Chapter 42: Conspiracy (1)

Mrs. Pei heard Mrs. Qi say this, and saw that she was confident, and thought of her husband's advice when she came, so she smiled and said: "Of course you don't have to be afraid of him, think of him Li family, he was only a businessman in the past, and when he reached Li Yuan's generation, he was lucky enough to become an official, and until now, he is just a history from the palace of the prince of Sipin." ”

She will hear it the other way around. The history of the prince's mansion, although he is only in charge of the affairs of the palace, is not as majestic as Liu Chengcai. But that is the most trustworthy person around King Ning, if King Ning doesn't have a chance to take the throne, it's okay, but this King Ning's identity is extraordinary, since there are many saints, Li Yuan, who was from a humble background, can he drill into such an official position, can he be said to be stupid, can he be underestimated? No.

Mrs. Biqi just smiled slightly: "Do you know why it is so difficult to find a woman with the fifth surname?" Why did the imperial court issue a special edict not to allow the descendants of the five surnames to marry on their own? ”

Mrs. Pei said: "Naturally, I know. ”

This dynasty has five surnames and seven families formed since the previous dynasty, which are first-class high-ranking families, namely Qinghe Wu family, Fanyang Bai family, Xingyang Wang family, Taiyuan Qin family, Longxi Xiao family, Boling Wu family, and Zhaojun Xiao family. Through their marriages with the royal family and with themselves, they formed a group of powerful people. In this dynasty, although the power of these five surnames in the court is not as great as before, they still have a very high influence in the society, and the officials and magnates, and even the royal family, are all proud to marry the five surnames. To give a few examples, the traces of the five surnamed women are everywhere - the queen is from the Xingyang Wang family, Princess Ning is from the Taiyuan Qin family, the wife of Pan Rong, the prince of Chuzhou, is also from the Fanyang Bai family, and the others are even more numerous.

For men, the honor of marrying a woman with five surnames even surpasses that of Princess Shang. People with these five surnames still have to raise their own value, and they are easily unwilling to marry other people, which makes them more and more strange. In order to break this situation, the imperial court specially issued an edict not allowing them to marry on their own. Under these circumstances, many of the new aristocratic ministers finally got their wish.

Mrs. Qi sneered: "Since you know, you should understand that although people like me are not as prominent as the five surnames and seven families, they are not comparable to those from the merchants, not to mention that your brother-in-law is the pillar of the country." Even in the future...... That honorable person, can he still trouble us for such a trivial matter? What's more, it's not a close relative of the Li family, but a distant relative who can't be beaten by eight poles. If he even has to take care of this kind of thing, I'm afraid he will not be able to keep busy. She said it hard in her mouth, but she secretly thought in her heart that she had to quietly tell Liu Chang not to make enemies with Li Xun again.

"Then if the Li family is determined to come out?" How could Mrs. Pei not understand this truth? But she understands a truth better, why do people do everything possible to marry the five surnames? Everyone has the desire for profit, and all they want is fame and greater power interests. Just like why the Liu family agreed to marry He Peony, the picture is to keep their own glory and wealth! She fully agrees with her husband's truthful words, after all, there are very few people who can marry the five surnames, so it is better to find a real one to be true. This Li family will be rich and noble in the future!

Mrs. Qi was asked by her, and she said unhappily for a while: "He is unreasonable and meddles in our family's private affairs, and there is no need for my family to be polite to him!" ”

Mrs. Pei's heart sank slightly: "What do you think about Zishu?" The county lord of Qinghua is not a ...... to mess with."

When Mrs. Qi heard her mention the county lord of Qinghua, she immediately stood up and said angrily: "The one thing I hate the most in my life is that someone presses me and forces me to do things I don't like!" There's always a way! ”

When Mrs. Pei saw that she was angry, she immediately changed her original intention, such a big temper, she still waited for her husband to come and talk to his sister tomorrow. So he looked left and right and said to him: "Why don't you see your brother-in-law and Zishu?" ”

Mrs. Qi snorted: "Zishu is drunk, and his father has seen him go." Do you have something to look for them? ”

Mrs. Pei shook her head and smiled: "If I want to have something, I won't tell you directly." ”

Mrs. Qi glared and said, "Don't coax me, I don't know yours yet?" What's the matter with coming to the door at this time? Hurry up! ”

Mrs. Pei just shirked: "Didn't you just tell you about the dancing horse and the Li family?" ”

Mrs. Qi sneered and said, "You are so interested in the Li family, don't you have a crush on that kid?" ”

Mrs. Pei was surprised: "Just kidding." Where does this start? ”

"Since it's not, who do you think is good after the last banquet?" Seeing that Mrs. Pei was silent, Mrs. Qi snorted coldly: "Do you listen to me, that kid can't be relied on." ”

"Sister, you're really worried." Mrs. Pei's face was as usual.

However, it was said that Liu Chengcai entered Liu Chang's courtyard and saw Liu Chang lying on the soft couch under the window, sleeping soundly, surrounded by a group of well-dressed, delicate, and diligent concubines. Biwu, Yu'er, Slim, and even the rainy tung with a big belly are there, the two of them are holding fans, sending him a faint cool breeze, one is beating his legs, and the other is wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, so happy!

