Chapter 271: Raw rice is almost ready to be cooked
Next, two things happened.
King Cheng didn't know how he provoked the emperor, so he was beaten twenty times by the emperor and sent back to the palace to reflect.
Another one, Jin Wang Li Xu, finished his errands and returned to the capital.
Bring back the final investigation of the Li family case.
After all, the south is good at raising people. Li Xu came back feeling much more energetic.
After handing the briefing to the emperor, the emperor felt anxious. He opened it and read it from the beginning. His eyes settled for a while, and then he slowly read it again.
He suddenly laughed, "Well, things went well! You can go back home and rest first!"
King Jin's attitude was no different from before. He thanked the emperor and left.
The emperor looked at his leaving figure...
What's going on? It's such a tight trap, but he didn't fall for it?
Or is there something wrong?
Is he lucky... or is he out of luck?
talk later!
The emperor issued an order, and the Ministry of Punishment concluded the case accordingly, preparing to return the Li family's property, and then asked the Ministry of Rites to prepare Li Feng's marquis reward, and Li Feng took over the command of the city defense.
At this moment, it is time for the Li family and the Zhang family to terminate their contract.
In fact, it's very simple. Just exchange the invitation cards and tokens from the two families, get the marriage certificate together, and tear it up.
Unexpectedly, no one from the Zhang family came at the appointed time.
No one from the Zhang family came because his family had changed their mind again.
Mr. Zhang, I recently met a well-informed person and told him about the Li family's affairs this morning. Although the decree has not yet been officially issued, the matter has been found out and settled! We just have to wait for the formalities!
Mr. Zhang really didn’t know about this before. At his level, he didn’t know everything. Now when he heard it, he was shocked. He quickly ran home and told his wife and daughter!
Mrs. Zhang blushed when she heard this!
Oh my God, Lord Marquis!? An only son!? A huge family fortune!? Just a widowed mother from a humble background!
Isn’t that something you can just walk in and have the final say in everything!?
Oh my God, how did I find a son-in-law for my girl?
Zhang Wenjuan almost shed tears after hearing this. Both families are so good, but what should we do?
After hearing this, Zhang Wenzhen felt angry, anxious, and sad, let alone mentioning it. How could such a good marriage be allowed to happen to my sister?! I was the one who made it happen! A blind cat kills a mouse, so I don’t have such good luck.
!
She quickly thought of a way...
Mrs. Zhang said to her husband, "The Wu family's marriage was originally a blessing. But now it seems that even if his family has a higher family status... people have high standards, so they must look down on them! There is a huge gap between our two families."
Even Wenjuan’s dowry has to be paid for by the Wu family. No one is stupid. If you marry into her, you will be looked down upon."
Mr. Zhang, "The seventh son of Wu is just a scholar. I don't know if he can pass the Jinshi examination. Even if he passes the exam, how can he survive in less than ten years? He is still the seventh eldest son in the family. If the family is divided, he can divide it."
How much property will you get?"
Mrs. Zhang looked at the trapped eldest girl and asked her second daughter, "Wenzhen, what do you think is good?!"
What is Zhang Wenzhen saying to her heart? Oh, my sister will marry into the Wu family, and I will marry into the Li family... This is great!
But, how is this possible? You have to make a calculation!
Zhang Wenzhen said, "If the two families are compared, it would be better for my sister to join the Li family! At least, we can have the final say!"
Mrs. Zhang said, "That's exactly what I said!"
I can ask for more betrothal gifts... I still have children, so what can I do if I don't want more?
After everyone analyzed it, they decided, "This marriage cannot be canceled!!"
Therefore, the Li family, who were waiting for the Zhang family to return the marriage certificate, waited for nothing.
Mrs. Li fainted, "Isn't it today that we made the appointment? She has something to do, so she can't send someone to deliver the things?"
The matchmaker said, "Mrs. Li, let me go and take a look?"
Mrs. Li nodded, "This matter has been delayed for a long time. Please go and take a look!"
As a result, the matchmaker went to Zhang's house, but she didn't see Mrs. Zhang. The mother-in-law who came out was smiling and directly handed the matchmaker two taels of silver.
"Mom, our wife said that there are important things happening at home these days, so I don't have time to see my wife today. When I'm done with this, I'll go and apologize to my wife in person!"
The matchmaker said, "What? My wife? The Zhang family is not..."
The mother-in-law said, "The Zhang and Li families are biologically related. Of course they are in-laws. Mom, you don't understand this? Do you want some matchmaker tea?" She smiled while holding the handkerchief.
.
This time, the matchmaker was also shocked. She quickly came back and told Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li blinked for a long time, not understanding what the Zhang family meant at all.
