Shengpingle

Chapter 167
Aunt Hua immediately said, "Your group is fine, but I won't be your partner."

She felt that she was smart and capable, and she couldn't compare with these people. Sitting at a poker table with them was simply asking for trouble.

It's wine--

Aunt Hua took a look at Hua Pingle, who was still thinking about something while touching the cards. She was too clever to be able to keep up with Jiufangfeng when she played the leaf card for the first time.

At that time, Jiujiu learned how to be a housekeeper and learn to calculate accounts, and he learned it all at once. Even his grandfather and father were full of praise for learning martial arts.

Is it—

Her eyes turned to Hua Ping'an. Could it be that Jiujiu grew up with Ange's intelligence?
Huo Yanzhi said, "I'll take it."

Jiufangfeng Liangliang reminded, "My lord, it's been a morning, and there are only ten sounds in total. You haven't learned it yet. The second girl is listening to it, I'm afraid you can understand it all."

Huo Yanzhi, "I have silver, a lot."

Jiufangfeng, "..."

This is fine, just because he is short of money, a lot.

Aunt Hua smiled, "Those who want to win money and those who want to lose money should take it easy, it's getting late, please move to the flower hall and have a light meal."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Xianyu's entourage rushed over from outside, and said, "My lord, Mr. Wen has returned to Beijing to enter the palace, and the emperor hastened to call you into the palace."

Hua Pingle raised his head suddenly, Wen Chu has returned to Beijing!

Princess Ninghe was dissatisfied, "How could someone rush into the palace to answer the meal?"

Su Xianyu leaned over to salute, "The emperor's life is on him, Su Mou will leave, and the eldest princess forgives the sin."

Princess Ninghe hurriedly said, "Big girl, hurry up and prepare a saving box for Mrs. Su to take."

He also said to Su Xianyu, "No matter how urgent the emperor's life is, you must also take care of your body. The most important thing is when the diet is appropriate. You can take it to cushion your stomach on the road."

Su Xianyu thanked her and left in a hurry.

……

……

When Su Xianyu rushed outside the South Study Room, he happened to run into Lian Xiqing who was brought up for questioning.

The imperial guards who were escorting Lian Xiqing hurriedly avoided the side of the road, but Su Xianyu stopped in his tracks, and bowed to Lian Xiqing, "Miss Lian".

Lian Xiqing didn't expect that he would greet her, and was taken aback before remembering to return the salute.

I thought it was the extreme for him to stop to salute, but after he didn't want to salute, Su Xianyu looked her up and down, and then said, "Ms. Lian's complexion has improved a lot."

Lian Xiqing didn't know if his words had other meanings, or if he was simply stating the facts, so he replied vaguely, "Your Excellency is laughing at you."

Su Xianyu smiled slightly, "Miss Lian is being polite, Su has other mundane matters, so I won't bother you, girl, go slowly."

The imperial guards who were escorting Lian Xiqing wanted to wait for him to leave before leaving, but he actually avoided it, obviously wanting to wait for them to leave first, so they had to do a big salute anxiously, and then took Lian Xiqing with him. gone.

Su Xianyu watched Lian Xiqing's back disappear from sight before entering the South Study Room.

In the south study room, Zheng Hedi was pacing back and forth excitedly, while Wen Chu stood respectfully aside.

Seeing Su Xianyu coming in, Emperor Zhenghe stepped forward to stop him from saluting, laughed and said, "Xianyu, you did a good job this time! You did a good job!"

Su Xianyu was silent, Zhenghe Diwei looked him up and down, and said angrily, "Really, such a big matter is kept from me! It made me worry for so long in vain!"

Su Xianyu's voice was light, "I just suspected that the mountain bandits in Siqiao Mountain were the remnants of the Lian clan, so I took Qi Gufeng's son, [-] soldiers, and even Lord Wen's safety to gamble. The emperor is worried."

Emperor Zhenghe waved his hands happily, "How can the mere Qi family and [-] descendants compare with the remnants of the Lian family? It's a good bet, a good bet!"

Wen Chu's eyes moved slightly, Qi Gufeng's bloodline and [-] soldiers can't compare with the remnants of the Lian family?The emperor is so afraid of the remnants of the Lian family?
The Lien family has been destroyed for 17 years, and the few remaining descendants have been reduced to bandits and pirates, fleeing overseas, what will happen?
What is the emperor afraid of?
"Your Majesty, I don't know the specific situation?"

Emperor Zhenghe ordered Wen Chu to tell what he had seen and heard on the island again.

Wen Chu repeated it again, still following what Su Li taught, without changing the facts, only slightly changing his tone and attitude.

After Su Xianyu heard this, he murmured and said, "Your Majesty, Fuguang has just been decided, and it is difficult to find a general who is as good at naval warfare as Qi Gufeng.

The remnants of the Lian family have not yet become a reality, so it is the best policy to plan slowly.

The current plan is to temporarily conceal the news, so as not to startle the enemy, and wait until the time is right to win by surprise."

Emperor Zhenghe clapped his hands, "I also mean the same thing, but I am going to wrong Mr. Wen."

