Chen Luo was stunned.

Oh, yes! Why didn't he dare to ask his uncle where the incense from the Qianqing Palace came from? Why didn't he dare to ask his uncle directly where the silver from the Tianjin Wei dockyard went? Why didn't he dare to directly pull a doctor to check his uncle's pulse?

Because his uncle is not an ordinary person.

His uncle was the emperor first, and then his uncle.

Chen Luo struck the top like lightning, and even shivered.

He is not even as good as Wang Xi, who has never been in and out of the court and only walks around the inner house.

With such a clear and clear answer, in order to get a little warmth in his heart, he actually chose to cover his ears and steal the bell and turn a blind eye.

Or is this why he can't do anything well?

The shackles that can be broken with a slight twist, he is cocooning himself without knowing it.

Chen Luo subconsciously straightened his back, as if in this way, he could hold up his small piece of sky.

"Miss Wang is right." He said in a low voice, his voice was heavy, but he was not depressed, but a little down-to-earth and calm, "I have to think about this matter carefully." It's just a follow-up, I'm afraid I have to ask the Wang family to help run. ”

Wang Xi endured it before swallowing the yawn, waving his hand and saying vaguely: "Since I helped you, I won't lose my trust easily." Don't worry, your business is our Wang family's business, I can't do it, I will ask my eldest brother to come forward, in short, I won't let you down. ”

Otherwise, wouldn't the initial investment be wasted?

Wouldn't her oath in front of her eldest brother become a joke?

Wang Xi didn't know how she got back to the house in a daze, but she only remembered the moment of comfort when she fell into the soft futon after falling, which made her sigh quietly, and soon fell asleep sweetly again, not knowing what she said or what Chen Luo said.

When she got up the next day, she looked at the dewdrops on a newly planted lilac hydrangea in the flower goblet, and then she vaguely remembered that she seemed to have seen Chen Luo in the middle of the night last night.

She hurriedly asked Baizhu, who was serving her to change clothes, "Did Master Chen come yesterday?" I'm not saying if he came in the evening, I'm asking him if he came again in the middle of the night? ”

Bai Shu nodded with a smile and said, "While talking to Lord Chen, Miss is still dozing off like a chicken pecking rice, and I don't know how to talk to Lord Chen." ”

It's interesting to think about.

Wang Xi's face darkened.

Her eldest brother had warned her more than once that she should never talk to others when her mind was not clear, lest she say promises that she could not fulfill and harm others and herself.

"And what did I say yesterday?" She hurriedly asked.

Bai Zhi, who was combing her hair next to her, interjected with a smile: "You drove us aside, and we didn't hear it very clearly. I only know that you promised Lord Chen that you would help him no matter what happened, and asked Lord Chen not to worry, saying that Lord Chen 'doesn't know the true face of Lushan, only because he is in this mountain', and also said that Lord Chen is 'caring is chaotic', if it changes you, you are afraid that you will not be able to see through. ”

Bai Zhu helped Bai Zhi open the makeup box, asked Wang Xi to choose the hairpin to be inserted today, and answered with a smile: "You also praise Lord Chen for being affectionate and righteous, so he can't see through it." Otherwise, if you change to a suspicious person, you would have gone to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies happily, where would you care about your uncle's life or death? Let Lord Chen rest assured for the time being, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and he can't eat hot rice balls in a hurry. Let's see how others react before we talk about it. ”

Wang Xi couldn't help but cover his face.

What is she talking about?

But she also slowly remembered Chen Luo's face that grew everywhere on her liking, but was sad under the bright moon.

She didn't want to admit that eight or nine times out of ten she was mistaken by beauty, she felt that she should sympathize with Chen Luo's lack of family.

"I really said such a thing to Lord Chen last night?" She struggled, knowing that it was futile but still asked without giving up, "I shouldn't be so stupid, right?" ”

There was silence in the house.

Now Wang Xi doesn't want to bury his head in the sand, so he has to bury it!

*

Chen Luo's side, after returning to Lu Mingxuan, he didn't sleep all night.

He stood by the window lattice and looked at the main courtyard of the eldest princess's mansion and the east side where the prince of Zhenguo was located, until the east turned white and the red candle burned out, and then he tiredly said to Chen Yu, who had also accompanied him all night: "Tell the little servant to fetch water and come in!" It's time for me to change my clothes and go to court. ”

Chen Yu went out respectfully, but tears couldn't help but fall.

Their adults live too hard.

Who doesn't know that Zhen Guogong is eccentric!

Since you want Chen Ying to inherit the Zhenguo Mansion so much, why do you want Princess Shang? Who doesn't know that the son of a princess cannot be subservient. Those who want to be a princess, in order to ensure the orderliness of the eldest and youngest concubines, who will let the eldest son go to Princess Shang? They all took the second son or the youngest son to marry.

Zhen Guogong is such a shrewd person, how can he not know how powerful this is?

Don't say anything about the emperor's marriage. If it weren't for the prince of Zhenguo to get in front of the emperor, would the emperor give marriage?

And even if the emperor can't refuse to give marriage, the eldest princess doesn't have to go to the front of Zhenguo Gong, he can be polite and be a superficial husband and wife to each other, why do you want to give birth to their family?

It's not that I want to please the emperor, I want the eldest princess to stay in the Zhenguo Mansion with peace of mind and strive for benefits for the Zhenguo Mansion.

