger.
He was so angry that he almost choked. "You have no rules. Doesn't the manager of the teahouse know that today is a special day and this teahouse doesn't receive guests?"
As he spoke, he felt a sense of guilt and fear. It was true that he and An Yina had a secret rendezvous, but he did not want this matter to be exposed.
The Dongqing royal family was very chaotic. It was common for one to sleep with his father's concubine, not to mention snatching his brother's sister-in-law, bullying the ministers' wives, and even sleeping with his father's concubine. However, these were done by the elders. Wuma Jun wanted the throne and the ambition to unify the nine states. He had to maintain a good image in public. If it was revealed that he had an affair with his second sister-in-law for many years and made his second brother a cuckold, he would be courting death.
Wuma Jun had gone through a lot of hardships to get rid of the title of an unfavored prince. He gradually entered the emperor's line of sight, entered the court to work, and accumulated his own connections. He had a very good image in public. He was polite, gentle, and modest. He had accumulated a lot of resources and had his own followers.
In a few days, he was going to marry the daughter of Liu Prefecture's magistrate, Liu She. He would have a powerful family of in-laws. He could not fail at the last step.
He could only be a prince of noble character and unquestionable integrity. He could not be an animal who had an affair with his second sister-in-law.
In the past, when he and An Yina had a secret rendezvous, the tea room next door would be empty and not receive guests. It had been like that for a few years. That was why Wuma Jun was so unguarded … He never expected such a big mistake to happen today. His vision faintly darkened and he almost lost his footing.
In the face of Wuma Jun's reprimand, the maid knelt on the ground and shivered. Even her molars were chattering.
"Find out who is in this room first. If it's not important, make a decision early to avoid any unforeseen events."
Princess An Yina was extremely calm. she whispered in Wuma Jun's ear. Her usually pleasant voice carried a chilling murderous intent.
Wuma Jun's muddled mind cleared up a little, and he immediately agreed to the suggestion.
Between himself and others, he would naturally choose himself. Whoever stood in his path to success would be the one to die!
Thinking of this, a ferocious killing intent flashed across his face.
An Yina sneered secretly when she saw that.
Dongqing was nothing more than a country of etiquette.
From top to bottom, they were all beasts wearing delicate clothes.
"I know," Wuma Jun replied coldly.
In the tea room, An Yina's movements did not escape Jiang Pengji's ears. She did not ignore the malice and murderous aura coming from her.
Jiang Pengji picked up the teacup and took a sip, then stood up gracefully.
That posture was extremely leisurely, and anyone who saw it would exclaim in admiration.
"Let's go and welcome the guest outside."
Xu Ke put down the teacup and furrowed his brows. He knew that the visitor was not friendly.
However, they refused to admit it. What else could Wuma Jun do?
Could it be that this person had the courage to kill his Langjun?
Outside the house, Wuma Jun had just come up with a few schemes in his mind. He was thinking about how to deal with the person quietly.
All of a sudden, the door was opened from the inside.
"Xiaoyu, you'd better bring enough money with you. Otherwise, I'll really have to pawn you here today …"
As soon as the door was opened, a clear voice became clearer. Wuma Jun and Princess An Yina subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.
Two young men walked out one after the other. The one in front was tall and handsome, while the one behind deliberately lagged behind by three steps. He was a head taller than the one in front, and his expression was cold and hard, and his lips were thin.
The strange thing was that the young man, who was wearing a green Confucian robe, had a stack of gauze covering the right side of his face near his ear. He looked weird.
Wuma Jun's killing intent surged in his heart, but when he saw Jiang Pengji's face clearly, he suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning.
At that moment, Jiang Pengji "coincidentally" saw him. Her eyes lit up, and she walked toward him.
"Zhengze? Is that you? "The young man's voice was a little uncertain. When he got closer, it all turned into joy.
Xu Ke secretly laughed behind him. Langjun had good acting skills.
Wuma Jun resisted the urge to break into a run. He braced himself and cupped his hands at Jiang Pengji. "Lanting."
"Hey, you're treating me like an outsider if you just call me Lanting. You'll be my brother-in-law in a few days. We're family. You don't have to be so polite."
Jiang Pengji smiled. There was not a trace of gloom on her face. Her eyes were bright, and her breathing and expression were 100% on point.
Even if she was putting on a show, even if she was lying with her eyes open, she could still make the most perfect response.
When Princess An Yina heard their conversation, her beautiful eyes darkened. She guessed Jiang Pengji's identity in her heart and felt that it was rather tricky.
Wuma Jun was the brother of the princess's wife and the second legitimate son of Liu She. His identity could not be touched.
Since he could not be touched, he would sound her out to see if she had heard anything that she should not have in the tea room.
Obviously, Wuma Jun thought so too.
"If that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony and call you brother-in-law!" Wuma Jun smiled and chatted with Jiang Pengji, as if they were very close. When they were almost done chatting and the atmosphere was heated up, he pretended to inadvertently change the topic to the tea room.
Jiang Pengji knew his intention, so she took the initiative to invite them into the tea room. She was not curious about An Yina's identity. It was as if she was just Wuma Jun's concubine. It was a normal reaction. Even the brother-in-law had no right to control his future brother-in-law's concubine, so he could only choose to ignore her.
She asked the maid to clean up the tea table and serve new tea ingredients and tea sets.
Wuma Jun asked, "Why did you come here to drink tea?"
"To accompany Xiaoyu to buy things for his new wife. Tsk tsk. They're already married, but they're still so sweet."
Jiang Pengji directly put all the blame on Xu Ke with one sentence.
Xu Ke could not say anything about it.
Wuma Jun had a low threshold for laughter. After hearing that, he clapped his hands and laughed, as if he was really amused.
Jiang Pengji continued, "He's tall and strong, so he's not afraid of getting tired. My two thin legs can't take it. I saw that there's a tea room here, so I came up to rest. Speaking of which, this is a good place. It's obviously a busy city, but it's quiet after I came up. It's just a little deserted. "
Wuma Jun said, "That's not right. It's an elegant place. If it's filled with noise from the outside world, won't it spoil the atmosphere?"
"That's true. If that's the case, it'll be inferior and appear vulgar." Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "After listening to your explanation, this tea room actually has some hidden interest in the city. However, I'm worried that the tea here is expensive, so I don't dare to come here often. "
