77. Probing
In Da'an, the national capital, the emperor's imperial city, and the capital of such an important place, a brick falling down may hit three officials. Everyone has a family background and talks. The prince did not know that the Chu family was normal.
But the problem is that the Chu family is not an ordinary family. It once sent a girl into the palace to serve the first emperor. Now this girl is old but still alive. She was chased as too noble, and she was in the royal garden with other former palace ladies. It's old age.
What the prince said is somewhat inappropriate.
I don’t know the Chu family, but don’t know if that too noble person is a little disrespectful to the first emperor? If you know and ask deliberately, you just slapped your face, and you don't like Chu Mu or the Chu family.
Either way, it was not good news for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu didn't seem to notice it, his face was calm, his eyes were handsome, his temperament was as loose as a bamboo, and he was pleasing to the eye.
The prince asked, Chu Mu was able to hold on, but Long Qinglin could not let the embarrassment of the scene, and it was his answer before, of course continue now: "As long as the minister mentions one thing, your highness will know immediately."
The prince seemed to be very interested, his lips raised slightly, and he looked straight at Long Qinglin: "Oh?"
Long Qinglin smiled: "Lanying cloth."
"Lanying cloth?" The prince raised his voice slightly, "I heard that this cloth is extremely beautiful. It is made into clothes and worn on the body. It is radiant when walking around. It looks like a star and moon. My sister likes it very much."
The little aunt in his mouth is naturally the youngest sister of today's saint, Princess Changning.
Long Qinglin: "His Royal Highness is right."
The prince looked at Chu Mu and smiled even more: "This Lanying cloth was made by a businessman surnamed Xie. I heard that he is a male wife and his husband’s surname is Chu."
Chu Mu smiled and said, "Yes, my wife's surname is Xie, the second in the family."
Long Qinglin: "I have known Brother Chu for so long, and I didn't expect that one day, Brother Chu was famous by his wife."
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, he joked at the right time.
Of course, there is a bit of joking and a bit of ridicule in this voice, which is just a matter of opinion.
"It's a blessing for Mrs. Chu. I can't ask for it." Chu Mu was quite straightforward. Not only was he not annoyed, but he seemed to be quite proud. Because of this pride and pride, he especially wanted to pull the other party's empathy." Mrs. Bingxue is smart, and she is not as talented as a man. Recently, she has done a lot of important things in the capital, which has been appreciated by everyone. Why didn't Master Long bring it out?"
People who don't know the internal affairs of Long's family will think that Chu Mu deliberately praised these words, or they were brought by purely context. Only when they know, will they truly understand the subtleties.
Of course, Long Qinglin would not be stumped by such a small problem. He smiled and looked at the prince: "His Royal Highness is afraid that I don’t know. I and Young Master Chu are considered brothers-in-law. His wife and my wife are brothers and sisters, so the two families are very different. Get close, you know many things."
Changing the topic gently and skillfully, not only didn't answer why the wife didn't come, but also blurred the key points of the message to the point where the two families were close to each other without avoiding suspicion. It would be impolite to greet the wife of other people casually.
The prince looked at Long Qinglin, and then at Chu Mu. There was no change in his expression, and his words were a bit playful: "No wonder your relationship is so good."
Is the relationship good?
Long Qinglin would not object to the Prince's words, and smiled silently.
Chu Mu's eyebrows drooped, thoughtful.
The prince... is very different from what he imagined.
Wisdom, calm, and meticulous, he is quite a city at a young age.
After a brief moment of eye contact and few words of contact, the prince should know something clearly and also hinted something.
It's a pity that body wasn't strong in previous life, and didn't have enough energy to deal with others. In the end, died before got to the stage. don't know who was cheaper. If had met the prince earlier, maybe everything would be different.
Long Qinglin gently and skillfully pushed the words back, but Chu Mu didn't let it go, and smiled like a spring breeze: "His Royal Highness said that the inner son remembered his sister's body. The Long Mansion narrated, helplessly busy day after day, and had no chance. It happened to be met today-Master Long, I am afraid that there will be a few jars of good wine at home."
"Why is this difficult?" People in the officialdom are the best at Tai Chi, Long Qinglin smiled, "Brother Chu is coming, I will sweep the couch to welcome him! My wife is young and loves his family. After a few days of illness, he misses his brother more and more and misses his brother's care— —Speaking of which, what about Second Xie? How can you let you go alone without taking care of him? How can he be assured of your body?"
Chu Mu's face remained calm, smiling as always: "A person who is chronically ill like me most dislikes other people's fuss. My body is not as fragile as Master Long thought. I want to be alone occasionally. There is nothing to worry about."
The prince's eyelashes moved slightly, and a touch of sorrow passed quickly across his eyes.
This expression is too obvious, and he has noticed it himself. Regardless of whether others are paying attention or not, whether or not to ask questions, he speaks first: "What you said reminds me of my eldest brother. He also occasionally wants to be alone like you. Others make a fuss."
Long Qinglin immediately handed over: "Most people who are chronically ill are thin and have similar mentalities. Some places are more alike. The prince must not care about suffering."
Similar?
