Chapter 802 - Point Maze (500 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
Cheng Tingzhen quickly turned his eyes and glanced at Qin Su.
In that glance, there was a fleeting, absolute horror, and horror.
However, this look appeared for a very short time, but in an instant, the different color in his eyes had disappeared, and it was replaced by some kind of relief.
"It turned out that Her Royal Highness the princess secretly helped, and the servant was here to thank you. Cheng Tingzhen said respectfully, retreated on his knees, bowed to the ground, and his voice was extremely respectful.
Sure enough, he is a smart person, and he can see through it at all.
Qin Su smiled happily and said with a slight teasing: "Instead of thanking me, Cheng Hou should thank that there is an extra forest next to the willow flower crossing, if not, how can he pass on the news unknowingly and help Cheng Hou get rid of a heart disease?"
between words and laughter, but acquiesced to everything back then.
His Highness smiled. Cheng Tingzhen's face gradually dissipated, and he said with a straight face: "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving your life back then, and my Cheng family is full of gratitude." As he spoke, he bowed to the ground again, and he could not kneel.
The Cheng family was a difficult time back then, and if it weren't for Qin Su's help several times, it was really hard to say whether the Cheng family would have survived.
His gratitude at this moment is indeed from the bottom of his heart.
And what Qin Su was thinking about at this time was another matter.
Three rare books and one picture album, in order to avoid the trouble of the Qin family, she had to use the Cheng family to lay out a series of trouble-moving schemes, but she also helped the Cheng family a lot in disguise.
Moreover, the benefits they get are far more than that.
If it weren't for Qin Su's rebirth and instigation of the first thread, which changed the direction of many things, how could the surnames Qin and Cheng escape the sin of Shuanghe, which made the He family slaughtered?
In addition, Ah Ren also warned Cheng Tingzhen, so that he found out the hidden stake hidden beside him. For this alone, Qin Su felt that Cheng Tingzhen should kneel down and kowtow a hundred times.
"The old things of the past, Cheng Hou has not forgotten them, and I am very relieved. She said slowly, her face calm.
"I don't dare to forget. Cheng Tingzhen was very clever and did not elaborate on the reason, but only kowtowed vigorously and thanked: "Your Highness has sent a letter of guidance several times, and my Cheng family can have today's glory, thanks to His Royal Highness's blessing." ”
Qin Su bent his eyebrows in satisfaction.
Gratitude is the best quality in the world. And Cheng Tingzhen's attitude at the moment also made her extremely happy.
"That's it, Cheng Hou should hurry up. You and I are old people, and we have a previous fate, and it is also the will of God. She said softly, and the smile on her face was very sincere: "I also want to thank your wife for helping me at the Shangsi Palace banquet." ”
At this point, she turned to Xue Yunyan again, and said softly: "The birthday banquet that Xue Zhongcheng held for his younger sister is also just right. Otherwise, my maid Amei would not be able to deliver the letter to Mrs. Cheng. Here, I would also like to thank Xue Zhongcheng for his great help, which saved me from a trouble. ”
The most important thing is that Xue Yunyan and Xue's reputation have not been damaged in the slightest. For Qin Su, this result is better than anything else.
At the time of the banquet in the palace, the reason why Jiang Banniang was able to send Li Shuyi out of the color shed was due to Mrs. Cheng's contribution. As the wife of the Marquis of Ting, Mrs. Cheng is eligible to participate in the banquet of the Shangsi Palace. At that time, if it hadn't been for the small chaos created by this Pavilion Marquis and attracted the attention of many palace people, things would not have gone so smoothly that day.
The "mysterious helper" that Qin Su mentioned to Jiang Banniang was referring to this Mrs. Cheng. And she specially ordered Jiang Banniang to take Amei to the Xue Mansion for a banquet, which was to ask Amei to meet Mrs. Cheng.
You must know that the Xue family is the greatest benefactor of the Cheng family. In that year, Cheng Tingzhen succeeded Xiao Gongwang as the minister of Jiangyang County, which was recommended by Xue Yunyan, and then Cheng Tingzhen entered Beijing because of his merits, and Xue Yunyan also spent a lot of effort. The Xue family held a banquet, and Cheng Tingzhen and his wife will definitely attend.
Qin Su ordered Amei to meet Mrs. Cheng in order to hand her a note.
On that note, Qin Su recited a lame hidden poem according to the usual practice, and the first word of each sentence of that poem was like this:
"Shuanghe is a great adversity, and manpower is exempt".
At the end of the note, it was written: "At the Shangsi Palace Banquet, Mrs. Cheng should secretly help Jiang Banniang, and there must be no mistake." ”
Qin Su didn't know that the moment he saw the note, Cheng Tingzhen's sweat immediately came down.
Shuanghe's big crime, his Cheng family actually accounts for half of it, and this matter is the biggest hidden danger in his heart. And the appearance of this note made him seem to return to that period of fear.
He will never forget, just a few days after the slaughter of the He family, someone suddenly sent him a letter at night, pointing out that there was a hidden pile around him, telling him to carefully clean the portal, and sent him a message, saying "Lianyun Zhenjuan, Liudu gave the picture, so the person is fine."
If it weren't for this repeated reminder, he would not have cleared the Cheng Mansion, found out the nails hidden in the Cheng family, and destroyed all the stolen things.
It can be said that the glory of the Cheng family today is completely based on the warnings and help of this unknown "Engong" several times.
And after receiving the note handed over by Mrs. Cheng, Cheng Tingzhen's heart, which had been hanging in the air, lifted it up again.
The person who secretly helped the Cheng family several times was a "mysterious person" who he had never given up pursuing in the past few years. And at this moment, this person chased Dadu with such a note, how can you tell him not to be alarmed?
Even if he didn't hesitate to let Mrs. Cheng do what the note asked, if nothing else, he only secretly helped this person several times, and he didn't dare to disobey in the slightest.
And Qin Su was so sure in front of Jiang Banniang at the beginning, also because she knew that just because of the crime of Shuanghe, Cheng Tingzhen would not and would not dare to disobey her words.
With Cheng Tingzhen's cleverness, he would even guess that the person who secretly helped the Cheng family many times was likely to be a nobleman in a high position, and even related to the royal family.
Because, Amei, who sent the message to Mrs. Cheng, is a palace person of high grade, and this alone increases the possibility that the person in the secret is a certain prince.
Now that he has seen Qin Su, Cheng Tingzhen's guess that the prince has become a princess is not far away, so he will quickly calm down after the initial shock.
This may be different from his imagination, but combined with the situation at the time, it is the most reasonable explanation.
If it weren't for Qin Su, who prince could know so much about the situation of these low-ranking scholars in Qingzhou, and still be able to help? What prince would live in the same inn with the Cheng family and pass on the news several times?
As for why Qin Su has so much information, and why he has repeatedly secretly helped the Cheng family, Cheng Tingzhen, who is well versed in the world, will not ask more.
After all, their Cheng family owes Qin Su, and now to dig deeper into the antecedents is tantamount to asking for trouble, which is meaningless.
