Chapter 321 (Three more)
Luo Cheng also saw Zhao Shicheng, and he said, "Unexpectedly, Zhao Shicheng also came to the Chen family."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "It seems that Yuezhou City is too small, and you can always meet acquaintances."

A servant of the Chen family walked up to Luo Cheng, cupped his hands and asked, "Excuse me, which house do you two belong to?"

Luo Cheng was about to answer "It's from the Lu family" and when he took out the invitation card, he heard someone in front say, "Young master is here?"

The man walked up to Luo Cheng and said with a smile, "Young master, please come in quickly." Then he said to the servant just now, "Park the carriage of the young master."

The servant looked at Luo Cheng suspiciously, and replied, "Yes, master." Then he walked away.

master?

Li Jiaoniang looked at the old man in front of her. He was over sixty years old, with gray hair, full of energy, well dressed, and gorgeous accessories on his clothes. Is this Old Chen Ge?
Luo Cheng glanced at him indifferently, and returned a salute, "Please, Mr. Chen Ge."

It really is old Chen Ge!Li Jiaoniang was surprised.

She asked Fuwang, this old Chen Ge used to be a third-rank official by the emperor's side, and was demoted because he spoke for a criminal minister 20 years ago.

But not long ago, the government decreed to restore Chen Gelao's official position.

But at this time, Chen Ge was 60 years old. He refused the invitation of the official family and returned to his hometown to settle in his hometown of Yuezhou.

But the descendants of the Chen family did not withdraw from the officialdom, and took up some positions in various places.

Li Jiaoniang was very surprised that an old man of such status actually respected Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng saw her expression and sighed silently.

After entering Chen's house, Mr. Chen Ge asked the lady in charge to take Li Jiaoniang to the female relatives, while he took Luo Cheng to another place.

Although Li Jiaoniang's attire today is not gorgeous and the silk skirt she wears is just an ordinary high-end style, but the hair accessories on her head are very gorgeous and dazzling.

The earrings made of two expensive oriental pearls and the huge pearl butterfly hairpin on her head are very eye-catching under the sunlight.

Many noble ladies and girls were all amazed.

Someone whispered, "The hair ornament on the head of the lady in Tsing Yi in front belonged to the former Princess Chengyang. Look, the earrings are Dongzhu, that's a tribute."

"The son-in-law Ning Guogong was accused of treason and was beheaded by the late emperor to show the public. Princess Chengyang refused to accept the verdict and was killed on the spot at the guillotine. The jewelry should be in the warehouse in the palace, how could it be worn on her head?"

"The woman's face is strange, but her bearing is extraordinary. Who is it?"

A few women here were discussing in low voices, and two people came up and said, "I know her, she is a distant relative of the Lu family, Mrs. Lu once brought her to my house for a banquet." A woman said.

"Distant relatives? How could the distant relatives of the Lu family have Princess Chengyang's jewelry? It's really strange."

Several people were talking in low voices, thinking that Li Jiaoniang couldn't hear.

As everyone knows, because she knows martial arts, her hearing is better than that of ordinary people, and she is very close to hearing it.

Li Jiaoniang thought to herself, what old lady Lu gave her was Princess Chengyang's jewelry?

This royal princess jewelry, can you give it casually?

In Li Jiaoniang's mind, she desperately searched for the historical common sense learned in her previous life, but no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't think of an example of giving away the princess's accessories casually.

Still a princess who committed a crime.

She frowned, forget it, go back and ask Mrs. Lu, anyway, she will go back to Lu's house to report the situation after the Chen family's wedding banquet.

Because it was something that Mr. Chen Ge personally ordered, the lady in charge dared not neglect Li Jiaoniang.

She led Li Jiaoniang to the old lady of the Chen family and his wife, "The master told me to treat this lady well. This is the young wife of the Lu family, Mrs. Li."

The Lu family and the Chen family are family friends. When the Lu family was mentioned, the old lady Chen immediately smiled and said, "Of course I have to take care of the grandnephew of the old lady of the Lu family. Go and reply to the master, don't worry about Mrs. Li."

The lady in charge answered "Yes" and left.

With the reception of the head of the Chen family, Li Jiaoniang suddenly became the focus of the crowd.

Everyone gathered around and talked to her one after another.

Someone said behind the crowd, "I heard that Mrs. Biao of the Lu family is a village woman, but looking at it like this, it doesn't look like it?"

"I probably learned it beforehand and pretended to be here." Someone snorted softly.

