Chapter 505: Threat

Zhao Shengling finally finished the work in his hands, and when he came to the hall, he saw Chasing Feng running non-stop, and the so-called champion Lang was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and from time to time he said a few words to Chasing Wind not to take the bet just now, and to sit next to him and rest by himself.

Zhao Shengling soon realized that this matter must have done something to chase the wind, but he didn't like to say anything about this matter at all now.

Howard saw Zhao Shengling hurriedly come forward to salute, and kept talking: "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince called his subordinates to come?" ”

Howard was still very happy when he came over, because since he got his fame, he has been an idle person in the entire capital, and he has always wanted to do something to show his ambitions, but he has never had the opportunity, so for a period of time, he always feels that he is very depressed alone.

But now it seems that there are some ways to solve all this, since Zhao Shengling took the initiative to ask him to come to the East Palace, maybe he can send him an official position this time.

No matter how big this official is, as long as he can have a place where he can slowly exert his fists and feet.

It's just that Zhao Shengling just looked him up and down a few times, and then didn't say anything, and sat directly on the chair on the side: "If I call you over today, there is also something I need to look for you." I heard that when you were studying at home before, you once had a cousin who was in love, why did you have no contact with your cousin after you got famous. ”

Zhao Shengling's words seem to be just some gossip, but the deep meaning contained in his words will make people shudder.

For the entire imperial court, one person must not have any moral problems.

Once there is any moral problem, as long as it is not discovered, everything is fine, but if it is discovered, then it will be a catastrophe for him.

There have been many people before, after winning the top prize, they were a little greedy for wealth and wealth, abandoned their wives in the family, and then married some wealthy daughters. But once this kind of thing is discovered, it is only the consequence of beheading them. Especially today's emperor, it seems that he is very interested in this aspect of morality, once there is any problem in this regard, Howard will not say whether there is a place to be able to display his ambitions, whether he can live is a very dangerous thing.

Howard really didn't know why Zhao Shengling said these words to him for a while, but his intuition told him that this Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not as easy to get along with as the legend at all, or that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of him had never gotten along well at all.

"I don't know where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard this news, since he has asked about it here, then the lower officials will definitely explain it clearly." Howard put the things in his hand on the table and stood up and saluted Zhao Shengling, "The cousin that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said has indeed been living in Xiaguan's house. ”

"Cousin, she has lived a lonely life since she was a child, and her mother takes pity on her cousin, so she took her to live at home, and Xia Guan is also very happy to have such a sister in clothing, so she usually loves her sister very much."

Howard explained his relationship with his cousin in a few words, and was sure that he would never have any contact with his cousin in the future.

Zhao Shengling didn't expect the other party to react so quickly, and casually said a few words and turned this matter over. But this one doesn't seem to be anything unusual at all.

Zhao Shengling was just silent for a moment, and then spoke again: "What you said is just your side of the story, Lone must ask all aspects of things clearly, if you have something that you have not done well, or if you have forgotten something, it is best to say it honestly." ”

"But even if you forget these things, it's nothing. Anyway, if you want any information, you will naturally find out all these things. After Zhao Shengling said this, he didn't want to communicate too much with the two of him, and turned around and left directly.

Howard still maintained the posture he had just now, and he didn't move at all, but now his heart was like a river overturning.

Zhao Shengling's words just now were just threatening him, and asking him to marry his cousin home, otherwise, he didn't want to see what happened.

Howard believes that Zhao Shengling has this idea, and he also has this strength, and he only needs to spend some money to find some people to be able to label him as a bad character. By then, all his futures have been ruined, but there is some room for what he just said.

As long as Howard admits that he has a heart for his cousin, then this crisis can disappear silently. If he continues to be as stubborn as before, his future will disappear completely.

It only took Howard a bit of effort to come up with an idea, whatever the reason, he would definitely do it.

He didn't want to be tied to a woman for the rest of his life, no matter if this person was his cousin or the daughter of Lord Bai's family. Then what he should do now is to get out of the marriage as soon as possible.

First, he can not worry about Zhao Shengling's threat to him, and secondly, he can also keep his wife's position and meet the woman he really likes when he waits for the opportunity.

Thinking of this, he didn't delay any longer, turned around and prepared to go to Baifu.

Bai Guoan has been very busy recently, busy investigating Zuo Xiang's affairs, and he has no time at all, so he can take a look at his future uncle. But since the other party has already come, a person like him who pays great attention to superficial kung fu can't hang the other party here, so he asked the housekeeper to take him around the house.

"Housekeeper, I came here today mainly to see your young lady, I don't know if you have time to introduce me?" Howard didn't have any interest in the decoration of the entire mansion at all, he just wanted to see the young lady of the Bai family now, and then tell the other party his intentions.

Before he fulfilled his ambitions, he would never take a wife easily. Even if this marriage is formulated by the emperor, he must fight for it.

The housekeeper didn't know what this future uncle meant, but he also knew very well that he couldn't offend the person in front of him. And now during this time, he also very much wants to come to Mo Yingge's courtyard.

The last time it was just a casual contact, he found that he had some thoughts about Zhuyi that he shouldn't have at all, and for a long time, he has been enlightening himself, warning that there is a huge gap between the other party's identity and the two of them, and it is absolutely impossible to touch it easily.

But this kind of emotional thing is not something he can control, and it didn't take long for him to feel that he had a deep affection for the other party, and he wanted to go directly to Zhuyi several times.

But in his heart, he felt that it was really not possible to do this, and what the other party said was just a maid, but he was the housekeeper of the entire house.

The identities and statuses between the two people are obviously different, and if he is so eager to yell and stick to the past, it is very likely to devalue his identity. But now the situation is completely different, since this future uncle wants to go, then take Howard over, maybe he can also see Bamboo Yi.

In this way, the two men held their own goals and slowly came to the outside of Mo Yingge's courtyard.

Mo Yingge has just been staying in the yard and swinging in the past few days, and he doesn't care about what is happening outside. Zhu Yi stood aside and read his gradually bulging little belly, and the whole person had a sad face.

"Bamboo, there are some pomegranate flowers added to this piece of pastry, do you want to try it?" Mo Yingge watched Zhuyi keep staring at the pastries in the bowl and drooling, and couldn't help but tease.

Zhu Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and wanted to eat this pastry, but she gave up after thinking about it for a long time: "Miss, I plan to eat less recently, so that I can lose weight." If I continue to be so fat, it will not be easy to do light work, and what if I encounter any danger in the future, I can't protect you in time. ”

Mo Yingge couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhuyi standing there duplicitously.

And at this time, the housekeeper just came to her with a man, and Mo Yingge suddenly felt that such a day was really a little boring, especially her courtyard, which seemed to be a place where people came and went.

No matter what kind of person you are, you can come here to find her.

"Butler, what is coming to me?" Mo Yingge put the pastry in his hand on the table and turned his head to ask.

When Howard saw Mo Yingge, he stood in place for a long time before he reacted: "Why are you in this place?" You haven't come to the library at all for a while, I thought you forgot, I didn't expect us to meet again today, it seems that this thing is really fate. ”

Mo Yingge looked at the other party's face and felt a little familiar, but she really couldn't remember where she had seen the other party now. The housekeeper who was standing on the side at that time couldn't help but reach out and pull Howard: "Zhuangyuanlang, this is our family's eldest lady Bai Luoshui." ”

Bai Luo Shui!

Howard suddenly felt the name familiar, but he quickly figured out where he had heard it.

"It turns out that you are the eldest lady of the Bai family who was given to me by the emperor."
