When saying goodbye to Zhou Yu, the setting sun in the sky gradually sank, dyeing the layered clouds in the west into a majestic crimson.

The two walked back to Mi Mansion side by side.

Xu was interrupted, Xun Yu's restless heart finally calmed down.

He tried his best to convince himself that Mi Rian was unintentional, and he didn't need to delve into these meaningless things any more, and he slightly bent the arm on the side that was close to Mi Rian.In this way, when walking, you will not touch another person's hand as if you are not there.

Even if he is greedy for the feeling of that moment.

They walked slowly and thoughtfully.Although it is very slow, this short road will eventually reach the end.

Standing in front of the mansion, Xun Yu said goodbye to Mi Yan with a smile as usual: "Zi Su, it's getting late, so I..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Mi Yan stretched out her hand very naturally and took his hand.

The young man covered in rays of light smiled and said: "It's time for dinner, I don't know if Uncle Xun and the others have had dinner after Wenruo returns? Why don't you stay at my house and chat with Zhaoxian and You'an for a while?" , and then eat together."

He paused, and added: "I've been traveling for a long time, and I have a lot of things in my heart that I want to say to Wen Ruo."

Xun Yu: "...OK."

His thoughts were all on the cool and dry palms of his hands, and he didn't even know what he was answering indiscriminately.

After a while, Xun Shuang, who received the message from the attendants of the Mi Mansion: ...

He really regrets it!

Just seeing that Wen Ruo has some thoughts about that Mi Zisu, why didn't he see that Mi Zisu is not interested in drinking?

This is great, to lure the wolf into the house!

He was angry and flicked his sleeves resentfully, as if his juicy Chinese cabbage had been crushed.But after a while, a little smile could not help appearing on his face.

Forget it, how can he manage young people's affairs?All in all, Wen Ruo doesn't have to suffer from lovesickness anymore.

Mi Rian and Xun Yu are walking leisurely in the well-arranged garden.His omnipotent housekeeper, Zhou Ci, briefly reported the quarrel between Mi You and Zhao Yun after he left the mansion.

At that time, Mi You and her martial arts teacher were fighting each other. After watching from the sidelines, Zhao Yun felt that their fight was too soft and boring, so he tried to test her.On weekdays, Mi You only fought against the martial arts teacher who threw water from time to time, but Zhao Yun, who had been on the battlefield, had no strength to parry, and he didn't even catch a single move, and fell backwards unexpectedly.

After getting up, I realized that the palm of my hand was bleeding.

Mi Ren's footsteps paused: "Are you injured?"

"I lost a little bit of skin when I fell down. Young Master Yun has already apologized and bandaged the lady himself." The butler's tone was a little light, and it sounded impartial, but after listening carefully, he was still complaining about the young man's recklessness. "Miss has forgiven Mr. Yun for his recklessness."

Xun Yu frowned slightly when he heard this: "Although Ah Yun is alert and skilled in martial arts, he is still young. His temper is a little bit jumpy, and he needs more training."

Mi Yan smiled: "It's okay, this is the unique arrogance and impulsivity of children of this age, just read more books to settle it down. The better the seedling, the more it will take a lot of hard work to take shape."

The butler tentatively said: "Then, we need to separate Miss Yun from Mr. Yun..."

"No, it's good that they study together and can motivate each other."

Xun Yu looked at Mi Ren in surprise.They all saw his love for Mi You, and they didn't intend to separate them.

Mi Yan seemed to have guessed his unspoken question: "Learning martial arts always suffers a little injury. What's more, Ah Yun has already realized his recklessness, and I am not ignorant, so I wouldn't blame him for such a trivial matter."

"Ayou doesn't want to confine herself to a boudoir, but also wants to study and practice martial arts like ordinary men, and has been working hard for it. But her martial arts teacher always has a lot of worries, and he can't harden his heart to teach her, so that So far, all she has learned is Huaquan and embroidered legs. I am afraid that she will give birth to a wrong cognition and run amok in the future."

"It's just right to be with Ayun, so we can recognize the reality and make progress together." Mi Ren said, "As for her, if she is beaten by Ayun and doesn't want to learn anymore, then she won't study."

He said lightly, "Anyway, my sister, who dares to bully her?"

Ren Gu and Guan Ning are playing chess.

Seeing that Mi Ren brought Xun You back after sending Xun You back to the mansion, both of them were a little bit nervous.I thought that the two of them had something important to discuss, but in the end they were called to chat for a while, and then had dinner together.

After dinner, everyone moved to the study.

There is no suitable entertainment content, and playing cards does not match the temperament of several people, so Ren Gu moved out of the chessboard and continued to play chess.

The first players to play chess are Ren Gu and Guan Ning.Guan Ning is not good at chess, and soon lost to Ren Gu by three players.

Next came Mi Rian and Xun Yu.Whoever can win will play against Ren Gu again.

Maybe it's because of Shensi's incompetence, Xun Yu's chess game has fallen off the standard, not to mention losing the opportunity at the beginning, and even made several wrong moves in the follow-up.

However, it was Xun Yu in the end, he quickly concentrated on abandoning his impetuousness, and slowly immersed his mind in the chess game.

