Chapter 227 You two are very similar
Although Ming Chongyan came uninvited, he was elegant and his words were very polite, so he did not arouse people's disgust. As the master, Princess Chengyang also had a lot of conversations with him. Even Xue Shao, who hated him at first, no longer rejected him so much later.
However, Zhang Zong could feel that Ming Chongyan seemed to be more interested in him, and he sat next to Zhang Zong, so he often chatted with Zhang Zong. Although Zhang Zong was alert, he did not show it on the surface. It could even be said that he had a good conversation with the other party. To be honest, Ming Chongyan is indeed a person that is difficult to hate.
After the banquet, Ming Chongyan stood up and said goodbye, but when he left, he spoke to Zhang Zong again: "I heard that Mr. Zhang has a flowerbed full of all kinds of strange flowers and plants. I wonder if I have the honor to go and see it?"
"Doctor Ming is polite. The flower beds under the lower house are always open. Anyone can go there. If Doctor Ming is interested, I will welcome you at any time!" Zhang Zong said with a calm smile.
"I will definitely visit you next day!" Ming Chongyan smiled again when he heard this. After saying that, he bowed to Princess Chengyang again, and then said goodbye to leave.
After Ming Chongyan left, Princess Chengyang looked at Zhang Zong, then suddenly smiled and said, "Zong'er, do you think that this Ming Chongyan seems to be very similar to you?"
"Yes, yes! I have the same feeling. At first, I hated him quite a bit, but I gradually felt it wasn't too annoying. I was a little strange just now. Now when my mother said that, I remembered that he did look very similar to Brother Shi. No wonder I didn't hate him!" Xue Shao immediately agreed at this time.
"But I think that Doctor Ming is different from Brother Shi!" Xue Ning'er suddenly spoke.
"Huh? Ning'er, why do you say that?" Princess Chengyang also looked at Xue Ning'er in surprise and asked.
"You see, Brother Shi will definitely not do such a thing!" Xue Ning'er pushed the pot of flowers in front of him forward, and Princess Chengyang and others also looked over.
Zhang Zong also walked forward curiously. When Ming Chongyan turned into this pot of flowers just now, there was a beautiful flower cluster from a distance, but when he got closer, he found that these flowers were actually very messy, not the same variety at all, and they were all cut branches inserted into the pot. The pot was not soil, but messy things, making the pot very light.
"This... there seems to be no problem with this pot of flowers. Except for too many flowers, it looks a bit messy?" Xue Shao looked at it for a long time but couldn't see any problem.
"There is a problem. The flowers given to me by Brother Shi are all with roots and soil, and can be raised for a long time, but these flowers are cut branches and will wither in a few days. Brother Shi never gave me such flowers!" Xue Ning'er pointed to the flowers and said with some displeasure. She is also a person who likes flowers and plants, and she is soft-hearted and never likes to cut flowers.
"Ning'er is careful, and you can even see this difference!" Princess Chengyang couldn't help but praise, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with this small difference.
"Actually, I feel the same as Ning'er. Ming Chongyan is not the same as me." At this time, Zhang Zong finally spoke. Perhaps it was obvious that Ming Chongyan was a bit like him, but he knew that the two were completely different inwards. Ming Chongyan might be really capable, but he advanced to the fore under the pretext of the gods, which was completely different from him.
"Brother Shi, are you sure? I thought you had a good chat with him just now?" Xue Shao asked again in confusion.
"Ming Chongyan may be a very interesting person, and he is indeed very capable, but I have a premonition that he and I will definitely not become friends!" Zhang Zong said calmly again. He has always believed in his intuition.
"Oh? Do you think he is a little inappropriate?" Princess Chengyang also took Zhang Zong's words seriously, and then sat upright and asked.
"I can't be sure, I just feel it." Zhang Zong shook his head and said. He had only met Ming Chongyan once, and there was no way to understand him at all, so it was difficult to make a conclusion for a while.
"That's interesting. Didn't he say he wanted to visit you? You can get a good idea of this person at that time. Speaking of which, Brother Jiu trusts him very much. If there is anything wrong with him, that's not a good thing!" Princess Chengyang also showed a contemplative expression when she heard this.
It was getting late, and Zhang Zong also stood up to say goodbye. Princess Chengyang, Xue Shao, and Xue Ning'er also sent him away in person. However, just when he was about to get on the carriage, Xue Ning'er suddenly ran over and grabbed his sleeve and whispered: "Brother Shi, the end of the month is your birthday. I have prepared a gift for you, but you must promise me first. Don't dislike it after receiving the gift!"
"Don't worry, I like whatever Ning'er gives you!" Zhang Zong laughed silently after hearing this. He didn't care about any gifts, as long as Ning'er had this intention, it would be fine.
"Thank you, Brother Shi, I like the mirror you gave me very much. My little sisters also ask me to ask them, do you don't have any other mirrors in your hand?" Xue Ning'er blinked her big eyes and asked Zhang Zong again.
"No more, that mirror is not easy to make. Not only is it difficult to find suitable glass, but mercury is also used when making it. This thing is highly toxic, so I must be very careful when making it." Zhang Zong explained.
"It's poisonous!" Xue Ning'er's face changed drastically when she heard this, and then immediately said, "If it's so dangerous, Brother Shi, don't do it anymore. It's enough for me to have a mirror!"
"Don't worry, it's not that exaggerated. As long as you are careful, there will be no problem!" Zhang Zong smiled again when he saw Xue Ning'er's worried look. After saying that, he said goodbye to Ning'er again, and then bowed to Princess Chengyang, and then boarded the carriage with Wan'er and left.
"Young Master, I also think that Ming Chong is not like a good person. I heard that he was so strolling in the palace. Not only did His Majesty respect him, but even the Queen of Heaven favor him. From this we can see that this person must be not a simple person!" As soon as he got on the carriage, Wan'er immediately spoke to Zhang Zong.
"I know that this person is not good, and I even suspect that he came to the Princess's Mansion today for me. But since he dares to come, I will not be afraid of him. Let's wait and see what he has plans!" Zhang Zong nodded after hearing this.
