In the Lingnan Prince's Mansion, Bai Ren Shuo retreated everyone, lowered his voice and asked anxiously: "What's the matter with me? Whose idea is this?"

Cen Chaoge frowned and whispered: "It's Princess Dunsu's meaning."

"Princess Dunsu..." Bai Ren has also heard that the princess's husband's family is a big family in the imperial city, and has been of great strength for generations. Princess Dunsu is an important figure in the royal family. Bai Ren remembered the secret of the royal family that Dong Boru told him the day before yesterday. Qi Xiao was actually the legitimate son of Emperor Wu. This made it understandable. Princess Dunsu is Qi Xiao's legitimate aunt, much closer than the emperor. It is natural to be determined to plan for Qi Xiao. Bai Ren is getting more and more troublesome, "Is Princess Dunsu asking for his sister?"

Cen Chaoge shook his head: "It seems not... I heard that Princess Dunsu mentioned it on the day she returned to the palace. She said that it was time to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to mention our princess. But at that time, she did not decide which princess was, but later for some reason she decided to ask Princess Roujia. It took only one or two days to go, so it was impossible to send someone to see her. Why... I don't know this anymore."

Bairen pursed his lips slightly: "Then I said so... the emperor may not know it yet. Even if he knew it, he never said with his father and the others... there is still room for improvement, and there is still..."

Bai Ren looked out the window silently and secretly planned it in his heart. Cen Chaoge hesitated and advised: "Your Highness, in fact, Princess Roujia is here, it is not harmful to Your Highness. Your Highness also knows that it would be much better if the Princess came."

"Even you say that?" Bai Ren felt very disappointed. "Chaoge, we grew up together. Don't you know your sister's temperament? If she enters the prince's mansion, the prince will marry the prince's concubine in the future and take a few concubines... can my sister still have a life?"

Cen Chaoge didn't say anything, and smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not for you. Now we are in an awkward situation and need someone to rescue you. Although I am not familiar with His Royal Highness, just from what I saw and heard in the past few days, if His Royal Highness can get the green eyes of the Prince's Palace, his life will definitely be much better in the future."

Bai Ren was anxious, and he was not willing to listen to these things. He frowned and shook his head, "I said this and didn't think about it... You have been tired these two days. Let's go and take a break first, and I'll think about the countermeasures..."

Cen Chaoge couldn't help but comfort Bai Ren and then came out. He didn't want to leave the main hall and met Dong Boru who came to find Bai Ren. Cen Chaoge bowed: "Mr. Dong."

Dong Boru nodded and asked about the marriage. Cen Chaoge still answered and sighed, "Sir, it's not that I'm cruel. You can see the current situation. Just because we have been in trouble with the imperial city over the years, there are no distant relatives here. Our Lingnan Prince's Mansion is like an isolated island in this capital, and no one can rely on it. After finally having the path of the prince, Your Highness will push it."

Dong Boru sighed: "Isn't this what I advise Your Highness? But Your Highness also has his difficulties... Alas, it would be better if he could push it. How can a real man holds his head to the earth and entrust the misfortune to the weak woman?"

Cen Chaoge smiled bitterly: "I used to say this, but I only understood the depth after coming to the imperial city... Forget it, since it was your nobleman's intention, I would do it even if I was heartbroken. I only learned this news after walking around for two days. I am really ashamed. Let's go in first, and I will go find a way."

Dong Boru knew his difficulties and nodded and went in.

Cen Chaoge took a deep breath and left the Lingnan Prince's Mansion and went to a restaurant west of the city.

Cen Chaoge asked the servant to set up a private room in the restaurant in advance, and specially ordered their best chef to carefully prepare a banquet. At the time of Si Cen Chaoge rushed to the restaurant and waited until the noon when the person he invited came slowly.

"Sir Xi, sit quickly..." Cen Chaoge quickly smiled and gave up his seat, turned around and gave the waiter a piece of silver, "Serve the food quickly."

The waiter quickly put the money into his arms and went there diligently.

Xixiang smiled and said, "Young Master Cen is so polite. How dare our family bear such a big show?"

Cen Chaoge quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Xi is kidding. I work hard in the Interior Department every day. Others don't have time to invite anyone to invite me. Today I'm giving me this face. It's not that I'm polite, but that I'm applauding my face."

Cen Chaoge said something so hard that Xixiang felt soft in his heart, and he smiled and said, "Sad" and sat down.

Cen Chaoge's servant quickly stepped forward and filled the two of them with the wine they had already warmed up. The two of them politely treated each other for a while. When they were in a good mood, Cen Chaoge waved his hand and asked the servant to go out, and smiled and said, "Sir, the matter between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and our princess I mentioned last time..."

Xixiang's face became a little lighter when he heard this. He leaned closer and lowered his voice, "Congratulations to Mr. Cen, this matter has a look..."

Xixiang said this and stopped talking. He pretended to be drunk and just ate vegetables. Cen Chaoge was very disgusted, but he still smiled and took out a silver note from his arms, handed it to Xixiang without any trace, and smiled and said, "I just don't know what this stroke is?"

Xixiang lowered his head and smiled, and put the silver notes in his arms and said, "The emperor is so kind to him. The 100,000 stones of grain that provide relief to Lingnan has been dispatched. Just waiting for the eighth day of next month, the emperor will send an adult to escort him personally. The food will be passed by... there will be a letter to marry you."

Cen Chaoge's heart moved. On the eighth day of next month, there are ten days left...

