Liu Hao felt inexplicably nervous under Cheng Guang's gaze, and large beads of sweat could not stop flowing from his forehead.

Liu Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a dry voice:
"Your Majesty, my third daughter Yu Ting has had a lot of contact with Zhang Shunlong before, and she seems to have the idea of ​​​​making a private life. Although we don't think highly of Zhang Shunlong's family, we didn't have any objections at first, but later... there was someone behind. When the noble man passed by Ping'an County, he fell in love with Yuting..."

"In this case, how could Zhang Shunlong and his family be worthy of our Liu family? They planned to make Zhang Shunlong give up. But instead of giving up, he wanted to elope with Yu Ting, which also angered that person. The noble man said that Zhang Shunlong should be handled by us."

"A noble man's words are like a big mountain to weigh on ordinary people like me."

"How dare I disobey you?"

When Liu Hao said this, Cheng Guang's mind instantly imagined a bloody drama.

The so-called noble man saw the three daughters of the Liu family and planned to forcefully marry a commoner girl.

In fact, it cannot be said to be a forced marriage. After all, in this era of parents' agreement and matchmaker's words, when Liu Hao and others saw that the so-called nobleman actually fell in love with his own daughter, it was no different from pie in the sky. .

So he sent his daughter directly to the noble man's house.

As for Zhang Shunlong, he was completely offended.

The so-called noble man may not have paid attention to Zhang Shunlong at all. Otherwise, how could Zhang Shunlong survive until now? He may have just mentioned it casually. Even so, Liu Hao and others did not dare to disobey, and carefully set up a plan to put Zhang Shunlong in his eyes. Zhang Shunlong's family was trampled to death.

As a result, Liu Hao and others were definitely involved behind the silver theft case.

In addition, in addition to Liu Hao's Liu Mansion, there seems to be cooperation from other county government officials.

At the same time, Li Mingtang, the magistrate of Pingan County on the side, also understood.

Co-author, Zhang Shunlong's family was really wronged in the silver theft case.

Liu Hao, the Liu family, really took great pains to deal with Zhang Shunlong's family.

Li Mingtang also realized that with the strength of the Liu family alone, it was obviously impossible to steal silver from the county government's bank. There was also the participation of county government officials behind this.

Thinking of this, Li Mingtang also frowned helplessly.

I just feel like things are a complete mess.

That noble man was not involved in this kind of thing at all. If that noble man really wanted to kill Zhang Shunlong, he would just shoot him to death, even if it took so much effort.

All of this seemed to be the work of Liu Mansion.

Carefully and deliberately, just to deal with the noble man's words and to please the noble man.

It was all too real.

Li Mingtang was filled with emotion, and he understood Liu Hao's actions a little more. At the same time, at this time, he did not dare to speak out directly to express his position.

Dealing with Zhang Shunlong's family was fine, but if he were to attack Liu Hao directly, he would still have some concerns.

The three daughters of his family married that noble man. Although they don't know whether they have status or not, it doesn't matter. At least they are already the women beside the noble man.

No matter how humble his status is, he cannot compare with it.

If the prince wants to help Zhang Shunlong, he must contact that noble man.

He, a small county magistrate, couldn't get involved in such a fight between gods and gods.

Li Mingtang was thinking in his heart, and simply looked at his nose and nose, and his nose and heart. He was in a trance for a while, and his mind drifted nine days away.

Cheng Guang frowned slightly and asked, "Who is that noble person you are talking about?"

When Cheng Guang asked this question, Qingluan also cast his eyes on Liu Hao, a little curious as to what kind of person he was, with such a big face, and he just forcibly broke up the mandarin duck and married the girl Liu back without caring.

Under Cheng Guang's gaze, Liu Hao wiped the sweat on his forehead again, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't say anything.

He knew that if he told the nobleman's name, the prince in front of him would most likely cause trouble for that nobleman.

If that noble man hates him for this, even if his three daughters get married, they will still be unable to gain any benefits.

Liu Hao didn't want to respond, but the current situation made it impossible for him to avoid it.

He didn't dare to offend that noble man, but how could he afford to offend the noble prince in front of him.

After being silent for a while, Liu Hao sighed, his face turned earthy, and he slowly said, "Yes, it is Lin Yunzhen, the son of Lin Gongfu, the right prime minister of the current dynasty."

"Lin Yunzhen?" Cheng Guang frowned slightly.

