Chapter 238: The first obstacle on the way to courtship

"Isn't that something you've gotten used to?" Kang Shilin sneered, "If you didn't support him all day long and step down on aristocratic families and civil servants, wouldn't he know that the sky is high and the earth is high?"

"Don't talk about Ping Nanhou, just look at Wei Qiu. Just because he is from a poor family, you want to support him and step on the aristocratic family. The result, look what you have done? He is flattering all day long.

, and you dare to kill people and seize an official position. How audacious are you?"

"I didn't expect Wei Qiu to do such a thing." Xiao Ge also sighed.

"It's okay for you. You're not too confused. Go and protect Wei Qiu, otherwise I will point your nose in your nose and scold you." Kang Shilin knew the meaning of giving a sweet jujube a slap in the face. It's just that this sweet jujube never came out.

When he handed it out in his hand, it tasted a bit sour, and it always sounded like something bad.

"Cousin, you are always watching me, so I don't dare to be confused." Xiao Ge said with a shy smile, "You have to take good care of yourself, watch me carefully, and don't let me do stupid things."

Kang Shilin waved his hand: "Don't bother me, I'm too lazy to care about your nonsense. Do you think you have a long life or something?"

He drank the tea in one sip, clapped his hands and stood up: "Okay, I'm going back. Let's make it clear. My little apprentice taught those bastards in the Yamen, one thousand five hundred taels per person. This is hard work, you want

Write it clearly. The officials in your yamen still get salary for their work. Don’t let people chew on my girl’s tongue just because of this small amount of money. In addition, don’t let people from Pingnanhou Mansion come to the door of my girl’s house.

My little apprentice is so lucky that I can't bear it."

Throwing these words away, he Shi Shiran went back.

After returning from the palace to Kang's house, as soon as he got off the carriage, Kang Shilin saw a young man from the Fu family standing at the door of his house. Looking at his resolute face and straight back, he guessed it without any help from the attendants around him.

Who is coming?

When Fu Yunkai saw Kang Shilin getting out of the car, he quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Fu Yunkai of Pingnan Marquis Mansion, please pay your respects to Mr. Kumu."

Kang Shilin waved his hand: "I don't dare to do it. I have no official position and I can't afford the courtesy of General Fu."

As he said that, he ignored Fu Yunkai and walked directly inside.

Fu Yunkai quickly followed: "I don't dare. I came here specifically to apologize to Mr. Kumu."

"Then I wouldn't dare. Little General Fu is right, why should he apologize? The young man and the young general have never met and have nothing to do with each other. There is no way to talk about this."

Fu Yunkai cupped his fists and saluted again: "It's a long story. It's all my younger brother's fault. I whipped my younger brother before I came here. Please give me a chance to apologize, Mr. Kumu."

Only then did Kang Shilin stop and took a look at Fu Yunkai.

Fu Yunkai stood there with his head slightly lowered, letting Kang Shilin look at him, but his heart was beating like a drum.

As long as Mr. Deadwood is willing to let him in, he has a chance to gain Mr. Deadwood's favor.

Kang Shilin nodded: "Your father has raised a good son."

Fu Yunkai was just wondering what Kang Shilin's words meant, whether it was praise or ridicule, when he heard Kang Shilin continue: "Okay, you can go back, there is no need to apologize. Just now in the palace, the emperor has pacified the Nanhou Mansion for you.

I apologize. If I make things difficult for you, you will not give the emperor face. Go back."

With that said, Kang Shilin continued to walk inside. Fu Yunkai wanted to follow and say a few words, but was stopped by a servant of the Kang family.

"Thank you Mr. Kumu for your consideration. I will discipline my brother well and prevent him from getting into trouble again." Fu Yunkai could only shout loudly at Kang Shilin's back.

"That's your family's business, as long as it's worthy of the emperor." Kang Shilin stepped into the threshold without looking back, and his back disappeared through the door.

Fu Yunkai stared at the door blankly and smiled bitterly.

His father also wanted to compete with these civil servants from aristocratic families and test his weight in the emperor's heart. It was simply foolish and naive.

All of them are old foxes with thousands of years of experience. In front of these people, Pingnanhou Mansion is not enough.

Not to mention anything else, just look at Mr. Kumu. From the outside, he seems to be devoted to painting and never pays attention to worldly things. He is even a bit ignorant of the world. He seems to be able to scold anyone he doesn't like.

He was just a master who, relying on his status as the emperor's elder and his friendship with the late emperor, acted recklessly and was not afraid of anyone.

But listen to what this old gentleman said just now. How good are they?

What they meant, both overtly and covertly, was that they, the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, relied on their ideas and military exploits, and relied on the emperor's favor to bully others. Not only did they not abide by their duties as ministers, they also dared to steal other people's things, causing trouble for the emperor to deal with the aftermath, and dragging them down.

The emperor's reputation.

The hidden agility here can kill people!

Just now in front of Dali Temple, he was grateful to his brother for giving him the opportunity to meet Miss Zhao Wu, but now he was in a low mood.

After what happened today, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to win Mr. Kumu's favor. I don't know if Mr. Kumu will be an obstacle to him in his quest for marriage.

No matter what, he must decide on this match; he must marry Miss Zhao Wu.

He stood in the evening breeze and exhaled a long breath: "Go back."

After thinking for a while, he turned another corner: "Go to the second prince's villa."

Xiao Lingpu has not yet gotten married and has not opened a mansion outside. But he is considered an adult and does not need to be detained in the palace to study like Xiao Lingyan. On weekdays, except for going to the court on errands, he always likes to stay in other courtyards.

He won't go back to the palace until it gets dark and goes to bed.

When Fu Yun drove to the other courtyard, he found Xiao Lingpu standing on the porch feeding the birds himself, whistling twice from time to time to make the birds chirp.

"Your Highness." Fu Yunkai walked over and saluted him.

Xiao Lingpu glanced at him, threw the things to the servants, washed his hands in the basin brought by the maid, and asked, "You haven't eaten yet?"

Fu Yunkai smiled bitterly: "No. I just went around and apologized and came back."

Xiao Lingpu was the prince, and as soon as Fu Yunkai left him, he sent someone to inquire about the news, so he naturally knew what happened today.

He asked: "What do you plan to do with Yun Lang?"

Fu Yunkai understood that the punishment he was talking about was not about beating with a board, whipping, or kneeling as a punishment, but how to teach Fu Yunlang.

"I plan to send him to the border once he recovers from his injuries," he said.

Xiao Lingpu nodded: "That's very good."

He was about to enter the house, but after taking two steps he stopped, looked at the sky, frowned and looked at his eunuch Xiao Fuzi: "Go and see, why doesn't the fifth prince come over? Even if he wants to stay in the palace with you.

The imperial concubine should send someone to tell her when she is eating."

"Yes." Xiao Fuzi bowed and was about to turn around when his master said, "Don't enter the palace yet. Let's see if he is next door."