I quickly went to my aunt's house and told her.
Ren Baihui didn't know anything about the Li family and wondered, "This family is really strange. Let's wait and see what they say?"
Mrs. Li said, "This family is so thoughtful! No matter what, I have to let Xiu'er come that day. I can't deal with them!"
Ren Baihui smiled and said, "It's hard enough for you to endure this!"
Mrs. Li said, "Oh, I wish I had listened to Xiu'er earlier!"
Ren Baihui said, "I will take Xiu'er over and let her stay at home for a few days."
Old Mrs. Lin is arranging a meeting with the Wang family with Mr. Huang. As a young man, it would be nice to see each other. I originally wanted to make it more natural and let a few girls go.
Seeing that the An family came to pick up Lin Zhixiu again, the old lady was very angry and asked someone to call Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu knew what the old lady was doing, and she was unwilling to go, so she dressed up specially when she came.
The old lady and Mrs. Huang saw the beautiful woman coming in with a gust of fragrance...
The old lady felt guilty at that time. When she went to meet him, she couldn't bring this girl with her! There was no need to cause trouble.
So he happily agreed to Lin Zhixiu's stay at his uncle's house for a few days.
Uncle An's house had Lin Zhixiu's yard and everything she needed in the house. She just tidied it up briefly and went out.
After getting on the car, she ordered, "Go to Prince Cheng's Mansion first!"
When they arrived, Dongyun went down and said to the man at the door, "Can you please go in and let me know, we are from the An family and we want to see the prince for something."
The person watching the door was a soldier, and he was very happy. "Wait! Our prince may not be able to see you!"
After a while, Wu Dong picked him up personally. He knew Dongyun, "Miss Dongyun, in the car is..."
Dongyun said, "She's my girl!"
With a smile on his face, Wu Dong said quickly, "Then please come in through the side door. The car can go in directly!"
Not far ahead, there was a small gate. The An family's carriage entered the palace directly. The carriage stopped and Lin Zhixiu climbed up and got out.
Wu Dong quickly saluted, "Miss Lin San!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "Uncle Dong! How is the prince?"
Wu Dong's face looked ugly, "I really hit him twenty times!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Did we ask for a doctor?!"
Wu Dong said, "Please, the doctor said that the muscles and bones are not injured, just swelling and congestion. After taking medicine, I feel better today." He could hear the distress in his tone.
Lin Zhixiu nodded and followed him inside.
After entering the main courtyard, before entering the main room, Li Cheng slowly walked out of the room.
Lin Zhixiu took two quick steps forward and asked, "Why did you get up?"
When Li Cheng saw her, his face was filled with happiness, grievance, and a little shame. "Axiu! I'm so happy that you can come see me!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "I'm going to my uncle's house and I just happened to come to see you. Are you okay? Do you still feel pain?!"
Li Cheng pretended to be a gentleman, stretched out his arm, and asked Lin Zhixiu to help him.
Lin Zhixiu "..." ignored him and went directly into the house.
Li Chengxian followed slowly without missing a beat.
Wu Dong said, "I'm going to ask my servants to get some fruit tea. Miss Lin will chat with me for a while!" Then he winked, and Dongyun felt embarrassed and followed him.
There were only two people in the room, Lin Zhixiu and Li Cheng.
Li Cheng said, "It doesn't hurt at all. In the northwest, there are times when it's heavier than this. It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable walking and I can't ride a horse. I want to go find you and talk to you...but it doesn't work."
Lin Zhixiu sat down and he stood beside her.
Li Cheng lowered his head in shame, "But even now, I haven't done anything about it. At that time, I thought, my father might as well just beat me to death!"
Lin Zhixiu: "You are talking nonsense again! The emperor will be even more angry when he hears this!"
Li Cheng looked bitter, "Axiu... this matter is my fault! Why am I so stupid! In fact, I had made up my mind since I came back from hunting last autumn, but why didn't I tell my father!"
I regret it so much!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "I told you that day. I'm afraid the Emperor has already made up his mind about this matter. You left home at a young age and made great achievements in the northwest. The Emperor has always been kind to you."
.But this time, I would rather attack you than listen to you! Do you understand? It’s not easy!”
Li Cheng said, "Axiu, you are the smartest! What do you think I should do?!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Actually, to tell you the truth, I am not keen on getting married. You don't know many things, and it is inconvenient for me to tell you. Rather than saying that I hope to have a good marriage, I would rather say
It's other aspects... All your wishes come true! Your identity determines that you cannot treat me the way my father treats my mother. Therefore, the way we are now may not..."
Li Cheng got angry, forgot about his butt injury, sat beside Lin Zhixiu and pulled her, only to jump up again as if his butt was on fire...