He was still quite unfamiliar with this name.

There are only a few people he frequently interacts with in the entire Kyoto, and ordinary people are not even qualified to contact him.

So when he heard the name Lin Yunzhen, he couldn't figure out which one it was.

However, when he was the prime minister of the country, he still knew about Lin Gongfu, the right prime minister.

Lin Gongfu was also an old fox. He was an upright man and had a lot of influence in the court. He was ruthless by nature and unkind in appearance. He relied on his status as a veteran of two dynasties to ignore many young officials.

Above the imperial court, most of the officials who opposed the Deng Si's control of such great power were members of his Lin Party.

For such a court minister who controlled half of the court, his heirs also had an extraordinary status.

Although the status is not as good as Cheng Guang, it is not bad.

It's no wonder that people like Liu Hao and others in the Liu family are so jealous of Lin Yunzhen.

Cheng Guang rubbed his chin, his eyes fell on Qingluan beside him, and asked: "Qingluan, do you know Lin Yunzhen?"

"Who is he probably?"

Qingluan heard the words, thought for a moment, and then lowered his eyebrows and said: "Your Majesty, Lin Yunzhen's reputation in Kyoto is quite good. He is often willing to do good things. He is also a student of Dazhou Academy. He is a famous talent in Kyoto and is excellent in poetry. , revered by many women from Kyoto aristocratic families.”

Cheng Guang felt strange after hearing this, "That's not right. Logically speaking, if Lin Yunzhen is like this, he has no shortage of women at all. How come he is here in Ping'an County and can fall in love with a woman just by passing by?"

Although Cheng Guang's words were a bit vulgar, they were not crude.

After hearing this, Qingluan nodded slightly, with a slight doubt in his beautiful eyes, and he didn't quite understand.

"Could it be that...this girl from the Liu family...is extraordinarily beautiful?"

Cheng Guang frowned slightly. This was not a question of whether she was beautiful or not. No matter how beautiful she was, for a powerful person with such a status, there was always no shortage of beauties.

Instead, they will attach great importance to status and family background.

There were so many women from aristocratic families in Kyoto, but Lin Yunzhen didn't want to choose. He passed by Ping'an County and fell in love with the three daughters of the Liu family, so he wanted to marry them back to his family.

Either there is something really wrong with Lin Yun, or there is something wrong with the three daughters of the Liu family, something that attracts him.

Cheng Guang's eyes fell on Li Mingtang and said: "County Magistrate Li, I heard what you just said. I want you to go back and solve the silver theft case."

When Li Mingtang heard Cheng Guang mentioning himself, he didn't dare to pretend to be dead anymore and nodded quickly in agreement.

The people involved in this case, except for the people in the Liu family who are behind Lin Yunzhen, the son of the current prime minister, who dare not move, the officials in the county government who are hiding from themselves, in order to curry favor with the Liu family, and help the Liu family cannot Let it go.

Cheng Guang then looked at Liu Hao, "Master Liu."

Cheng Guang said.

When Liu Hao heard Cheng Guang calling his name, his expression suddenly became nervous, like a child who had made a mistake. He stood stiffly, rubbing the corners of his clothes, not knowing what to say.

He could only respond and listen obediently to Cheng Guang's instructions.

Cheng Guang said: "That Zhang Shunlong, arrange for you to wash him well, treat his injuries, and change his clothes. Later I will take him to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see your daughter."

As soon as Cheng Guang said these words, Liu Hao, who was still very reserved at first, instantly realized that Cheng Guang, the noble prince of Zhenguo, most likely wanted to help Zhang Shunlong.

This is to snatch his daughter back directly from the Prime Minister's Palace.

Liu Hao's expression became tangled, and he didn't dare to speak for a while. He just hesitated and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, this... this is not good..."

"My three daughters have been to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I think they are living a good life. Mr. Lin is a well-known peerless son in Kyoto. It is already a high achievement for my daughter to marry Mr. Lin."

Liu Hao still couldn't let go of Lin Yunzhen, a high-ranking official.

Being able to marry Lin Yunzhen made her daughter quite the limelight in Ping'an County during this period. When she was away from home, no matter whether the other party recognized her or not, as long as she heard that her daughter was married to Lin Yunzhen, the son of Xiangguo, everyone would show respect.

Compared to Zhang Shunlong, the son of a government servant, it is much better.