The more Chen Yu thought about it, the more angry he became, and felt that Zhen Guogong was like those people in the market who said, "If you are a, you have to build a memorial arch", and you want to get benefits, but you don't want to pay the price.

But in this way, you can manage Chen Ying well, and let Chen Yingwen Tao Wu strategy, it is okay to suppress the adults of their family. On the surface, he was humble and polite to their family, but behind his back, he wished that their family was a mud that could not be supported by the wall, and he did not come out of his way, let his sister give him a head, no matter what Chen Jue's reputation was, he just wanted to have a good reputation of being polite and humble.

There is no more incompetent and ruthless brother than him.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu's mood actually improved inexplicably.

If the adults in their family encounter such a thing, they will not let others give him a head, and they will hide behind and benefit and pretend that they have nothing to do with themselves.

This is also the reason why his father looks down on Chen Ying and prefers to follow Chen Luo.

Chen Ying has no responsibility.

Zhen Guogong is not a good person either.

Now it is too much to block the way of their family adults and let them give concessions to Chen Ying.

Chen Yu fetched water and came in, instructing the little servant to serve Chen Luo to change clothes, but he circled around Chen Luo, turning Chen Luo's head unconscious, and had to ask him: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, be careful that I will never be able to open your mouth." ”

Chen Yu smiled hesitantly and said, "If you go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to do a job, wouldn't Grandpa Guo be able to help the uncle ask for the prince, why is Grandpa Guo unhappy and let you resign from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies?" ”

"Because he is cowardly and incompetent." Chen Luo was still thinking about Wang Xi's words, and had no intention of covering up for his father, and said perfunctorily, "Everyone else thought that my father asked Chen Ying to be the son of the world, but the emperor didn't agree." In fact, he has never asked the court to be crowned the prince, and he has never talked to the emperor about this matter head-on, does he want the emperor to take the initiative to ask him who he wants to appoint as the prince? ”

Chen Yu thought about it, it was true.

The grandfather of the country has never formally asked the court to be crowned a prince, and of course the emperor is willing to drag it out like this, so that their family members can inherit the title.

But Chen Luo was different, after he said this, his whole person froze.

What would he do if he were the emperor?

Wang Xi's words yesterday asked him to consider things from the other party's standpoint. It's like their family is in business, if they don't know what the person who buys something wants, how can they sell it?

Chen Luo thought of Wang Xi's naïve appearance when he fell asleep yesterday, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a slight smile, and his heart seemed to be a lot lighter.

But this mood didn't last long, and he thought of thinking about his promotion according to the method Wang Xi said, but it made him shudder.

If he is the emperor......

Chen Luo took a deep breath and said, "Go to court!" ”

Chen Yu glanced at him in surprise.

The voices of the adults in their family were too cold, their expressions were too grim, and their expressions were too solemn, as if they were going to war instead of going to court.

In the past, there were times when the adults of their family were reluctant to go to court, and there were times when they looked bad, but they have never been so murderous as now, which makes people feel scared at a glance.

Didn't you say that the emperor was going to promote the official of their family? That must be very fond of their family, why do they still look like this?

Chen Yu couldn't think through, so he walked out quickly with the puzzle in his heart, and began to arrange Chen Luo's trip.

Wang Xi received a letter from Shuzhong.

In addition to the advice and greetings of her parents and second brother, there are also the land deeds and a box of pearls sent by her grandmother.

The pearl is to thank Wang Xi for copying the Buddhist scriptures for her, and the title deed is for Haitao.

Wang Xiyu, who was ordered to go to the big shopkeeper to get the letter, said to her with a little urgency: "Lao An said that her old man was worried about where to buy a piece of land for you as a dowry, and I heard that you have taken a fancy to Sigu Mountain. This is good, in order to make up the number of the land deeds that were thrown to her old man's house, her old man just threw off this burden, and the mountain of your marriage was also solved, so she didn't need her old man to pay out private money to subsidize your dowry. These mountains are your own, and you can do whatever you want! ”

Grandmother is still as funny as ever, Wang Xi couldn't cry or laugh, wrote a coquettish letter back, and then asked Wang Xi to take the title deed to Zhenwu Temple, and said: "Finally solved one thing." ”

Wang Xi smiled and promised, and went to Zhenwu Temple.

Wang Xi opened the window, sat on the big kang near the window, and watched the pile of beads in the bright afternoon sunshine.

There was nothing bad about what her grandmother had sent.

The pearls in this box are almost the size of lotus seeds, pearlescent, warm and lovely.

Bai Guo gave her an idea: "Why don't you string a beaded shirt and wear it when you go to Miss 6's house?" ”

Wang Xi has a lot of jewelry, this box of pearls is very rare in the eyes of others, and in Wang Xi's hands, some don't know what to do.

She pursed her lips when she heard this, and said, "What kind of beaded shirt, I'm not an old lady anymore, leave a few for me to play, and the rest will reward a few of you to make a headband and put it on." ”

Bai Guo and others often get rewards from Wang Xi here, and they also know that Wang Xi doesn't value these very much, and when they get such a good pearl, they all smile happily, and they come forward to thank Wang Xi, saying flattering words, but it is not yet the time of the New Year, but it is already as lively as the New Year.

When Chang Yan stepped into the willow shade garden, she saw such a scene.
