After the scheming is dressed into an innocent beauty

Seeing that Bai Jinfu's expression was different, Jing Yu keenly sensed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between him and Jiang Shuheng. It seems that something should have happened to Bai Jinfu during the days when he left the capital.

He knew that Bai Jinfu was a sensitive person, so he stood in front of Jiang Shuheng calmly, and said to Bai Jinfu in a warm voice: "Ah Fu, you go back first, we can talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say."

"Then Hou Ye, I'll take my leave first." There was an annoying ghost here, and Bai Jinfu didn't want to stay any longer, so he saluted and walked out of the yard without looking back.

As soon as Bai Jinfu left, Jiang Shuheng teased Jing Yu and said, "It is said in the capital that Marquis Ning An is an unkind and cold-faced gentleman, but it is rare to see you being so pleasant to anyone."

Jing Yu closed the study door behind his back, walked back to the desk and sat down, and said calmly, "It's different, he saved my life."

Jiang Shuheng also sat down swaggeringly, raised Erlang's legs, and patted the armrest of the chair, "With his frail body, how can he save people?"

Jing Yu glanced at Jiang Shuheng, and asked without answering, "Did you ever bully him?"

Jiang Shuheng raised his eyebrows, and snorted coldly: "Do you think that I, a mighty general, would bully a frail scholar? Why don't you say that he bullied me?"

Jing Yu took it for granted: "You also said that you are a great general. How dare Ah Fu, a commoner with no power, dare to offend you? What happened between the two of you? Ah Fu is such a good-tempered person. When I saw you just now, it was like meeting an enemy."

good temper?Jiang Shuheng almost laughed out loud, that day Bai Jinfu almost pointed at him and scolded him, so he has a good temper?

He could tell that Jing Yu was basically planning to protect his savior without thinking. Perhaps it was Bai Jinfu who was too good at pretending, which convinced Jing Yu that he was a harmless little poor man, even if he made trouble with others. If there is a contradiction, it is the fault of others.

Forget it, one of these two people is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it has nothing to do with him, and there is no evidence, even if he says it, Jing Yu may not believe it, why should he be a villain in vain.

So he shook his hands, and wrote lightly: "Actually, it's nothing. He probably thinks that you are burdened by me for such a hard job, so he sees me as unhappy."

Jing Yu thought for a while, then felt it was funny, shook his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I see."

Jiang Shuheng said: "So I came to you this time just to tell you about finding the Seventh Prince, as long as I can help you, feel free to speak up."

"No, there should be news of the Seventh Prince's whereabouts soon." Jing Yu took out a booklet from the bottom of a stack of official documents placed in a corner of the desk, got up and handed it to Jiang Shuheng, "A few days ago, I asked the concubine Shu Help to find some clues in the palace. Someone in the palace reported that the seventh prince was not lost by accident, but the emperor suspected that the seventh prince's biological mother, Mrs. Lian Shu, had an affair with the guards. The seventh prince was not born by himself. The Seventh Prince who is still in his infancy."

Jiang Shuheng opened the booklet and looked at it, and said in surprise: "There is such a thing?"

Jing Yu said slowly: "The one who went to kill the Seventh Prince was an eunuch. Mrs. Lian Shu was kind to him. He couldn't bear to do anything to a baby, so he secretly took the Seventh Prince out of the palace and handed it over to a fellow countryman outside the palace. Then he committed suicide, and soon after, Madam Lian Shu was also bestowed dead by the emperor, and since then the whereabouts of the Seventh Prince have been unknown, but he lied to the outside world that he was lost by accident."

Jiang Shuheng was originally unhappy because Bai Jinfu accused him of implicating the innocent seventh prince that day, but now that he heard the rough life experience of the seventh prince, he felt even more panicked, "How did you find out about the whereabouts of the seventh prince? "

Although it was an old case decades ago, thinking that the Seventh Prince was just a baby at that time, Jing Yu frowned unbearably, and continued: "I want to find a baby who got lost 20 years ago." It was not easy, so I could only look for clues from the eunuch who committed suicide, and finally learned from an old maid in the Leng Palace that the eunuch who committed suicide had a brother-in-law outside the palace, who was a foreign merchant. After some twists and turns, I found out When I arrived at the merchant’s hometown, I went out of Beijing this time to find the whereabouts of the merchant. But after many years, things have changed. I searched for a few days without any results, so I notified the local government to secretly search for those who meet the requirements. People, once there is news, they will report to me."

Jiang Shuheng pondered for a long time after hearing this, then suddenly clenched his fist and smashed the handrail, gritted his teeth and said, "It's better if you can't find it."

