Princess Fuyao

Chapter 162
Liang Mingrui saw her dark eyes under the raised eyelashes, showing a bit of sadness and regret, and his mood suddenly improved a lot. When the two carriages came together, Fuyao stopped automatically. The driver thought that Fuyao would be like when he came. That way, go to another carriage.

"Juzi, you and Lao Wang are sitting in the prince's carriage."

"Then this way..." Seeing that the master didn't speak, the two stopped asking more questions and got out of the car obediently.

Fuyao was about to go out to catch the car, but Liang Mingrui stopped her: "I'll do it!" He went out and sat on the shaft of the car, and Fuyao simply sat beside him.

"On weekdays, you listen to smart people, but who knows that there are places where you are not enlightened. Outsiders know that I like you, and I prefer you, hum!" Liang Mingrui said in his heart.

Seeing his mouth moving, Fu Yao muttered something, but couldn't hear him at all, so he couldn't help asking: "What?"

"Have you ever wondered why General Shang's family is pestering you?"

"Isn't it because someone wants to plot against you?" Fuyao rolled his eyes at him, blurting out what was in his heart, and then blushed.

"Then why don't you think about it, why do you think you're in the way?" Liang Mingrui complained, but he was worried in his heart: I know this, but I don't do anything. Is it really meaningless to me?

"They felt that it wasn't just me who was in the way, but also other girls. At the beginning, everyone was busy competing in poetry and criticizing poems, but then they didn't know where they went. This was all arranged in advance, and no one could escape. But, seeing you like this, that girl must have failed." Fuyao suddenly felt better, and grinned at Liang Mingrui.

Liang Mingrui just heard her words, and wanted to curse angrily, but seeing such a bright smiling face, his heart was so excited that he couldn't say those words.

One smile can captivate people's city, another smile can captivate people's country, Fuyao is so bright and lovely, he has to hurry up.

"Hmph! Except for me, no one is allowed to laugh like that!" He said a little domineeringly.

Fuyao nodded happily: "Understood."

Seeing her so well-behaved, Liang Mingrui was in a good mood immediately. He held the whip in his left hand and held Fuyao's hand in his right, "Go back, I'll invite a matchmaker to come to the door, you have to agree!"

"What's the use of my parents' orders and matchmaker's words!" Fuyao joked in retaliation.

"You still dare to flirt with me, let's see how I deal with you!" He stretched out his little finger to scratch her palm, and begged for mercy immediately:

"I promise, I will tell my father when I get back, and ask him to promise you."

Although the sun is already westward and the weather is not as hot as noon, it is still very comfortable.The wheat and rapeseed have turned green, nourished by the spring rain, and they are growing vigorously. Occasionally, a small wild flower pokes its head out, making the green field even more vibrant. The two of them are in a good mood, and they feel more beautiful when they look at it.

Mrs. General Shang sent Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Yan away, and let out a sigh of relief: "My mother, there are really many things in the circle of nobles in the capital, and next time, I will never be able to get the favor of others. "

Shang Fengchun took his mother's hand, nodded and said: "Yes, mother, sister Ji painted me such a beautiful makeup, but I lied to her, don't mention how upset I am now, I sent her out just now, I feel ashamed of guilt See people, from now on, we will never owe favors again."

"What's more, today our family owes a lot to the matriarch of the county, and she is worried about what to pay for it. Oh, and your sister-in-law, who came back with a portrait of a tiger, Miss Hao couldn't see it. Seeing it straight, I kept praising: 'Good painting! Good painting!' while holding a pen to follow the drawing. At that time, your sister-in-law was embarrassed, saying that the county mistress is a really good girl, and she repays evil with virtue."

"Miss Hao said that painting is good?"

"Well, I also said that I have the opportunity to ask the county mistress for advice."

Shang Fengchun thought of Chang Yanjun, she was far behind Miss Hao, she didn't even have the courage to draw a stroke in front of everyone, and even criticized the county magistrate for not drawing well, which seemed to be a malicious slander.

"Mother, God is watching. King Zhongren doesn't like Miss Chang at all. She sprained her foot and fell, and she couldn't even help her up. She deserves it! Retribution!"

Although these words were harsh, Mrs. Shang did not blame her daughter, but reminded her: "I think Mrs. Guo was deceived to come here. Mrs. Yan will not be kind enough to be a matchmaker for the girl of the Chang family today, right?"

Seeing her daughter nodding, Mrs. Shang said again: "Xiaofeng, don't be foolish and be kind from now on. Let me see, Miss Chang's fall may have been done on purpose by herself. If King Zhongren goes to help her, it will be a waste of money." It can’t be shaken off any more.”

"Well, yes, these noble ladies and noble sons in the capital do have more twists and turns than the people in Shangjia Town. If I'm not careful, I won't know if I'm sold out."

Mrs. Shang turned her head and glanced at the endless peach grove. She just wanted to buy a house, but such a good thing came to her door. She invested 5000 taels and received an average of 800 taels of silver every year. It turned out that there were other things to pay.They used to live in a small town and moved to the capital for the sake of the general. At first they liked the prosperity and comfort here. Now, Mrs. Shang doesn't see it that way, and they are struggling to live. It's better to have a simple meal.

