After listening to the old lady's words, Sheng Hong thought it would be best to find out first.

So I didn't tell anyone else.

After all, if Zhao Ceying had bad character, he would never be able to marry Mo Lan into such a family.

In this case, there is no need to make a fuss known to everyone in the Sheng family.

Bianjing is not far from Yuzhou.

The people sent to inquire about the news came back within a few days.

He informed Sheng Hong of the inquiring information. As he listened, Sheng Hong felt that this person had been bribed by the other party.

Can there be such a good young man in this world?

Apart from being a bit older than Mo'er, it's not a problem.

Men are older and more mature mentally.

What made Sheng Hong hesitate was that Brother Zhao didn't even have a roommate by his side!

This servant paid money to find out.

There is no intercourse, no concubines, and she is still unmarried at the age of eighteen or nineteen.

Is this... is there some hidden illness in the body?

When Sheng Hong thought of this, he was unhappy.

There was no way he would let Mo Lan marry and remain a widow!

Other than that, there's nothing wrong with it.

The servants said that this son of Zhao Tuanlian was clean and well-behaved, and that he had not been contaminated by the habits of a playboy at all.

Moreover, the Zhao family and his son had an excellent reputation in Yuzhou. Zhao Tuanlian was devoted to farming and wanted to feed the people of Yuzhou.

Zhao Ceying, on the other hand, focused on training troops and defending Yuzhou.

And I haven’t heard any rumors about licentiousness. Anyway, people in Yuzhou are full of praises when it comes to it.

Sheng Hong hesitated.

On the one hand, I think Zhao Ceying seems to be pretty good.

On the other hand, I feel that this man seems to be suffering from a hidden disease. He can't push his daughter into a pit of fire, right?

It happened that the old lady had been paying attention to this matter. When she knew that the person Sheng Hong sent to inquire about the news had returned, she sent someone to invite Sheng Hong.

When Sheng Hong arrived, his face was still full of solemnity.

When the old lady saw his unhappy expression, her heart skipped a beat.

"What's wrong with Brother Zhao?"

Fang’s mother also looked strange.

Although the old lady has never seen him before, she has seen that Zhao Ceying.

The young man looked upright, and he was willing to hunt down the bandits for so long, which showed that he was an upright person.

This kind of person should be no different.

Sheng Hong nodded hesitantly, then shook his head.

"He is a good person. He has good conduct and has been both civil and military since he was a child. He is a good person. People in Yuzhou always praise him when he mentions him."

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then what are you dissatisfied with?"

Sheng Hong said with some melancholy: "But he... seems to be suffering from a hidden disease."

"Suffering from a hidden illness?!"

The old lady's eyes widened in shock.

"Correct."

Sheng Hong paused and was very unhappy: "He has not yet married when he is eighteen or nineteen years old, and he has not taken concubines, let alone intercourse. He has kept himself clean, and there are no rumors of his romantic affairs in Yuzhou. Such a person is not suffering from a hidden disease. What else could it be?”

If there were no concubines and intercourse girls, Sheng Hong wouldn't think so much.

After all, there was no concubinage or intercourse in Changbai.

But the key point is that Zhao Ceying is so old and has not yet gotten married, let alone discussed marriage, which is not right.

Unexpectedly, the old lady's eyes lit up when she heard this.

She and Fang's mother looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"You keep yourself clean, maybe you belong to someone else?"

Sheng Hong frowned: "That's even worse! What's the difference between Mo Lan marrying and being a widow?!"

The old lady said leisurely: "There is something I mentioned to you once before, but you must have forgotten it."

Sheng Hong looked at her in confusion.

The old lady told her what happened three years ago again.

Sheng Hong suddenly realized when he heard that the person who saved Mo Lan was Zhao Ceying.

No wonder he felt that Zhao Ceying's name sounded familiar to him. It turned out to be so!

Wait, three years ago? !

Sheng Hong's eyes widened in surprise.

"How old was Mo Yatou three years ago?"

The old lady answered very calmly: "Three years ago, Zhao Ceying was still young and admired her at a young age. Our girl Mo is also the best among the ladies in Bianjing. What's so strange about this?"

If a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy doesn't like little girls, how can he still like someone else's married woman?

Sheng Hong was shocked.

That's right.

But he always felt weird.

"You are a scumbag, you are a scumbag!"

When he thought that someone was thinking about Mo Lan a few years ago, he became extremely angry.

The more Sheng Hong thought about it, the more he felt that what the old lady said made sense.

Zhao Ceying must have been thinking about his daughter from that side.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Mo Lan just got hairpins and he wanted to propose marriage?

It can be seen that they have been inquiring about the Sheng family!

When Sheng Hong thought about this, he felt even more unhappy.

It feels like your own cabbage is always being stared at.

The old lady was very puzzled why he was unhappy.

Having such a person is better than letting Mo Yatou marry someone else casually, right?

Sheng Hong felt extremely awkward.

On the one hand, I think what the old lady said makes sense.

On the one hand, I feel that Zhao Ceying is really hateful and a scoundrel!

Depressed, Sheng Hong went to the eldest lady's house.

When the eldest lady heard that Zhao Ceying was just an idle member of the clan, she didn't think much of it.

What do you say about this family background?

Ordinary, if you really want to count, he is a good match for Mo Lan.

After all, Mo Lan was a legitimate daughter, and she didn't really crawl out of Wang Ruofu's belly.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for those reputable families to ask for the marriage of a concubine for their eldest son.

Even if Sheng Hong is a fourth-grade official, it is unlikely.

So Mo Lan, the legitimate daughter, has a higher status, but she is not a serious legitimate daughter after all.

If it were Ru Lan, the eldest lady would definitely not agree.

But for Mo Lan to be betrothed to such a family, it was actually a good match.

Sheng Hong saw that the eldest lady had no idea, and suddenly felt angry.

I felt that the eldest lady, my aunt, was unkind and didn't like such a good child as Mo Lan, so I was instantly unhappy.

He went to Lin Qige with a straight face.

After all, this is Mo Lan's matter, and Shuang'er should be informed.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoniang directly agreed after hearing what Sheng Hong said.

He also said something that surprised Sheng Hong.

"Hong Lang, I know you feel sorry for Mo'er and want to find the best husband for Mo'er. I also feel sorry for Mo'er."

Lin Xiaoniang snuggled into Sheng Hong's arms and said softly: "I think Brother Zhao is an excellent candidate. Not only will his status as a clan member not attract anyone's attention, but it will be extremely beneficial to Hong Lang."

As soon as Sheng Hong heard this, he became interested and asked: "Why is it beneficial?"

Lin Xiaoniang said with a smile: "Brother Zhao is a son of the clan, but his family is an idle clan. He has been sent to Yuzhou by the officials to work as a regiment training envoy, and he has no real power at all. Didn't Hong Lang say before that there is now a quarrel in the court over the establishment of an heir? There was a lot of conflict. The courtiers often took sides, and Hong Lang never liked to participate in these struggles.

Perhaps Brother Zhao can be used to express his position to the officials? If Mo'er marries Brother Zhao, it will show the officials that you have no intention of taking sides and only want to be a pure minister who is loyal to the officials. In this way, others will join forces to force the official family to establish an heir, and only you, Honglang, can be a pure minister. Wouldn't it make the official family more happy? "

Sheng Hong was stunned, and his eyes lit up when he saw Lin Xiaoniang.

These reasonable words actually came from Shuang'er's mouth? !

Shuang'er still has this talent? !
