Chapter 279
Zhuhua felt that she had stepped on a thunderstorm, and her brain was blown up.She didn't tell Yuanyuan when she went back, she waited for King Ping to come back, and took him to the study to discuss first.

"Mu Lin actually fell in love with Yuanyuan, do you know about this?"

Can King Ping say he knows?Of course it can't.He shook his head, and asked with some surprise: "He hides it very deeply. Does Yuanyuan know? What did she say?"

"I haven't told Yuanyuan yet, and I don't know if she knows?"

King Ping really didn't know this question, but he immediately asked, "Zhu'er doesn't like Mu Lin?"

"People are good, but the West Sea is too far away." As she said that, she remembered that Mu Lin had sent a woman who was lost to him to Prince Ping's mansion. From this point of view, this person would not go to spend time and drink , but it is also possible that he has been acting on purpose since then.

"He might not go back to the West Sea." King Ping said flatly, seeing that Zhuhua was still a little puzzled, he added two words, "proton."

"But..." Zhuhua frowned tightly, and after a while said, "Then you can't marry."

"You still don't believe in the Holy One?"

"Your Majesty, Hao Ming, and someone who doesn't know who will be in the future... which one can you really trust? Letting a prince and princess marry the second son of the county prince is a low marriage, let alone such a situation, I don't think so." Yuanyuan is willing to be wronged like this."

"If Hao Ming really has a different heart, isn't the husband of a princess just right to contend with him?"

Zhuhua's face darkened, she glanced at him, and asked, "It seems that you are very happy with Yuanyuan and Mu Lin's marriage?"

"Why, I'm just talking to you about the pros and cons of this marriage. Our children have to make their own decisions when they get married. You didn't tell me that before. I don't think Yuanyuan is interested in that kid either. This marriage can't be done." King Ping immediately explained, even though he really felt that this was a marriage that could be married, the current Xihai Prefecture is not the Xihai Prefecture of the past.

"It can't be the best." Zhuhua said.

Although she was looking forward to the failure of the marriage, she did not hide it from Yuanyuan.

Yuanyuan is lazy, she has thought about it a long time ago, when Zhuhua looks at her, she will look at at most three people, and then choose the one who is the most comfortable among these three people.Now counting that Mu Lin already has three sons to marry, she can look at each of them.Mu Lin had known each other since childhood, so she ranked him last, and met the one introduced by Xie Zhenyan first.

The two sides met Li that day, and she knew in her heart that this marriage would not happen, and she knew it just by looking at the man's attitude.This young man really felt that Yuanyuan was a man of heaven two years ago, but in the past two years, the appearance of Yuanyuan has faded in his mind. Anyway, there are not a few such generous and bright women on the street, and he has seen more of them. His mind is gone.Seeing Yuanyuan now, although he still thinks Yuanyuan is beautiful, she is not as stunning as before, not to mention another person's name has already been engraved in his heart.

His mother also knew about this, but she was too embarrassed to mention it to Xie Zhenyan. When Xie Zhenyan asked to meet, they didn't dare to refuse, for fear of offending Zhuhua.

Seeing that the marriage would not work out, Zhuhua had a somewhat copious expression on her face, she didn't know that the way she coped was still a little scary.After drinking a cup of tea, the two parties said goodbye, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.The other party was glad that Princess Ping was just putting on airs and didn't do anything, and Zhuhua was glad that she didn't have to stay in such an embarrassing atmosphere any longer.She found that going on a blind date with her daughter was much more tiring than going on a blind date by herself.When you go on a blind date by yourself, you can pretend to be shy if you don’t have anything to talk about, but if you help your daughter to meet, even if she doesn’t have any interest, you still have to ask a few words about her usual pastimes.

I hope the second one can match, the mother and daughter thought at the same time.

Three days later, Yuanyuan had a second blind date.The young man Yinhua introduced hasn't changed his mind in the past two years. Yuanyuan thinks that he is gentle and polite, and everything is fine except that he has nothing to talk about.Since the first impression was good, she went to check his details carefully, and found out that although he hadn't changed his mind, the distant cousin who lived in his house hadn't changed his mind either.

