Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 230

"I say, that's enough!" Dongsheng watched and knew that if he didn't remind Dongxu, this man would become a wife-waiting stone. The problem was, their young lady was not his wife.

If this really angers the prince, Dongxu may not be able to gain anything good.

"You don't understand!" Dongxu felt bitter at this moment.

Originally, he thought that as long as he worked hard enough, he would be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

But why, after trying so hard, he married someone else?

Thinking of this, Dongxu took another sip of wine.

I want to suppress the discomfort in my heart.

He is not reconciled!

"What don't I understand? I just know, Miss, this never belonged to you!" Dongsheng sighed. He only felt grateful towards the Miss. If the Miss hadn't rescued her, she would have died under the knife of the bandits.

Over the years, he has worked hard for the young lady, just to repay her for saving his life in his own way.

As for whether he had any feelings for the young lady, he was very clear about his status and knew that he was not worthy of the young lady, so even his love for her could only be hidden in his heart.

He was worried when he saw the young lady getting married, but he also gave his blessing.

As long as the young lady is fine, that person will not be him. All he has to do is to silently guard the young lady.

"Why didn't she wait for me!" Dongxu punched the tree beside him unwillingly.

The blood on his hands flowed down the tree trunk.

"That's enough. You still have to accompany the young lady to do some business tomorrow!" Dongsheng reminded quickly.

"I can't even vent my anger?" Dongxu asked self-deprecatingly.

"If you like someone, you don't have to own her, right? As long as she is happy!" Dongsheng advised.

Dongxu was stunned after hearing Dongsheng's words. Doesn't he have to have her?

Is that like it?

"Think about it yourself. I'm tired and will go to rest first. You can find a room for yourself later. Go to bed early!" Dongsheng said and went back to his room.

He didn't want to go crazy with this guy.

When Liu Ruolin returned to the Liu family in Beijing, she looked unhappy.

"Where have you been?" Liu Yucheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his daughter come back.

He returned to the capital this time because he had important matters to attend to, and his daughter insisted on coming with him. He could not withstand Liu Ruolin's offensive, so he brought her along.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned home, he heard from the servants that Liu Ruolin had been out for a whole day and had not returned yet. He was worried that Liu Ruolin was in danger in this unfamiliar place.

What's more worrying is that Liu Ruolin might offend someone in the capital. After all, the capital is not like Liucheng, where there are important people everywhere.

Any random person could be the family member of a second or third rank official.

But it's not something they can afford to accuse.

"Dad, I'm just curious and want to go out for a walk." Liu Ruolin took Liu Yucheng's arm obediently and said coquettishly.

"This is the capital, not Liucheng. If something happens, dad can't help you." Liu Yucheng patted his daughter's hand and said.

"Dad, you make it sound like I'm a troublemaker." Liu Ruolin said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"How could my Ruolin be a troublemaker? It's just that daddy is incompetent and afraid that something might happen to you, so he told you in advance." Liu Yucheng felt that his daughter was just a little willful and it was not a big problem.

"Dad, I saw my cousin today." Liu Ruolin was talking to Liu Yucheng about another thing.

"Which cousin?" Liu Yucheng thought to himself, when did that Yang family member have the good fortune to enter the palace?

"Father, it's His Royal Highness the Second Prince. He was going to invite me to Deyue Tower for dinner, but it was all because of that stinky woman!" Liu Ruolin felt angry when she thought about how Xiao Chulian had ruined her plans today. She secretly decided in her heart that she would not let her get away with it the next time she saw Xiao Chulian.

"Ruolin, this is the capital, you should be careful in what you do. Besides, now that the second prince is married, you should..." Liu Yucheng sighed in his heart. He naturally knew that his daughter liked Chu Haojue.

However, his wife, Mrs. Tan, had actually mentioned this matter to Empress Xian.

Empress Xian did not agree. After all, with her daughter's family background, she did not dare to say that she was worthy of the Second Prince. After that, she never mentioned the matter again.

"Dad, I have liked cousin Jue since I was a child. You know that. Now, I know that he is married. But I just want the status of a concubine. Is that not possible?" Liu Ruolin looked at Liu Yucheng with tears in her eyes and asked.

Seeing his daughter so sad, Liu Yucheng felt very sad.

He is useless and cannot give his daughter what she wants.

"Dad, please, I have been begging you. I have lost my mother to raise me since I was young. Now my stepmother always puts her children first. I only have you, my father, who can make decisions for me! I have never asked you for anything since I was young. Can't you even ask for this small thing?" Liu Ruolin knew that tears were the best weapon. She knew that her father was soft-hearted towards her. As long as she mentioned it, no one could make decisions for her, and her father would agree to her request.

If Tan Xiying knew, and Liu Ruolin knew, that her stepdaughter, whom she treated like her own daughter, usually spoke of her like this in front of her husband.

I imagine he would be furious.

Liu Yucheng sighed deeply. He felt sorry for his daughter who had lost her mother since childhood. He felt that since Tan Xiying was not her biological mother, there must be some things that she was not so considerate of.

However, this matter still requires Tan Xiying to go and talk to Empress Xian.

Otherwise, with his status, let alone finding someone to talk about this, even wanting to meet them would be difficult.

Qiao family

"You said that you went to Domi Mountain today just to investigate the missing men?" Chu Haojue stood up in shock when he heard that.

He also heard that many young men had disappeared in the surrounding area recently. However, none of their families had filed complaints with the authorities, so it was not easy for them to investigate.

"You said, is it normal for an old man to appear in the deep mountains in gorgeous clothes? He said that he went up the mountain to collect herbs and got separated from his servant. However, doctors who can go up the mountain to collect herbs are usually ordinary doctors. It is even more impossible for them to be willing to wear gorgeous clothes to go up the mountain to collect herbs, right?" Qiao Anan analyzed carefully with Chu Haojue.

"I'll immediately send someone to keep an eye on Dong'an Lane." Chu Haojue now understood that there was something fishy about this matter.

They don’t know what conspiracy is here, but what kind of thing requires a large number of young men?

"You should also ask someone to check. Have you heard of anyone recruiting soldiers recently?" Qiao Anan thought, in the novels she had read in the past, did they always say that when something is abnormal, there must be something wrong?

She really suspected that someone was raising private soldiers.

Otherwise, why aren’t we seeing those missing old people, women, and beautiful girls?
