Chapter 257: Only four years younger
Seeing Liu Chuanzhi's serious expression, King Runan turned the jade wrench in his hand and asked lightly, "That's your own daughter, and you are willing to do it?" ”
Liu Chuanzhi jumped away, his face couldn't hide his emptiness, and he said in a low voice, "The little girl is also willing to marry the prince......
King Runan lowered his head and sneered, leaned lazily on the soft pillow behind him, and said in a deep voice, "That's it, since you come to ask, this king will go to see this lady of Yongcheng Hou." ”
Liu Chuanzhi's body was buried lower, and his tone was dyed with a little joy, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”
The king of Runan glanced at him, raised his hand in exchange for the steward beside him, and commanded in a low voice, "Send a few men over and talk to the widow about the rules." ”
"Yes."
The words are divided into two ends
Bai Ji stepped into the courtyard quickly, with a smile on his face, "Madam, the slave is back." ”
Fang Xu sat on the desk, fiddling with the incense ashes in the stove with his bare hands, and didn't raise his head when he heard the words, and answered softly, "So happy, what happened?" ”
Bai Ji rushed to the table, poured himself a cup of tea with a big grin, raised his head and drank it, and then replied with a smile, "Madame asked the slave maid to investigate the Peng family, and she already has eyebrows now." ”
Fang Xu treated the two maids kindly, and naturally acquiesced to their small actions.
Fang Xu closed the top of the stove, a little smile flashed in his eyes, and asked softly, "What did you find out?" ”
Bai Ji stood beside her, took out a booklet from his arms, flipped through a dozen pages, and whispered, "As Madame expected, this Peng is really not an honest person. ”
"The informant sent out by the slave maid threw a lot of money at Wujia Village, and finally pried open the mouths of those people."
"According to what they said, Peng Xiuying went to the village later, and she was pregnant before she came, and gave birth to a baby boy, which is only four years younger than the eldest young lady in terms of time."
Hearing this, Fang Xu's hand paused in mid-air, and he looked at Bai Ji in some surprise, "Only four years younger?" ”
"Yes." Bai Ji nodded heavily, as if he was afraid that people would hear him, so he lowered his voice and said, "Peng Xiuying led her son alone, and had a hard time, and then found a man, who was a butcher in the village, surnamed Fan, with a single name and a dragon character. ”
"Fan Long didn't care that Peng's body was dirty, he married her, and the two worked together for a few years, during which Peng's was pregnant again, but unfortunately he didn't keep it, and he heard the people in the village say that it was a baby girl who had become a shape."
"Later, for some reason, Peng Xiuying suddenly made a fuss, left with her son, and threw a large amount of silver to the people in the village, which was counted as hush money, only saying that she had found relatives at home, and did not mention it again."
Bai Ji closed the booklet with a serious face, "When the people in the village saw that Peng's hand was so generous, they guessed that she was not an ordinary woman's dependent. ”
Fang Xu glanced at the booklet in her hand, smiled and quipped, "Your book is quite interesting." ”
Bai Ji grinned, put the booklet into his cuffs, and said softly, "This is all named by Mrs. to check, and the slaves and maids have written them down one by one, if anyone in it makes Mrs. unhappy in the future, the slaves and maids will be able to pinch his handle as soon as possible." ”
Good guys, what's the difference between this and Death Note?
The little girl was straightforward, and raised her little face seriously, "Everyone who stays in the book is dead, and Mrs. will be alive and well." ”
Fang Xu shook his head and smiled, and said quietly, "I'm used to seeing a living Bodhisattva, but it's the first time I've seen a living Yama King." ”
Bai Ji pursed his lips and smiled sheepishly.
Fang Xu straightened his expression, put his hand on the table, and said slowly, "In this way, most of the children of the Peng family are Liu Chuanzhi's. ”
Bai Ji nodded busily and whispered, "The slave thinks so too." ”
Fang Xu was silent for a moment, and then had an idea in his heart, "Go and find that butcher, don't say much, just tell him that the Peng family is in the capital, and they live with their relatives who have a lot of money." ”
Bai Ji's eyes lit up, and he instantly realized, "Yes, the slave will go!" ”
"Wait." Fang Xu opened his mouth to call her, his eyebrows and eyes dyed with a little smile, "Go to Suzi to get some silver money and buy two chicken legs to make up for yourself, these days of running inside and out, it is also hard for you." ”
When Bai Ji heard that there were chicken legs to eat, he couldn't suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, "Yes, thank you, madam!" ”
Looking at Bai Ji, who was running away, Fang Xu smiled helplessly, his eyes fell on the bonsai in front of him, and he was secretly distracted.

Splendid Girls' School
Mr. was unwell and got out of school early, Xie Wanzhou sorted out the bamboo slips, walked out of the academy accompanied by Zhu Tao, and got into the carriage of the Houfu.
As the car approached Dongshi, a familiar aroma poured into the carriage.
"Stop."
Xie Wanzhou opened his mouth quietly, and the coachman immediately grabbed the reins and asked in a low voice, "Miss, is there something wrong?" ”
Zhu Tao was also puzzled, tilting her head to look at her.
Xie Wanzhou's eyes were soft, the smile on the corner of her mouth was faint, and she said softly, "Is it fragrant and fried chestnuts outside?" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Tao reflexively opened the curtains, looked out, and took a look, and really saw that the stall not far away was full of fried chestnuts.
Zhu Tao looked surprised, turned around and said, "Miss is really a god, it's really that family." ”
Xie Wanzhou's eyebrows were crooked, and she said softly, "Mother loves to eat chestnuts from this house, get out of the car with me and buy some for her." ”
Zhu Tao hurriedly helped her out of the carriage and said with a smile, "Miss is filial, and even Madame's preferences are clearly remembered." ”
The two of them walked one after the other towards the chestnut stall, it was cold, there were not many people on the street, and there were only four or five people in the stall that used to have a long queue.
"Girl, the chestnuts you want, hold them firm, and come back after they are delicious!"
Xie Wanzhou paid the money and was about to return to the car, but was stopped by a man who appeared out of nowhere.
The man is dressed in a brocade robe, the embroidery on the head is all outlined with gold thread, the crown is pinned with beaded flowers, and even the neckline is also hung with thumb-sized pearls, which is indescribably rich.
The man swept Xie Wanzhou up and down, hooked the corner of one side of his lips, and asked in a deep voice, "You are so good-looking, whose girl are you?" ”
Xie Wanzhou frowned slightly, took two steps back, and asked softly, "Who are you, why are you blocking my way?" ”
"Presumptuous!"
The little guy next to the man took two steps forward and raised his voice to scold.
Zhu Tao's heart tightened, and he hurriedly protected Xie Wanzhou, "What are you going to do in broad daylight!" ”
The man snorted, glared at the little guy rather unhappily, and said in a low voice, "Shut up, if you scare the girl, be careful of your skin." ”
The little girl sneered on his face and apologized in a low voice, "The little one is to see that this girl is disrespectful to you......"
Zhu Tao was angry, and opened her mouth to reply, "You are blocking the road for no reason, and you are not allowed to ask my young lady, how can there be such a truth in the world?" ”
"Quasi-asking, who said that you are not allowed to ask?" The man glanced at the little girl, then looked at Zhu Tao with a smile, saw that she was carrying a cloth bag in her hand, and raised his eyebrows, "The girl is a student of Splendid Academy?" ”
