Inside the Mandarin Palace.

Lu Shi sat in front of Huang Zicheng and Lu Ben with a hint of anger on his face.

"I didn't expect Xu Huizu to give face to this concubine so much, and he actually opened his mouth to shirk!"

Lu Ben smiled: "It's just that the current situation is not clear, and he doesn't want to advance the team." ”

Huang Zicheng waved his hand and said:

"It's okay, another morning, as the teacher of the little second master, Zhao Mianyi of the United Ministry of Rites made a request to His Majesty, imploring His Majesty to give him a marriage, and marry Xu Miaojin to the little second master."

Lu Shi's face was filled with a hint of joy at this time, and he muttered:

"It's so good, if His Majesty gives him a marriage, then Xu Huizu will definitely not dare to shirk it, and when the time comes, Yun Xi will have the support of the Xu family, so he will naturally not be afraid of the old guys behind Yun Xi."

Huang Zicheng nodded calmly:

"The little second master has been favored by His Majesty since he was a child, and he is a childhood sweetheart with Xu Miaojin, such a good relationship, His Majesty will definitely be very happy to marry, and the princess doesn't have to worry about it."

A few people were talking, when they saw Zhu Yunwen running in with an excited face.

Lu Shi frowned and scolded: "A gentleman should be happy and angry, have you forgotten?" ”

Zhu Yunwen stuck out his tongue, but he couldn't hide his happiness, and said excitedly:

"Yunxi was beaten hard with a wicker by the emperor's grandfather just now."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback, and they all looked at Zhu Yunwen with suspicious eyes.

At that moment, Zhu Yunwen described what happened in the imperial study just now. Then patted his chest and laughed:

"I originally thought that Zhu Yunxi was rich now and wanted to get the 30,000 taels of silver back, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen."

"What about you, how did His Majesty treat you at that time?"

Lu Shi asked repeatedly.

Zhu Yunxi chuckled: "Grandpa Huang only asked who did it first, and then he beat Zhu Yunxi indiscriminately, and finally drove the two of us out of the imperial study." ”

Lu Shi let out a long sigh of relief and asked again, "How did you do it at that time?" ”

"Of course I cried bitterly, begging the emperor's grandfather not to beat Zhu Yunxi."

Zhu Yunwen said proudly.

Lu Ben stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has doted on you since you were a child, of course she refuses to do anything to you." ”

Huang Zicheng frowned, and faintly felt that something was not quite right in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only be silent.

Lu Shi beckoned to Zhu Yunwen and let him sit in front of him, and then said:

"In a few days, your grandfather and Mr. Huang will ask His Majesty to marry Xu Miaojin to you, so you don't have too much contact with Miaojin for a while, so as not to cause gossip."

Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed when he heard this, nodded his head again and again, and shouted in his heart:

"Haha, Zhu Yunxi, I'm afraid you're going to jump into the river again!"

.

For two days in a row, Zhu Yunxi stayed in the house to tell stories to Liuli, hugging and hugging by the way, pinching his face, kissing his mouth or something, it was simply very happy.

Xiao Liuli thought that sooner or later she would be the third master's person, and she was half-pushed and half-done, but she stuck to the bottom line and didn't let Zhu Yunxi enter the substantive communication link.

According to her words, the little third master has not yet married, and he can't overstep his bounds, otherwise he will be beaten to death with a stick.

Zhu Yunxi had no choice but to curse this decadent feudalism.

At this moment, seeing that Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but stretch out his claws to himself, Liuli giggled and dodged, and shouted: "Third master, don't make trouble, Liuli is rubbing medicine for you." ”

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were red, and he shouted angrily: "Swollen eyes and starve balls, this is to suffocate your little third master!" ”

Liuli was stunned, repeating Zhu Yunxi's words in her mouth, and reacted in a moment, and suddenly blushed with shame.

"Scoundrel!"

She snorted, but said quietly: "If the third master wants Liuli, then hurry up and marry Miss Miaojin back." ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhu Yunxi instantly came to his senses, snapped his fingers at Liuli and smiled:

"Don't worry, third master, I will marry her back to you as a sister in a few days."

"Bragging again!"

Liuli looked incredulous, frowned and said, "The little second master seems to like Miss Miaojin very much." ”

"Hehe, just because he likes it, I want to marry Miaojin even more."

