Chapter 145 refusal

A few small servants stepped forward and waited for the king of Runan to change into a dark purple silk robe and put on a cloak, and the king of Runan strode out of the outer study, got in the car and went to the ancient house.

Cheng Ke was very excited and turned around the courtyard several times, instructed Nanhai to go and talk to the princess, and hurriedly rushed back to Qingjian Courtyard. Hurriedly bathed and washed, changed into clean clothes, strode out, and took people to the post house for a lively circle, leaving a long entourage and servants to clean up the main courtyard noisily, but he took a few personal servants, got into the car, and galloped away in the direction of the ancient mansion.

In the thick twilight, King Runan got out of the car in front of the ancient mansion, paused in his footsteps, and followed Tingbo, the chief butler who hurriedly greeted him, all the way to Mingyuan Hall.

Old Madam Li had already helped Zhuqing out of the main house, and King Runan hurriedly took a few steps forward, and said with a smile on his face:

"It's really presumptuous to disturb the old lady again, it's cold outside, the old lady is not in good health, I'll help you in."

As he spoke, King Runan stepped forward attentively, bowed slightly, performed the junior salute, and carefully held the arm of Mrs. Li.

"The prince is polite."

A hint of surprise flashed in Mrs. Li's eyes, and she let King Runan into the flower hall.

King Runan insisted on letting Mrs. Li sit on the first couch, sat on the chair in front of the couch by himself, took the tea offered by the little girl, drank two sips, put down the cup, looked at Mrs. Li, and said with a smile:

"Old lady, I came here to discuss things with the old lady."

King Runan paused, leaned back, picked up the cup, and took another sip of tea, Mrs. Li turned her head and signaled to Grandma Sun, Grandma Sun understood, took the girls and women, and carefully retreated.

King Runan put down the cup, his face was thick with embarrassment, and his voice was full of embarrassment:

"I have to ask the old lady to take care of this matter."

"If the prince has anything, just give orders."

Old Madam Li leaned forward slightly, and said warmly and politely, King Runan was even more embarrassed, and coughed lightly,

"Ahem, old lady, alas, I raised a bastard son, you know, in the past few years, how many things have been born for his family, the family is up and down, even the concubine has broken his heart This bastard thing is a stubborn thing to drag on until this year, it is twenty-one, this matter, as soon as I think about it, I can't sleep in a hurry, alas"

King Runan sighed a long sigh, Old Madam Li frowned slightly, and listened carefully to King Runan's words, King Runan sighed a few times before continuing:

"This afternoon, this bastard was sent by King Jing to come back to urge the matter of the household silver, and when he heard that his niece and granddaughter were married to Tang Sangongzi, he actually said alas."

King Runan paused in embarrassment and annoyance, sighed heavily, looked at Old Madam Li, and said embarrassedly:

"This bastard actually said that he wanted to marry this nephew, alas, you say, this makes people ...... Alas, if it weren't for the fact that his family affairs were so difficult, I would never have dared to come to the door and say this to the old lady. ”

Old Madam Li looked at King Runan with a shocked face, and for a moment she was a little relieved, King Runan stared at Old Madam Li, and then said:

"On the other side of the Tang family, naturally I went to explain the reason to Mr. Suiyun, and I hope that the old lady will be fulfilled and solve this important matter that is pressing on the Cheng family."

King Runan said sincerely, Old Madam Li came to her senses, looked at King Runan, and asked as if she had some understanding:

"Did the prince just hear about it?"

King Runan lowered his eyelids and nodded, Old Madam Li looked at King Runan, was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice:

"Lord Wang, my little granddaughter has been a very transparent and knowledgeable person since she was a child, and the old woman doesn't dare to make decisions for her in this matter."

King Runan was slightly stunned, and said with a smile:

"Please also ask the old lady to take care of it."

Old Madam Li nodded slowly, straightened up slightly and said:

"Lord Wang?"

"I'll just wait."

King Runan said with a smile, Old Madam Li nodded with a smile, raised her voice and called Grandma Sun and Zhuqing and others to come in, instructed Zhuye and others to wait in the flower hall, and helped Grandma Sun and Zhuqing into the main house.

After a while, Mrs. Li helped Zhuqing in, King Runan hurriedly put down the cup, looked at Mrs. Li with a smile on her face, Mrs. Li sat down on the couch with difficulty, looked at King Runan, accompanied by a smile on her face, and said in embarrassment:

"I'm really sorry for the prince, my little granddaughter said that since she has made up her mind, she is a member of the Tang family, and there is no reason to allow others."

The King of Runan looked at Mrs. Li with a face full of surprise, and was speechless for a while, Mrs. Li looked at the King of Runan with a wry smile, and said in a low voice:

"It's my little granddaughter who is not blessed, and I ask the prince to forgive me."

A hint of embarrassment flashed in King Runan's eyes, and he said with a smile:

"It's okay, this, that, it's gone."

