In the yamen of Shuntian Mansion, several people from the Wang Governor's Mansion are still testing Luo Chong with various questions, in fact, they have basically determined that Yuan Gongzi's disappearance case was done by Luo Chong, but they can't produce any evidence.

The current questioning is obviously just delaying time, during which Yuan Erye went out and came back immediately. Luo Chong could guess that he had sent someone back to ask the head of the household to come over immediately to put pressure on him.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for an official in a python robe to break in from the outside, less than fifty years old, he had already been fat, but he was not fat, or he had a big belly.

"You're Luo Dong?"

After coming in, he looked around, his eyes focused on Luo Chong's face, and he asked unceremoniously in a deep voice: "You kidnapped my son?"

"Nobody seems to say that. ”

In the face of these second-grade masters, Luo Chong didn't get up to salute, just sat down like that, and slowly replied: "At present, they are only suspicious, but there is no evidence. ”

"Evidence?"

Lord Yuan of the Ministry of Household Affairs sneered: "I am here, so I don't need any evidence! The reason for the matter, we know it well, let's say, how can we be willing to let my son back, and put forward conditions." ”

The reason why he can still speak to Luo Chong in a negotiation posture is mainly due to two scruples: one is Princess Yongning behind him, and the other is his own strength.

He has been working for many years, how can this person's mind be simple, on the surface it seems to be in a hurry, but on the way here, everything has been taken into account.

can't be forced too hard, otherwise, not only will you completely tear your face with Princess Yongning, but you may even force the other party to die and directly endanger your son's life.

Let's talk about the conditions, and it is best to negotiate a solution.

Luo Chong said: "Since Lord Yuan has said that the reason for the matter is well known, then you should understand what to do to keep Ling Gongzi safe and sound." ”

The meaning of the words is: You go to the emperor and find a reason to put this marriage away, in that case, I won't bother to kidnap your son.

It's just that this kind of talk can only hint, not be said explicitly, so as not to be caught by the other party verbally.

Lord Yuan suddenly fell silent, quickly weighing the pros and cons of the matter in his heart, he thought that Luo Chong was negotiating with him on behalf of Princess Yongning.

In other words, it is of great benefit to the Yuan family that the second son becomes a concubine, which is equivalent to becoming an in-law with the emperor, no longer a simple relationship between monarchs and ministers, and it is also equivalent to an extra talisman.

Although the master of the horse is not good, and if you marry the princess, you can't have other women, but the second boy of our family is not lustful, and he is willing to marry a big beauty like the eldest princess, and on his side, this marriage is not reluctant.

So for the Yuan family, this is a great joy, if you give up like this, not only may it anger the emperor, but it will also be a pity in terms of interests.

Luo Chong could see through his psychological state, so he smiled lightly: "What is Li Lingzhi, his life can't be saved, and he is still thinking about those benefits." I don't want to think about it, if people are gone, where will those benefits begin?"

"Meaning, is this the only way to go?"

Lord Yuan's face was gloomy and he asked in a low voice.

"I don't know. ”

Luo Chong spread his hands: "Your family's road, you go by yourself." ”

"General Luo, the princess always has to get married, do you think she can protect you for a lifetime?"

Lord Yuan's words are a threat: If you offend me Yuan, how long can you go in the officialdom in the future?

The household department, the money bag of the whole country is in my hands, and the court and the court, except for those cabinet ministers with the most seniority, who dares not to give me Yuan someone's face?

You are a four-rank general, the backer is just a princess, and you are not even the prince today, so you dare to go against me, I really don't understand, what do you think?

"For a lifetime?"

Luo Chong replied: "In this situation, Lord Yuan still thinks that you can be safe and stable for a lifetime, I don't know whether to say that you are long-term or short-sighted." ”

Immediately afterwards, his gaze turned gloomy: "In troubled times, force decides to be a qiē, whether it is to lead troops to fight, or to wander around as a martial arts master, I can live longer and more stable than you, no matter what the world becomes! ”

Lord Yuan's momentum froze, and he was speechless for a moment.

That's right, this is what he has the most scruples about, this Luo Dong is not only a military general of the imperial court, but also a martial arts master, even if he has no official position, he can still be high and free, and his life is not much worse than being an official, and he may be better.

In other words, his so-called official authority can't scare him at all, nor can he scare any martial arts grandmaster on the rivers and lakes.

Other martial arts masters, Lord Yuan has not seen it, so he said that Su Wancheng, when he saw the emperor, he didn't worship him, and no one could do anything about her.

And this Luo Dong, it has been rumored recently that it is likely to be even more powerful than Su Wancheng.

Lord Yuan doesn't have a little foundation in martial arts, and he doesn't know how powerful this 'powerful' is, so he can only say that Su Wancheng doesn't care about his own household book, so this Luo Dong seems to be more qualified.

Headache!

