Prodigal Goro-kun
Chapter 41
"Sister, you have wronged me." Yan Qiuer laughed, "I only saw these two after I arrived at Tengyuan Hall, why don't you hurry up and ask Dad to call sister?"
Yan Fusheng hid behind Yan Qiuer, let out a groan in reproach, and punched Yan Qiuer hard on the back.
"Sister, why did you hit me?!" Yan Qiuer yelled strangely, and the whole room burst into laughter again.
Yan Sheng just sat at the head and watched silently, letting Yan Qiuer make trouble.If it wasn't for the honorable Qin Jiu here, the head of his family wouldn't be here to accompany the younger generation to entertain guests. Although he can participate in it regardless of age, Yan Sheng is originally a quiet person.
Qin Jiu still looked at Yan Fusheng blankly, blinked, blinked again, then tugged on Lin Qian's sleeve: "Hey, that... is Yan San?"
Lin Qian pulled back his sleeve, looked at Qin Jiu with a delicate expression and asked, "Did you really not notice?"
"I...she...she..." Qin Jiu "she" didn't say anything for a while, but she didn't know what she thought of, and her face turned red.
After meeting for the first time, he and Lin Qian had no chance to see Yan Qiuer, but they often saw Yan Fusheng. Qin Jiu felt that Yan Fusheng hit it off, and the three of them often met for drinking and entertainment. He regarded Fusheng as a brother, and they They hooked their shoulders together and drank a jar of wine together. They...Qin Jiu suddenly remembered something, and slapped Lin Qian on the back.
"Hey! Fusheng just finished beating Qiuer, why are you beating me again?"
If Lin Qian only said the second half of the sentence, it would be fine, but he added the first half of the sentence, insisting to link Yan Fusheng and Qin Jiu together, such an obvious hint that people don't want to be wrong.
"You found out a long time ago that she is a woman, why didn't you tell me?!" Qin Jiu lowered his voice and complained to Lin Qian.He didn't think much about it before, but when he thought about it carefully just now, he realized that whenever the three of them were together, Lin Qian would always keep a distance from Yan Fusheng. Lin Qian would have found out at that time, but he didn't tell him for a long time , now he, he...
"I'll wait for you to find out by yourself." Lin Qian smirked.
"You!" Qin Jiu stared.This is related to the reputation of the daughter's family, Lin Qian, that brat!
"Strange, Sister Fusheng lives in a deep boudoir, how could she know the two of you?" Xu Shi was not willing to be left out, Yanfeng interjected inappropriately.
As soon as Yan Feng's words fell, the happy atmosphere in Tengyuan Hall was instantly shattered, and Yan Qi and the others, who had finally relaxed, tensed up again.
What kind of temperament Yan Fusheng is and what he does on a daily basis, the people in Chang'an Yan's Mansion are very clear. Seeing Yan Qiu'er singing with Lin Qian today, everyone can see some clues, and Yan Qiuer's Most of the actions had Yan Sheng's tacit consent, so they kept silent, but Yan Feng suddenly brought this matter up, did he really not see it or did it on purpose?
"Yo! Why is Ah Feng here? Aren't you being filial to your grandmother in this family? Why did you come to Chang'an?" Yan Xun greeted Yan Feng with a smile as if he had just seen Yan Feng.
Hearing this, Yan Feng gasped in his chest.why is he hereHe's been sitting here for a long time!
"Isn't it just that staying with grandma always annoyed grandma, so I was sent to Chang'an Yan's mansion to study with my uncle. It has been seven or eight days since I arrived in Chang'an. I didn't have time to visit and visit my cousin. Haihan."
dismiss?Hearing this word, Yan Xun glanced at Yan Sheng without any trace, but saw that there was no reaction on Yan Sheng's face, his eyes slid from Yan Sheng to Yan Qi and then all the way back, Yan Xun found the gentlemen of Chang'an Yan Mansion The complexion of each child is getting darker than the other.
"So that's it." Yan Xun nodded, with a look of sudden realization, "It turns out that the business in Jiangnan is so idle, and your own son is still free to come to Chang'an to help."
Hearing these words, Yan Feng didn't know how to answer for a while.
Yan Xun didn't give Yan Feng a chance to refute, and continued like an elder: "It's rare that you have such filial piety, but don't cause trouble for Tang Shu. Tang Shu's place is no better than yours in Jiangnan. In terms of business, it's a little bit worse." You can’t make any mistakes, otherwise it will mess up the whole Yan family. When Tang Shu didn’t assign you an errand, you should be a little perceptive. Find more books to read. I heard that when Mr. Dalang and the others were young They are all self-study by reading first, you can go to them to borrow two books, but don’t let the uncle hold you back. Oh, by the way, I have nothing to ask you anyway, why don’t you go read the books now Learn about it?"
