I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 289: Panic and inferiority complex, picking faults with the servant

However, Leng Xian knew clearly that he could no longer think of leaving the city to go to Banshan Manor to find Leng Rongyue in person!

The Emperor was already filled with rage because of Fu Baozhen's dowry, because Leng Rongyue was born out of wedlock in Marquis Qinxing's mansion, and because of the abuse she suffered from her grandmother and her father!

What's more, he had missed the morning court twice and forgot to ask for leave twice, which had already incurred the emperor's wrath.

I haven't received the emperor's punishment yet!

If I don't be cautious and add fuel to the fire, what if, as Zheng Tong said, the emperor investigates it and gets angry and directly takes away my hereditary marquisate...

Hiss... Leng Xian took a breath of cold air when he thought of this...

If it really comes to that, then... everything will be over for me!

Leng Xian thought about it and Leng Rongyue became his life-saving talisman again!

With Leng Rongyue around, the emperor would not easily strip him of his marquisate in order to allow Leng Rongyue to marry as the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Qinxing in the future.

But he didn't dare to take the risk.

Leng Xian thought, I should find Liu Da and ask him about the details of this trip, and then think about the next plan!

Thinking of this, Leng Xian shouted outside: "Zhongshun... Zhongshun..."

Zhongshun was just thinking about something when he suddenly heard the Marquis calling him. He was startled and quickly responded, "Yes, Marquis, I'm outside!"

"Go and find Liu Da for me!" Leng Xian ordered.

"Yes, my lord, I'll go right away." Zhongshun ran away.

When Zhongshun came to the gatehouse next to the gate and found Liu Da, Liu Da was lying on the kang in the small room.

Liu Da bent his legs, put his hands behind his head, and stared at the beams.

Zhongshun looked at Liu Da, then at the beam he was staring at...

What are you looking at so intently?

Zhongshun followed Liu Da's gaze, looked back and forth, but didn't find anything strange.

So he walked over, sat on the kang and patted Liu Da, "Hey, Liu Da, what are you looking at?"

Liu Da came back to his senses, looked at Zhongshun, and let out a long sigh, "I didn't see anything."

Zhongshun understood Liu Da's lack of energy when he saw his depressed look.

At this moment, they are all the same. No one is energetic, no one is in a good mood, and they all just want to live one day at a time.

Zhongshun thought of the purpose of his visit and said hurriedly, "Hurry up and get up. The Marquis wants to question you. I think... he wants to ask you about your trip to Banshan Manor to pick up the young lady."

After hearing this, Liu Da curled his lips, slowly sat up, and slowly moved off the kang. He walked to the table beside him, picked up the kettle on the table, poured a glass of water and drank it. Then he looked at Zhongshun, turned around and walked out without saying a word.

Zhongshun looked at Liu Da's decadent back and couldn't help but sigh, then followed him.

The two went to Zhongshun's cabin to meet Leng Xian.

In the small room, Leng Xian drank the two cups of tea that Zhongshun had just brought over.

At this time, Leng Xian was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, with his legs stretched out and his back leaning against the bedpost. No one knew what he was thinking about, and his face was pale.

Liu Da walked in first, stepped forward, clasped his fists, bowed, and saluted, "I greet you, Lord Marquis!"

Leng Xian didn't move, but turned his eyes to look at Liu Da, "Liu Da, you are so arrogant!

You came back from a trip without reporting what happened. Do you have to wait for me to invite you?

Just because something happened in the Marquis' Mansion, you no longer take me seriously?"

After hearing Leng Xian's words, Liu Da leaned forward and said, "My Lord, calm down! I dare not!

I drove the carriage into the mansion, made all the arrangements, and then planned to go and see the Marquis.

I just heard that the Shuntian Prefecture Governor Zheng was talking to the Marquis, and I didn't dare to disturb him, so I avoided him first! "

Perhaps because the Marquis's Mansion was suddenly robbed, Leng Xian felt both panicked and inferior!

He felt that everyone looked down on him now, and everyone was laughing at his coldness, even the servants in the mansion.

Leng Xian looked at Liu Da for a moment before asking, "What happened when you went to Banshan Manor this time? Tell me about it."

"Yes, my lord!" Liu Da had already organized his words on the way here from the gatehouse.

At this moment, he began to talk about his trip to the Mid-Mountain Manor.

"Reporting to the Marquis, I rode my horse as fast as I could yesterday and arrived at the Banshan Manor.

But, I couldn’t even enter the gate of Banshan Manor, let alone meet the young lady! "

"Is it the young lady who doesn't see you?

Or did the old lady and two ladies of the Anguo Mansion not allow the young lady to see you?" Leng Xian asked.

Hearing Leng Xian asking himself, Liu Da sighed secretly in his heart.

It was the eldest lady who did not want to see him, and did not want to return;

Or is it that the old lady and the two ladies don’t allow the eldest lady to see or come back? Does it make any difference?

In the end, I didn’t even get to see the eldest lady!

Not only was the trip in vain, but the city gate was also closed too.

I paid for my meals and hotel accommodation myself.

Being a slave and running errands is enough for me!

But right now, my master is asking me questions, and I have no choice but to answer.

So Liu Da repeated the sarcastic remarks made by the gatekeeper like a parrot.

Leng Xian had a gloomy face and sat there listening without saying a word.

It was not until Liu Da said that he missed the time last night and could not get into the city gate in time, so he had to stay outside the city, and only rushed back to the mansion early this morning, that Leng Xian looked at Liu Da with those sinister eyes, "Haha... you really know how to choose the time to come back!

If you hadn't come back at the wrong time this morning, how could I have been blocked at the gate, and let those lowly people outside ridicule and mock me at will?"
