Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 249 The Goodness of Meng De (The Beginning of Nature)

Xiao Yuehou was a little embarrassed for a moment when his worries were exposed, but he quickly recovered.

"Marquis Xiangwu, I admit that I do have thoughts in this regard, but what I just said is not a lie. You should really think about it."

"If I guess correctly, His Highness the Third Prince will probably find you soon." Xiao Yuehou said.

"Haha, why won't His Highness come to me at this time? Even if he wants to see me, it must be after this storm has passed." Ling Buhuo said

"Huh? Are you sure you want to see a doctor? Why?" Xiao Yuehou asked

"If Xiao Yuehou doesn't believe it, we can make a bet. If the Third Highness sees me within ten days, even if I lose, I can agree to your request, and vice versa." Ling Buhuo said.

"Okay, I'll make a bet with you. I don't believe you can win. I'll go find His Highness the Third Prince when I get back. Just wait obediently for me to make the conditions." After Xiao Yuehou finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Ling Buhuo looked at Xiao Yuehou's leaving figure, and a trace of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth, which quickly disappeared.

Xiao Yuehou, who was full of confidence, came directly to the third prince's house, and then asked directly about when to summon Ling Buhuo.

"Uncle, I can't see him now. Let's wait until after this period of time." The third prince said

"What? Why? Why can't you see him, Your Highness?" Xiao Yuehou asked anxiously

"Huh? Uncle, why do you care so much about when I see him? Is there something you haven't told me?" The third prince was so smart that he immediately sensed something unusual.

"Well, it's not really a big deal. We just made a bet. He said you wouldn't summon him within ten days. I don't believe it, so?" Xiao Yuehou said hesitantly.

"What? Uncle, did he really make a bet with you like this?" The third prince's expression changed greatly after hearing this.

"Yes, that's what he told me. What's wrong, Your Highness? Is there something wrong here?" Xiao Yuehou asked in confusion.

"Of course it's wrong, and there's a big problem. I'm just wondering why the mother-in-law is speaking so strangely today. It turns out that's the case." The third prince said solemnly.

"Your Highness, are you telling me what's going on? Don't let me worry." Xiao Yuehou couldn't stand such riddles, so he naturally asked quickly.

"Uncle, don't you find it strange? Why did my father suddenly do this? There are many ways to beat the prince. Why did my father choose to use me to stimulate the prince?" said the third prince.

"What? Your Highness, do you mean that His Majesty is testing you?" Xiao Yuehou asked in surprise.

"It's not a test, it's a beating. My father seemed to be beating the prince this time, but in fact he was beating me too. You all thought that my father had ulterior motives."

"But the reality is exactly the opposite. My father is beating me to make me calm down. This time I owe a lot of favors. Uncle, please help me thank him when you go next time." The third prince said with some frustration.

"What? Your Highness, you mean that that boy Ling Buhuo knew it a long time ago, and he deliberately used my mouth to tell you?" Xiao Yuehou said directly

"That's right, uncle, that's it. He didn't want to offend me, and he also wanted to leave a way out for himself, so he didn't do it all, for fear that I would be confused for a moment, hey." The third prince sighed.

"What? Is this really the case? Well, didn't I get this favor for nothing? Ling Buhuo, can't you make things more clear? Isn't this a trick on me?" Xiao Yuehou said

"Thank you for your hard work this time, uncle. Don't worry, I won't forget you." The third prince suddenly said

"Oh, I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it. Your Highness, as long as you are safe, I can do anything. Your Highness, I will go back and take care of the matter." Xiao Yuehou hurriedly saluted.

After Xiao Yuehou came out of the prince's mansion, he was in a very good mood. After all, although he was tricked by Ling Buhuo this time, it was a blessing in disguise. The third prince remembered his good deeds and he still made money.

When Ling Buhuo learned that Xiao Yuehou was here again, he showed a bright smile, and then he kept this smile and went to greet Xiao Yuehou.

When Xiao Yuehou saw the smile on Ling Buhuo's face, his original good mood suddenly disappeared. After all, no one would feel comfortable if they were plotted against.

Especially when the person who plots against you is gloating about your misfortune, let alone how uncomfortable it is.

"Marquis Xiangwu, you are really powerful. I really underestimated you. It seems that I have to be more careful when dealing with you in the future." Xiao Yuehou said angrily.