Yan Xun's words made sense, but Yan Feng couldn't think of a word to refute.
"What my cousin said is right. Ah Feng has been here these days, but I, as the eldest brother, have been negligent. Now that I have mentioned it, it is better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Ah Feng, you can go back with me and choose a few books." .Erlang, Sanlang, Shiro, do you have some books? Go get them and show them to Ah Feng.”
As the grand lord of the Yan family, although Yan Qi is a bit gentler than the others, he is the one who has followed Yan for the longest time, and his ability to observe words and expressions is not bad at all. Chasing people away, recalling that in the past, after Yan Xun came to the house to make trouble, he always wanted to discuss matters with Yan Sheng, so Yan Qi took his brothers away knowingly.The only reason I didn't mention Yan Qiuer was because Yan Qi couldn't figure out what Yan Sheng meant. If Yan Sheng didn't want Yan Qiuer to stay, then if Yan Qi didn't speak up, Yan Sheng would open his mouth to drive people away, but if Yan Sheng wanted to Yan Qiuer stays, and Yan Qi asks to take someone away again, which is more or less inappropriate.Now Yan Qiuer's position in Yan's family is very delicate, Yan Qi, a law-abiding person, will try every means to avoid issues related to Yan Qiuer, so as not to offend Yan Sheng.
If you break up people who want to be together without understanding, you will be hated.
"Well, that's true, then let's go." The brothers got up one after another, surrounded Yan Feng in a half-moon shape, and looked at Yan Feng with malicious smiles.
Yan Feng's scalp was numb from the sight of several people, and he didn't dare to move.
"What? Ah Feng's leg is numb?" Yan Zheng turned cold, grabbed Yan Feng's arm, and lifted him up unceremoniously.This kid has targeted Goro several times, is it itchy?I really don't know why my grandmother sent this useless person to the Yan Mansion. Is it because they think Chang'an Yan Mansion is too deserted?
"Haha, Ah Feng is not so weak, but just sit for a while, walk around." Yan Xintang put his arms around Yan Feng's neck, dragged him away, and winked at Yan Qiuer before leaving.
Yan Zheng also gave Yan Qiuer a wink, and followed Yan Xintang to leave.
Yan Qi turned around to bid farewell to the guests for his younger brothers, and then left.Yan Yuan didn't speak from the beginning to the end, but the way he looked at Yan Qiuer changed a few times, and when Yan Qi walked out, Yan Yuan followed Yan Qi's footsteps.
Yan Qiuer was originally a little unhappy because of Yan Feng's speech, but after noticing Yan Xintang's and Yan Zheng's winks, he found it funny.
He seems to have successfully established a relationship with Yan Xintang and Yan Zheng?Just relying on a few news of the sale?Is it because he has changed, he has noticed, and the things around him have also changed?Many people and things are different from the memory of the previous life, but fortunately, it is not a bad change.
As for Yan Qi, that person is too dutiful, these few days he seldom comes to buy news from him, occasionally meet and maintain a moderate friendship, so far it is still harmless.As for Yan Yuan... Thinking of the enmity in her previous life, Yan Qiuer's eyes darkened for an instant.
Just as she was thinking, someone poked Yan Qiuer's back suddenly, and when Yan Qiuer turned her head, she saw Yan Fusheng fidgeting.
Yan Qiuer smiled helplessly, and turned to Yan Sheng to ask about their siblings, but Yan Sheng was one step ahead of him.
"You two stay, Yan Xun has nothing serious to say."
"Uncle Tang, you have wronged me! I really came to you today on a serious matter!" Yan Xun angrily defended himself.
"You need me for something, but the invitation was sent to Wulang?" Yan Sheng gave Yan Xun a cold look.
"Uh..." Yan Xun rubbed his nose, "Uncle, don't be angry because I'm so smart just now, can you? Isn't it all right, little cousin? Only by wrestling can you be successful!"
"It turns out that you owe a beating for being so worthless? Do you need me to help you?"
"...Tang uncle, are we still friends? I didn't see you so angry when I fell on Yanzheng last time. You are treating me differently!"