After hearing Liu Hao's words, Cheng Guang felt that Liu Hao was really naive and said meaningfully: "Do you really think that your daughter is living a good life in the Prime Minister's Palace?"

As soon as Cheng Guang said these words, Liu Hao and all the people from the Liu family behind him looked slightly startled.

In their view, if their family members married into the prime minister's palace, even if they were not taken seriously, they had already entered a powerful family and could still enjoy good life and clothing.

It won't be a bad life.

Cheng Guang helplessly shook his head and said nothing.

From Cheng Guang's own understanding, it was impossible for an ordinary person to marry into a powerful family.

The three daughters of the Liu family, to put it nicely, were married into the Prime Minister's Palace.

To put it harshly, it might be that Lin Yunzhen, the son of the prime minister, was brought into the house and used as a plaything.

Most likely, it is still a plaything without dignity.

After so many days, Cheng Guang really didn't dare to think about what Liu Yuting, the third daughter of the Liu family, had become like now. He just felt that it was really fucked.

The powerful people in this world really don't regard human life as fate.

A casual word can crush an ordinary person to death.

Any single move can affect the fate of a family.

Cheng Guang's thoughts were complicated and he couldn't help but sigh and said: "Okay, I hope the three daughters of your family are safe and sound. You can make arrangements first. Zhang Shunlong will be brought to me later."

Liu Hao responded thoughtfully, and quickly asked the woman next to him to make arrangements to pick up Zhang Shunlong from the dilapidated wooden house, take him to wash up, and briefly treat his injuries.

Originally, he thought it was pie in the sky that Lin Yunzhen, the son of the prime minister, could take notice of the three daughters from his family. It was a great thing.

No matter what I heard from the prince in front of me, it was not a good thing.

Could it be that the three women really had a bad life in the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Liu Hao had a bad feeling in his heart.

A woman next to him also thought of something, with a few tears shining in her eyes, she pulled Liu Hao's sleeve and said: "Sir, speaking of it, Yu Ting has been there since she was taken to Kyoto by that noble man. No letter came back.”

After hearing the woman's words, Liu Hao felt a headache again, "Madam, don't be anxious. Yu Ting has only been taken by Mr. Lin for more than a month, and a few months is not long. Maybe she is busy during these days." I’m busy with other things and don’t have time to write letters.”

The woman took a deep breath, with a worried look in her eyes, "I hope so. I didn't feel anything wrong before, but when the prince said this just now, I felt uneasy."

"There is no way we can reach that kind of noble person."

"Yuting should have been allowed to elope with Zhang Shunlong..."

Liu Hao waved his robe angrily, "It's already this time, why are you still talking like this?"

"Okay, don't mention this matter again."

But the woman refused, her eyes fell on Cheng Guang, and she said pleadingly: "Your Majesty, do you want to take Zhang Shunlong to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet my Yu Ting?"

Cheng Guang looked at the woman and nodded slightly.

The woman quickly said: "Well, can you take us to the Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look?"

When Liu Hao, the head of the Liu Mansion, heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly interrupted: "Madam, what are you talking about?"

In Liu Hao's opinion, Cheng Guang, the eldest son of the Zhenguo Duke, would most likely take Yu Ting back from the Prime Minister's Mansion and let her marry Zhang Shunlong.

Although he didn't know the purpose of Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, nor how his Yu Ting was doing in the Prime Minister's Mansion, at least, it was much better than marrying Zhang Shunlong.

If my wife went to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Cheng Guang, the eldest son of Zhenguo, wouldn't it be a sideways proof that my Liu Mansion wanted to go back on its word and reject the marriage?
At this time, everything is done, so how can a woman marry a second time?

Liu Hao only felt a headache.

But the woman next to him, Mrs. Wu, didn't care about face or anything else. The safety of her daughter was not important.

For more than a month, there was no news about my daughter.

In a place like the Prime Minister's Mansion, let alone entering, even if they were to get close, they would not be allowed.

If their daughter does not take the initiative to write a letter, they can say that they will not get any news about their daughter.

Under such circumstances, how could Wu not be anxious.

Wu's pleading eyes fell on Cheng Guang, and her eyes trembled, as if she was afraid of Cheng Guang's rejection.

In addition, she also knew that it was normal for Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, to reject her. After all, how could she ask a nobleman to do something for her.

I was already prepared in my heart.

Under Wu's attention, Cheng Guang rubbed his chin and thought slowly in his heart.

