Rebirth of Qing Xin Fu Yan
Chapter 25
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he walked quickly to Fu Yanqing, bowed and saluted: "I beg your pardon, is that noble person here?"
Fu Yanqing hurriedly helped him up: "The old man is serious. I don't dare to be a nobleman. I come here uninvited. If I want to say it is presumptuous, I am the one."
"Where, you are welcome. The eldest lady has repeatedly told you that the nobleman may come to the capital in the near future. I have been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally let me wait. I have already notified the eldest lady. You sit down first, Xiao Wu, and watch tea!" The shopkeeper With a smile on his face, he looked very happy, and he was very respectful to Fu Yanqing.
Fu Yanqing smiled slightly: "Old man, I'm a junior, so you don't hurt me like this. My surname is Su, so you can call me Miss Su."
The shopkeeper was not a stubborn person either. Seeing that Fu Yanqing was serious, he quickly changed his words.
Fu Yanqing had heard about this shopkeeper a long time ago, and Cheng Yu had mentioned this old man many times in his letters before.The Sheng family made a fortune in the early years, but because of poor management, they were suppressed by the Xuan family, and finally had to leave the capital and go to Jiangnan to seek another livelihood.Sheng Yu's parents died early, and a dilapidated big family was supported by the eldest daughter Sheng Yu and the shopkeeper.
If he hadn't been taking care of Sheng Yu's sister and brother for so many years, and carefully teaching Sheng Yu, the Sheng family might have completely declined long ago.Therefore, Fu Yanqing also respected him from the bottom of his heart, and they were quite polite during their conversation, which added a lot of goodwill to him.
Fu Yanqing only sat for half a cup of tea when he heard two footsteps, one heavy and one light, and then the door creaked lightly, and the bamboo curtain in the inner room was lifted, Ah Qi and a woman walked in steadily .She was wearing a lavender dress with a purple knot around her waist, hanging down gracefully at her waist.
Opening the door curtain and coming in, her eyes fell on Fu Yanqing, a trace of surprise flashed across her desolate and delicate face, but it was like a flash in the pan, and in the blink of an eye, she looked condensed again.
Fu Yanqing stood up and didn't care about it. She nodded her hand lightly and said gently, "Cheng Yu, long time no see."
The woman called Sheng Yu looked her up and down for a while, the coldness between her eyebrows softened a little, and she said softly: "Long time no see." Her voice was also a little cold, like a mist in the rain.After she finished speaking, she turned to the shopkeeper and called out, "Uncle Qin."
Qin Yue responded, and said lovingly: "Miss is here, you two have a good talk, I will go to the kitchen to cook, and let Miss Su taste my cooking."
Sheng Yu nodded: "Let them help you."
Seeing Qin Bole leave happily, Cheng Yu slowly sat down beside Fu Yanqing, filled her glass with water, poured another glass for herself, and drank slowly.
Fu Yanqing shook his head: "It's been so many years, and your temperament still hasn't changed, and I don't know if you look like this when you're talking about business."
Cheng Yu pursed her lips: "They are looking at profit, as long as it is profitable, it doesn't make any difference whether I am hot or cold." After finishing speaking, she turned her head to look at Fu Yanqing, and said slowly: "You have changed. , more restrained than before."
I still remember that when the Sheng family was a merchant, they encountered horse thieves when they transported goods through the border between the Qiang people and Daxia. At that time, Fu Yanqing and his party passed by in the southwest desert and rescued their caravan.
At that time, Fu Yanqing was only 17 years old, she was dressed in plain clothes, and there was an inexplicable vicissitudes in her eyes, which made people know that she had a lot of thoughts hidden in her heart at a glance.But now, he is still the same person, except that his eyes are deeper than many of his peers, and his brows and eyes have become calm and peaceful.Although a little indifferent, she is not dissociated from the world, and has a lot of human touch, but this kind of her is also more confusing.
Fu Yanqing didn't answer, and smiled faintly: "In recent years, the business of the Sheng family has been doing very well."
"If you hadn't been supporting and helping me, I wouldn't have been able to do this." After that, she knocked on the table: "Chengji is now the largest grain shop in the capital, and last year's harvest was good, but the grain is not easy to sell. According to your instructions, I asked Uncle Qin to collect a lot of grain secretly, and several spare granaries are also full." After she finished speaking, she frowned: "But this year's weather is very good, and the crops are growing well. It's a good year, so much food..."
"As you said, it's as if nothing happened. It's only June, and there are still a few months before the harvest, and everything is unknown. Moreover, even if the harvest is good, there are not a few people who can't eat enough. Good harvest, good harvest They are only officials, and at that time, selling them at a low price will be regarded as a merit.” However, she clearly remembered that this year, there were floods in the summer, the Yellow River burst its embankment, and many grains were destroyed before a good harvest. once.
Sheng Yu nodded, and his slightly frowning brows also relaxed.
"By the way, the Xuan family's sale of private salt has already been exposed, but, as expected, they used the move of abandoning the car to protect the handsome man very smoothly."
