Ling Chu didn't expect Ning Chuyi to let people secretly protect him, "My lord has a heart, but I have a means to protect myself, so my lord should let them go back." ”

The two guards felt that it was useless for them to stay, and Miss Ling didn't need their protection at all.

Just when they thought that Ning Chuyi would take them away, they heard him say to Ling Chu, "It's okay, haven't you invited a guard yet, anyway, they are idle and idle, it's better to let them stay with you as a guard first." ”

Ling Chu hesitated for a moment before responding, "Then I won't be polite to adults." ”

She did want to hire some guards, but it was hard to find someone with good martial arts and loyalty.

Ning Chuyi motioned to Wei Feng to send the flower thief to Dali Temple, and did not forget to instruct him, "Miss Ling caught Xia Liu, you remember to take the reward and send it to her." ”

In order to catch the flower thief, the government offered a reward of 15,000 taels.

Originally, the government did not offer so much silver.

After the girls who were defiled by Xia Liu committed suicide, their families personally went to Dali Temple with silver to ask for an increase in the amount of the reward in order to catch the flower thief as soon as possible.

After Xia Liu heard Ning Chuyi's words, he was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood again.

When he came over this time, he didn't pick the flowers, he was beaten half to death, and his descendants were abolished.

What made him even more angry was that this was equivalent to him personally holding 16,000 taels and throwing himself into the net in front of that Ling girl.

Xia Liu was so angry that he couldn't help but suspect that the person who bought him didn't have an enmity with Miss Ling, but with him!

Wei Feng glanced at him sympathetically, and his hand fell with a knife, slashing and fainting.

Carry it and go to Dali Temple to exchange silver.

Ning Chuyi also left with Yin Xu.

The two guards looked at each other helplessly, thinking of the hammer that had just smashed the flower thief, and felt cold in their lower bodies.

Miss Ling is a ruthless person, they have to be careful in the future, and they must not offend her.

Everyone left, and Ling Chu asked Gong's mother to take two guards to the front yard to settle down, and ordered the others to continue the night patrol.

After everything was arranged, she went back to continue to rest.

The next day, in the palace.

After the eunuch announced his retreat from the court, the officials of the lower court walked out in twos and threes.

The second prince walked a few steps outside, suddenly stopped sideways, and said to the officials walking aside, "Zhao Guogong, I heard that the prince of your mansion plans to take the eldest daughter of the former household secretary as a concubine, but is there such a thing?" ”

Zhao Guogong didn't know why the second prince suddenly mentioned this in front of so many people, and saw that everyone was looking at him curiously.

can only vaguely say, "That Dong family did my wife a favor a few years ago, and a few days ago she came to the door, saying that she couldn't bear to suffer with them, and begged my wife to accept her for the dog."

My wife was soft-hearted, and when she saw her crying sadly, it was difficult to refuse. ”

The second prince nodded, "I see, but... I heard that the Ling girl was fostered in the Taoist temple since she was a child, and she didn't understand the rules and etiquette at all, and she often contradicted her parents and family in the house.

Because of her disobedience, she even set up a female household by herself and moved to live on Qintai Street with her maid and son-in-law. ”

Seeing Zhao Guogong's ugly face, the second prince was satisfied, and then said, "I also heard from the housekeeper who bought in the house, and there are rumors on the street that last night, someone saw a man enter the house of the Ling girl.

And according to the people who saw it, the man looked very similar to the Xia Liu on the sea fishing warrant posted by the government. ”

As soon as the second prince's words fell, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Zhao Guogong.

Because Xia Liu's name is so special, many people still remember him as the flower thief.

"Zhao Guogong, although your wife is not good at refusing that Dong family. But this... If you force the prince to accept that Ling girl, aren't you afraid of him making trouble? ”

Zhao Guogong's face was gloomy, and he kept thinking in his heart, the second prince deliberately lost his face in front of so many people, could it be that he had done something recently to make him unhappy, so he beat him in public?

Ning Chuyi was walking behind, listening to the whispers of others, and said expressionlessly, "Second prince, it seems that the steward in your house has to check it carefully." ”

The second prince's face turned cold, "What does Lord Ning mean by this?" ”

"As far as I know, before Xia Liu climbed the outer wall of Miss Ling's mansion, she was beaten to death by the guards and maids in her mansion, and she was sent to Dali Temple overnight.

This will, I'm afraid that I will even get the reward silver.

If the second prince doesn't believe it, he can send someone to see if Xia Liu is in the prison of Dali Temple. ”

I didn't expect what happened last night, and the second prince knew about it so quickly.

The screams of the flower picker last night were too loud, and many people on Qintai Street must be speculating about what happened to Miss Ling's house.

Seeing that the second prince's face was dark, Ning Chuyi kindly added, "There are many people who know about this matter, and the manager of your mansion dares to blatantly distort the facts to you, it seems that he has done a lot of things to deceive his superiors and subordinates."

This kind of slave and bully the master, the second prince should check it out. ”

"Thank you, Lord Ning, for reminding me." The second prince pretended to thank him gratefully.

followed by a playful expression, "I didn't expect Lord Ning to know so clearly about that Ling girl, it seems that he usually pays attention to her." ”

"Lord Ning, I heard that Miss Ling is good-looking, could it be... Are you taking a fancy to someone? ”

"Lord Ning is twenty-eight this year, and people who are as old as you have already become a family, and they have given birth to several children.

At your age, if you drag it out any longer, Ning Guogong and his wife are afraid that they will really be sad. ”

At the back corner, the emperor was listening quietly.

As soon as the second prince's words fell, before Ning Chuyi could speak, the emperor immediately turned his head sideways and glanced at the chief eunuch who was following behind.

The manager bowed and nodded, shook the dust in his hand, and walked out of the corner quickly.

Seeing that the officials were looking back at him with anxiety, the governor turned a blind eye.

Respectfully walked in front of Ning Chuyi, bowed his hand and saluted, and then said, "Lord Ning, the emperor summoned me, and please come with me." ”

Ning Chuyi's brows frowned almost invisibly, and when he saw that everyone was looking over this side with a curious expression, he could only raise his feet and walk back.

The second prince looked at his back with heavy eyes, his fists clenched, and quickly released again.

What he said just now was deliberately said in order to reach the emperor's ears.

Isn't my father looking forward to that bastard getting married, and it's best to give him that Ling Chu.

That way, the bastard doesn't want to marry another helpful wife.

If he robbed the concubine of the prince of Zhao Guo, he would inevitably offend the Duke of Zhao's mansion.

This is also equivalent to cutting off the alliance between the Ningguo Mansion and the Zhao Guogongfu.

The Imperial Study.

The emperor looked at Ning Chuyi, who was neither humble nor arrogant, standing in front of him, and his heart was indescribable.

After asking a few words about the Jinyi Guard, the emperor pretended to say inadvertently, "You like Ling Mao's eldest granddaughter, do you need me to help you get married?" ”

Ning Chuyi's face was expressionless, "The emperor misunderstood, the minister doesn't have a favorite girl." The minister said... Do not marry for life. ”