Temporarily concealing the news would naturally not be able to justify Wen Chu's name.

Wen Chu was an official in the court, and he had a bad reputation of being abducted by pirates and causing ten thousand soldiers to mutiny.

Wen Chu hurriedly said, "Sharing your majesty's worries is a matter of my duty, and I dare not resign even if I die."

Emperor Zhenghe smiled in satisfaction, "Don't worry, Ai Qing, I will reward you in the future."

Su Xianyu suddenly said, "When I was in Fuguang, I have heard for a long time that the children of the Lian family, no matter male or female, are all outstanding in appearance.

Just now I met Miss Lian Fifteen, she is very beautiful, and she really lives up to her reputation."

Wen Chu raised his head in astonishment, but what Su Shangshu said was frivolous——

"Haha, as expected, a hero is saddened by a beauty, and I really am not a womanizer when I am a queen.

In this way, how about I bestow Na Lianxiqing on Qing as my concubine? "

Wen Chu's stunned eyes fell from Su Xianyu's body to Zheng Hedi's face, just caught the flash of obscurity in his eyes, and suddenly woke up!

wrong!

Su Shangshu has always kept himself clean, and he knows that the emperor is most afraid of the remnants of the Lian family, so it is absolutely impossible to ask the emperor to ask the emperor to take a daughter of the Lian family as a concubine.

And it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to give the daughter of the Lian family, who is regarded as a hidden danger, to the most beloved Su Shangshu as a concubine!

What charades are they playing?
"Your Majesty made fun of it. How can I accept a concubine if I practice Taoism?"

Zhenghe Di laughed, "Yes, you can't ruin Qing's practice, Ah Li is growing up, and will marry a wife and have children in the future, it's always wrong to have no one in charge in the family.

I see that Lian Xiqing is a proper and capable person, so how about giving Qing a female official background and rewarding Qing to be a steward? "

Su Xianyu was silent, bowed his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Emperor Zhenghe waved his hand, "Qing has made extraordinary achievements many times, but he is only a servant or two, so there is no need to thank him.

I heard that Qing had promised to take care of that nun after the case of Nianyu was settled, so let’s take her away too.”

The Jin family is irrelevant, but he is envious and soft-hearted, so he simply acts as a favor.

Sure enough, Su Xianyu bowed deeply in gratitude when he heard the words, "Yes, the emperor loves me so much, and I will definitely live up to the emperor's high hopes."

High hopes——

Wen Chufu came to his heart and came to his senses, yes, high hopes!
The emperor and Su Shangshu are preparing for the eradication of the remnants of the Lian family in the future!
Lian Xiqing is the daughter of the Lian family, she has been trapped in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the remnants of the Lian family have no choice but to get close.

But if she is sent to the Su residence and given her certain rights and freedoms, maybe the remnants of the Lian family will come to contact her, or she will find a way to contact the people of the Lian family.

With Su Shangshu's intelligence, maybe he can follow the vine and pull out all the remnants of the Lian family without a single soldier!

Even if Lian Xiqing and the people of the Lian family didn't move, when they really confronted the remnants of the Lian family, the role of Lian Xiqing, a daughter of the Lian family, would be too great.

They just changed Lian Xiqing from the cell into a trap covered with warm and gorgeous clothes!

A cold sweat broke out on Wen Chu's back. Could even the girl see through such a trap?Can you come out again?

……

……

Due to Wen Chu's bad handling of affairs, Qi Gufeng's second son escaped, and ten thousand soldiers rebelled. He was demoted to one level and still served in the Ministry of Punishment.

After receiving the imperial decree, Wen Chu hurried to Cheng's mansion after leaving the palace. He was shocked when he saw Cheng Shangshu was pushed out by Cheng Xiuyuan, and hurriedly asked why.

Cheng Shangshu said simply, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, "You still have a long way to go, one or two failures are nothing, don't take it to heart."

Wen Chu nodded earnestly. Seeing his frank expression, Cheng Shangshu thought he really didn't take it seriously, smiled and praised him, and then taught Cheng Xiuyuan, "Don't be arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat, brother Yuan, so I can learn from you."

Cheng Xiuyuan bowed to be taught, and Wen Chu asked how Qian Lingyue was doing recently.

Cheng Shangshu dismissed Cheng Xiuyuan, told about Yan Shangshu's marriage proposal from the Ministry of Rites, and clearly listed the benefits of this marriage.

Wen Chu's tone was firm, "Even though Yan Shangshu is good in every way, he is always older and married again, so he has to give his first wife a concubine as soon as he passes through the house.

Since I promised her brother to take care of her, I will take good care of her. She doesn't need to take shelter from others.

If I really can't find a suitable candidate, I'll marry her myself! "

Cheng Shangshu sighed and patted him on the shoulder, and said tentatively, "Why don't you ask Miss Qian what she means? Mrs. Shangshu, it's not like everyone doesn't want to do it."

"Don't ask her—"

Cheng Shangshu interrupted him, "Lord Wen, we in the Ministry of Punishment most avoid being stubborn and wishful thinking.

You go and ask, lest you complain and think you saved her from fire and water."

