Farmer's happy event

Chapter 402 The Incident

Chapter 402 The Incident
The middle-aged man who invited Su Keyan to drink with him just now was chased by another person just a few steps away.

"Master Zhao, what are you going to do in such a hurry?"

"I just invited Mr. Su to drink together. Why don't you hurry back and do something." He said this, looked at the man and asked, "How about Mr. Lin go together?"

The man called Mr. Lin waved his hand and said, "I won't go, lest I be gossiped about."

Mr. Zhao was a little embarrassed when he heard the words. Su Keyan is now in full swing.

He chuckled, and heard Master Lin continue: "With such a good father-in-law, it's hard not to be successful."

Lord Zhao smiled again, and said: "It's just Mrs. Su's adoptive father. The key is that Lord Su has something in his head that can help His Majesty solve problems."

He has a straightforward temper and never wants to take these disputes to heart.

Master Lin didn't say any more, and said a few more polite words to him, and then left.

At the time of the imperial examination, Su Keyan's performance was a blockbuster. However, he was only ranked second-class, which puzzled the ministers.Later, it was only given the title of Jinshi, and conferred the title of Shujishi of the Imperial Academy, which disappointed those who wanted to make friends.

Afterwards, the emperor seemed to have forgotten about him, neither asked nor paid attention to him.It wasn't until the plague of insects in the greenhouse in the capital that it seemed that the emperor thought of Su Keyan and entrusted him with this matter.This is also a normal thing, but the strange thing is that he was suddenly promoted by leapfrogging.

It stands to reason that if rewards are based on merit, it would be good to be promoted by one rank at most, but it is really puzzling that he was promoted to three ranks.

Thinking of this, Master Zhao shook his head.

"Alas—" he sighed.

Who can really understand the emperor's thoughts?If you don’t understand, then you don’t need to think too much about it, just take your own responsibilities well.

Su Keyan left the imperial city, got into his carriage directly, and walked back.

The court meeting will take longer today, and Lianzi is at home, so she must be waiting impatiently, right?
He was thinking about this, and he was also making plans in his heart. He should not tell Lianzi about his being promoted to three levels in a row.Although it seemed to be a very good thing, he was used to being cautious, and he always felt that there was something unusual about it.

Thinking about these things in my heart, unconsciously, the carriage got farther and farther away from the imperial city.

Because all the colleagues congratulated each other today, it was delayed for a long time. At this time, the people who returned from the court had almost left.

Su Keyan sat in the carriage and didn't pay attention to the situation outside, but suddenly, he felt a violent shaking, and then, the horse was pulled strongly, its front hooves raised, and it neighed.

"Little brat, how do you walk?" The coachman couldn't help but get angry, pointing at the troublemaker and cursing.

It was a little boy about five or six years old, wearing patched clothes and holding something in his hand.Just rushed over in such a straight way, fortunately he still has a few skills in driving the carriage, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"What happened?" Su Keyan asked after the carriage stopped.

"It's a child. I didn't pay attention to the aisle and almost ran into it." The driver said.

It turned out to be like this, nothing happened.

Su Keyan was about to tell him to be more careful, but suddenly heard a child's voice outside.

"This is a letter to Mr. Su."

Su Keyan was startled, believe it?Who sent the letter?

Confused in his heart, Su Keyan opened the curtain of the car, and saw a five or six-year-old boy standing opposite him, holding an envelope in his hand and holding it up to him.

This child still had a look of shock on his face, but he had never seen this child before, nor did he know him.

"Bring it here." Su Keyan told the driver.

The driver jumped out of the carriage, took the letter from the child, and handed it to Su Keyan.

"Who told you to send it?" Su Keyan asked, opening the letter in his hand.

But in just an instant, the little boy disappeared without a trace.

"Drive—" the coachman shouted loudly, and the horse hoofed and started to run again.

Su Keyan closed the letter in his hand, and the doubts in his heart deepened.

There is not a lot of content on this white paper, only one sentence, or not a single sentence.

"Gather in Hongsheng Building, Plum Blossom Pavilion."

Just these few words, nothing else.

Su Keyan was surprised, whose letter was it?Also sent in this way.I can't tell by looking at the handwriting.

Could it be that Mr. Zhao finished his work?Su Keyan thought.

I just said that I invited him to drink, but I have to go home to do some errands first.Did it change temporarily?
The first thing Su Keyan thought of was him.

I wanted to ignore it at first, but I was afraid that it was indeed him. If I didn't go, it would be bad.

"Go to Hongsheng Building." Su Keyan said to the driver.

This place is very close to Hongsheng Building, so I stopped by to have a look, if there is nothing urgent, he will go home immediately.Lianzi was alone at home, and he was always thinking about her.

The coachman agreed loudly, changed direction at the intersection ahead, and headed for Hongsheng Building.