Yan Sheng's martial arts was also taught by the second uncle of the Yan family himself, so Yan Sheng and Yan Xun, who are similar in age, can be considered to have grown up together, and their relationship is much closer than others. After entering the Yan family's business, Yan Xun climbed to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War step by step. The two supported each other in Chang'an City, and their friendship was even more profound all the way to this day.
"We are friends?" Yan Sheng looked at Yan Xun with ridicule, "I just remember that I am your cousin."
"Little cousin, hurry up and take care of your father! Your grandmother gave him the habit!" Yan Xun went to the doctor in a hurry, and asked Yan Qiuer for help.
Yan Qiuer took the tea set from Liang Cheng when Yan Xun and Yan Sheng started bickering, and was making tea carefully at this time, when he heard Yan Xun's helpless noise, he looked up at Yan Xun with a blank expression on his face Open the mouth: "What? My cousin called me?"
It's not that he didn't hear the quarrel between the two, but it's the first time in two lifetimes that Yan Sheng was so lively. Yan Qiuer found it interesting and wanted to see more.
"You are also used by your cousin. You go to the house to expose tiles all day long, and you want me to tell the second cousin about this and discipline you?" Yan Qiuer's help made Yan Sheng feel a little proud and happy.
Isn't it just raising a beautiful son?What is he proud of!Yan Xun gritted his teeth in hatred, but had no choice but to beg Yan Sheng for mercy.If his uncle found out about his habit of attacking at night, then he really don't want these legs!
"Uncle, I was wrong! It's all my fault! Uncle, you have a lot, but don't tell uncle! He is used to being a prince and a tutor. If you know my bad habit, you will never see me again. Me!"
"I can't see the peace." Yan Sheng made a sharp stab.
Yan Xun was instantly discouraged, and sat on the ground lifeless.
His cousin is obviously reticent, but why is he the one who loses every time he argues?
"Father, drink some tea." Yan Qiuer's tea was ready, and the first cup was delivered to Yan Sheng as usual.
With the hot tea in hand, Yan Sheng felt completely at ease. He glanced at the half-dead Yan Xun, and asked mercifully, "Is it something important for you to let two noble people condescend to come to my place?"
"Yes! Of course I did! Didn't I say that I have something serious to come to you!" It was rare for Yan Sheng to take the initiative to ask a question, and Yan Xun immediately regained his energy. After answering Yan Sheng's question, he turned to look at Lin Qian and Qin Nine.
"Patriarch Yan is serious. The two of us are friends with the third wife and Mr. Wu Lang. In front of Patriarch Yan, we can be regarded as juniors, let alone a noble status. Compared with Patriarch Yan, who wins status with his hands , relying on family background, we are far behind. Today, I came to the door to ask for something, and I hope that the master of Yan family will forgive me if I am rude." After speaking, Qin Jiu bowed respectfully to Yan Sheng.
Yan Fusheng sat beside Yan Qiuer, staring blankly at the handsome Qin Jiu, pulled Yan Qiuer's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Wu Lang, that person is really Qin Jiu? How do you think... ..." Why do you think it's different from the Qin Jiu who used to drink and mess around with her?He didn't expect this person to be more decent than Lin Qian when he was upright.
Yan Qiuer just smiled and said nothing.
"This gift from the Ninth Prince cannot be tolerated by Yan." Even though he said this, Yan Sheng did not hide or dodge, and he did not show any panic.
As soon as Yan Sheng's words came out, Yan Qiu'er and Liang Cheng were not surprised, but they frightened Lin Qian and Qin Jiu.The two looked around, and found that Yan Qiuer and the others also had a look they had known for a long time, only Yan Fusheng was shocked.
Qin Jiu was startled, and then smiled in relief.
"People often say that the Patriarch of the Yan family is young and promising, and has the appearance of an emperor in the business world. When I saw you today, this junior is convinced. But can you ask Patriarch Yan to tell this junior, where did this junior show his flaws?"
"Caomin dare to ask the Ninth Prince to reflect on himself. Where does the Ninth Prince think he has shown his flaws?"
Lin Qian's eyes tightened. Knowing that Yan Sheng wanted to try Qin Jiu, he couldn't help but sweat for the dull Qin Jiu.
"Hmm..." After listening to Yan Sheng's words, Qin Jiu didn't feel unhappy, but really began to reflect on himself. After thinking for a while, he seemed to have found the answer, "Master Yan met me for the first time today, but this tone seems to be too early. As expected, I guess someone has revealed my identity to Patriarch Yan in advance, and the person who can reveal my identity to Patriarch Yan..." Qin Jiu's gaze went back and forth between Yan Qiuer and Yan Fusheng , and finally fixed on Yan Qiuer, "It must be Lord Wulang, right?"
