Chapter 193 There Is a Saying, Boiled Frogs in Warm Water

This afternoon, in a corner of the tea house, the young man was eloquently talking about his various favors in the Liu family, and his brows were beaming.

The woman clasped her hands and supported her chin, listening with relish, a smile always hung on the corners of her mouth.

The young man, who was so excited, didn't even notice that the woman's eyes never left him for a moment.

After drinking two pots of good tea, Qian Wanjin slowly stopped.

"If you want to talk about the Liu family and Xinghua Village, it will take three days and three nights to talk about it. If you are interested, I will tell you about it next time, but I will tell you in advance, don't have any illusions about me, chat is just chat, I won't like you. Yes, and I won't marry you!"

The woman smiled and didn't answer.

Qian Wanjin's heart was a little dazed, and she didn't understand what her smile meant. She always felt that... it was malicious.

After thinking about it for a while, Qian Wanjin asked cautiously, "You seem to be nineteen years old this year, and you are still an old girl. Seriously, no one wants you, so my family wants to give me advice. Honey, did you just invite you?"

"What do you think?"

Again, answering it made him more depressed than not answering.

If he knew the exact answer, would he need to ask her more?

Seeing that the young man was on guard again, the woman said slowly, "Actually, you don't need to keep reminding me, I understand what you're thinking. But why don't you think about it the other way around, even if I take the initiative to quit this time, you and I have nothing to do with it. , but will your family let it go? You'll have to negotiate again and again until you compromise. Rather than keep repeating that torture, it's better to keep our marriage, and you can both be freed from the endless oppression, said Maybe you can get back your freedom earlier. What's wrong?"

"Of course it's not good, I want to be free, then I have to marry you! Otherwise my father won't let me go! I don't want to get married!"

"If you don't want to, then you won't be married."

Qian Wanjin's eyes popped, "What did you say?"

"I said, if you don't want to, then you won't get married. I can help you solve this matter."

"Are you serious? Are you kidding me?"

"What am I coaxing you to do?" The woman hooked her lips and smiled, "Let me, the daughter of the dignified general's mansion, force the man to get married? I also want face. We only need to keep this marriage between us, and if you get rid of it, my father doesn't have to. Worrying about the gray hair for my marriage is just for mutual benefit."

Qian Wanjin is about to go crazy with joy. If what she said is true, then he is hopeful of liberation!

It's just that after the ecstasy, Qian Wanjin squeezed and pretended, "You are really old, if you keep marrying me, I won't marry you, and I will break the engagement one day later. But she's really become an old aunt."

"It doesn't matter, I don't want anyone anyway, didn't you say?"

Qian Wanjin was embarrassed, he was angry. Although Shi Xianrou is not the type he likes, she is not bad-looking, and she has a strong background. Speaking of being engaged to the Qian family, it is the Qian family's high ranking. It is impossible that none of the powerful children in Beijing have ideas about her.

Made him feel a little guilty.

"Cough, since that's the case, then we've made an agreement. Of course, if you meet someone you like in the future, as long as you say something, I can break the engagement with you at any time!"

"Okay." The woman's smile became brighter, and Qian Wanjin didn't understand the deep light flashing in her beautiful eyes.

There is a saying in this world that he probably forgot.

It's called, boiled frog in warm water.

Money is hers.

Qian Wanjin was immersed in excitement, and his back suddenly became cold for a moment, which was ignored by him.

"In this case, when you take me home later, please help me and my father to beg for mercy, and say that our business is settled, let him let me go? I still have a lot of things to do, and business can't be lost. I don't care, the orders from Xinghua Village Winery are still with me, if I don't send them back in time, I will lose a lot of money!"

"it is good."

...

Palace, Cining Hall.

The middle-aged lady stood in front of the windowsill, holding a pair of golden scissors in her hand, and patiently trimmed the bonsai.

The palace maid walked in, "Niangniang, Miss Fu is here."

"Let her in."

"Yes."

Outside the palace gate, slowly walked into a figure of Pingting, with a graceful figure, a light blue gauze skirt that complemented the person so neat and slender.

"Fu Yuzheng has seen the empress." The woman knelt down.

"Get up." Without turning around, the lady's voice was faint, and she couldn't hear her emotions. "You heard the news from there."

"Hui Niangniang, Yuzheng already knows."

"The emperor is only ten years old. Why is he suddenly interested in the winery. I think it is the regent's intention. The emperor can only agree."

"Yuzheng dare not speculate."

"Xinghua Village Winery, the property of the Qian family in the capital." The lady paused, "These years, the Qian family has been held down by my Liu family, and I have long been unconvinced in my heart, but the capital is not strong enough to turn around. There are those kinds of exotic fruit wines, and the Qian family’s glory has long since disappeared. The prince regent is suddenly interested in a small winery. Could it be that he has the intention to support the Qian family and fight against my Liu family?”

"Yuzheng has never heard Wang Ye mention this, so I don't know the specifics."

"Over the years, you have been very good at your skills. You speak without leaking, so that people can't make mistakes." The lady put down the scissors in her hand, turned around slowly, and stared at the woman standing with her head bowed. Xiwu sneered, his voice soft and slow, "If he doesn't mention it, just ask. Don't forget who you are, if the Liu family suffers a loss, you may not be able to sleep well either. Since you can stay safe in the Nanling Palace. After staying for so many years, you have your own means. Here in this palace, there is no need to be too modest."

Fu Yuzheng's eyes darkened, "Yuzheng dare not."

"I'm waiting for your news. As soon as possible, the regent has been out with the emperor for a long time. It's time to come back. There can't be no one in the court all the time. You can urge it."

"Yes."

Bowing her head and bowing, she stepped back and walked far away from the gate before the woman turned her head slowly.

Looking at the three characters of Cining Hall, which was refracted by the sunlight in the distance, and wrote about the dragon, his eyes were cold.

Out of the palace gate, the door is the carriage of the Nanling Palace.

Although she was only a maid in the Nanling Palace, her status was different from that of ordinary maids.

Everyone knows that she is the savior of King Nanling. King Nanling is grateful and treats her differently.

Only she knows, no.

She is just a pawn.

It's a pawn for both sides.

And she knew that, in order to survive, for the obsession in her heart, she was willing to desperately try to survive in the cracks.

The Nanling Palace is located in Wutong Lane, which is the closest to the imperial palace, with a surrounding area of ​​100 meters. No one dares to live next to the Nanling Palace.

This low-key and luxurious mansion is the most important symbol of status and power in Beijing.

Its owner, the King of Nanling, is an existence higher than the emperor.