So he didn't know that Mi Yan on the opposite side was resting his chin with his left hand and staring at him with a smile.

He had known before that his Wen Ruo had delicate features and an attractive appearance.This look is not as aggressive as his, which attracts countless eyes at a glance.But it is a comfortable feeling that is clearer than the breeze and gentler than the autumn sun.

It looks good and I like it too.

Among the four, Xun Yu and Ren Gu were thinking of a way to break the situation, but Guan Ning discovered it.

He is careful, if he was just curious about why Mi Yan called this strategist back again during dinner, now that he looks at him like this, he basically understands it.

He thought for a while, then bent his elbow to support Ren Gu who was still waiting to play chess with them: "I'm a little sleepy, Zhaoxian."

Ren Gu's eyes were still lingering on the chessboard: "Then You'an, let's go back to the room to rest."

Seeing that he didn't realize the ambiguous feelings flowing between the two, Guan Ning patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and pulled him up: "Come with me, I have something to teach you."

Ren Gu followed Guan Ning without knowing why.

When the two walked out of the study room, they were both aroused by the oncoming cold wind and had goosebumps all over their bodies. They resolutely accelerated their pace and returned to the guest room.

After returning, Guan Ning asked, "Zhaoxian, do you know Mr. Xun Wenruo Xun?"

"Huh? Why did You'an ask this?" Ren Gu poured himself a cup of still warm water to moisten his throat, "I understand. Wen Ruo was from the Xun family in Yingchuan. A person, you will be able to notice this after you come into contact with him..."

He gave a general description of Xun Yu's personality. In his opinion, this young son of a family is full of advantages and has no shortcomings.Especially following Mi Rian's point of view.

"A gentleman is dignified and gentle like jade." Guan Ning mused, "It seems that he is a very nice person."

If this is the case, it is not surprising that Zi Su is happy with him.

After all, in this world, how many other people can have such a demeanor?

Thinking of this, Guan Ning smiled slightly, completely letting go of this worry.He washes up and goes to bed.

Ren Gu was at a loss: "Didn't You'an have a question to ask me, why did you go to bed?"

Guan Ning: "... I've finished asking."

A little puzzled look appeared on Ren Gu's face, and he quickly remembered the only question about Xun Yu that Guan Ning asked just now, and was speechless for a while. "So you just want to know Wen Ruo?"

Seeing that he hadn't turned the corner yet, Guan Ning felt powerless.The tone was full of helplessness: "Yes, otherwise what do you think?"

"What's the point of asking, you can get to know his temper after you get along with him for at most one day." Ren Gu Erzhang was puzzled, "Is it necessary to call me out alone and ask specifically?"

He hasn't finished playing chess yet, and it seems that Wen Ruo lost to Zisu in that game, and he still wants to play a good game with Zisu!

"You, you!" Guan Ning threw a pillow at him resentfully, "Go to bed early!"

When the two returned to the guest room, Xun Yu finally thought about it thoroughly and made a move on the chessboard.

This step is not very clever, but it is the only way for him to deduce a bit of victory.

He exhaled lightly, looked up at Mi Ren.Only then did they realize that there were only the two of them left in the huge study room. As for Ren Gu and Guan Ning who were watching, they didn't know where to go.

Xun Yu was at a loss for a moment.

Mi Yan saw that he was at a loss, and smiled: "They are a little tired and went back to sleep."

So early?

This will be at least an hour away from the usual bedtime, right?

...of course it doesn't matter.The important thing is that he has to be alone with Zisu again.

Realizing this, his pupils tightened slightly.In the dim light, his heart beats like the cluster of flames on the kerosene lamp, flickering and flickering.

Really nervous.

Mi Yan chuckled lightly.

He casually dropped a piece on the chessboard, and said, "Wen Ruo, I have something I want to show you."

Signaling Xun Yu to sit at the desk, he found more than ten thick paper books from the bookshelf and piled them in front of Xun Yu.

Xun Yu hesitantly opened the book with the words "Liuli Account Book" written on it.Then I saw grid-like patterns drawn on the paper, which recorded in detail a glazed product made in a certain year and month, the selling price, and where it went.

"This is a form, and it is the most suitable method for keeping accounts at present." Mi Ren said.

After seeing the price of the glazed horse above, Xun Yu was slightly startled.The more I scroll down, the more shocked I am, all my charming thoughts disappear.

He knew the preciousness of colored glaze, and the family carefully preserved several colored glaze products, but he didn't know that these things could be sold for such a high price!

Seeing later that the colored glaze produced by the Mi family is no longer privately sold, but basically given to the imperial court, he knew it in his heart again.

Colored glass is rare and expensive in this era, and there is no market for it. Its large-scale circulation in the market loses its significance as a luxury.So Mi Rian relied on Liuli to connect with the ten permanent attendants, step by step to the current position of national teacher.

Ten years of layout, finally not in vain.

Xun Yu sighed and put down the account book in his hand, and Mi Ren motioned him to read the next one.

He held up the "paper account book" beside him as he said.

Paper industry, papermaking?

