Chapter 49 Unbearable

Everyone looked straight at His Highness the King of Chu, but Rong Zhen drank wine on his own, as if he didn't see the lively beauty in front of him.

Su Yidai'er's originally confident expression suddenly froze, the gorgeous flower fell from her fingers, and the momentary silence in the hall could hear the needle drop.

Su Yiyunge hurriedly said: "Xiao Wang admires the culture of the Central Plains, and wishes that the two countries will become good friends of Qin and Jin. His Royal Highness Chu Wang is full of heroism, and Dai'er can be said to be a man of talent and beauty, and they are very suitable."

Rong Zhen's wine glass was placed on the table with a "smack", and he raised his head and said, "It seems that the king did not agree?"

Being rejected so mercilessly, Dai'er's face suddenly turned pale, and her delicate body was on the verge of falling.

In this embarrassing atmosphere, Emperor Yongning spoke out and said: "Your Highness Sixth Prince, although marriage is a good thing to have two surnames, it is a beautiful thing to be happy with each other after all. We will not be that troublesome matchmaker. They figured it out on their own."

Su Yiyunge's originally angry expression slowly calmed down, and she reluctantly replied: "What your majesty said is that Xiao Wang's thinking is too simple."

"Come, come, drink, play music!"

Su Yidai looked at Rong Zhen steadfastly, but he only frowned, and asked with some displeasure: "Is there anything else the princess wants?"

"His Royal Highness Chu, this princess will definitely let you marry me willingly!" After Su Yidai finished speaking, she turned her head and left.

Rong Zhen's expression didn't change a bit, but his gaze casually passed over the crowd, and then the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

This scene happened to be seen by Jian Yu who was standing behind the curtain. He followed Rong Zhen's gaze and saw Lu Zheng's expression being fanned by Yu Jiu's hot wind. He seemed to think of something, his face changed, and his hands gradually Clenched into a fist.

After that day, Princess Dai'er seemed to have her eye on Rong Zhen, as long as Rong Zhen appeared, she would come upon hearing the news.Daxia is open to the people, and does not reject this kind of scene where women chase men, and even Tang Kou placed a bet on whether Princess Dai'er can win the King of Chu.

No matter how good-tempered Rong Zhen was, he would probably be annoyed by the constant pursuit and interception, not to mention that he was not originally a kind-hearted person.So once again being blocked in the imperial garden, Rong Zhen's voice was also tinged with anger: "Your Highness, I thought I had already made my words very clear that day."

Dai'er was still wearing Beijiang's costume, her blond hair was tied on top of her head with a gem-encrusted crown, which made her look even more exquisite, and her pair of green eyes stared boldly at Rong Zhen: "King Chu, don't you have a saying in the Central Plains called 'Women chasing men'? But I've been chasing you for so long, but I only feel that the distance between us is as insurmountable as the Gelland Mountains."

Rong Zhen was not moved at all: "Since the princess understands, don't waste your efforts in vain."

Dai'er took a step forward: "If a man doesn't like me, then he is either a saint or he likes men. Your Highness, King Chu, which one are you?" Her words were arrogant, but not annoying , On the contrary, it has a bit of touching style.

Rong Zhen smiled lightly: "Your Highness, you and I know why you came to Daxia. If this is the case, it is better for you not to challenge the king's bottom line too much."

After finishing speaking, Rong Zhen walked past her and left, but Dai'er followed him unwillingly: "His Royal Highness, you will regret it."

"I will wait and see." Rong Zhen didn't turn his head.

Dai'er stomped her feet resentfully on the spot, and the maid at the side looked slightly terrified, lowered her voice and said to Dai'er: "Princess, if you still don't follow, if..."

Dai'er glared at her: "I know, nothing bad will happen."

"That's fine."

Dai'er gritted her teeth, looked resentfully at the maid with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and then at Rong Zhen who was walking away in front of her, and hurriedly chased after her with her skirt in hand.

Rong Zhen got into the carriage, and as soon as he entered, he saw a golden fan spread out in front of him, and a voice squeezed his throat and said, "His Royal Highness, this princess will definitely let you marry me willingly~"

Rongzhen punched him directly, but Song Zhiyi seemed to be a prophet, he just rolled on the spot, spread his fan again, and said with a smile: "Cousin, you don't feel sorry for such a beautiful woman, God will definitely come down!" Lightning strikes you."

"Before I was struck by lightning, I must have struck you first." Rong Zhen got into the carriage and said calmly, "Go and find out, what are the plans of the Jie people?"

"No way, with such a beautiful blessing, you only saw conspiracy." Song Zhiyi couldn't believe it.

"I don't think an arrogant woman can act as if nothing happened after being rejected so harshly. If something goes wrong, it will be a monster. There is no harm in being cautious."

"Don't you believe that it was your charm that overwhelmed that Princess Dai?"

Rong Zhen glanced at him: "I'm not gold."

Song Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, before realizing that Rong Zhen was joking, he rubbed his arms: "Cousin, next time, don't make jokes, it's too cold."

