"Since the last disaster, the imperial court asked the governors of various states to start rectifying the states and counties. Chengzhou Governor Cheng Liao went to inspect the three surrounding counties, and also took his son with him. Today, he returned to Chengzhou Governor
Mansion."
After Huang Jiaojiao said this, Wang Yuan was surprised, but he didn't think much about it.
First of all, he did not have any direct conflict with the governor. If he did, it was just because the Li family wanted to marry his wife to the governor.
But now that the Li family has openly discussed matters with themselves, even if the governor wants to cause trouble for him, it may not be that easy.
As for the son of Governor Cheng Liao, Wang Yuan was not worried. He and Li Shihan were marrying each other. Could it be that he would still dare to rob her?
Although he did not have any good impressions in front of the current Holy Emperor and was even scolded, but the mountain was high and the emperor was far away, Wang Yuan had ways to protect himself.
"Miss Huang, thank you very much, Mr. Wang." Wang Yuan said with a smile.
Huang Jiaojiao shook her head, "Young Master Wang, you don't have to be polite. Since you and I are friends, this little thing is nothing."
"It's just that... the prince is so full of economics and has plans to stabilize the country, but he is treated like this. It is really unfortunate for the prince."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Yuan glanced at Huang Jiaojiao in slight surprise.
This woman...
What means?
Does she, a singer, have any thoughts about court matters?
Seeing Wang Yuan's gaze, Huang Jiaojiao just smiled and said lightly: "Master Wang, please don't misunderstand, the little lady just said it casually."
"It's just that in this troubled world, in order to protect myself, I found a way out for myself."
"Young Master Wang and I hit it off immediately. If Mr. Wang needs it, I can introduce him to you."
Wang Yuan took a deep look at Huang Jiaojiao. This woman's words had a hidden meaning!
That way out...?
What is the retreat?
Wang Yuan wanted to ask and understand, but he didn't. He didn't want to accept any solicitation from the left and right sides.
As for the Bai family, they are equally unwilling!
Of course, he could guess that Huang Jiaojiao was not recruited by the Bai family to recruit him. He and Bai Feifei had already made it very clear, and the latter knew what he was thinking.
Even if she wanted to recruit her, she wouldn't let Huang Jiaojiao come!
Then behind her...
Who on earth is it?
Wang Yuan smiled hastily, cupped his hands and said, "Miss Huang's words really frightened Mr. Wang. However, Mr. Wang is a comfortable person, so I accept Ms. Huang's wishes."
Even if Wang Yuan is curious, he will not ask who is the person behind her!
As long as you don't ask, nothing will happen!
Huang Jiaojiao could only smile. It was not the right time yet, so there were some things she could not say clearly.
"Young Master Wang, I will take my leave then."
"Oh, by the way, I heard that there will be a Nanshan Guest Poetry Contest in the next two days. All the young ladies from Chengzhou will participate. Mr. Wang, if you are interested, don't forget to attend."
After saying these words, Huang Jiaojiao left.
After she left, Dahu, who had been standing at the door, took a deep breath with a worried look in his eyes.
"Brother Yuan, the governor is back, will he..."
Wang Yuan knew that he was worried, but he shook his head, "No, don't worry."
Wang Yuan was not too worried about the governor, but he was still full of doubts about Huang Jiaojiao!
Early the next morning, Lu Zhaolin found Wang Yuan and said with a worried look: "Uncle Yuan, it's not good, Wang Chonglou seems to have been plotted against!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuan was immediately startled and couldn't help but said: "You have been plotted, what's going on?"
Only then did Lu Zhaolin start from the beginning.
Wang Chonglou came to Chengzhou because he had a marriage contract with the Sun family in Chengzhou.
The ancestors of the Sun family made a living by making cloth, and their family was prosperous. After several generations of business, they have gained the strength they have today.
Originally, the Sun family's backers were the Wang family, but the Sun family was almost implicated in Wang Haitian's matter, so from then on, the marriage was not mentioned again.
In addition, the two children are not yet old enough to talk about marriage.
But this time, when Wang Chonglou came to the Sun family, not only did he not see the young lady from the Sun family, he also got angry at the banquet.
"The Sun family invited a friend. I heard that this friend was the governor's butler. He said a few bad words about Uncle Wang at the wine table, but... Chonglou didn't hug him and gave him a big scolding.
The words are fierce, and even vaguely... have the shadow of a rightist faction!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Yuan frowned. It seemed that the Sun family did this on purpose!
Even though they knew Wang Haitian's affairs, they still angered Wang Zhonglou with such words. The Sun family was really killing someone with a knife.
With the help of the governor, Wang Chonglou must be dealt with.
"Where's Chonglou?"
Wang Yuan spoke hurriedly.
"He is still with the Sun family now. The Sun family is afraid and insists on letting Wang Chonglou go to the governor to apologize and break the engagement at the same time."
Lu Zhaolin said hurriedly that he also received the news early this morning.
Wang Yuan was very anxious and secretly thought that he was so busy with his wife that he had forgotten about Wang Chonglou.
After thinking for a moment, he thought about it and said, "Go to Sun's house and bring a generous gift."
Although Wang Yuan didn't want to go, for Wang Chonglou's sake, he could only see the faces of the Sun family.
At this moment, in the Sun family's mansion, Wang Zhonglou was sitting there with a very ugly face. The head of the Sun family, Sun Dehai, who would be Wang Zhonglou's father-in-law in the future, had anger in his eyes.
"Chonglou, although this engagement was made a long time ago, things are different now, so you should back off. Another point is that you talked nonsense after dinner yesterday. Do you know who it was?
Butler of the Governor, you actually said those insinuations, you are simply seeking death!"
"Don't think that Brother Wang is a bit thin in front of the world, but do you know who is behind the Governor!"
Sun Dehai snorted and spoke. Although he spoke angrily, it could be seen that there was still pride on his lips!
Wang Chonglou was very angry. He actually didn't want to come to Chengzhou to get married, but he had to listen to his second uncle's words.
Who knew it would turn out like this after arriving!
Wang Zhonglou could naturally guess that the Sun family was deliberately plotting against him. He originally wanted to just walk away, but after thinking about his second uncle's hot temper, he still endured it.
"Uncle Sun, I didn't say much yesterday, so you don't have to worry about it so much, right?"
Wang Zhonglou couldn't help but speak, but Sun Dehai slapped the table hard.
"You haven't said anything more yet? You said that your second uncle is full of strategies and is not reused because he is misunderstood!"
"It's also said that some people have evil intentions and are making trouble. Isn't it serious enough?"
"Who in the world made your second uncle fall from power? You don't need me to tell you, you can guess it yourself!"
