Funing Hall

Zhao Zongning was aggrieved and left the palace, he didn't want to go back to the princess mansion, and even less interested in looking for Zhao Shu'an, so he simply went to Zhao Shiqi's house which was nearby.She wanted Zhao Shiqi to persuade her brother. Zhao Shiqi was not there, so she was not in a hurry, so she waited for Zhao Shiqi to come back while shopping in the garden.

Zhao Shiqi was sitting in the backyard of the Yuanjia Tea House. He had been sitting here for nearly an hour. At first he was still very calm, but after sitting for a while, some impatience inevitably appeared on his face.

Fortunately, when he couldn't help standing up, Mu Fu finally brought someone back.

A few days ago, after Du Cheng's matter was resolved, Mu Fu returned to Kaifeng together with Zhao Cong's subordinate Shao Yi and others.

When Mu Fu came back now, he also knew that Zhao Shiqi was in a hurry, so he immediately saluted and said, "Sanlang, I found out everything. Yi Yu's hometown is in Yangzhou, each family has an elder brother and a younger brother, and another—"

"Just say what matters most."

"Lang Jun also knows that Yi's family is a wealthy businessman in Yangzhou. There are many houses in the capital. Yi Yu usually lives in Bajiao Lane. It is a big house with five entrances. The younger one took someone to see it, but no one lived in it. Yi Yu Yu lives at Lin Changxin's house now."

"Who is Lin Changxin?"

"San Lang doesn't know about it. He works in the government office of Kaifeng. He writes some documents anonymously. His family is quite rich. Yi Yu's uncle, Lin Changxin's wife is Yi Yu's mother's sister."

"How about Lin Changxin?"

"Very generous and honest."

Zhao Shiqi believed in Mu Fu's vision, and Mu Fu was right.He didn't waste time on Lin Changxin, but said again: "Listen to you, Yi Yu has never been to his own house these days?"

"No."

Zhao Shiqi was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "This person is very disgusting, he seems to have a plan in mind, and I still want to make something to make him panic. You will take someone to search his five-entry mansion tonight. It’s best to find something, even if you can’t find it, don’t forget to make some noise.”

"Yes."

"In the past, when I was in Hangzhou, I had heard of his family's name, but his family has always been close to me, and I never cared. This time - what kind of business does their family focus on?"

"Their family made their fortune by stealing some tombs from the previous dynasty and selling genital warts. Now they are doing all kinds of business. In recent years, most of the things imported from the south come from their family."

Zhao Shiqi smiled: "It's easy to handle. It's not just for nothing to keep those people in the village."

Mu Fu also smiled: "Yes, they are also bored, just let them exercise their hands and feet."

"Your Majesty taught me to be kind to others. I really don't like to do these things anymore."

"This person is so scheming that even His Majesty dares to force him, and he is secretly complacent. It is a great evil. Punishing the wicked is a great good deed!"

Zhao Shiqi twitched the corners of his lips, he had been a good person for a while, and then he was not used to being a bad person, but he was also very happy.He ordered: "The weather has been calm recently. You have done sea business in the past. I know that many ships are about to return from abroad, and they directly took people to rob them. Kill a few more people so that they will know how to be afraid. No, give it to other colleagues in the sea. If you ask why, you will say that Yi Yu offended someone. I think that merchants like them, when they encounter such a thing, are they concerned about Yi Yu's future that they can't see at all? It's still their family's money. It's just that when they do things, they should be careful not to leave anything behind."

"Don't worry, sir, they have a lot of experience."

Mu Fu was really relieved when he was doing things.He arranged these two things, feeling a little happy in his heart, but still frowning: "The world is so big, is it true that Yi Yu is the only one who knows this skill? It is said that the most important thing about that skill lies in the potion that he concocts. It's wrong to divide it by a cent, and Yi Yu is proud of it, right here. As long as he masters this technique for one day, His Majesty will not touch him."

"Your Majesty has the world in mind, so he is tolerant of such villains."

"If you send more people to look for it, I won't believe it. You can't find a second person. Now go back to Hangzhou and take people to visit all the printing factories and bookstores south of Huainan. Be sure to hurry up."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lang, the last thing we need is manpower."

Zhao Shiqi nodded: "Besides, Yi Yu's servants and envoys have followed him for a long time, so it is inevitable that they have some understanding of this technology, and they can win over if they can."

Mu Fu smiled: "Don't worry, sir, the little one has already started to do it."

"That Lin Mansion, you are so good to keep an eye on."

"Yes."

For some reason, Zhao Shiqi always felt that the word "Lin Fu" was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.But he couldn't think of it, he really hated Yi Yu too much.If Zhao Cong didn't care about Yi Yu's skill, he would have killed Yi Yu himself.

