Qin Tao did not accept the gift, but just glanced at it lightly, and then said: "I have always been honest. Are you giving these to me to trap me in injustice?"
"What did you say, sir? We are sincerely filial to you. It is natural for the younger generation to give things to the elders. How can anyone gossip?" The speaker was Wang Ruoxuan. Even though he didn't speak often, he was worthy of being Wang Shuhui's son. He was very eloquent.
extraordinary.
Qin Tao didn't say anything for a while, he just took the brocade box containing the gift, opened it calmly and took a look inside. Just this look, his expression changed several times, and his eyes lit up. The gift was Wang Ruoxuan
The preparation was of course very good, and it also catered to his liking. It would be strange if Qin Tao didn't like it. It seems that Qin Tao didn't refuse to accept the gift, but just wanted to see if the gift was worth it.
"I wonder if your Excellency is satisfied?" Peipei remained calm on the surface, but her heart felt cold. She knew that Mo Jinran never wanted to see Qin Tao like this!
"Satisfied, satisfied!" Qin Tao closed the brocade box with a smile on his face, completely different from the original one. "If these young masters want to do business in Leyan, then they will go find my younger brother Qin
Come on, I'll send someone to take you over."
"Thank you, sir!" The four of them excused themselves and followed the boy out. It seems that Qin Tao is very cautious in doing things and does not interfere in matters outside the officialdom. Perhaps this is how he can be protected from others.
Get a grip, right?
The private person followed the servant through the mansion, exited from the side door, and passed through a narrow alley to another mansion. Presumably, this mansion is Qin Bo's mansion, right? After entering the gate, Peipei couldn't help but change her expression.
The scenery can be said to be very exquisite. It is not as good as the palace, but it is much more luxurious than the official residence. From this, I think that although the decoration of Qin Tao's residence just now is low-key, the things are also of good quality. This is just for outsiders to see.
, I don’t know what the state of the room I live in is like.
After meeting Qin Bo, Peipei realized that this Qin Tao was Master Qin who was at the brothel yesterday. He turned out to be the younger brother of the prefect. This time, Peipei and Qingmei didn't say much. Qin Bo and Wang Ruoxuan were talking.
Although there is a reason for coming here to do business, you have to explain it appropriately, otherwise it will make people suspicious. Fortunately, Wang Ruoxuan is no stranger to this. He did not live in the Wang family mansion before, but Wang Shuhui also trained him in business.
Wang Shuhui recorded everything he learned one by one, bound it into a book and sent it to Wang Ruoxuan, so that he could learn from it.
After talking for a long time, Wang Ruoxuan vaguely revealed that he wanted to do some illegal business. At first, Qin Bo pretended to refuse, but later he started to conspire. After everything was settled, they returned to the inn. Peipei looked gloomy and was in a very bad mood.
It's not good.
"Pepei..." Qingmei wanted to persuade, but she didn't know how to speak.
"Brother Mei, I'm fine!" Peipei smiled at Qingmei. Corrupt officials have existed throughout the ages, and this is inevitable. Although she felt uncomfortable, she knew she couldn't let it ruin her mood. She turned to look at Wang Ruoxuan,
Rouju said: "Thanks to brother Ruoxuan this time, otherwise we wouldn't have discovered so much so quickly."
"Pei Pei, I'm glad that I can share your worries!" Wang Ruoxuan said plainly, not thinking that he had much merit.
"Thank you..." Peipei's heart trembled. Wang Ruoxuan was looking at her too intently at the moment, which reminded her of what Wang Ruoxuan said to her when he first entered the palace, and her face turned red unconsciously.
Seeing all the charm between them, I feel a little bitter in my heart. It seems that my mother's words will come true. If I don't pay close attention, my position in Peipei's heart will be replaced.
After that, Wang Ruoxuan became busy, and Peipei entrusted him with all the contacts with Qin Bo. Wang Ruoxuan took it seriously and vowed to do well what Peipei entrusted to him, and he also understood that there was no one around Peipei.
He will want a useless husband. He strives to do everything well and is also working towards his dream.
Peipei and Qingmei saw that Wang Ruoxuan was so busy that they couldn't touch the ground. They were too embarrassed to go out and play, so they just stayed in the inn. Peipei was bored and resented Mo Jinran in her heart. "It's the mother queen, this kind of thing
If you don't leave it to the ministers to investigate, but let me do it, isn't it troublesome for brother Ruoxuan? If it weren't for brother Ruoxuan, we might not be able to capture enough evidence even if we stay here for a year and a half."
"Pei Pei, Queen Mother, this is for your own good!" Qing Meiji could understand Mo Jinran's painstaking efforts.
"I know, but if my brother had been born earlier, the Queen Mother would not have placed all her hopes on me. Alas!" Pepe is also very stressed, okay?
"Pei Pei, don't be too burdened. I will try my best to share the burden for you in the future!" Qingmei said firmly. He had been quite envious watching Wang Ruoxuan running up and down for Mo Jinran in recent days, but he was very serious about this matter.
If he doesn't understand, it's not good to cause trouble. When he goes back, he will work hard and strive to take over the leadership role as soon as possible.
"Thank you, Brother Mei!" Peipei was extremely happy when she heard this.
"Pepei..." Qingmei suddenly stopped talking.
"Brother Mei, do you have something to say?"
