Xu Honglei, Ming Jun and Ming Jia ate lunch very slowly, eating slowly and calmly.

Xu Honglei was eating while thinking about where to take Mingjun. Mingjia was eating while observing the diners in Tianxiang Tower. Mingjun was simply enjoying the food.

Not to mention, Ming Jia actually observed several waves of guests. They were originally going in their direction, but after seeing Xu Honglei's figure, they immediately changed directions.

Mingjia suddenly thought of what his brother had said before, because Xu Honglei didn't come to talk to him. "Puch!" Mingjia couldn't help laughing as she thought about it.

Xu Honglei and Ming Jun both looked at Mingjia. Mingjia quickly stopped smiling, "Eat the food! Eat the food! It's delicious!"

In the teahouse opposite, Xie Zhiqiu talked slowly about a lot, from taxation to the management of foreign businessmen, the sale of land near the port, and finally the prevention of foreign viruses.

Prince Liang Jingchen had been drinking tea quietly. On the surface, he did not respond to Xie Zhiqiu's words, but his mind was already thinking of many laws and regulations. Liang Jingchen is now a quasi-emperor. When thinking about things, he always uses imperial thinking to consider the overall arrangement.

Xie Zhiqiu kept talking and stopped after a long time. Xie Zhiqiu glanced secretly at the prince, who seemed to be deep in thought, and slowly stretched out his hand to touch the already cold tea cup in front of him.

The prince quickly came to his senses, reached for the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Xie Zhiqiu, "Miss Xie is really amazing. She has such insights into sea trade. I'm so surprised!"

Xie Zhiqiu paused while drinking tea. Just now, the prince called himself me, but now he is alone. Xie Zhiqiu quickly put down the teacup in her hand and immediately stood up to salute, saying that she did not dare and felt deeply frightened.

Liang Jingchen smiled and reached out to hold Xie Zhiqiu's arm, trying to help Xie Zhiqiu up. "Thank you, girl, you and I don't need to be so polite. Get up quickly and sit down!"

Xie Zhiqiu lowered her head shyly and stood up slowly. But anger flashed in her lowered eyes. Everyone thought that the prince was obsessed with her, and even speculated that she would enter the prince's backyard.

Even her cheap dad thinks so, and he is becoming more and more public whether in the family or outside. But Xie Zhiqiu knew that the prince had always used her.

When he first arrived in Daliang, Xie Zhiqiu started in hell mode. Her father was both incompetent and very ambitious. In order to find a small official, he even wanted to give her to an old widower as a second marriage, but her mother only knew how to obey and wipe away tears.

If Xie Zhiqiu hadn't seized the opportunity, put on men's clothes and "accidentally met" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was attending a banquet at Earl Lee's Mansion, and quickly reached an agreement to cooperate with the Crown Prince, Xie Zhiqiu would still not know what kind of situation she would be in now.

Now everyone in the capital knew that Xie Zhiqiu belonged to the prince. The prince's attitude was unclear, but the attitudes of the ladies from various families in the capital were very clear towards her, and they were all hostile.

If the prince did not express his position, the prince's concubine and the prince's concubine would naturally not say anything. Xie Zhiqiu's life in the capital was very difficult. Otherwise, Xie Zhiqiu would not be tempted to make friends with Mingjun and Mingjia after guessing the identities of the two Xiao brothers.

Xie Zhiqiu knew that by making good friends with the two Xiao brothers, whether it was to please the prince or the cousin, it was a roundabout way, and it was a long-term approach.

But Xie Zhiqiu has no better way to improve her situation. Every move she makes in the capital will be watched closely by the prince's people or people from the prince's rival family.

Liang Jingchen got what he wanted, so he naturally wouldn't stay in the teahouse for too long. Liang Jingchen finally got up and walked to the window and glanced at the three people who were still eating opposite him, frowning a little, "Is the food at Tianxianglou really so delicious today?" "

Xie Zhiqiu knelt to see off His Royal Highness, and finally stood up with the help of her mother-in-law. Xie Zhiqiu recalled the prince's strange actions just before he left, "Grandma Nan, help me go to the window and have a look!"

Xie Zhiqiu didn't know what the Crown Prince was looking at just now, but she knew the general direction.

So, Xie Zhiqiu stood in front of the window, watching and searching bit by bit. After a while, Xie Zhiqiu was tired of standing. Just when Xie Zhiqiu was about to give up, she suddenly saw Xiao Mingjun and Xiao Mingjia coming from the opposite side of the Tianxiang Building. come out.

"It's them. It seems like Xie Jue needs to speed up!" Xie Zhiqiu had only this idea after seeing Ming Jun and Ming Jia.

Mingjia didn't care where her brother and Xu Honglei went in the afternoon. She took Mrs. Yan back to Shiqulou. She now fully believed that Xu Honglei could take good care of her brother.

Li Hansheng was sitting in the study, playing with a visiting post in his hand. He raised his head and asked Butler Li: "Whose post do you think this is from?"

In fact, Butler Li didn't believe it when the concierge told him just now. "My lord, this is a message from the residence of General Xu, saying that the general invites you to drink tea!"

Li Hansheng had actually read the post, but he couldn't figure out why Xu Shengyuan invited him to tea so formally.

It's not that the two families don't interact with each other at all, but it's just the first time that greeting cards are used between them. Li Hansheng frowned, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't figure out why Xu Shengyuan was suddenly so polite.

When Li Hansheng saw the post saying that he could go have tea at any time, Li Hansheng lowered his head and looked at his clothes. Um! You can go out!

Li Hansheng stood up directly, threw the post on the desk, turned to Butler Li and said, "I'll go to Xu Shengyuan's house. You will send someone to pick up Mingjun and Mingjia as soon as possible!"

Butler Li didn't expect that his prince would go to drink tea and get up. He was stunned for a moment before reacting and said: "Okay, I remember to send someone to pick up the two young masters."

Xu Shengyuan sent someone to deliver the post and ordered someone to boil water for tea in the study. He speculated that the water would be ready to boil when Li Hansheng arrived. For this reason, Xu Shengyuan also sent a message to the concierge. If Li Hansheng arrived, he would be directed to the study.

Xu Shengyuan looked at the hot water boiling on the small tea stove beside him and tapped the table leisurely while thinking about how to chat with Li Hansheng later.

In terms of military exploits, Xu Shengyuan is no worse than Li Hansheng and Ning Shihui. However, Xu Shengyuan was not named the Duke of the country, mainly because Emperor Liang considered balancing the situation of the court.

Li Hansheng came from a wealthy family. Although he was expelled from the family because he secretly led troops to join Emperor Liang's rebellion, his background could not be changed.

Ning Shihui came from a grassroots background and fought his way up. He was one of the first people to conquer the world with Emperor Liang. Moreover, when Emperor Liang first raised his army, he recruited many poor and impoverished families, and Ning Shihui was the representative.
