Chapter 232 Looking for trouble
"Cousin, is this going to pay off the debt?"

Luo Jingnian nodded very positively.

But why does this feel a little wrong?Obviously at the beginning he put on a gesture of helping this girl, but in a blink of an eye, he became a debtor and still needs to pay with flesh?Well, he was still a little happy if he paid for it, but in a blink of an eye he became a debtor, and this change of status made him really unwilling.

Seeing him nodding his head, Qin Zhao laughed: "Cousin, remember, you are mine now. As my cousin said, you are very valuable. If I release it, I will sell the Luo family." My cousin, help me think about it, what is the right price to sell? Don’t worry, we have nothing to do with each other. Although money is important, I will definitely find you a good one for the sake of us being cousins. People's."

The two were arguing, when Zisu reported outside: "Princess, Manager Li asked the servants to come over and invite the princess to the front yard, saying that there is a visitor from Xishan Huangzhuang."

Qin Zhao frowned.

Luo Jingnian saw it in his eyes, and said: "Isn't Xishan Huangzhuang the property of King Wei? Even if it is the Zhuangzi of King Wei's mansion, it is just a man from the farm, and it is worthwhile for Li Dalai to invite you to receive him in person?"

Qin Zhao was silent for a while, and said: "There are some things here, go and have a look first, and I will talk to you in detail when I come back."

Looking at her appearance, Luo Jingnian already knew it in his heart.

If it's just an ordinary relationship, then Manager Li seems to be reliable in his work, so he will definitely not let anyone come to invite Qin Zhao.Since you are here to invite, there must be something going on.

Luo Jingnian jumped off the couch: "Come on, I'll go and have a look with you."

The two went to the front yard, and the servant who was guarding the porch rushed into the hall to report.

Qin Zhao and Luo Jingnian entered hand in hand.

The steward of the Huangzhuang was also taken aback when he saw two distinguished young men, one big and one small, who were clearly well-dressed and elegant.

This place is obviously the Zhuangzi of Princess Fuling, how could there be two noble sons there?
Seeing the dazed expression on the Huangzhuang steward's face, Li Da smiled inwardly, and greeted Qin Zhao and Luo Jingnian first, then Fang Chao Huangzhuang steward introduced him: "Senior steward, this noble man , is the princess of Fuling, this is the young prince of the Duke of Yue's mansion."

Qin Zhao glanced sideways at the steward, then turned to Li Da, and said in a very unhappy tone, "Who is this?"

Li Dacai was about to speak, but the steward came forward with a smile, and made a song to Qin Zhao, and said with a smile: "The villain is the chief steward of Wei Wangfu's farm, Cui Yifu, passing by the princess's farm today, thinking of talking to Li The chief steward and the villain used to work together, and we haven't seen each other for a long time, so we came to see the chief steward Li, not wanting to disturb the princess."

Qin Zhao stared at Cui Yifu for a while, and Fang smiled coldly: "So, Mr. Cui is a caring person. When Mr. Li came to my small farm, you don't look down on him, and you have the heart to visit him. After a few times, you will think highly of Li Da, and you will also think highly of me as the master. With your character, you will be wronged if you become a manager of the farm. I will sell your face later and send a post to Wei Wangfu Go, I think the King of Wei is willing to support you for the sake of the Palace. Even if the King of Wei is not willing, it’s okay. With the face of us standing shoulder to shoulder with the Palace, do you want someone to come? If I ask from the King of Wei If I want you to come and be my slave, I think Uncle Wei Wang will not be reluctant. Cui Yifu, what do you think?"

When Cui Yifu heard that she was going to send a letter to the Wei Palace, he was already in a cold sweat.It was already slightly cold in August, but he raised his sleeves to wipe his sweat and tremblingly said: "Little man, the villain is just an insignificant slave, how can he dare to work for the princess to personally meet the king of Wei? Today is a lucky day." To be able to meet the nobleman is already the luck of the villain, the villain..."

There was a prayer in the voice.

Qin Zhao did not soften his heart at all, and said with a sneer, "You don't have to be self-effacing, Chief Cui. You are a majestic steward. I, Chief Li, feel that I am not qualified enough to receive you. Didn't you invite me to see you in person? It can be seen You are usually decent in Wei Wangfu. You are too self-effacing when you call yourself a servant, Cui Daguan. But I was rude just now. You are the majestic steward of Weiwangfu Huangzhuang, how can you think of me as a little girl Princess Shiyi, I am too overwhelmed."

The word "overestimate one's strength" is very heavy.