At the same time, a woman in a big black hood let out a long sigh of relief, turned around, and left.

It was not yet noon at this time, and there were not many horses and horses in front of Hongsheng Building.

Su Keyan's carriage stopped in front of Hongsheng Building, and a sharp-eyed child rushed up to serve him.

"Master, please come inside."

Su Keyan smiled, gave him a piece of silver, and went inside.

The letter said it was the Plum Blossom Pavilion, so Su Keyan went directly to the second floor to the Plum Blossom Pavilion.

At this time, Lianzi was sitting in the car, talking with the girl sent by Mrs. Li.

"Your wife is just too polite, why is this necessary?" Lianzi said.

The girl smiled and said, "My wife always said, 'If you receive the favor of a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring'. What's more, the lady has helped you so much?"

Lianzi smiled and stopped talking.

The carriage was not going fast, so after a while, it stopped in front of the main entrance of Hongsheng Building.

After the car came to a complete stop, the coachman took down the stool, and Lian Dong supported Lian Zi, stepped on the stool to get off the carriage, and then walked towards Hongsheng Building.

At this time, the girl had already stood on the threshold of Hongsheng Building, exchanged glances with another girl, and then smiled at Lianzi: "Madam Su, please."

Su Keyan looked up, and saw the word "Plum Blossom Pavilion" written on the small sign on the door.

He raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, but strangely, no one came to open the door, and no one answered.

So he tapped again.

I knocked three times in a row, but no one answered.Su Keyan was puzzled, and pushed the door open with force.

This private room was the same as he had seen before. There was a big table in the outer room with a table of dishes on it.It is separated by a landscape screen, and there are couches and chairs inside, which can be used by guests to rest.

"Master Zhao, Master Zhao." Su Keyan called out.

There was no one outside, so he went straight to the inside.

After taking one step over the screen, Su Keyan was taken aback.

She, why is she here?

"Master Su." Seeing his tall and straight figure appear, Li Shuxuan got up, bent slightly, and saluted.

It wasn't Master Zhao, it was her.

Su Keyan couldn't help being astonished, feeling something was wrong in his heart, thinking that he should leave immediately.

"Miss Li is too polite." Su Keyan said, "I must have walked into the wrong room and bumped into Miss. Please forgive me."

After saying this, he turned around and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Li Shuxuan suddenly said: "Master Su did not go wrong, I invited Master Su to come."

Su Keyan stopped in his tracks. If this was the case, then he couldn't stay anymore.

"I think Ms. Li made a mistake. I made an appointment with my colleagues here, so I must have gone by the wrong way." Su Keyan said so, so as not to make her face too ugly.

Saying this, he took another step to leave.

But at this moment, Li Shuxuan suddenly said: "Master Su, I have something to tell you about Mrs. Su."

When she said this, Su Keyan's heart skipped a beat.

As long as it is related to lotus seeds, he will be very concerned.

"What's the matter?" He turned and looked at her and asked.

Li Shuxuan looked at him, and she knew that as long as it was related to her, he would definitely be caught.

"I have been with Mrs. Su for a long time, and I have some friendship. I still understand her kind of person," Li Shuxuan said, and took a few steps towards Su Keyan. A person who cares."

Su Keyan was suspicious, is this what she wanted to say?

"En." Su Keyan nodded and said, "Is there anything else Miss Li has to do?"

Still looking at him, Li Shuxuan approached him again.

In an instant, the calmness on her face was gone, replaced by a lovely and pitiful expression.

"Master Su, have you forgotten that when we met last year, my father's intention was to marry me to you."

After saying this, she continued to approach Su Keyan, and didn't stop until she was only a few steps away from him.

But when she stopped, Su Keyan took a few steps back to put some distance away from her.

"Ma'am, be careful." The girl and Liandong together helped Lianzi's neighbor to the second floor.

"It's just that you didn't agree at that time." Li Shuxuan continued, "Is it because you don't like me? Or don't you like my father?"

She has been in Li's residence for a year, and although her temper has become a little bolder, she can also see some ways in the things involved.

She knew that Su Keyan didn't like Li Mo.

At the beginning, when Su Keyan rejected Li Mo's marriage proposal, although she felt reluctant, she still persuaded herself and forced herself to think about it, but later she found that she couldn't do it at all.Moreover, after Su Keyan became an official in Beijing, she also slowly realized that he didn't like Li Mo.If this is the case, does that mean that he refused because of his father?

"I—" Su Keyan was about to speak, but was interrupted by Li Shuxuan.

"If it's because of my father, then I'd rather leave him and the Li family!" Li Shuxuan said.

This time, let her be self-willed for once, caring about his benevolence and morality, caring about his nonsense female precepts, all she knows is that this time, she will follow her heart.