King Runan got up, said goodbye, got into the car in the gate of the ancient mansion, his face was gloomy, the car walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped, without waiting for King Runan to ask, the curtain of the car was lifted, Cheng Ke jumped in, looked at King Runan with a smile on his face and asked:

"Okay? Now go to the lecture hall and retreat? ”

King Runan's face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly without answering, Cheng Ke smiled on his face, looked at his father whose face was so gloomy that he could drip water, and asked hesitantly:

"What did the old lady say badly? What are the requests? ”

"The girl refuses to marry you"

King Runan stared at Cheng Ke and said heavily, Cheng Ke's eyes widened, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted,

"Not married? Why? ”

King Runan leaned back with a gloomy face, lowered his eyelids and said:

"She is unwilling, even if this family matter is our Cheng family, there is no reason to forcibly take the **, you will die of this heart, tomorrow I will pick a good family for you, if you want a stunning one, it is not difficult"

Cheng Ke's face was pale, he pursed his mouth tightly, sat with his fists clenched for a while, suddenly lifted the curtain of the car, jumped out of the car, and Wang Runan didn't catch it, so he hurriedly jumped out of the car, dragged Cheng Ke, and asked sharply:

"What are you going to do?"

Cheng Ke's forehead protruded, he turned his head, looked at his father with a blue face and said:

"Don't worry."

As he spoke, he broke free, flew up, and ran in the direction of the ancient mansion, and a few small people such as Yuanshan also hurriedly ran out, King Runan stomped his feet angrily, stood under the car for a long time, sighed, alas, the master said, follow him, follow him, follow him

King Runan reluctantly got into the car and went home.

Cheng Ke ran to the alley behind the garden of the ancient mansion, jumped up, entered the garden, and ran in the direction of Mingyuan Hall.

Cheng Ke paused outside the corner gate of Mingyuan Hall's garden, Yuan Shan hurriedly grabbed him, and Luo Chuan asked in a low voice:

"What are you going to do? We have to have a charter. ”

Cheng Ke hung his head for a moment, and coldly ordered:

"Take her away, I want to talk to her about it"

Yuan Shan and a few other small guys looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders down, looked at Cheng Ke with a pale face, no one dared to persuade him, Luo Chuan had a bitter face, and said in a low voice:

"Shall we wait? Wait for someone to sleep, and then do it? If this person comes and goes, if he makes a disturbance, he will not be able to take it away. ”

Cheng Ke thought about it, nodded, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, and the four little guys such as Yuanshan stood around vigilantly with distressed and vigilant faces.

After most of the hour, Mingyuan Hall quieted down, and Luo Chuan came back from the movement, and reported in a low voice:

"Master, the old lady has rested, Miss Li has just gone back to the east wing."

Cheng Ke nodded with a cold face, and rushed straight in at the corner door.

A few little guys hurriedly followed, Luo Chuan hurriedly walked to the front to lead, carefully avoiding the rough girl who was still busy along the way, and ran to the back of the east wing.

When they arrived at the back window of the wing room, a few small people paused a little farther away, Cheng Ke stuck to the window, poked open the cotton paper, and looked inside.

In the house, only two little girls are cleaning up the lamps and candles, cushions, tea, and fruits, Li Xiaonuan is not in the house, Cheng Ke was stunned, twisted his eyebrows and was about to leave, Yu Kou came out of it with a few big cotton handkerchiefs, and put them on the couch, Li Xiaonuan had wet hair, wearing lilac plain satin clothes and pants, bare feet, dragging a pair of shoes, turned out of the clean room inside, stretched her waist and sat on the couch with a smile, and Yu Kou took a cotton handkerchief and carefully twisted her hair.

Cheng Ke stared at Li Xiaonuan blankly, as if in the blink of an eye, she had become so dazzling.

Cheng Ke watched the jade buckle dry Li Xiaonuan's hair finely, used a comb to open it, loosely rolled it up, took half a step back, raised his hand and signaled Luo Chuan, Luo Chuan stepped forward with a distressed face, took the incense from his arms, lit it with a fire sickle, and gently waved it with his hand, letting the smoke float in through the hole in the window.

Cheng Ke waited impatiently outside, and after a quarter of an hour, Luo Chuan looked inside, took a few steps back with the incense, and motioned to Cheng Ke, Cheng Ke stood for a moment with his eyes down, stepped forward and lifted the window, and jumped in.

In the room, Li Xiaonuan was lying on the couch in a daze, rubbing her brows with her hands, as if she was confused about something, Cheng Ke jumped into the house, stood in front of the couch, looked down at Li Xiaonuan, reached out and untied the cloak and wrapped it around her, and said in a low voice:

"Don't be afraid, it's me"

Li Xiaonuan shuddered, and was about to scream when he opened his mouth, Cheng Ke hurriedly stepped forward to cover Li Xiaonuan's mouth, looked down at Li Xiaonuan's eyes full of horror, gritted his teeth, and simply raised his hand to knock her out.

Cheng Ke carefully wrapped Li Xiaonuan, hugged her and was about to jump out, thought about it, touched it on his body, took off the Panlong jade pendant on his waist, gently put it in the most conspicuous place on the couch, bent down to pick up Li Xiaonuan, and jumped out.

Luo Chuan led in front, and a few small servants scattered around Cheng Ke, while being vigilant, they hurried to the corner gate of the garden.

Cheng Ke hugged Li Xiaonuan into the car, and hurriedly ordered:

"Go to the other courtyard, quick."

Luo Chuan jumped in front of the car, shook the reins, and drove the car towards the palace courtyard

Oh, I'm sorry it's late

Dear everyone, I wish you all a happy holiday