He didn't necessarily refuse Wu's request. Anyway, he wanted to help Zhang Shunlong solve his troubles. After all, he was going to the Prime Minister's Mansion. It didn't matter how many people he brought with him.

He was mainly worried about whether Wu's mother could bear the news if something happened to the three daughters of the Liu family.

In addition, Cheng Guang also thought at this time that if something happened to the three daughters of the Liu family, Zhang Shunlong would not be able to withstand it.

However, if Zhang Shunlong is not brought along, the matter will still not be solved and the task will not be completed.

Cheng Guang thought.

After receiving no response for a long time, Mrs. Wu gradually gave up, with a wry smile on her lips, "I am a woman who talks too much. I hope the prince will not take offense..."

Wu said and was about to retreat when Cheng Guang's voice rang in her ears.

"Well, yes."

Cheng Guang raised his eyes to look at the sky and found that it was still early. At this time, he had to hurry up and return to Kyoto before it got dark.

"Ready your horse, wait for Zhang Shunlong to wash up, and then go to Kyoto."

When Wu heard Cheng Guang's words, she was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes were slightly startled, showing some surprise.

Obviously, she didn't expect that Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, would actually agree to her insignificant request as a woman.

He quickly asked someone to prepare the horse.

Seeing this situation, Liu Hao had a headache, but he couldn't say anything. In the end, he could only sigh silently, and then thought to himself:
"That's all."

"It's a good thing to take a look at Yu Ting. Yu Ting hasn't written to me for a long time..."

Liu Hao felt very complicated. On the one hand, he couldn't let go of Lin Yunzhen, his son-in-law, but on the other hand, he didn't dare to offend Cheng Guang, the prince of the country. Neither of them dared to offend, so he could only be caught in the middle.

When Mrs. Wu asked her servants to bring the horses, he was also a little moved and wanted to follow Mrs. Wu to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion.

If there is a chance, at least I can explain to Lin Yunzhen, the son of the Prime Minister, that these are all the wishes of Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, and not all the wishes of the Liu family.

Cheng Guang didn't know Liu Hao's little thoughts, and he didn't care.

Standing aside, Qingluan, Lin Cheng and others waited silently.

Within a moment, Zhang Shunlong was also brought over by Liu Mansion's servants.

He changed into another set of clothes and took a good wash. His thin face looked slightly handsome.

Zhang Shunlong seemed to know that Cheng Guang wanted to take him to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet Liu Yuting, and for a moment his body became inexplicably cautious and cautious.

He didn't know what the purpose of Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo was.

He didn't know what he had that made Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, come to him specifically. He even wanted to seek justice for him by going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Liu Yuting.

Even though Zhang Shunlong didn't know anything at this time, he could feel his heart.

Zhang Shunlong could feel that Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, had no ill intentions towards him. He was not like Lin Yunzhen, who was elegant on the surface but vicious, aloof and arrogant secretly.

When he walked in front of Cheng Guang, he felt nervous and called out respectfully: "Your Majesty."

At this time, Zhang Shunlong still had hatred for the powerful in his eyes, but he no longer had much objection to him, the prince of the country.

Cheng Guang seemed to be able to see a line of text floating above Zhang Shunlong's head.

[Zhang Shunlong’s favorability +10]

You're going to attack boys by yourself, right?

Cheng Guang felt a little weird in his heart. He shook his head and said without thinking much, "Let's go."

Cheng Guang turned around and walked out.

Cheng Guang left the Liu Mansion, led Qingluan and his party, mounted their horses, and ran towards Kyoto.

Zhang Shunlong, Liu Hao from the Liu Mansion, Wu and others followed closely behind on horses.

After getting on the carriage, Zhang Shunlong stared closely at the huge city of Kyoto in the distance that looked like a behemoth lying across the ground.

That place was the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it was also the place most desired by the world's powerful.

It is also the place where your loved ones live.

It only takes more than a month.

Yuting was already married as a wife.

Zhang Shunlong knew that the prince took him to Kyoto like this, maybe because he wanted to snatch Yuting back.

Snatch it back from the Prime Minister's Mansion and send it to him.

But he didn't want to do this.

First of all, if the prince does this, even if it is the prince, the price is not light. There is no need to go through trouble for such a lowly little person like him.

Secondly, even Zhang Shunlong had to admit that Lin Yunzhen, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, had a much higher status than himself.

If Yu Ting lives well in Xiangguo Mansion.

