Chapter Fifty-Eight: Get to Know Each Other
After solving the problem of food and clothing, the two of them went to find the place that Gongzi said, both of them were a little unfamiliar with this place for the first time, and they walked for a long time to find it.
They stopped in front of the door of a household, Leng Yan hesitated and raised his hand to knock on the door, but after knocking several times, there was no movement inside, Leng Yan glanced at Leng Yu and raised his hand to continue knocking, only a voice came from far away.
"Wait." A crisp girl's voice came from behind the door, Leng Yan raised his eyebrows and whistled at Leng Yu, Leng Yu glanced at him, the door creaked open, revealing the face of a young girl inside, very cute, Leng Yan immediately felt that this must be his brother and daughter-in-law. In line with the idea of striking first, Leng Yan rushed to the little girl with a haha.
"Hello, may I ask if Mr. Wang is there, we are old friends of Mr., surnamed Ye."
The little girl glanced at Leng Yan suspiciously, said a little and then retreated. After the little girl left, Leng Yu couldn't help but dislike Leng Yan and said, "Brother, can you be more reserved." ”
Leng Yan was unhappy when he heard this: "Little white-eyed wolf, brother is looking for a candidate for you, you know a fart." ”
Leng Yu replied helplessly: "What are you looking for?" What the candidate. ”
"Your future wife, is it possible that you want to stay in Yeming Mansion for the rest of your life."
Leng Yu: "......." ”
———
The little girl poked her face out of the crack in the door, and turned back and forth on Leng Yan and Leng Yu with puzzled eyes, before leaning back and opening the door. The little girl is also a teenager, very petite and lovely, and her voice is good.
"Sir, please come in, come with me." The little girl took the two of them in, and along the way, Leng Yan took a look at the yard and found that the house was not very big, but there were many things, everything, except for a small river in the courtyard, almost everything else was occupied.
The girl led them to a small courtyard and stopped: "Sir is there, go yourself." ”
Leng Yan and Leng Yu hurriedly said hello, the little girl left, and the two walked into the courtyard, and there was a middle-aged man standing in the middle of the courtyard, the man was wearing a long shirt, his long hair was tied, and he was full of scholarly taste.
Leng Yan and Leng Yu both bowed to the old gentleman, and the gentleman smiled back at them
"You were sent by His Royal Highness."
Leng Yan and Leng Yu glanced at each other, and their hearts were really understanding, Leng Yan stepped forward and said, "Exactly, His Highness asked me to take one thing." ”
The old gentleman smiled, and didn't mean to come up with anything, Leng Yan was puzzled and was about to ask again, but the old gentleman opened his mouth: "Don't worry, it's not that the old man refuses to give it to you, it's just that this thing is not here with me now." ”
Leng Yan raised his eyebrows, it was difficult for this old guy to lose something, and sure enough, I saw the old gentleman fold the fan open, and said a little sadly: "That thing is now in the hands of Wen Luo who is upstairs in the moon, you are afraid that you are going to go upstairs to the moon!" ”
Leng Yan and Leng Yu didn't react much when they heard this, they just sighed to each other, and just said that they wouldn't cause trouble, but they came to the door by themselves.
The old gentleman looked at the posture of the two young heroes and thought that these two people were confident, and went upstairs as if they were in a no-man's land, so he hurriedly admired these two people.
Now that things have changed hands, there is no reason for the two of them to rub it any longer, and the moonlight is good tonight, which is a good weather to climb over the wall.
Before leaving, Leng Yan still felt that he couldn't come in vain, so he leaned over and asked the little girl's name, the little girl glanced at him and hurriedly walked away in disgust, but in the end he still told, "My name is Wang Ziling." ”
Leng Yan was vigorously shut out of the door, and he didn't forget to praise the little girl's name
"Well, that's good. This name is really good, hey, do you like it, I like my brother to prepare a dowry for you, and I will marry this little girl in two years. ”
Leng Yan hit Leng Yu's shoulder with his arm, but Leng Yu ignored him and walked straight to the inn, while sighing in his heart that his brother was hopeless.

Du Yan was stunned for a moment and then glanced at her face in an instant, she didn't know why, she always felt that Xiao Yechen meant something.
"Your Highness's idea is also quite beautiful."
Xiao Yechen smiled and was silent.
"Did Master Du tell you something?"
Du Yan looked up: "What?" ”
Xiao Yechen pondered: "Will Master Du tell you something about the court?" ”
Du Yan thought for a while and said, "Generally, not." ”
"What about the last few days, did you mention anything?"
"Nope. What happened? ”
"Yes..., Master Du reported to the emperor a proposal for the management of the merchants, and he wanted to move his family to the south."
Du Yan looked at Xiao Yechen fiercely, her eyes widened in disbelief, her father was the prime minister of the dynasty, his position in the imperial city was basically the largest, and his right hand was also in the imperial city, her father was actually moving to the south, wouldn't that be equivalent to leaving his sphere of influence?
"My father can't do that, he's been living in the Imperial City since he became an official, how can he leave here?"
Xiao Yechen turned around and looked at Du Yan and said, "I also think it's impossible, but the thing is true." ”
Xiao Yechen looked at Du Yan fixedly, it was difficult for Du Yan to believe it or not, Xiao Yechen didn't need to make up this reason to deceive her.
"Why did my dad ......?"
"I want to know too."
Du Yan looked at Xiao Yechen and asked, "Did you find something?" Or what did you hear? ”
Xiao Yechen sat by the wall and slowly shook his head and said, "No." But I guess that Master Du's sudden change must be related to Aunt He's death. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Someone wants to stir up the relationship between the Prime Minister's Mansion and his father."
Du Yan only felt chills all over her body after listening to Xiao Yechen's speech, how could this be, how could someone be eyeing the Prime Minister's Mansion? If the Du Mansion suffers a major change, then several other prestige families will also take action.
"What about the other party above the court, it's impossible for my father to pass this proposal after saying it."
Xiao Yechen nodded to Du Yan comfortingly and said, "That's right, when Prime Minister Du Cheng finished saying this in the court, there were a lot of opposing voices, and there were also a lot of words of power, I can't tell the difference, but——"
"But what!"
"But the one who has the most power to speak here is General An, the old general of the Zhenbei General's Mansion."
Xiao Yechen didn't say the name of that person, Du Yan already knew, it was actually the General's Mansion, was it really his grandfather? But why is this, the An family has always had no quarrel with the world and only did their own things, when did the An family also participate in these intrigues?
Du Yan opened her mouth, with a faint uneasiness in her tone: "The General's Mansion will never do such a thing." ”
Xiao Yechen patted Du Yan's shoulder comfortingly and said, "I believe you." ”
