Chapter 240 Handle
If she had known that Cui Yuan was not kind-hearted, Lin Huazhi had been used to it. After listening to Cui Yuan's words, she did not express much surprise. With a smile, she looked at Cui Yuan and asked, "What does Lord Cui want from me?"
Cui Yuan tapped his chin and thought for a long time before saying, "If I want you, will you give it to me?"
"Is Lord Cui joking? Or...are you flirting with me?" Lin Huazhi was not annoyed and asked Cui Yuan again.
"Does the girl think I'm joking?"
"The adult also said 'if', which shows that the adult is not serious in the first place."
"What about me seriously?"
The smile on Lin Huazhi's face was even stronger: "Lord Cui, what do you want me to answer? The adult asked so unconfidently that I don't think we need to go on. What do you want her to say, as if she is a commodity? Lin Huazhi sneered in her heart. At this time, Cui Yuan was like a sick cat in her eyes, with no claws at all.
Cui Yuan was silent for a while before laughing: "Miss Lin, with your eloquence, it's no wonder that Mrs. Zhang can rest assured to hand over the big business to you. Well, let's get some business."
"Wait a minute." Lin Huazhi interrupted Cui Yuan.
His eyes turned around Cui Yuan, and Lin Huazhi continued: "If it had been before, I wouldn't have dared to ask Lord Datong to bargain. But now, it's not like before, adults allow me to say ugly words first. If what the adult said is the answer I want, I will do my best to meet the requirements of the adult, but the premise is that the adult must not say anything about the dyeing business. This may not sound good, but Lord Cui must know that although I won the first place in the silk conference, it is not my business alone. Based on this, I hope you can understand my difficulties.
Cui Yuan refused to suffer losses. Although Lin Huazhi is asking him now, he still has to say some things first so that it will not be difficult for everyone to do. Of course, there is Lin Huazhi's selfishness in it. He tried every means to make Cui Yuan unhappy at the silk making conference. There is no reason to give up the benefits because of a 40 cents.
As soon as Lin Huazhi finished his words, Cui Yuan's face became stiff. In fact, he really wanted to get a spoonful of Lin Huazhi's dyeing business at the beginning. But Lin Huazhi said it in front of him. Obviously, he knew what he thought, and Cui Yuan's face was inevitably a little ugly.
As soon as he looked at Cui Yuan's face, Lin Huazhi was more and more sure that Cui Yuan was thinking about her. Fortunately, it was too much for Cui Yuan to put forward the conditions later.
Cui Yuan's mind turned hundreds of in an instant, looked at Lin Huazhi, and his eyes stopped on her neck again.
After meditating for a moment, Cui Yuan said, "At this hour, the noble concubine and the princess are almost here. Let's go."
Lin Huazhi was stunned. Wait a minute, what does Cui Yuan mean?
Reaching out and grabbing Cui Yuan, Lin Huazhi's face was full of surprise and anger: "Lord Cui, what does this mean? Aren't you laughing at me?"
Maybe Lin Huazhi's strength is too worth mentioning for Cui Yuan. Cui Yuan grabbed Lin Huazhi's wrist with his backhand and laughed softly: "Miss Lin, this is not right. Do business and pay attention to a kind and make money. I am willing to complete the girl, but the girl's price is too low. Obviously, I am too at a loss in this business, so With..." After saying that, he squeezed his eyes at Lin Huazhi with a look that you understood.
It turned out that Cui Yuan had this idea. Lin Huazhi laughed angrily, broke Cui Yuan's fingers away from her wrist and took a deep breath. Lin Huazhi looked at Cui Yuan and said only three words: "You are cruel." Without waiting for Cui Yuan to react, Lin Huazhi kicked Cui Yuan's calf fiercely.
"Oh, Lin Huazhi, you..."
While Cui Yuan was in pain and let go, Lin Huazhi immediately turned around and strode out of the courtyard.
Sure enough, you can't have extravagant expectations for Cui. Everyone is willing to suffer losses. It's really difficult to take advantage of one by one. Hearing Cui Yuan's curse behind him, Lin Huazhi felt a little better.
Returning to the Chaolu Hall, Chunbai was talking to two women. Wu Yuanyuan didn't know where she had gone. Lin Huazhi stood aside, and his face was not very good.
After a while, Chunbai came over, looked at her, frowned and whispered, "What's wrong? You look very angry."
"I just went to see Cui Yuan."
Chunbai gave a sound, her eyes circled her face, and then sighed gently, "Have you quarreled again?" Although I was asking, the tone was very sure.
Lin Huazhi said, "Actually, it's not noisy, but I kicked him."
"What?" Chunbai's voice suddenly became louder and looked left and right. No one paid attention to them. Chunbai pulled Lin Huazhi to the secluded area and said worried, "Are you all right?" While asking, he looked up and down for fear that something would happen to Lin Huazhi.
Lin Huazhi's robe tightly and whispered, "Don't worry, I didn't suffer. It's just... It's just a pity that I didn't ask anything."
Hearing her answer, Chunbai did not seem to be surprised and said with some regret: "I thought I could always hear some news by your means. It can be seen that Cui Yuanding knows something, but he doesn't want to say it.
Seeing that Chunbai guessed a few points, Lin Huazhi finally laughed: "The more Cui Yuanyue is like this, the more I am, the more curious I am about what secrets Smao is hiding. Find some strange faces tomorrow and help me stare at the housekeeper of the Cui family and the little ones around Cui Yuan.
Chunbai was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
"Cui Yuan probably should know who killed Si Mao, but I just looked at his look, and he was not sure. However, seeing that I am so anxious, he will definitely send someone to inquire again in the next few days. Once Cui Yuan confirms his guess, he will definitely come back to me. Send someone to stare at Cui's house, and I don't believe that I can't catch him.