No matter how painful he was, he didn't dare to ask for anything, as long as Yuting could live happily.

He was satisfied to be able to say goodbye properly.

In this case, the prince has done so many things for him, how should he repay the prince?
If you die, what can you do to repay the prince?
Zhang Shunlong sighed, his thin face slightly tangled, but after a moment, the tangled look was covered by nervousness.

Immediately, he will be able to go to Kyoto and see Yuting soon.

The last time we met, it was under the peach blossoms. The beauty held his hand, her eyes filled with admiration. She wanted to leave him regardless of the noble person or her family.

But this time...

But things are different.

The beautiful woman has become a wife, and he has become a slave.

Zhang Shunlong didn't know what kind of attitude he should use to face Yu Ting. He nervously smoothed his robe and patted his nervous and slightly stiff face.

I just hope that I can face Yuting in a good state.

In the same carriage.

The Wu family next to Zhang Shunlong was also full of nervousness. Some were nervous about entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, and some were nervous about her daughter's condition at this time.

Liu Hao, on the other hand, was scanning Zhang Shunlong with a hostile gaze.

It seemed that he was warning him with his eyes that he was not allowed to say anything he shouldn't say when he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yuting is no longer someone you can contact.

Zhang Shunlong noticed Liu Hao's gaze, but frowned slightly and said nothing.

Everyone had complicated emotions and did not speak.

It was extremely quiet inside the carriage.

As we kept going, the return journey seemed shorter than the journey there, and we arrived in Kyoto in less than a few hours.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is several streets away from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, on the other side of the Imperial City of Kyoto. Cheng Guang has never been here before.

When we arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the sky was gradually darkening.

The gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion is tall and painted in vermilion, and the Xuanmen is gorgeously decorated. The pair of tall stone lions on both sides of the door are majestic and noble.Cheng Guang dismounted in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion and stood in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When the guard in charge saw Cheng Guang's face, his eyes widened a bit.

He quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Your Majesty, may I ask if you want to find the Prime Minister?"

Cheng Guang shook his head, "No, I'm looking for Lin Yunzhen."

As soon as the guard heard that Cheng Guang was looking for his young master Lin Yunzhen, he quickly turned aside and asked other guards to push the door open and respectfully asked Cheng Guang to go in.

At the same time, the housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed to have learned of Cheng Guang's arrival at the first opportunity, and hurriedly came to greet him, respectfully asking Cheng Guang to go to the main hall for a while.

"Your Majesty, I have sent someone to call the Young Master. The Young Master is still studying in the academy today and has just come back. Please take a rest."

Cheng Guang nodded slightly.

After the housekeeper said that, he went to ask someone to bring some tea to Cheng Guang. Suddenly, he noticed the person following Cheng Guang again.

Qingluan and a group of guards and others, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't say much, but in addition to the maids and guards who followed Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, there were also a few people who exuded the aura of common people. .

As soon as he entered the Duke's Mansion, his body became more relaxed and his heads were lowered.

"Your Majesty, are these people...?"

Yang Tiexin, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, asked cautiously.

Cheng Guang glanced sideways, "Do I need to explain to you?"

When the housekeeper Yang Tiexin heard this, he slapped himself quickly and said with a smile: "No need, no need..."

"Your Majesty, you are taking a break."

After Yang Tiexin finished speaking, he quickly retreated and left the hall.

It seemed that he was going to inform Xiang Guo and Lin Yunzhen.

Cheng Guang looked at Zhang Shunlong.

I found that Zhang Shunlong at this time, since he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, was not as reserved as Liu Hao and Wu. Instead, he couldn't help but look around, as if he was looking for someone.

Cheng Guang couldn't help but shake his head. How could he find anyone with this skill?

Most of the female relatives live in the backyard.

This is just the front yard.

If you want to see him, you can only wait until Lin Yunzhen arrives and either rob him by force or ask Lin Yunzhen to bring him over.

Cheng Guang didn't say anything, but took a sip of the tea brought by the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Gee.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is really extravagant and extravagant. This tea can increase his cultivation level and make him rich.

At this time, a slightly cheerful old voice sounded.

"I don't know if the prince is coming, but I am not expecting him from afar."

Before the people arrive, the voice has arrived.

Cheng Guang looked toward the palace door and saw a figure slowly walking over. Although his face was old, he had black hair and his body was tall and straight. He did not look like an old man.

Although this person has a smile on his face.

But the temperament is very refreshing.