"There's nothing else, oh by the way, our family also heard... because the Lingnan side hasn't been moving for a long time, besides those people, we have to choose a few more Lingnan people along the way... to accompany them all the way, so as not to make any mistakes. You know, the people in our side don't understand what the people in our side say..." Xixiang seemed to be really drunk and laughed, "This person will be selected from the group you came here this time... Haha, our family sees that your servant is good. Ask him if he misses home. If he misses home, let him go back..."

Cen Chaoge's heart couldn't help but jumped up, and he paused and said, "Sir, are joking again..."

"Hey! You don't believe that our family has this ability, right?" Xixiang suddenly became energetic, widened his eyes and slammed the table and shouted, "As the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, can't we do this? Tell you... don't... don't say it's your servant... it's you! Our family can also place you on the list of accompanying you! What a difficult thing..."

Cen Chaoge's heartbeat was getting faster and faster. He quickly helped Xixiang sit down, and smiled apologized: "What the sir is saying, what the sir is saying..."

"Oh..." Xixiang poured himself into his own drink, drank another cup, and sighed, "To be honest, it's not easy for you, just say that servant, who treats him as a thing? Everyone instructed him, even the waiter just now didn't take him seriously. Our family is not stupid. If it were in your Lingnan, he was both a slave of Wen Xiang's family and a close person to serve you. He was a slave in the mansion. When he went out, others would take him as his master! The Prime Minister's slave, the seventh-rank official, is this the reason..."

"That's just in your Lingnan. When you arrived at the imperial city, what kind of slaves from Lingnan Wenxiang? Who has ever heard of it?" Xixiang realized that he had said the wrong thing. He gently slapped himself and smiled, "Bah! Look at our mouth... I drank a few more sips and then I lost my door. Mr. Cen must not care. Lord Wenxiang of Lingnan is a rare capable official. Our family has long relied on the name..."

Cen Chaoge smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said rough words but not rough. What else did he not understand in the past month after coming to Beijing? He grew up in Lingnan since he was a child. People in Lingnan only recognized the King of Lingnan but did not know who the emperor was. Cen Chaoge, as the prince of the prime minister, was holding people everywhere. Even the King of Lingnan pretended to be a slut when he was accused of him. He dared not say that he was calling the wind and rain on weekdays, but at least he didn't need to flatter the eunuchs in such a way. Cen Chaoge glanced at Xixiang, who was drunk and hazy around him, and felt more and more disgusted.

After entering the imperial city, Cen Chaoge opened his eyes. He used to think he had some identity, but when he arrived in this imperial city where nobles gathered, he turned out to be nothing, not to mention that he now has another identity - the companion of the Proton. Others are afraid of avoiding it. Where is anyone willing to pay attention to him?

Cen Chaoge has experienced the warmth and coldness of human feelings this month. In the past, he didn't understand why Bai Ren was full of grudges in his heart, and he always wanted to climb up. At that time, he advised Bai Ren. The word "fame and profit" in the world is the most dirty, and there is no need to be persistent. Now Cen Chaoge only feels that he was really noble and ridiculous at that time. He suddenly remembered what his father said to him before leaving Lingnan: This is a difficult situation, be careful, and the future is limitless if you survive it.

Cen Chaoge was amused and laughed at the moment because of his friendship with Bai Ren for many years, and he agreed when he felt hot. Thinking about it now, it is really...

Xixiang didn't know Cen Chaoge's feelings at this moment, and muttered, while eating meat and tasting wine, "Why don't Mr. Cen talk? Oh... Our family understands, Mr. Cen misses home? Also... Lingnan is a good place. Although we have never been to Lingnan, we have heard about the scenery of southern Xinjiang. It is much better than our imperial city. The seasons are like spring, and it is not like ours... The wind and sand are blowing all year round... Mr. Cen will know after staying for a few years. At that time, your white face... will look like ours..."

Xixiang drank too much, his eyes were dull, and he murmured: "If I were you... I'd been back long ago, I would have a good future with the prince... What about you, what about you? What about you? If... I'd die with you..."

Xixiang was unable to resist the drunkenness and fell asleep leaning on his arm.

Cen Chaoge turned his face and looked at Xixiang with a complicated expression. He was hesitant, but Xixiang was already drunk and couldn't talk about anything. Cen Chaoge got up and opened the door of the court to let the two eunuchs who followed Xixiang in, and whispered: "Master Xi drank two more glasses and fell asleep."

A little eunuch nodded and said, "It's nothing, but I can't go back to the palace like this. We'll just send General Manager Xi to his house in the west of the city."

Cen Chaoge nodded and looked at the two little eunuchs carrying the people. He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and stopped him. He took out another purse from his arms, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds in his hand. He slowly handed the purse to the little eunuch and whispered: "I'll ask you to give this purse to Lord Xi after Lord Xi wakes up, and just say what I said... There is another thing to bother Lord Xi."

The little eunuch quickly agreed to put it away and helped Xixiang downstairs all the way.

Half an hour later, Xixiang and his group finally arrived at a small courtyard. The eunuch opened the curtain of the sedan chair a little and said softly: "Master Xi, we're here."

Xixiang walked out of the sedan chair, with no alcohol on his face, hurried into the courtyard gate and into the main hall. Jiang Deqingzheng slowly savored the tea when he saw Xixiang, smiled: "How is it?"

Xixiang hurriedly approached to pay homage, while serving tea to Jiang Deqing himself and whispered: "Don't worry, Master, everything is arranged."
