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

Chapter 279 The Embarrassed Marquis Prepares to Go Out

Zhongshun's footsteps startled Leng Xian and Yin who were in the room.

Yin stopped crying, wiped her eyes, and sat facing inside.

Zhongshun ran to the door.

The door was wide open, so there was no need to knock.

Zhongshun bowed and reported to Leng Xian: "My Lord, this is bad!

Yesterday...the shop owners and clerks who came yesterday are here again!

They are now blocking the gate of the mansion again, clamoring for our mansion to settle the old accounts!

Butler Lu and Mr. Peng are already…almost…almost unable to cope with it!"

"Useless things!

These lowly businessmen usually bow and scrape with a smile on their faces, but now they are turning against us and forcing us to come to your doorstep.

"When I recover, these shops...don't even think about doing business with my Marquis Qinxing Mansion!" Leng Xian said angrily.

Since Zhongshun had come over to deal with the matter, Qiugui and Chuntao no longer had to hide from anything. They walked over and stood behind Zhongshun.

Leng Xian saw it and asked hurriedly, "Is the carriage ready?"

Qiu Gui bowed and replied, "My Lord, I have passed the message to Xiao Luozi. Xiao Luozi has gone to prepare the horse. It should... should be ready by now!"

Leng Xian stood up and walked out of the hut.

Suddenly, he thought of something and looked down at himself.

Leng Xian was only wearing a white undergarment, which was already a little dirty at the edges.

Looking at his feet again, he was still wearing a pair of Zhongshun's old shoes.

Leng Xian frowned and thought for a while, then ordered Zhongshun, "Go quickly and find one of Steward Lu's best clothes and one of his best shoes in his room, and bring them to this Marquis, quickly!"

"Oh, yes!" Zhongshun received the order and turned around and ran away.

Leng Xian frowned and paced back and forth in the palm-sized hut.

Qiugui and Chuntao looked at them and lowered their heads.

First, seeing the Marquis on the verge of going berserk, they were afraid, fearing that they would get into trouble;

Another thing is that they felt dizzy watching the marquis walking around like a headless fly.

After a while, Zhongshun came back with a soft silk robe and a pair of cloth shoes that were almost new.

Leng Xian snatched it away, put the robe on himself, and then took the shoes and put them on his feet.

"Zhongshun, follow me!" Leng Xian ordered.

"Yes, Lord Marquis!" Zhongshun followed Leng Xian out.

Just as he was leaving the house, Leng Xian stopped again and looked at Zhongshun, "Zhongshun, take some of your money with you in case of emergency.

Don't worry, the silver is borrowed by me.

After this period of time, I will return you double!"

"Ah? Oh!" Zhongshun nodded helplessly, went back into the house, opened the only wooden box, reached in and fumbled for a long time before he took out four pieces of silver.

Leng Xian took a look and saw that Zhongshun only had six or seven taels of silver in his hand.

But, for now, something is better than nothing.

Leng Xian was about to leave with Zhongshun when Yin, who was sitting there, jumped up from the bench and chased out of the house, "My Lord, if you...if you leave now, then...what should I do?

"Those shopkeepers and waiters outside the gate, if...if Steward Lu and the others can't stop them, how should I...how should I deal with them?"

"Idiot! If you can't even handle such a small matter, what's the use of you?

Just say that I went to pick up my daughter in person!

Everything can be solved if my daughter comes back!"

"But...but yesterday...didn't you say that yesterday?

They are here again today... today!

If I say this again today...will they believe it?"

Leng Xian was too lazy to say anything more to Yin Shi, and just said, "It doesn't matter whether they believe it or not, I can't delay any longer!"

Leng Xian said this, not caring about Yin, and left quickly with Zhongshun.

Yin, wearing only her inner garments, leaned weakly against the door frame, staring blankly in the direction where Leng Xian had left, tears streaming down her swollen cheeks.

"Madam!" Qiu Gui stepped forward and said softly, "Madam, can I help you go in and lie down to rest?"

Yin didn't respond and continued to stand stupidly against the door frame.

Qiu Gui looked at Chun Tao and motioned for her to go over with him.

The two of them supported Yin on both sides and walked back into the house. They helped Yin lie down on the bed. Qiu Gui pulled the quilt over and covered Yin.

Yin stared blankly at the ceiling of the tent, crying silently.

Qiugui and Chuntao dared not breathe a word and stood aside with their heads down.

Leng Xian and Zhong Shun rushed towards the side door of the Marquis' Mansion.

Now, Leng Xian didn't dare to get on the carriage outside the gate of the Marquis' Mansion in a dignified manner.

How could the people surrounding the Marquis's mansion allow him to get on the carriage and leave in a straightforward manner?

Xiao Luozi had already prepared the carriage that Yin took yesterday and was waiting in the open space at the side door.

Seeing Leng Xian and Zhongshun coming over, Xiao Luozi bowed politely to Leng Xian.

Leng Xian didn't even look at Xiao Luozi, and stepped directly onto the carriage by stepping on the footstool.

Zhongshun followed Leng Xian upstairs.

Xiao Luozi put away the footstool and led the carriage to the side door.

The gatekeeper opened the two doors, and Xiao Luozi drove the carriage out of the side door.

But what they didn't expect was that after the horses went out, the carriage behind them had not yet gone out when it was blocked by a carriage coming in from outside.