Qingmei glanced at Luo Xue'er, who had been standing behind them. Luo Xue'er understood and walked out of the room with a smile. She looked at Qingmei teasingly and closed the door before leaving. Qingmei looked slightly embarrassed.
At this moment, they were the only two people left in the room. Pepe seemed to realize that she was a little embarrassed and her cheeks turned red.
"Pepe, I have something to ask you, and I hope you can answer it truthfully!"
"Yes!" Peipei lowered her head and responded obediently. She had always been well-behaved in front of Qingmei, just like a little daughter-in-law.
"Actually, I know you are still young, but the Queen Mother has high hopes for you, so she asked us to get engaged as soon as possible. I can see that you don't want to, but is it because you don't like me?"
Hearing this, Peipei was startled and raised her head to look at Qingmei blankly. She liked him so much and everyone knew it, so why did he still ask?
Seeing her like this, Qingmei sighed. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have forced you. If you don't like it, I won't make it difficult for you! I...went back to the mother...the emperor and asked her to cancel this door."
marriage!"
Qingmei's depressed look made people feel distressed. Peipei suddenly understood his feelings and asked instead of answering his question: "Brother Mei likes Wu Sitong?"
"Why do you ask that?" Qingmei was surprised. Could it be that he had misunderstood Pepe?
"I always thought you liked Wu Sitong. She is quiet, beautiful, and a lady. My mother has told me to be that kind of person since I was a child, but I am not a lady enough! I have always liked Brother Mei, ever since I was a child, and it has never changed. Even if
There are other people appearing, and they are different from Brother Mei!" Peipei's words at this time were undoubtedly a confession. Her face turned red, but Qingmei was extremely surprised.
"I have never liked Sitong, I only regard her as a close friend. I admire her talent, but I don't feel admiration for her!"
The two of them finally opened the window paper today and spoke out what was in their hearts. In fact, Qingmei wanted to ask Peipei if she liked Wang Ruoxuan. But he knew that this was what he should ask. Mo Jinran was not the queen when she was young, and there were still four
Husband. Pepe was born as a princess, and it was impossible for him to have only one husband for the rest of his life. He would not ask for anything extravagant, he just wanted to be a special existence in Pepe's heart. After Mo Jinran said a word today, he would not think about it anymore.
The two children looked at each other silently in the room, the silence was better than the sound at this time, their eyes were full of sweetness!
Although this trip to Leyan went smoothly, they returned two days later than expected. Wang Ruoxuan collected a lot of evidence, including Qin Bo's and Qin Tao's. This time, the two brothers should have been unable to argue. When they returned to the palace,
, Pepe presented these evidences to Mo Jinran.
Mo Jinran was furious. This Qin Tao really failed her. As you can imagine, the result was that Qin Tao and Qin Bo were beheaded in public. Mo Jinran was kind and did not harm his family. He confiscated his family's property and confiscated them.
All were exiled.
Undoubtedly, Mo Jinran was satisfied with Peipei this time. But he was even more satisfied with Wang Ruoxuan. It seemed that this man had the potential to be his son-in-law. So he was not stingy and gave Wang Ruoxuan awards and rewards.
From then on, the three of them met in the palace day and night, went to school together, and practiced martial arts together. At the same time, Peipei could not escape Cheng Shuo's training. This man really did not give Peipei face, and the homework was very heavy, but it also made Peipei
Peipei is progressing very quickly. Peipei often finds opportunities to tease him, and he retaliates without a trace. Such exciting days pass quickly and are very fulfilling.
In the blink of an eye, it’s been two years again...
"Happy birthday to the eldest princess!" Today is Peipei's sixteenth birthday. Although there is no big event, many close officials came to congratulate her. Among them must be Shubing's family, Wang Shuhui's family, and her four husbands.
, Mo Jinran et al.
Now, Mo Jinran has given birth to another son, and he has another son in his belly for more than five months, but he doesn't know the gender.
In the past ten years, she had asked for nothing but Peipei. Who would have thought that now that she is older and doesn't want to have a baby, she always gets pregnant? She was a little helpless and thought about how to prevent pregnancy. But she
How could her careful tricks escape the eyes of Leng Qing? After locking her in a room and giving her a scolding, she had no choice but to give up. Fortunately, Peipei was already helping to deal with the affairs of the court, otherwise she would really not be able to raise her baby with peace of mind.
Everyone presented gifts to Peipei, and Peipei was also very happy. The jade hairpin she wore on her head was a jade hairpin given by Qingmei. It is said that Qingmei worked tirelessly and spent several nights to carve it herself. On her wrist was Wang Ruoxuan.
Although the gold bracelet given was not very expensive, it was Wang Ruoxuan's mother's dowry back then. In other words, Wang Ruoxuan regarded her as his daughter-in-law in his heart.
In the past two years, a lot of things happened, which made her understand Wang Ruoxuan's thoughts, and the two of them were in love with each other. She asked Qingmei for her opinion, but he had no objection because Wang Ruoxuan really liked Peipei.
, he agreed. And he was quite pleased that Peipei could ask him. Now he and Wang Ruoxuan get along well. Mo Jinran often assigns the two of them to do things, and the two have a tacit understanding.
Mo Jinran sees all this and thinks about it in her heart. The only ones that give her a headache are Cheng Shuo and Peipei...
Thank you Xuanmo for your vote, okay, okay, okay... you already have two husbands, can you guys guess how many husbands Peipei will have?
