Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Zhai Yanlin was startled, he wanted to continue talking, but Cheng Yuanjing had already turned around and left without looking back.

This is just a warning, Cheng Yuanjing does not intend to discuss with him.

Cheng Yujin returned to her yard and asked Du Ruo to make a cup of hot tea. She was holding the tea cup, and her thoughts gradually drifted to what happened just now.

Ninth Uncle, oh no, His Royal Highness, he and Cai Guogong are talking alone, shouldn't there be a problem?

Cheng Yujin was thinking about it when a maid's greeting came from outside. Cheng Yujin was stunned for a moment, then immediately put down the tea cup and got up: "Ninth Uncle?"

Forsythia has entered the door facing Cheng Yuanjing. Cheng Yuanjing was still cold when he entered the door. When he came in and saw her, the coldness in his eyes became better.

Cheng Yuanjing was a rare guest, so Cheng Yujin hurried forward to entertain in person. She asked the maid to change the tea, rearrange the seats, and then sat opposite her seat, pouring a cup of hot tea for Cheng Yuanjing herself: "Ninth Uncle, why are you here? Did Cai Guogong say something?"

Cheng Yuanjing's eyes fell on Cheng Yujin's fingers. The porcelain cup has a cyan glaze, the color is transparent, and the touch is delicate. Cheng Yujin's fingers are long and white, printed on the cup as blue as the lake, with a slight shimmering light.

Cheng Yuanjing retracted his gaze vaguely, he took the tea cup, lowered his head and took a sip, with a light tone: "It's nothing."

After he finished speaking, he paused, and then asked very casually, as if he was just mentioning it casually: "What do you think of Zhai Yanlin?"

"Zhai Yanlin?" Cheng Yujin raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Why did the ninth uncle ask him?"

Cheng Yuanjing looked at the tea leaves slowly spreading in the teacup, his tone was flat, and he sounded completely indifferent: "Just ask casually."

Cheng Yujin didn't know why Cheng Yuanjing suddenly asked Zhai Yanlin, she followed the principle of prudence in words and deeds, and her words were well-established: "Cai Guogong is brave and good at fighting, and he is a rare pillar of talent. There are people like Cai Guogong who will serve the country. Loyalty is really a blessing to our people."

Cheng Yujin thought to herself, Cheng Yuanjing had never mentioned Zhai Yanlin before, and after talking to Zhai Yanlin alone, she came over to ask her what she thought of Zhai Yanlin. Depending on the situation, it is likely that Zhai Yanlin's conversational momentum caught Cheng Yuanjing's attention. Cheng Yuanjing moved his mind to reuse, so he came to ask her what she thought of Zhai Yanlin.

Whether in the future or now, Cheng Yuanjing needs to recruit people and talents. Since he is a person that His Royal Highness values, can Cheng Yujin still say that the other party is not good? Even if it's only five points, Cheng Yujin has to say eight points, and the remaining two points are left to turn around.

Cheng Yujin thought that her guess was very good, but the strange thing was that after she finished speaking, Cheng Yuanjing's face became even colder. Cheng Yujin is strange, what's going on? Could it be that Cheng Yuanjing is taboo about forming a party for personal gain, and doesn't want her to say goodbye to each other?

Cheng Yujin really couldn't guess what Cheng Yuanjing was thinking, so she didn't dare to express her position for a while, but asked tentatively: "I don't know anything about military affairs. I heard these words from my elders. What is the ninth uncle asking about?"

Cheng Yuanjing rubbed the celadon cup, and his eyes were slightly empty. He found that he was getting narrower and narrower. He could tell Zhai Yanlin not to disturb Cheng Yujin again, but as soon as he turned around, he began to worry about gains and losses. No matter how much he said to Zhai Yanlin, he couldn't change it, Cai Guogong's mansion was indeed very attractive to the Cheng family.

Although it is the successor, but after all, it is the lady of the country, what does Cheng Yujin think about this? She has clear and ambitious goals for her future. Will she not care about becoming a successor at all, but prefer the nobler and more powerful platform of Cai Guogong's mansion?

Cheng Yuanjing didn't know, so he walked halfway, and then turned around again, and asked Cheng Yujin, what do you think of Zhai Yanlin.

Before Cheng Yujin exited, he already had the expected answer in his heart. Unfortunately, what Cheng Yujin said was far from what he expected. Cheng Yuanjing was a little disappointed. If the disappointment hadn't come so quickly and fiercely, he wouldn't have known that he expected Cheng Yujin's denial so much.

Cheng Yuanjing himself wondered what happened to him. Obviously he has already got the answer, but he still has a self-deception-like fluke, thinking that maybe it's just that Cheng Yujin didn't understand his question. This has never happened in Cheng Yuanjing's past life. When Cheng Yuanjing was very young, he knew that the future would not show any affection for him, and he had already eliminated the emotions such as weakness and luck from his body.

But at this moment, Cheng Yuanjing stopped and asked again, "What about him alone, regardless of his meritorious title?"

Cheng Yujin thought to himself, as expected, His Royal Highness Prince Cai planned to reuse the mansion of Cai Guogong. She sighed in her heart, His Royal Highness valued Lin Qingyuan, Cheng Yujin had nothing to say, but is it a little worthless to value Zhai Yanlin?

She really felt that Duke Cai's mansion was not much different from their Cheng family. Looking at the heirs raised, Zhai Qing and Cheng Enbao were both prodigal things, and Duke Cai's mansion was not as good as their own. His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince supporting Cai Guogong's mansion, why didn't he want to mention Yichūn Hou's mansion?

Cheng Yujin sighed inwardly, but on the surface she had to pretend to smile, praising the choice of the superior: "Nine uncles are like torches, the people you like are of course the dragons and phoenixes among the people."

Cheng Yuanjing had been paying attention to the change in Cheng Yujin's expression. He noticed the slight reluctance on Cheng Yujin's face, and immediately asked, "If you have anything to say, I don't like others to lie to me."
