Chapter 283: Dowry

"Lord Wang." Cui Hu came to Li Yuanbo's side and said, "Do you need the villain to continue to follow Cheng Dagongzi?" ”

Only then did Li Yuanbo retract his gaze from staring at Cheng Ruoyun, waved his hand, and said, "No need." Last time, how happened to the king's investigation? ”

"Hua Guifei, they are very hidden, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to investigate."

Li Yuanbo smiled, his eyes fell on the envelope on the table, and said, "Then don't investigate Concubine Hua first, let's investigate what the prince has been doing recently." This king bets that your investigation is definitely not as detailed as the letter. ”

"However, our in-depth investigation is all elites, and it is aimed at the movements of the Hua family and others in the officialdom, how can it not be compared to the news of the eldest son of the Cheng family?" Cui Hu didn't quite understand that the ability of non-return, he and the prince were obvious to all, how could they not be compared to a merchant.

Li Yuanbo rubbed his chin with his hand and said: "Maybe it's because of this that everything knows that officials and people can be investigated, but don't forget, businessmen are the most sensitive, and they are also the middlemen between officials and people, and Cheng Ruoyun sees many things more clearly than us." Well, the person who investigated Cheng Ruoyun can also take it back, and it is estimated that he has already found out. Let Shi Shi not return and put the rest of the manpower on the prince. At least you can't let this king fall Cheng Ruoyun too much. ”

"Yes." Cui Hu nodded, and then walked out of the courtyard.

After Li Yuanbo was the only one left in the courtyard, Li Yuanbo looked at the scenery in the distance and sighed: "Cheng Ruoyun, Cheng Ruoyun, if you didn't quit automatically, this king really doesn't have much chance of winning." ”

At this time, Li Yuanbo was still somewhat sympathetic, those who were opponents of Cheng Ruoyun.

How terrifying it is to have such an opponent.

on the carriage.

The little guy lifted the curtain and asked, "Son, are we still going to the merchant now?" ”

Cheng Ruoyun smiled slightly: "Naturally, I won't go, let's go back to the house first, I'm afraid that there is a big event waiting for me there." ”

"Huh? What's the big deal? The little guy touched his head, wasn't everything fine when he just went out? In less than an hour, what can happen?

"When you go, you will know. Let's go. Cheng Ruoyun said with a smile.

"Okay, eldest son."

White House

A middle-aged old woman led the two of them to the flower hall.

Zheng recognized that this old lady was Mama Jiang who served beside Mrs. Cheng.

As soon as Zheng took Bai Mingzhu into the room behind the flower hall, he saw Mrs. Cheng sitting on the soft floor in the middle, looking at Zheng's mother and daughter.

Maybe it was because the Zheng mother and daughter had bad intentions in their hearts, so they felt that although Mrs. Cheng was old, her eyes were shining, as if she wanted to see through the hearts of the two people.

Zheng lowered his head in a hurry, not daring to look at the old lady in the seat.

"Old lady Cheng, I came to greet you today with Mingzhu." After that, the Zheng family hurriedly patted Bai Mingzhu's hand. The white pearl suddenly bowed and said, "Grandma Cheng is fine." Regards.

Mrs. Cheng looked at the mother and daughter who came today from the seat, and said, "Sit down, no matter how you say it, they are all from the Bai family, and don't see outsiders." By the way, what about Frost? Why didn't I come with you? ”

The Zheng family didn't care about resenting Bai Shuangshuang in their hearts, and only thought about how to find an excuse for Bai Mingzhu to go to Cheng Ruohan, and said, "Shuangshuang, she went to the palace today to help Hua Guifei plant flowers." The gang shouldn't be able to come back for a while. ”

"That's it." Mrs. Cheng bowed her head, and did not speak, but lifted the teacup on the table next to her and took a sip gently.

Such a scene was suddenly a little embarrassing, but what kind of person is Zheng, she is also a young lady from an official eunuch's family, and it is natural to deal with such a scene, I saw her eyes roll, and she walked to the chair on the side, just when Bai Mingzhu was following and wanted to sit down, she deliberately patted Bai Mingzhu's hand and made a crisp sound, which attracted the attention of the old lady Cheng and Mama Jiang, and raised her voice and said: "Mingzhu, you go to Ruohan to play, you haven't looked for your Ruohan brother for a long time, Mrs. Cheng and I want to discuss your sister's lifelong affairs, and you don't listen well here. ”

Bai Mingzhu answered absentmindedly, and didn't bother to say goodbye to Mrs. Cheng, so she walked out of the room.

The original Mrs. Cheng didn't want to agree, after all, what is the matter with lonely men and widows, although this behavior has not been done once or twice before. But after hearing what Zheng said that he wanted to discuss about Bai Shuangshuang, he didn't stop it anymore and let Bai Mingzhu walk out of the room.

Zheng sat in his position, peeking at Bai Mingzhu with his spare eyes, Bai Mingzhu walked to the door and turned his head, looked at Zheng who was gesturing with himself in his eyes, and then left quickly with his head down.

The old lady of the Cheng family followed Zheng's gaze, and only saw the corner of Bai Mingzhu's departing clothes. Mrs. Cheng retracted her gaze, she was old, but her heart was not old, and she could vaguely see that there was something strange about Zheng and Bai Mingzhu today. But she didn't say it, but not because she had to take care of the faces of the two families, but because of Cheng Ruoyun, if this was really Cheng Ruoyun's choice, she wouldn't intervene, but it was a pity.

Old Lady Cheng retracted her visitive gaze and said to Zheng: "I don't know what Mrs. Bai wants to say to the old lady when she comes today?" ”

Zheng hurriedly smiled and said, "Old lady, I didn't come in to see your old man yesterday, but I brought a good bird's nest to your old man's house this time." ”

Mrs. Cheng waved her hand and said, "No need, our Cheng family has never lacked good bird's nest ginseng, you can take it back." If you're really embarrassed, take it back and stew it for Frost to eat, and it will be as if I received your heart. ”

Zheng's smiling face froze, but then said: "Also, the Cheng family merchants are all over the place, so naturally they don't look down on this kind of thing." ”

"If you know, it's good." Mrs. Cheng was also not polite, and said, "Didn't you say that you want to discuss with me the lifelong event of Shuangshuang, what is it?" ”

Zheng smiled awkwardly, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "Didn't the emperor marry Shuangshuang and the eldest young master of the Cheng family before, didn't I come to discuss, I need something, it just so happens that Mingzhu and Ruohan also have a marriage certificate, so naturally they will handle it together, and then, isn't it simple." ”

Mrs. Cheng squinted at the Zheng family, and saw that the Zheng family had a ghost in her heart, but she was looking for a topic, if Mrs. Cheng didn't understand and didn't have anything to say, she was even more disdainful in her heart when she saw it, and at the same time, she felt a lot of guilt for Cheng Ruoyun.

"You're right, one is a marriage gift from the emperor, and the other is a marriage letter, anyway, they are all going to marry a family. However, Mrs. Bai, there is a sentence here, even if it is not worth talking about, it must be said, this is related to the ancestral teachings of our Cheng family. Mrs. Cheng said.