This incident made Yuanyuan disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly. She knew that this young man might just be soft-hearted, and everyone in his family was also soft-hearted. Does she live in the house all her life?Do you want her to act like a villain and drive her away?Even if her mother has a bad reputation, she doesn't intend to bear the same unwarranted reputation, even if in comparison, she is much more cruel than Zhuhua.

The first two young masters did not match, and the only one Yuanyuan wanted to see was Mu Lin.She also wondered if it would be a little less to only see three people according to her original plan. It's not that she is picky, it's that these two young masters have their own problems, but if she asks her to see a few more, she will also take a nap. I have no patience.

The meeting between Mu Lin and Yuanyuan was directly arranged in the garden of Prince Ping's Mansion. Anyway, it was not the first time they met, and they didn't need an adult to accompany them.When Mu Lin came, Yuanyuan was lazily sitting in the tea room eating snacks, her mind was preoccupied with seeing each other, when Mu Lin entered the room, she looked him up.He was wearing a navy blue dark auspicious cloud-pattern forged robe, with a circle of black fur on the neckline and cuffs. He also wore a black jade crown on his head, which looked majestic.

"New clothes?" Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows and asked.

Mu Lin nodded without changing his expression, and sat down opposite her, but he didn't look at Yuanyuan.Yuanyuan was not annoyed, she poured him a cup of tea, and watched him pick it up and take a sip.

"When did you fall in love with me?" She said bluntly.

When Mu Lin heard that he was almost choked to death by the tea in his mouth, he coughed a few times, his face turned red from the cough or from embarrassment, then he frowned and glanced at Yuanyuan accusingly.

Yuanyuan looked back indifferently, with a reasonable look, "Why, I can't ask anymore?"

"You're a girl..." Mu Lin originally wanted to tell her to be more reserved, but under her staring eyes, she still answered her question helplessly: "I don't know, anyway, I just don't want you to marry someone else." .”

Yuanyuan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, then immediately fell down and looked at him lightly, with a look of indifference, and said, "You know the rules of our family..."

"What?" Mu Lin asked in confusion.

"No concubine."

Mu Lin suddenly nodded, "I know this, don't worry, I don't need you to tell me..."

As he said that, he felt that it would be embarrassing to just agree, so he coughed lightly and added: "It's not a good thing to have too many women in the family. Just having you is enough to cause headaches."

"Beware I throw a stone at you."

"You... I made your hidden weapon for you. I have ground many stones for you to use as a hidden weapon over the years. After all, it should be a token of love between the two of us, right?"

"Is there an agreement between us?" Yuanyuan asked with a straight face.

"As long as you nod your head, isn't it considered a promise?" Mu Linmu urged with a straight face.

It's a pity that Yuanyuan sat there, but she didn't nod her head. Seeing that she was deliberately annoyed at him again, Mu Lin couldn't help reaching out to press her head, but she bent over to avoid it.

"What are you doing, how can you force people to nod?"

Mu Lin withdrew his hand and asked, "You really don't want to, I will always treat you well alone."

Yuanyuan snorted softly to express her disbelief, but there was a faint smile in her eyes.

Before meeting Mu Lin, King Zhuhua and King Ping talked with her in private. Zhuhua didn't like her marrying to Xihaizhou, but King Ping thought it was a suitable marriage, but both of them finally said what she meant. Mainly.What does she mean?She suddenly felt that if she married Mu Lin, the days to come would be very interesting.And according to what Mu Lin said, he didn't want Yuanyuan to marry someone else, so what about her, she didn't think about what would happen if Mu Lin married someone else, she just didn't like women other than herself to make Mu Lin frown in anger.

The two sat together until dark, Yuanyuan still didn't nod, Mu Lin could only go back dejectedly, he thought Yuanyuan would agree.It was dark when he got home, and he tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep, and Yuanyuan was also unable to sleep.

The fact of getting married is too annoying, she thought drowsily when the sky was slightly white in the morning, and after falling asleep for a while, it was dawn, and she was immediately woken up by the bright sunshine outside.Not in the mood to lie down anymore, she simply got up and went to Zhuhua's courtyard to look for her after a simple dressing.

Now there are only three people in the family, and they eat breakfast in their own yard.Zhuhua was finishing her breakfast when she saw Yuanyuan approaching.