Li Jiaoniang secretly smiled, pretending?It can be pretended for a while, but it can't be pretended for a long time. It's pearls or fish eyes. You people, don't you know how to look closely?

Li Jiaoniang directly ignored the pretense of flattery, she only chatted with the girl from the Shi family whom she met not long ago.

……

Luo Cheng was invited into the study by Mr. Chen Ge.

Old Chen Ge took a letter from the drawer and handed it to Luo Cheng, "This is a handwritten letter sent by the government yesterday, young master, please read it."

Luo Cheng said lightly, "Do I need to watch it?"

Elder Chen Ge sighed, "Young Master, even if you don't like Lin'an City and the official family, you should go and have a look. Is it possible that the official family will come to pick you up in person?"

Luo Cheng didn't speak.

Elder Chen Ge said again, "The one who made mistakes back then was not the officials, but the late emperor. You shouldn't have any prejudice against the officials."

Luo Cheng mocked in his heart, although the murderer was the first emperor, but they were all sitting in that position, and their thoughts were similar.

He didn't like that impersonal place.

Luo Cheng bowed his hands to Mr. Chen Ge and gave a deep bow, "Please also ask Mr. Chen Ge to reply to the official family, saying that Luo Cheng is just a grassroots man and is not worthy of seeing each other." He added, "I come here today to attend the banquet for the old lady of the Lu family. Yes, she is not in good health, so she asked me to do it for her, and Mr. Chen Ge should not mention other things."

Old Chen Ge sighed again, "Forget it, don't mention it, don't mention it. Let's go and meet the guests. Since you are representing Mrs. Lu today, you have to meet all the old friends of the Lu family for her."

There was no way to shirk this, Luo Cheng had no choice but to agree.

Thinking of one thing, he said again, "Mr. Chen Ge, please don't call me Young Master. I'm just a commoner. Calling me like this may cause misunderstanding. Just call me by my name."

Chen Ge was always afraid of offending him. If he suddenly left Yuezhou without knowing where he was going, how could he send someone to the officials?

Someone who was hard to find...

Chen Gel had no choice but to say, "Alright, alright, I'll call you Luo Cheng."

The two walked out of the study, and Zhao Shicheng came.

"Old Chen Ge." Zhao Shicheng bowed his hands to Elder Chen Ge, and said humbly, "On behalf of my father, I send my regards to Elder Chen Ge."

"It's Mr. Zhao, please come up." Old Chen Ge smiled slightly, glanced at Luo Cheng, and said, "Luo Cheng, this is a talented scholar from Yuezhou Academy. You are about the same age, so you can communicate more."

Zhao Shicheng is a distant relative of the official family, so it shouldn't be difficult for Zhao Shicheng to introduce Luo Cheng to Lin'an, right?Old Chen Ge thought so in his heart.

Thinking of Jiaoniang's plan, Luo Cheng decided to get acquainted with Zhao Shicheng. He stepped forward and saluted Zhao Shicheng, "Brother Zhao, my surname is Luo, and my words are silent and my name is sincere."

Zhao Shicheng immediately returned the gift, "So it's Brother Luo, nice to meet you."

Thinking, this Luo Cheng is a distant relative of the Lu family, and his wife is on good terms with Tang Wan, so Zhao Shicheng became very polite to Luo Cheng.

Both of them had a purpose in their hearts, they were about the same age, and when they chatted, they found that their tempers and hobbies were similar.

As a result, the chat atmosphere became more harmonious.

Zhao Shicheng was very surprised. I heard that this distant relative of the Lu family used to be a farmer in Yunhe County, but his demeanor and conversation were nothing like him, like someone in his generation.

And this Luo Cheng has a much better character than Lu You's guy, he speaks straightforwardly without turning corners, just like him, he immediately fell in love with Luo Cheng.

He didn't need Mr. Chen Ge's company, he took Luo Cheng to stroll around Chen's house by himself.

The two chatted very happily, which made Mr. Chen Ge very happy.

During this time, Li Jiaoniang came to look for Luo Cheng, and accidentally saw that Luo Cheng had already met Zhao Shicheng and was chatting enthusiastically.

She couldn't help smiling.

Li Jiaoniang found an excuse to call out Luo Cheng quietly, and asked him in a low voice, "Did you recognize him so quickly?"

Luo Cheng said, "It was Mr. Chen Ge who made the introduction."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "In this way, we can find opportunities to see Zhao Shicheng often." She thought of another thing, smiled and said, "Brother Luo Cheng, do you know about Princess Chengyang?"

Luo Cheng's complexion changed drastically, his eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Jiao Niang, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
