There were frequent congratulatory voices around, but Lu Yuzhu couldn't be happy.

After everyone dispersed, Lu Yuzhu also walked out of the corridor under the guidance of the palace maid and went to the palace gate.

Cuixin followed Lu Yuzhu closely, and when she saw her sad face, she said, "What's wrong with the shopkeeper?" Are you not happy to get the Imperial Merchant Token? ”

Lu Yuzhu let out a long sigh.

"There's something strange about this."

"Strange? Are you saying that someone is secretly helping you? ”

"Hmmm......"

She nodded.

Cui Xin didn't quite understand the situation, so she didn't continue.

The palace is spacious, with uniform floor tiles, and is sometimes patrolled by Praetorian guards.

Meng Qing was dressed in the clothes of a palace maid, and when she saw Lu Yuzhu in front of her, she chased after her.

"Bamboo!"

Lu Yuzhu looked back in response.

Meng Qing was running towards her with her skirt in her hand, and the east wind whistled by, raising the girl's black and scattered sideburns.

"Your Majesty!"

Meng Qing hurriedly pounced and sealed Lu Yuzhu's mouth.

"Shut up, I snuck out! Taifu doesn't know yet! ”

Lu Yuzhu closed his mouth in shock, and his eyes moved from side to side to see if anyone heard.

Meng Qing made sure she wouldn't shout before letting go of her mouth.

"You just run out like this, and you don't care about the major affairs of the DPRK and China?"

She pursed her lips, "Just a few hours, could it be that the court can't function without me?" ”

"Yes."

Meng Qing pulled Lu Zhuzhu and walked towards the palace gate.

"I haven't congratulated you yet, you successfully won the first place and won the token of the first imperial merchant of Chu State."

Speaking of this, Lu Yuzhu is so angry.

She bared her teeth and grinned: "Say! Did you collude with Liu Shulai to lie to me! ”

"What collusion, what cheating! I didn't do it, you slandered me! ”

Meng Qing hurriedly denied it.

Lu Yuzhu still didn't believe it, "Then why did he change his mind temporarily?" ”

"Maybe it's really the wrong business?"

"How is that possible!"

Meng Qing chuckled and said, "Okay, don't think about it so much!" If you want me to see, the rouge and gold and silver you present are many times better than those merchants, and I think you deserve the honor of this imperial merchant. ”

She stopped half-convinced.

"Really?"

"Naturally, if it's true, can the words of a king of Chu be false? I will give you a plaque for all the shops in Beijing, and your status among the merchants in Beijing will be unmatched in the future. ”

Lu Yuzhu Meixuan said: "Don't be too biased. ”

"I don't take sides, who do you favor? Don't worry, there is a day when I am here, and there is a day when you have a good day. ”

Lu Yuzhu was very moved after hearing this, "Your Majesty, thank you." ”

"Thanks? Do you have to treat me to a meal? ”

"Qianjin Building?"

"Let's go!"

Saying that, Meng Qing swaggered out of the palace with Lu Yuzhu with his waist card.

The carriage of the Lu family stopped outside the palace gate, and the three of them helped them get into the carriage and then went to the Qianjin Building on Ningyang Street.

Along the way, the market is bustling with hustle and bustle, with vendors and shops shouting one after another, and a few naughty drooping children running around the market.

Meng Qing actually came to Lu Yuzhu not only to congratulate her on her promotion to the imperial businessman, but also for a big event.

She said, "Zhu Zhu, how old are you now?" ”

"Twenty and two, what's wrong?"

"Do you have a favorite son now?"

Lu Yuzhu shook his head, "No, what's the matter, what the hell did you say!" ”

She shook Meng Qing's arm.

Meng Qing went straight to the point and said: "That's the case, I have a cousin, who is now Dali Siqing in the middle of the court, with a noble character, honest and honest, and his appearance is hard to find in Yujing, cold and good-looking, do you want to think about it?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Yuzhu's cheeks turned red in an instant, and it was so hot that it seemed like it was about to emit smoke.

Cui Xin was overjoyed: "Shopkeeper, what the emperor said, do you want to think about it?" Recently, that Pei Gongzi has been annoying you every day, if you are the wife of Dali Siqing, he will not dare to bother you again! ”

Lu Yuzhu listened to Cuixin's nod, and reacted.

"But after all, I was born in Shangjia, and your cousin is Dali Siqing, I'm afraid I'm ......"

She hooked her lips and said, "What's this, can't I personally write an edict and give marriage?" ”

"Wait and see, I'm not in a hurry."

Meng Qing looked at her, "What's not in a hurry!" In a few days, the Gu family will hold a spring banquet, you can try it, if you don't look down on him, it's okay to look at others? ”

She took out an invitation from her arms and put it in Lu Yuzhu's palm.

Lu Yuzhu opened it and looked at it, and he was also thinking about something in his heart.

But as soon as she thought of Pei Jiuzhi, she resolutely agreed.

"Okay, I'll go."

Meng Qing got her answer, and then smiled with satisfaction.

The clouds are fluttering, and the early spring sun shines on the upturned cornices and arches, emitting a bright and charming multicolored light.

The carriage stopped outside the Qianjin Building, and several people got off the carriage one after another.

The location of Qianjin Building is prosperous, the Zhu Gate is wide open, and there is an endless stream of guests coming in and out.

Meng Qing walked up the steps with Lu Yuzhu, but was inadvertently bumped into by a drunken customer.

She frowned in displeasure and was about to scold.

But I can't even say it when it comes to my mouth......

The drunken guest's cheeks were red, his body was confused with the smell of drunken wine, his posture was frustrated, and his eyes were in a trance.

She recognized the man at a glance.

"Qi Yuan?"

Meng Qing was stunned.

She never expected to meet Qi Yuan here, and she would be drunk like this.

Qi Yuan's eyes were blurred, he couldn't recognize Meng Qing's appearance, and he staggered a step.

He raised his hand and apologized: "Sorry, I didn't look at the road......"

With that, he turned and left.

As soon as Meng Qing wanted to chase after him, he was stopped by Lu Yuzhu.

She said, "You know him?" ”

"Yes, he is the son of the Marquis of Wuyang, the little Marquis of Qi."

"He's a drunkard who is actually the famous little Marquis of Qi?"

Lu Yuzhu almost didn't believe it, if he hadn't followed him out on the street today, he wouldn't have believed that this person was Qi Yuan.

Meng Qing stared at her, "Can this still be fake?" ”

She helped Meng Qing into the Qianjin Building, stepped on the suspension ladder and walked slowly upstairs.

"Not really. This man often came to me to buy drunk, and he refused to leave until the third watch in the middle of the night, and the handymen in my shop were very annoying to him, and if it weren't for his money, he would have been kicked out. ”

"He often comes to get drunk?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"No, his fiancée is my eldest sister, she disappeared a year ago."

"I really didn't expect that the dignified little marquis would be so infatuated......"

Meng Qing was noncommittal.

The same is true of Qi Yuan in his previous life, he disappeared early. It's just that in this life he is different, he doesn't look for short-sightedness, but he is no different from death like this.

It's just that I don't know if Marquis Wu Yanghou and the eldest princess Wenzhao will feel sorry for him when they see such Qi Yuan after they come back from touring the mountains and rivers?

Meng Qing didn't know, but it was time to send someone to find them, otherwise Qi Yuan would be wasted like this!
