Chapter 470 Keeping a Secret
Those old stories of Chen Zhima and rotten millet are useless except to make him be despised and ridiculed. Of course, Liu Zhihong doesn't want them to be brought up and said, but there is an eventuality, and he must prepare for this so-called "in case" in advance. get ready.
And what he can do to prepare is to find himself a bigger and better backer.
He didn't ask the other party to help him deal with Ye Anlan, but just in case those old stories were spread one day, the existence of the other party would save him from being criticized by others and made things difficult by the officialdom.
I have to say that the desire for power can sometimes really inspire people's unlimited potential. Knowing that the road to becoming an official is not easy, Liu Zhihong still sharpened his head and continued to work for himself because of his desire for power and status. Digging hard.
When Ye Jinkui met him by chance, he not only won the Jinshi, but also successfully became the future son-in-law of the veteran patriarch of the noble family he picked.
Although the girl the other party plans to marry him is just a concubine, that concubine has a very promising brother and a biological mother who is still very popular with the patriarch despite her age.
The most important thing is that the other party is not like Qian Shi, who has an arrogant and domineering personality.
His new fiancée has not only read books, female celebrities, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also knows current affairs and is good at pleasing the elders.
Liu Zhihong doesn't care about her true character, as long as the other party can be his help instead of resistance, Liu Zhihong feels that his marriage is not a disadvantage.
As for the Ye family and Ye Anlan, Liu Zhihong planned to avoid them whenever he could, and if he couldn't avoid them, he would salute them from a distance, but he would never provoke them.
If he hadn't deliberately avoided it from the beginning, and his social circle hadn't had much to do with Ye Jinkui and other military generals and nobles, Ye Jinkui wouldn't have discovered that he was actually in this batch of new scholars until he got an external job. inside.
Thinking of his own daughter who was still popular in the seaside fishing village so far, Ye Jinkui blushed, and sent someone to check Liu Zhihong from head to toe.
Finding out the deaths of Liu Zhihong's parents, sister, and wife, Ye Jinkui not only relieved his hatred, but also couldn't help being wary of Liu Zhihong's ruthlessness.
Coupled with the fact that Liu Zhihong was still in Beijing to rush for the exam, wait for the release of the rankings, and wait for the official position, he found a home for himself, which was undoubtedly a good relationship with him, and Ye Jinkui's vigilance index towards him suddenly quadrupled. .
After much deliberation and weighing, Ye Jinkui finally decided to write another letter to his daughter.
Ye Anlan who received the letter did not suffer all the hard work at the beach as Ye Jinkui expected. Because she was pregnant, she was already protected by Li Jing as a rare animal when the list was released in the capital.
Originally, Li Jing only got a two-month vacation with Xie Yuan, but by coincidence, just three days before he was about to leave for Beijing, Ye Anlan diagnosed her with a happy pulse.
She didn't take it too seriously, her body was very good, and she had been practicing martial arts since then, so she felt that she was stronger than a calf.
She was not like others when she was pregnant, she was so uncomfortable that she couldn't eat or drink.
In other words, not only is she not uncomfortable, but her appetite seems to be better than before pregnancy_(:з」∠)_
In this case, it is really difficult for her to treat herself as a fragile piece of porcelain.
She is a doctor, she will pay attention to what she should pay attention to, other than that, Ye Anlan will continue to do what she intends to do.
Besides, she didn't get pregnant by herself, so her husband had to let go of all the consciousness of being by his side, after all, she wasn't like those pregnant women who were struggling to conceive.
People suffer and feel uncomfortable, and it is normal to need companionship and care, but she doesn't. Even if she is pregnant, she is still more energetic than most women in the world when they are not pregnant┓(`)┏
She felt that Li Jing could fully maintain the original plan to return to Beijing, and by the way, he could personally report the good news to his elders, but Li Jing disagreed with her.
Li Jing felt that even if Ye Anlan hadn't been affected in any way now, it didn't mean that Ye Anlan would always be the same in the future.
What if Ye Anlan started to have morning sickness as soon as he left? What if Ye Anlan couldn't eat? How can he not guard?
Worries about his wife occupied Li Jing's mind at this time. He rejected Ye Anlan's proposal to let him continue to maintain the original plan, and wrote to Xie Yuan, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li, Ye Jinkui and Mrs. Li respectively at night. sent a letter.
The letter to Xie Yuan was one to announce the good news and the other was to ask for leave. He believed that after seeing his reason for asking for leave, Xie Yuan would definitely wave his hand and happily agree to let him freely decide the date of returning to Beijing.
The letters to his grandmother, mother, and Ye Anlan's adoptive parents were purely for the good news.
He wrote the news of Ye Anlan's pregnancy, and then told the two elders that they would set off and slowly return to the capital after Ye Anlan's pregnancy was stable.
Ye Anlan, who read his letter by the side, reminded him, "Remember to let them keep it secret, otherwise I'm afraid that someone who doesn't like me will take advantage of my inconvenience and make a wrong idea."
Li Jing paused slightly when he wrote the letter, and then Ye Anlan watched helplessly as he burned all the written letters_(:з」∠)_
Ye Anlan:? ? ?
Before she could ask, Li Jing said: "A secret that is known by too many people is not a secret. This letter cannot be written like this."
Ye Anlan: In fact, there is no need to be so cautious. At worst, she will send more people to protect herself.
As she was thinking, she saw Li Jing writing two letters to Chang An and Hua Liang.
He didn't say the specific reason, but only said that he asked them to select a group of trustworthy people and let them secretly come to the small fishing village by the sea where Li Jing and Ye Anlan lived temporarily.
Ye Anlan: Okay, my beautiful husband likes to think too much, and thinking too much is bad for his health. In order to make him feel at ease, he can do whatever he likes.
Li Jing didn't realize at all that Ye Anlan's non-objection was actually out of love and consideration for his husband. He sealed the envelopes for Hualiang and Chang'an, and then wrote to Xie Yuan and the elders of the two families again. write a letter.
In the letter, he didn't mention Ye Anlan's pregnancy. He only said that there were many things going on here, and Ye Anlan urgently needed his help.
In order to appease Xie Yuan, Li Jing also sent some corals, clams, seawater pearls, and several carts of dried fish and shrimp, fish sauce and shrimp paste, fish **** and shrimp balls, salted fish, scallops, and dried sea vegetables to Beijing.
Xie Yuan was amused and annoyed when he received a third of the "Tuyi" handed over by Ye Jinkui and sent back by Li Jing, but Li Jing was determined not to come back, and he couldn't personally arrest this guy who escaped from Beijing came back.
As for forcing the decree, Xie Yuan said that it would hurt the friendship between him and Li Jing.