Chivalry violates the ban with martial arts, these people who practice martial arts are really damned!

Seeing that Luo Chongniao didn't bird himself, Lord Yuan flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "There is no reason to talk to a martial artist, I will go to the emperor for comment!"

"I don't send it. ”

Luo Chong smiled, didn't even look at his back, turned his face to the prefect of Wang and said, "Lord Wang, can I go back?"

Governor Wang had a cold face and nodded.

Luo Chong stood up and said: "Wang Daran, don't blame me for not reminding you, if there are similar disappearances in the future, don't invite me over again, you can't gain anything, except for a sulking stomach." ”

Then he added with a sincere face: "This is not sarcasm, but really sympathizes with you." You, the prefect of the third grade, are sandwiched in the middle and don't make good money, which is really pitiful. ”

Then he walked away.

The last sentence really spoke to the heart of the prefect Wang, and he also sighed silently: That's right, if I invite you again, I will be stupid.

That afternoon, Luo Chong's side was quite calm, and he didn't know what was going on in the palace, anyway, the next morning, Princess Yongning came again, and when she saw Luo Chong, she shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Yesterday, my father went to my place, he was furious, and he dropped something, scolded me for being an unfilial daughter, and almost beat me." ”

"What did you say besides getting angry?" Luo Chong asked with a smile.

"I didn't say much else. ”

Yongning shook his head lightly: "Before leaving, I only said one word, put Yuan Ergongzi back, this marriage has been canceled, and I will no longer ask about my marriage in the future, but ......"

But what, needless to say, on the surface, it seems that Yongning won and won his so-called freedom to marry, but it also means that the relationship between father and daughter has also been reduced to the lowest point, and the emperor's meaning is obviously: Just don't have your daughter!

Looking back on the past, the father, the queen, and himself, those laughter and laughter when they were together, Yongning's heart was naturally very uncomfortable, his mother died, and now, he has lost his father's love again......

"How can I comfort you?" Luo Chong asked gently.

"No, I don't. ”

Yongning shook his head lightly: "I don't regret it, after all, I'm not for myself." ”

There is a very deep meaning hidden in this sentence, at least it is to say: my marriage must play a role in saving the current situation of the country, so I have been looking for that person.

The country is bigger than the family, and it is far more than the love of the parents.

"So, put that second son of Yuan back now?"

Luo Chongcai didn't care how sad others were, and asked with a heartless smile: "Don't worry, if your father repents, I will tie up Yuan Ergongzi again, and next time I will lower his treatment and change to a desert island where birds don't." ”

"Desert island?"

Yongning didn't understand much, and asked, "This time, where are you keeping him?"

"You don't care about this. ”

Luo Chong waved his hand: "Anyway, for now, Island Master Yuan is doing pretty well." ”

It's not bad, Yuan Ergongzi ate the wrong kind of wild fruit on that island, and he was slightly poisoned, and he was about to collapse from diarrhea, and he was lying on the beach humming.

Fortunately, he caught a big fish with a fishing net yesterday, and he still has some stock in his stomach to consume, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to stand up again.

Yongning didn't ask any more, just nodded: "Let him go home, after all, he is also innocent." ”

"There are too many innocent people in this world. For him, it was a workout. ”

Luo Chong replied: "With this experience, if I hear which princess the emperor wants to marry him in the future, I guess I will flee the mainland as soon as possible and choose a more suitable island by myself." ”

"I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

Yongning was a little exhausted and weak, and wanted to leave, but he was a little reluctant, so he sat down slowly, looked at him with a soft and strange look, and asked in a low voice: "What if you scare everyone else like this, what if no one dares to marry me in the future?"

What was the answer she wanted to hear?

Anyway, it's not this sentence that came out of Luo Chong's mouth at this moment: "It's not bad to be single all your life, you have the final say, you don't have to quarrel with your husband all the time, and your children will not be obedient when they grow up, and you won't even listen to whoever you marry." ”

Yongning had just touched the teacup, and when he heard this, he almost threw it on his head.

However, Her Royal Highness the princess has a strong heart and is not so easy to be hit, she has already regarded someone as the target of conquest, and she has long expected that there will be a lot of difficulty in this process.

A little setback is nothing, Yongning's Qianqianyu hand just trembled slightly, then slowly raised, took a sip quite elegantly, and then said: "Although you have done me a great favor in this matter, the price is that my father also has a very bad opinion of you, thinking that you are bold and reckless, wild and untamable, and not an easy courtier to control." ”

"The price?"

Luo Chong's fingers tapped lightly on the table: "If he understands the true meaning of the price, he will not make the Jin Dynasty into this field, no matter what, it will be better than now." ”

Yongning didn't want to endure it anymore, so he asked him along with this sentence: "Then let's find a way to save it together, is it okay?" I know, you can do it, you have the ability." ”
