Chapter 686

Liu Mingzhi looked at the third princess in a daze, and asked a princess to go out to see if the prince's body was in good health. What kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd?

The third princess had an unnatural blush on the face stared at by Liu Mingzhi, and she forgot to pick up the food with the hand holding the chopsticks.

"Miss San, besides visiting Minggong's body, is there anything else Mr. Huang wants you to do?"

Liu Mingzhi never believed that the emperor would let a princess go to the south of the Yangtze River just because he was worried about the health of King Huainan. Let alone whether it conforms to the custom, can the princess leave the palace privately? From an ancient point of view, women belong to yin and care about a person The body should send a prince here.

Ordinary wealthy families even avoid this point, Liu Mingzhi doesn't think the royal family doesn't care, it should be said that the royal family taboos this point more than anyone else.

"Father asked me to urge my uncle Jiangnan's tax bank. The Jiangnan tax bank has been overdue for half a year and has not been shipped to the treasury. Father is worried that something has gone wrong!"

"Tax bank?"

"Exactly!"

"What did King Huainan say? As far as I know, Jiangnan's tax money has always been the first to be paid to the treasury and has never been overdue. Although there are rebels in the White Lotus Sect, it will not affect the tax money."

As an official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Liu Mingzhi knows better about the tax and bank situation of various state capitals than him. There must be something wrong with a state government that has never slacked off and suddenly overdue the tax bank.

The third princess looked at Liu Mingzhi in embarrassment: "I haven't seen the emperor yet!"

"Haven't seen it yet? Did the third princess just come to Jiangnan?"

"I just arrived the day before yesterday, so I went to Sister Ya to catch up on the old days, and I met you right after I came out!"

"Why did you say that I don't know what happened in Jinling in the past two months when I just arrived at the Three Princesses the day before yesterday? I thought that the Three Princesses have already arrived for two months!"

The third princess looked at Qi Ya with a faint smile: "Of course it was Sister Ya who told me. The emperor said that letting me come to Jiangnan to relax is the main thing, and the rest are secondary, so I didn't rush to meet the emperor. Uncle, I plan to pay my respects to my uncle's palace after having a full meal at Yuyanzhai!"

Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Ya in surprise, and Qi Ya nodded slightly to prove it for the third princess.

Liu Mingzhi didn't doubt what the third princess said, he doubted the emperor's intentions, but Liu Mingzhi didn't like to ask too much about matters related to the royal family.

The room fell silent, only the slight sound of chewing could be heard.

From time to time, he looked at Qi Ya and the two, hoping that the two of them would leave after drinking and eating so that they could check some unknown places in Mama Jiang's room.

Because no one talked and concentrated on eating, the three of them had filled their stomachs early and looked at each other.

Liu Mingzhi had no choice but to break the embarrassing atmosphere: "Miss San, Sister Ya, let's leave now that we're full. I still have some things to deal with and I can't accompany you two to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River!"

"The night is getting dark, did our sisters follow the servants? You can't let us two little girls go back in the dark, can you? You can rest assured of our safety? You know that Jiangnan is not peaceful during this time!"

Qi Ya couldn't help being a little angry when he saw that Young Master Liu, who was usually quite smart, had such a lack of eyesight at this time.

It's true that those who should be smart are not smart, and those who shouldn't be smart are blindly smart.

Young Master Liu looked back at Mother Jiang's bed and nodded hesitantly: "Sister Ya was joking, so I will escort the two of you back to your home. What I mean is that I don't have extra time to accompany you to visit the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River. It’s not about abandoning the two of you, the third lady has a noble status, how dare the younger brother carry it!”

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, if you are really busy with the emperor's life, it's fine, you can't delay the big event because of me and Sister Ya, you still have to rely on credit, let's go back!"

"Please!"

"Miss Xue!"

"Master Liu, you have finished eating!"

"It tastes good, no wonder there are so many customers, how much money?"

Xue Bizhu smiled and shook his head: "Master Liu just joked, it is a little girl's honor that you can eat at the little girl's restaurant, how dare you ask for money, this meal will be treated like a little girl!"

Xue Bizhu is an exquisite person, knowing that having a relationship with Young Master Liu is far more important than the money for a meal, so he generously sells his favors to show his affection to Young Master Liu.

