Li Qia set his eyes on Zhao Changfeng who was riding a horse in front of him again.

Although they haven't known each other for a long time, Li Cha feels that he is not a person who will mess around.

And if Zhao Changfeng is good with his cousin, why should he be sneaky, and why did the cousin of the Zhao family go to the Qingqing Poetry Society?

Unless she holds Zhao Changfeng on the one hand and doesn't let go, on the other hand, she wants to climb a higher branch.

It seems that only the cousin of the Zhao family in a certain courtyard in this alley can solve the doubts in her heart.

Although Li Cha didn't know much about Zhao Changfeng, he had probably heard about his family.

The Zhao family and the Huo family are both military generals, and they have also been knighted as marquis, but they are only hereditary.

Later, because he had not made any military achievements, he had been demoted to Dongpingbo in Zhao Changfeng's father's generation.

In the great battle with the Tatars many years ago, Dong Pingbo, who was eager for quick success, made a big mistake on the battlefield in order to make war achievements.

In the end, not only did the title not be kept, but even his life was lost, and it also caused heavy losses to the Great Zhou army.

So when he came to Zhao Changfeng, not only did he not have a title to inherit, but he also got the reputation of a descendant of a criminal minister, and his family was even more depressed.

After thinking about it, the carriage had stopped in front of a courtyard, and Li Qia lifted the curtain to see that Huo Xiaoting and the others were already tying horses to the old poplar tree.

Li Cha jumped out of the carriage by himself, and before he could go into the courtyard, he could already smell the smell of decoction wafting out.

Is the cousin of the Zhao family sick?

Li Cha sniffed hard, and felt that the taste of the decoction was extremely bitter, and it should be that the medicinal power was very strong.

Li Qia judged from this that the illness of the person who took the medicine was not light.

"Brother Zhao, this is where you want to bring us? Why didn't your cousin live in Zhao Mansion? ”

Zhao Changfeng bowed, "After she had an accident, she asked me to hide the news and didn't want to go back to the Zhao family." ”

That is, he used to live in the Zhao family.

After Zhao Changfeng answered Li Cha's words, he made a gesture of invitation to the group.

It seems that although Huo Xiaoting and Xiao Jue know the story of the Zhao family's cousin, they are also here for the first time.

Stepping into the courtyard gate, Li Qia saw that it was an ordinary second-entry small courtyard, which was neat and orderly.

Hearing the sound of the door opening and everyone's footsteps, a mother-in-law walked out of the second gate, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, "Zhao Gongzi is here." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was the sound of broken bowls in the room behind her, and then the smell of medicine became even stronger.

Then came the hoarse and almost desperate voice of a little lady, "I don't drink medicine!" ”

"Cousin, how can you not drink medicine?" Another mother-in-law's voice of comfort sounded.

"What about the medicine, can I open my eyes again?"

Li Qia set his gaze on Zhao Changfeng's face, and saw that his expression suddenly darkened.

The cousin of the Zhao family is blind?

I didn't hear that the little lady who fell into the water today mentioned that Zheng Wenhao has a tendency to harm others.

However, Li Cha has no doubt that a scumbag like Zheng Wenhao should be able to do anything.

She suddenly remembered that the eagle that had just soared in the poetry club looked very fierce.

She didn't dare to guess, it was too cruel.

"Cousin, she won't drink medicine again?" Zhao Changfeng asked the mother-in-law in front of him worriedly.

The mother-in-law looked anxious and worried, and nodded heavily, "It's okay if you don't want to drink the medicine, yesterday my cousin almost committed suicide by swallowing gold when she got up at night, and I found out in time." ”

"I'll go in first." Zhao Changfeng didn't care about everyone anxiously, but entered the second gate first.

Leave the mother-in-law to greet Li Qia and the others, "Masters, please please come in." ”

"I think we'd better wait outside." Huo Xiaoting said.

"Yes, after all, stepping through this door is Miss Liu's boudoir. And she's emotionally unstable, so let's not bother for now. Xiao Jue also echoed.

"Then sit over there first." Li Cha raised his hand and pointed to the stone table under the apricot tree on the edge of the courtyard, where there were five stone benches.

A few people sat down, and the mother-in-law went to Zhang Luo tea, Li Qia saw that there were probably only these two mothers-in-law in this courtyard, so he waved his hand to stop: "A few of us just drank tea, you go and take care of your cousin." ”

The mother-in-law retreated, leaving only a few people in the courtyard.

Li Cha was unwilling to wait in vain, and asked Xiao Jue, "Have you ever known the story of this cousin of the Zhao family and Brother Zhao." She didn't expect Huo Xiaoting to answer her words properly, let alone talk to him more.

"Miss Liu is the cousin of Uncle Changfeng's family, and Mrs. Zhao came to the capital from the countryside to serve when she was seriously ill. After Mrs. Zhao passed away, the uncle of the Zhao family refused to take Miss Liu away. ”

"Uncle Zhao plans to let Miss Liu marry Brother Zhao?" Li Cha asked.

"Nine girls guessed right!" Xiao Jue continued: "Although the Zhao family has declined, if Miss Liu marries Changfeng, it can be regarded as a high marriage. ”

"Do you have that in mind?"

"Changfeng didn't mean that, and Miss Liu also wanted to ......"

"I want to climb higher branches." So Li Cha guessed that this Liu girl was likely to go directly to Zheng Wenhao. After all, it has been less than a month since his relationship with Li Qing was settled.

Xiao Jue was a little disdainful, "Isn't it?" ”

At this time, there was a heart-wrenching cry from Miss Liu in the house.

"To put it simply, there is nothing wrong with Miss Liu wanting to marry a better family without deceiving Brother Zhao's feelings. And on the surface, the Qingqing Poetry Society is indeed a gathering place for powerful sons. It's just ......"

"It's just that behind the scenes, it's sanctimonious." Behind him, Zhao Changfeng's voice sounded.

He walked among the crowd and lowered his voice so that everyone could hear, "My cousin probably joined the Qingqing Poetry Club two months ago. ”

At the time Zhao Changfeng said, there has been no news of Zheng Wenhao's marriage, which coincides with Li Cha's previous speculation.

After that, she progressed through the ranks, won a silver medal, and became a second-class member. I met Zheng Wenhao by chance a month ago. ”

This is already very close to Li Cha's speculation, and the truth is about to come out.

Zheng Wenhao also gave his cousin a piece of heirloom jade pendant, and promised his cousin to marry her into the door.

After that, it was a common routine, and Li Qia suspected that Zheng Wenhao's heirloom jade pendant didn't know how many pieces he had prepared.

"After that, Zheng Wenhao wanted to secretly cross Chen Cang with his cousin, but his cousin refused."

This Liu girl also has some ideas, after all, she has seen some of the world, and she is not as easy to deceive as those little ladies in the market.

"Later, my cousin learned that Zheng Wenhao had been married to the seventh girl of the Li family, and knew that he must have been deceived, so he returned the jade pendant to Zheng Wenhao and questioned him, and wanted to get back his poems, and since then he has drawn a clear line with the Qingqing Poetry Society, but he didn't expect ......"

Unexpectedly, the latter result was unbearable for Miss Liu.

"I didn't expect that well-dressed beast to coerce my cousin......" Zhao Changfeng clenched his fists tightly, as if he was about to crush them, and the anger and hatred in his eyes spread.