"Hey, Xiao Yuehou, what are you talking about? Aren't we good friends? Why are you so careful about me? Where do you start talking about this?" Ling Buyu asked.

"Okay, you won this time. I came here for nothing else. Your Highness asked me to express my gratitude to you. Okay, I owe you a favor, so I'll leave first." After Xiao Yuehou finished speaking, he turned around and left.

He didn't want to stay in this miserable place for a moment. As soon as he saw Ling Buhuo's face, he remembered that he had been plotted against him, and he couldn't be happy at all.

But Ling Buhuo didn't care about this. In short, he made a lot of money this time. He not only won the bet with Xiao Yuehou, but also made the Third Highness owe a favor. It was a double happiness.

But unlike his happiness, Lou Ben's life at this time was quite uncomfortable. Ever since Taifu Lou came back from the East Palace, his hard days have come.

He encountered all kinds of troubles every day, which made him exhausted. Seeing her husband's tired look, Wang Yanji felt distressed in her heart.

That night, after the couple returned to the room, they began to discuss.

"Husband, my uncle has made things difficult for you today, hasn't he?" Wang Yanji said distressedly

"It doesn't matter, ma'am, as long as we survive this period, our good days are coming. Just bear with it, bear with it," Lou Ben said.

"Husband, don't blame me for talking too much. Although I don't know what you said to Marquis Xiangwu, do you really believe him? After all, his reputation is not very good?" Wang Yanji said

"Well, ma'am, I'm actually a little worried, but the situation at that time was that he had calculated me into his whole plan, and I was helpless."

"If I don't go to him now, I can still delay the matter. My uncle doesn't dare to push too hard. But if I go to him and it doesn't work? Then it's all over." Lou Ben was helpless. the way

"Husband, just procrastinating like this is not an option. As time goes by, uncle will still be suspicious. Will he still want the same thing then?" Wang Yanji said

"Madam, the matter is now at a standstill. It's really difficult to handle." Lou Ben said

"Husband, how about I go and ask tomorrow? I'm a prostitute. Even if the final result is really not good, there is still room for it."

"The key is that uncle will not think of me going to Tingwei Mansion. By the time he finds out, I should have already met Marquis Xiangwu." Wang Yanji said

"Well, this method works, but what will you say after meeting Marquis Xiangwu? I'm afraid that he won't see you at all, what will happen to your face, madam?" Lou Ben said

"Oh husband, how long has this been? How can you still care about this? Besides, it's better for me to lose face than for you, husband, to lose face, right?" Wang Yanji said

"Well, okay, then let's do it. But woman, if you can't do it, don't force it. I've been waiting for so many years. I can't wait for a few more years." Lou Ben said.

"Well, I know husband. I know what I know. Don't worry. Well, husband, don't think about it anymore. I have to go to Tingwei's Mansion tomorrow?" Wang Yanji said

After hearing this, Lou Ben finally stopped talking. Today, Lou Ben was rarely interested, but the final result was always unsatisfactory. Fortunately, Wang Yanji didn't know what others were like, so she thought this was normal, and the next day soon came.

Lou Ben was still the same as before. He was called by Mrs. Lou to lecture him, but Wang Yanji quietly left the house with some excuse. She didn't even move a carriage for fear of leaking the news.

At this time, Wang Yanji was wearing a bamboo hat and a veil on her face, and was walking to Tingwei's Mansion alone. Ling Buhuo, who was handling the case in the public room, suddenly saw Lu Cheng hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong? What happened? Tell me?" Ling Buhuo asked

"Master, Lou Ben's wife is here. I happened to see her coming to Tingwei's Mansion just now. I stopped her halfway because I was afraid that she would talk nonsense. She casually and quietly brought her into Tingwei's Mansion. Do you want to see her?" After hearing this, Lu Cheng bowed directly and said

"Can't you finally bear it? Since everyone is here, let's bring them here." Ling Buhuo said

After hearing this, Lu Cheng turned around and left. Not long after, Wang Yanji entered the public room. Ling Buhuo winked at Lu Cheng. Lu Cheng understood, went straight out of the public room, and guarded the door.

"Mrs. Lou, why are you here so mysteriously?" Ling Buhuo asked.

"Marquis Xiangwu, actually, the little lady came here today to inquire about the progress of my husband's matter," Wang Yanji said.