Cui Yifu was already terrified when he heard it, and knelt down with a plop: "The villain deserves to die. I offended the princess, and I hope the princess will forgive me."

Qin Zhao's mouth curled up into a sweet smile: "It turns out that Cui Yifu, you are not impolite. But don't you think it's too late to kneel now?"

The Kingdom of David has a strict hierarchy, and a manager of the Huangzhuang sounds nice, but in fact he is a servant who is not even as good as a good citizen. When he saw her, the princess, he should have knelt down long ago.Until this time Cui Yifu knelt down. This Cui Yifu has been in charge of Huangzhuang for a long time, and he has a solid foundation.

After all, what Huangzhuang is in charge of, the Huangzhuang in Xishan now belongs to Wei Wangfu.

And she, Qin Zhao, is not yet married. Speaking of which, although her Zhuangzi is her personal property, if she is not married, it is considered to be the property of the royal family.Even if Wei Wang's mansion is the son of the empress of the Yuan Dynasty, he has a noble status, but he is no more noble than going to the king's mansion.How many people can get the three words "Shoulder to Shoulder King" from ancient to modern times?It can even be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to stand shoulder to shoulder with the prince's mansion above all the prince's mansions.

Cui Yifu didn't kneel down when he saw her. To put it bluntly, he just didn't like her status as the so-called princess.

Or maybe it was meant to anger her.

There is also temptation in it.

Just look at how she reacts.

It's just that Cui Yifu didn't expect that under the banner of Huangzhuang or Wei Wangfu, not only did he fail to make the princess succumb, but he didn't even have the intention of looking at him differently.He directly said that he would send a post to Wei Wangfu, and even planned to ask him from Wei Wangfu to deal with it himself.

If she really does this, no matter it is for the sake of the side-by-side Prince Qin, or the eldest princess Jinyang, King Wei will not refuse.

The point is not this, the point is that if the King of Wei knew that he was coming to the farm of the princess of Fuling...even if he was not sent to Fuling, he would have executed him himself.

How could Cui Yifu not be afraid?
It's not that he has never heard of the fact that the princess of Fuling broke the arm of the farm manager of the Duke of E's mansion, and made the Duke of E's mansion pay 5000 taels of silver. Even in that incident, there were reasons why he provoked it.

But Fuling was only 11 years old at the time, and he only thought it was a coincidence, and the Duke of E's mansion had gone from bad to worse over the years, so he bowed his head in front of the side-by-side prince's mansion. He really never thought about it. Sure enough, he was so determined at such a young age.

She could actually see that his coming to the farm was not actually ordered by Prince Wei's residence?Or, this is because the girl is too arrogant, thinking that even if it is ordered by Wei Wangfu, and she has the side-by-side Wangfu as the backstage, Wei Wangfu can't bully her?
"The princess has mercy, the princess has mercy."

Cui Yifu didn't dare to say anything at this time, and couldn't say anything.I can only beg for mercy.

Until this time, Luo Jingnian, who had been silent all this time, opened his mouth: "Go back and tell your master, no matter what he wants to do, Princess Fuling is not a good touchstone. If something happens to her, unless there is no other prince in this world, Duke of Yue and Duke of Lu. Do you understand?"

As soon as these words came out, Cui Yifu didn't even dare to beg for mercy.The whole person collapsed directly on the ground.

It turned out that the maintenance and love of those families for the princess were all true.Otherwise, the little father-in-law of the Luo family would never say such a thing.Moreover, this little prince is not an ordinary person, he is the emperor's valet, His Majesty's most trusted entourage.If what happened today reaches His Majesty's ears...

Cui Yifu really didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing Cui Yifu lying on the ground as if paralyzed, Luo Jinghua snorted, and then said calmly: "Get lost."

How could Cui Yifu still stand up?Li Da called someone to help him out of the hospital.

Luo Jingnian took another look at Li Da.Li Da left the room silently, let the servants leave the courtyard, and guarded the porch himself.

In the room, Luo Jingnian said: "Listen to what you said just now, the steward of Prince Wei's mansion, didn't he come to your farm just once to find trouble?"

Qin Zhao nodded: "I came here once at the end of Qin and early summer. It seemed that I was very interested in the greenhouse on the farm. I didn't take it seriously."

So I didn't mention it?
Luo Jingnian would not believe what she said that was not taken seriously.

