Chapter 323 I can tell where he is
Gift?
What gift can Chu Lan prepare for herself?
If you want to give a reward, just send it over. Why do you have to make it so mysterious?
What's more, he is the prince, and she is a virgin who has not left the court. It would be inappropriate for him to summon her in private.
Although he was suspicious, Wei Ruo had no choice but to agree.
Chu Lan invited her, but there was no option for her to refuse.
"Then Madam Lao will lead the way." Wei Ruo said.
"Don't be polite, young lady, please come with this old slave." Mother Qin said.
Wei Ruo took Xiumei, followed Mother Qin into the carriage sent by Chu Lan to pick her up.
The carriage brought Wei Ruo to Yu Sheng Tea House, and then led by Mother Qin, into a tea room.
Chu Lan was the only one in the tea room.
Wearing a dark green brocade robe with tufted flowers and a jade crown, she is sitting at the tea table by the window, sipping tea leisurely.
Outside the window is the East Lake with the same color of water and sky. The lake surface is sparkling, and the breeze blows from the lake surface into the tea room, stirring the green plants on the tea table.
The picture is very beautiful. If it is placed in front of Wei Qingruo in the original work, it will definitely be a burst of chest bumps.
It's a pity that in Wei Ruo's view, it was a jackal that ruined the beauty of this beautiful day.
"The daughter of the people has met His Highness the Seventh Highness." Wei Ruo saluted Chu Lan.
Chu Lan didn't reveal her real identity before, so Wei Ruo didn't need to salute when she saw him. Since he officially came to Taizhou Mansion as a military governor, Wei Ruo couldn't pretend not to know who he was when he saw him again.
"Miss Wei, please sit down." Chu Lan took a look at Wei Ruo and invited her to sit on the seat opposite her.
Wei Ruo knew that he couldn't refuse, so he walked over gracefully and sat down.
The last time I sat down to drink tea with Chu Lan was Xu Heyou, and there was a third person present at that time.
It was the first time to sit with Chu Lan as the prostitute of the Wei family, and this time there were only the two of them in the tea room.
"The last time I was in Xingshan County, I didn't tell Ms. Wei my real identity. Ms. Wei won't hold grudges, right?" Chu Lan said.
"Ministers don't dare." Wei Ruo lowered his head slightly, not looking into Chu Lan's eyes.
Wei Ruo slandered: If you really want to hold grudges, it’s not because you don’t have to reveal your identity. There are so many things I can hold grudges about with your big trotters in the original book.
"I heard from Nanny Qin that Miss Wei is as vigorous as a man, so why is she so timid in front of me?" Chu Lan asked.
"The women of the people are terrified. Your Highness is an aristocrat. The women of the people are just ordinary people. It is human nature to feel fear when seeing them." Wei Ruo replied.
Chu Lan smiled: "Forget it, no matter what, Ms. Wei's ingenuity is remarkable. This time, it is thanks to Ms. Wei that the Taizhou government has become a government envoy of Zhejiang Province to control the refugees and disasters." The best prefecture."
"This matter is not due to me alone. It is due to His Royal Highness and the County Lord understanding the common people. It is due to the government's love for the people like children. It is due to the unity of the Taizhou government." Wei Ruo said.
"To thank Ms. Wei, I have a gift for Ms. Wei." Chu Lan said.
If you really want to give it away, just reward me with a pile of gold. Why bother so much, let’s see if you want to give it away on purpose.
"No, this gift should be what you need right now, about the whereabouts of your eldest brother." Chu Lan said.
Wei Ruo paused, and then asked: "Your Highness, do you know where my elder brother is now?"
"Not only do I know, I also know what happened during this period." Chu Lan gave an affirmative answer.
Chu Lan observed Wei Ruo's expression while talking, and seemed very interested in Wei Ruo's reaction.
But Wei Ruo kept the expression on his face well controlled.
"Then thank you, Your Highness, my family is worried about finding the whereabouts of my brother." Wei Ruo said.
"Miss Wei, don't you want to hear what happened?" Chu Lan looked at Wei Ruo with great interest.
Wei Ruo didn't know what Chu Lan was planning, but felt that he was a hunter who was hunting, and she was the prey being targeted. This feeling made her very unhappy.
"Ministers don't dare to ask more questions. If His Highness is willing to tell you, the daughters will be very grateful." Wei Ruo replied, the content of the answer was very in line with the status of a cautious official lady.
"Miss Wei, do you know about the Qi family in the capital?"
Chu Lan began to explain Wei Ruo's doubts, but asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with this conversation.
"I heard a little bit." Wei Ruo replied.
The Qi family is the natal family of the concubine Qi, the birth mother of the sixth prince. The current head of the Qi family is Qi Zhengsong, the uncle of the sixth prince, who is also the chief assistant of the current cabinet.
This shows the current power and status of the Qi family.
Even if Wei Ruo doesn't care about the court affairs anymore, she still has heard about such a prominent family, not to mention she is also someone who knows the plot of the original book, so she naturally knows something about the hero's powerful rival in the original book.
"Master Qi, the chief assistant, has three sons under his knees. The eldest son died young, and the second son died in the Anti-Japanese War, leaving only the youngest son, Qi Zhen. Qi Zhen is known as a romantic in the capital. road.
"I heard some people in the family mentioned it." Wei Ruo replied.
Wei Ruo didn't know why Chu Lan suddenly brought up the matter of the Qi family. The Qi family was an upstart in the court, and the Wei family had long been powerless, and the two families had no intersection on weekdays.
Chu Lan continued: "Although this young master Qi is romantic, his ability to handle affairs is not bad. He helped his father and cousin with many things. I heard that he has come to Taizhou Mansion in recent days."
Qizhen people are in Taizhou Prefecture? That was probably aimed at Chu Lan, right?
But what does it have to do with the Wei family? A bad guess flashed in Wei Ruo's mind, Qi Zhen is so romantic and beautiful, could it be...
"Why did Mr. Qi come to Taizhou Mansion?" Wei Ruo followed Chu Lan's words and asked.
"I don't know what he came to Taizhou to do, but his nature of loving beauties makes him unable to move his legs when he sees the beauties in Taizhou. In Taizhou, if you want to count beauties, you must count your sisters from the Wei family Yes, especially Lingmei, who has the appearance of a lotus emerging from the water, and the color of a flower that is ashamed of a closed moon." Chu Lan said.
Chu Lan's words confirmed the bad guesses that flashed in Wei Ruo's mind just now.
Wei Ruo laughed a little in his heart, and the words that commented on Qi Zhen and Wei Qingwan came out of Chu Lan's mouth a little more funny.
You must know that if you follow the direction of the original book, it is not Qi Zhen but Chu Lan who is attracted by Wei Qingwan when he comes to Taizhou.
"Miss Wei is so smart, she should already understand what I mean." Chu Lan said.
"Your Highness, you mean that there is contact between sister She and Young Master Qi?" Wei Ruo said.
"The relationship may be deeper than what Miss Wei thought." Chu Lan said, picking up the teacup in front of him and playing with it, and continued to observe Wei Ruo's reaction from the corner of his eyes.
