"Sir, rest assured, they will come as promised."

It would be a fool not to make money if there was gold, even if he used the power of the famine, Thomas would have to pull the entire mission to Jinling.

After the two had finished talking, they talked about some European anecdotes, and when they had swept away the food and drinks, they were ready to go their separate ways.

When Thomas was leaving, he deliberately left a precious pocket watch, hoping to use it as a gift to witness the friendship between the two.

At this time, in front of the Tongze Inn, a brand-new and luxurious carriage was parked, which attracted the attention of many people.

Of course, what is more eye-catching is Bai Ying, who is dressed in an ice blue dress and combs her hair in a hanging bun, which looks both immature and very cute.

The innkeeper ordered Xiao Er to carry the goods to the car, and reported the progress to her: "Miss Yu, according to your instructions, all the things have been loaded into the car." ”

Bai Ying bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work, when I return to Jinling, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of my father." ”

The innkeeper hurriedly refused: "The eldest lady can't help it, the villain can serve you, which is really a blessing accumulated in the previous life." ”

At this time, a small servant came to the street in a hurry, whispered a few words in the ear of the innkeeper, and hurried away.

"Is something wrong?" Bai Ying saw that the boss's face was very bad, and thought that something had happened.

The innkeeper said: "Back to the eldest lady, I just sent someone to report, the gate of the Zhennan Wangfu is closed, and it seems that he is preparing for a sacrifice." ”

Bai Ying thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, then I will change my original plan and not visit the King of Zhennan, so as not to be contaminated with bad luck." ”

"This ...... I'm afraid this is inappropriate, the owner once sent someone to deliver the letter, in all the shops in Yanjing, whenever you see the eldest lady appearing, you must persuade her to take the marriage as the priority, even if it is tied up, I hope you understand. ”

The innkeeper is very embarrassed, and now no matter which party he offends, he will become a person inside and out.

However, the anger of the owner, he is a small boss who can't bear it, and he can only choose to live with the eldest lady at present.

"Listen to you, it's better for me to go, otherwise the old man will definitely get angry."

Bai Ying felt very helpless, her little arms couldn't twist her thighs after all, and her father's order was more effective than the holy decree.

What's more, in ancient times, marriage was all decided by parents, and unless the father-daughter relationship was severed, there was no escape from the fate of being arranged.

At the same time, Chen Ze walked over with a smile on his face, holding a folding fan he had just bought, and said hello as if no one was around.

"The apprentice has seen the master, your appearance today is as beautiful as a fairy, you must be ready to see the Xianggong."

"Little Nizi, see if I don't tear your mouth!"

Bai Ying's face turned red, and she jumped off the car in an instant, like an eagle in the sky, about to catch a rabbit running around.

Chen Ze panicked, and said as he retreated: "Don't be rude!" I'm just joking, it's time for us to go. ”

"Alas......" Bai Ying suddenly stopped and sighed, her eyes revealing a sadness.

Chen Ze didn't know what to do, and asked: "Master, if there is anything difficult, just say it, and I will help you figure out a way together." ”

Bai Ying looked at the apprentice lovingly, and said with a sour heart: "My father arranged for me to get married, so I have to visit the man." ”

Of course, she was able to meet the man once before marriage, which is really a lucky woman.

Because in ancient society, there were many women who spent candle nights in the cave room before they could officially meet their husbands.

"This ...... Isn't this an arranged marriage? ”

Chen Ze was very angry, he couldn't imagine that the ancient people were so pedantic, they didn't even care about their daughter's happiness, and only cared about their immediate interests.

However, it is difficult for even the royal family to jump out of this circle, and it is even more difficult for ordinary people to do it.

Bai Ying pursed her lips and said sadly: "My father's order cannot be violated, I must go and see him." ”

"It's all nonsense, I'll take you to find that man, I don't believe that there is no royal law in the world."

Chen Ze's heart was very excited, and he wished that he could have a knife in his hand so that he could chop that shit.

It must be some obscene-looking, money-greedy and lustful rich kid who fell in love with the master's appearance and family business, and tried to use marriage to satisfy his selfish desires.

Such a mercenary person should be tied to a pillar with a thousand cuts, and then salt his wounds, and finally taken to the moat to be washed.

The innkeeper sneered, blew a cool breeze next to him and said: "Little girl, before you say big things, you must weigh yourself first, the eldest lady is married to the king of Zhennan, and she will be a princess in the future." ”

"It turned out to be the bastard of King Zhennan!"

Chen Ze was angry, and his brain didn't filter what the boss said, so he opened his mouth and scolded himself.

At this moment, the innkeeper and Bai Ying were stunned, there were people in the world who dared to scold the prince on the street, wouldn't they be tired of being crooked.

At this time, even the people passing by were frightened by this voice, and they all looked at this bold 'little girl'.

As soon as the words came out, Chen Ze reacted, and immediately said embarrassedly: "Fang Cai's words are purely a slip of the tongue, and the Zhen Nanxiang I said is actually a person's name." ”

At this time, you must pretend to be stupid, otherwise the people may rush up to the palace in order to reward the silver, and arrest the people who scolded the prince and send them to the government.

It turned out that she had misheard, Bai Ying was almost scared out of illness, and she thought that her apprentice was really not afraid of death.

After Chen Ze forcibly explained, he asked again: "Master, I heard that the king of Zhennan is married to Miss Gu, but why is your surname Bai!" ”

The matter has come to this, no matter how much Bai Ying wants to hide it, it is useless: "My real name is Gu Linghuan, don't tell me." ”

The ancients said that thousands of miles of marriage were tied by a thread, perhaps it was fateful fate that arranged the two together.

Chen Ze's heart was both excited and lost. The excitement is that the woman I like is my fiancée, and the loss is that I rely on this means to get someone, which is really disgraceful.

At this moment, Gu Linghuan was very confused, how did the apprentice know about such a little-known marriage.

So she immediately asked, "Rou'er, where did you hear that King Zhennan is going to marry Miss Gu?" ”

It's a lie again, but for someone, it's as simple as eating.

Chen Ze thought about it again and again, and suddenly had an idea: "Don't hide it from the master, I have a maid named Li Xiang, who once served the prince in the Zhennan Palace, and now lives in the inn." ”

Gu Linghuan immediately glanced at the innkeeper, meaning to ask him if this sentence was true.

The innkeeper frowned, and then spoke: "No wonder that girl has a good temperament, it turns out that she is someone from the side of King Zhennan." ”

Chen Ze added: "Li Xiang was tortured first because he angered the housekeeper of the palace, and then he was expelled from the palace, and then he became my maid. ”

The matter has been explained so clearly, if the other party still does not believe it, he can only admit the truth.
