Tanabata Diva Concert: Happy Breakup

Chapter 1220 173: The Cui Family's Rumors 1

As the news that the eldest daughter of the Cui family and Li Mao of the Li family had been pregnant and married into the Li family became more and more widespread, and with the help of someone who deliberately spread the news, the matter became uncontrollable.

The Five Surnames and Seven Famous Families, the Taiyuan Wang family, the Wang family in Chang'an, Wang Kui is in the study at this moment, he is standing in front of the desk and picking up a brush to practice calligraphy. Soon, the new housekeeper of his Wang family mansion came and whispered a few words in Wang Kui's ear,
The pen in Wang Kui's hand trembled, and a drop of ink fell on the white paper. Obviously, the paper was wasted, but Wang Kui didn't care at all. Instead, he looked at the housekeeper in surprise and asked seriously, "Is this true?"

The housekeeper said: "I don't know yet, but the news has spread all over Chang'an City now."

Wang Kui gritted his teeth and said, "If that's the case, then find someone to help add fuel to the fire and do it covertly. Although Cui ceded a part of the profits to my Wang family, I can't bear that anger."

The housekeeper replied, "Yes, Master."

The housekeeper rushed over and arranged for people to fan the flames of this matter.

With the Wang family's secret help, the news spread even faster.

Moreover, the Wang family's housekeeper secretly hired some thugs to spread the news everywhere in various public places, such as the West Market and the East Market.

My goodness, my goodness, this situation is like a drop of water dropped into a boiling oil pan.

When Zheng Zhengjin and Li Leyan walked out of the palace after having lunch, the news had almost become known to everyone in Chang'an City, but the most important people were still kept in the dark.

The residence of the Longxi Li family in Chang'an is not far from the East Market, a super rich area. Last night, Li Mao, who had finished his wedding night with his bride, was in high spirits, with an indescribable smile on his face.

The head of the Li family was also very satisfied with Cui's legitimate daughter. After she married into the Li family, she came to pay her respects to the old couple early this morning.

But at this moment, the Li family's housekeeper hurriedly ran to the ear of the current patriarch of the Li family and whispered a few words. The Li family patriarch's face became extremely ugly, as if he had eaten a dead rat.

He whispered, "Who told you this?"

The housekeeper whispered, "Patriarch, this matter has spread throughout Chang'an. I don't know who it is! What should we do now?"

Rumors are more ferocious than tigers, and the head of the Li family naturally knew about this matter.

"My Li family has always valued peace and harmony, and never had any grudges with others. Who on earth wants to ruin the reputation of my Li family, bastard?" Old man Li slapped the armrest of the chair. His anger was beyond words.

The housekeeper whispered in Chief Li's ear: "Chief, it is better to believe it than not to believe it! Isn't Wang Kui the best example?"

The head of the Li family obviously had not thought of this. After hearing what the housekeeper said, he immediately said, "You are right. If Cui really dares to do this, I will definitely not let Cui go. But what should we do urgently? According to what you said, the rumor has spread everywhere, so this matter must have reached the ears of the person in the palace. Then my Longxi Li family will become a huge joke."

The housekeeper whispered in the ear of Patriarch Li: "Patriarch, why don't we make this matter public? If we can prove that this is a rumor, then those rumors will be broken. If this is true, then we can definitely find the Cui family. After all, my Li family is the victim."

Patriarch Li was torn between his own conscience and his own desires. The whole Chang'an was filled with rumors. If that was the case, he might as well make the matter public. If someone was deliberately spreading rumors to maliciously sabotage the marriage between the Cui and Li families, then he would never let this matter go.

He was thinking of a countermeasure in his mind, and then said to the housekeeper, "You arrange for ten more prestigious doctors in Chang'an City to come and diagnose my daughter-in-law's pulse. Also, take this token to the palace to invite the doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau. I want to see if Cui is really so vicious." The housekeeper nodded when he heard this. After all, this was the best way now.

Cui Family,

Cui Geng was so angry at this moment that he smashed all the precious stationery in the study room. He angrily cursed, "Who is this bastard who spread rumors and is trying to kill my daughter?"

He analyzed it carefully and thought that at this moment, the person who least wanted a big family marriage was probably someone in the palace, but that person would not use such despicable means.

"Zheng Renji? No, that guy has left Chang'an for a while, it must not be Zheng Renji, Taiyuan Wang family? That old guy Wang Kui? It shouldn't be, after all, that old guy doesn't have such a brain." After Cui Geng calmed down, he began to analyze who was targeting his Cui family.

But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find any suitable candidate. There was no other way. His Cui family was very wealthy and had offended too many people.

"Butler, go check what happened and who spread it first." Cui Geng felt a bit like having a heart attack. He felt really bad.

The butler answered yes and then walked out.

At this moment, Zheng Zhengjin was holding Li Leyan's hand and walking on Zhuque Street. Both the husband and wife were dressed in strange clothes, and they were both very good-looking, so naturally, the rate of turning heads was countless.

Zheng Zhengjin looked calm, "Just look, he won't lose any weight." But Li Leyan was different. She had grown up in seclusion since she was a child. Facing those eyes looking at her like a national treasure, she couldn't help but feel shy.
But fortunately, Zheng Zhengjin's big hand gave her a look that seemed to show that she could face everything calmly.

But she was more or less feeling unwell last night because of the bridal chamber. She and Zheng Zhengjin walked around for a short distance before she felt exhausted.

Zheng Zhengjin had no choice but to say, "My dear, let me carry you on my back."

Li Leyan felt sweet in her heart, but in this era, although the customs were open, the status of women was still very low. Moreover, this was on the street, and she didn't want her husband to be accused of being immoral by the group of censors in the court.

So she could only say, "Husband, I remember that the restaurant that General Cheng Zhijie gave you is not far away. Why don't we go there to rest for a while?"

Hearing this, Zheng Zhengjin smiled and said, "Then I will carry you to the restaurant. After all, the restaurant is close, but I don't want you to feel sick. It's all my fault. I neglected some things."

Zheng Zhengjin immediately held Li Leyan in his arms like a princess amid her cries, and then walked leisurely towards the restaurant that was not yet open.

At this moment, Li Leyan buried her head in her arms. She was so shy that she didn't dare to see anyone. The blush on her face gradually spread to her neck. Then she simply buried her head in Zheng Zhengjin's arms. In this way, no one on the street outside would recognize her as Li Leyan.

Soon the two arrived at the restaurant.

Although the restaurant is not open for business now, there are still people stationed there. Zhang San has arranged for people from the palace to come and guard the place.