Did you use the wrong words, or did you follow the instructions?
Chu Mu smiled a bit playfully in his eyes.
No matter he was the prince, he didn't say these two words.
...
Xie Tingyue walked all the way in the direction of King Li, and the people who were eager to try before have already returned home.
For example, the head of the Mu family.
When the two passed by, Xie Tingyue smiled politely, and the other party also acted like an elder, ‘carefully reminder’: “Young people, be careful and careful in doing things, be too proud, and be careful.”
Whether it was He Yuanqi's matter before or Xie Ru's recent tossing, neither side could have any good feelings. The Mu family saw Xie Tingyue not pleasing to his eyes, and Xie Tingyue's temperament would naturally not be afraid.
He smiled and said: "So Patriarch Mu broke his wings?"
Patriarch Mu's end in a desperate manner, it is a fact that the wing is broken, but Xie Tingyue hasn't even tried it yet. How do people answer this?
The opponent froze for a moment, snorted coldly, waved his sleeves and left.
Xie Tingyue was not afraid of offending the Mu family at all.
As time goes by, information accumulates, and many things that were not understood before can now be figured out clearly. The Mu family was an imperial merchant, and its own ability was sufficient, so it was misleading. Xie Tingyue always felt that He Yuanqi hugged the Mu family's thighs, and Long Qing relied on the outside family to make his life, but it was not. It should be the other way round. The Mu family was originally a vassal of the Long family. The dog raised by the Long family listened to the instructions of the people, so some behaviors were instructed by the Long family, but the Mu family’s master had a lot of skills and just covered it up. People think that everything is his own power.
Xie Tingyue thought about it a little bit and found it terrifying.
The cooperation between the two parties was achieved, and there was a bridge of in-laws, and Long Qingfu's biological mother was the sister of the Mu family. Long Qinglin and Long Qingfu are the same father and brother, but the former was born by the father of Long’s concubine, while the latter was born by a concubine. Regardless of whether the concubine is a good concubine or an expensive concubine, they are all concubines, born short.
Long Qingfu's noble concubine died early, and if she didn't know how she died, her good years would have disappeared. Long Qingfu was thrown to his grandfather to raise him at a young age, and his words were nice, but his grandfather was always obsessed, and he was wrong. How to raise the children? In addition to the various words of people in the ear...
Long Qing recovered from hysteria and was in a very serious condition. He couldn't be born like ordinary people at all, so he had to be locked up and taken care of.
The two people who were really related to the Mu family turned out to be so, but the two alliances were still unbreakable. What do these people think?
The Long family cherishes this relationship, or is it unwilling to have it? Why don't you treat Longqingfu mother and son well? The Mu Family didn't respond at all to this, did they mind? Because of the help of the official power brought by the other party, the future benefits that may be obtained, the lives of your own family members are not important?
Xie Tingyue sighed inwardly.
He never dared to explore too much about the terrible degree of human nature.
Compared with Patriarch Mu, Mrs. Hang was much more friendly, and she took Xie Tingyue's hand and said a few words: "Is it old? Just look at your younger generation. You are a clever young man who knows to go to the group. words."
The old lady looked in the direction of the mission as she spoke and blinked her eyes, very lively.
Xie Tingyue was amused by her, and helped the old lady walk to the table and sit down: "Would you like to go to the mission to take a look?"
The corners of the old lady's lips drooped, and she snorted: "The old man has nothing to say with the barbarians, so I might as well sit here and drink some water to moisten my throat."
Xie Tingyue watched the old man lose her temper like a child, and wondered if this man had offended her?
From Hang Qingxi’s reply and the dossier of Chu Mu’s news channel, he knows that Mrs. Hang’s business style is the same as that of a human being. He is quite decent. No matter what, everyone depends on their ability. If you are good, I will take it. I am good. You have to kneel down and sing to conquer. Don't blame the old lady for being rude.
Mrs. Hang is definitely not a person who disregards the overall situation because of personal grievances and personal preferences.
Now that it looks like this, I am not very interested in the leading position of this mutual market...
Not interested, don't care, what are you here for?
Xie Tingyue thought about the problem all the way, and finally came to the front of King Li.
Lest there are too many variables, he saluted and simply hit a straight ball: "Dare to ask the prince, is that small object cold?"
King Li almost pulled a strand of beard directly: "How do you know!"
And this kid doesn't follow the routine! got into the topic without even a greeting, do you want to scare the lord to death!
Xie Tingyue's heart fell loose, and sure enough, it was this thing.
King Li was very excited for a while, looked around, and started to nervous again, and grabbed Xie Tingyue's arm: "You can bid now, be careful, you only have three chances!"
Xie Tingyue looked down: "Xie Wangye raised a point, I understand."
King Li's hand still didn't let go.
Xie Tingyue: "The prince... hurt me."
King Li seemed to have just reacted, quickly let go of him, and patted him on the shoulder again with a haha smile: "I'm sorry, this king is too excited, too excited! Come, talk about your price!"
"The prince is very strong," Xie Tingyue seemed to complain, and then said the price she had guessed, "Leng Songyan, no money."