"I know what you're thinking." Jing Yu sighed softly, and said helplessly, "But if you can find another one, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not."

Jiang Shuheng sneered, "I know the emperor is suspicious, but I never thought that he could kill his own children. Tiger poison doesn't even eat its children."

Jing Yu's face changed slightly, "Speak carefully! Jiang Shuheng, do you know what you just said?"

"I've said it all, what can I do?" Jiang Shuheng clapped his hands on the armrests and stood up, looking at Jing Yu coldly, "Ning Anhou, I regard you as a friend, so I kindly remind you that he treats his closest relatives like this." , you are so loyal to him, don’t end up with a cunning rabbit and a lackey’s end.”

After finishing speaking, he pushed the door open and left the study with big strides.

The door of the study was closed, the cold wind from outside poured into the room, the candle in the lampshade on the desk flickered twice, half of Jing Yu's face was hidden in the darkness, his expression was unclear.

In the early morning of the second day, Jing Yu hadn't returned for a long time, so he should go to pay his respects to his stepmother Yang.

After paying his respects, Yang graciously asked Jing Yu to sit down, pretended to be cold and warm, and staged a scene of motherly kindness and filial piety.

After a cup of tea, Jing Yu was about to leave, but Yang suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Dalang, Dongyang Princess Palace sent an invitation card a few days ago, please go to the Princess Palace for a banquet on the seventh day of this month, because you haven't returned yet, I haven't given you an answer yet. go, what do you say?"

Jing Yu asked casually, "What's going on at the Princess's mansion? But who else is going to the banquet?"

Yang said with a smile: "What else can there be? It's nothing more than choosing a son-in-law for Princess Changle. The princess's mansion is going to hold an elegant fair, and I have invited many princes and daughters from aristocratic families. I know you have always been serious about these things." I'm not interested, but if you refuse the post personally posted by Princess Dongyang, I'm afraid you will offend the Princess Palace."

Jing Yu was doing business for Emperor Longqing, and he did many things to offend people, and he didn't care if he offended one more person, but suddenly remembered what Bai Jinfu said to him last night that he wanted to start a family first and then start a career, so he couldn't help thinking, "Okay, I If nothing else, that day will pass."

When Yang Shi heard Jing Yu agreed, her expression was rather surprised, but she quickly returned to normal, nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, then I will send someone to inform the President's Palace."

Jing Yu said again: "By the way, mother, I have one more thing I want you to pay attention to."

Yang said gently, "What's the matter, tell me."

Jing Yu said slowly: "Ah Fu, he has also reached the age of marriage. I also ask my mother to help me find out if there is a suitable girl in the capital. The family background does not need to be too high. The most important thing is to be gentle and virtuous."

Yang's slender eyebrows were slightly raised, and his face was a bit embarrassed, "But he has no family in Beijing and no fame, so I'm afraid this marriage is not easy to talk about."

Jing Yu curled his lips slightly, "I've already thought about it. After a while, I will recognize Ah Fu as my brother-in-law. If a girl from another family marries him, it will be the same as getting married to the Ning'an Marquis. With the Hou Mansion behind him, he has a family background."

Yang Shiqiang smiled and said: "You should have the heart to repay your kindness. Okay, I will help you pay attention."

Jing Yu raised his hand and saluted, "Then mother, if there is nothing else, I will leave."

Yang looked at Jing Yu benevolently, nodded, "Alright, go get busy."

Not long after Jing Yu left Yang's residence, Wang Qiaoying came out from the inner room. She had come to Yang's place a long time ago, and had been hiding in there to eavesdrop on the conversation between Jing Yu and Yang.

"Auntie, why did Lord Hou agree to go to Dongyang Princess' Mansion? Could it be that he has taken a fancy to the Princess Changle?" Wang Qiaoying looked at the direction where Jing Yu left at the door, biting her lips unwillingly, her face ready to cry.

Yang picked up the teacup next to her hand, lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "It's not impossible, the birth mother of Lord Hou was a close friend with Princess Dongyang when she was alive, and she has always favored Lord Hou." Plus, if Lord Hou is able to marry Princess Changle, then our Hou Mansion will be at the top of the list."

Wang Qiaoying knelt down to support Yang's knee, tears welled up in her eyes, and said aggrievedly: "But didn't you promise me to betroth me to Lord Hou?"

Yang looked at Wang Qiaoying's lovely and pitiful face, put down the teacup, patted Wang Qiaoying's face, and said softly: "Qiaoer, you should know that I am not the biological mother of Lord Hou. How can my stepmother get involved in the marriage?"