Zhao Shiqi also explained that Mu Fu still had to go to Sun Xiaoyu's nurse every day, and explained other things before getting up and returning to the palace.

Naturally, on the way back to the palace, people at home came to ask him to go home, saying that the princess was here.

This is a rare guest, Zhao Shiqi returned home, and saw Zhao Zongning was unhappy, when he asked, Zhao Zongning said the original words, and said: "You help me to persuade brother, this method is the most practical."

It was rare for Zhao Shiqi to agree with Zhao Cong, so he immediately refused: "I won't help you with this."

"Why!! I only hate that when Xiao Tang came to my house and mentioned Yi Yu, I didn't take action to deal with him."

"If you deal with it, Da Song will really have no one who knows that technology."

Zhao Zongning was discouraged: "That's what he relies on." After she was discouraged, her voice changed, "So my method is the most useful, isn't it? I know, you are very similar to me, I see my brother is so angry, I want to kill Yi Yu, don't you? If he becomes my son-in-law, I'll kill him, how about that?"

One thing is one thing.

Although this matter is difficult to solve, Zhao Shiqi really wanted to kill Yi Yu, but like Zhao Cong, he was determined not to use Zhao Zongning, even though Zhao Zongning was very willing.

They two gentlemen, how unpromising must they be, for the dignified princess to do this?

It was rare for Zhao Shiqi to educate her: "Princess, marriage is not a trifling matter. He is not worthy of you at all, even though he is indeed handsome. I will not help you argue with His Majesty about this matter. You should also rest assured that I am here , Yi Yu's matter can always be resolved."

Zhao Zongning was so angry that his face turned red: "Who has taken a fancy to his face! In terms of good looks, it still belongs to Sun Zhuyun! He can't even compare with Jiang Yanhuan! So what should we do now? If my brother asks Yi Yu to return to Yangzhou, he will be the prisoner." Those people don’t know how to make a fuss, I’m so annoyed by those people. If we don’t drive him away, will we really let such a person with ulterior motives stay in the capital?”

Zhao Shiqi had arranged those things, but now he felt that it would be beneficial to put Yi Yu in the capital.

He said: "Your Majesty disagrees, and I don't agree either. The princess should stop thinking about it. As for what to do, it is a matter between Your Majesty and me. Don't worry."

"Really..." Zhao Zongning knew that they were doing her best, but she really didn't realize how big this marriage was.She never cared about these things, but neither her elder brother nor Xiao Shiyi supported her. She was even angrier than when she came out of the palace, and left without saying hello.

After she left, Yin Mo worried: "What's wrong with the princess? Are you so angry?"

"No problem, Mu Fu will come back later, I have something to tell you."

"Okay, the servant girl knows!"

"Is there something wrong at home? I'll go back to the palace first, and I still have books to read."

"It's gone, sir, don't worry, come back."

Zhao Shiqi nodded and walked away.

As soon as he left, Yin Mo remembered that something really happened.The Lin family who often delivered things to their house recently sent more and more, and there was even a purse embroidered by the girl.The purse is extraordinarily delicate, the stitches are beautifully pressed, and the color scheme is also generous, which is very suitable for Mr. Wang.

Yan Mo wanted to find out which girl this was, but he was afraid of offending her.

She felt that it was obvious that her husband had been admired by others.She was quite happy, but forgot to say.She wanted to chase him out to ask Zhao Shiqi for advice, but Zhao Shiqi walked so fast that he was nowhere to be seen.She spread her hands, planning to talk about it next time when she is free.

Yi Yu's matter was temporarily delayed.

Zhao Cong didn't say to keep him in the capital, but the adults who will be in charge are enthusiastic and excited, they go to the palace almost every day to ask His Majesty for permission.Fortunately, the foreign envoys were still in Kaifeng, and Zhao Cong had the perfect excuse to see them again.

Also because the envoys were still there, Zhao Shiqi deliberately set fire to Yi Yu's house, but he couldn't do it at this time.Yi Yu's house is big and eye-catching, and it has a certain reputation in the neighborhood.After such a fire, everyone in the city knew it, and it was inevitable that it would be a bit embarrassing.To put it bluntly, this is Zhao Cong's face loss, and the omen is not good, Zhao Shiqi is not willing.

Yi Yu has been honest these days, and never went to the palace to ask to see him again.

Mu Fu and others have rushed to Hangzhou, and Zhao Shiqi is waiting for his news every day.

After Yeluqin left the palace with a sad face that day, he entered the palace with a smile on his face a day later, and everyone couldn't figure out what this meant.