If so, since Cui Yifu just came, Li Da couldn't bear her order, so how dare he invite her, the honorable princess, to meet him in person just because of a manager?And how could she force Cui Guanshi to sweat coldly with words?
Now the court is calm on the bright side.But he is the emperor's close servant, and no one knows the body of His Majesty better than him.Even the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Wei, in the past few years, their relationship has never been better than before.The King of Jin never participated in these factional struggles, and he was honestly his rich prince. If the Queen couldn't bear it, the King of Jin would have even made the idea of ​​leaving the capital and becoming a vassal.

In addition, the Chengwang that Concubine Yang gave birth to was more transparent than that of King Jin in the court.

On the contrary, His Majesty's brother, King Wu, has never been very honest even in the feudal land.

In addition, there are some powerful people, just His Majesty's cousin Zhao Wang.There is no need to worry about Zhao Wang's family.

Luo Jingnian frowned, even Ah Zhao thought that Cui Yifu was obviously not someone sent by King Wei, how could he not see it?Although the king of Wei is a little bit mad, he is by no means a brainless person, so he will be able to get through the side-by-side palace?If this is the case, King Wei's brain must have been kicked by a donkey.

The King's Mansion is the head of nobles in the capital. Without the support of the Mansion, King Wei's desire to surpass the crown prince is a matter of no thought. Want to sit still.

So it is obviously impossible for Wei Wangfu to do this.

Then who did it?
Luo Jingnian smiled and said, "Turn around and talk to Uncle Wang, ask him to send a post to Wei Wang's residence, just tell the matter."

Qin Zhao nodded.

In any case, the matter was caused by the people of Wei Wangfu, so it is natural for Wei Wang to have a headache.

Noble families like them, especially the Qin, Luo, and Chen families, have an unshakable status among the noble families, so there is really no need to covet any meritorious deeds.For the few of them, a word of stability can preserve their dignity for a hundred years.Not to mention the three of them, even the British government and a few others are also out of the question.

They just need to be loyal to His Majesty, that's all.

Luo Jingnian said again: "In the future, when things happen again, don't fight on your own. If you should go to the elders, tell them. If you don't want to disturb the elders, don't you still have me?"

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "I know, I told my grandfather about it, and my grandfather said that I should leave it alone, and he will deal with it."

Luo Jingnian then nodded.However, I felt a little uncomfortable. After thinking for a while, I said, "In the future, if you have something to do, just tell me. Grandpa Chen and grandfather are old after all. Don't bother them with small things."

Qin Zhao said "Got it", and called Li Dajin to talk about the business.

Li Da was very nervous when he heard that His Majesty was coming to the farm.

You must know that he is just a small farm manager, how could he have thought that one day he would be lucky enough to receive the holy driver?
Qin Zhao said with a smile: "You don't need to be nervous. There is no need to make public about this matter. Let's just clean up the villa. Your Majesty is here to see the sweet potato. You can sort out the people later. Make sure The farmer who harvested the sweet potato that day should be a trustworthy person. You don’t need to be deliberate about other things, just follow the usual way and do what you need to do.”

After thinking for a while, Qin Zhao said again: "Looking back at the rice, it's okay to dry it for a few more days. Your Majesty is diligent in government and loves the people. If you see that not only the rice has been planted on our farm, but also a bumper harvest, you will be happier. I can't tell. His Majesty is happy to reward you with an official position in Sinong Temple, maybe."

Li Da was not nervous when she said this, but he laughed instead: "Official position is not something that a villain dares to think about, if a villain can handle his errands to his satisfaction, and does not embarrass the princess, it is a villain's dignity. "

Qin Zhao said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the mansion. If you need anything, I will send someone to find you to purchase. For the arrangement, it is enough if you have an aunt next to you. I also brought some people to help you in the palace. My task is to organize the farmland in the village in the past two days, so that it doesn’t look bad. Although His Majesty came here for sweet potatoes, no one can guarantee that His Majesty will not go to other places. Looking around, the greenhouse is nothing, but Li Huaida's cooking is meticulous, but there are various breeding factories, and you have people cleaned them up."

Li Dao: "The villain will do it when he turns back. In fact, the breeding factory is usually clean according to the requirements of the princess. The villain is thinking, Your Majesty will come to inspect the farm. Our farm is at least forty or fifty miles away from the city. Well, I will probably stay in the manor for dinner at that time. Since the princess said that there is no need to show it, the furniture on our farm is actually a bit old, so it is better to eat in the greenhouse. There is a newly-built greenhouse, which is very spacious , the beans inside were also planted early, and it’s time for flowering, and the temperature inside is not too cold, if you put your lunch in the greenhouse, wouldn’t it be more wild?”

That's a great idea.

