Li Qi pondered for a while and understood the mystery of this, and his face turned white, "Brother Hao, I'm sorry, my sister is just jealous, and it doesn't mean anything else, don't blame her." I apologize for her, you know our family has never messed with anyone. ”

"If I hadn't known this, I would have doubted that you were a spy sent by someone else. As you know, in the past few years, most of the money in the treasury has been used for the construction of dikes and disaster relief, but there is not much money at all.

Lan'er worked so hard to make money for the family in those years because Xianglou didn't make that much money in the first few years, and it was also made up from everything else, and it was only in the past two years that she gradually made profits and maintained a balance between income and expenditure.

Outsiders know that the eldest lady of the Song family is good at managing money, which is very obedient, in fact, you all laugh at her in your hearts for loving money.

"But do you know how much money she spends every year to do good deeds, more than 10,000 taels of silver every year are needed for good deeds in various places, these are my grandfather and the emperor are clear, I made a record for the emperor a few days ago, and the emperor also praised me, I started quickly, and I got a good daughter-in-law."

This is a true thing, Zilan has done this, it is difficult for the emperor not to pay attention to it, and the emperor will also settle accounts and investigate.

Naturally, everything is clear, but Yang Houye and the Song family have given so many opportunities, and he feels the loyalty and duty of the two families.

Originally, the emperor planned to let Zilan enter the palace to draft and say that he would be the royal daughter-in-law for his son, but Marquis Yang pleaded, and the emperor gave up after thinking twice, not wanting to hurt the heart of the old minister.

Otherwise, he would not have said that the Cui family would have started quickly, and it was also because Zilan was not old enough that the Cui family had decided, and the old minister was not very willing to let his granddaughter be the royal concubine, so he stopped thinking.

"It's my sister who is reckless."

Li Qi's face was blushing, he didn't know what his sister was thinking, it was intended to remind Cui Hao that the Song family's girl was not worthy of his intention to love money.

"Forget it, Brother Li has apologized, a little girl's thoughts, don't affect your feelings for this little thing, just talk about it."

Zilan saw that the fire was almost over, took Cui Hao's hand and shook it, and opened his mouth to be a peacemaker.

Cui Hao glanced at her, and his eyes became gentle, "As long as you don't get angry with me, then forget about it, I will avoid your sister in the future, don't affect your sister's reputation because of me." ”

This is tantamount to bluntly saying that I will not let your sister come out on occasions in the future, and I don't want to be talked about.

"I see."

Li Qi's face was very disillusioned, very embarrassed and embarrassed.

Because Li Jiuniang made such an embarrassing incident, they hurriedly ate barbecue and left, and no one mentioned it when they were scheduled to go to Xianglou to play.

Zilan was swaying, "I thought I could go to Xianglou to play." ”

"I didn't say I wouldn't go if they didn't go, let's go, I'll take you to play."

Cui Hao saw that she was very disappointed, and immediately decided to take her to Xianglou to play.

"Really, do you take me there, it's not good for me to play anymore when my brother leaves, after all, there are a lot of people, and it's not good for me to go alone as a girl."

Zilan herself doesn't care, but her surname is Song, and her every move is related to the reputation of the Song family, how can she be willful.

"Of course, I asked your eldest cousin and Yu Han out for a drink, just so we went to have a fun, don't you want to meet Yu Han, I'll take you to see it."

Cui Hao was very generous and took the initiative to introduce Zilan to him.

"Really, you take me to see Yu Han."

Zilan was quite surprised, but she didn't expect this person to be quite generous.

"He's decided on your sister, it doesn't matter if I take you to see someone."

Cui Hao explained funny, am I so stingy.

"Let's go, let's go now, we can still catch up with the activities of the incense building, I don't know if it's a guess or an auction today."

Zilan suddenly became happy again, holding his hand and chattering.

"Okay, it's good if you're happy, I thought you were angry with me and didn't want to pay attention to me."

Cui Hao coaxed her like this because he was afraid that she would be angry.

Zilan then remembered Li Jiuniang's matter, snorted, and gave him a roll of his eyes, "I told you that you are not allowed to hook up in the future, and you dare to call you Brother Hao, the flesh is numb." ”

Pouting in disgust.

"I didn't let her call it that, I've only met two or three times in total, what grew up together, who grew up with her, it has nothing to do with me, but I made it clear at the time, I didn't hesitate at all, you were there."

Cui Hao hurriedly cleared up the relationship, what, cats and dogs, the master doesn't know him at all, don't you remember.

"Count you smart, there is no next time, remember that you are my Song Zilan alone, dare to climb the wall, believe it or not, I will let my eldest cousin beat you."

Yang Yu has been trained as a military general since she was a child, and her talent is extremely high, she feels that Yang Yu can beat Cui Hao.

"You're still smart, how do you know that Yang Yu is better than me."

Cui Hao's eyes flashed brightly, and he pursed his lips and smiled.

"I guess that he can be selected as the emperor's close guard, he must have something extraordinary, and it is impossible to be selected based on his family background. My second cousin and third cousin were not selected, but went to work in other ministries. ”

She judged it by her own guess.

"That's right, Yang Yu's martial arts are very high, he has the talent of a general, and the emperor also values it, so he stayed by his side to accumulate qualifications for him.

Zilan smiled and nodded, over the years, good things have not been given to my grandfather, I believe that Yang Yu has not been less good, and his strong ability is also expected.

Saying this, they arrived at the Xianglou, and it was almost time for dinner, and the Xianglou was already full of people.

"Do you know when my brother and they are coming?"

"I don't know, but we'll meet in the private room you left behind."

"Oh, that's good, I haven't seen my eldest cousin for a few days, and I've been busy doing things since I entered the palace, and I can't see him easily."

Zilan sighed with emotion, everyone has grown up and started to run for their future careers and marriages, and they are getting busier and busier, and they can't play like when they were children.

The door was closed, and there was a figure shaking inside, and Cui Hao pushed the door open with a big grin, "Yang Yu, you are so early today." ”

Pushing open the door, I found that there were two people sitting inside, one was Mr. Cui, and the other was a middle-aged man, wearing a brocade robe and a bright yellow jade buckle belt around his waist, sitting in the center of the position, with a very majestic bearing.

Behind him stood a middle-aged man with a fair face, slightly younger.

Standing next to him were Yang Yu and another particularly handsome young man.

Cui Hao was stunned for a moment and saluted, while Zilan took a quick step and bent down to salute, "The courtiers meet the emperor and Grandpa Cui." ”

Her quick reflexes didn't make it possible for anyone to stop it.

The middle-aged man sitting in the center blinked his eyes slightly, "Hahaha!" Xiangye, your eyes are still as vicious as ever, how did you guess that it was me, little girl. ”

Zilan was unhurried, bowed her head slightly, took a step forward, and once again performed an elegantly marked etiquette, so that she did not hurry to reply.

"Back to the emperor, don't wear bright yellow colors next time you go out, no one in the capital dares to wear bright yellow colors except for you and the royal family, and there are few people who can be accompanied by Grandpa Cui. The adult behind you also revealed your identity, and you can guess it by counting the age of the prince in the clan. ”