Liang Mingrui returned home and sent someone to invite the flower matchmaker, but the flower matchmaker wanted to refund his reward, and refused to come anyway. He had no choice but to wait until tomorrow to find another matchmaker.

When he got up the next morning, Liang Mingrui continued his work as usual. At the end of the hour, he went to the clean room, washed off his sweat, combed his hair again, put on clean clothes and came out. Someone is here, Eunuch Chen."

"Welcome people into the living room first, I'll be right there."

Eunuch Chen is the person in front of the queen, what do you want him to do?With doubts, Liang Mingrui hurried over, the two exchanged pleasantries, and Liang Mingrui stepped back.Eunuch Chen didn't come to chat, he'd better play by chance.

Eunuch Chen praised secretly in his heart, and then he said: "The empress is worried recently, alas, life is hard even for me."

Liang Mingrui had a slightly sympathetic expression on his face, but he didn't speak.

What he is most afraid of is that some noble master will fall in love with him, be dragged into a certain carriage to seize the throne, and become king if he succeeds. He is already a prince, and there is no reward. How many of the heroes with high meritorious deeds can escape unscathed?
If he loses, it will be out of control, and death is certain. For him, the best way now is to be an idle nobleman.

Eunuch Chen could naturally guess what Liang Mingrui was thinking, and he continued his topic: "King Zhongren, you have an excellent opportunity right now, if you seize it, you will be under one person and above ten thousand in the future."

"Eunuch Chen, please don't say that to me. Our Liang family has a Liang Bingwang. It is because of his ambition that he betrayed the country and ruined his family. Now, above the ancestral hall of our Liang family, there is a sign that reads 'Be safe and keep yourself, I am not suitable to be a big official, nor do I want to be a big official."

Eunuch Chen was very angry: "What if your master wants you to help?"

"But as sent by the emperor, I don't seek wealth and honor, but peace of mind!"

Eunuch Chen can't take the blame, he is loyal to the emperor, what else do you have to say?The queen's is the emperor's, but the emperor's may not be the queen's.Simply, don't do one thing and keep doing it, let's do it.

"The queen's oral order!"

Liang Mingrui was stunned, should he answer or not?If you don't pick it up, you will be killed immediately, and then you will be charged with any crime. If you pick it up, you will die a few days late.

"The minister accepts the order!" Let's watch while walking.

"I will invite Princess Shangba to court today!"

Liang Mingrui's face was flushed with anger. Yesterday the Eighth Princess openly ran to the Shang family's Taoyuan to meet Yinhu. What's going on with him asking for an account now?Are you uncomfortable?

"Please send a message, my father-in-law, I request to see the queen."

Well, this can be regarded as an answer, Eunuch Chen heaved a sigh of relief, as for what King Zhongren said when he met the queen, he didn't care.

"You wait at home." There were quite a few people who knew about the matter, even noble concubines and concubines were staring at him, he didn't dare to take Liang Mingrui to the palace rashly, so he could only tell him so.

"Ok!"

When Eunuch Chen went out, Liang Mingrui immediately wrote a letter and asked Liang Zhong, the old servant who sweeps the floor at home, to send it out.

Liang Zhong was his secret guard, and his whole family lived in Wancheng, more than 1000 miles away from here. They were a well-to-do family.Back then, Liang Bingzheng rescued Liang Zhong and gave him money to start a small business to make a living. After Liang Bingzheng died, Liang Zhong ran around looking for the lost second son. It became Liang Mingrui's hidden stake, until now.

Liang Zhong carried the letter, carried a wine gourd, and walked to a shop in a small alley, "Drinking wine!" A middle-aged woman came out, took the wine gourd neatly, and the letter. Fuyao's servants, the reason why they are so mysterious today is mainly because they are afraid that the queen will send someone to follow them here.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Liang Mingrui's letter was delivered to Fuyao. After reading it, she couldn't help but feel angry. These noble people have already occupied excellent material resources. Why are they so greedy and restless?

The first thing Fuyao thought of was Yinhu, and asked him to find a way to find the emperor before Liang Mingrui. The eighth princess went out of the palace to meet Yinhu yesterday. Believe it or not, the emperor didn't know that he would definitely go along with the flow and preserve the royal dignity.

Immediately, Fuyao denied this plan, and the following things are not easy to handle.Yinhu favored the eighth princess, so he must fully support the crown prince.If things really come true, the crown prince is incompetent, and it is necessary to rely on this brother-in-law. The Great Yong Dynasty is in danger, and a bloody storm will be in the not-too-distant future.To avoid such a disaster, the only way is to stop the prince and replace the emperor with someone else, even if the emperor doesn't want to abolish the prince.

For the sake of her daughter, ruining her son, the queen will never agree!
Thinking of what happened yesterday, Fuyao suddenly had a flash of inspiration, hurriedly changed into men's clothes, went out through the side door, and rode straight to the suburbs.

After lunch, Emperor Jiaming took a nap.Being an emperor is also very hard. The cock crows, and the court does not stop until almost noon, then eats, takes a nap, and gets up in the afternoon to review the memorial. With a loyal minister like Hao Zhiqian assisting him, the court looks better and better. Seeing that the bright future of Dayong Zhongxing is about to appear, he is getting more and more active as the emperor.