"How do you know?" It's not too stupid.
"Fusheng is a girl. Even though she is more lively than the other daughters, her knowledge and experience is limited. But as the Lord of the Yan family, I believe that even if Lord Wulang does not go out, there are still some things that must be known. The Yan family can become a pivotal figure in the Tianlan Kingdom. Everyone, with the support of Yan Xun's lineage, it must not be difficult to know the characteristics of the royal family members, right?"
"Well, it's really not difficult." Yan Sheng admitted generously.
"It's just that I'm still unclear about one thing." Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiu'er, hoping that Yan Qiu'er could clarify his doubts.
"Ninth Prince, please tell me."
"When I go out on weekdays, I will get rid of all the objects that can symbolize my identity on my body. I even pay special attention to my clothes. How did Mr. Wulang notice my identity?"
Yan Qiuer smiled, reached out and patted her waist.
waist?Qin Jiu looked down at his waist. There was only a jade disk hanging there. There were dragon patterns carved on the jade disk. Only the two sides of the gap in the jade disk were as red as blood, and the rest of the jade disk was as white as snow.
Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiuer again, and said in astonishment: "This jade ring is a relic of my concubine, few people in the palace noticed it, how did you know?"
"Secret." Yan Qiuer smiled mysteriously.
"I see." Qin Jiu nodded as if realizing something.It seems that the Yan family's intelligence network is more detailed and rigorous than he imagined, "It seems that I will even get rid of this when I go out in the future." What the Yan family can know, there is no guarantee that others will not know.
"The Ninth Prince came to find Yan, why?" This Qin Jiu did not hold on to his identity, and treated others with humility and generosity. He was somewhat different from Yan Sheng's imagined royal family, but to Yan Sheng who was somewhat proud, this Fan Xinxing is more to his liking, so after probing, it is time to get down to business.
Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly praised Qin Jiu's luck.People don't have to be smart, as long as they are smart enough at critical moments, they are witty.As for finding a partner, in addition to tact, you also need to agree with each other. If you don't like it at the beginning, the alliance is not reliable.
Qin Jiu also breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to Lin Qian.The next explanation was Lin Qian's task.
Lin Qian looked at Liang Cheng and Tang Shuo suggestively, and then said with a smile: "This matter may not be a big deal to Patriarch Yan, but it is a move of life and death for us. I hope ..."
"It doesn't matter." In the Yan Mansion, wherever Yan Sheng is, there are almost no servants and maidservants. The maidservants were sent out, and now there were only six of them, Liang Cheng and Tang Shuo in Tengyuan Hall.
Besides, everyone in the Yan family knew that Yan Xun had brought two extraordinary people to visit today. Isn't it too late for Lin Qian to think of it now to avoid suspicion?
"If Patriarch Yan thinks it's okay, then it's okay." Lin Qian still squinted his eyes and smiled, even Yan Sheng couldn't see what he was thinking. "In the early court three days ago, His Majesty decided to arrange a secret mission to Huihe."
This sentence gave Yansheng three messages: His Majesty intends to form an alliance with Huihe;But what does this have to do with their businessmen?Need financial support?Unable to guess the answer, Yan Sheng could only wait for Lin Qian to give him an answer.
As soon as Yan Qiuer heard the word Huihe, he immediately thought of related events.
"But there is a Turk between Tianlan and Huihe. If you want to be undetected, you can only disguise the mission team as a caravan." Lin Qian continued to speak while observing Yan Sheng's face, but Yan Sheng's face Lin Qian's expression didn't move at all, and Lin Qian gave up the rhythm of speaking while probing, and simply finished what he wanted to say, "However, no matter how we disguise the soldiers we can deploy, they are not businessmen after all. It’s impossible not to trade with them later in the country, so we need real merchants to mix in.”
"Tianlan is not the only merchant of my Yan family. It is not my Yan family who is closest to the royal family and the court. This matter is of great importance. I am afraid that it is inappropriate to use my Yan family."
"Master Yan is too modest." Yan Sheng's refusal was completely within Lin Qian's expectation, and he would be a fool who would agree to such a big matter, "Master Yan is right, the Yan family is just a few majors in Tianlan Kingdom One of the merchants, although Yan Xun's lineage is working in the court, the Yan family has never used the relationship between the court and China to expand the family business. Lin admires this. But the owner of the Yan family should also know that those who are related to the royal family and the court None of the merchants with close ties with the Ninth Prince is close to the Ninth Prince. Besides, when it comes to merchants, the Yan family is definitely the number one in Tianlan Kingdom. Your family’s caravans are all over the world? Your Yan family can go where others can go, and your Yan family can go where others can’t! Is what Lin said right?”
