Chapter 484 Fulfillment

Yongle Bo said with a smile: "I have a young lady in my family who is beautiful, smart, and has a generous dowry. Her rules and etiquette are among the best in the capital. The old minister felt happy when he saw His Highness, so he shamelessly came to visit you. , I want to explore His Highness’s thoughts, do you have this honor?”

Zhong Lizhou frowned: "I have only been in Beijing for two days, and people in the capital don't know much about it. If Yongle Bo is really sincere, he might as well ask the emperor's grandfather first before coming back."

Zhang Juzheng also frowned and looked at Yongle Bo with some displeasure.

It had only been two days since the prince came to Beijing, and these people rushed over to see the young lady at home. They simply didn't take the prince and princess seriously.

How could anyone bypass the elders and go directly to the person involved to talk about this matter?

"A manly man, as long as you like it, everything else is trivial! As long as the Crown Prince nods, I will naturally go to the palace immediately to explain the situation to His Majesty, how about it?"

Yonglebo chased after him, as if he didn't understand rejection at all.

The smile on Zhong Lizhou's face also faded: "Not very good."

Yonglebo's face froze: "What do you mean by this, Your Majesty?"

"What do you think?"

Zhong Lizhou watched Yong Lebo's expression change with interest, and finally said with a forced smile: "Old minister, I know it's a bit sudden. In this case, why not give the prince some time to think about it. It's getting late today. I'll do it another day." Come to the door."

Zhong Lizhou put down his tea cup: "Walk slowly."

Zhang Juzheng watched Yongle Bo leave and said in a deep voice: "I wonder if the prince has any arrangements for his marriage? Before coming here, the princess specially told him to let me pay attention to it."

Zhong Lizhou looked at him with a smile: "Oh? Did my mother specifically mention it to Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Juzheng couldn't figure out what his tone meant, so he raised his head cautiously and said, "Yes, what the empress means is that maybe Your Highness can consider my daughter? After all, she is a person who knows everything..."

"Master Zhang!"

Zhong Lizhou didn't let Zhang Juzheng continue: "I have my own plans for my marriage. My daughter is lively, cheerful and straightforward, but she is not within the scope of my consideration. There are many good men in the world. Master Zhang still has to take a broader view." .”

This obvious rejection made Zhang Juzheng sigh in his heart.

Sure enough!

"It's my presumption. Since His Highness already has a plan in mind, I won't interfere anymore, but I still have to pay attention. I'm afraid these princes are not well-intentioned!"

Knowing this result, Zhang Juzheng gave up and reminded Zhong Lizhou with all his heart.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang. I know it well."

Zhang Juzheng left the study with heavy steps, thinking about how to explain it clearly to his daughter.

Zhong Lizhou called General Yang: "I asked you to investigate the Lai family, have you found it?"

Yang Shenjiang nodded: "I found it! The Lai family only changed from a poor man to a well-off small family in Beijing after His Majesty came to the throne. There are no particularly outstanding people in the Lai family. To say there is anything special... ··There is one."

"Who?"

"The queen's chief steward, Aunt Lai."

A figure flashed in Zhong Lizhou's mind. He looked at General Yang in surprise: "Are you sure it's Aunt Lai?"

"My subordinates have confirmed that it is Aunt Lai!"

Zhong Lizhou felt a little incredible.

Aunt Lai had followed the Empress before she entered the palace. The relationship between the two was extraordinary, but now that the Lai family could commit any crime and the emperor exiled the whole family, the Empress did not stop her.

"Why were you exiled?"

No matter how he thought about it, Zhong Lizhou felt that this incident was somewhat unusual.

"It is said that it was because Grandma Lai had behaved inappropriately in front of the palace, offended Long Yan, and was disrespectful to the Queen. The emperor was so angry that he sentenced the nine members of the Lai family to tattoos, reduced them to a lowly status, and were exiled to the southwest. Because the Lai family There are no great people, so there is no one to help and plead for mercy, and the Criminal Investigation Department acted very quickly, but in just two days, the Lai family became what it is now."

"What about Aunt Lai? Why don't you see anyone among the exiled people?"

General Yang Shen looked troubled: "Aunt Lai is in the palace. It's hard to find out the news inside. My subordinates haven't found out yet."

Zhong Lizhou frowned and waved him off.

The emperor obviously hated the Lai family.

But what could the Lai family do to make the emperor so angry?

Ah Ying obviously knew, but he had already asked at that time, why didn't he tell her?

Could it be that it’s too involved to open your mouth? Or...is it related to him?

In the post house.

Gongyehong was preparing to enter the palace tomorrow to say goodbye to Emperor Mingde, and then set off back to Beiyan.

Luo Chengwu and the others were all packing their things when a guard from outside hurried in: "Your Highness! General! Good news!"

When Luo Chengwu saw this personal guard running in dressed in snow, he couldn't help but scolded: "How unbecoming! You haven't cleaned yourself up before I come to see His Highness!"

The guard's next words made them have no other thoughts: "Tudou! I saw Tudou today! There is news about Tudou!"

Luo Chengwu, who was still a few meters away, arrived in front of the bodyguard almost instantly: "What did you say? Did you see it? Where is it?!"

"It's in the White Crane Tower! It was said by Princess Hehua's clan members. I thought I had heard something wrong at the time, so I tried my best to break the bag. As a result, a lot of red and yellow oval-shaped things fell out. They said it was potatoes!"

Luo Chengwu excitedly patted the guard on the shoulder: "Okay! You have made a great contribution! You deserve a reward! Your Highness?"

Gong Yehong suppressed the excitement in his heart: "Go and call Da Sinong! Wait for you to tell the complete story."

When Da Sinong arrived, he listened to what the guards had seen and described the potatoes. He walked around the room excitedly: "That's right! That's absolutely right! It's exactly the same as what the Taoist priest said!"

Luo Chengwu no longer thought that he was an old magician now: "Hahaha! When I saw that Taoist priest, he looked like an immortal, how could he lie to others!"

"My subordinates saw with their own eyes that they brought something upstairs. It is said that it is a specialty from Princess Hehua's hometown and was specially sent to Princess Hehua."

The guard was very happy and eagerly told everyone the news he had heard.

"The specialty of Princess Hehua's hometown? Her hometown seems to be from Liangzhou."

"We are now sending people to Liangzhou to inquire about the news. It is obviously too late because of the long distance."

"I'll go directly to your door and ask!"

While the two were discussing, Gongyehong chewed Wuyouzi's words in his heart over and over again: "He who saves flowers can save the country... Is it possible that he should be here?"

Luo Chengwu's eyes widened: "Could it be that..."

"Princess Hehua!"

Da Sinong did not hesitate.