At the same time, the old man's eyes were as deep as ancient wells. Being stared at by him was like being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his body could not help but shiver.

This is the elder of the two dynasties of the Zhou Dynasty. He was the prime minister of the current dynasty and his right minister, Lin Gongfu.

Cheng Guang smiled and said: "I also came unexpectedly. Prime Minister, please don't think it's presumptuous."

Lin Gongfu's expression paused, and then the smile on his face became more friendly, and he waved his hand, "No, no, no, why did the prince come to my prime minister's house?"

After Lin Gongfu finished speaking, he stared at Cheng Guang closely.

He knew that Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, could not come rashly without any purpose.

Under Lin Gongfu's gaze, Cheng Guang remained calm and composed. He just smiled and said, "I don't have anything important to do. I'm just looking for someone for my friend."

"Looking for someone? Who is it?" Lin Gongfu was stunned.

He knew that after Cheng Guang came over, he immediately wanted to find Lin Yunzhen, but Lin Gongfu felt that the person Cheng Guang really wanted to find was not Lin Yunzhen.

As far as he knew, his own Lin Yunzhen had never had any interaction with the prince Zhenguo. Logically speaking, it was impossible for them to know each other.

and so……

Who does Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, want to find?

Lin Gongfu didn't understand.

Cheng Guang smiled and did not respond.

Lin Gongfu's old face stared at Cheng Guang, as if he couldn't see what Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, was thinking.

This is terrible.

The palace of the prince Zhenguo is deeper than Lin Gongfu himself imagined.

It was also at this time that the butler's voice came from outside the palace.

"Prime Minister, the young master is back."

Lin Gongfu immediately stood up and smiled at Cheng Guang, "Your Majesty, my son Lin Yunzhen has arrived. After I heard that you were here, I wanted to see Yunzhen."

Cheng Guang said nothing and looked outside the hall.

outside the temple.

A noble man wearing gorgeous clothes walked in slowly.

Although his appearance is slightly inferior to that of Cheng Guang, he can be said to be handsome compared to ordinary people. He is tall and straight, and he exudes a calmness and elegance when walking.

As soon as Cheng Guang saw this person, he recognized him. This person was Lin Yunzhen.

Lin Yunzhen entered the back of the palace, his eyes first fell on the Prime Minister Lin Gongfu, he called "Dad", bowed slightly in a very polite manner, and then his eyes fell on Cheng Guang.

He saw a lot of doubts in his eyes.

It seems that he doesn't understand.

Why did Cheng Guang, the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo, suddenly come to the Prime Minister's Mansion and ask to see him by name?

Lin Yunzhen didn't really understand, and suddenly he felt the gaze of several other eyes. Their eyes moved and fell on Liu Hao, Wu, and Zhang Shunlong.

Lin Yunzhen felt inexplicably familiar with Liu Hao and Wu.

But more like a stranger.

Not that I care.

On the contrary, he was more concerned about Zhang Shunlong's gaze.

There seemed to be hatred hidden in Zhang Shunlong's eyes. Although it was deeply hidden by Zhang Shunlong, he was still keenly aware of it.

Could it be that the Crown Prince made a special trip to the Prime Minister's Mansion today because of this person?

It has to be said that Lin Yunzhen is not a stupid person and has his own opinions on things. Just by taking a look at Zhang Shunlong next to Cheng Guang, he can roughly deduce the purpose of Cheng Guang's visit today.

Lin Yunzhen didn't care either. He couldn't figure out who Zhang Shunlong was for a while.

Even if he offended Zhang Shunlong, he didn't think that Cheng Guang would cause trouble for Zhang Shunlong, a person who looked as low as the ground.

Therefore, Lin Yunzhen's face immediately revealed a somewhat elegant and gentle smile, and he slowly bowed his hands to Cheng Guang, "I have met the prince."

"Your Majesty came to the mansion today, why did you want to see me?"

When Cheng Guang saw that Lin Yunzhen, the real owner, had also come to the scene, he stopped delaying and went straight to the point, saying, "I came here today to find the three daughters of the Liu family."

"It's Liu Yuting who you married into your house a few days ago."

Cheng Guang originally thought that after his words came out, Lin Yunzhen would respond whether he wanted to see him or not.

But he didn't expect that after listening to his words, Lin Yunzhen's face showed confusion.

"The three daughters of the Liu family are the ones I want to marry back to my family?"

