Chapter 158: Follow-up
Hearing Li Guan's words, Ye Zicheng was stunned and said, "Why do you think so?" Since Shen Guogong has cooperated with the Meng family, the Meng family and him are naturally one in honor and disgrace, even if the incident happens in the future, he definitely has no reason to abandon the pawn and protect the car, not to mention that you are behind the Meng family, how can he stand by coldly? ”
"You're wrong!" Li Guan said coldly, "It is impossible for the Meng family to share honor and disgrace with him, for him, the Meng family is just a chess piece, have you ever heard of anyone who will go out of their way for a chess piece?" Also, it is precisely because I am behind the Meng family that he will not look at the Meng family in his eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Don't you know what's going on between me and him? How can I be regarded by his dignified Shen Guogong? ”
Her mocking tone was really beyond Ye Zicheng's expectations, and he was silent for a long time before he sighed: "It turns out that you don't trust Shen Guogong so much......"
"Or else? Am I still going to have to trust him? Li Guan gave him a strange look.
“…… Well, trust or distrust us put aside for the time being. Ye Zicheng said helplessly.
He really wanted to remind Li Guan that maybe she had always been prejudiced against Yu Fengyao, so she was so jealous of him.
But he also knew that Li Guan's temperament was twisted, and it was difficult to change what he believed was easy, and he was helping Yu Fengyao to speak now, which would only make her even more unhappy.
So he decided to start from a different angle.
"When the water is clear, there are no fish, the Meng family can have a place in the capital and the south of the Yangtze River, and it must have an inextricable relationship with the government. Not to mention anything else, Liu Wentao, the prefect of Yangzhou, has not moved for six years, which is certainly related to his political achievements, but the most fundamental reason is that he is reluctant to leave. The Meng family can mix well in the territory he is in charge of, and there is the Jiang family, the head snake of the land, next to him, I think the Meng family must have a lot of benefits for him, right? ”
Li Guan raised his eyebrows and said confidently: "That's nature!" You also said that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the Meng family wants to gain a foothold in Yangzhou, they naturally have to deal with He Wentao. Liu Wentao is also a shrewd and sleek person, although he is not a traitorous minister, but he is not a gentleman. I'm not afraid to let you know that the Meng family does have a deal with him in private, but what does it matter? We have neither looted the people's fat and ointment, nor have we caused trouble to the people's livelihood, compared with the Jin family and the Jiang family, the Meng family is already very clean! ”
Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of the relationship between Ye Zicheng and Sikong Yuanzhen, and added: "Of course, I didn't mean to attack the Jiang family. Of all the giants, which one is clean? ”
Ye Zicheng smiled, didn't mind, and said, "Since you understand it in your heart, why don't you cooperate with Shen Guogong?" You said you don't trust Shen Guogong, do you trust Liu Wentao? ”
Li Guan was stunned and retorted: "I am plotting with Liu Wentao, and I naturally have a handle in my hand that can handle him, but what about Yu Fengyao?" I can show him a little bit of a face, what else can I do with him? ”
"No, you're far-fetched." Ye Zicheng shook his head, "There is a process for everything, did you know how to contain him when you first dealt with Liu Wentao?" ”
Li Wan said without thinking: "How can Liu Wentao be compared with Yu Fengyao? No matter how much he jumps, he is a prefect of Yangzhou, but Yu Fengyao is a high-powered Shen Guogong! ”
"Liu Wentao alone naturally can't be compared with Shen Guogong, but don't forget, he also has an uncle who is the elder of the cabinet!" Ye Zicheng hit the nail on the head.
Li Guan was stunned and speechless for a while.
Ye Zicheng sighed and said, "In the final analysis, you are too resistant to Shen Guogong...... Why don't you like him? Just because he caused you to lose your mother's relics? ”
Li Guan lowered his eyes, his face was as cold as ice: "What, do you think this reason is not enough?" ”
“…… I didn't mean that, it's just that the deceased is gone, and you ...... Alas, forget it......" Ye Zicheng picked up the teacup and drank tea, and said no more.
Someone picked up the curtain and walked in, it was Xun Fang, holding a plate of snacks in his hand.
"Miss, the kitchen has already ordered it to go down. The slave maid looked at the menu, Hui Niang has made a lot of effort today, planning to make eight hot dishes and six cold dishes, as well as a few small snacks! Today's dinner may be postponed a little, you and Mr. Ye, the third master, and the third young master should eat some walnut crisp first! Xun Fang said as she put the small plate of walnut crisp on the table.
Ye Zicheng drank tea quietly, Li Wan rubbed the jade bracelet on his wrist, and neither of them spoke.
Only then did Xun Fang realize that something was wrong.
"The slave maid went and asked the third master and the third young master if they wanted to eat walnut cake." She whispered, frowning and retreating.
The room was quiet, and the laughter of Dong Linzhi and Li Zhizhu came from the courtyard.
Ye Zicheng skimmed the foam with the tea lid and raised his eyes to look at Li Guan.
She lowered her head, her eyes were dazed, she didn't know what she was thinking, her pale lips were tightly pursed, and her face was white without any blood.
Ye Zicheng suddenly relented.
knew that she was such a character, and he shouldn't have forced her.
"Linzhi and your brother are very compatible!" He got up and walked to the window, looked at the lively scene in the courtyard and said with a smile, "Don't look at him smiling all day long, when he's unhappy, even the prince and princess are rare!" It's the first time I've seen him play with children so patiently! ”
Seeing him open the topic, Li Guan no longer held on, a little smile appeared on his face, and said, "He just likes to mess around!" ”
Ye Zicheng disagreed, and said, "Then why didn't I see him messing around with others?" Although Lin Zhi acted a little arrogant, after all, he was born in the princess's mansion, and not just anyone who came could make trouble with him. ”
He had something to say, Li Guan raised his eyebrows: "Say what you want to say, just say it, what kind of dumb riddle to play!" ”
Ye Zicheng sat back on the chair and said, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he likes you." ”
"I know, he told me a long time ago." Li Guan said, looking very casual.
Ye Zicheng observed her expression, pondered for a moment, and said: "Lin Zhi is the youngest son of Princess Chaoyang, who is deeply favored by Princess Chaoyang and the Empress Dowager. I heard Yuan Zhen say that the Queen Mother has already discussed with the emperor, and when he gets married, let him go to the Five Cities Terracotta Division to be a commander, and when he has a position, he will definitely be more stable than now......"
Li Guan took a piece of walnut crisp and ate it, nodding indifferently: "That's good." ”
Ye Zicheng saw that she didn't listen to his words at all, so he couldn't help but pause, and then said: "Linzhi's conditions are very good in all aspects, and the most important thing is that he is sincere and affectionate to you...... In my heart, he's a good choice, haven't you considered him at all? (To be continued.) )