Qin Zhao clapped his hands: "Just do as you said, and I will ask Li Huaida to take me to have a look later."

Li Da called Li Huaida and Pond's again.

Several people discussed and assigned the work one by one. Li Da was in charge of cleaning up the farmland and breeding plants on the farm, Pond's was in charge of cleaning the yard, and Li Huaida was going to tidy up all kinds of greenhouses.After talking about things, they went to work separately.

Luo Jingnian and Qin Zhao followed Li Huaida to see the greenhouse.

It’s also a coincidence that other warm sheds leave a dozen or so square meters at the head of the shed for homework, but the kind of shed full of beans leaves open spaces at both ends and in the middle, because this kind of warm shed is the largest. , It is designed in this way for the convenience of picking.

Qin Zhao said with a smile: "If it's only at the exit, it's meaningless. It's good to leave it in the middle. There are green cardamoms on both sides. While drinking and eating, you can also look at the green leaves and small flowers. Isn't it very interesting to farm? This is August, and I don’t realize it. If it’s really the twelfth lunar month, this warm shed would be an excellent place to go. Let me tell you, Grandpa Luo told me to finish my work and go to the farm with his old man. I thought it would be better to come to my farm. Although the scenery is not as good as that of Grandpa Luo’s, it is worse than a hidden cave, and it is a good place to go in winter.”

After hearing this, Luo Jingnian couldn't help but feel his heart move.

The old man also asked him to take a ten-year vacation before the new year, and accompany him to live in the farm for a while.

Say the same to the little girl now.

Wouldn't it be possible to spend some time with this girl by then?

Did the old man do it on purpose?Do you intend to get along with him and the little girl?
The two families originally favored him and Chang Ning. Although he had no affection for Chang Ning, and he knew that Chang Ning was the same, but if he really wanted to reject this marriage, it would not be easy.After all, the reason why he acquiesced in the past few years is also clear in Chang Ning's heart. He is the only one who knows about the matter between Chang Ning and that boy. He knew it well, so naturally he wouldn't hold him back. When the time came to discuss the marriage, even if he didn't object, Chang Ning would not easily agree.

But after all, he regards Chang Ning as his sister and is willing to protect her, so naturally he will not put all the matter of how to make the marriage fail on Chang Ning alone, so he must take the initiative.

What he was worried about was the relationship between the two families.

If the old man is optimistic about this girl, A Zhao, and wants to fulfill her wish, things will be much easier.

Thinking of this, Luo Jingnian was in a good mood.

This warm shed looked really good. Luo Jingnian walked around with a smile, and even patted Li Huaida's shoulder very affectionately: "Guan Shi Li is quite capable. Ah Zhao doesn't need you anymore, you can just go to me, I can't talk about being rich and famous, but if I give you a good future, I can do it."

In the final analysis, although Qin Zhao is a princess, she is a woman after all. What she can give to Li Huaida is naturally incomparable to what Luo Jingnian can give.

After listening to Luo Jingnian's words, Li Huaida was also a little happy, but also a little baffled, why did Young Master Luo suddenly want to support him?How did he know that Young Master Luo was in a good mood because he was expected to marry a wife, and everything he saw at the moment was pleasing to the eye, and there was a meaning of loving the house and the black in it.

However, he is a calm person, so he just smiled and said: "It is a blessing that Xiaomin can't think of to be able to win the eyes of the young man, but Xiaomin doesn't have any skills, but he can make some shed cloth, and it is also because Because the princess trusts the villain, Xiaomin is given the job of the warm shed. Xiaomin dare not think about anything else, and only hopes that he can do the princess's job well, which is Xiaomin's blessing. Xiaogong Xiaomin is very grateful for the kindness of the Lord."

Luo Jingnian raised his eyebrows, thinking that Li Huaida looked young, but it was a bit of a deal, and he didn't turn to hug his thigh just because of his words.

On the contrary, Qin Zhao was really happy for Li Huaida, and said with a smile: "Cousin never talks empty words, since he promised, he must have really liked you, so you don't have to be too self-effacing. I see you acting these days, and I also think you He's a good person. It's better to follow my cousin than to do things for me. It's nothing for you, but you always have to think about Xiaoqiu. The girl's family background will have a great impact on future marriages. Just don't say Xiaoqiu Qiu, my maidservants, it’s not useless to marry. When the work on the greenhouse is over and you can accompany someone who can take over your job, I’ll let you go out.”

Li Huaida was overjoyed, not only because of Luo Jingnian's fancy, but also because Qin Zhao was willing to fulfill it, but because of her sentence "My maids will not marry useless people."
