Chapter 204 The evil guest comes to the door
"Sister, if we ask grandma to come over, will this be feasible?" Chu Ci slowly put down the letter in his hand, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, and he asked his sister tentatively in a soft voice.
There was obvious uncertainty and hesitation in her tone, as if she was going through a fierce struggle and weighing of the pros and cons in her heart, and was eager to get some opinions and views from her eldest sister.
"Rui Ge'er's proposal?" Fan Qianxi glanced at the letter in Chu Ci's hand and asked.
Chu Ci nodded.
Seeing this, Fan Qianxi continued, "Grandma has experienced countless storms. With her reputation and prestige, few people dare to show off their status or play tricks in front of her."
"Then can we go to Beijing with sister-in-law?" When Qianxue and Qianyan heard this, their eyes suddenly sparkled and their faces were immediately filled with excitement.
Chu Ci couldn't bear to spoil the fun, so he said slowly: "If nothing unexpected happens."
"Let's go pack up now." Qianxue and Qianyan automatically ignored the word "accident" and were immersed in the joy and excitement of achieving their wish.
"He's really a child." Seeing this, Fan Qianxi couldn't help but shook her head gently. The doting yet somewhat helpless smile on her face became more and more obvious, and she sighed softly.
Chu Ci also smiled slightly, with a gentle light in his eyes.
But just at such a warm moment, Fifteen hurried in, "Boss, the purple-robed envoy has sent a message. Yazhou Governor, Yang Yan brought your parents to Lianzhou, and now they have settled down in the Tongfu Inn, the largest inn in Lianzhou."
Fifteen's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly breaking the originally warm and peaceful atmosphere.
Chu Ci frowned tightly, her face full of solemnity, her eyes showing deep thought, she said slowly: "The other party is coming for me."
After hearing Chu Ci's guess, Fan Qianxi's expression became serious. Various possibilities flashed through her mind quickly, and then she asked, "Did Rui Ge'er's news leak?"
Then, as if she had thought of something, she continued, "But why did only the Chu couple come? Were they here voluntarily or were they forced..."
However, before she could finish her words, Chu Ci interrupted her directly and said in a serious and firm tone: "Whether it is voluntary or forced, in fact, in the current situation, there is no essential difference."
"Our first and most important task at this moment is to find out the purpose of Yang Yan's actions."
Chu Ci frowned as he spoke, lost in deep thought.
At this moment, Fifteen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly added, "It is said that this Governor Yang was exiled from the capital."
When Chu Ci heard this, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, and he immediately asked: "What is his style of doing things?"
"I heard by chance that Yang Yan had adopted some inappropriate and even radical and risky means in order to quickly gain merit in the capital, but he ended up making things worse and causing trouble."
"But because of the Yang family's strong protection, he was ultimately exiled to Yazhou to serve as the governor."
Fifteen frowned, trying hard to search for bits and pieces about Yang Yan in his mind. He spoke slowly as he recalled, trying to provide everyone with more useful and detailed information.
But whether it was Fan Qianxi or Chu Ci, they actually didn't have much substantive understanding of Yang Yan.
It is impossible to piece together a complete and clear image of Yang Yan just through some fragmentary rumors and the limited information provided by Fifteen just now.
"Forget it, if the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers, and if the water comes, we will block it with earth." After some fruitless thinking, Chu Ci finally gave up completely as if he was somewhat helpless.
She sighed slightly and said, "Anyway, no matter what the other party's purpose is, I don't think they will take our lives directly. After all, things have not reached the point where they are out of control. There is no need for us to be so anxious and worried. Let's take it one step at a time and adapt to the situation."
As she spoke, Chu Ci showed a just the right amount of bitter smile on her face, but her eyes still revealed determination and calmness.
You know, Chu Ci is the backbone of everyone present, and her subtle performance immediately affected the mood of everyone present.
Fan Qianxi and the others also echoed, "Yes, no matter what, we will advance and retreat together."
However, even if I was mentally prepared.
Chu Ci and the others had never expected that on the morning of the next day, without any visiting card or notice, Yang Yan would come to their door without any warning in the name of Chu Ci's parents.
Chu Ci really couldn't understand the train of thought of Governor Yang Yan. "Is Governor Yang really brainless and inconsiderate? Or is he openly and blatantly looking down on me, the princess personally appointed by the emperor?"
"Why does he act so recklessly?"
Chu Ci then slowly turned his head and cast his gaze towards the purple-robed envoy sitting below.
The Purple-Robed Envoy was of course aware that Chu Ci's words were intentional, but he had to admit that Yang Yan's series of actions had indeed planted a deep thorn in his heart.
Although it has not caused any significant reaction yet, Chu Ci firmly believes that there will be a moment of explosion.
In fact, when Yang Yan led the cowering Chu couple in with a swagger, the purple-robed envoy immediately narrowed his eyes and asked sternly: "Governor Yang, are all the Yangs in Guanxi as rude and wanton as you?"
"Do you know me?" Yang Yan looked arrogant and didn't take the Purple-Robed Envoy seriously at all.
What he was more concerned about at this moment was why his identity was exposed.
Yang Yan frowned and said with a somewhat dissatisfied and questioning tone: "Who are you? Where is Princess Yi Xin? I have sent her parents to your house with good intentions today. It is reasonable for her to show up, right?"
The purple-robed envoy raised a cold smile, looked straight at Yang Yan, and said: "If I recognize you, you are Lord Yang. If I don't recognize you, you are just an uninvited and vulgar scoundrel. It is not excessive to beat you to death."
Although Yang Yan thinks highly of himself, he was carefully trained by the Yang family after all, and he is not a person without insight.
When he heard the Purple Envoy call himself "this Envoy", he instantly realized his identity. His face changed slightly, and his eyes flashed with surprise and thought. Then he said in a tone that was a little uncertain and a little surprised: "Are you the Purple Envoy of the Embroidered Clothes Law Enforcement who is stationed in Lianzhou?"
