Chapter 114: Pedal on two boats
Ye Chen and Chen Bing stayed alone in the Lin Mansion for lunch, while Wanhu, Wu Youtian and others left the Lin Mansion very wisely, saying that they had not been on the streets for a long time and took everyone out for a walk, and they always regarded money as their life.
For the first time, Butler Chen gave Wanhu a hundred taels of silver and asked the brothers to eat something good outside in the evening. He also said that there was no need to worry about letting go! Ye Chen just smiled and said nothing, and the two of them each
Be thoughtful.
Lin Yanyan's whole body has changed since Ye Chen arrived. Uncle Lin saw this and smiled in his heart. Ever since Chen Bing saw Lu Ye, he kept helping her do this and that. It was so bad.
Luye didn't dare to raise her head while walking, just because she was afraid that others would see her red little face.
Ye Chen and Lin Yanyan didn't know what to do, so they simply ran to Lin's flower garden and started to enjoy the flowers. Green Leaf seemed to have endless things to do, and couldn't stop while busy here and there.
Lin Yanyan looked at the green leaves moving east and west, and said to Ye Chen with a smile: "You see, Chen Bing frightened Ye'er to the point where she was at a loss. This little girl usually hides away from Qingxian whenever she can. How can she?"
She's so busy. It's a good day. Chen Bing has been so busy since she came here that she has never been idle."
"Don't mention it, since the lanterns were sent to the last lantern show, the relationship between the two seems to have been reduced to just a layer of window paper." Ye Chen said with a smile.
"Anyway, I don't think Ye'er hates Chen Bing. Although she doesn't agree with her words, I still understand her after she has been with me for so many years." Lin Yanyan said while looking at Luye who ran to the west and followed Chen Bing closely behind her.
Before Ye Chen could speak, Lin Yanyan suddenly turned to look at Ye Chen and said playfully: "They are both like this, so what do you think our relationship is now?" A pair of big round eyes stared at Ye Chen closely.
Chen's eyes were looking forward to his answer.
"Bingzi, wait a minute, I'll help you lift it!" Unexpectedly, Ye Chen ignored Lin Yanyan's words and took the opportunity to go to Chen Bing's place to work. Lin Yanyan stomped his feet in anger. For a noble lady,
It was rare for someone to say such words so proactively, but Ye Chen was stunned and refused to accept the move.
After dinner, Ye Chen and Lin Yanyan took a walk in the courtyard, while Chen Bing and Lu Ye followed behind. The two of them laughed from time to time. A day of getting along also made Lu Ye Song relax his nervous mood.
Chen Bing was even more happy. The two of them didn't even look at Ye Chen and Lin Yanyan in front of them. It was as if they didn't exist. Lin Yanyan was extremely happy when she saw this scene.
The good times always passed quickly, and when the time came for the two of them to leave, they were still reluctant to leave. Zou Hu, Wu Youtian and others, who had returned from their outing, had also arrived outside the Lin Mansion.
Zou Hu looked at Chen Bing's reluctant look and smiled: "Bingzi, why should I hurry up? It's not the boss who is coming today but you?"
Lin Yanyan on the side looked at Ye Chen meaningfully and whispered to him with a smile: "So you are the one who wants to come?"
Ye Chen smiled and said nothing. Lin Yanyan was so angry that she pinched his lower back hard. The pain made Ye Chen break into a cold sweat.
"Ye Chen, why are you like a piece of wood?" Miss Lin said angrily.
Chen Bing on the side said with added jealousy: "Is he stupid? I don't know who told me this morning that Lin Wu is back. He insisted on coming to the Lin Mansion for free. I don't know where Lin Wu is now."
Lin Yanyan listens
After saying this, he suddenly smiled and turned to look at Ye Chen, who was covering his lower back with one hand, and said, "Did you say that?"
Ye Chen still smiled stupidly and said nothing. Zou Hu on the side joked: "Boss, your waist is not very good. What have you done today?"
Ye Chen couldn't tell that this kid was holding back his words, so he quickly said to Lin Yanyan: "Yanyan, let's go back first, and we'll see you next time!"
"If you had told me earlier that you were here to see me, it wouldn't have been so troublesome!" Chen Bing said angrily. The group of people walked excitedly on the street, singing passionately, but no one paid attention to the dark shadow behind them.
In a house in the north of Annan Road, the old man who once claimed to be a slave of a certain prince in front of various gangs looked at the young man in front of him and said: "The prince knows that your brother has a good personal relationship with Li Linhu, and he also knows that Li Linhu has been looking for you many times.
You will receive a high position and a good salary, but before that you have to walk your own path?"
The young man dressed as a scholar said: "Mr. Li, I know what the prince means, but I am just a commoner. How can I let a person of the prince's status care so much about me? San'er is so grateful."
The old man known as Mr. Li was dressed in plain clothes, but his brows were full of murderous intent. Even if the young man just stood there and looked at him, he felt very depressed. When the old man heard that the young man was so humble, he smiled and said: "Young man, like
For a young scholar like you to be favored by the prince is a blessing you gained in your previous life. Do you know how many people dream of winning the prince's favor but can't, so just be content."
