Chapter 178 I Only Love One Prince

[Looks like I started to abuse again = = Well, I'm sorry everyone... Subscribe hard~~]

The weather in late autumn was getting colder, and the two of them sat in the yard for a short time before their hands became icy cold.Su Yu doesn't care about anything, anyway, her hands have been like this for so many years, and she is used to it.

But Liu Mengrong's health is not very good, originally Xiaoqin and Gezi retreated, wanting to give the two masters some space to be alone, but seeing that the weather outside was getting colder, they were going to ask them both to go back to the house.

Liu Mengrong never thought about Su Yu's question just now, stood up and said very naturally: "Su Yu, look at what you said, the crown prince is my husband, who else can I like if I don't like him? .Come on, let's go into the room and talk, I'm going to be frozen in a while."

Su Yu also stood up, but when she raised her head, she froze... When did An Xuesong come?How long have you been here?

Seeing Su Yu's expression, Liu Mengrong herself was very puzzled, but when she looked back, she found that An Xuesong was looking at this side with a blank expression, and her whole body was tainted by the autumn wind.

And Liu Mengrong's head exploded with a bang, as if he just said something that he couldn't say.

She wanted to step out with difficulty and wanted to explain something, but she didn't know where to start.Does it mean that knowing An Xuesong is a lucky thing, or is it a matter of course that he likes the prince?Liu Mengrong didn't know, but she only knew that if she didn't do anything, An Xuesong would really disappear from her life.

After a while, he smiled slowly, and brought a lot of things inside that Liu Mengrong couldn't understand. "I just left something here. I just came here to pick it up, and now I've got it. I'm going back. Goodbye." Dare to go back.

"Sir!" Liu Mengrong was also a little anxious, and called out directly.

Su Yu looked at these two fools who were in love with each other and became anxious, so he pushed Liu Mengrong casually: "Go and chase!"

"Ah? Ah!" Liu Mengrong turned her head and ran out towards the door without even seeing the prince who was walking towards this side.

Just now, Chen Yebai saw a figure standing here, and the figure was definitely An Xuesong.And now looking at the figure of Liu Mengrong running out, he also knew that something happened between the two of them, and this incident must have something to do with Su Yu.

"Xiaoyu, let's go back, I'll pick you up." Chen Yebai ignored Liu Mengrong and An Xuesong, but walked into the yard and said to Su Yu.

Su Yumeng's heart panicked. Oh no, Chen Yebai didn't notice that Liu Mengrong went out to chase Mr. An just now, right?So Su Yu hurriedly grabbed Chen Yebai and walked in the opposite direction of Liu Mengrong's running: "Enen, go back, I happen to be hungry too, let's go back to eat, why did you come back so early today?"

Chen Yebai still couldn't see Su Yu's careful thoughts, and felt angry and funny in his heart, "Why are you talking so much today? Didn't you never want to talk to me in the past?"

Su Yu was angry: "That's because you talk too much, I lose face every time you say it! This time too, you see I don't talk to you, you think I talk too little, now I talk to you , you still dislike my ink marks! What do you want from me!"

"Oh, it's alright," Chen Yebai couldn't help touching Su Yu's head, probably not because of his illusion, he really felt that Su Yu had grown a lot taller, and it used to be less than his shoulders, but now he has reached it. "It's my fault, let's go back. I went to meet the emperor today and talked with him about the disaster relief in the coming year. Next year, I will find a trustworthy magistrate to distribute the money."

"Disaster relief?" Su Yu asked puzzledly, and Ge Zi followed behind the two. It seemed that the two years had been so close, and there was no gap at all.

"Yes, there was such a big locust plague in Sioux City this year. Many farmers estimate that next year they will have no seeds and no food, and there will be a severe drought next year. It is necessary to prepare in advance. My father and I The emperor talked about the issue of the relief money." Chen Yebai answered seriously.

"Silver taels? Shouldn't it come from the treasury?" Su Yu was even more puzzled, and really couldn't figure out the group of politicians.

"No, if it comes from the national treasury, it is inevitable that many checkpoints will be deducted before arriving in Sucheng, so we finally decided to collect it directly from the merchants in Sucheng." Chen Yebai omitted the following sentence, but if He looked at Su Yu playfully.

When Su Yu heard it, she became furious. She is also a businessman in Su City, and she is also a wealthy businessman in Su City. If she came from a businessman, she would definitely get a lot of money!It's not that she doesn't want to use her own efforts to help the disaster, but now she is paying for the court to do good deeds!She wants to take out the money herself, but she can't get anything. How can she be bullied like this!

