Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me
Chapter 48: The hanging heart finally died
In Cheng Mansion, Murong Xuan was sitting in the main hall, and Shen Xiyue, dressed as a guard, was standing beside him with her head lowered.
The person sitting below was Cheng Su.
Cheng Su was very nervous. The people who were poisoned in Suzhou disappeared without a trace, and the prince did not mention it. He had to pretend that he didn't know, but he felt very uneasy.
Murong Xuan chuckled: "Your son Congxian is really as his name suggests. He actually brought people to Suzhou to help repair the river embankment. It seems that Master Cheng really has a good upbringing!"
what?
Repair the river embankment?
Cheng Su's face was full of disbelief. He just couldn't connect Cheng Congxian and the river embankment repair together!
How could he not know that his son was good at teasing cats and dogs, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling? If he was asked to do something serious, it would be harder than climbing to the sky? !
Is he as good as his name? He has nothing to do with the word "Congxian"!
Don't get into any trouble!
Thinking of this, Cheng Su slid down from the chair and fell to his knees with a plop: "Your Highness, my son is naughty and it is my fault for not taking good care of him. He dared to go to Suzhou to cause trouble without permission. I will go find him and punish him severely!"
Cheng Su's face was filled with grief.
Murong Xuan put down the tea bowl lightly: "Master Cheng, please stand up. I really don't mean that. Repairing the river bank is a major event that benefits the country and the people. Your son has a sense of justice and should be rewarded."
He pretended to be innocent, but he was very good at it.
Cheng Su was wavering. Even if his eldest son really reformed, there was still Prince Qi standing in the way. It was impossible for him to ask for help in repairing the river bank!
This...what on earth is going on!
His heart was in a state of ups and downs. The prince had praised him twice, and it seemed that he had indeed worked very hard on his cultivation. But what was going on? He really didn't understand.
Just as he was thinking about it, a servant came in and reported: "Sir, the banquet for the chapel has been delivered."
Murong Xuan curled the corners of his lips and changed the subject: "Master Cheng is thoughtful."
Cheng Su did not bother to think any more and quickly got up: "Your Highness, I have specially asked someone to order some seasonal fresh fish. They have been kept in the river and are waiting for Your Highness to come! Please move in and take your seat."
Murong Xuan nodded, stood up and walked out, and Shen Xiyue hurriedly followed him.
Cheng Su followed him out of the door and was on his way to the dining room when he was suddenly stopped by Master He who bumped into him head-on: "Sir..."
"What's the matter? You are so flustered and reckless, aren't you afraid of offending His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
The sweat on Cheng Su's forehead had not yet dried when he met this person who came to cause trouble for him, and he quickly scolded him.
Master He kowtowed to Murong Xuan again and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince. I have something to report to Master Cheng. In a moment of haste, I offended His Royal Highness. Please forgive me!"
Murong Xuan waved his hand casually, facing the sudden breeze, and coughed twice: "It's okay, since there is something important, I will report it first."
Cheng Su's face looked unhappy. He usually valued Master He's steadiness. What happened to him today?
Master He stumbled to his feet and tried to whisper to Cheng Su, but Cheng Su was deliberately acting. He felt that as a subject he should not hide anything in front of the Crown Prince, so he pretended to rebuke him, "Just say it straight!"
"Sir!" Master He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. This was not something he could say in front of outsiders!
After thinking it over, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and hint, "Sir, the workers that the young master brought to repair the river bank were pulled over from the dock!"
Cheng Su finally realized that something was wrong. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Murong Xuan, and his expression immediately changed. He turned his head and stared at Master He, his voice full of nervousness:
"pier?"
Seeing that Cheng Su finally realized the seriousness of the problem, Master He could not help but complain: "He pulled all the workers on the dock over! The cargo ship has docked, and they are all waiting to unload!"
Lord Cheng knows the details of this matter very clearly!
Cheng Su desperately told himself that he had to stay calm... stay calm... just stay calm... don't let the prince notice anything is wrong!
We can figure out a way to deal with the matter at the dock later. There are so many people in Hangzhou, is there no one to unload the goods?
Master He's voice was not loud, but Murong Xuan seemed to have a thousand-mile ear and asked with a smile: "Master Cheng, are you still doing business?"
Shen Xiyue glanced at Master He, then at Murong Xuan, and her gaze finally fell on Cheng Su. She sighed slightly. It seemed that she would not be able to eat shad today.
Cheng Su calmed himself down and tried to explain as if he didn't care: "Yes... yes, my wife owns a few shops, but they are not very successful, not very successful."
Murong Xuan nodded: "It's not easy for a woman to run a household, so it's reasonable for her to do some business to supplement the family income."
"Yes, yes, Your Highness is kind-hearted..." Cheng Su had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Murong Xuan ask again: "What kind of business is your wife doing?"
Cheng Su felt a chill on his back and said incoherently, "It's just a little mountain product business! After all, it's a woman's dowry shop, and I haven't asked too much about it..."
"Mountain products~" Murong Xuan seemed very interested, and he caught up with his words and continued: "I heard that Madam Cheng's family is from Diancheng. The mountain products and mushrooms in Diancheng are really unique!"
"Your Highness, you are too kind... too kind..." Cheng Su broke out in a cold sweat.
Murong Xuan added: "Since we have already reached the shore, we need to unload the mushrooms into the warehouse quickly! Otherwise, they will be soaked in moisture and won't taste good."
Cheng Su's heart was in his throat. What did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by saying this?
He quickly responded: "Yes, yes, I will go and call someone..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Murong Xuan: "Oh, I forgot, all the workers on the dock were loaned to Suzhou by Master Cheng. This is my fault!"
Cheng Su felt his legs go weak and he didn't know what to say.
He suddenly realized that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was clearly asking questions with the answer in mind.
Murong Xuan was very enthusiastic: "Your Highness cares about the people and is helping me repair the river bank. I can't afford to disrupt Madam's business. How about this... I'll ask someone to do the unloading for you."
"Your Highness..."
Cheng Su fell to his knees with a thud, his heart finally hanging in the balance.