Wang Qiaoying asked helplessly: "Then what should I do? Aunt, you have to help me!"

"Son, you can't just rely on others, you have to hold your life in your own hands." A calculating sneer appeared on Yang's well-maintained face, and his tone was cold, "We women, as long as we catch men's The heart is to grasp everything, Master Hou has always been an upright person, as long as you have the ability to make him like you, he will definitely be responsible for you, and then the seat of Mrs. Ning'an Hou will be yours, understand?"

Wang Qiaoying thought for a while, and said dejectedly: "But Hou Ye usually doesn't even look at me, not only me, but other women don't see him look at him too much. Sometimes I wonder if Hou Ye doesn't like women."

"What nonsense! The Marquis has not yet married a wife. If people hear about it, will the Ning'an Hou Mansion lose face?" Although the Yang family does not like Jing Yu as his stepson, the reputation of the Hou Mansion is still very important. After all, everything is prosperous, and everything is damaged. She stared at Wang Qiaoying with hatred, "Master Hou doesn't look at you, so you won't use your brain to find a way to make him look at you?"

Jing Yu was still busy with business during the day, and at night he came back to Bai Jinfu's yard.

Bai Jinfu ate dinner early, and asked Yan Rui to help him spread a thick mattress on the heated kang, and then surrounded it with a quilt to make a thick nest. After washing, he climbed onto the kang and nestled comfortably I read the newly-bought storybook inside, and there are small snacks at hand, not to mention how comfortable it is.

As soon as Jing Yu came in, he saw Bai Jinfu's lazy look, and teased: "You will enjoy it, if you are so lazy, who's girl will marry you?"

There were no outsiders, Bai Jinfu was too lazy to get out of bed, moved his body to make room for Jing Yu, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you don't get a wife. It just happens that I have enough to eat, and the whole family is not hungry."

Jing Yu looked at Bai Jinfu who was huddled on the bed, and couldn't imagine what Bai Jinfu would be like when he got married. He was innocent and lazy, so how could he be expected to assume the responsibility of the head of the family and take care of his wife? Son?

Jing Yu also knew that he shouldn't pamper Bai Jinfu to enjoy himself, but when he saw this face, it seemed that all his principles were in vain. He subconsciously felt that Bai Jinfu was born to be pampered and pampered. I couldn't bear to see him frowning and aggrieved.

Jing Yu secretly thought, it seems that he must be matched with a wife who is capable and able to take care of things.

"By the way, Lord Hou," Bai Jinfu pretended to be very curious, and looked at Jing Yu with wide eyes, "Last night was too hasty to ask you, you have been away from Beijing for so long this time, and you have a question about the matter of the Seventh Prince. But what are the eyebrows?"

Jing Yu sat down, and naturally he would not tell Bai Jinfu the real secret, but only vaguely said: "It has been found out that the person who abducted the Seventh Prince was a merchant who came to Beijing to do business, and he has sent people to the merchant's Looking for clues in my hometown, there should be results soon."

What?So fast!Bai Jinfu was secretly surprised, Jing Yu didn't notice the change in Bai Jinfu's eyes, and continued to say: "It's a coincidence, the merchant is from the same town as you, and is also from Suzhou, Ah Fu."

When Bai Jinfu heard Jing Yu call him suddenly, his heart almost jumped into his throat, his hands tightly clutched the quilt underneath, and he tried to keep calm, "Ah? What's wrong?"

Jing Yu turned his head sideways and looked at Bai Jinfu for a while. Cold sweat almost dripped from Bai Jinfu's brow when he looked at him like this. Then he heard the man slowly say: "In conclusion, the Seventh Prince is about the same age as you. Do you have any friends of the same age? Maybe you and the Seventh Prince still know each other."

After hearing this, Bai Jinfu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a dry smile, "Suzhou is so big, with so many people, how could such a coincidence happen."

At the same time, he was thinking in his mind, based on Jing Yu's efficiency, it seemed that the Bai family would be found out in a short time, then his identity could not be concealed, and he had to make preparations before his identity was revealed.

At this moment, Yan Ruiyanshou and his brothers came in to serve tea and water, distracted Jing Yu's attention, and told Yan Ruiyanshou, "You two will accompany you to the street tomorrow and make some new clothes."

Yan Shouyan Rui said in unison: "Yes, Lord Hou."

Bai Jin helped her up and said, "I have enough clothes to wear, so I don't need to make new ones."

"I have my own intentions for doing this." Jing Yu turned and said, "I'm going to Dongyang Princess Palace for a banquet in a few days, would you like to go with me?"