Liu Mingzhi didn't say much and took out a certain amount of money and put it in Xue Bizhu's hands: "I just praised you for doing a good business and you are like this. You will be exempted from me, and the others will be free. What kind of restaurant do you open? One yard, you just keep it!"

Xue Bizhu looked at the money in his hand in embarrassment: "Master Liu"

Liu Mingzhi waved his hands hastily: "Okay, that's it, I'll take my leave first." Liu Mingzhi suddenly remembered what happened in Jiang's mother's room and waved to Xue Bizhu.

"Master Liu"

Liu Mingzhi moved closer to Xue Bizhu's half-foot position and muttered in a low voice: "Clean up Mama Jiang's room, I may come back later, wait for me there when you are done working! It's done!"

"what?"

Looking at the backs of Young Master Liu and the three of them, Xue Bizhu's face was a little hot, and her snow-white cheeks couldn't help being stained with a blush.

"Sister Bizhu is still watching, you are far away, and if you look at you again, you will almost go blind!"

"Sister Lingyi, when did you come?"

Huang Lingyi uttered a loud sackcloth with an apron on her chest and waved the spoon in her hand, probably because she had just finished work with a trace of sweat on her forehead: "I came when you were staring at Master Liu infatuatedly, and I called you a few times." You didn’t even agree to me, I said, don’t you like Master Liu?”

Xue Bizhu shook his head in a panic: "No, don't talk nonsense!"

"Why don't you panic? Your eyes are erratic, your face is red and your fingers can't help but tangle together. You must be lying!"

"Nothing, what do you know, little girl, let's see how I deal with you!"

A group of guests who watched the two fight in the lobby laughed lightly.

The two chased after each other and fought for a while before realizing that the situation was wrong and hurriedly stopped.

"Guests, I'm really sorry."

Everyone laughed and shook their heads, teased casually, and ended the farce.

"Sister, listen to my sister's persuasion. This is not what it used to be. Mr. Liu has become Mr. Liu. Our background is not worthy of him. It's best if we don't have affection. If we have affection, we should keep it in our hearts. Your affection may bring trouble to Master Liu!"

Xue Bizhu stared blankly with a faint smile: "Sister, I know that being a person is important because of self-knowledge, and you are destined to be a person who is not on the same road. You talk about this fate is really impermanent. The once notorious Mr. Liu in the south of the Yangtze River has become a great man. People, famous scholars who are famous all over the world are wolf-hearted things!"

Huang Lingyi's pretty face sank: "Sister, don't mention those two guys who are not as good as beasts anymore, just think that our sisters were blind before, and they will look down on our sisters' backgrounds after they have become prosperous. What are you talking about? Human pillow, a bit of red lips are tasted by thousands of people. Is it disgusting or not, are we nobles so unbearable in their eyes? I don’t even think about how they would have the glory they are today if it weren’t for the money we gave to help them go to Beijing to take the exam!”

"Okay, don't complain, people's hearts are like a belly, and you don't know if it's red or black unless you see it with your own eyes!"

"You can understand."

"Lingyi closes early today. I have prepared hot water. I want to take a bath."

"Third Princess, it's getting dark at night, I won't stay any longer, you should go to bed early, I will leave!"

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

"Thank you, I will leave!"

Liu Mingzhi closed the door and exited the inner courtyard of the Qi Mansion and walked to the front hall. He wanted to rush back to Yuyanzhai to investigate.

"Liu Mingzhi!"

Liu Mingzhi saw Qi Ya who was holding a lantern and standing in the pavilion not far from the peach blossom forest and punched him with a light smile: "Sister Ya, you haven't rested yet?"

"Where am I going to take a bath?"

"In that case, my younger brother will leave!"

Qi Ya held up a lantern and stopped in front of First Young Master Liu.

Fortunately, Young Master Liu didn't bump into Qi Ya because he was close to him. If it was so special in the past, Young Master Liu would have to hug Qi Ya and throw himself on the stone slab outside.

"Sister Ya, what is this?"

"I want to take a shower!"

"I know, that's why I want to say goodbye!"

"Can't I wipe my back?"

Liu Mingzhi looked embarrassed: "Huh?"

"Wipe my back!"

"what?"