Zhu Yunxi laughed, this time he was determined to compete with Zhu Yunxi.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and Jiang Zhen walked in.

"Little Third Master, everything you ordered has been done."

Jiang said: "Xishan has bought two coal mountains, and the construction of a plant for the production of honeycomb coal has also begun. ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Let Qian Duoduo find more reliable workers, and the method of making honeycomb coal must be kept secret." ”

Jiang Zhen nodded and said with a smile: "Little Third Master, rest assured, when the time comes, the workers will be personally screened and guarded by my Jinyi Guard, and no one will dare to divulge half a point." ”

Boss, this is a factory, not a prison for your Jinyiwei...... Zhu Yunxi was a little speechless, looked at Jiang Xuan's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and asked:

"Anything else?"

Jiang Xuan hesitated slightly, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, Lord Lu asked for a kiss from the Xu Mansion. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhu Yunxi with a complicated expression.

"And then?"

Zhu Yunxi asked quietly.

"Xu Huizu didn't agree."

Jiang Zhen replied: "However, Lao Wang and I analyzed that Lord Lu will definitely ask His Majesty for marriage in person at the court meeting. ”

"You and Lao Wang?"

Zhu Yunxi's expression was a little stunned.

Jiang Zhen nodded calmly; "Wang Jinghong said, now he and I have to rely on the third master to make money, so I have to think more about you."

"Wise!"

Zhu Yunxi slapped Jiang Xuan, jumped up and ran out.

"Third master, where are you going?"

Ruri shouted loudly behind him.

"Rob your daughter-in-law!"

Zhu Yunxi's voice came, and the two people in the room were dumbfounded.

.

Zhu Yunxi trotted all the way out of the palace and went straight to Longxing Restaurant.

Looking at the panting Zhu Yunxi, Qian Duoduo asked a little nervously:

"Long Gongzi, you are ......"

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand, grabbed the teacup on the table and took a big sip, then said:

"Toduogo, someone wants to rob my daughter-in-law, what do you say you should do?"

When Qian Duoduo heard this, he immediately slapped the table and said angrily:

"And this kind of thing?"

"Long Gongzi, if you say something, I will take someone to destroy him immediately!"

He has been operating in Yingtianfu for many years, not to mention his connections, even the people in the rivers and lakes know a lot, so he is naturally confident at the moment.

"Totogo mighty!"

Zhu Yunxi gave a thumbs up and said, "You prepare dozens of people for me, and then invite a band to go with me." ”

"Band?"

Qian Duoduo blinked suspiciously.

"Alas, it's the kind of gongs and drums that take suona outside."

As soon as Zhu Yunxi said this, Qian Duoduo immediately understood, but asked even more suspiciously:

"Young Master Long, aren't you going to fight? What do you want these people to do? ”

"you!"

Zhu Yunxi said angrily: "I'm going to confess!" ”

Now Qian Duoduo was confused again, and he couldn't understand the meaning of Zhu Yunxi's words at all.

Why is it so troublesome to communicate with the ancients...... Zhu Yunxi patted his forehead and decided to keep it simple.

"Let me put it this way, I like one girl, but the other likes this girl too, so I'm going to show her my heart."

"Hey, isn't it just jealousy?"

Qian Duoduo suddenly realized, patted his chest and shouted:

"This matter is wrapped up in me, Childe will sit for a while, and I will arrange it."

After finishing speaking, Qian Duoduo immediately walked out of the house, but he was a little curious:

"The woman who can make Long Gongzi so aggressive, which family's daughter is it?"

After the tea effort.

Zhu Yunxi walked out of Longxing Restaurant and was immediately startled by the team in front of him.

"Young Master Long, I invited the most famous band in Ying Tianfu."

Qian Duoduo pointed to the men and women holding musical instruments in front of him, and then pointed to the sturdy men who were all the same:

"Don't worry, Young Master Long, if any accidents happen, these brothers and I will definitely bear it for you."

Zhu Yunxi nodded with satisfaction, thought about it, and then commanded:

"Go get another banner with a few big words on it."

.

The Mansion of the Duke of Wei.

Xu Huizu walked around a little irritably, although he temporarily shirked Lu Ben's proposal, but it was obvious that the Xu family had been targeted by the forces behind Zhu Yunwen.