However, Zhao Cong got along very well with Yeluqin, and Xie Wenrui happened to be there when Yeluqin entered the palace.Xie Wenrui also served as a deputy envoy to the Liao Kingdom, and Yeluqin knew him, so when he saw him, he smiled and said, "Oh! Thank you, my lord!"

"Emissary Liu." Xie Wenrui saluted.

"Don't, don't, we're old friends, don't be so polite. Mr. Xie, you passed by the Duting Station a few days ago and left before I came back. You don't regard me, Yelvqin, as a friend! "

It's okay if I don't mention it, but when I mention Xie Wenrui, I will think of that sad night again.

Does he want to go?

He didn't want to leave at all, so Gu Ci drove him away.

He couldn't handle Gu Ci before, Gu Ci was eccentric.Now, Gu Ci changed his personality, and he couldn't control it anymore.

Yeluqin had already made a joke, but seeing him frowning, he couldn't help but reflect, did he make a joke?

Zhao Cong listened and watched, and knew that Xie Wenrui, an idiot, hadn't succeeded.

He shook his head secretly, and decided to help Xie Wenrui again.

Zhao Cong smiled and said, "Emissary Liu, this time you came to Kaifeng, and it is said that you brought one of your wizards with you?"

Yeluqin laughed heartily: "The reputation of Ah Ci has already spread to His Majesty?"

Hearing others call Gu Ci so intimately, Xie Wenrui felt even more sad.

Yeluqin continued: "A Ci is of half Han blood. His surname is Gu, but he is a very powerful wizard! Besides, he never cares about power. Our queen mother wants to make A Ci a high-ranking official, and he is not willing... ..." Yeluqin spoke enthusiastically for a long time.

Zhao Cong was very interested and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you invite him into the palace, so I can meet him better."

Yeluqin slapped his thigh: "Why is this so difficult?"

So we decided to share dinner tomorrow.

When Yeluqin came to the palace these days, meeting Zhao Cong was not an important matter, it was just chatting, talking everywhere.Established an alliance relationship, although the two of them were acting, but Yeluqin's temperament was very frank, so chatting like this was really enjoyable.

He chatted happily, and after the chat, he clapped his hands and left the palace.

Xie Wenrui was depressed and didn't know it, Zhao Cong said to him: "Wen Rui will also come to the palace tomorrow to have dinner together?"

"Your Majesty?" Xie Wenrui looked up excitedly.

Zhao Cong shook his head again, what an idiot.

When resting at night, Zhao Cong told Zhao Shiqi about the matter, saying: "Xie Wenrui is really not enlightened."

"If you want to get better, it's easy to do."

"Huh?" Zhao Cong was surprised.

Zhao Shiqi smiled: "When we eat tomorrow, put some medicine in the food of the two of them~"

Zhao Cong was stunned, and reached out to knock him on the head: "Where did I learn these bad ideas!" While knocking, he said, "Xie Wenrui's unrequited love, Gu Ci has had a difficult life for many years. I help Xie Wenrui because he is also difficult. .But in the matter of feelings, the emphasis is on agreeing with each other, how can there be someone like you!"

Zhao Shiqi thought to himself, the two of them were sticky in the previous life, and he gave them medicine to help them!

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Cong frowned: "Don't think about these things in the future! You are only a little older, and you only think about these things all day long!"

"Your Majesty, I'm sixteen." Zhao Shiqi simply hugged Zhao Cong and buried him in his shoulder, acting like a spoiled child.

"You are really, really..." Zhao Cong placed his hands for a while, finally hugged Zhao Shiqi, and taught softly, "You are a man. Although you are self-reliant, you also pay attention to acting boldly and not being coy. But with your identity, You have to remember that there are some things that you can't do no matter what the situation is. Remember?"

"Remember~ Your Majesty will not forget to teach me at this time."

"I'm doing this for your own good!"

"Your Majesty, what time is it, don't talk about it."

"When is it?" Zhao Cong wondered.

"I might sleep here today?"

"..."

"By default?"

"..." Zhao Cong remained silent.

Zhao Shiqi squeezed his arms tighter, smiled contentedly, and said in Zhao Cong's ear, "Your Majesty, we are so in love with each other, so happy with each other, there is no need for those medicines."

"You are talking nonsense!" Zhao Cong reprimanded in a low voice.

"Your Majesty is my medicine, I can't do it just by looking at it."

"...You—" Zhao Cong still needs to be educated again, but now it's really terrible, he dares to say anything!

Zhao Shiqi has already stopped his words and his tongue.

Zhao Shiqi kissed for a while, then asked softly, "Your Majesty, am I your medicine?"

After another half hour, Zhao Cong replied, "Yes."
