Chapter 112: Mention of Gangneung

"It's just a matter of effort." Zhou Jinghan replied lightly.

Zhou Chengyu asked again: "Recently, Bai Gongzi and Miss Su have been getting close, I don't know what the two are talking about?" ”

Soho didn't know what kind of mentality Zhou Chengyu was asking for, so he replied: "Bai Gongzi got a few good medicinal materials, and when he saw that I was interested in medical skills, he brought them to me." As he spoke, Soho also pointed to a bunch of medicinal herbs wrapped in yellow silk cloth on the table.

Zhou Chengyu glanced at it, he didn't care, but after he looked at it a few times, he was surprised.

"This is Hu Zhi?" Zhou Chengyu asked.

Seeing that Zhou Chengyu easily recognized it, Soho never expected it.

"The second prince also recognizes it, it is Hu Zhi, is the second prince also interested in medicinal materials?" Hu Zhi is an extremely rare medicine, mainly because there are very few diseases that can be cured with it, but they are also some rare diseases, so Hu Zhi will not be involved in general medical books, and Su Ho only vaguely remembers that it has been recorded in the secret book of Jiangling Sufu.

"Oh, I've only heard of it, and it's said that this medicine is very rare." Zhou Chengyu said.

"That's right, it's indeed extremely rare, but who did the second prince listen to?" Soho asked.

Zhou Chengyu's face was a little unnatural, it just smiled faintly, "It's just an ordinary imperial doctor, that person he treated the queen mother, and he mentioned it by the way, I also thought that the name of this medicine was pleasing to the ear, so I wrote it down, at that time he only took out a portrait of this medicine, this is really a real thing, I still see it for the first time." ”

It's obviously nonsense, and there are loopholes. Soho knew in his heart that if it weren't for the illness that needed this medicine, who would mention this? To see the queen, isn't it that the queen has a serious illness that is difficult to treat?

Soho felt more and more that Zhou Chengyu was weird, but he just looked at it lightly and didn't make any comments.

"It's really rare that Bai Gongzi can get this precious medicinal material." Zhou Chengyu looked at Zhou Jinghan and said.

Zhou Jinghan raised his eyebrows and was noncommittal, "It's just a medicine, as long as you want it, you can get it with a little effort, I don't know what the second prince wants to give Miss Su?" ”

Zhou Chengyu put down the mahogany box in his hand, and after opening it, there was a small jade box inside, the small jade box was delicate and lovely, the jade was warm and clear, especially the jade box buckle, which was a long-tailed swallow made of fine carving, pinching the swallowtail, you can open the box. Inside the box is a round pearl, under the background of green jade, the pearl is shiny, needless to say, the color is naturally good.

"Look at it, like it or not." Zhou Chengyu picked it up and handed it to Soho.

Although Soho has never been a fan of these gold, silver and jade objects, they really caught her eye.

She took it, and there was a warm and gentle feeling in the palm of her hand instantly, the pearl was inlaid at the bottom of the jade box, and she couldn't take it out.

"The workmanship is indeed exquisite, but this thing is too precious, I can't help it, the second prince should take it back." Soho handed it to Zhou Chengyu again.

Zhou Chengyu was a little unhappy when he saw Su He refuse, he put his hands behind his back and said, "If Miss Su refuses to ask for it, it will not give me face." ”

Su He hurriedly shook his head and said, "What kind of flower is this, second prince, how dare I not give you face?" It's so valuable, I'm just helping to come up with an idea, and I really don't need to reward me with such a valuable gift. ”

"I said that if you want it, you have to get it, you can get such a valuable medicinal material as Hu Zhi, why is this so bad?" Zhou Chengyu asked rhetorically, his tone was already a little unhappy.

Zhou Jinghan watched from the side, and spoke out at the right time, "Miss Su is different from ordinary people, let alone an ordinary woman, what she likes, the second prince is afraid that she hasn't figured it out yet." ”

As soon as Zhou Jinghan's words came out, Zhou Chengyu instantly felt faceless, doesn't this mean that the things he gave away are vulgar? In this way, although it is a priceless jade pearl box from the Western Regions, it seems to have lost its own value at this time.

Zhou Chengyu glanced at Zhou Jinghan, who just drank tea leisurely.

"It seems that Bai Gongzi knows Miss Su well enough." This sound strange, openly and secretly with a comparative meaning, Soho couldn't help frowning when she heard it, she didn't like this feeling very much.

Zhou Jinghan smiled, "I want to know more, but it's a pity that Miss Su didn't give me this opportunity, but it seems that I know more than the second prince." ”

I'm going to die, seeing that the atmosphere is getting more and more weird, Su He hurriedly stood up and played a round, "Bai Gongzi, don't laugh, you have been working with me to control the water these days, and you have brought so much food, I am naturally grateful to you," she turned her head to look at Zhou Chengyu again, "Second prince, since you gave me this, then I am disrespectful, so I will accept it, but I will ...... The second prince doesn't have to send it anymore. ”

Zhou Chengyu nodded, "Okay, since you don't like this, I'll give you something else in the future." ”

Soho pulled her lips apart and smiled, but she felt awkward and didn't have any gratitude.