Thinking of his embarrassment just now, Liu Chengcai couldn't help but be envious, jealous and hateful! At that moment, a group of women were blasted out, and a basin of water was lifted from the low table and poured it on Liu Chang.

Liu Chang is dreaming. In the dream, he beat Li Xun to the ground, tortured He Peony to death, and begged for mercy again and again, but he always refused to spare her. was in a happy place, and was suddenly kicked into the lake by the county lord of Qinghua, and his heart was so cold that he couldn't breathe. He turned over and sat up in a panic, only to find that his head, face, and body were dripping, and he couldn't help but be angry, and was about to scold something that didn't have long eyes that made him look like this, when he suddenly saw Liu Chengcai's enlarged face suddenly appear in front of him.

He glanced at Liu Chengcai lightly, lay down, stared at the carved beams above his head and the silver incense balls spinning in the air, and said in a dumb voice: "What are you going to do?" ”

Liu Chengcai got angry when he saw him looking like he was about to die, raised his foot and kicked him hard, and scolded: "Who is doing this to show you?" You didn't make it yourself! ”

Liu Chang sneered and did not answer.

Liu Chengcai knew his temper, and the more he pushed him, the more angry he became, so he stopped beating and scolding, found a clean place to sit down, and said, "Your mother said that you want to fight hard with others today?" You're really good! It's not enough to provoke the last county lord, but you want to provoke Ning Wangfu? ”

Liu Chang snorted: "Is she willing to find herself uncomfortable and complain about me?" Ning Wangfu, his father and son are almost the same as a dog in Ning Wangfu, why be afraid? "Hypocrisy and wrongdoing, everything is covered, he knows everything, it's just that the hatred of taking his wife is not shared!

Liu Chengcai was silent, and suddenly laughed: "You! It's because the county lord is reluctant to do anything to you, right? "In the past, the lord of Qinghua wanted to marry Liu Chang, but he couldn't get married, and after getting married, he never forgot it, and he hated her dead husband's soft temper, it seems that he loves Liu Chang this tone. Thinking of this, his mood was a little better.

When Liu Chang heard this, he did not admit or deny it.

Liu Chengcai got up and paced a few steps in the room with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "She has a strong relationship with you at this time, so she is naturally reluctant to do anything to you." But in the end, she is not the same person as us, it really makes her feel cold, she hates you, you are going to suffer! Leave this matter alone, I'll take care of it. From tomorrow onwards, you are not allowed to go out and hang out, but to stay at home honestly, to pick up your knowledge, and to find a ministry for you in a few days, and you should also be motivated, and it is not a matter of being like this all day long. ”

Liu Chang was stunned, and then his face turned hideous: "Don't you think about it!" "Turn over and stay, turn around and go out. The old thing, I sold him once before, is it going to sell him again this time?

Liu Chengcai smiled coldly and shouted, "Someone! Serve your son well, and don't go out without me. With that, he flicked his sleeves and left. Several family members behind him politely stopped Liu Chang in the courtyard.

On the second day, it coincided with Xiumu, Liu Chengcai and Mrs. Qi had just had breakfast when they heard that Qi Changlin was coming. Liu Chengcai saw that it was still early, so he asked Mrs. Qi, who had not said a word to him since last night, and gave a good face: "What are you going to do from morning to night, one trip at a time?" ”

Hearing him say this, it seems that he dislikes his mother's family too much. Mrs. Qi was furious, put the gilt silver cup in her hand on the table, and said coldly: "If you don't want to see it, you can not see it!" ”

Liu Chengcai pursed his lips, ignored her, and went out to see Qi Changlin, after the two of them exchanged pleasantries, Qi Changlin Fang made it clear that he was the Chinese invited by the He family.

Liu Chengcai drank a large pot of Mengding Stone Flower Tea Soup first, and said slowly: "So, is what King Ning meant?" I remember he wasn't a nosyman, so how could he take care of such a small thing? Was it Li Yuan who begged him? ”

Qi Changlin was not as careful as Mrs. Pei to Mrs. Qi, but he only smiled: "Who knows?" Anyway, the son and Lao Tzu are the same, aren't they all family? ”

Liu Chengcai snorted: "These two dancing horses have a big face! Although King Ning only mentioned it briefly, and did not ask for anything, the meaning should be understood, and it is more thoughtful to let his brother-in-law persuade him. The county lord of Qinghua will have a seizure sooner or later, so it is better to accept King Ning's love now. He turned his face and smiled: "I know, but I also need the He family to show sincerity." ”

Qi Changlin smiled: "That's nature. It's not a matter of delaying this matter, delaying my nephew's future, and when I have someone here to talk to them, I'll come over immediately. ”

Liu Chengcai bowed slightly, and said in a tone of lesson: "I heard that you have been very close to King Ning's Mansion recently, haven't you?" ”

Qi Changlin didn't admit it: "It's just that there happen to be some official matters." ”

Liu Chengcai pressed his shoulder and said meaningfully: "The situation is still unclear now, don't be in a hurry." ”

Qi Changlin nodded. But don't do it, it's right?

Before the time came, the father and son of the He family entered the gate of the Liu family together.
