Chapter 82

But after Han Zhan left, the old lady asked Chu Zhi to talk.

It turned out that the fourth prince sent a message yesterday that he invited not only Chu Xi, but also her girl, including Chu Zhi, to the poetry meeting of seven princesses in a few days.

Chu Zhi didn't want to go.

You don't have to guess. The fourth prince asked her to embarrass her in the name of the seven princesses! She's not stupid. Why should she get up.

The old lady didn't understand the prejudice of the fourth Prince against Chu Zhi. She felt that Chu Zhi should attend more of these banquets and recognize a lot of people as soon as he returned to Beijing.

Chu Zhi was about to refuse, so he heard a servant girl report.

"Madam, the young Marquis of Zhongyong Marquis house brought many gifts to us, saying they were for our five girls. At the moment, people are sitting in the front hall drinking tea and things are placed in a yard. Madam, please go and have a look!"

"What's the matter?" the old lady was surprised and turned to ask Chu Zhi, "what gift did the little Marquis give you? Why did he give you?"

Chu Zhi understood. No wonder Han Zhan hurried home just now. It turned out that he was preparing gifts for himself.

He explained to the old lady: "my elder brother took me to meet with the little Marquis several times before. Everyone fell in love with each other. The little Marquis joked that he wanted to recognize me as a righteous sister. The elder brother and the elder sister also knew that they agreed. It was just a joke between each other. I didn't expect the little marquis to be so serious."

Chu Zhi explained to the old lady in a few words. After listening, the old lady was speechless for a while.

Her granddaughters are better than each other.

First, the fourth Prince looked at Xi'er. Today, Xiao Hou recognized zhi'er as a righteous sister. What is tomorrow?

The old lady didn't know whether to be angry or smile: "you'll really surprise me."

When Chu Zhi accompanied the old lady, Han Zhan was drinking tea with his legs crossed, shaking his head and feeling uncomfortable.

When she saw someone, the old lady quickly saluted: "my body, please greet the little marquis."

"Lao Taijun, please get up quickly." Han Zhan quickly helped the man up. "You are zhier's grandmother. You don't have to be so polite."

After saying this, he said to me humanely: "I recognized Chu Zhi as my sister under the witness of brother Yan. Today I come to explain to the old lady. I hope the old lady won't blame me."

The old lady hurriedly said, "what did you say? It's our blessing to win the favor of the young marquis. It's just that the young Marquis doesn't dislike our clumsiness!"

Han Zhan made the gift enough and gave the old lady a leather fan and a forehead inlaid with ruby.

"This is a gift from the Empress Dowager. It can't be used in the Hou's house. I'll give it to the old lady today. I hope the old lady won't dislike it."

The workmanship of the leather silk fan is a tribute. Moreover, the gem is extremely valuable.

It's also a gift from the Empress Dowager. It can't be described as expensive. What a glory it should be.

Afraid that the old lady had a burden, Han Zhan explained, "these empresses are allowed. You can give them away. Take them!"

Seeing Han Zhan's disapproval, the old lady no longer refused.

The old lady said a few words with Han Zhan, then left Chu Zhi to accompany Han Zhan and left by herself.

As soon as the old lady left, Han Zhan came up to Chu Zhi and offered a treasure: "how's it going? I'll find the place for you? It's nice to take out the fourth Prince's things and throw them on the street. I don't take a look at them. These I gave you were all appreciated in the palace. They are all treasures and unique."

Chu Zhi looked at countless things outside and was quite flattered: "you are such a loser. Be careful that the marquis will come back and punish you."

"Just this thing is a loser?" Han Zhan sniffed. "Then you haven't seen how many good things have been put in my warehouse. I dare say that the crown prince doesn't have as much as me."

"You really dare to say anything." Chu Zhi glared at him angrily, "be careful that evil comes out of your mouth."

Being stared by Chu Zhi, Han Zhan felt his heart beat fast again.

It's strange.

He twisted his eyebrows and covered his chest.

Seeing that he looked wrong, Chu Zhi asked, "what's the matter with you? But what's wrong?"

Han Zhan's heart beat faster with the worried eyes of Shang Chu Zhi.

He stretched out his hand and pushed Chu Zhi away with a folding fan. He looked disgusted: "stay away from me!"

Chu Zhi: "

Sure enough, Chu Zhi was far away from himself, and his heart beat steady.

Before Han Zhan could figure out why, Chu Zhi said, "you'd better take this thing back! It's too expensive for me to take it."

"What's the reason to take back the gift I sent out?" Han Zhan squinted at Chu Zhi. "If you don't throw it away."

Chu Zhi can't but take it.

Han Zhan asked, "I just said half. You said that the fourth prince had a crush on your sister. It's settled?"

"Not yet." Chu Zhi said, "but now it's a foregone conclusion."

Chu Zhi sighed.

Let's say that since queen Ren De left, the Li family has fallen in the West. Although they are valued by the emperor, they have no real power. Although the crown prince is knowledgeable, he has nothing to rely on. He can only rush forward alone.

Empress Chen seems to be kind, but in fact she has been planning for the fourth prince, otherwise the fourth prince will not be at the height of the sun.

Now the crown prince seems to be deeply sacred. In a few years, there will be a voice in the court asking the emperor to abolish the crown prince and establish a virtuous virtue. Naturally, this virtuous virtue refers to the fourth prince.

Just before the emperor made a decision, the prince was involved in a case and was finally poisoned by the thief.

Chu Zhi didn't know exactly what the case was. He only knew that it was related to the fourth prince.

But Chu Zhi couldn't help worrying at the thought that the fourth prince would rebel soon after the prince's death.

When the four princes rebelled in the previous life, Gu Changyan secretly turned back to the four princes, which saved the Chu house from its difficulties.

In this life, Chu Zhi will not marry Gu Changyan, but Chu Xi is still involved with the fourth prince, and I don't know how to deal with the Chu house at that time.

However, thinking of the friendship between the eldest brother and the sixth prince, I hope I can save the Chu house.

Han Zhan doesn't know that Chu Zhi is worried. She just thinks she is regretting and admiring Chu Xi's marriage.

He comforted Chu Zhi: "you don't have to be sad. Your sister married the fourth prince. It's just a concubine. For you and hairpin, I'll personally choose a good husband and ask you to sit on the head and be sure to be more beautiful than your sister. What do you think?"

Chu Zhi chuckled: "do you think I sigh because of this?"

"Otherwise?"

Chu Zhi thought Han Zhan was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, so he shook his head: "forget it, don't say this. What will happen to you in half a month?"

"Nothing should happen." Han Zhan asked, "what's the matter?"

Chu Zhi did not hide: "the fourth Prince invited the sisters in the house to attend the poetry fair in the name of the seven princesses. I don't want to go, but I want to go out in your name. Let's find a place to talk and drink tea. What do you think?"
