Chapter 146 You will marry me, and I will marry you
The whole county governor's mansion was quiet. At this time, even the people probably went to sleep.
Zeng Yanliang hid outside the window of the study and didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere. However, at this time, the two people in the study were silent and didn't know what they were thinking.
After about a cup of tea, the general manager Ji sighed and turned back to He Lijing and said, "Lord He, I'm here to spread the words of the prime minister this time. Since this has spread, I won't stay here for a long time. As for what to do here, I think you can make a decision yourself. As for the prime minister, as you know, I won't watch those people do anything behind your back..."
As soon as He Lijing heard this, he hurriedly stood up to hold Manager Ji and said eagerly, "General Manager Ji, everything over there depends on you!"
General Manager Ji frowned and sped his lips, looking as if there was some suffering. He patted the back of He Lijing's hand and said, "Lord He, you know that I always have something to say directly. Normally, there should be nothing wrong with you over there now. Anyway, Lord He also has such a relationship with his grandfather, doesn't he? But now, many people are gossiping behind their backs, saying that the little ancestor of the prime minister's family is dissatisfied with your Ruiping... Alas... I think if this marriage is delayed any longer, it will be more and more unfavorable to Lord He..."
When He Lijing heard this, instead of continuing to be depressed, he became a spiritual leader with a smile on his face and said to General Manager Ji, "General Manager Ji can rest assured about this matter. Since the last time you said that someone was chewing their tongue on your side, I have been careful to send a letter to your wife. Well, the old lady asked someone to say that the eldest son will come to Wuming County in person in the near future. After he met the little girl, there would be no more problems with this matter.
After He Lijing finished saying this, Zeng Yanliang watched General Manager Ji shake his head slightly.
Thinking of He Ruiping, Zeng Yanliang couldn't help shaking his head. Looking at the general manager Ji's intention to leave, Zeng Yanliang did not dare to stay for a long time and jumped to the roof. He kept watching He Lijing send General Manager Ji out, and Zeng Yanliang quietly left in another direction.
The place where Zeng Yanliang's figure passed was also lit in another yard that he did not notice.
This yard is the innermost part of the county magistrate's mansion, and it is also the most exquisite courtyard in the county magistrate's mansion.
The moonlight is so beautiful that the flowers and plants carefully taken care of in the courtyard are extremely beautiful. Unfortunately, the owner of the yard never paid attention to them.
"Miss, listen to Hongye's advice, don't be angry..." The maid with a pair of round and small eyes stood beside the tray and softly persuaded.
"Hmm! It's her ability to make me so angry!"
It was He Ruiping, the daughter of He Lijing, who said this.
She wore a hair and sat at the round table in her bedroom wearing snow-white trousers, looking angrily at a pot of wine and two side dishes just brought by the maid Hongye.
He Ruiping, who had already fallen asleep, closed her eyes and recalled what happened during the day. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Finally, she was so irritable that she couldn't stand it anymore. She got up and asked the maid Hongye to get some wine and vegetables to drink some wine to relieve her anger.
The maid Hongye has never seen her daughter so angry. He Ruiping is the only daughter of He Lijing. Who doesn't know that she is the apple of the county magistrate? Whether in the house or outside, no one has ever dared to say a "no" to He Ruiping...
It's not right... It should be said that no one has ever said a "no" to the lady except the prince.
Hongye sighed, picked up the wine pot and filled He Ruiping with a glass of wine, and whispered, "Miss, what do you think is going on with that woman surnamed Leng? Look, she is young and not as old as a young lady. Why is even the master..."
Before Hongye finished speaking, He Ruiping grabbed the glass and took a sip. The liquor flowed down from her mouth like a line of fire, which made He Ruiping cough uncontrollably.
When the cough was almost over, He Ruiping frowned and said angrily, "If it hadn't been for my father's persistently letting me endure it, how could I have let her go so easily?" Did you see what she looked like today? The smile is fake, and it looks disgusting! After Dad said that she was an old friend, the so-called old friend was just a four-grade official! And he is also a fugitive officer! Now it's just Dad's next small county magistrate!"
"Isn't it?" Hongye said, "I don't know how she climbed up to the prince..."
"Hit!" He Ruiping patted the table and said angrily, "Can you reach the prince with her appearance?"
