Chapter 342 (1/2)

Marquis Zheng nodded and waved to him: ”you don't have to say, I understand. Go down first. I'll go in later.”

The chief gatekeeper hurriedly retreated respectfully. In the eyes of marquis Zheng, there was a deep respect.

When the doorman was far away, Qi Rongyue said in a low voice: ”Hou Ye has a good manner, and Rongyue admires him!”

Marquis Zheng glanced at her and said quietly, ”I'm just doing what I should do. What can I admire?”

Marquis Zheng picked up his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Qi Rongyue would say these things to him, but he couldn't help but answer: ”Oh? What do you understand? ”

Qi Rongyue smiled and looked at the clear blue sky above his eyes: ”the prosperity and decline of a family depends on whether people are open and tolerant.”

When she looked at Marquis Zheng, her smile gradually deepened. Mingren said, ”you are the only one worthy of the marquis in this dynasty!”

Marquis Zheng didn't feel rejoicing because of her words. His thick black eyebrows even wrinkled. He looked around and saw no one was around. Then he lowered his voice and said: ”this kind of words, don't say it again.”

Qi Rongyue nodded: ”I understand that you are a person and do things in a low-key way. It's your principle that you prefer to be behind others and before others. It's also the biggest reason why you are still a favorite after two dynasties.”