"Why, the money of other merchants is also earned penny by penny. Do you think that the money they earn is brought by the strong wind? It really doesn't hurt to stand and talk, and the treasury has money to bully the common people. It's really unreasonable!" Su Yu said angrily.

Chen Yebai achieved his goal, and couldn't help laughing on the sidelines.He knew that Su Yu was a small money fan. If it was true according to what he said just now, these businessmen really suffered a big loss.

"Haha... I see you blowing up again...Xiaoyu, has anyone told you that you look funny when you are blowing up? Hahaha..." Chen Yebai couldn't help laughing out loud, and the snow beside them The guards on patrol couldn't help looking this way.They had never seen the prince smile like this before.The girl next to the prince should be Su Yu, she is really not an ordinary person.

"You know how to make fun of me! Don't laugh! Don't laugh!" Su Yuzhi stomped his feet angrily, and his cheeks were a little red.

Chen Yebai laughed for a long time before slowly stopping: "Okay...haha I won't laugh anymore...haha...don't laugh anymore, actually I didn't have time to say a word just now, you You’re going to cut me off. Of course, we can’t let these merchants suffer. According to the amount of silver they put out, we will also provide them with a reward, such as tax exemption for ten years, or help them open their shops. All over the country, and I am the one who took over this matter, so I will not be mean to them."

When Su Yu heard this, he realized that he had been tricked by Chen Yebai again.What the hell did she do in her previous life... But after hearing what Chen Yebai said, she also found that this deal was actually a win-win deal.It just so happened that she was unable to bring her business to the capital. If she was escorted by the royal family, she would no longer have to worry about Mrs. Jing being excluded.

So Su Yu could only say angrily: "Forget it, I have nothing to do with me anyway, let's go back to eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

On the other hand, Zheng Sheng, who was fighting with each other, and Liu Mengrong, who had caught up with An Xuesong, didn't say a word. It should be said that he was relatively speechless.

Just now An Xuesong walked so fast that Liu Mengrong ran all the way here, and now she is squatting on the ground panting heavily.She hadn't run so violently in so many years, and this time it really killed her.

"An... An... Mr. An..." She said out of breath.

An Xuesong felt distressed seeing Liu Mengrong like this, so he comforted softly: "You'd better take a break for now, let's talk about something later."

Liu Mengrong bowed her head and nodded, her hair was a little messy, not at all the graceful and generous look before.

When she was about to rest, she stood up again, but she didn't dare to look directly at An Xuesong.

"Sir..." She just said this sentence softly, but she didn't know, so she just said something else.

"Is the princess looking for something for me?" An Xuesong's tone was a bit cold, and no one would be happy after hearing Liu Mengrong's words of "expressing love" to the prince just now.

Liu Mengrong shook her head: "It's okay, I, I just want to see off Mr. An." But she kept shouting in her heart, no, it's not like this, I have something to tell you, but what? !what is it!Oops, just ask Su Yu, it won't be so embarrassing now.

"Since I have nothing to say, then I'll leave first." An Xuesong turned around and was about to leave, but in his heart he hoped that Liu Mengrong would open his mouth to stay with him, and tell himself that things were not what he thought, and that she didn't like the prince, otherwise It is also impossible that the prince is going to marry someone else, but he is not sad at all, are you generous?But what kind of love can be so generous that your husband is going to marry another woman, but you are still making a dowry for your rival!

Liu Mengrong opened her mouth, but only said two words: "Go slowly."

An Xuesong's hands clenched into fists in front of him.He asked coldly: "You only have the prince in your heart, right?"

Isn't the answer obvious?Liu Mengrong thought to herself, and then gave a soft "hmm".

"Okay." An Xuesong's heart ached violently, and her eyes gradually turned red.Although I knew it would be such an answer, I still couldn't accept it.Liu Mengrong, I really lost this time, and it was a crushing defeat. "Farewell." He left without looking back, leaving only Liu Mengrong standing there in a daze.

At first she didn't know what was going on, but tears fell down without warning. "Oh? Why am I crying? Is there sand in my eyes?" Liu Mengrong wiped away her tears casually, but her eyes were like springs, and the tears couldn't stop no matter what.

For so many years, Mengrong has suffered quite a lot. She was squeezed out by her brothers, married at a young age but was not favored by her husband, and was bullied by other ladies from time to time, but she never cried.

Then what happened to me?Liu Mengrong squatted down slowly, tears dripped down on the ground, and the voice of choking gradually came out... Liu Mengrong, what's wrong with you!
