Concubine Agent: My lord, stop pretending

Chapter 199 Proposal, black and white duet

Shen Zhibi looked at Chu Qingzhou lightly, his smile remained unchanged, but his tone could not conceal his loneliness and longing: "Everyone has different opinions, some people think he is generous, some people think he is strict and difficult to approach, so relying on personal vision , it is difficult to define a person's true character and good or bad."

"Then in the heart of the eldest son, what kind of person is the second son?" Chu Qingzhou didn't intend to end the topic, and continued to ask after him.

"Of course I think the second brother is good. He has been smart since he was a child, learns things quickly, has a humble and gentle personality, and handles things with courtesy and restraint. He is very safe." When Shen Zhimo was mentioned, Shen Zhibi looked nostalgic A gratified smile.

Chu Qingzhou nodded, and suddenly asked sharply: "I heard that the second son has violated the family rules several times, and the eldest son deliberately withdrew the power in his hand."

Shen Zhibi didn't deny it, restrained his smile a little, and said lightly: "He is young and lacks concentration, so he will inevitably be distracted by the temptations of the world. As the eldest brother, he has done something wrong, and I cannot forgive him." It's his fault. Out of consideration for the imperial court and the Shen family, I have no choice. But he is a member of my Shen family after all, and when he realizes his mistakes, he will be my good brother again."

Chu Qingzhou was surprised when he heard the words, and then suddenly smiled: "What the eldest son said is true, I know."

"What is the meaning of Master Chu's question?" Shen Zhibi asked in puzzlement.

"It's nothing, it's just that it doesn't look the same as what I heard." Chu Qingzhou said lightly.

Shen Zhibi nodded clearly: "Everyone's concepts and opinions are different, which is normal. In the eyes of outsiders, the second brother's playful habits are easy to change, but in my eyes, he is just a A child who made a mistake."

"What the eldest son said is easy. I heard that the second son owed a lot of huge debts outside. How can it be as simple as being greedy?" Chu Qingzhou retorted mercilessly, "Actually, if a person disappears from this world Then everything he has carried will also be sealed in dust with him."

Shen Zhibi's expression was a little dark, as if he didn't want to listen to the arrangement of the Shen family and Shen Zhimo, he said in a deep voice: "What does Master Chu mean by this? Although the Shen family is not rich, it will not owe you money." You don't pay your debts, and you even use those low-level tricks to deceive the world!"

A strange color flashed between Chu Qingzhou's eyebrows, and he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That is, it's just rumors, you don't have to worry, Eldest Young Master."

"What did Lord Chu say? The dead are the most important. I'm afraid that my second brother's reputation will be tarnished." Shen Zhibi met Chu Qingzhou's sharp eyes and said solemnly.

"The eldest son wants to rectify the name of the second son?" Chu Qingzhou smiled lightly, "Reputation doesn't come just by talking about it."

"What do Master Chu think?" Shen Zhibi's face turned a little cold, which added a little bit of chill to his pale face.

Su Yu watched the two face each other coldly, and they had discussed it before they entered the mansion. One possibility needs to be ruled out first, that is whether Shen Zhimo is really dead.And if you do this, you will naturally need a proposer.After discussing, this black face can only be done by Chu Qingzhou.

"It's actually very simple to justify the second son's name." Chu Qingzhou looked at Shen Zhibi seriously, and said word by word, "The only way is to open the coffin for an autopsy."

Although Chu Qingzhou's words were light and light, but after he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the banquet fell to freezing point in an instant, and they all looked at the two of them with strange eyes.

"Lord Chu, be careful!" Shen Zhizhi suddenly stood up and exclaimed.

"I'm just making a suggestion, so as to block the people's mouths, but the court still believes in the Shen family and will not interfere in the Shen family's affairs!" Chu Qingzhou changed his claim, and his expression became indifferent.

"Since Lord Chu said so, the court must have thought so too." Shen Zhibi smiled coldly, glanced at Yehuan and Su Yu, and nodded lightly, "In that case, the Shen family can only obey."

"Brother!" Shen Zhizhi grabbed Shen Zhibi's arm, his expression full of reluctance, "Brother, this must never be done..."

Shen Zhibi gently raised his hand to stop Shen Zhizhi's words, and said lightly: "For the sake of the Shen family and the second brother's reputation, the second brother must agree." After a pause, he closed his eyes deeply, feeling the pain Said, "Order to go down, tomorrow, open the coffin for an autopsy!"

Shen Zhizhi gritted his teeth and glanced at Chu Qingzhou, then nodded helplessly: "Yes."

Shen Zhibi took a deep breath, opened his eyes and coughed twice, and said to the crowd: "I'm really unwell, so I'll excuse you first, please go ahead." After saying that, without waiting for everyone to express their opinions, Shen Yi helped out Dining room.

"Sorry everyone, I'm going to see my brother." Shen Zhizhi said and left.Chu Qingzhou smiled indifferently, took a sip of wine, and looked indifferent.

Ye Huan raised his eyebrows and smiled, and had a drink with Chu Qingzhou.

Su Yan and Ye Jing glanced at each other, and lost their previous interest, each thinking about something.

Ye Lingxue, on the other hand, saw that the two Shen brothers had left, and immediately became angry: "What do you mean, is this trying to embarrass us?"

Su Yan smiled faintly: "He invited us to dinner with good intentions, but we are fine. It is normal for the host to make a face when he asks for the coffin to be opened for autopsy at the banquet. It would be good not to kick us out."

"Sweeping out? How dare he!" Ye Lingxue slapped the table, revealing her aggressive and perverse temper, "What kind of a thing is he, the Shen family? How dare he treat us like this? See if I won't tell my father, and withdraw his Shen family's imperial merchants." qualification!"

Everyone frowned and didn't answer Ye Lingxue's words.

"Why don't you talk? Is that the way to go?" Ye Lingxue looked at a few people indignantly. Go home!" After saying that, he left the dining hall, followed by Yinwei.

"Let's go back too." Su Yu looked at Ye Jing, and then said to Ye Huan, "You can stay and check the tribute record from the year before last."

Ye Huan nodded, looked at Chu Qingzhou, and asked, "Master Chu, will you stay?"

Chu Qingzhou smiled and said: "People who want to come to the Shen family don't want to see me, so I'd better send the prince and concubine back to the mansion."

Ye Huan nodded, made some arrangements, and sent the three of them out of the Shen residence.

On the way, Su Yan deliberately left a secret note in Yunlou that he wanted to see Yunxiao.Since Ye Jing wants to see Yun Xiao, let them meet. Anyway, paper can't cover fire, maybe they can get a month's antidote.

After sending the two to the city guard's mansion, Chu Qingzhou went to the Yamen, as if there was something urgent that he needed to deal with.

Ye Jing and Su Yan went to Ting Yuxuan, Ye Jing's pace was slightly quick, completely ignoring Su Yan who was trotting behind.

"Hey, what are you doing walking so fast?" Su Yan hurriedly followed and asked puzzledly.

Ye Jing didn't speak, went into the room and fell on the bed, closing her eyes.
