The two daughters, Leng Qiu and Leng Qing, have always stayed in the palace and rarely leave the palace. They are not involved in the fight for the right to be the heir, and there is no intrigue in the palace, so they are pure in nature.
This is also related to King An's hypocrisy, maintaining his integrity and not telling them about the ghostly side of the human heart, not knowing how dangerous the human heart is and how difficult the world is.
The two women pushed open the door of the small courtyard and came in lightly. When they saw Chu Li practicing his sword, they smiled and said, "General Manager."
Chu Li smiled and said: "You still dare to come here, aren't you afraid that the prince will be angry?"
"Father is messing around, and we won't listen." Leng Qiu snorted.
Leng Qing said: "Mr. Chu, what is going on between you and your father?"
Chu Li shook his head helplessly and said: "You also know this,...come and sit down and talk."
He sat down at the stone table with his two daughters and sighed: "Actually, it was the ten masters from Heaven and Earth on the way to the wedding that greatly damaged the vitality of the prince's palace. The prince was also frightened, so he felt ashamed of it and planted a seed in his heart.
The knot cannot be untied no matter what."
"The ten masters from the outer world are indeed the fault of the chief manager, he is too cruel." Leng Qing said.
Chu Li said: "I was escorting the prince at that time, and they pretended to be assassins to assassinate the prince. In anger, I carried out a heavy attack, making people inside and outside no longer human... The prince understood that I had no ill intentions, but he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
It has ruined his decades of hard work, and I can understand the prince's anger."
"So that's it!" the two women said in surprise.
They only knew that Chu Li had killed ten masters of the Heaven and Earth in the mansion, and they had always thought that their father's anger was understandable. They did not know that the general manager actually killed those masters of the Heaven and Earth to protect his father.
In this way, it was the father's trick and his own fault, which is why he was so angry. When he saw the chief manager and thought of this useless thing, he would inevitably feel resentful and resentful.
They shook their heads and sighed: "General Manager, we really can't help you with this matter."
Chu Li said: "This is a matter between me and the prince. Don't get involved, and it's not advisable to come over again, lest you make the prince angry."
"Be angry when you are angry." Leng Qiu curled her tender lips.
"Let's practice swordsmanship." Leng Qing said: "Practice your swordsmanship well early. Leng Tao will not give up and will find trouble again. He must be practicing hard to avenge his shame and continue to overcome
He is the best!"
"Yes, sword practice!" Leng Qiu jumped up.
As soon as she heard Leng Tao's name, she became so energetic that she wished she could practice sword practice for twelve hours a day and beat Leng Tao to the ground again in the near future and beg for mercy on her knees.
Chu Li watched them practicing swordsmanship with a smile and gave some instructions.
Suddenly there was the sound of light footsteps outside, and a graceful woman wearing a white gauze was led outside the small courtyard by Song Sansi, the housekeeper.
"Du! Du!" Song Sansi knocked on the door.
"Come in." Chu Li said.
He saw the face of the woman under the white gauze. Her exquisite face was extremely beautiful, only inferior to Xiao Shi. Her beauty was superior to Leng Qiu, Leng Qing and others. She was truly a rare beauty.
Song Sansi pushed the door open and walked in, followed by a graceful woman, wearing a pink blouse with a willow waist and an elegant manner.
Song Sansi clasped her fists with a serious look on her face: "General Manager Chu, on the order of the prince, I have brought this girl Ru Menglan here. From today on, she will be General Manager Chu's maid, and the body deed also belongs to General Manager Chu. This is a personal contract."
He took out a piece of plain paper from his sleeve and handed it over.
Chu Li took it and glanced at it. It was a personal contract. With this contract, this graceful woman would be his own private property and would not belong to the palace.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for me." Chu Li clasped his fists, put the body contract back into his sleeves, and said with a smile, "Do you have any other instructions, Your Majesty?"
"No more." Song Sansi said hurriedly: "Just let me send Miss Menglan over."
"Okay, thank you, Manager Song." Chu Li nodded.
Song Sansi was a little stunned. All the things he had prepared were useless and could not be put to use.
Fortunately, I thought about it for a long time and spent the whole night thinking about it, before I mustered up the courage to come over and try to persuade Manager Chu to accept it.
Yesterday evening, the prince called him over and told him to persuade Mr. Chu to accept it no matter what, otherwise he would not go back to see the prince.
When he went to bed at night, he tossed and turned in bed for half the night, thinking hard, and then he came up with some words of advice. Unexpectedly, his hard work was in vain.
He glanced at Menglan, who was covered with white gauze. He felt disappointed and felt a deep sense of unwillingness. It was really not a good idea to give such a beautiful woman to others. How nice it would be for the prince to give it to him!
"Manager Song, is there anything else?" Chu Li said with a smile.
"Oh, oh, no, no." Song Sansi quickly shook his head, cupped his fists and said with a smile, "Then Song will take his leave."
"I won't send it off." Chu Li clasped his fists.
Song Sansi slowly stepped out of the small courtyard. Before leaving, she reluctantly turned to look at Meng Lan.
He sighed secretly, complaining that beauty has a bad fate. The more beautiful a woman is, the worse her fate will be. This is the case for Princess Xiao, and the same is true for Miss Menglan.
Caught between the prince and Chu Li, girl Menglan is useless no matter how smart she is, doomed to a tragic fate. Prince An uses her as a pawn to confuse Chu Li.
Chu Li must be very wary of her and won't treat her kindly. I don't know how much suffering she will suffer. Alas...
Thinking of this, he shook his head, turned around and left, his heart hardening.
In this world, kind people don't live long. If you want to live well, you have to harden your heart and don't care whether others live or die, even if she is a stunning beauty!
Leng Qiu and Leng Qing returned their swords to their sheaths and looked at Meng Lan curiously.
Meng Lan's bright eyes were like clear springs, her eyes drooped slightly, revealing a shy look.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Menglan, take off your veil."
"Yes, sir." Meng Lan responded obediently, raised her slender hands, and elegantly took off her veil, revealing a beautiful face that was both happy and angry.
Leng Qiu praised: "What a great beauty!"
Leng Qing looked at her carefully and had to say that she was beautiful. Her facial features were exquisite, her skin was white, and her eyes were clear. I am afraid that no man would not like her.
She turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li said with a smile: "Menglan, are you from Qingyun Tower?"
"Yes." Menglan nodded gently, touchingly.
Leng Qiu and Leng Qing frowned slightly, Qingyun Tower!
They knew that Qingyun House was the number one brothel in the capital city, with Prince Bao as the backstage. Although the girls in the building were performing arts but not selling themselves, after all, they were in public and could be seen by thousands of people, so their character naturally became smooth and worldly.
It is not appropriate to keep such a woman around, as it can easily lead to trouble.
Chu Li said: "The prince is also interested. From now on, you should do your job well and stay in peace."
"Yes, young master." Meng Lan bowed.
"Yang Xu." He raised his voice.
Yang Xu responded from the Tianshu Courtyard next to him and curled in.
"Take care of Meng Lan." Chu Li said, "She is new here. You can take care of her and teach her the rules."
"Yes, manager." Yang Xu responded with a smile.
She retreated with Menglan.
Chu Li smiled at the two frowning girls and said, "Miss Menglan hasn't started training yet. The prince must have spent a lot of favors and money on her."
"Father, he..." They were all confused.
Looking at the arrogance of sending the maid off, it seems that my father hates the chief steward. (To be continued.)