Rong Zhen ignored him, and continued: "I have been investigating the old people in my mother's palace before, but now that I think about it, it is not necessary to limit the scope to this. Princess Shanyang was very popular with the first queen mother, and she was even pregnant. Since they often enter the palace, she will definitely hear about those old things."

"Princess Shanyang?"

Rong Zhen told Song Zhiyi about Ge Hui asking Lu Zheng for help to solve the case: "There must be something behind this case, you go and find out."

Song Zhiyi frowned and said, "It's just a concubine, so what if Princess Shanyang kills her, how can she be used as a handle?"

"If it was really Shanyang who killed her, how could she not admit it with her temperament, she is so secretive, I'm afraid the things she concealed are not small."

"Okay, I'll check." Song Zhiyi paused before saying, "There is one more thing."

"Say."

"The young master really knows the commander of the Chijiawei." Song Zhiyi said, "And, I found out that Jian Yu's biological mother is the sixth lady of the Gao family."

"The Gao family?" Rong Zhen frowned, "Wei Wang's fiancée?"

"Yes." Song Zhiyi said, "But she has passed away, otherwise maybe she would know the inside story." He hesitated for a while, "Do you still need to continue to pay attention to Jian Yu?"

Rong Zhen shook his head: "Don't make any further complications, let's call it a day."

"Yes."

Rong Zhen was silent for a while, and then said casually: "But the guards protecting Lu Zheng don't withdraw for now, we will talk about it after a while."

"Oh~"

"If you're so eccentric again, don't blame me for kicking you off the carriage."

Lu Zheng didn't know that there were more protectors behind him, and Jian Yu didn't intend to tell him that the two were now in Shilipo outside Beicheng.

It was rare for You Xiaowu to tidy up the room, there was even a couplet pasted on the door, Tie Dan poured water out of two notched bowls, and placed it in front of Lu Zheng and Jian Yu.

You Xiaowu lazily said: "Don't be too busy, they don't drink." Then he looked at Lu Zheng with a smile, "This month's news has already been delivered, the two of you came here in person, but I don't know the little one What can help?"

Lu Zheng said: "I wonder if you can find out the news about the Princess Mansion?"

"Princess Mansion?" You Xiaowu got up, a pair of small eyes flashed brightly, "I don't know which princess it is?"

"It's Princess Shanyang."

"This one..." You Xiaowu dragged on.

Lu Zheng put a 100 tael bank note in front of him: "How?"

You Xiaowu's eyes lit up, but he quickly shook his head again: "Princess Shanyang is not someone to be trifled with, the princess's family is too high, and the little ones can't climb high." It is a fixed account every five taels a month. Although Tie Dan is a bit troubled by controlling the money and not allowing him to spend it randomly, he can live in peace anyway.

Lu Zheng took out another 100 taels of silver note: "This is just a deposit, if I can find out anything, I will give you this amount." He compared it to five.

You Xiaowu's eyes were straightened. If this vote is successful, he can go back to the countryside directly to retire.

Lu Zheng saw his vacillation, and added fire: "I didn't ask you to investigate Princess Shanyang, but her only son, Ge Hui, the concubine who died half a year ago."

You Xiaowu's eyes were almost glued to the bank note, and when he heard him say this, he swallowed: "Really...really only want to check the concubine's room?"

"Correct."

You Xiaowu glanced at Tie Dan, who was wiping the table, and said bluntly, "No answer."

You Xiaowu became anxious immediately, jumped up and said, "Why didn't you answer?!"

Tie Dan stopped, looked at Lu Zheng and said, "There are many capable people in Yanjing City, we two punks, it's okay to check the news in the market, we can't do anything about such a wealthy family."

You Xiaowu also calmed down from the shock of money, and wiped his forehead: "Tie Dan is right, the villain really has nothing to do."

Lu Zheng's heart sank, and he didn't even answer You Xiaowu. Could it be that the truth of this case is really going to be buried deep underground?

At this moment, Jian Yu who was on the side suddenly said, "We don't seek truth or falsehood, and we don't care what you can find out. As long as you are willing to accept it, I will pay the money."

Such a temptation is not small, You Xiaowu glanced at Tie Dan again, ignoring Tie Dan's eyes of refusal, he couldn't hold back the temptation of money in the end, and confirmed again: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, and it doesn't matter what we find out? "

Jane Yu nodded.

"Okay! I'll take it!" You Xiaowu took the two silver bills in as soon as he copied his hands, threw the rag in a rage, and walked out.

You Xiaowu glanced at his back, and then said to Lu Zheng: "I'm not sure when the news will come out, don't worry."

"This is natural." Lu Zheng nodded, he could understand how unattainable the royal family is to these small people, especially the royal family with certain power like Princess Shanyang, not to mention how much Shanyang is about this matter Keeping the secrets secret, You Xiaowu agreed to do so at the risk of taking risks. He warned, "The news is secondary, your safety is the most important thing."

You Xiaowu's slick expression froze for a moment, and then he wiped his face: "With your words, this villain's trip is worth it."
