Chapter 242
"Your Majesty, I will obey your decree. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. My mother's poisoning has nothing to do with Lord Li. I hope Lord Li will forgive me." Xu Heming humbled himself greatly, hoping to make Li Tianyou worry less about him.
He sighed inwardly. He had finally gotten through the ordeal of giving his future father-in-law fake liquor last time.
Another cousin came and accused him of poisoning his mother.
This left him feeling quite helpless.
I feel that my image in Li Tianyou's mind is never good.
Would Li Tianyou still agree to let his daughter marry him?
Thinking of this, Xu Heming looked at Li Zhiwei with some grievance.
Li Zhiwei didn't want to pay any attention to him.
She had never met that cousin, but it seemed that the letter she sent to Li'an County was written by that cousin.
She did read the letter, and those who read it probably wouldn't believe that the two of them had no relationship.
If it hadn't been for the later discovery that she was the one who poisoned him, Li Zhiwei felt that she might have also begun to doubt whether Xu Heming's relationship with that person was innocent.
After this incident, Zhu Jingchen could no longer urge the couple to postpone their wedding.
After all, one of them was his confidant, and the other, now, had earned him a lot of money; in a sense, he was his future cash cow.
From now on, with these two people by his side, he believes his kingdom of Lanno will only get better and better.
"Eunuch Liu, go to my private treasury later and pick out some nourishing foods for the old princess. Deliver them to Prince An's residence on my behalf," Zhu Jingchen instructed Eunuch Liu, who was standing beside him.
"I heard that Madam Li also came to the capital this time. The residence I chose for Lord Li has now been renovated. Lord Li, you should discuss it with your wife later and see if you can move there." Zhu Jingchen then looked at Li Tianyou and mentioned the matter of bestowing a residence upon him.
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your great favor!" Li Tianyou had already heard from the Emperor that he would be granted a house.
However, since the house wasn't bestowed upon him, he couldn't press the matter further.
Although Xiliu Lane is a nice place to live, the interpersonal relationships there are more complicated, and the privacy is not as good as that of official residences.
If possible, Li Tianyou would also like to move out.
It wasn't that he didn't want to buy a larger house in the capital.
In truth, he put a lot of effort into buying that small courtyard in Xiliu Lane.
After all, as a businessman, it was very difficult for him to obtain the qualifications to purchase property in the capital. Moreover, he had to find someone to sign a white contract for this courtyard first, and then pull a lot of strings and ask many people to help him get the official seal.
Only after the red deed was signed did the courtyard truly belong to them.
However, even though he could buy such a small courtyard in the capital, Li Tianyou was still very gratified.
But now, they have another residence, bestowed by the Emperor himself, which is a joyous occasion.
Moreover, nowadays, he is a second-rank official, and the mansion bestowed upon him by the emperor should not be too small.
After giving these instructions, Li Tianyou took his daughter back home.
Xu Heming wanted to say a few words to Li Zhiwei, but judging from his future father-in-law's attitude, he was afraid he wouldn't let him say anything.
They could only watch helplessly as Li Zhiwei and Li Tianyou left.
Wei Jia
Xie Yanzhi and Jiang Yu personally escorted Wei Herui back.
"Oh dear, what happened to you two?" Lin Ziyi looked at her son, who was being supported by the two children, and asked worriedly, thinking that Wei Herui was injured.
"Greetings, Madam Wei!"
"Greetings, Madam Wei!"