I was so anxious that my head was sweating, "Axiu! You still said that! You are still so calm! I'm angry!"
Lin Zhixiu was so angry: You are angry, and I am still angry! What kind of thing is this?
But look at him...it hurt so much that his neck was red. I didn't have the nerve to be harsh on him, so I had to calm down and say, "Why are you so excited?"
Li Cheng said, "I'm really angry! You don't even know! I really think that if this doesn't happen, I won't live!"
Lin Zhixiu didn't say anything and looked at him quietly.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Cheng felt very scared! He wished she would scold him and be mean to him...
"Axiu, you are so smart, help me think of a solution!"
Lin Zhixiu: "Now, there is really no good solution!"
Li Cheng suddenly remembered, "My second brother is back! Otherwise, let's go find him and discuss it."
Lin Zhixiu said, "Prince Jin is back?"
Li Cheng said, "I'm back! It was the day my father beat me."
Lin Zhixiu asked, "How are things going?"
Li Cheng said, "We didn't have time to talk, but I listened and found out that the Li family's affairs were clearly investigated. My father should have made Li Feng a marquis and returned the family property! He was also asked to take charge of city defense."
Lin Zhixiu: "You know, Brother Li saved the daughter of the Wu family in the summer palace, and later..." She briefly talked about the affairs of the Wu family, the Li family, and the Zhang family.
Li Cheng didn't care. He looked at Lin Zhixiu and was still angry, "You care about others, why don't you care about me? Care about our affairs?!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "That's because... you don't like to hear what I want to say... I have made it clear to you before. If we are together, we must follow my parents' example! Otherwise, we will
Take a step back and treat yourself as a lifelong good friend. I will care about you and take care of you..."
At least, you won't be as miserable as you were in your previous life.
Li Cheng walked around the room and shouted, "No! I won't do it! You didn't make it clear to me! Anyway, I will recognize you for the rest of my life! You can't always think like this..."
As he spoke, he suddenly rushed over, picked up Lin Zhixiu, held her in his arms, and kissed her hard on the mouth.
Lin Zhixiu didn't even react when she said "...", this mouthful hit her face.
She was so frightened that she pushed hard... like a conditioned reflex...
Didn't push away...
"Li Cheng, what are you going to do?!" She didn't dare to shout loudly, but she gritted her teeth.
Li Cheng hugged this soft and fragrant body, and a burst of tenderness filled his chest.
He hugged her intoxicatedly, "Axiu!"
Lin Zhixiu struggled desperately, but it was in vain. She had goosebumps all over her body, "You bastard, let me go!" Li Cheng was the person who had been thinking about and worrying about for so long.
There are so many nights of missing her...
Now that I'm finally in my arms, how can I let go?!
A numbness rushed straight to the back of his head, and his heart was pounding and about to jump out of his chest.
When my mind started to heat up, I thought, let’s do it... we might as well cook the rice first!
Save me the worry...
Afterwards, I admitted she killed me!
Thinking about it this way, the two people are so close that their summer shirts are so thin...
Lin Zhixiu felt it all at once... and was almost scared to death.
As she struggled, she burst into tears, "You bullied me! You insulted me! I came to see you with good intentions...but you did this to me...you bastard...wuwu..."
Not only did Li Cheng's face...his ears turn red! He also knew that he was strange, and was a little embarrassed to hear his beloved cry like this...
She panicked, "I...I am like this because I like you! I'm not humiliating you. Really! I can't help it...you know?! Xiu'er, so Xiu'er! Stop crying, can you hit me?"
!Don’t cry, I won’t move.”
This piece of shit! He just apologizes but refuses to let go!
What a bastard he is!
Lin Zhixiu was still crying, not much stronger, but still struggling.
Li Cheng relaxed a little...
Lin Zhixiu raised his leg and pushed him with his knee.
"Hiss..."
Li Cheng calmed down for a while, then looked at Lin Zhixiu carefully, and his face was filled with tears.
My hair is messed up...
His heart trembled, and he quickly let go of his hand. If he didn't let go, something would really happen...
Lin Zhixiu's clothes were all messed up, and she was extremely angry: I really humiliated myself!
I have never encountered anything like this in my entire life...
She was so ashamed and angry!
"Li Cheng, if you dare to do this to me again! I will kill you!"
Li Cheng's inner words: With your little strength... you hit me so hard, it doesn't even hurt... Tsk!
But he didn't dare to say it because he was afraid that Lin Zhixiu would really kill him!
Didn't send it out, closed it, changed it again...
Just one chapter today, don’t wait.
Send it out first and correct it tomorrow if there are any mistakes.
