Over there in the town, Mingzhu found Qi Zhen again.
"Does His Highness the Second Highness love beauty more than the country?" Mingzhu asked angrily.
Qi Zhen had a very bad impression of her. His face sank and he said, "It's none of your business?"
I learned this saying from Bai Banxia, but given his past status, he would definitely not talk about "farts".
So Mingzhu was surprised and asked: "Your Highness, you haven't recovered your memory yet, right? If you recover your memory, you will definitely not stop cooperating with me."
Qi Zhen sneered, "You are quite ambitious. With your plan, you should know that it would be more convenient to find the Seventh Prince."
Mingzhu's smile was still very graceful and generous, as if she was already the one whose mother honored the world.
"How does the Seventh Prince compare with you? You are the only prince who has received the Dragon Card given by the late Emperor."
"So what? I advise you not to bother me again, otherwise..." Qi Zhen said in a long voice, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away, so it's not a big deal to kill the granddaughter of a pavilion elder."
Mingzhu's expression finally lost her grip, "Are you threatening me? I'm worried about you. I don't understand why you are so hostile to me?"
"If you don't agree, you won't agree. Besides, I hate people like you." Qi Zhen said unceremoniously.
"I have already sent a message to my confidants. If anything happens to me, your message will be sent to the court." Mingzhu couldn't pretend any longer and simply broke out.
Qi Zhen sneered, "Is this the kind of letter you believe?"
He took out a small bamboo tube from his arms and shook it in front of Mingzhu. Mingzhu could no longer calm down, "You, how can you..."
Qi Zhen didn't reply to her, he just asked someone to inquire. He knew that he had lost his memory, but even if he had lost his memory, he didn't take any precautions?
"I don't like to say my words a second time. If you're not afraid of death, you can continue to dangle them in front of me."
There was murderous intent in Qi Zhen's voice, and Mingzhu shuddered subconsciously. She had no doubt that Qi Zhen's threat was just to scare people. This murderous intent seemed to kill her at any time.
She only had one coachman with her. Although he was also a guard carefully trained by the Ming family, who was Qi Zhen's opponent?
The driver's nervous forehead was sweating, and he protected the pearl and said, "Miss, shall we go?"
Mingzhu's palms were sweaty, but she didn't want to admit defeat. She turned around and left pretending to be calm, keeping her back straight, as if this could prove that she was not running away, but a person who had not lost.
After Mingzhu left, Chengfeng, who was hiding in the dark, came out.
"Master, I'm afraid she is going to join the Seventh Prince. Master would rather offend the Ming family than make the mistress displeased." Chengfeng said sourly.
"There's so much nonsense, how was Du Kangcheng's investigation?" Qi Zhen asked.
Chengfeng looked surprised, "Master, you only ordered to inspect Luomei Pavilion, but you didn't order to inspect Du Kangcheng!"
Qi Zhen raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Do you still need my instructions on this little thing? You have learned in vain these years?"
"Hehe, no." Chengfeng showed a treacherous expression, "Du Kangcheng has already found out about Luomei Pavilion and the Seventh Prince, but he didn't rush to send a message to the court. It seems that he has some thoughts."
It is definitely impossible for Du Kangcheng to defect to the seventh prince. Even if a proton comes back, even if he gets involved with the Jianghu sect, it may not be possible. Unless Du Kangcheng is stupid and risks the lives of the Du family to defect to the seventh prince.
The reason why he didn't send a message to the court was mostly because he was not quite the current emperor. In addition, he made mistakes while running errands and might not be able to escape punishment. Now he is still looking for a way out.
"That's all?" Qi Zhen looked dissatisfied.
"Du Kangcheng has found traces of Mingzhu, but currently he thinks Mingzhu is looking for Bai Banxia, and wonders if someone from the Ming family is seriously ill." Chengfeng added.
"Where is Jingzhong?" Qi Zhen asked again.
"We are preparing to offer sacrifices to heaven and recruit a large harem." Chengfeng said disdainfully.
Qi Zhen thought for a moment and said, "Let the people in Beijing come up with some visions."
Chengfeng understood his intention in an instant. The new emperor now cares about his reputation and is about to sacrifice to heaven. If there is any strange phenomenon, he will naturally be on guard and have no time to keep an eye on the northwest generation.
"yes."
Over in Baoshan Village, Bai Banxia actually saw Brother Erlang coming to help build a house. He was also carrying books and food boxes. He looked like he had just returned from school in Nanling Village.
"Brother Erlang, you are going to take the exam next month. There is no need for you to be distracted here." Bai Banxia stopped him and said.
"It's not too late. Just let me relax for a while. My head hurts from reading." Bai Shengming said with a smile.
He put down his books and food boxes, rolled up his sleeves and joined the helping team. Everyone greeted him with a smile, and he responded enthusiastically without any airs.
"Erlang Bai Jiaerlang doesn't have the airs of a scholar at all, he really does!" someone praised.
"No, the scholars in my second aunt's village wear straight skirts every day and shake their heads with books. They are not willing to do farm work at all." Someone else said.
Bai Shengming said with a smile: "I have delayed a lot of things while studying, and I will feel really bad if I don't come to help again."
Everyone smiled and said it was okay, and said some words of encouragement, hoping that he would be admitted to the scholar examination soon.
When the sky gets dark, it's time for the workers to call it a day. Judging from this progress, it will be completed in two days.
After Bai Shengming got home, he washed his hands and feet and then went back to study. He didn't even go out to eat dinner, so he used the meal time to work.
"Your son, Erlang, is a good young man, good at studying and diligent." Chen Dahai praised, "I think he is quite old, but have you said we are married?"
Mr. Bai said with a smile: "Not yet, this kid said he would wait until he takes the merit examination."
"That's fine, I'll help keep an eye on it and tell you if there's something appropriate." Chen Dahai said.
Bai Banxia listened with open ears. Chen Dahai probably felt that he was showing Chen Liangxiang recently and knew more good girls, so he enthusiastically recommended one or two to Bai Shengming.
But for whom Erlang is studying so hard, we can’t add any more details.
She hurriedly winked at her aunt, who understood and said, "My natal family has talked about one, and I think it's good, but if I don't talk about it before it's settled, it wouldn't be good for that girl's family."
She smiled at Chen Dahai, "We appreciate Uncle Chen's kindness, but we are afraid that it will spread out and the other party will misunderstand us and think that we are trying to find a horse by riding a donkey, which would not be good."
When Chen Dahai heard that his mother-in-law was choosing a candidate, he definitely couldn't get involved, so he hurriedly said: "It turns out we are seeing each other, so I won't have anything to do."
"How can you say it's so troublesome? You really care about the child Erlang." Mr. Bai said.
After dinner, the old lady went to talk to her uncle and asked about the girl she was seeing.
Li couldn't say it was He Yunlan, so she could only speak vaguely. Now the old lady was not happy.
"The family is really separated. They look down on me as an old woman. My grandson won't even let me see him when he wants a wife!" the old lady shouted angrily.
