Red makeup against the world

Chapter 628 The next road

The two came out of the East Wing, and Tu Manzhen said: "I thought, I would go to pay my respects to Mrs. Guo after the lunch break. Our sisters came to stay for a few days, and it would be rude not to say hello. Who would have thought that my sister would encounter such a situation?" thing."

Xu Wanzhen comforted her and said, "It's not like I'm leaving today, I just go to pay my respects after dinner."

Mrs. Chen is currently sick, and she is being taken care of by Nanny Tian and Madam Tian, ​​so she probably doesn't have so much free time to worry about these things.If it is a temporary visit, you must first greet the elders, so as not to be rude.

Tu Manzhen nodded and dismissed the matter.With such a big matter as Tu Manfen here, she didn't have the heart to think about it.

She said worriedly: "Cousin Wanzhen, I know you have always had more ideas than us. Tell me, what should my sister do?"

"The most important thing right now is to take care of your body first." Xu Wanzhen said: "Nothing is more important than your own body." She has a deep understanding of this.

Tu Manzhen nodded, it was natural. "It's just, how will my sister live in the future? Cousin, tell me, Cheng Jinghao looks like a dog, how could he do such a thing!"

Xu Wanzhen sighed: "Aren't there less clothes and beasts? A dude like him is used to being spoiled, and if he doesn't like it, he will feel dissatisfied and wait for an opportunity to retaliate. What to do next mainly depends on Cousin Manfen's intentions."

"If she wants to live with Cheng Jinghao, let the eldest aunt and first cousin come forward and talk to Mrs. Hou about the matter. The Cheng family has to show an attitude! Cousin Manfen can't be bullied for nothing."

"Then what if you don't want to?" Tu Manzhen was not sure what her sister meant.

"It's even easier if you don't want to. If you come out this time, you don't have to go back. I told my cousin and aunt, and came to ask for an explanation, and brought someone to bring the dowry back, and we made peace."

Hearing Xu Wanzhen's resolute words, Tu Manzhen said: "If it were me, I would choose the latter one. My sister has been married to him for almost three years, and they all say that they are married for one night and one hundred nights. Cheng Jinghao has gone too far!"

As she said that, she lowered her head in shame, and asked: "Cousin Wanzhen, do you think it's because Liu Qiran found Cheng Jinghao, and he felt that he had hurt face, so he took revenge on his sister? Liu Qiran only said that it was done, and I also I didn’t ask in detail how it was done.”

"How can I blame you? You are also kind." Xu Wanzhen comforted her with gentle words: "Even if there is something wrong, it's just letting what should happen sooner or later happen in advance. At least, we can be lucky at this time, and we can find out about him as soon as possible. The real face. If they really wait until they have a child, it will not be as easy as it is right now."

"So, it's better if the child in my sister's womb can't be kept?" Tu Manzhen couldn't bear it.

"Oh, it's a life after all. Having said that, it's better to hope that he is safe and sound." Xu Wanzhen sighed.

……

In the study in the front yard of Duke Zhongguo's mansion.

Liu Qiran sat on the teacher's chair idly, swinging his right leg and humming a slang song.

Wu Zhengxiang looked at him amusedly.I don't have any friendship with him, but I ran here suddenly today, and I just refused to leave, what kind of idea was I playing?

He asked the servant to serve him tea, while he read the art of war and left Liu Qiran aside.

Liu Qiran's temperament is thick-skinned, so why do he care if others let him go?He took a sip of tea comfortably, made a "tsk tsk" sound, and praised: "As expected of the Zhongguo Mansion, the tea served to the guests is the best Yuqian Longjing, our Pingguo Mansion is incomparable."

Holding the tea bowl, he walked behind Wu Zhengxiang, stretched his neck to look at the book in his hand, and said, "What's so good about this military book? You can't go to the battlefield to lead the army. Your Wu family has a general, why don't you think about it?" A second one?"

Now that Wu Zhengxiang could no longer turn a blind eye to him, he closed the book and said, "One reason is clear, Bai Liming."

Immediately, he looked at Liu Qiran who was in a daze and laughed, and said, "Forget it, why am I telling you this? After all, what's the matter? If you don't say anything else, I'm going to drive you away."

"Don't worry, I'm here to see you today because I have something serious to do." Liu Qiran chuckled.

Looking around, Liu Qiran asked, "Maybe you can rest assured if you talk here?"

Seeing that he was cautious, Wu Zhengxiang whistled.After waiting for a while, a few frog calls came from outside the door. "Okay, you go ahead."

Seeing this movement, Liu Qiran's jaw almost dropped to the ground: "No way, my military commander. This is in my own house, why don't you make it so strict?"

"What? Do you have an opinion?" Wu Zhengxiang gave him a sideways look.

"Don't dare, you can do whatever you want." Liu Qiran felt a chill down his spine for no reason, and quickly waved his hands in denial.What a joke, how dare he interfere with the famous Commander of the Xiaoqi Guards.

"I've wanted to chat with you a long time ago, but I just couldn't find the right time." Liu Qiran said.

Wu Zhengxiang nodded, the two of them had no friendship before, if they got together suddenly, it would be strange if they were not suspected.

"I wanted my wife to post a post to invite her cousin to meet, so we can meet up by the way. Unexpectedly, today your wife posted a post to invite her, so I followed."

Wu Zhengxiang looked at him with his chest in his arms. Liu Qiran had a reputation as a devil king in Beijing.What is the big deal that can make him twist and turn like this?
Liu Qiran suddenly lowered his voice, moved closer to Wu Zhengxiang and said, "I'm getting more and more confused about the current situation. You are a close minister of the emperor, can you give me some pointers?"

An inexplicable light flashed in Wu Zhengxiang's eyes, and he asked lightly, "What do you mean by that?"

Liu Qiran said anxiously: "You and I, brothers, let's be clear here and don't speak dark words. The dispute between the crown prince and the king of Qi is getting more and more fierce. I don't believe you can't see it! Others may be able to stay out of it, but we wait for the noble It must be unavoidable. Sooner or later, there must be someone to support."

"You can see the danger of this when you look at Duke Anguo's mansion. If they hadn't been in the wrong team back then, how could they have been silent for so many years? Shi Jingze is my brother. He is obviously a man with both civil and military skills, but he was forced to Live lazy!"

After these words, seeing that Wu Zhengxiang was unmoved, Liu Qiran took a deep breath, and threw out his prepared trump card: "You don't think about yourself, you have to think about your elder brother. He will inherit the title sooner or later, so he can't avoid it." This vortex of seizing the throne."

Wu Zhengxiang's heart skipped a beat.That's right, he has a way out, and he doesn't care about the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion, so he just walks away.

But he knew that his eldest brother, Wu Sheng, was the eldest son, and he had a natural sense of responsibility and mission to the Duke of Zhongguo. His roots and home were here.To put it a bit exaggerated, Wu Sheng will live and die with the Zhongguo government.

Liu Qiran watched his words and expressions from the side. Seeing him move, he hurriedly asked while the iron was hot: "In our house, you can't rely on my father. So, I want to ask, in your mind, who do you think you are?"