After listening to her words, Chunbai was not in a hurry to speak. I don't know how long it took, Chunbai asked softly, "Is this good? If it is found by Cui Yuan, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to us.
Lin Huazhi couldn't help but wonder about Chunbai's question. Looking back at Chunbai, Lin Huazhi asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with you? Don't you have any ideas?"
Chunbai hummed, looked around again, and whispered, "Today, Cui Guifei came to Xuanhuaguan to attend the Dharma Conference on behalf of Her Majesty. I just heard several ordered ladies say that the Empress Dowager intends to marry Princess Ruolian to Cui Yuan. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to provoke Cui Yuan at this time. You should also know that Lin Yuyang should be very cautious when he first entered Zhongshu Province. Although we are the imperial merchants now, we don't have any real power. If there is a problem at this time, I'm afraid our opponents will be very happy. We can't make mistakes.
Lin Huazhi couldn't help but be stunned, and Chun Bai's words reminded her. There are indeed many things to avoid at this time, and you should think more carefully than before. But...
Lin Huazhi said, "That's the reason, but it's just secretly sent people to stare at it. There should be no problem."
Seeing that Lin Huazhi insisted, Chunbai couldn't say anything more. He thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go to Zhangfu? If something really happens, the old master will help us resist.
To be honest, Lin Huazhi really doesn't want to bother Mr. Zhang, but Chunbai's words just now sounded the alarm for her. Now she really needs to be very careful in this extraordinary period.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Huazhi nodded and agreed to Chunbai's proposal.
After a while, a maid of honor entered the Chaolu Hall and ordered her to go to the Sanqing main hall to kneel down to welcome the noble concubine. Lin Huazhi's status with Chunbai was too low, so she had to huddle in the Chaolu Hall. When the women in the Chaolu Hall almost went out, Chunbai suddenly said, "Miss Du is here."
Lin Huazhi quickly looked up and saw Du Yinglian hurried into the Chaolu Hall in a gold and silver thread robe.
"Ah, why are you still here?" As soon as she saw Lin Huazhi, Du Yinglian didn't say anything. She came forward and pulled them and went out.
"Wait...wait, where are you going to take us?" Lin Huazhi was shocked when she saw that Du Yinglian was going in the direction of the main hall, "Oh, girl, stop it. The noble concubine is still in the front. We are not qualified to go to the front. My sister doesn't want to die.
Du Yinglian took the time to turn around and stare at her: "What are you talking about? Ruchen Taoist priest called you, let's go.
Hearing that the eldest princess was looking for her, Lin Huazhi was even more panicked. She looked at Chunbai, who knew nothing on the side. Lin Huazhi hurriedly said, "Du Yinglian, what the hell happened? With our friendship, why don't you reveal something first? Don't hurt me.
"What? Don't you know?" Du Yinglian, who finally happened something wrong, stopped and turned to look at Lin Huazhi with a surprised face.
"What should I know?" Speaking of which, Lin Huazhi wants to know what's going on.
Seeing that Lin Huazhi didn't seem to be pretending to be stupid, Du Yinglian said with a bad face, "Don't you know how to arrange you to enter the watch instrument?" ( Table, also known as "chemical table" and "burning sparse", is a very important scientific instrument in Taoist fasting, which is widely used in various large-scale activities. Through this ceremony, the Taoist priest presented the text of the prayers of believers to the heavenly court, offered sacrifices to God, and the saints came to the altar to extend the age of blessings and the ancestors.)
Ah, what? Lin Huazhi didn't react for a moment. When did the instrument arrange her? Why didn't anyone inform her?
Du Yinglian was strange: "Although it was a temporary decision, didn't Lord Cui tell you?"
"Lord Cui?" Lin Huazhi frowned. What does this have to do with Cui Yuan?
Chunbai seemed to understand a little and said hurriedly, "Isn't it that the eldest princess arranged for the flowers and branches to recite the prayer form?"
Du Yinglian nodded: "Yes, it was originally agreed to be recited by Princess Ruolian, but this morning Princess Ruolian had a sore throat. After knowing it, the eldest princess was worried that she couldn't find a suitable person, so I thought of you. Unexpectedly, as soon as she talked to the eldest princess, the eldest princess would respond. Lin Huazhi, this is a good opportunity to show your face. Speaking of this, Du Yinglian looked proud.
Well, Lin Huazhi understood that it was not a big deal to recite the prayer form, but today's law will be a little special, so she asked Princess Ruolian to come to the town at the beginning, but it was not good to find anyone to replace the princess when she was sick. Although Lin Huazhi's status is low, he has a top brother, who also has some foundation, pushing her to the front, no matter which force in the court is.
After looking at Chunbai, Lin Huazhi asked again, "I understand, but what does this have to do with Cui Yuan?" In fact, she guessed something.
Du Yinglian smiled and said, "Because Lord Cui happened to be by his side, and after hearing the consent of the eldest princess, he said that he would come to you. I think it's a good opportunity, so..."
Lin Huazhi was angry at first. If Du Yinglian hadn't come to her again, she would have been unable to find her reciter, but it was a great crime of disrespect, and she would have to behead her head. And Cui Yuanming knew but didn't tell her. What's the matter?
But then Lin Huazhi smiled. Well, I'm worried that I don't have Cui Yuan's handle. Won't this be sent to the door? With a secret bite of silver teeth, Lin Huazhi said fiercely, "What a Lord Cui Yuancui, if I don't peel off a layer of skin this time, I won't be surnamed Lin."