This connection subconsciously emerged in Xun Yu's mind.He flipped open the book unpreparedly, and the first page on the top was the price of the quantity that the gentry in Beijing crazily bought when the rice paper first came out eight years ago, the cost of making this batch of rice paper, and the final profit.

The calm expression on his face was completely broken.He cried out in surprise: "Isn't papermaking improved by Cai Jun? Why does Zisu have his account book?!"

Mi Yan suppressed the corners of her upturned lips, took a sip of warm water and said Shi Shiran, "Because Cai Jun has always cooperated with me."

Xun Yu turned pale with shock.He finally realized something was wrong, and opened the "cotton account book" pressed underneath.

Seeing that the above content was similar, he was dumbfounded: "This, these industries..."

Mi Yan nodded: "These are all the wealth I have accumulated over the years."

When Xun Yu heard this, he scribbled through all the account books with trembling hands.

He was still shocked at first, but when he finished flipping through the stack of account books and got a general understanding of Miyen's family business, he became numb to the point of expressionlessness.

There are too many industries that Zisu can make money from!

Expensive such as pens, ink, paper, inkstone, cotton cloth, silk, rare such as salt, sugar, iron smelting... They are all just one of his means of making money!

After making money, many merchants under his command bought land, planted grain, bought mines, and produced ironware in their hometown... The accumulation over the years may have reached an unimaginable number.

Xun Yu sat on the wooden chair in a daze.

Before that, he only knew that Mi Yan's family had a lot of money, he was open-minded and open-minded, and he especially liked to give gifts to others.Xun Shuang once persuaded Mi Ren not to be too generous, but this person laughed it off.

Only now did he know that his family was so rich, and the things he gave away were here, probably not even a corner!

His mind was a mess.There are thousands of thoughts in my heart, and they finally converge into a simple sentence: "Today is really an eye-opener for me..."

Hearing this, Mi Yan raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "It's okay."

His face was calm, but his tone was extremely hypocritical, and he was so proud that he didn't even realize it.

Xun Yu was still in a daze.

He was able to be told these things by Zisu today, perhaps it was due to his recommendation of talents.Do Ren Gu and Guan Ning, who have a better relationship with Zisu, know these details?

It's just him today, if the court finds out about his property in the future...

I'm afraid even Liu Hong, who loves him so much, will be jealous, and then kill Zisu for these things!

"No." Thinking of this, Xun Yu suddenly came to his senses, "Zi Su, you can't put these here, if someone else finds out, I'm afraid it will lead to death!"

"Don't worry, Wen Ruo." Mi Ren comforted with a smile, "No one knows the whole picture except you and my few stewards."

Ren Gu and Guan Ning only knew one or two of them, but not all of them; even the merchants under his command might recognize each other, but they didn't know that the other party was his colleague.

As for his stewards, most of them were people he had saved and were willing to repay their lives for him, even Zhou Ci.

Although people's hearts are changeable, he still has a system to supervise him.So far, there has been a rebellion by a merchant under his command, but it was quickly detected and settled by him, and then left the impression of being a god in the hearts of everyone.

Don't dare to betray easily.

"As for the reason why I told Wen Ruo these things today, I hope that Wen Ruo can arrange assignments for me when I'm not around in the future."

Xun Yu was startled again, subconsciously refused: "No, this matter is too important to the Lord, I, I'm afraid I can't..."

Mi Yan raised her hand to stop his unspoken words.

"But I believe in Wen Ruo," he said, "In this troubled world, I only believe in Wen Ruo."

When Xun Yu heard this, his heart was shaken.

He raised his head and stared at Mi Ren in a daze, seeing the unreserved trust in this man's eyes, his heart beat like a drum.

Bang, bang, bang!His heart was beating harder and harder, and with a domineering attitude, he brazenly announced to his ears that everything about Mi Yan had been completely controlled by it!

He felt the blood flowing wantonly in his body.It surged out from the heart and swept across his whole body like a prairie fire, causing his rationality and calmness to collapse in an instant!

I can only promise him, thank him, and then do my best to repay him!

Dominated by an unknown force, Xun Yu got up and made a big gift to Mi Eun: "It is a blessing for Yu's three lives to gain the trust of the lord. Yu should devote himself to the lord, never give up, and give everything for the lord!"

Mi Yan puts trust in him, and he should repay him as a national scholar.

"I know," Mi Yan helped him up, held his hand and smiled, "I know your feelings for me, just like I have for you."

Xun Yu didn't fully understand what he meant, and subconsciously showed an understood smile.

"Take a look at these account books slowly, the housekeeper will also assist you in the future." Seeing that he was buried in his head and was about to turn on the lamp to read at night, Mi Ren raised her hand and slapped the table. "Let's stop here today. It's late at night, and it's time for us to go to bed."

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and murmured following his words for a long time: "We... us?"

"Well, the guest room Zhao and You'an fell asleep first." Mi Yan looked at him innocently, "I can't sleep with three people, so I can only feel wronged that Wen Ruo slept with me tonight."

Xun Yu:  …

Mi Yan didn't realize it, and smiled slightly.

Some people, on the surface, seem calm and calm, but in fact they have already laid a net, waiting to completely capture the person in their hearts.
