Chapter 179: A Shocking Secret
There is no snow in the city, so the streets are very lively, the two are walking side by side, and the curious baby Su Mulian looks around, and the restaurant in the prime location on the main street is already crowded.
"What do you want to eat?" Cheng Aoran, who was expressionless, asked in a low voice.
Su Mulian thought for a while and said, "We don't have much silver, so let's eat some casually." ”
Cheng Aoran had guilt on his face and nodded: "Okay." ”
Su Mulian looked at Cheng Aoran, the girl in her heart was bursting, feeling that he was good at everything, he just liked to pretend to be cool with a tight face, a typical domineering president's personality, and silently thought in her heart, are ancient men like this?
Is this their first date? But why does it feel so weird?
The two came to a slightly remote restaurant, entered the private room, ordered food, and then there were only two people left, Cheng Aoran had fewer words, and it was a little uncomfortable for Su Mulian, who talked about the bun, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.
Su Mulian secretly thought in her heart, how to open her mouth to break this strange situation?
The speed of the restaurant was very fast, and after a while, the dishes were ready, Cheng Aoran picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched the dishes for Su Mulian, and said, "Eat more." ”
Su Mulian nodded hurriedly: "You practice very hard every day, you should eat more." ”
Cheng Aoran just nodded silently, and then fell silent again.
Probably because of falling in love, Su Mulian always had a strange feeling, and she didn't let go of it before, so she lowered her head and ate silently.
"Now that the fall of the Marquis of Qin is widely implicated, who will know who will suffer next?" Suddenly, a man's voice came from next door.
However, Su Mulian heard it clearly, and thought to herself, the sound insulation effect of this restaurant is too poor, right? Wait a minute...... They seem to be talking about the Marquis of Qin, are they from the court?
This conversation aroused Su Mulian's curiosity.
"Master Cai, you have to be careful when you speak, in case you are listened to by others, it is not good." The person who spoke reminded him with a bit of a joking, as if he was watching a joke.
"Lord Xiao said this as if it was none of his business, this spring is going to be a martial arts, I'm afraid Lord Xiao will be too busy by then, right?" Master Cai said with a smile.
Lord Xiao smiled and said slowly: "Now that we are on the cusp, who would dare to take it?" ”
Lord Cai snorted and said, "Lord Xiao, Lord Xiao, this triennial martial arts move is a good opportunity for us!" ”
Su Mulian listened to this conversation and felt that something was wrong, could it be that this was a small meeting of corrupt officials? So curiously, he stood up, walked to the partition and put his ear on it.
"Lord Cai!" Immediately afterward, there was a roar from Lord Xiao, who warned in a low voice, "What kind of place is this?" Aren't you afraid that the walls have ears? ”
"Don't worry, Lord Xiao, it's very safe here, this restaurant is not doing well, it's just right for us to talk about business!" Lord Cai smiled, and his voice was treacherous, "In this officialdom, who will be incorruptible?" ”
Seeing her appearance, Cheng Aoran frowned dissatisfiedly, and asked softly, "What are you doing?" ”
Su Mulian hurriedly made a silent gesture, paused for a while, and then walked to his side and signaled to leave quickly.
After leaving the restaurant and returning to the main street, Cheng Aoran continued to ask, "What are you listening to?" ”
Su Mulian couldn't hold back her excitement, looked left and right mysteriously, stood on tiptoe and attached it to his ear, and said, "I have discovered a shocking secret, I have to go back and tell the prince quickly." ”
Cheng Aoran, who was puzzled, didn't ask much, and the two hurriedly returned to the Regent's Mansion, and under the guidance of the housekeeper, they came to the study, stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Liang Zhao, who was processing the documents, saw the person who came in, put down the brush in his hand, habitually put away the documents, and asked with a smile: "Miss Su, Cheng Gongzi, do you have something to do with this king?" ”
Su Mulian, who had a smile on her face, stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, I went out today and learned something by chance. ”
"Oh?" Liang Zhao asked curiously.
"There are corrupt officials in the court." Su Mulian deliberately lowered her voice, frowned indignantly, and said in a low voice.
As soon as these words came out, Liang Zhao was very surprised, his face became heavy, he frowned seriously, and asked rhetorically, "Miss Su, what did you say?" ”
Cheng Aoran also knew the importance of this matter, for fear that Su Mulian was not talking nonsense, so he stepped forward and hurriedly blamed: "Amu, this matter can't be talked nonsense." ”
"I'm not talking nonsense." Su Mulian was a little angry at Cheng Aoran's distrust, looked at Liang Zhao seriously, and replied, "Just now when we were eating in the restaurant, we heard it next door. ”
"They called Lord Xiao and Lord Cai, and said that martial arts was a good opportunity, and later said that the people in the officialdom were incorruptible." Su Mulian struggled to recall their conversation and said.
Liang Zhao heard this, and suddenly smiled coldly: "They should be Cai Quan, the secretary of the ministry, and Xiao Bo, the secretary of the ministry." ”
"The officials are in charge of appointment, dismissal, assessment, promotion, promotion, etc., and the officials are in charge of education, and this official position is a fat sheep for corrupt officials." Su Mulian, who hated corrupt officials from the bottom of her heart, sighed.
"Lord Wang, you must bring corrupt officials to justice." Su Mulian said indignantly, "Corrupt officials are like pests, but if they multiply too much, they will destroy the dynasty." ”
"Amu!" Cheng Aoran, who was on the side, had a serious face, and roared in a low voice, for fear that her words would be inappropriate, and then hurriedly looked at Liang Zhao and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Lord Wang, Amu is not sensible, and I hope you don't blame her." ”
Su Mulian eased up at this time, in this society, women can't talk about the affairs of the court, so she lowered her head aggrievedly, and pouted a little sadly: "I'm sorry for the prince, Fang is Mulian abrupt." ”
Liang Zhao admired Su Mulian very much, clapped his hands approvingly, and said, "You are right, why is it abrupt?" In fact, the king and the royal brother have long been suspicious of the two, but they can't find evidence. ”
Seeing that he didn't mean to blame, Su Mulian looked at her with glowing eyes, and said excitedly: "Isn't this martial arts move a good opportunity, isn't it okay to kill them by surprise when the time comes?" ”
"Oh?" Liang Zhao was amused by Su Mulian, and couldn't help but ask, "I don't know what Miss Su thinks?" ”
Su Mulian, who didn't dare to speak for a while, looked at Cheng Aoran with a serious expression worriedly, and looked back at Liang Zhao, who was looking forward to it, who knows if this is a proposition? It's still about saving your life right now.
"Don't make fun of Mu Lian, I'm just a village girl, where did I come from?"
Liang Zhao had to admire her ability to adapt to changes, and nodded with satisfaction, it seems that the person who the imperial brother has a good eye on is really good.
Su Mulian was afraid of such a look and said tentatively.
"If the prince doesn't have anything else, Cheng Aoran and I won't bother you?"
