I see You Lian is the ally

Chapter 161 Sorry I Can't Do It

Under the call of the painting corner, Qianjie flew to her shoulder and squatted down with her big tail fluttering.

He leaned close to Huajiao's ear, and told Huajiao the only news he had just asked from the fox demon's mouth.

"He said that his master is a demon king, and he is very handsome." Qian Jie said in a low voice.

"Who is the demon king, where is it, and what kind of demon?" Huajiao raised his eyebrows and asked.

Qianjie was dumbfounded.

Hua Jiao sighed and looked at the fox demon, but saw him staring at him without blinking, his eyes were full of shock.

When this fox demon was an adult, he was suave and suave with a hint of evil charm, but at this moment, his dazed look was unreasonably naive.

Hua Jiao thought it was a little funny, but she couldn't care less about him right now.

Xuexiu rushed into the yard as if she was stepping on a hot wheel, panting and shouting: "Lady, Pei...Little General Pei is here, he...he..."

Huajiao stroked Qianjie's big fluffy tail, and asked lightly: "What's wrong with him, please speak slowly."

"He's here to give the dowry. Lin Gu asked the maidservant to come and inform the lady to ask you for advice. She doesn't know how to deal with it." Xuexiu took a breath and said hastily.

Hua Jiao frowned, left Qianjie behind and headed for the front yard.Her feet were like the wind, Xuexiu ran a few steps before catching up.

"Miss, Gu Lin didn't let you show up. You should have avoided such an occasion."

Hua Jiao didn't care about those etiquettes at the moment, he kept walking and left quickly.

"I haven't finished speaking yet, there is another person who came with General Pei." Xuexiu shouted anxiously.

Hua Jiao was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Who is it?"

"Kang... King Kang."

Standing on the porch of the front hall, Lin Gu watched the servants of Pei's mansion carry the betrothal gifts into the courtyard one by one.

Theoretically, the Pei family should have negotiated with Lin Gu a few days in advance, and set a date to come over to deliver the dowry.Pei Ruji suddenly came over without saying hello, Lin Gu was somewhat dissatisfied.

However, the betrothal gift from the Pei Mansion was very grand, and most importantly, the Pei Mansion also hired a person of high status as a matchmaker.

King Kang Li Ye looked at Aunt Lin with a slight smile, and said, "You are Mrs. Lin, the steward of Zheng's mansion. The marriage between General Pei and Mrs. Jiang was originally a marriage gifted by the father. According to theory, the father is the real son. It is inappropriate for me to be a matchmaker, but General Pei asked me to accompany him for a walk, so I can be a witness."

Lin Gu hurriedly bowed and gave a big gift: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Kang Wang Li Ye said again: "Little General Pei's character is impeccable, Pei and Zheng are also family friends, this marriage can be said to be a good match."

What else Gu Lin could say was a smirk on her face, saying yes again and again.

To be honest, Lin Gu was also very satisfied with Pei Ruji.Not only is he handsome, but he is also upright and progressive, and he is a perfect match for the little lady.

It's just...it's not him who is in the heart of the little lady.

Lin Gu sometimes wondered, if Pei Ruji hadn't divorced the young lady, would the situation be different?Whether the little lady will fall in love with him, but she doesn't know, because there is no such thing.

Lin Gu glanced at Pei Ruji, seeing him coming in a splendid attire, his eyes were like stars, his lips were smiling, he was obviously in a good mood.

Hearing that Huajiao was on the list for concubine selection, Pei Ruji stepped forward to stop the matter, and he was also a reliable person.He also has a deep affection for the little lady of her family. If the little lady marries in the future, life will not be bad.

Lin Gu sighed in her heart, feeling a little overwhelmed with worry.

The emperor granted the marriage, and King Kang was the matchmaker.

In this case, she might have to agree for the little lady, and it would be difficult to ask Pei Ruji to carry the betrothal gift back in front of King Kang.

Lin Gu gave a salute and said: "It's rare that General Pei cherishes our little lady so much, she must be someone who can be entrusted to. As slaves, we naturally have nothing to say. Please also sit down in the hall with Your Highness and General Pei. Now go and inform the little lady."

Pei Ruji said yes.

Kang Wang Li Ye said with a smile: "Steward Lin, Pei's mansion has been watched by others, and the 28th of next month will be a good day. I also ask Steward Lin to ask Miss Jiang for her opinion."

"Next... next month's 28th? Is this a little too urgent?" Lin Gu asked, "I'm afraid we won't be able to prepare for it at all."

Although she had always hoped that the little lady would marry a good family, it was difficult for her to accept that she would leave the cabinet so soon.Apart from other things, it is too late to prepare the dowry.

King Kang glanced at Aunt Lin, and said thoughtfully: "The days are a little rushed, how about this, the king ordered the Ministry of Rites to send people to help, so that we won't be unable to make preparations."

"This..." Lin Gu was speechless for a moment.

At this time, there was a commotion at the gate of the courtyard, Lin Gu looked over and couldn't help being taken aback.

Seeing this, Pei Ruji and Kang Wang couldn't help but turned around and looked around in amazement.

I saw Uncle Chen leading a person in.

He is dressed in plain clothes and has a handsome body. He is Yu Taiqing, the governor of the Tianshu Division.

Uncle Chen didn't expect that Yu Taiqing would come to visit at this time, so he graciously led Yu Taiqing into the courtyard in order to let Yu Taiqing take a look at the betrothal gifts all over the courtyard.

Yu Taiqing and his group traveled slower than Huajiao, and they just rushed back to Lan'an City from Chongwu Mountain today.As soon as he arrived at the mansion, he received a message from Prince Li Huan.

Before Yu Taiqing went to Chongwu Mountain, she once revealed to the prince that her ideal person was Jiang Huajiao.This time, Li Huan paid special attention to the election of the concubine. Seeing that Huajiao was running for the election, he was trying to get rid of Huajiao's name, but he didn't want Pei Ruji to get ahead of him.

The emperor bestowed the marriage, and the crown prince Li Huan was helpless, and he deeply felt that he was entrusted by Yu Taiqin.He sent people to the Dujian Mansion to wait every day, and when Yu Taiqing returned to the mansion, he would inform him.

When Mrs. Yu heard about this, she hurried over to see Huajiao without even changing her clothes.

Lin Gu looked at Yu Taiqing, and seeing his dusty face, she knew that he had just returned to Lan'an.

Pei Ruji frowned, went forward, and said, "So it's Yu Dujian. I heard that you traveled a long way, and when will you return to Lan'an?"

Yu Taiqing glanced over the boxes and cages piled up in the courtyard, and said with a half-smile, "I just came back today."

Yu Taiqing said, bowed to Kang Wang Li Ye who was next to him, and said, "I didn't expect His Royal Highness Kang Wang to be here."

King Kang said with a smile: "Brother Qing, why are you here? You came just in time. I came here today to be a matchmaker on behalf of my father. Why don't you join me to make a good match for the pair of General Pei and Mrs. Jiang?" Be a witness."

Yu Taiqing looked at King Kang with burning eyes, his usual calm expression disappeared, and there seemed to be flames burning in his deep eyes.

He said slowly: "I don't know, it turns out that His Highness also has the pleasure of being a matchmaker. But, forgive me for not being able to do it."