"Have you finished practicing martial arts?" Zhuhua asked.

Yuanyuan nodded a little guilty, in fact, she had already moved her martial arts practice from early morning to evening, just to get more sleep, so Miss Xu would teach her one now, and no one would report this to Zhuhua.

"What do you want to eat, I'll ask the kitchen to make you some more?"

Zhuhua's breakfast today consisted of porridge with eight side dishes, plus four-color snacks. She ate half of it, and Yuanyuan probably couldn't get enough of the rest.Yuanyuan doesn't like to drink porridge in the morning either, she prefers to eat noodles, but at the moment she doesn't think about what to eat.

"Mother, I want to agree to brother Mu Lin's marriage proposal." She said truthfully, and then she felt a little embarrassed after speaking, why did she agree so easily.

Zhuhua was stunned when she heard this, and then asked seriously: "Have you thought about it?"

"Think about it. I have also thought about the disadvantages that my mother said. In fact, I am not afraid of them."

Seeing Yuanyuan looking at her nervously, Zhuhua couldn't stop her anymore, so she said, "Okay, I see, I'll discuss it with your father."

"Oh." Yuanyuan replied, thinking that her father agreed to this marriage, she was not afraid of Zhuhua going to discuss it with him, so she sat down beside Zhuhua with a smile, and told the people next to her: "Let the kitchen Go get me a meatloaf, a bowl of noodles, and four-color dim sum."

"Is your breakfast too rich?"

"It's okay, my figure is in Xihai Prefecture, I heard it's still thin."

"That's what you believe."

Although Zhuhua said so, when the meatloaf came out, she shared half of it to taste.She is a little thinner than Yuanyuan, and it's okay to eat a little more, she comforted herself in her heart.

When King Ping was in power, she told King Ping what Yuanyuan meant, and King Ping was not surprised.Seeing that King Ping did not object, Zhuhua felt that she had guessed what King Ping meant. He really wanted Yuanyuan to get married to the prince's mansion of Xihai County.Since neither he nor Yuanyuan objected, there was no need for her to stop her.

On the other side, Mu Lin thought that Yuanyuan had rejected his marriage, and was depressed for a day, but Qin Dalang came to tell him a day later and asked him to go to Pingwang's mansion more when he had time.This meant that it was done, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to ask Qin Dalang a few more questions.But Qin Dalang's family has a lovely wife and young son, so he didn't have the time to tell him this, and after a few words of entertainment, he ran away, leaving Mu Lin happy alone at home.

Princess Yuzhen of Prince Ping's Mansion is married to the second son of Prince Xihai, so naturally she has to be heard by Datian.In a few days, the Holy Majesty asked the Empress Dowager to give the marriage formally, and this marriage was considered to be a clear path.Zhuhua still couldn't accept it, and wanted to chat with Xu Qingqing again, but it was really inconvenient for Chang'an and Xihaizhou to communicate, if she wrote a letter, the letter probably hadn't reached Xu Qingqing when the marriage decree came down.

After more than half a month, the king of Xihai County sent someone to formally propose marriage. Since the queen mother's holy will has been made, Zhuhua has to be willing even if she doesn't want to. Compared with Yu Boyan, the child Mu Lin once lived in the palace. After a while, she became more familiar with them, and Zhuhua also believed in him.King Ping was also quite satisfied with this future second son-in-law who obviously respected him very much.

Mu Lin is currently working in Dali Temple, and his status cannot hold such an important position.In fact, according to his own opinion, he would rather be in business.Xihai Prefecture is located in a remote place, and the Holy One is not allowed to open a market. If they have any business, they have to go to the neighboring Liangzhou. Limited to Liangzhou.If their goods want to be sold to farther places, they have to go through other merchants, including the Sun family's caravan. Although the price given by the Sun family is better than others, they still want to sell their goods through their own caravan. go elsewhere.

When he and Hao Ming came to Chang'an to study, they brought a caravan with them. Over the years, they have grown somewhat stronger, but it is not enough to rely on fierceness to compete with the Han people.Now that he is staying in Chang'an alone, this mess has also fallen on him.He can't leave Chang'an, and there are many things that can only be decided by the shopkeeper. This business is not big after all.

