Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

"No need, it's very nice here." Li Mo calmly hugged the flower girl next to him and drank the wine.

Jiang Hong set his sights on Yue Qinghe, raised his wine glass and said in a flattering tone: "Master He is really young and promising. He is only in his early twenties. He has become the governor at such a young age. He really has a bright future."

Yue Qinghe's face was cold, and the charcoal fire in the wing was warm, which was much warmer than outside.

On the way here, the streets were completely white and there was no one around.

Heavy snow has been falling continuously this month, and if the court does not allocate disaster funds, the people of Bin'er City may not be able to spend the new year.

Now that the disaster funds have just come in, these local officials are spending extravagantly and extravagantly, which is really hateful.

He was dissatisfied with the local officials' actions, so he did not take offense immediately. Instead, he raised his glass and touched it to Jiang Hong, and then drank it all in one gulp.

The flower girl next to him immediately came forward to pour him wine. The rich smell of powder on her body made him want to push her away.

But because of the overall situation, he finally endured it.

"Where are the two adults in charge of the disaster funds?" After a few glasses of wine, Yue Qinghe saw that Jiang Hong was trying to find out about him, so he directly asked to see the comfort envoy in charge of the disaster funds.

"Sir, don't be in a hurry. The two adults have gone to see the rice merchant first. They will definitely be able to meet you tomorrow, so I will let you entertain the two adults first." After Jiang Hong finished speaking, he asked the old bustard to bring the piano and chess. The flower girl plays the tune.

Yue Qinghe and Li Mo looked at each other and did not mention the disaster funds again.

On the second day, they did meet the pacifier and the rice merchant.

The rice merchant boss was a young man, and Li Mo still felt familiar.

Before he could recognize who the rice merchant boss was, the rice merchant boss recognized Li Mo first.

"Aren't you... Li Mo?" Zhao Qide patted Li Mo's shoulder. Seeing that Li Mo hadn't recognized him yet, he introduced himself, "I'm Zhao Qide."

Li Mo was surprised, "Zhao Qide! Why did you come to Bin'er City? By the way, you are also a merchant?"

Zhao Qide's reputation is the same as Li Mo's, they are both notorious playboys.

However, his father is the Minister of Hubu, and the Queen Mother is the aunt of the Minister of Hubu. Generally speaking, she is still related to Yue Qinghe and the others.

"Hey, it's not on the list, so I'll try to get into business." In fact, people in the official generation had shops, but they just didn't talk about it on the table.

The small amount of salary provided by the court is really not enough to support the family.

Therefore, many official households would choose wealthy merchants' families to get married in order to get financial help from wealthy merchants.

However, one cannot take the exam for fame in business, so some wealthy businessmen have to get married to official families to obtain the qualifications to take the exam.

Zhao Qide was very happy to meet people from Kyoto all the way away.

A banquet was held to entertain them. Although the Zhao family was related to the royal family, Zhao Qide had never seen Yueqing River, so he did not recognize Yueqing River.

So he accidentally drank too much. When he saw that Yue Qinghe was not interested in these flower girls, he said to Li Mo: "Brother Li, your friend has too high standards. The girls in our wing are all the most beautiful people in Jinyu Tower." Son."

Li Mo glanced at Yue Qinghe, who still looked cold, and laughed: "He is like this, he is relatively silent."

"But I see that Brother He is so handsome. The emperor has two princesses who have not yet left the palace. I think Brother He will definitely become the consort if he shows his face in front of the princess."

Li Mo still laughed, "Brother Zhao, please eat more food and don't just drink."

Although Zhao Chude is not kind, his character is not very good either.

But I have interacted with him several times, and I have never seen him do anything particularly bad.

It's better not to offend him by getting drunk and talking nonsense in front of Yue Qinghe.

"Really?" Yue Qinghe sneered, her dark eyes already a bit colder.

But obviously, the person sitting opposite him didn't notice at all. After drinking too much, he directly told the hateful thing in his life: "I tell you, I really almost became the prince-consort."

Almost?

What does this mean?

Li Mo felt something was wrong and hurriedly tried to persuade him to stop talking, "Brother Zhao..."

"Oh, what's the difference?" Yue Qinghe tightened his grip on the wine glass.

"My family is somewhat close to the royal family, and I have had a pretty good relationship with the eighth princess since childhood..."

"Isn't the Eighth Princess already married?" Li Mo interrupted him hastily. He wanted to ask this ancestor to stop talking.

"Listen to me and don't interrupt." Zhao Qide waved his hand, "It's the Ninth Princess."

Hearing this, Yue Qinghe's eyes suddenly turned cold, but his face showed a hint of interest.

Zhao Qide was already drunk, so he told what happened that day as a story.

"Just a few days after the Eighth Princess got married, the Eighth Princess suddenly asked her maid to come to me and said that she could help me connect with the Ninth Princess. I had the opportunity to enter the palace once before and met the Ninth Princess from a distance... Ninth The princess looks really pitiful, her little eyes, her skin... I will never forget her."

"When the Eighth Princess said this, I didn't have to respond immediately. But later when we arrived at the private room that the Eighth Princess' maid was talking about, the Ninth Princess was nowhere to be seen... The maid even explained to me that she had clearly drugged the Ninth Princess. Somehow, the Ninth Princess's people disappeared...I missed that opportunity, and I never want to deal with the Eighth Princess again..."

As Li Mo listened, cold sweat broke out from his back in the cold winter weather.

The wine glass in the hand of the man next to him suddenly cracked. He was so frightened that he stood up and cursed Zhao Qide, "Brother Zhao, you are confused. It is a capital crime to tarnish the princess."

"Didn't I meet anyone?" Zhao Qide still didn't realize Yue Qinghe's expression, and said with a little regret, "It's just a little bit close."

Li Mo couldn't listen anymore and walked up behind him and struck him on the back of the neck with his palm.

Zhao Qide lay on the table and fainted.

"Qingmu." Yue Qinghe called out the door of the wing.

Aoki immediately opened the door and walked in. The flower girls in the wing realized that something was going to happen and stood up one after another to go out.

Li Mo advised: "Your Highness, please don't be impulsive. After all, his father is the Minister of Household Affairs. If we kill him, we won't be able to explain to the emperor."

"Who said I was going to kill him?" Yue Qinghe chuckled, his eyes full of fearful evil, "Qingmu, destroy him for me."

"Yes!" Qingmu drew his sword and several flower girls were so frightened that they immediately fled from the side room.

Only one of the flower girls stopped at the door and said to the others with a pale face: "Sir, there is no need to take action...this...this Mr. Zhao is not good in the first place..."

Li Mo blurted out: "What's wrong?"

"It's just...it's just that he is inhumane to begin with. When Mr. Zhao came to Bin'er City, he tormented our girls in Jinyulou a lot, but every girl said that he was inhumane." After saying this, Hua Niang Escape from the wing quickly.

Li Mo suddenly realized what was going on, and felt a little secretly happy for no reason.

He walked up to Yue Qinghe and patted him on the shoulder: "Now, without us taking action, he is already worse than dead. Why does Your Highness have to do it again and dirty himself?"

Yue Qinghe glanced coldly at the man on the table and left Jinyu Tower with Qingmu.
