Chapter 1750 The Twenty-Two Princes Also Got Involved
Baizhan City, Baizhanhou Mansion, reception hall.
"Steward Fei, I wonder what the purpose of your coming here is?"
Qiulin's voice came, and a middle-aged man stood opposite him.
The middle-aged man's name is Fei Guang, a very common name, but if people in the Dali Kingdom hear it, most people will feel a chill in their hearts.
This is not to say that Fei Guang's strength is very powerful. On the contrary, Fei Guang's strength is average. The reason why he is scary is because of his mind and the master behind him.
As the Marquis of Dali Kingdom, although Qiu Lin usually behaves very low-key, he is very clear about some things that happened in Dali Kingdom.
He knew that Fei Guang was the steward of the twenty-second prince's house.
In some previous chapters, it was mistakenly written as the Twenty-Third Prince. I would like to remind you that it should be the Twenty-Two Prince. Because it was originally written as The Twenty-Two Princes.
The twenty-second prince, the twenty-second son of the king, has a very deep city and is very cunning and ruthless. He has recruited a group of masters to work for him.
The Twenty-Two Princes are one of the few princes who are highly appreciated by the King. In the Kingdom of Dali, apart from His Majesty the King, the Twenty-Two Princes have a lot of say.
Those who oppose him have absolutely no chance of surviving even if they escape from the Dali Kingdom.
In Qiu Lin's memory, the Twenty-Two Prince was a ruthless person who would do anything to achieve his goals. It was precisely for this reason that he never made a clear statement in the face of the Twenty-Two Prince's attempts to win over him.
On weekdays, he was very cautious in his behavior. Even if the Twenty-Two Princes wanted to deal with him, it would be difficult to get hold of him.
Other than that, he didn't have much interaction with the Twenty-Two Princes.
Many matters of the Twenty-Two Princes will be left to Fei Guang to handle.
And Fei Guang did not betray the trust of the Twenty-Two Princes. He handled everything that the Twenty-Two Princes entrusted to him perfectly.
Qiu Lin was very confused as to why Fei Guang suddenly arrived.
Qiu Lin had a bad feeling in his heart. He vaguely felt that Butler Fei's visit to Baizhanhou Mansion today was definitely a bad one.
On the opposite side, Fei Guang bowed his hands to Qiu Lin, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said with a respectful look: "Qiu Hou, I took the liberty to come here this time, but in fact I was entrusted by the twenty-two princes. , if there is any rudeness, please forgive me, Lord Marquis."
In terms of his attitude towards Qiu Lin, Fei Guang seemed neither humble nor overbearing, polite and courteous, and could not let Qiu Lin find any fault at all.
It is precisely because of this that after listening to Fei Guang's words, Qiu Lin couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in his heart.
This Fei Guang is really as difficult to deal with as the legend says!
"Master Hou?"
Seeing that Qiu Lin did not speak but was deep in thought, Fei Guang did not get angry, but had an inexplicable smile in his eyes.
Only then did Qiu Lin come back to his senses, looked at Fei Guang, frowned and asked, "I wonder what the prince's orders are when he sends you here?"
Hearing Qiu Lin's words, Fei Guang immediately smiled and shook his head and said, "I can't talk about orders. It's just that His Highness heard that Ling Qianjin was going to marry Wanyanlang, the adopted son of Pingluan Hou, so he came here to ask the villain to give it to him. A small gift."
With that said, Fei Guang clapped his hands a few times, and a dozen servants wearing servant clothes walked in from the door.
They were all carrying a box in their hands. Looking at it, it seemed that the box contained no less than a dozen boxes.
Looking at these dozen boxes, Qiu Lin was shocked and quickly waved his hand. He looked at Fei Guang, frowned and said: "Steward Fei, this is impossible. How can I, Qiu Lin, be able to bear the burden of living with His Highness the Prince?" With such great love, please take these boxes back."
When Fei Guang heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, and he turned to look at Qiu Lin with a calm expression and asked, "Is the Marquis going to refuse the twenty-two princes' blessing?"
"I……"
Qiu Lin was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment.
When Fei Guang saw this, a smile reappeared in his eyes. He looked at Qiu Lin and said, "Master Marquis, the Twenty-Two Princes said that you, the Marquis of Peace and Luan, are all ministers of my Dali Kingdom. This marriage is highly anticipated by everyone, I hope you will not disappoint His Highness the Prince's expectations."
Qiulin could only show a forced smile on his face and nodded mechanically.
"Okay, Lord Marquis, the gift has been delivered, so I won't leave any more. By the way, the prince also said that on the day Miss Qiu Xue and Young Master Wanyan Lang get married, he will personally come and be the officiant."
"Master Hou, this is a great honor."
After Fei Guang finished speaking, before Qiu Lin could react, he turned around and left with his servants.
After Fei Guang left, Qiulin slumped down in his seat with a plop, his face becoming extremely ugly.
The reason why he agreed to Wanyan Lang's marriage proposal was to delay time. He had no intention of marrying Qiu Xue to Wanyan Lang.
He had even made plans to regret the marriage on the wedding day.
But he never expected that the twenty-second prince, who had always been aloof from worldly affairs, would be involved in this matter.
With the intervention of the Twenty-Two Princes, this matter has completely changed, become extremely complicated, and the matter has developed in an uncontrollable direction.
At this time, a middle-aged woman walked in from outside the door. The woman was Qiu Lin's wife, Mrs. Qiu.
"What's going on here?"
Qiu first glanced at the dozen or so large boxes placed on the ground, then looked at Qiu Lin, who looked a little ugly, and asked with a puzzled look.
Qiu Lin glanced at Mrs. Qiu, sighed, and then told Mrs. Qiu all the ins and outs of the incident.
After hearing this, Mr. Qiu's expression suddenly changed.
"No, Xiaoxue must not marry Wanyan Lang. Qiu Lin, you promised me back then. Xiaoxue's engagement with Wanyan Lang was just a temporary measure. You shouldn't really want to push our daughter away. Into the fire pit?"
Mrs. Qiu looked at Qiu Lin angrily.
Qiu Lin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Everyone knows that Wanyan Lang has a bad nature. As a daughter like Xiaoxue, how could I push Xiaoxue into the fire pit?"
Having said this, he paused and continued: "It's just that I didn't expect that the Twenty-Two Prince would intervene. This matter needs to be considered in the long term."
"A long-term plan?" Mrs. Qiu sneered, "I think you are afraid, Qiu Lin, you are afraid of the twenty-two princes, but I am not afraid. Who dares to hurt my daughter, I will fight with him desperately, even if it is a prince, so what? , at worst the fish will die and the net will fall apart.”
Looking at Mrs. Qiu with an angry face, Qiu Lin scolded her coldly: "Nonsense! A woman's opinion!"
After saying that, he ignored Qiu and walked straight out the door.
"Where are you going?" Qiu shouted from behind Qiu Lin.
Qiu Lin said without looking back: "Shanhe City. Brother Xu and the others just returned. This matter is not trivial. I want to discuss it with them."