Wen Chu was silent, Cheng Shangshu asked him to go to the flower hall, and sent someone to invite Qian Lingyue.

It was the first time Wen Chu did such a thing, it was very unnatural, and he couldn't say it for a long time.

Qian Lingyue was much more calm than him, "Brother, did you come to ask me about Yan Shangshu's marriage proposal?"

Wen Chu secretly complained that Cheng's house wasn't careful enough, that she was a girl who heard such a thing and was about to speak when Qian Lingyue said again, "I invited Yan Shangshu to come to Cheng's house to ask for marriage."

Wen Chu's eyes widened in surprise, "What did you say?"

Qian Lingyue's expression was calm and calm, she didn't see the shyness and embarrassment that her little daughter should have at this time, "I found an opportunity to meet Yan Shangshu and asked him to come to propose marriage."

Wen Chu was so shocked that his words were incomplete, he stammered and asked, "Why, why?"

"Yan Shangshu is handsome and talented, and he holds a high position. I am not worthy of him. It is my luck to marry him."

Wen Chu was angry and heartbroken, he didn't believe her nonsense at all!
Even if she took a fancy to Yan Shangshu's status and the position of Mrs. Shangshu, she still wanted revenge!

Qian Lingyue saluted, looked up at Wen Chu with deep eyes, "Please don't hinder my future, brother."

Wen Chu felt that the sound of "Qian Cheng" was like a boulder hitting his feet hard, making him unable to move.

"Marquis Cheng En, he is dead."

He didn't dare to say anything to avenge her and seek justice for her, because he knew that he couldn't do it!
At least for now, he can't do it at all!
He could only say weakly and feebly that Cheng Enhou was dead. Although he did not die at the hands of the Qian family, he was still dead!

Qian Lingyue's voice was light, "Brother is confused, what does Cheng Enhou's death have to do with my marriage?"

Wen Chu laughed dejectedly, he knew that he could not change her decision at all.

From the very beginning, he knew that this girl looked soft and weak, quiet and gentle, but she was the most stubborn, never lacking the courage to bang her head against the south wall.

Wen Chu couldn't stop Qian Lingyue's decision, so he immediately wrote a letter asking his mother to come to the capital and organize the wedding for Qian Lingyue in person, to show how much he valued Qian Lingyue, and to show her dignity.

He took out the money again and asked Mrs. Cheng to take the trouble to buy a dowry for Qian Lingyue without mentioning it.

Wen Chu came back, but Su Xianyu's intentions before did not reveal a little bit.

Everything was normal, as if Wen Chu was ambushed by bandits, who lost Qi Gufeng's son, causing [-] soldiers to defect.

Su Xianyu stayed in Washington for three consecutive days, and Su Xianyu, who was free to play with sister Ling, stayed at Shangshutai for several days, and then went straight to Fuguang.

Hua Pingle was blocked several times, but no one was blocked. He just felt that he couldn't swallow the breath hanging in his heart.

Su Xianyu definitely avoided her on purpose!
……

……

In a few days, Mrs. Wen arrived in the capital before the Mid-Autumn Festival and brought Wen Chu's younger sister Wen Lin with her.

Wen Lin is already 15 years old, and this time she happened to bring her to the capital for a kiss.

As soon as Mrs. Wen arrived in the capital, the marriage between Yan Shangshu and Qian Lingyue came to light.

Not to mention others, even Hua Pingle and the dozen or so Meng people were shocked when they heard about it.

Yan Shangshu and Qian Lingyue, no matter how you look at it, these two people can't get along, so why are they engaged?

How did Wen Chu agree?
Meng Shi heard the news, and immediately went to Washington with Meng Jiang, and called Shang Hua Pingle to Wen's.

After Mrs. Wen came to the capital, Qian Lingyue moved from Cheng's mansion to Wen's mansion.

Meng Jiang always said something. After Mrs. Wen left, he immediately asked Qian Lingyue, "Miss Qian, why are you engaged to Uncle Yan? Wen Chu wants to sell his sister for glory?"

Qian Lingyue was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing, "Mr. Meng, you are worrying too much. My brother treats me very well. How could it be like what you said, selling my sister for glory?"

"Then why did you make an engagement with Yan Shangshu? Is he older than your father?"

Hua Ping hurriedly tugged at his sleeve, but he threw it away nonchalantly, "What can't you ask? It's what it is!"

Qian Lingyue was not angry, and said in a gentle voice, "Yan Shangshu has a high position and authority, and he is very talented. I was the one who made this marriage."

Meng Jiang wanted to say more, but Hua Pingle interrupted him, "Okay, Miss Qian is getting married, why don't you talk about giving some box-pressing gifts, what are you talking about here?
Come on, let's go, we are a group of women, what are you doing like a big man? "

Meng Jiang was most afraid that others would pull him on the girl, so he ran away in a hurry.

Meng Shi carefully looked at Qian Lingyue's face, hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "Sister Qian, are you really willing to marry Uncle Yan?"

Qian Lingyue nodded solemnly, and Meng Shi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good! Uncle Yan is fine!
My grandmother said that when Uncle Yan was young, walking around the street would attract several girls crying and wanting to be his concubine! "