"I want to pull my Xu family to stand in line in this way, but if you lose in this battle, what should my Xu family do?"

He thought silently in his heart, what made him even more strange was why Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun had diametrically opposite opinions?

He believed that his sister Xu Miaoyun was definitely thinking about the future of the third sister Miaojin, but Zhu Di's thoughts were intriguing.

Could it be that there is a hidden secret behind this?

As the head of the Xu family, he had to think about these problems.

Just then, the old butler walked in, holding a letter in his hand.

"Master, the second lady has written again."

The old housekeeper still maintained his address to Xu Miaoyun and handed the letter to Xu Huizu.

Xu Huizu opened the envelope, and after a while, his brows were twisted into a big Sichuan character.

The letter is still talking about the marriage of the third sister Xu Miaojin, but Xu Miaoyun's opinion has changed again this time.

She didn't agree to marry Xu Miaojin to either Zhu Yunwen or Zhu Yunxi, but let Xu Huizu choose among the other powerful children in Beijing.

"It's weird."

Xu Huizu was puzzled, and became more and more cautious about this matter.

At the same time, in the inner courtyard of the Duke of Wei.

Xu Miaojin curled up on the bed, frowning, looking preoccupied.

Just two days ago, Lord Lu of Dali Temple came to Xu Mansion to propose marriage for the current emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen.

This matter quickly spread all over the Xu Mansion, and from that day on, Xu Miaojin became like this. I didn't think about tea and dinner all day, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Miss, let's have a bite to eat."

The personal maid also coincidentally held a small bowl of porridge and said distressedly

Xu Miaojin shook his head: "I don't want to eat, I have no appetite." ”

Yiqiao scolded another personal maid with incense, and the latter understood, and said softly to Xu Miaojin:

"Miss, don't you like the little second master?"

These two personal maids also grew up with Xu Miaojin since childhood, although they are nominally master and servant, but in private they are like sisters to Xu Miaojin, so they asked the questions in their hearts directly at this moment.

Xu Miaojin sighed slightly; "I don't know."

She looked at the two little sisters in front of her, and there was some confusion in her eyes.

"In the past, I was looking forward to marrying Brother Yunwen, but now I can't make up my mind."

"Is it because of the little third master?"

Yiqiao blurted out.

As personal maids, they naturally know what happened recently between Zhu Yunxi and Xu Miaojin.

Hearing this, Xu Miaojin's face flushed slightly, but she nodded seriously.

"That guy makes me angry every time, and several times I almost can't help but do something to him, but I often think of him."

She paused, a smile appeared on her face, and said slowly:

"He said he had a girl in mind, and I knew he meant it to me."

"Huh?"

The two personal maids covered their mouths at the same time and exclaimed: "Could it be that the girl is Miss You?" ”

Xu Miaojin nodded:

"He said he didn't remember, but his eyes were staring straight at me."

"Huh?"

The two maids exclaimed at the same time: "Is the little third master so bold?" ”

Flutter!

Xu Miaojin laughed: "There is something even bolder, he actually asked me to draw a portrait of myself, saying that I would hang it in front of the bed and fall asleep watching it every day." ”

"Ah.......h

The two personal maids jumped up directly, and exclaimed again and again:

"How can this be?"

"He's too thick-skinned, how dare he say such shameless things?"

Yiqiao and Ran Xiang were stunned by Xu Miaojin's words, but they didn't expect that the little third master would dare to openly tease his own young lady.

The two looked at Xu Miaojin, and there was a trace of doubt in their hearts: "Isn't Miss angry?" ”

Xu Miaojin glared at the two of them, and shouted:

"It's just a painting, but it's not a real person!"

Yiqiao and Burning Xiang glanced at each other, and immediately pounced on Xu Miaojin together.

"Come on, miss, do you like the little third master?"

"I mean, miss, you don't want to think about it, it turns out that you can't make up your mind."

The two of them asked in a row, each reaching out and scratching Xu Miaojin's squeaky nest.

"Hee-hee...... Don't make a fuss! ”

Xu Miaojin gasped again and again, and the three of them suddenly made a mess on the bed.

But at this moment, there was a burst of drumming in the sky, mixed with the shouting of a man.

The three of them stopped suddenly, listened intently, looked at each other for a moment, and then jumped up with a bang.
