The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again

"Brother Cheng, if we leave like this today, are you really not afraid of being blamed by the Left Prime Minister's Mansion?"

In the inn room, Han Yu was neither standing nor sitting, feeling very uneasy.

"Brother Yu, don't worry. It's not that we didn't go. Those who were present at the time can testify for us that we did go, but were driven away by the evil slaves.

I believe that Zuo Xiang is not an unreasonable person, and we are not important people, so it is not worth their worrying about us."

Cheng Zeli held a book calmly, occasionally looking up at Han Yu.

"That being said, we will be given official positions after the palace examination, and I'm afraid he will be dissatisfied with us and interfere."

"So what? We haven't even taken part in the palace examination yet, but we openly enter and leave the Left Prime Minister's residence. In the eyes of outsiders, they will definitely think that we have already sided with the Left Prime Minister.

The situation in the capital is turbulent and unpredictable, and it is not something that small people like you and me can interfere with.

We should avoid it if we can, otherwise when the gods fight, the villains will suffer, and we won’t know when we will become cannon fodder.”

"After listening to Brother Cheng's words, I suddenly realized that I was short-sighted and shallow.

I hope Brother Cheng will give me more advice and suggestions in the future."

"You and I are brothers, no need to be so polite."

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door and the voice of the innkeeper was heard from outside.

"Cheng Huiyuan, Han Gongshi, are you two in the room?"

"Yes, what is the matter that the shopkeeper wants to see us about?"

Cheng Zeli winked at Cheng Si, who understood and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, the innkeeper squeezed in through the crack with a smile on his face.

"Cheng Huiyuan, Han Gongshi, the steward of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion is waiting for you two downstairs. Please come up and invite the two masters to come down."

"The Qin family's housekeeper?"

Han Yu and Cheng Zeli looked at each other and asked in surprise.

"That's right! If it's convenient for you two masters, please follow me down now."

Cheng Zeli: “No!”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his expression froze instantly.

He couldn't believe his ears.

Butler Qin represents the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. Does he know that offending Butler Qin is equivalent to offending the Left Prime Minister?

"Cheng Huiyuan, that person is from the Left Prime Minister's Mansion."

"I know, you heard me right, I'm not going."

"This...this...this..., how should I reply to him?"

The shopkeeper thought that these two people were simply crazy. He was the left prime minister, half of the power in the court.

If an ordinary person tries to get close to him, he may not even look at you.

These two are so good, Steward Qin even came to invite them personally, but they dared to say no.

Suddenly, he felt that his position in Zhuangyuan Building was in jeopardy. Could it be that these two idiots were getting too proud of themselves?

Do you think you can compete with Zuo?

"Boss, just tell him what I said. I still have to review my lessons, so I won't see you off."

This was an order to leave. Even if the shopkeeper was unwilling, he had to leave the room.

"Brother Cheng, what is that snob doing here?"

As soon as they returned to the inn, the Qin family steward chased after them. Han Yu couldn't help but be curious about their motives.

"The Left Prime Minister's Mansion shouldn't be so mean as to send a steward to cause trouble for us over such a trivial matter.

I guess the purpose of their visit is to invite us to a banquet."

"No way. Didn't he just kick us out? If he comes to our house this time, he will be slapping himself in the face."

"How can a servant like him have any say in the master's decision? Just wait and see. I bet he will come up in person."

As soon as he finished speaking, an angry voice came from downstairs.

"Not going? You are such a fool. I want to see how they can put on airs in front of the people from the Left Prime Minister's Mansion."

After that, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps coming from the stairs.

boom--

The door of Cheng Zeli's room was kicked open by someone from outside.

The debris fell on him and he just flicked it away.

Then he turned his head and looked sharply at the dumbfounded Qin housekeeper standing at the door.

"Why is it you!"

When Butler Qin saw the four people in the room clearly, he felt very uncomfortable and thought to himself that it seemed that the beating he received today was not unjust.

"Butler Qin, we meet again so soon. Could it be that this Zhuangyuan Building is also the property of the Qin family? We can't live here. Butler, you made a trip in person, and now you want to kick us out."

Faced with Cheng Zeli's undisguised sarcasm, Butler Qin was so angry that his teeth were about to break.

But when he thought that this person was the one that the Second Young Lady had personally requested to invite, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger, forcing a flattering smile on his face.

"This must be Cheng Huiyuan, right? Cheng Huiyuan, you must be joking. I was blind and did not recognize the great man before, so I misunderstood you two.

I was blind and deserve to die. I hope you can forgive me for this."

As he spoke, he slapped himself hard twice.

The force was so strong that it made those who saw it feel pain on his face.

"What's the point of talking about forgiveness or not? Butler Qin did nothing wrong.

The two of us are indeed not qualified to enter the Left Prime Minister's residence, and you are right to kick us out.

It's just a trivial matter, there's no need to waste your time chasing you here.

I'm sure your house must be very busy today. As the head of the house, if you waste your time because of a small person like me, and the Prime Minister finds out, I will be guilty of a great crime."

A few light words made the housekeeper's face turn pale and blue.

He suppressed the urge to turn around and leave, lowered his posture again, and directly revealed the purpose of his coming here.

"Cheng Huiyuan, I am here at the request of my master to invite you to a banquet at his mansion.

You also know that we are very busy in the Zuo Xiang Mansion today, I hope you can understand me and not be late, this will save our faces."

His words seemed sincere, but in fact they were full of threats.

Move out of the Qin Mansion's master and use your power to suppress others.

He was afraid of missing the appointment. If he didn't go, or went too late, he would be blamed by the Prime Minister's Mansion, which he could not bear.

"Heh, Butler Qin, are you threatening me?"

Cheng Zeli chuckled and tore off his hypocritical mask.

"Don't dare!"

The butler's heart tightened when he saw his eyes. He lowered his head, pretending to be respectful, with a twinkle in his eyes.

"It's not that Cheng didn't want to go. Cheng had been there, but you personally drove him out like a cat or a dog.

As a scholar, I, Cheng, may not be well-read, but I understand that a real man will not bow down for a few pieces of silver.

They are not cats or dogs that you can summon and dismiss at will."

boom--

After saying that, he stood up, slammed the table heavily, and glanced at the butler with eyes as sharp as a knife, as if he could see directly through his dark heart that could not stand the light of day.

Under his gaze, Butler Qin felt as if he had been stripped naked in public, leaving him nowhere to hide.

He avoided her gaze, not daring to look her in the eye.

For some reason, he saw the shadow of the left prime minister's mortal enemy in a scholar.
