The commander-in-chief is handsome and charming

Chapter 256: Not daring to ask for the position of legal wife

"Yeah!" Siqi looked at Shaoan, closed her eyes and waved her hand gently.

Until the person leaves his room.

Siqi sat down on the chair dejectedly.

How come all the capable people are in Dongling?

Leng Jue, who was in charge of the Ling family army when he was less than twenty years old.

I spent so much time and effort, but the poison had already been administered.

People will be exhausted to death by themselves.

result……

The poison in his body was actually eliminated.

And he appeared in Kyoto alive and well.

There were also those who single-handedly suppressed the court officials to the point of suffocation.

Ling Yun, who forced the little emperor to sit firmly on the throne.

Now there is another business genius, Cui Xiang.

Although I don’t want to admit it.

but……

In the next few decades at least, Southern Qi will probably be suppressed by Dongling.

Thinking of the prince cousin just now.

Then I thought of the little emperor of Dongling whom I met.

The two are obviously about the same age.

This cousin of mine is probably a little older than the little emperor of Dongling.

However, the little emperor has already firmly sat on the throne.

There is a hint of an emperor in him.

In comparison, Siqi's head looks bigger.

Why has the Sijia Army been staying at the border for so many years?

He sat in the room almost all night.

The next day I washed my face carelessly.

Arrange someone to deliver silver to the Cui family.

Because he didn't bring that much silver with him, the only thing he sent was a silver note for 20,000 taels.

There is also an IOU.

Cui Zhiyuan went to court early in the morning.

Cui Xiang looked at the IOU and smiled brightly.

"Okay, okay, Major General Siqi is indeed a man of his word."

"Thank you, General." He bowed to the person who came to deliver the gift.

The man returned the greeting with a stiff smile and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Cui Xiang looked at the IOU.

After thinking about it, I kept it close to my body.

This thing is very useful, you must not lose it.

He kept the IOU and asked someone to say hello to his mother.

I'm going to take people to that restaurant and keep an eye on it.

But before he could leave the house, a young eunuch arrived with the imperial edict.

When she saw him, she smiled and said, "Greetings, sir. Congratulations, sir."

He held the imperial edict high in his hand.

While Cui Xiang asked his personal servant to give him a reward, he prepared the incense table and knelt down to receive the imperial edict.

The little emperor mentioned it casually last night, and Cui Xiang expected that the imperial edict would definitely be sent down.

I just didn't expect it to come so soon.

I didn't expect that there was a surprise in this imperial edict.

In addition to the title of Dongling’s No. 1 Royal Merchant mentioned last night.

The young emperor was also very generous and gave him a fifth-rank honorary position.

Title: Doctor Jinzhu.

This title doesn't have much use, but it can be considered as a salary from the court.

Of course Cui Xiang didn't care about that little salary.

However, this title can make it much easier for him to do business.

He happily accepted the order.

He also generously slipped a silver note to the young eunuch and the errand guard.

Send the person away with a smile.

Then ask someone to take the imperial edict to the ancestral temple and keep it safe.

When Mrs. Cui heard the news and rushed over, Cui Xiang had already sent away the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict.

When he saw his mother, he straightened his robe and bowed down, "Hey, mother, your son is now also a fifth-rank official."

Mrs. Cui couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.

She said that her son has a promising future.

At least he is not like his father, who studied hard all his life.

The mother and son had a conversation.

Cui Xiang then got up and went to the restaurant.

only……

As soon as he got off the car, he met Miss Jane, who was wearing a veil.

Although she was wearing a veil, she was very easy to identify.

Those watery eyes are impossible to forget once you have seen them.

Cui Xiangren stood in front of the restaurant, smiling as he watched Miss Jian being helped out of the car by a maid.

"Miss Jane, what a coincidence." He greeted with a red face.

The man stood on the steps, smiling brightly.

Miss Jian stood on the steps, looking at the smiling Cui Xiang.

There was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.

If it weren't for the palace banquet yesterday, this person would have embarrassed me greatly.

She was afraid that she would be deceived by his harmless appearance again.

But now.

The man stood in front of the door and gave Cui Xiang a gentle nod, "Master Cui."

"Miss, are you here to have dinner?" Cui Xiang asked with a smile.

The shopkeeper on one side came over hurriedly and said, "Miss, shall we go to the private room upstairs or..."

"Upstairs!" Miss Jane nodded at him.

Then he turned his head to look at Cui Xiang and asked, "Sir, could you please move over and have a chat?"

Cui Xiang looked at her and his eyes flashed slightly.

Then he smiled and nodded.

The two of them went upstairs one after the other.

The shopkeeper smiled and wiped the table himself, then began to introduce the dishes in the restaurant.

Miss Jian raised her hand gently and said, "Just serve a few side dishes. I would also like to try the peppers."

"Also, to avoid hurting your throat, give me two more light dishes."

After she gave the instructions in a gentle voice, the shopkeeper looked at Cui Xiang.

The latter smiled and nodded, so the shopkeeper bowed and retreated. "Okay, wait a moment, girl."

After the shopkeeper left, Miss Jane turned around and looked at her maid.

"I want to have a few words with Master Cui. You can leave as well."

She spoke in a soft voice, and the maid looked at her and then at Cui Xiang on the side.

After hesitating for a moment, he retreated.

"Mr. Cui." Miss Jian looked at Cui Xiang with a faint smile in her watery eyes.

Reaching out to pour a cup of tea for Cui Xiang, he spoke in a light voice, "My last name is Jian, and they call me Jian'er."

"I named myself Jian Chenyan."

This opening of hers made Cui Xiang confused as to what she meant.

So he just smiled and said nothing.

Until the person opposite raised his hand and took off his veil.

The two of them sat opposite each other, and Cui Xiang did not expect her to suddenly do such a thing.

I was stunned for a moment.

Jian Chenyan is naturally beautiful, with watery eyes and scarlet lips.

Seeing Cui Xiang's dull expression, she pushed the tea in front of her towards Cui Xiang.

"I heard that Mr. Cui is a businessman, so..."

"I want to discuss a deal with you, sir."

Cui Xiang blinked, looked at the tea that was brought to him, and then looked at Jian Chenyan who had been deliberately lowering her voice.

The redness on his face faded almost instantly.

The man leaned lazily on the back of the chair.

He touched the teacup gently.

He tapped his fingertips along the edge and glanced at the door of the private room.

"Oh? Miss Jane is planning to marry me?"

He smiled quite happily, and Jian Chenyan looked at him.

His fingers scratched the table unconsciously.

Cui Xiang's gaze paused on her jade-white fingertips.

Jian Chenyan's voice was filled with a sigh, "I also want to marry you."

"It's a pity that I have no money."

"But I don't want to miss you, so...if you don't mind, can you keep me by your side?"

"Compared to the betrothal gift you ask for, I just want to have enough food and clothing."

After she said this, her hand that was moving on the table stopped.

Cui Xiang sat on the chair and looked at the woman with a peaceful face.

Thought about it for a moment.

He reached out, picked up the tea on the table, and took a sip with a smile.

"Girl, I have no intention of getting married."

"I don't even dare to ask for the position of the main wife." Jian Chenyan looked at Cui Xiang with burning eyes.

Her watery eyes were full of seriousness.

Cui Xiang blushed and coughed awkwardly.