At this time, the door was slowly pushed open, and a charming woman wearing a long red dress and heavy makeup walked in. When she saw the master, she curtsied and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I found it."
The old man nodded with a smile, waved to the charming woman and said with a smile: "Yue'er, come here, this young man is Zhao Qingzhou, the third brother of Boss Zhao. You must cooperate well from now on."
The woman named Yue'er slowly stepped forward and looked at the handsome young man in front of her. She stared straight at Zhao Qingzhou with her eyebrows and eyes, which made his scalp tingle.
"What a young talent." The woman saluted him and continued, "My name is Jing Yue, you can call me Yue'er."
Mr. Li said: "She is my goddaughter. You must contact her in the future. If you have any questions, you can go to her directly here. She will definitely help you if she can help you."
Zhao Qingzhou looked at the charming woman in front of him and said after a while: "I want Ye Chen to die!"
Jing Yue covered her face and kept laughing, leaving Zhao Qingzhou confused. Mr. Li said calmly with empty eyes, "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements. Ye Chen won't live long."
Zhao Qingming looked at the calm old man, and his heart was full of emotion. In order to avenge his brother, he now has two things to do, but what he doesn't understand is what the people behind the old man see in him, and why they always stare at him.
He refused to let go, and even volunteered to avenge his eldest brother Zhao Qingming. Before Zhao Qingming's accident, Zhao Qingzhou was full of ambitions, and becoming an official in the court had almost become his only goal in this life. But when his brother Zhao Qingming was beheaded by the executioner at Caishikou, it began
, hatred has taken over everything in him.
"Your Majesty will live up to you, Zhao Qingzhou, and I, Zhao Qingzhou, will definitely live up to your kindness." The young man said firmly.
The old man stood up and said: "Okay, the prince admires young people like you, respectable and awesome!" After that, he took out four or five pieces of rice paper from his arms and handed them to Zhao Qingzhou and said: "This is written by a descendant of the Gu Xin Taoist clan.
Take a good look at the current poetry reviews, you can use them directly in the literary reviews early next year, and no one will hold you accountable."
Zhao Qingzhou took the rice paper filled with articles and poems from the old man's hand, threw it on the table without looking at it, and said in a neutral tone: "I, Zhao Qingzhou, have thought that the literary criticism in Huaisu County, Annan Road does not need these.
Isn't it possible that those years of studying hard in the cold window are not as good as those cynical children of the gentry?" After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Jing Yue stunned for a moment.
After Zhao Qingzhou left, Jing Yue looked at the old man in confusion. She didn't understand why her adoptive father only fell in love with this poor scholar among the many talented people and beauties in Annan Road. The old man seemed to have noticed his daughter's doubts, so he explained: "Li Linhu
That man is so unjust for profit. Do you think he would wholeheartedly help this brat just for the sake of childhood love? It’s impossible.” The old man drank the tea brewed by Jing Yue and continued: “There are rumors in the world that there is a big man in Zhao Qingzhou.
There are millions of gold in the vault, but this secret cannot be investigated after he disappears. The only clue is his third brother Zhao Qingzhou. In the current situation, money means people, and more people means strength. In addition,
With the power of the prince, there is no need to worry about the failure of great things."
Jing Yue immediately asked: "Is it worth spending so much money on him just based on unfounded rumors?"
"There may be no reason for the groundless rumors. Besides, the ambition in Zhao Qingzhou's heart is not comparable to that of ordinary gentry children. As long as he passes the literary review, walks out of Annan Road and enters the court, the prince will have a way to make him rise to prominence. Moreover, the prince will have a bright future in a few years.
Major events are bound to be inseparable from the support of the palace. In the future, this Zhao Qingzhou will be a chess piece placed by the prince next to that noble man. The role of the chess piece depends on the person who plays the chess!" The old man continued with a smile: "From now on, as long as this is the
Whatever request the boy makes to you, as long as it is not excessive, try to satisfy him. But based on my understanding of him, I estimate that he will not take the initiative to come to you. What you have to do is not to let him leave your sight before he leaves Annan Road and enters Beijing.
"
Jing Yue bowed her head respectfully and said, "Yue'er knows that she will definitely live up to her adoptive father's trust."
In the Li Mansion in Gyeonggi Province, the chief steward Lin Bo stood beside him and did not dare to say anything. Ever since he found out who had taken action, Li Linhu had never felt better.
"He is clearly relying on his status as a prince to ignore the existence of my Li family. One day I will let him know what it means to seize food from the tiger's mouth." Li Linhu suddenly slapped the table and roared.
Butler Li said: "Then let's go beat Zhao Qingzhou again and let him know who is the one who can give him light."
Li Linhu waved his hand and said: "No, this Zhao Qingzhou is no worse than his elder brother Zhao Qingming. If my guess is right, Zhao Qingzhou is also wandering between me and him. But for the sake of that batch of gold, we have to be a little patient with him. This kid
It’s not simple!”
"Sir, I don't understand. If there really is this batch of one million taels of gold as rumored in the world, then why didn't Zhao Qingzhou take it out by himself to revitalize the Qinglong Gang? Why did he still hide it?" Grand Butler Li Bo was confused.
