Chapter 1913: Come to the door
Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Didn't you get along with the Lord Shangguan? It must be what she said."
If Zhai Lanye wants to know Zhou Hao’s identity, he must ask his best friend who is powerful.
As the largest Cao Gang in Jiangnan, Shangguan Xi was not easy to find out about the news.
Zhou Hao did not remind Shangguan Xi not to reveal his identity, because this matter could not be hidden.
Zhai Lanye smiled and said, "Since that day, I have often moored boats by the Shou West Lake, hoping to see you again with the will. Until yesterday, Sister Shangguan told me that Mr. Lu is actually Lord Lu."
Only fools believe this. Of course, Zhou Hao is not unconfident in his own charm, but that Zhai Lanye cannot decide who he wants to meet and who he has to be with.
The reason why Zhai Lanye came to him was probably instructed by the master behind her. As for the purpose of approaching him, I don’t know.
So Zhou Hao planned to find out her bottom. Since he knew Zhou Hao's identity, he also directed Zhai Lanye to pounce, indicating that the person behind him had strong confidence.
In fact, Zhou Hao was already sure that what he was doing now was to block the water and soil.
Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Actually, since I saw the girl that day, I have missed her every day, so I asked someone to investigate the girl's identity."
When Zhai Lanye heard Zhou Hao say he missed him every day, he showed a hint of just the right shyness.
Zhou Hao continued: "I later learned that the girl had been in close contact with Zhou Xian in the past few months. The girl is a smart person, so she won't forget him, right?"
Zhai Lanye picked up the tea and took a sip. She was thinking about how to answer by taking the water stop.
"Of course I remember that Lord Zhou was very good at talking and never thought... he would..."
Zhou Hao: "I wonder if you have heard of the river repair money from him."
Zhai Lanye said in surprise: "I only know that he came to Yangzhou this time to renovate the Yangzhou River embankment. I don't know where the contacts are very close. I have only seen him three or four times before and after, and they are just chatting and know very little about him. He has never mentioned the matter in the court in front of me."
Zhou Hao shook his head and smiled, "I know very little? You used four words to pass on a man who is reluctant to give up his love for himself, and even took risks for you and gave his life?"
He was a little bit of a poor man for Zhou Xian, who wanted to give the best to Zhai Lanye.
Zhai Lanye complained: "Although Lanye is not from a big family, she has read "The Legend of the Wild Girls" since she was a child. Is this true that Lanye has no place to live?"
Her pitiful look is indeed very touching.
But Zhou Hao is knowledgeable and is basically immune to this.
Seeing Zhou Hao's expression calm, Zhai Lanye continued, "I don't hide it from my elders. My adoptive father has educated me for many years and has set rules. I need a betrothal gift of 10,000 taels of silver to marry me. Although 10,000 taels of silver is not a big deal, it is nothing compared to the river repair money."
That's what you said, do you still want a 100,000 taels of betrothal gift?
Zhou Hao: "Actually, I have been to Zhou Mansion. Outside the window of the attic, guess what did I see?"
He had no nerve to say that he ran around someone's boudoir.
Zhai Lanye: "What?"
"I saw the girl's boudoir. Is there such a coincidence? After Zhou Xian was imprisoned, you moved away!"
Zhou Hao looked at Zhai Lanye while talking.
At first, Zhai Lanye was still a little nervous, but after hearing Zhou Hao say that, she relaxed.
"Lord Lu is worthy of being the Jinyiwei. In fact, like the Lord, I admire Master Zhou's talent very much. He pursued me, and according to my adoptive father's wishes, I did not refuse. During this period, I gave him a sachet, and he also gave me a box of rouge again, that's all."
Zhou Hao was speechless. He knew that he had found out, so he deliberately said it.
Her answer was very logical, but as a young woman who could still say such organized words when she was suspected by the Jinyiwei, she was doubtful that her calmness and calmness were questionable.
Zhai Lanye said sadly: "Lanye is just a thin Yangzhou horse that is despised by others. He has no choice but to do anything."
Zhou Hao stroked the lid of the teacup: "It's really that?"
Zhai Lanye suddenly reached out and held Zhou Hao's hand and said earnestly: "Sir, you must believe me. Lord Zhou and I are innocent. Lanye has never been sincere to any man, except you!"
She held Zhou Hao's hand tightly. Zhou Hao looked at her without seeing any flaws.
A talented actor can act like a real person, and it is impossible to see on the surface.
Zhai Lanye is very talented, but Zhou Hao subconsciously felt that she was showing her true feelings.
But if the person behind him was the one behind him, he wouldn't have made such a mistake.
Beauty scheme, it's a long time to try.
Zhai Lanye: "Since I met the adults that day, I fell in love with you at first sight..."
Yuan Jinxia passed by here and happened to see Zhai Lanye holding Zhou Hao's hand and talking.
She widened her eyes and felt a sense of loss and discomfort in her heart.
Zhou Hao also saw Yuan Jinxia at this time, and he originally planned to use the trick.
But he subconsciously didn't want Yuan Jinxia to see this scene, so he pulled out his hand.
Zhou Hao was also a little surprised at what he thought.
He didn't know when he began to really care about Yuan Jinxia's feelings.
Zhou Hao said lightly: "Since this case has nothing to do with the girl, just feel at ease."
He changed the subject and Zhai Lanye stopped attacking.
Her purpose was to seduce Lu Yi. She could feel that Lu Yi responded at the beginning, but suddenly closed the door.
At this time, Yuan Jinxia had left, and she did not see Yuan Jinxia.
-------------------------------------
Yuan Jinxia has an appointment today, and Xie Xiao invites her to see the show.
The Chunxi Class, which was famous in Yangzhou many years ago, has returned.
Xie Xiao likes to listen to operas, and he is rich and generous and has the best position in the middle.
Fruit desserts and tea are placed on the table.
Yuan Jinxia came in and started eating, and said while eating, "You asked me to thank you, just let me come here to listen to music with you? I can't tell you, who is usually rough and stingy, and you have such cultivation."
The last time I asked Zhai Lanye about it, it was Yuan Jinxia who asked Xie Xiao to help.
This is a debt of favor.
Xie Xiao looked at Yuan Jinxia with a little admiration, but unfortunately Yuan Jinxia didn't see it.
Xie Xiao said speechlessly: "Don't look down on me. Although I am not a senior executive like Lu Yi, I am also a businessman. Listening to music is of course a daily entertainment."
Yuan Jinxia sighed: "It's great to have money!"
Xie Xiao: "I brought you here because this Chunxi class was famous in Yangzhou a few years ago, and every place was full of people. Later, it disappeared because of a murder."
"Murder case?" Yuan Jinxia's little hand that was stuffing into her mouth finally stopped.
She has no interest in listening to operas, but this snack is pretty good.
As soon as she heard about the murder case, she became interested.
Xie Xiao nodded: "I came here just to see if I could hear "The First Incense", that's the best song I've ever heard."
Yuan Jinxia just glanced at him, without any curiosity.