"No, Prince, have you remembered wrongly? I'm not married yet. How can I marry anyone?"

Lin Gongfu on the side couldn't see clearly what was going on at this time. His sharp sense, unique to the old fox, made him cast his gaze on the Liu family and his party who were standing cautiously next to Cheng Guang.

As soon as Lin Yunzhen said these words, the bodies of the Liu family and the others trembled violently.

Liu Hao's eyes widened in disbelief.

How could Lin Yunzhen say such things.

What does it mean that you are not married yet? How can you marry someone?

Didn’t the three daughters of my family just marry into the Prime Minister’s Mansion?

Wu on the side trembled after hearing Lin Yunzhen's words, her fingers clenched the corners of her clothes tightly, and the bad premonition in her heart became stronger.

Zhang Shunlong paused for breath. He originally thought that Yuting had married into the Prime Minister's Mansion and had already lived a good life. How come it was as if Liu Yuting had never appeared after hearing the words of Lin Yunzhen, the son of the Prime Minister?
Liu Hao and Wu might not dare to offend Lin Yunzhen, but Zhang Shunlong knew that he was destined to die, so he immediately questioned him.

"Then I dare to ask, where is the girl you picked up from Ping'an County a month ago?"

As soon as Zhang Shunlong said these words, Lin Yunzhen let out a light sigh, and his distinguished eyes fell on Zhang Shunlong.

He did not answer Zhang Shunlong's words, but frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, may I ask who this is?"

If Cheng Guang hadn't been present, Lin Yunzhen would have planned to shoot this untouchable man who didn't know etiquette to death.

He even dared to question him.

If Cheng Guang, the prince of Zhenguo, asked, that would be all.

Who is this untouchable?
Lin Yunzhen was thinking this in his heart. At the same time, listening to Zhang Shunlong's words, he also thought of the woman he brought back from Ping'an County more than a month ago.

Looking at the faces of Zhang Shunlong, Liu Hao, and Wu, their faces darkened as if they had thought of something.

He really didn't expect that these untouchables would dare to find the Prime Minister's Mansion just because of a mere woman.

Even the prince asked about this matter.

why?
Lin Yun really didn't understand.

Cheng Guang looked at Lin Yunzhen and said casually: "You don't need to worry about this person's identity. Just answer his questions."

Lin Yunzhen's breathing was slightly stagnant, and his face became a little ugly.

He glanced at Lin Gongfu beside him.

At this time, Gongfu Lin seemed to realize that the Crown Prince came to the mansion specifically this time, and if his goal was not achieved, the Crown Prince would not give up.

At the same time, he was also curious about what his Lin Yunzhen had done to deserve Cheng Guang, the noble prince of Zhenguo, to visit him personally.

Therefore, Lin Gongfu said: "Yun Zhen, just answer his question. Have you picked up any girls from Ping'an County?"

The corner of Lin Yunzhen's mouth twitched secretly a few times, and he said helplessly: "Yes, but I didn't marry that woman. I originally planned to let her be my bed-warming maid, but I didn't expect that woman to be so ignorant."

"I didn't do anything to her, she was going to die. After having sex a few times, I lost interest, so I just gave it to the servants in the house."

"As for whether that woman's name is Liu Yuting, I don't know."

Lin Yunzhen spread his hands helplessly.

When Lin Yunzhen said what he said, the body of Liu Hao, the head of the Liu Mansion, trembled for a few moments, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing.

He originally thought that his family had climbed a high tree, and that his daughter had married into the Prime Minister's Mansion and became the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it turned out...

result……

Not even a bed-warming maid?
Compared to what happened to his daughter, Liu Hao had already thought of the benefits he had gained during this period by relying on his status as an in-law in the Prime Minister's Palace.

If outsiders found out, her daughter was not married to the Prime Minister's son at all, but was just treated as a bed-warming maid, not even a maid at this time.

even……

He was also rewarded by the son of the Prime Minister as a servant in the mansion.

Lose your face!

shame!

ashamed!

Many embarrassing emotions rushed into Liu Hao's heart, almost making him unable to raise his head.

When Wu on the side heard Lin Yunzhen's words, her heart seemed to be violently beaten, she exclaimed, and the tip of her nose felt sore.

Tears welled up uncontrollably from her eyes.

Big tears slid down her face and fell to the ground drop by drop.

"Yuting, Yuting, where is she? Where is she?"