After getting engaged to Yuanyuan, he thought that Yuanyuan would know about it sooner or later, and when Yuanyuan came to find him for a trip, he introduced her to meet Searle, the caravan manager who happened to come to Beijing.Shopkeeper Searle is a strong man over forty years old, with a big beard and a foreign accent. He already spoke the best Chinese when the caravan was built, and he used to be Horse thieves are more vigilant than others when they meet old colleagues when they go out.

"Do you still have a caravan in Xihai?" Yuanyuan asked. Seeing Mu Lin and the shopkeeper glanced at each other, she was at a loss for words for a while, fearing that they would worry about whether she, the princess, would know about this, so she immediately said, "You guys are in the medicinal materials business." Interested?"

"Yes." Mu Lin replied immediately, heaving a sigh of relief.

In the past, while selling Xihaizhou specialties to the south, they would follow the trend to go to the south of the Yangtze River to buy some porcelain, tea and silk and then transport them back.But this business is now divided up by several big caravans, and they are also taking advantage of the Sun's caravan to share small profits.The Sun family's caravan is backed by Duke Wuguo's mansion and Wang Zhongguo, and the business has grown bigger and bigger these years.

In addition to these, they have also done a business of selling medicinal materials, and the water here is even deeper.The Sun family caravan does not do business in this area, they also made a few deals by their own exploration, and now they have some connections.

When Yuanyuan heard that they were really interested, she didn't want to go out to play anymore. She didn't like to go out to play. It was Zhuhua who saw that the two of them were always dating at Prince Ping's Mansion, and felt a bit intrusive, so she forced them to go out more. .Mu Lin was naturally willing, Yuanyuan saw that the weather was not bad, so she was willing to go out for a while.But no matter how good the scenery outside is, it doesn't matter as much as making money.

Immediately, she told them that she had a piece of medicine valley, which she bought with her salary as a princess over the years, and it was near the place where her master Li, who was studying medicine, lived.When she went out to learn how to distinguish medicinal materials, she had the intention to buy a piece of land to try growing medicinal materials, but the land outside was cheaper than she thought, at least much cheaper than the land in the capital.At that time, she had a hot brain and bought an entire valley. Later, she thought that the place was some distance away from Changjing, and she regretted it.

But she bought everything, and there was no reason to let it be abandoned. She immediately bought some strong men to open up wasteland there, and now she has no less than a hundred acres of medicine fields.However, it is not long before the medicinal materials are planted, and she is not sure how the medicinal materials she grows are compared to wild ones. Judging from the recent news from Jiajia, the quality seems to be guaranteed.

The three of them talked for an afternoon and decided on the preliminary regulations. When the shopkeeper went to study it carefully, Mu Lin suddenly realized.

"Is this your private property?"

Married as a woman can naturally have her own private property, but after marriage, the private property must belong to the man, unless the private property is included in the dowry.

Yuanyuan naturally knew it too, as soon as she rolled her eyes, she immediately said, "No, this belongs to Jiajia, I will take care of it for him."

Mu Lin didn't believe it at all, but he would never covet a woman's things as a man. After the two of them get married, Yuanyuan's private property will also belong to their children in the future. She can hide it now if she wants to.Compared to this, he saw that it was almost sunset, and he might not be able to travel today, so he felt it was a pity in his heart.

"Are you coming tomorrow?"

"Come on, I have nothing to do with you, let's settle the rest. By the way, you will be on duty tomorrow, so I'm afraid we can't discuss it. But it's okay, even if you're not here, the shopkeeper Searle and I can settle the matter. "

Mu Lin was a little bit worried when he heard that, he was quite free in the yamen, and he wanted to ask for a day off to go out with her, but now it seems that Yuanyuan is not interested in going out at all, so he better not ask so as not to be sad .

Since we can't go out together tomorrow, he should spend more time with Yuanyuan today. The only way he can think of is to send her home.Originally, when Yuanyuan came here, she came in a carriage, and when she went back, the two of them rode back slowly together.There is no way, Mu Lin's family is still a long way from Prince Ping's Mansion, if the two of them walk home, Yuanyuan will probably be too tired to regret the marriage after walking halfway.
