Chapter 20 Marriage Proposal

"What? The officials just punished the county lord for half a year, and let the lord make meritorious service! In a vast courtyard in Hukou County, Zhang Youde was sitting at the table having lunch, and his eyes showed a shocked look after listening to the report of a government official who came to report the news next to him.

In his opinion, with the disaster caused by Wang San in Baishui Town, even if Li Yuntian did not lose his official position and resign, then he should be demoted, and he did not expect that the matter would be solved so calmly.

"The little one inquired about the entourage of Lord Tongzhi, and it seems that a Lord Yang in the cabinet wrote a letter to Lord Zhixian." The official thought for a moment and said.

Yang ...... Lord Yang! Zhang Youde's face changed suddenly when he heard this, he had a certain understanding of the current situation in the capital, and he knew that only Yang Shiqi was surnamed Yang among the cabinet elders.

At this moment, he finally understood why Li Yuntian was not severely punished by the imperial court, it was obvious that Yang Shiqi secretly helped, he never imagined that Li Yuntian would have such a tough backstage.

"Quick, inform Lu Dianshi and ask him to hurry up and prepare a thousand taels of silver to send to the Baishui Town Inspection Division." After being stunned, Zhang Youde came back to his senses and ordered the official repeatedly, "Sue him and let him send someone to send him in the afternoon!" ”

After explaining the officer, Zhang Youde got up and walked out of the door, where did he still have the heart to eat now, so he hurried to the county government to work, and arranged some things that Li Yuntian explained some time ago.

"Interesting!" Almost at the same time, Wang Yu, who was also eating lunch, also learned the news, smiled and drank all the liquor in the wine glass in his hand, he really didn't see that Li Yuntian had such a big background.

"I didn't expect him to be Lord Yang's person!" Zhao Lang's news was slower than Wang Yu and Zhang Youde, he was reading a book in the study, and heard about Li Yuntian's affairs from his subordinates, frowning and muttering to himself, his words were full of envy and jealousy.

Originally, Wang Yu, Zhao Lang, Zhang Youde and others were waiting in the county office, ready to congratulate Li Yuntian, but after waiting for a long time, a news came that Li Yuntian and Han Anyu left the county seat and didn't know where they went.

On the official road leading from the county seat of Hukou County to Baishui Town, more than a dozen big men rode horses and guarded a carriage.

"Haha, Master Li is a young talent, and Miss Chen is a match made in heaven, if they can come together, it will become a good story in the future, this matchmaker is Baoding." In the carriage, after listening to Li Yuntian's account of the matter between him and Chen Ningning, Han Anyu said with a smile.

Li Yuntian went out of the city this time to pull Han Anyu to propose marriage to Chen Bozhao, Han Anyu is a dignified official, and if he is a matchmaker, it can be said that Chen Bozhao has enough face.

Han Anyu is very happy to do this, since Li Yuntian asked him to be a matchmaker, it means that he is not jealous of him because of the matter of the water bandits in Baishui Town, why not do it.

Whitewater Town, the back house of the Chen family.

"Master, Ning'er hasn't eaten rice for a few days, and she only drank some water during the period, she has been stubborn since she was a child, I'm afraid she won't bow her head lightly, I think she is sincere to the county lord, you just raise your hand and let her go with the county lord."

A richly dressed middle-aged woman entered the study with red eyes and said to Chen Bozhao, who was sitting behind the desk and pulling an abacus to settle accounts.

The middle-aged woman is Chen Bozhao's wife Feng Wanyun, who has been on hunger strike since Chen Ningning was arrested and returned to Chen's house that day.

"A woman's opinion!" Chen Bozhao slapped the abacus on the table and looked at Feng Wanyun dissatisfied, "You think I'm angry with her?" I'm thinking about the happiness of the rest of her life, the surname Li is going to be unlucky, she doesn't know how much suffering she will suffer, the long pain is better than the short pain, I am now for her good. ”

"Master, is the county lord really going to fall?" Feng Wanyun had a good impression of Li Yuntian, and asked tentatively when she heard this.

"This time the incident is so big, and he doesn't know how to take all the responsibility down, he will definitely be guilty of the crime, and he will be demoted to the slightest official, and he will be imprisoned for heavy responsibility, and he will be beheaded if he doesn't do well." Chen Bozhao nodded, with a look of annoyance in his eyes.

If he knew that Li Yuntian was so stupid and stubborn and didn't know how to be an official, he wouldn't have gotten on the pole to tie up Li Yuntian, but as a result, stealing chickens and rice would not make it a fool, not only Li Yuntian was about to fall, but even Chen Ningning was compensated, making him completely a joke in Baishui Town.

"What about Ning'er now?" Feng Wanyun felt that what Chen Bozhao said was reasonable, she didn't want Chen Ningning to suffer with Li Yuntian, but she was worried about Chen Ningning, if Chen Ningning continued like this, her body would be unbearable, and she would be in danger.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll ask the person surnamed Li and let him break Ning'er's thoughts." Chen Bozhao had a headache, Chen Ningning grew up watching him, and once he was stubborn, he didn't have much to do.

The so-called heart disease still needs heart medicine, and the bell needs to be tied to the bell, since Li Yuntian is the source, then only Li Yuntian can free Chen Ningning from it.