"We don't want to be the in-laws of the Prime Minister's Palace. Master, can we take Yuting home?"

Wu's heart seemed to be destroyed, and she clenched Liu Hao's arm tightly, her fingers turning blue due to too much force.

After hearing Wu's words, Liu Hao's expression changed, his lips moved a few times, but he said nothing.

My daughter has already entered the Prime Minister's Office.

Her destiny is no longer controlled by herself or others.

How easy is it to take your daughter back?

At this time, perhaps only the crown prince can do it and ask the Prime Minister's Mansion to release him.

At the same time, after hearing what Lin Yunzhen said, Zhang Shunlong's face turned pale as if struck by lightning, and his body stagnated in place. He stared blankly at Lin Yunzhen's noble face that looked very gentle and elegant, and couldn't believe it.

The noble man in front of him, after taking Yu Ting away from him, did not cherish her so much. He didn't even know Yu Ting's name, so he played with her casually and threw it away.

Why! ?

Why can a noble person be so deceiving!
why! ?

Why is my Yuting like this! ?
Zhang Shunlong's breathing became rapid, his eyes became painfully red, and he stared at Lin Yunzhen.

If eyes could kill, Lin Yunzhen would have died countless times at this time.

Lin Yunzhen noticed Zhang Shunlong's gaze, but frowned slightly, his eyes fell on Cheng Guang, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, the gaze of the man next to you makes me feel uncomfortable. If it is convenient, I really want to kill him." Goug out his eyes."

Lin Yunzhen said this with a smile.

Although Lin Yunzhen's identity is not as good as that of Cheng Guang, it is not much different.

After all, his father was the Prime Minister of the current dynasty and one of the most powerful people in the Zhou Dynasty.

So he could straighten his back slightly in front of Cheng Guang.

When Lin Gongfu on the side heard Lin Yunzhen's words, his eyes also fell on Zhang Shunlong, and then he closed his eyes to rest and ignored his son's words.

Cheng Guang also smiled.

"I'm afraid it's really inconvenient."

Lin Yunzhen said regretfully: "That's right, the prince is quite good to this untouchable."

Cheng Guang didn't say much to Lin Yunzhen. He tapped the back of the chair with his fingers and just said, "Bring the person here."

Lin Yunzhen could only feel a sense of aggrievedness in front of Cheng Guang, but he had no choice but to obey and let the servants be summoned to bring over the woman who had been brought back to the house a month ago.

Speaking of which, if Cheng Guang hadn't come today.

He had almost forgotten such a thing.

The servant left quickly.

After a moment, the servant walked out quickly and said in a hurried voice, "Sorry, sir, the woman is gone."

"Not anymore?"

Lin Yun was really stunned.

Zhang Shunlong suddenly turned his head and stared at the servant outside the hall.

Several servants behind the servant lifted up a delicate body covered with white cloth and raised their heads carefully, not daring to speak loudly.

"This girl... committed suicide a long time ago."

He committed suicide a long time ago...?

Zhang Shunlong's head buzzed, and he felt that the world was pale. He could no longer hear Wu's cries and people's conversations in his ears.

He looked at the delicate body covered in white cloth in the distance.

In a daze, he could see a gentle beauty smiling at him.

"Shunlong, tell me, do I look better with long hair or short hair?"

The beauty has longing on her face and light in her eyes.

"Shunlong, I want you to be able to carry me out of the Liu Mansion when we get married in the future."

The beauty puffed out her red lips and thought.

"Shunlong, in the future we will have to have more babies after we get married. Now the old people say that if you don't have children when you are young, it will be more difficult to have babies when you are young and older in the future."

The beauty has a sad face.

"Shunlong...my father said that a noble man has taken a liking to me..."

"Shunlong, will you take me away?"

The beauty's pear blossoms are covered with rain, and her eyes are full of sadness.

Zhang Shunlong looked into the distance and felt that his world was only white. Unknowingly, he had already burst into tears.

"Let's go, let's go..."

Zhang Shunlong stretched out his hand blankly and scratched, as if he had caught something, but he caught nothing.

"Yuting, where can we go?"

Zhang Shunlong murmured and cried, "The world is so big, how can we go?"

"Why."

"Why is this happening?"

"Why is this world like this?"

At this time, Zhang Shunlong was asking unanswered questions, as if he was a child who had not grown up, and burst into tears.

In the empty hall.

It seemed that only Zhang Shunlong's cry was left.