"Huh? What's going on with your husband? What's going on? Why don't I know?" Ling Buhuo asked

When Wang Yanji heard this, her heart suddenly sank. She knew that her husband's worries had come true. Ling Buhuo was really just using her husband, and he had no intention of helping.

"Marquis Xiangwu, you are very busy, I would like to remind you that the last time you met my husband, you agreed to become an official. Do you still remember?" Wang Yanji said

"Oh, you said this, yes, I agreed, but I don't plan to do it. After all, Lou Ben is no longer useful to me, so why should I bother with him?" Ling Buhuo said.

"You, Marquis Xiangwu, how could you go back on your word, you. You!" Wang Yanji became very angry after hearing Ling Buhuo's confident words.

"Haha, what? Did Mrs. Lou know about me on the first day? When did I, Ling Zichen, do a loss-making business? Now Lou Ben is a loss-making business, do you understand?" Ling Buhuo said

"Marquis Xiangwu, what happened last time caused a storm in the city. If you really can't fulfill your promise, don't blame us for being ruthless." Wang Yanji said angrily.

"Hey, are you threatening me? Madam Lou, why don't you ask me, what kind of reputation do I, Ling Zichen, have outside? Do I care about this?" Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"You, how can you help?" Wang Yanji said helplessly.

After hearing this, Ling Buhuo stood up directly, then walked slowly to Wang Yanji, then leaned into Wang Yanji's ear and said, "My conditions are very simple, I want you."

"You, what are you talking about? You, you." Wang Yanji was immediately startled.

"Why am I talking nonsense? Isn't that what you mean when you come to me alone today? Why are you pretending? It will be of course good for you to accompany me obediently." After Ling Buhuo finished speaking, he hugged Wang Yanji directly in his arms.

Wang Yanji was frightened at first. When she came to her senses, she started struggling. At the same time, she said, "Let me go, let me go. If you do this again, I will call you!"

"You shout, who is the embarrassment when I see it? Madam Lou, I advise you to obey me. After all, you don't want your husband's dream of becoming an official to be shattered like this, right?" Ling Buhuo leaned into Wang Yanji's ear Said softly

After Wang Yanji heard this, she struggled a lot but Ling Buhuo naturally took the opportunity to do it even more excessively, just when he was about to succeed.

Wang Yanji suddenly came to her senses and said, "You, you, why should I believe you? You have already lied to us once before. You are a liar!"

"Mrs. Lou, you should know that my wife is pregnant now. If you tell her, you will be unlucky, but I will not be much better. I will not take risks with my child."

"Don't worry, I will arrange for your husband to work in the Tingwei Mansion when the time comes. You just have to come and see your husband for a while. When my wife gives birth to the child, it will be natural between you and me?" Ling Buhuo said

After Wang Yanji heard this, she gave up her struggle completely. Ling Buhuo naturally would not miss this good opportunity. Soon, Lu Cheng, who was guarding the door outside the room, heard some strange sounds.

At this time, Lu Cheng looked very strange and said to himself, "I said that the mistress tried to persuade the young master to take concubines, but he was not moved. It turns out that the young master likes this."

Lu Cheng's face quickly became extremely serious, and he looked like he would not let strangers in. He was so far away that people didn't dare to approach him for fear of getting into trouble.

Half an hour later, Ling Buhuo came out of the public room with a happy face and stretched himself for a long time.

"Lu Cheng, go get a bucket of hot water. I want to take a bath and I'm all sweaty." Ling Buhuo said.

Lu Cheng didn't say anything after hearing this. He just asked someone to put a big wooden barrel in front of the public room, and then he moved in. As soon as he came in, he smelled the smell.

Lu Cheng also added the hot water little by little. When everything was ready, he returned to his seat.

At this time, Ling Buhuo took out the weak Wang Yanji from inside and put her in the bathtub. Wang Yanji couldn't do it by herself, so Ling Buhuo's help was naturally indispensable.

After another half an hour, Wang Yanji finally appeared in front of Ling Buhuo, fully dressed.

"I'm a little worried about you going back like this. How about I ask Lu Cheng to see you off?" Ling Buhuo said.

"No, no need, I can go back by myself, as long as he takes me out of Tingwei's mansion, remember what you promised me." After Wang Yanji finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Ling Buhuo looked at that graceful back, thinking of what he had just done, he became interested again. Ling Buhuo smiled and shook his head. The days were long, and he couldn't run away anyway.