Hongye was stunned when he heard the words, and then suddenly figured out why the lady was so angry. Today, in the Raven Qingmo Pavilion, what people talked about most was the friendship between Leng Xuanrong and King Xiaohan and Mr. Dou of the Imperial Family. In addition to envy and jealousy, there were also many other words. Even a little girl like Hongye understood, and many people speculated about the deeper relationship between Leng Xuanrong and King Xiaohan or Mr. Dou.
In theory, even if the rumor is true, it has nothing to do with He Ruiping. But Hongye knows best that her young lady has been cautious and arrogant, and has always believed that even if she can't enter the palace, she will definitely marry into a prominent family in the imperial city. Later, although He Ruiping made a marriage with the parents of the most powerful prime minister of the dynasty, in order to do this, the whole county magistrate and even the whole Wuming County knew how much thought He Lijing had spent to find how many people to plead for mercy, and even did not hesitate to spend a lot of gold and silver to buy property for a few people in the imperial city. . It was because of He Lijing's action at all costs that He Ruiping's marriage was finalized.
However, although the marriage has been decided, there is news from the imperial city that the prime minister's parents are very dissatisfied with the marriage and have caused troubles again and again. It is precisely because of this that although the marriage has been fixed for more than two years, there has been no progress so far.
It took me so much effort to marry the parents of Prime Minister He Ruiping. Why can the wild girl who is not as good as me easily climb up to the famous King Xiaohan and the famous Mr. Dou?
Hongye felt that Miss must have thought so, so she was so angry that she couldn't even sleep.
This marriage has always been a pain in He Ruiping's heart, so even if Hongye thinks of something, she dares not speak now. She moved back quietly with the tray in her arms and watched He Ruiping drink alone.
Three glasses of wine, He Ruiping's heart became more irritable.
She suddenly felt that she was hindered by the marriage set by her father. If it hadn't been for this marriage, maybe she would have met King Xiaohan. If it hadn't been for this marriage, maybe she would have been able to get close to him when Mr. Dou, the imperial palace, was still in Nayan County. If it goes well, she may be the young grandmother of the imperial palace now.
It's a pity. When she knew that Mr. Dou opened a study in Nyan County, her father had already promoted her marriage contract with that person...
The Imperial Palace... Speaking of which, the Imperial Palace may be better than the First Assistant Prime Minister's Mansion. Most importantly, Mr. Dou's reputation spread because others thought he was really good. And what about that man... No matter who talks about him, the first thing to say is that he is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family... and...
He Ruiping recalled the words that a relative from the imperial city spilled the beans, and her heart seemed to have a big pimple in her heart.
I am obviously the daughter of the county magistrate and have a noble status, but why is my life so bitter?
He Ruiping frowned, poured herself to drink, and drank another glass of wine.
It's okay if your life is hard, but at this time, there is a Xuanrong sister in front of you!
Humph! Sister Xuanrong! Look at her bitter face! Even if she smiled, she didn't smile from her eyes! When no one paid attention to her, she immediately turned into a bitter and feud, and she felt uncomfortable. How can such a woman win the favor of the prince? How can you confuse Mr. Dou?
There must be something else between them. Maybe this Leng Xuanrong is just a tool that can be lost in the hands of the two adults... It must be so...
He Ruiping didn't know how much wine she had drunk. After a burst of dizziness, she lay on the table and her eyes were a little wet.
"You are really cruel... Why? Why didn't you even see me before, and you said you didn't like me..." He Ruiping's eyes straightened and muttered, "Is it because I'm not beautiful... Is it because my family background is not in your eyes... Is there someone else in your heart... The marriage has been decided, we are husband and wife, you must marry me, and I will marry you..."
Hongye saw He Ruiping's appearance and knew that she must have remembered the young man again. Her heart was sad. Hongye hurried over and patted He Ruiping on the shoulder and whispered, "Miss, you are drunk. Go to ** to bed quickly..."
"You will marry me... I will marry you..."
He Ruiping kept muttering this sentence, her voice was getting lower and lower, and finally fell asleep...
Leng Xuanrong lay on the bed and stared at the window lattice illuminated by the moonlight, thinking silently. I don't know if Brother Yan Liang has come back. I don't know if he can find out any news... What was he doing at this time in his previous life? Leng Xuanrong gradually remembered.
There is a small yard in the county magistrate's mansion. There are only three houses in the yard, which is full of weeds, and it seems that no one has ever cleaned it. At this time in her previous life, Leng Xuanrong nestled in a dark room in the yard and prayed to heaven tremblingly that she would never let the man come to her again.