"By the way, I have already sent someone to prepare wine and food, let's eat together, it can be regarded as a celebration banquet for the success of Jinzhou's water control, you two are great heroes, you can't help but go." Zhou Chengyu said.

Soho hasn't said anything yet, but Zhou Jinghan looks cheerful, "Okay, it's not too early anyway, it's better to be respectful, thank you for the kindness of the second prince." ”

Since Zhou Jinghan agreed, although Su Ho was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't say anything, and went with the two.

There were already many delicacies on the table, and when the three of them sat down, Fudo hurriedly poured wine.

"This is the emperor's personal appreciation of imperial wine." Zhou Chengyu said.

Soho tasted a glass with a respectful face, the entrance was sweet and mellow, and the aftertaste was curling, dissolving around the mouth, worthy of being a royal wine, so Soho also drank it all.

Zhou Jinghan also tasted it, but this kind of imperial wine emperor had already rewarded him many times, and he didn't feel how special and delicious it was when he drank it, and his reaction was faint.

After a few glasses of wine, the strength of the wine came up, and Soho felt a little dizzy, although the wine was delicious, but she still saved her mind and didn't dare to drink more.

Zhou Jinghan looked at Soho's slightly red face, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart, he was here, Soho was drunk and nothing, what if he wasn't there? The two of them are drinking together, what if they both drink too much? Zhou Jinghan suddenly felt that his decision to come to Jinzhou was extremely correct!

After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Chengyu said, "Now that the flood in Jinzhou has been successfully controlled, this is the boundary of the upstream area, and several places connected to the downstream are also correspondingly much lighter. ”

Hearing the word "Gangneung", Soho's hand still shook, and his head, which was a little dizzy, was much clearer.

"Jiangling and his party, Miss Su should also go, when the Jiangling flood is completely controlled, most of the Jiangnan flood will be solved, and you can go back to Beijing to resume your life, as for Bai Gongzi, I have tired you enough, and Jiangling and my party are not too bothering you." Zhou Chengyu said.

Zhou Jinghan raised his eyebrows, is this a change of law to drive him away? He smiled and said, "It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome at all, Jinzhou and Jiangling are also places where my business is thriving, and it will be good for me to help cure this place, besides, I am very close to Miss Su, and it would be great to stay for a few more days." ”

Zhou Chengyu really didn't want him to be here anymore, but seeing him say this, it was not good to say it directly, after all, he had no reason to do so.

Zhou Jinghan noticed Soho's abnormality and knew that Zhou Chengyu had just said that Jiangling was involved in her heart.

Soho lowered her head, her fingers kept rubbing the wine glass, and she didn't want to speak, because at this moment, she only felt as if her whole body was being oppressed, which made her breathless and very uncomfortable, and her throat was like a needle in her mouth, making it difficult for her to speak.

"Miss Su, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Chengyu also noticed Soho, so he asked.

Soho opened his mouth, and his voice became hoarse after a while, "I...... A little uncomfortable. ”

"What's wrong? It was fine just now. Zhou Chengyu looked a little anxious, so he stepped forward to check.

Zhou Jinghan also stood up and blocked in front of Zhou Chengyu, so that he couldn't touch Soho.

"She is not strong enough to drink, this appearance is normal, the second prince doesn't have to get up, I'll send her back." Zhou Jinghan said smoothly and naturally.

"This ...... It doesn't seem appropriate for Bai Gongzi to send Miss Su back, I'll still find a maid! Zhou Chengyu's words were also firm, Fuduo also had the foresight, and when he heard Zhou Chengyu say this, he trotted to find two maids to come and help Soho leave.

In addition to Fuduo in the house, only Zhou Jinghan and Zhou Chengyu remained.

The atmosphere is a little weird, the two of them have a match or not, Zhou Chengyu is mostly dissatisfied and unwilling in his heart, dissatisfied with this Bai Renqing businessman, he does not have the slightest fear and respect for himself, unwilling is that such a cash cow can't be used for himself, it's a pity.

He also asked people to investigate this Bai Renqing, there are many mysteries about this person, whether it is from the beginning to today's great achievements, there are very few deeds about him, and no one can find out where he comes from and where he lives, but there is indeed this person on the rivers and lakes, somehow, before the change, even if Zhou Chengyu can't take people for his own use, he will have a way to destroy the people who come and occupy all its property, but this time is different, from the beginning he germinated this idea, he had a chill, and his intuition told him, This Bai Renqing can't be touched!

Zhou Jinghan drank the last glass of wine, then stood up and arched his hand and said, "The second prince, it seems that he has drunk too much, and he is afraid that he will lose his temper and collide with the second prince after drinking for a while, so he also retreated." ”

Zhou Chengyu retracted his thoughts and said with a smile, "Since this is the case, I won't force you to stay, go back and rest." ”

When Zhou Jinghan went out, he naturally did not go to his own house, but turned around and went directly to Soho.