Thinking of this, Chen Bozhao couldn't help but hate Li Yuntian, in his opinion, if it weren't for Li Yuntian's dead face pestering Chen Ningning, Chen Ningning would not have a deep affection for him, completely forgetting that it was he who asked Chen Ningning to lead Li Yuntian over with the sound of the piano, and he was actually the initiator.

"Master, what will Ning'er do in the future?" Feng Wanyun felt that this was a solution, but Chen Ningning's reputation would definitely be ruined after this incident, and it would be difficult to find a good family to marry.

"What else can I do? Marry out of town! Chen Bozhao stood up angrily and walked towards the door.

"Master, why are you going?" Seeing this, Feng Wanyun couldn't help but ask.

"Go to the county office, if it's too late, maybe the surname Li will be sent to prison." Chen Bozhao said as he walked, after all, he still felt sorry for Chen Ningning in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't lick his face to see Li Yuntian.

"Master, Lord Tongzhi and Lord Zhixian are here." Before Chen Bozhao could walk to the door, a family member ran in in a panic.

"Tongzhi-sama is here too?" Chen Bozhao was slightly stunned, looking quite surprised, Li Yuntian was a little abnormal when he came to Baishui Town at this time, plus Han Anyu, could it be that something big happened?

"Two adults in the front hall of the front yard." The man nodded.

"Quick, change my clothes." Chen Bozhao was puzzled by the purpose of Li Yuntian and Han Anyu's visit, but he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Feng Wanyun to change him into the formal clothes he wore when he was a guest.

When Chen Bozhao hurried to the living room in the front yard, Li Yuntian and Han Anyu were talking and laughing there, which made his eyes flash with a look of surprise.

If he remembered correctly, Han Anyu's attitude towards Li Yuntian last time was very indifferent.

"Gong Chen, this official came to be a matchmaker this time, Master Li and Miss Chen are talented and beautiful, it is a match made in heaven, I hope Chen Gong can fulfill them." Seeing that Chen Bozhao was coming, Han Anyu got up and said with a smile.

Chen Bozhao didn't expect Han Anyu to be so polite to him and call him "Chen Gong", he was in a daze, and suddenly heard the words behind him, and immediately looked at Li Yuntian on the side in surprise: If Han Anyu came to protect the media, wouldn't it mean that Li Yuntian had already escaped from the incident in Baishui Town?

"Chen Gong rest assured, this official will definitely not lose Miss." Li Yuntian stood up and arched his hand to Chen Bozhao and said loudly.

"Two adults, you see this is a coincidence, the little girl doesn't think about tea and dinner for Lord Li these days, and it is difficult to sleep and eat, and the villain is preparing to go to the county government to propose to Lord Li with a cheeky face, but the two adults will come." Chen Bozhao reacted at this time, and said to Li Yuntian and Han Anyu with a smile, with excitement on his face that could not be concealed.

At this moment, he could already be sure that Li Yuntian had escaped, and from Han Anyu's attitude towards Li Yuntian, he vaguely felt that something must have happened that he didn't know.

After exchanging a few words with Li Yuntian and Han Anyu, Chen Bozhao led Li Yuntian to visit Chen Ningning in the backyard, but Han Anyu was inconvenient to go over, so he stayed in the hall and drank tea.

At the door of the two-story building where Chen Ningning lived, two five big and three thick family members guarded her to prevent her from escaping.

When Li Yuntian entered the small building, Chen Bozhao waved his hand to the two family members, and the two family members walked away, and now there was no need for them to stay here.

In an elegant room on the second floor, Li Yuntian saw Chen Ningning, Chen Ningning was lying on ** with her hair scattered, her face was pale, her eyes were closed, her lips were chapped, and her face was haggard.

This made his heart hurt slightly, but he didn't expect Chen Ningning to torture himself like this for his hunger strike.

"Ning'er, Master Li has come to see you." Chen Bozhao walked to the side and said in Chen Ningning's ear.

Chen Ningning slowly opened her eyes when she heard this, first glanced at Chen Bozhao, and then her eyes fell on Li Yuntian, who was standing aside with a smile, and her eyes flashed with a light of surprise.

"The little woman hasn't freshened up yet, please wait downstairs for a while." Then she thought of something, and quickly turned her head, reaching out to cover her cheeks with the long hair on her forehead, not wanting Li Yuntian to see her haggard appearance now.

Li Yuntian smiled when he saw this, and came downstairs with Chen Bozhao, and the two sat there chatting casually.

Chen Bozhao now very much wants to know what happened to Li Yuntian, but judging from the current situation, it should be a good thing, he can't open his mouth to ask, so he can only suppress this curiosity in his heart.

"The little girl meets the adult." After a while, Chen Ningning, who had been freshened and dressed, slowly came down from the upstairs with the support of the two maid rings, and after coming to Li Yuntian, she let the two maid rings loose and blessed Li Yuntian.

"Miss is unwell, so there is no need to be polite." Li Yuntian saw that she was weak, so he quickly got up and helped her to sit on the chair beside her.

"Lord County, the villain went to see if the porridge in the kitchen was ready." Chen Bozhao knew that the two of them must have something to say, so he led the two girls away with interest, and at the same time went to find out what happened.
