Chapter 439: A Change of Face
Tang Chengen was shocked and hurriedly got off the ground to put on his shoes, "Why don't you welcome Mrs. in!" ”
After speaking, the housekeeper immediately took the order to trot all the way to the gate of the Xiangfu, and respectfully welcomed the Cheng family in, this kind of respect was even more serious than when the Cheng family was in charge of the backyard before, although the Cheng family had prestige in the Xiangfu before, but he couldn't control the head of the housekeeper.
On the contrary, the housekeeper is the most trusted person around Tang Chengen, sometimes the Cheng family has to look at his face, but now it is different, just a few words that Cheng said just now are enough to prove that the fate of the entire Tang family is now in her hands.
Tang Chengen saw Cheng come in, changed the displeasure on his face before and hurriedly greeted him, "Hey, Madame is back, after you go back to your mother's house, I really can't help but send someone to chase after you, how do you know that there are so many people on the street, these wastes have not been able to find your trace of Madame, fortunately, you are back safe and sound now, otherwise how would it be good to call me!" ”
Cheng sneered in his heart, can't he catch up with his own footsteps, don't you know where the door of the Cheng family is going? It's a pity that she has been concentrating on taking care of the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, and in the end she can't even hear a lie that goes off her heart.
I thought that according to Cheng's temperament, he would directly say how noble and difficult he was, and then scolded Tang Chengen, and finally ended with how powerful the Cheng family was and how powerful the Xiangfu was.
At this time, Tang Chengen was ready to scold and not return the scold, but who knew that Cheng didn't speak for a long time after listening to it, her white thin fingers gently pulled the hat of the cloak and then slowly took it off, the whole action was gentle and not like words, especially when the gentle eyebrows and eyes inside were revealed, Tang Chengen who was watching was stunned in place.
Is this still his wife Cheng? When she had just passed the door before, she occasionally showed such a look, but she didn't want Tang Chengen to see Tang Chengen again after more than ten years, Cheng opened his mouth, and what he said was naturally not a curse.
"I should be satisfied if the master can have such a heart, but Yao'er's reputation has been damaged outside, and now I can only rely on Qing'er to help us minister, and the master should also put more energy on their mother and daughter."
After hearing this, Tang Chengen and the housekeeper were even more shocked, the two looked at each other stupidly, and then the housekeeper ran over to close the door tightly, and ran back to Tang Chengen's side and nodded gently.
At this time, there were only three of them left in the house, obviously people who had known each other for so many years, but the atmosphere was a little strange and weird at this time.
Tang Chengen nodded, and Hou rubbed his hands beside Cheng and said, "What you said to the housekeeper just now is true?" The affairs of Qing'er and Lord Xun were arranged by you? ”
Cheng naturally nodded, "Yes, that day, I saw that the old man didn't know what to worry about, so I thought about what I could do to relieve the old man's worries, and after thinking about it, it was better to fulfill your and Gu's wishes and send Tang Nuoqing a good future." ”
Cheng's tone is still gentle, but Tang Chengen is her pillow person and a minister after all, whether it is EQ or IQ, he can hear the thorn and unwillingness in these words, he laughed twice with a weak heart, "Madam, what are you talking about, our Yao'er has always been my heart's meat, I didn't take her to the palace banquet before because there were many people there and I was afraid that our daughter would be guided by others, this is to cherish Yao'er." ”
Cheng smiled slightly, only if what he said was true.
How could Cheng not know Tang Chengen's face for so many years, since he entered the door, he was lying perfunctory to please himself, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't tear her face with Tang Chengen for the time being because there were more important things, she would have to turn the Prime Minister's Mansion upside down now.
Seeing that Cheng stopped talking, Tang Chengen's heart began to burst out again, even if Cheng was noisy or noisy before, at least everything was expected by Tang Chengen, but everything today made him feel extremely abnormal, and Cheng's gentle appearance was even more creepy.
"That ......" Tang Chengen rubbed his hands again, "It's just that I've never heard of Madame having any dealings with Lord Xun before, and I don't know how I can talk to the prince." ”
When he first entered the door, Cheng said to the housekeeper that he came back this time to help Tang Nuoqing continue to get close to the prince and win a place in the palace, and also said that the meeting between Tang Nuoqing and the prince yesterday was because he had greeted the prince in advance.
What's more, Cheng even said that even Tang Nuoqing was sent back to the mansion is what she meant, and everyone had to be shocked when she said this, especially Tang Chengen, Tang Nuoqing's whereabouts last night were only known to the few people in the house, and it was naturally impossible for them to want Cheng to leak secrets in just a while.
The only way for the Cheng family to know about this was to listen to what Duan Jingxun said, but how could Duan Jingxun, a dignified prince, tell his whereabouts to irrelevant people, and it was such a private matter as a favored woman.
If the above two possibilities are not true, then the final answer can only be as Cheng said, everything was arranged by her, so she understands all the ins and outs like this, which is why everyone who can bluff Cheng with one mouth is convinced.
Cheng naturally knew that Tang Chengen's meaning at this time was not to doubt himself, but to think about how to transfer Cheng's connections and abilities to his own hands according to his greedy nature, Cheng's smile was even worse, "When my father was a child, he often accompanied the emperor to play chess in the palace, and I listened to the recitation of the scriptures at the Empress Dowager, and sometimes the Empress Dowager would call her grandson to come, and I became familiar with it when I came and went, and it was all when I was a child." ”
This kind of answer naturally can't satisfy Tang Chengen, just knowing each other when he was a child can grow up and listen to the mercy? Obviously, there is something more secret, Cheng didn't tell him the truth, but the other party was obviously playing Tai Chi, and Tang Chengen didn't want to ask directly, too clearly, what if Tang Nuoqing, who offended Cheng and hurt again, couldn't become the prince's family.
Tang Chengen quickly figured out the ins and outs of the matter in his mind, first of all, Duan Jingxun was able to pamper Tang Chengen because of Cheng's words, this is Cheng's proving his strength to the Tang family, and secondly, Tang Nuoqing was sent back later, which means that it is not enough to be able to talk to the prince, as long as Cheng's order is given, the prince can still turn his face and deny people, this is probably Cheng's threatening Tang Chengen.