Fu Yanqing raised his eyebrows: "If you don't abandon the car to protect the commander, how can you let the pawns fully recognize the people they are loyal to? Moreover, only those who escaped the catastrophe can feel safe before they can relax their vigilance. And I don't believe that half of the ledger can be easily destroyed by Xuan Shuo."
"Xuan Shuo escaped, and escaping is equivalent to finding a dead end." Sheng Yu's words were concise and clear, without any emotion.
"Then pray for him, my people can find him first." Fu Yanqing took a sip of tea, and then said seriously: "Shengyu, I am in the capital, and I need an identity. This identity must be able to deal with the people of the court in a fair manner. It will not get involved in court party disputes."
"I understand that from today onwards, you are the person in charge of the Sheng family. I have told you this since three years ago." Sheng Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he said bluntly.Fu Yanqing was kind to her in saving her life, and the two hit it off right away. Although they didn't see each other very often in the past three years, they never broke contact.Half of the success of the Sheng family's business is due to Fu Yanqing's support behind the scenes, but it's so difficult to borrow an identity.
"Thank you."
"Why do you and I need to say these two words, but what about your little Highness Qingmei, does she know that you are back?" Cheng Yu turned around, looked up at Fu Yanqing, and asked softly.
Fu Yanqing froze slightly: "Don't talk nonsense, she is His Highness the Ninth Prince after all, so it's not proper to criticize her behind her back."
"It's not Qingmei? Then you don't forget to ask me to inquire about her?" Cheng Yu's ice sculpture-like face forcibly showed a trace of doubt, which seemed a little funny.
Fu Yanqing gave her a helpless look: "It's better for you to be expressionless. I live in Changyang South Street, which is Xuanfu. If you need something, you can find me there."
"Xuan Mansion? That's wonderful. It was originally my Sheng family's place, but now it belongs to you, which proves your identity even more." After she finished speaking, she seemed to think of something, and said "oh" with a cold face, which was meaningful He looked at Fu Yanqing intently.
It happened that Xiao Wu came in and told the two of them to go out for dinner, Fu Yanqing ignored Sheng Yu and followed behind.Cheng Yu followed behind slowly, with a neither high nor low voice: "No wonder you are not in a hurry, you can have private meetings at night without anyone noticing, so there is no need to be in a hurry."
Fu Yanqing stagnated slightly, and then his expression was indifferent. Just being mentioned by Cheng Yu, his thoughts shifted to Zhao Ziyan. I don't know if she is better today.
After the two finished their meal, Sheng Yu put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said, "After so many years of preparation, now that you have chosen to come back, how do you plan to do it?"
Fu Yanqing paused: "Well, the most important thing now is... let the person who recognizes the true face of his pillow, dig out the hidden power of the Xiao family bit by bit, and... support His Highness the Ninth Prince."
Sheng Yu showed an expression that was so true, and nodded.
"However, what are you going to do?"
Fu Yanqing lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking: "Xiao Tuo went to the western region, and Zhao Mojian is also trying his best to search for a few remnants of Yongdi's treasure. Presumably, they will take action soon. And this time the Xuan family got involved in illicit salt. Although the case of trafficking allowed them to escape, there are not a few officials involved in the case, and it must be strictly investigated today. The half of the account book you left in your hand is enough to lead the fire to several ministers of Zhao Mojian's faction In the hands, as long as they find Xuan Shuo, they will be hurt."
"Well, in this way, even if it won't expose His Royal Highness's clique for personal gain, it will make her unintentionally bully your little Highness."
Fu Yanqing stared at her expressionlessly, and said in a low voice, "It seems that you are very free."
"The Sheng family now has more than forty shops, large and small, in the capital and various places. How can I be free?" Sheng Yu said solemnly while drinking tea.
"Well, besides that, it's really hard to deal with Uncle Qin worrying about your marriage."
Cheng Yu's expression froze, and then he said coolly: "You are one year older than me, and Uncle Qin even told you this, I'm afraid he was confused. But, speaking of this, after so many years, you have never met Have you ever been to the heart-beating person?"
Fu Yanqing looked dazed, and then calmed down: "This kind of thing is just icing on the cake, but now I don't need it, and I'm not qualified to want it."
Cheng Yu frowned: "A Jin, the situation is not out of control now, I have never understood why you push yourself so hard?"
"Chengyu" Fu Yanqing sighed: "In the future, you will understand. It seems calm now, but once the wind blows, what awaits us will be huge waves. Only when the Southwest Palace is completely safe can I relax, and there is no need to sleep overnight." Night... into that nightmare." After so many years, once she relaxes, she will return to that day at night, in the yellow sand all over the sky, the young lives that fell one by one, the hot blood that flows wantonly, merged into her wave. A nightmare that never goes away.
Cheng Yu looked at Fu Yanqing who seemed to be in a haze, and felt distressed in her eyes. Since she met, her friend has carried too many things. Apart from the fate of the Southwest Palace, there seems to be some unspeakable pain.
Fu Yanqing hurriedly helped him up: "The old man is serious. I don't dare to be a nobleman. I come here uninvited. If I want to say it is presumptuous, I am the one."
"Where, you are welcome. The eldest lady has repeatedly told you that the nobleman may come to the capital in the near future.
