But how can this be so easy?
Now his marriage is no longer just his personal matter.
Thinking that it was King Xuan and King Zhuang who suggested that he was being targeted this time, a glimmer of light flashed in Zhong Lizhou's eyes.
"My marriage will not be a shackle, nor should it be a bargaining chip. I have already made plans. The one who should be really anxious now should be Prince Zhuang."
A smile appeared on Zhong Lizhou's lips.
He was not unprepared when he came to Beijing this time. He had already almost interrogated the traitor Song Yifei, and the other party had barely told him the color of his underwear.
"What do you mean by this? Prince Zhuang has something in your hands?"
"Well, although Song Yifei is a retainer of the Jiang family, it was actually arranged by King Zhuang. He is actually a member of King Zhuang. During the border crossing, he was also a foreigner that King Zhuang colluded with."
Ji Changying's eyes widened: "Is there any evidence?"
"Of course." Zhong Lizhou smiled wildly.
Ji Changying saw the confidence in his smile and couldn't help but squint her eyes to look at him.
"What are you looking at me for?"
Feeling her eyes, Zhong Lizhou straightened his chest uncomfortably.
"All the potatoes in Xiaotian Village have been harvested. I plan to leave a small part for the people in the village to try it, and the rest will be used as seeds. After next spring, at least half of the dry land will be planted with this. Anyone who has tried this After reaping the benefits, those people will be more energetic when planting, what do you think?"
Hearing the business, Zhong Lizhou couldn't help but become more serious: "This matter is entirely left to you. I have already explained to Zhang Ziru how to cooperate. My father and the others will not interfere."
"This matter cannot be hidden from the emperor's grandfather. I reported the news to him yesterday. He now has great confidence in you."
Ji Changying was not surprised by this result.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time and chatted a lot. Ji Changying vividly told Zhong Lizhou about the palace banquet when the Zhou family recognized their relatives. Zhong Lizhou listened very attentively.
There were originally just snowflakes the size of grains of salt outside, but now they have turned into heavy snowflakes.
More and more people came to the restaurant to sit for a while to avoid the snow, and waited for the servants at home to arrive with carriages and umbrellas before embarking on their way home.
Zhong Lizhou and Ji Changying didn't notice it as they were eating and chatting in the private room. It was only when they got up to go downstairs to pay the bill that they realized there were many more people in the restaurant.
Just as Zhong Lizhou was about to check out, a voice came from beside him: "Wait a minute!"
Ji Changying and Zhong Lizhou turned to look.
Two noble ladies stood side by side. The one on the left had a refined temperament and beautiful appearance, with a perfect smile on her lips. She seemed to be measuring her steps with a ruler, and she took every step gracefully.
The one on the right is slightly worse looking, but she is also very pleasant in appearance, and her manners are obviously not as neat as the one next to her. The question just now was made by her.
Zhong Lizhou and Ji Changying looked at them blankly.
"Princess, are you going back to the Princess Mansion?" Cui Yanwu glanced at Zhong Lizhou with a smile and asked softly.
Ji Changying nodded: "I was about to go home, why did you two stop me?"
"If I read correctly just now, you should have come down from the second floor. In this case, I want your private room."
Jiang Chulan raised her chin slightly and looked at Ji Changying and said unceremoniously.
They came in a little late, and the shopkeeper just said that there was no room left. At this moment, she saw Ji Changying coming down from the top, and then she took the initiative to talk to her.
Ji Changying frowned at her matter-of-fact and even somewhat rude order. She frowned and said, "We are just about to check out and leave. If this girl needs it, please go to the shopkeeper and make it clear that there is no need to come over." Discuss with us."
This was the first time that Jiang Chulan saw Ji Changying speak so straightforwardly and without mercy at all.
"Shopkeeper, pay!"
"OK!"
The shopkeeper stood aside as if he didn't hear the comments of several people. He took out the abacus and started calculating the accounts in a business-like manner. Jiang Chulan became a little anxious when she saw this. She slapped her hand on the cabinet and said, "I I told you! We want their private room! Go and tidy it up, I’m going in now.”
Cui Yanwu turned to look at the sky outside. There were black crows, and there seemed to be nothing else between the sky and the earth except this white patch. He turned to look at Zhong Lizhou and Ji Changying: "It's raining heavily outside now, don't you two?" If you’re in a hurry, can we sit down and wait together?”
Ji Changying instinctively didn't want to be with someone like Jiang Chulan, "No need."
"I told you to send someone to clean up the private room, didn't you hear me?"
Jiang Chulan looked at the shopkeeper who was still immersed in settling accounts, reached out and snatched his abacus and glared at him.
The shopkeeper's expression remained unchanged: "Miss Jiang, please let me go and don't make it difficult for me to pay the customers. If you want a private room, you can queue up by yourself."
He pointed at the people sitting on the chairs outside waiting for a vacant seat, with a look of helplessness on their faces.
"Now that you know my girl's last name, you know what to do. Why don't you go and clean up the private room?"
Jiang Chulan fiddled with the abacus casually and glanced at the shopkeeper contemptuously.
Cui Yanwu frowned: "If not, forget it."
Jiang Chulan snorted coldly: "I don't believe it today, I can't sit still!"
Those people who were waiting in line were a little dissatisfied, but they recognized that these two people were from the Cui family and the Jiang family, so they swallowed their anger and went back.
A group of people walked in at the door, surrounded by wind and snow. A layer of white frost fell on their heads. When they looked up, surprise flashed on their faces.
"master!!"
"Prince?!"
Two exclamations sounded together.
Ji Changying also looked at them in shock, it turned out to be Wang Fugui and Zhang Juzheng!
"I didn't expect that I would meet my master as soon as I entered Beijing! What a joy and congratulation!"
When Wang Fugui saw Ji Changying, he immediately forgot about everyone else, crowded around Ji Changying and started talking to her: "Oh! What a coincidence! I met some brothers on the way, After asking, I found out that he is actually a member of your tribe! No, we came together by the way! Come and see if you know me?"
Wang Fugui stood on tiptoe and searched behind, and pulled Ji Shilin, Ji Shishan, Ji Hu and others behind him.
They were stunned when they were pulled over, but when they saw Ji Changying, they immediately became excited: "Ah Ying!"
"Uncle! Uncle! When did you come?"
Ji Changying was surprised and happy.
"Hahaha, we set out two months ago, and we just arrived here today. The yellow potatoes and red potatoes are ripe at home. The clan had already planned to send you some before the year, so I didn't tell you! "
The people from Beiyan who were queuing up outside heard the word "Tudou" keenly, and immediately turned their heads and looked directly at Ji Shilin and the others.