In the previous dialogue with the head of the mission, Wu Kui did not give any detailed clues, but guessed based on the other party's mood and mood. He disliked the hurdle he planted, and felt resentful, unwilling and angry. Leng Songyan was robbed by mountain bandits. Everyone who was present at some avenues knew that in order to save the group's face, probably not a few people would dare to mention it.
In addition to the other party's evaluation of Chu Mu, the words are very ugly, what rotten sores, people who are dying, useless things are worthless...
What is lost is not worth the money.
What's more, the palace basically has a quasi-credit, and the eldest prince can't survive for a few days.
This cold smoky smoke is no longer useful and worthless.
Xie Tingyue boldly guessed that the price given by the mission was no money!
The Chiman Mission is probably a gambler, dare to play, everything thrown is stepped on sensitive points, it depends on whether you dare to gamble! Because the facts are not complicated, the gambling is just courage, and the prince has no reason to refuse!
What three bidding opportunities are simply blindfolds!
Xie Tingyue was very confident in her guess, but no matter how confident she was, she would inevitably be nervous before getting the final answer. He looked at King Li without blinking his eyes.
King Li was stunned for a while, then suddenly slapped Xie Tingyue on the shoulder: "You kid is amazing, great! I have something for you!"
He directly took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Xie Tingyue.
"Thank you, Lord."
Xie Tingyue took the things, did not dare to leave them for a while, turned around and ran.
King Li is too much! People's eyes were drawn over, and it is estimated that everyone now knows that something is on his Xie Tingyue!
Not to mention King Li's side, Xie Tingyue dare not stop at any corner.
He has been running, all kinds of circling, in short, no one can find him now!
The rules of the game are only for the first round. Since Leng Songyan has left King Li, he will rely on his skills. Others can go the right way and ask him to ask for bids, or they can not take the usual path, cheating, coaxing, screaming, steal……
After all, the rules of the game didn't say that it was not allowed?
Xie Tingyue now urgently needs to buy some time to do something confusing.
He ran all over the court, and people chased him all over the court, and the guards weren't able to intervene. He thought of all possible accidents and prepared a lot of emergency measures. He never expected that he would lose in physical strength!
He has no strength!
Shortness of breath, sweat on the forehead, pain and sore feet, watching people behind are about to catch up!
Xie Tingyue couldn't help sighing, could it really be the only way to put things out for a while, and then do something else?
At this moment, a person suddenly rushed out of the diagonal stab, his waist was wrapped by a big hand.
The familiar breath and temperature rushed over her face, and Xie Tingyue subconsciously jumped onto the person with her strength, holding on tightly.
"Madam is so enthusiastic... But you want to be your husband?" Chu Mu laughed as always, jokingly and slowly, making people blush.
Xie Tingyue didn't have time to be shy, and hugged Chu Mu's neck tightly: "What nonsense? Go!"
Chu Mu laughed lowly: "I follow Madam's order."
The wheelchair is equipped with a mechanism, which can hide and hurt people, and can move quickly.
Soon, the two left everyone behind and came to a quiet corner.
"Finally it's okay..."
Xie Tingyue's feet were still soft, so she simply didn't get down on Chu Mu's legs and sighed quietly against Chu Mu's chest.
He panted slightly, his face was red after intense exercise, rosy and alluring.
Chu Mu couldn't hold back, and leaned forward and kissed him for a while.
Xie Tingyue was ashamed for a moment, pushed him away, and saw that there was no one on all sides, excitedly describing to him what happened before: "You don't know, I met the head of the mission——"
Pour out all the information before and after, and talked about my own analysis and guess, how the hit was hit, took something from King Li, and was chased by such a person...
Xie Tingyue was very excited and somewhat proud.
"Madam is really smart." Chu Mu kissed him on his forehead, and his voice was as low as wine after years, "It's just..."
Xie Tingyue raised her eyebrows suddenly: "Just?"
Chu Mu always had a definite target. He would never throw cold water on people casually. He would say so, there must be a reason. What did he think of?
"Is it a little too smooth?" Chu Mu lowered his eyebrows, with cascading tides hidden in his eyes, "How can I say a few words to that Wu Kui so I can understand all the profound meaning?"
Madam is naturally smart, but in this way, the result that can be obtained because of smartness requires the cooperation of others.
Xie Tingyue frowned: "You mean, Wu Kui did it on purpose?"
Wu Kui could not lie to him. If he deliberately deceived, he could not come up with the correct information and get something from King Li. Since there was no deceit, those words were all true. So deliberately, why?
The other party showed up on their own initiative and knew him. They seemed to be very interested in Lanying cloth, but somehow the topic mentioned Chu Mu-the other party seemed to dislike Chu Mu very much.
Intentionally, or intentionally?
Is Wu Kui really interested in Lanying cloth or Chu Mu?
Because he didn't want Chu Mu to be unhappy, Xie Tingyue didn't tell about this conversation. Now that he didn't hesitate, he explained the conversation in detail and asked Chu Mu directly: "Do you know anyone in Chiman?"
Feng Jiuyou reminds you: Seek collection (
), and then it is more convenient to look at.
