If I want to run away from the outer chamber, I will criticize the prince madly and take me into the

Chapter 28 Is this how you ruin Gu’s reputation outside?

Cui Ying looked a little surprised, and she said that Chu Yan's thoughts were really the most difficult thing to guess in the world.

"Please, girl, come with me."

Cheng Chong turned sideways and made way for him. Cui Ying walked up. The two of them entered the house together. Chu Yan's study was not far away. She watched Cheng Chong go up and knock on the door. Chu Yan came from inside. the sound of.

"Come in."

After saying that, Cheng Chong opened the door and Cui Ying walked in.

"Your Highness?"

"Meet Ma Chaoyang?"

As soon as Cui Ying finished speaking, she saw a figure sitting up in the place covered by the curtain. She was shocked. Although she knew that there were people from Chu Yan around her, she had to be careful in everything she did, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly. It reached his ears.

"Your Highness knows things like a god."

She lowered her eyes and said, and the man chuckled: "Come here."

Cui Ying stepped forward and heard Chu Yan continue to say: "You said that Gu loves you very much and pesters you every night. Cui Ying, you are really wanton."

"I"

She thought Chu Yan was going to say what Ma Chaoyang said, but never thought that when his words changed, he would actually say these?

In particular, his voice was a little deep, and he was even more charming when he said these blushing and heart-pounding words.

"Those words are not true. They are just words I used to deceive him."

Listening to Cui Ying's panicked words, Chu Yan reached out and lifted the curtain. He pulled her closer to him, causing her to stagger and fall on him.

This posture looks like a hug.

"Is this how you ruin Gu's reputation outside?"

The man's words had a tone that could not be ignored. He let go, and the curtains slowly closed, covering the two of them in this world. Chu Yan's hand fell on her back, and his fingers hooked the waist of her little clothes. tape.

"So, in your eyes, Gu is like a hungry ghost in lust."

Cui Ying was startled, and suddenly thought that even if she didn't say that, you don't seem to have a good reputation.
He looked at Cui Ying's little face covered with red clouds, smiling, but his eyes were full of alienation. He thought about how to deal with Cui Ying. Killing was the best way, but for some reason, he felt that if he didn't Without Cui Ying, how boring would this life be?

He didn't kill him, but he always fell victim to her soft-heartedness time and time again. This woman was really a seductive temptress.

Forget it, if she is a kite, then this thread must be firmly held in her hands so that she can never break free.

She doesn't love him, but she has to act so dependent on herself. If it's not for Cui Yunliang, it can only be for herself.

Chu Yan was a little curious as to what she wanted.

"Your Highness, you are not that kind of person. You said those words just to help Your Highness confuse Ma Chaoyang."

Cui Ying hugged his neck and whispered: "He took it seriously, but in fact, I lied to him."

Seeing the smile in Cui Ying's eyes, Chu Yan pushed her away and stood up: "One is your adoptive father, and the other is a supporter in your family. You are not afraid that the matter will be exposed, and you will rarely end well?"

"With His Highness here, I think this will never happen."

Cui Ying reached out and hooked his hanging finger and shook it, as if they were the most intimate existence at this moment.

Chu Yan shook off her hand and left the room.

"Why are you angry again?"

Although Chu Yan's expression only went back and forth once or twice, Cui Ying could also find that after she said that, he seemed to be angry again. The girl lay down in annoyance. How could a grown man have a more awkward temperament than the girl's?
It’s so hard to coax!

After Chu Yan came out, he looked at the sky outside, with dark and unclear emotions in his eyes.

I had no choice but to ask Shang Chengchong to go to the jade mine together. We had agreed last night that we would come here to have a look. After all, his name was for the purpose of doing field inspections.

Ma Chaoyang has been waiting at the jade mine for a long time. There is a mine here that is clearly in the name of their Ma family.

"I have met Your Highness. Your Highness is here to invite you."

Chu Yan nodded and indicated that the jade mining here is the best in Dashuo. It can be said that two-thirds of the jade in Dashuo comes from Yunzhou and Qingmu Town.

Ma Chaoyang said as he walked: "In the past two years, Yunzhou was hit by floods, which destroyed many places. Even several mines were buried. It was only in the past two years that they were dug out again. It's just that the jade The output is greatly reduced.”

There was some helplessness and regret in his words. After he finished speaking, he looked up at Chu Yan. Seeing that there was no expression on his face, he continued: "So in the past two years, the things submitted to the court have been reduced by 20%."

Listening to Ma Chaoyang's probing words, Chu Yan did not respond. Wherever his eyes went, jade stones of various colors were put into baskets and then carried out.

Suddenly, a dirty kid about ten years old rushed out and was about to bump into Chu Yan. Cheng Chong stopped him with the hilt of his sword. He fell to the ground and looked at Chu Yan with only a pair of big black eyes. Looking at Chu Yan.

"Why don't you drag him away quickly? He bumped into His Highness, so be careful about your life."

Ma Chaoyang scolded, and someone came up to pull the child away.

After scolding him, Ma Chaoyang turned to Chu Yan and explained: "This is a slave from the mine. I have disturbed His Highness. Please forgive me."

"Chengchong."

Chu Yan glanced at Ma Chaoyang, and then shouted something. Cheng Chong nodded and took a few steps forward. The two people holding the child saw the look in his eyes and silently let go.

"Even slaves should be treated kindly. Such a kind-hearted person would never see such a thing."

The man curled his lips and smiled. What he said made Cheng Chong's expression a little tense. When did His Highness learn to speak ironically?

Ma Chaoyang was also stunned and seemed to be a little unresponsive. He should have just said that, right? Your Highness said he was the kindest person?

The official who was killed in the government office and the veteran who was so frightened by him in Shangjing that he was bedridden for more than a month should be just rumors.
However, Ma Chaoyang reacted quickly and agreed: "Yes, yes, your highness is really a kind-hearted person with a compassionate heart. It's the common people who made the mistake."

After that, he waved to the two people: "Why don't you go and change this child's clothes? What will you do if he's cold?"

The two of them looked at Cheng Chong and then at Ma Chaoyang, then stepped forward and pulled the child over, picked him up and ran away.

Chu Yan turned his head and glanced at Ma Chaoyang. There was so much meaning in his eyes, but it was a pity that Ma Chaoyang didn't understand it.

"Okay, it's time to get down to business."

Hearing that he got to the point, Ma Chaoyang waved his hand behind his back, and someone immediately went to prepare.

After a while, someone came up with the list of miners and account books and handed them to Chu Yan.

Ma Chaoyang stood aside and said: "There are a total of seven jade mines in Qingmu Town. Two are owned by ordinary people, one is owned by others, and the remaining four are owned by the imperial court."

"But they are all handed over to the people. The taxes are paid on time every year according to the imperial regulations. The number of transactions is here. Please take a look at it."

There was no panic on his face, but he was very confident. I don't know how many people have read this account book over the years, and they can't find anything wrong. Although Cui Ying said that His Royal Highness came to pay taxes to Yunzhou, Ma Chaoyang Didn't let down his guard.

Especially when dealing with a smart person like His Royal Highness, you need to be more cautious.

　Chu Yan: Such a kind person.

　　Killed officials and veterans: The coffin boards can no longer hold them.
