Chapter 197: Returning Home Safely

Ouyang Huaiyu pursed his lips, "Okay, don't be sarcastic about me." If it weren't for what you thought of in advance, I'm afraid I'd still be in the dark, right? Tomorrow I will be designated to be a copy of that little ginseng. ”

Xia Zhixue's eyes smiled like a crescent moon, "Liu Yuanwai will definitely revise the account book when he goes back, but he only needs five thousand taels of silver from the treasury." Tomorrow, let's see how Luo Licheng fiddles with that guy, right? You should be able to handle it alone, right? ”

Ouyang Huaiyu nodded. The situation of the prince is that Xia Zhixue helped him cast a net, just waiting for Liu Yuanwai to drill in.

"Then I'll leave for home tonight. If you stay here for too long, Xia Huaiqing will definitely be suspicious. "Xia Zhixue has already calculated, if you set off at this time, you can reach Houfu before dawn.

Ouyang Huaiyu thought about 10,000 words in his heart, and finally only turned into a short sentence, "Cherish all the way." ”

Xia Zhixue scolded Ouyang Huaiyu for being a white-eyed wolf in her heart, she ran so far to help him, but in the end she only got one sentence, "cherish all the way"? Forget it, just think of yourself as a white-eyed wolf. Xia Zhixue turned around and went back to her room to pack her luggage.

Lotus had been waiting for Xia Zhixue in the room for a long time, and when she saw Xia Zhixue coming back, Lotus was so excited that she didn't know what to say, she was unwilling to go on this trip. In order to give the prince an idea from such a distance, the key is to risk being arrested at any time, but fortunately, the days of fear will end tonight.

"Miss, everything is packed. The carriage was at the door and we were ready to go at any time. ”

Xia Zhixue nodded, Lotus has always been efficient, which reassured her.

"Let's go." Xia Zhixue took some of the luggage in Lotus's hand and prepared to go out. Lotus wanted to snatch the burden from Xia Zhixue's hand, but she had no choice but to have three burdens on her body, so she had to call Hua Cheng.

Hua Cheng ran over and easily took over the burden on the lotus. Lotus felt that her body was suddenly a lot lighter, so she walked over quickly and prepared to pick up the burden in Xia Zhixue's hand. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Huaiyu took the first step to take over the burden in Xia Zhixue's hands.

Xia Zhixue glanced up at Ouyang Huaiyu and smiled, "It's okay." I also know that I know the gratitude of the newspaper. After speaking, he nodded decently.

Ouyang Huaiyu blushed a little at what Xia Zhixue said, walked quickly to the carriage parked at the door, and stuffed things in.

"I ordered the groom to put some soft cushions on the inside, so that you can travel less on the road."

Xia Zhixue didn't speak, and got into the carriage with the cloak and veil she had brought when she came. There are many kinds of parting. This time, the time of parting can be expected.

Knowing that Ouyang Huaiyu came to disaster relief, Xia Zhixue was at a loss. She was afraid that if she didn't deal with it properly, she would be killed by the local people's anger or royal anger, but this time was different. She knew things were settled. The date of return is nothing more than a matter of time.

Lotus also got into the carriage with Hua Cheng's luggage. Obviously, there were a lot less things to go back this time than the one I came, and the carriage had a lot more space.

Xia Zhixue tugged at the handkerchief in the carriage, and finally lifted the curtain of the carriage and whispered, "Come back early." As soon as he finished speaking, the groom tugged at the horse's rope, and the carriage departed.

She wasn't sure if Ouyang Huaiyu heard what she said, but it didn't matter.

The door of Ouyang Huaiyu's mansion.

Ouyang Huaiyu and Hua Cheng looked at the back of the carriage in the distance and were stunned. Until the carriage was out of sight, the two men still looked into the distance in the same posture.

"Lord Wang," Hua Cheng said, "Did the third young lady say something before leaving?" ”

Ouyang Huaiyu frowned, "It should be." I heard it too. "Dream Chinese

Hua Cheng finally twisted his face to Ouyang Huaiyu, and the long-term gaze made Hua Cheng's neck very sore.

"What did the third lady say?"

Sighing, Ouyang Huaiyu raised his eyes and looked at Hua Cheng, "I don't know, it should be scolding me, right?" I have so much to say, why didn't I tell her? She must have scolded me for having no conscience, right? Tired of running around to help me, I didn't even say anything? ”

Hua Cheng nodded in agreement. "If I were the third lady, I would definitely scold you."

Ouyang Huaiyu rolled his eyes, "Can't you comfort and comfort your prince?" ”

Hua Cheng opened his mouth, but in the end not a word popped out.

"Forget it, the prince should go to bed early."

Ouyang Huaiyu returned to his room angrily.

When the rooster crowed, Xia Zhixue was already lying on her small bed, still with a familiar breath, Xia Zhixue took a deep breath, and then fell into a sweet dream.

Lotus looked at her young lady's appearance, and was extremely relieved that she had finally come back safely, and she could finally sleep peacefully. Don't worry about it in the middle of the night.

Early morning pilgrimage the next morning.

After discussing all matters, the emperor and his courtiers were about to retire from the court, but they were stopped by Luo Licheng, "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to play!" ”

The emperor raised his eyelids and looked at Luo Licheng, but did not speak. Luo Licheng's eyebrows and eyes were hiding a smile in his heart, but he knew that this matter must not be too obvious, so he held back the excitement in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the minister dares to ask, how much silver did the nineteenth prince use in the treasury for disaster relief?"

The emperor smacked his tongue, his face was full of impatience, is this Luo Licheng a little wide? "I don't think it's a matter for a horse to worry about how much money is in the treasury. If the colt really cares, it is better to have a child with the princess a few days earlier, and let me be an uncle. ”

Luo Licheng had nothing to say when he was refuted, and saying too much would only make the emperor feel that he was worried about the silver in the treasury. So he pulled out a piece of paper from his bosom. It was the bill that Liu Yuanwai struggled to change last night. As long as there is this, the emperor can be suspicious of Ouyang Huaiyu.

"Yesterday, the minister was in the suburbs to experience the people's feelings, but he saw a group of people chasing a person to kill, and the minister struggled to save the person. Later, I learned that this person turned out to be an outsider who bought grain from the Nineteenth Prince. At the beginning, the nineteenth prince bought the grain of the Yuanwai family for 5,000 taels, and later the outsider learned that the nineteenth prince actually asked the court for 10,000 taels of silver. After the nineteenth prince found out, he wanted to kill people. ”

For a while, the court was very noisy, and all the ministers were talking.

"You embezzled five thousand taels? That's a lot of money! ”

"He even killed people and killed people, the nineteenth prince is really as yin as rumored!"

"I don't think the Nineteenth Lord is such a person......"

Luo Licheng listened to the reactions of everyone in the court with satisfaction, and hooked the corners of his lips, very good, this is the effect he wants!

Above the court, the emperor calmly looked at all this in front of him, and already had the answer in his heart, which can cause everyone in the court to belittle Xiao Nineteen, this Luo Licheng is really not simple. I originally went out to experience Little Nineteen, how could I not know if he would be corrupt? Luo Licheng is still too naΓ―ve.
