Chapter 232

Mrs. Liu had a fawning expression on her face, and the old lady couldn't refuse, "Really? I haven't seen a coral tree in many years. Thank you in-laws for opening my eyes today."

Liu's face was full of smiles, and she felt indescribably satisfied. Li Wan understood that Liu was just trying to show off. Li Zhongqing's official position was promoted, but everything in the mansion remained the same. If he makes a wrong step, the whole Li Mansion will suffer accordingly.

The coral tree was placed in the hall, and a maid was sent to guard it, the corners of Li Wan's mouth twitched, Liu's heart was too nervous, who would dare to mess with things in her courtyard?Mrs. Liu is very careful about the belongings around her. She knows that a copper plate is missing, or a bead is missing in the dressing box. I haven't worn bracelets for a long time, so I put away Mrs. Liu's two bracelets and locked them in the cabinet. There was a bottle of words on the counter where the bracelet boxes were originally placed. Mrs. Liu noticed it, and immediately called everyone to the yard, Someone stole her box. Chunshui realized that she told the truth to Mrs. Liu, but she was reprimanded and her monthly bill was deducted for half a year. Everyone knew about this at the time, and after that, she dared not enter Mrs. Liu casually. room up.

Pure red coral trees are indeed rare, and, judging by the size of the coral tree, this one is not cheap, Li Wan was worried, "Mother, who gave it to you, what do you say about such an expensive gift?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu became angry. The coral tree was sent by the Xinglehou Mansion, and Mrs. Liu accepted it immediately. Li Zhongqing wanted her to return it. How could she return it intact after accepting the gift from others? What's more, Mrs. Liu Shi has been in Beijing for so many years, and this is the first time she has seen such an expensive gift in her own home. She refused, and Li Zhongqing quarreled with her, but she went to the study to find a book and gave it to her.

Li Wan shook her head after hearing this, no matter how valuable the coral tree is, it was bought with money, and the few books in Li Zhongqing's study are all unique copies handed down from her ancestors, and Qin Muyin also said that they are very valuable, "Mother, if you don't want to accept it, don't say it." , be careful that someone is going against your father..."

The old lady seemed to be interested in coral trees, and she walked around several times. Mrs. Liu touched Li Wan's arm, "If your in-laws like coral trees, you can give her a plant when she celebrates her birthday!"

Li Wan shook her head, the old lady didn't like it, it was just for Liu's face.

Suddenly, Liu's face froze and she stopped talking. She remembered something, "By the way, your cousin gave me a letter before leaving, and asked me to pass it to you. I will help you find it later."

Unexpectedly, Liu Jinyuan would write a letter to her, and Li Wan couldn't understand it. Before she left, Mrs. Liu handed the letter to her, "Please take it, don't let Lord Hou misunderstand it." After this letter was taken out, Liu Jinyuan's temperament was crooked, and her years of nurturing grace were wasted. Lin was used to being strong all her life and could not be disobeyed by others. Until the day Lin left, Lin was going to frame her and Li for Liu Jinyuan. Wan, if you want to stay and enjoy the glory and wealth, you cry to her loyally and benevolently, how could the Liu family be fooled?If Mrs. Lin stayed, Li's Mansion would definitely be full of smog. She gave Mrs. Lin some money every year, and she didn't want to face Mrs. Lin's calculating face all day long.

Li Wan went back to the house and took out the letter, and ordered Zilan to bring a brazier. What Liu Jinyuan wrote had nothing to do with her. It made no difference whether she read it or not. She threw the letter into the brazier. Li Wan asked Zilan, "Master Hou Woolen cloth?"

"Prince Cheng is here, Lord Hou went to the study, and asked the maidservant to tell you to send a table of meals to you in the evening. Prince Cheng wants to be filial and light." Zilan saw that the letter paper in the brazier was burnt, and returned it with it.

In the study room, King Cheng and Qin Muyin each hold a piece of chess, Qin Muyin calmly made a move, "Why is King Cheng free to come? The emperor is probably in a state of distress for the past two days. If you hear that you have come to the Marquis Mansion, be careful that the emperor makes excuses... "

Cheng Wang shrugged his shoulders indifferently, thought for a moment, and said, "I'm just here to talk with you. The prince's paper that I submitted these days has nothing to do with this king. I'm not afraid of the shadow. It's enough to do my job well." carry on."

Qin Muyin didn't say a word, and then dropped his hand again, and said with a smile, "That's right, what's the prize if you win?"

King Cheng didn't expect his conversation to change so quickly, looked at the black and white pieces on the chessboard, and said two words lightly, "It's up to you..."

At this time in the Zhaoyang Palace, Emperor Renhe was sitting in front of the imperial desk, with several memorials piled up in front of him. Emperor Renhe flipped through the notebooks on the table, raised his head and asked the father-in-law next to him, "Why is there no memorial for asking Feng Chengwang to be the prince?" ?”

The father-in-law bowed to salute, and seeing the voice said, "King Cheng is in charge of Yushitai. Yushitai has always been the place to impeach court officials. It is inappropriate for the people at Yushitai to ask Chengwang to be the prince. The slave wants to inherit Wang is avoiding suspicion."

Emperor Renhe frowned, and said in an unclear tone, "Back off, I will rest for a while..."