Dongyang Princess Palace?It's a coincidence, isn't it, he's been thinking about how to bring Jing Yu and Princess Changle together!

Immediately nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes, I am willing!"

Seeing that Bai Jinfu agreed so decisively, Jing Yu asked strangely, "Do you know what you are going to do?"

Bai Jin Fu pretended to be Suan, "I don't know, but it's good to go out with Lord Hou and learn a lot."

Jing Yu waved his hand, signaling Yan Ruiyanshou to step back first, then looked at Bai Jinfu with a half-smile and said, "There will be many ladies from famous families going to the banquet that day, so you should dress yourself up well. If you are interested If you like it, come back and tell me, and I will help you propose a marriage."

Bai Jinfu was stunned: "...Huh?"

Jing Yu looked at his stupid expression, and his smile deepened, "Why? You just told me last night that you want to start a family first and then start a career. Now I'm trying to help you get married, and you're not happy anymore?"

Bai Jin helped her back to her senses, and said awkwardly: "No, don't worry about it? Just like me, which woman would marry me?"

Jing Yu patted the quilt on Bai Jinfu's chest, as if he was considerate of his elder brother, "You don't have to worry about these things, I will arrange everything."

Bai Jin was dumbfounded, he lived two lifetimes, except for his parents, Jing Yu was really the best person to him, but it was the original owner, not him, who saved Jing Yu, he was bearing Jing Yu's care and care for the original owner, I really can't get over my conscience.

Bai Jinfu became depressed, pulled down the quilt, knelt down beside Jing Yu, and asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, is it because I saved you that you are so kind to me?"

Jing Yu was silent for a while, as if he was thinking, before reaching out to pat Bai Jinfu's forehead, he said: "It's not just for this reason, I think you are very congenial, you are like my brother, and I just want to Let me tell you something, I plan to recognize you as my brother-in-law, and we will be sworn brothers when we choose a day, okay?"

Marriage to Jinlan?That sounds like a good idea.

If Jing Yu becomes his adopted brother, then it is only natural to help him, and no one will gossip about it.

Bai Jinfu nodded in agreement, and suddenly a thought came into his mind, and he asked jokingly, "Master Hou, if the one who saved you was a girl, would you have treated her so well?"

Jing Yu had never made this assumption before, so he couldn't think of the answer for a while, so he casually said "um", waiting for Bai Jinfu to say something else.

Bai Jin put his elbows on the low table and looked at Jing Yu with his palms on his chin, "Then what if the girl wants you to repay your life-saving grace with a promise of your body?"

Jing Yu didn't like to think about things that hadn't happened, but seeing Bai Jinfu was in high spirits, he fooled him half-truthfully, "Then I can only marry."

"Really?" Bai Jinfu sat up straight in disbelief, and broke the casserole to ask the end, "If that girl is just a country girl, would you marry me too? You are the Marquis of Ning'an!"

Jing Yu brushed off his sleeves, and said righteously: "Why not, if the girl hadn't saved my life, Marquis Ning'an would have died long ago, and I should repay the favor of saving my life even if I was smashed to pieces."

Bai Jinfu believed that Jing Yu was a man who could do what he said, shook his head, and sighed pretendingly, "Oh, it's a pity that I was not born as a daughter."

Jing Yu couldn't help but startled when he heard it, as if something brushed his heart, the touch was fleeting, and he didn't even have time to recollect what it felt like.

Jing Yu glanced at Bai Jinfu as if nothing had happened, and saw that the beauty's fair cheeks were flushed red by the warm Kang, as if covered with rouge. Although his appearance was feminine, his bones were cold, and now he was burned by the candlelight. With a lining, it looks more and more gorgeous, bright and colorful.

Thoughts fly uncontrollably, if he is a woman, he wants to promise himself... His heart beat a little faster, and his throat became tighter and tighter. Jing Yu realized that something was wrong, so he quickly turned his head and closed his eyes, ordering himself to stop Think about these unwanted thoughts.

Bai Jinfu noticed the change in Jing Yu's expression. There seemed to be a rosy glow flying across his face, and he was very happy. A serious person just couldn't take a joke, so he deliberately brought his face closer to Jing Yu, bending his eyebrows and eyes to tease him: "Hou Lord, are you blushing? I was just joking, haha!"

"No!" Jing Yu got up and turned around, the expression on his face had returned to normal, his eyes glanced at the scriptures that Bai Jinfu threw on the bed in disgust, and his tone was deliberately severe, "Go to rest earlier, and stop reading these things." Miscellaneous books are all misleading things, so I'm leaving."

The author has something to say:

Goldfish: It doesn't matter if you fuck your brother and fuck your brother.