The corner of Yan Sheng's mouth raised slightly, and instead of answering himself, he asked Yan Qiuer: "Wu Lang, do you think what he said is right?"
Is it none of his business again?Yan Qiuer curled her lips, and replied: "Brother Lin is not completely correct, but he is quite close. The Yan family has been in business for a hundred years, starting with selling agricultural products, and then it was the beginning of trading. The relationship between the two townships can now be said to have traveled all over the world. The merchants of the Yan family are only affiliated to the merchants. The experience of merchants accumulated over a hundred years has been passed down from generation to generation. If they can be compared casually by other merchants, then I will The Yan family spent the past hundred years in vain. However... if the Yan family's caravans and soldiers go together, it may be difficult. Although the purpose may be the same, the way merchants and soldiers handle things is too different. There is a difference, Brother Lin Have you ever thought about it? For such a big event, if you are not careful, the team will never return, why should my Yan family take this risk?"
"Since we come to ask for help, we will definitely not treat the Yan family badly, we..."
"Will you treat the Yan family badly?" Yan Qiuer chuckled, and blocked Lin Qian's words, "What can you give to the Yan family? Money? Power? Glory? What do you think my Yan family lacks?"
Lin Qian was speechless.Qian Yan's family naturally has no shortage, right?If the Yan family wanted to spend their own money to buy him ten or eight idle jobs, how could they not be able to enter the officialdom with Yan Xun and the crown prince and Taifu helping them in the court?glory?As a merchant of the Yan family, the greatest glory is to earn tens of thousands of gold and silver. Their titles and titles are rare in the Yan family?Even if the Yan family is rare, His Majesty may not be willing to give it!Lin Qian was distressed, so they had nothing to repay the Yan family?
Lin Qian turned his head to look at Qin Jiu, but saw that Qin Jiu was also thinking hard.
"Uncle Tang, this matter is definitely not a bad thing for the Yan family. As long as they can pass through the Turkic territory safely, the Yan family has made a great contribution. If you can get a few promises from Your Majesty and a few privileges, it will be of great benefit to the Yan family!" If it is really something harmful but not beneficial, he will not bring anyone to find Tang Uncle.
"Cousin has already stood up?"
Yan Qiuer's sudden question stunned everyone present, and then they all understood what Yan Qiuer was asking.Yan Xun scratched his head and looked at Yan Sheng with some guilt.
According to the ancestors of the Yan family, they shouldn't be involved in royal battles, but it's fine if he is a useless petty official. Now he is the Minister of the Ministry of War. This official is not big or small. At the critical moment, he couldn't allow him to fish in troubled waters. If he really became a fool, he would be pulled out sooner or later.
He has never told Yansheng of his determination because he didn't want to drag Yansheng and Yan's family into the water, but this time he really has no other choice. If they miss this opportunity, they will be killed. It's fallen a lot!
"Yes, I have chosen."
Yan Sheng pursed his lips, Yan Qiuer only chuckled, and the expressions of the others became complicated.
Yan Fusheng hid behind Yan Qiuer, let out a groan in reproach, and punched Yan Qiuer hard on the back.
"Sister, why did you hit me?!" Yan Qiuer yelled strangely, and the whole room burst into laughter again.
Yan Sheng just sat at the head and watched silently, letting Yan Qiuer make trouble.If it wasn't for the honorable Qin Jiu here, the head of his family wouldn't be here to accompany the younger generation to entertain guests. Although he can participate in it regardless of age, Yan Sheng is originally a quiet person.
Qin Jiu still looked at Yan Fusheng blankly, blinked, blinked again, then tugged on Lin Qian's sleeve: "Hey, that... is Yan San?"
Lin Qian pulled back his sleeve, looked at Qin Jiu with a delicate expression and asked, "Did you really not notice?"
"I...she...she..." Qin Jiu "she" didn't say anything for a while, but she didn't know what she thought of, and her face turned red.
After meeting for the first time, he and Lin Qian had no chance to see Yan Qiuer, but they often saw Yan Fusheng. Qin Jiu felt that Yan Fusheng hit it off, and the three of them often met for drinking and entertainment. He regarded Fusheng as a brother, and they They hooked their shoulders together and drank a jar of wine together. They...Qin Jiu suddenly remembered something, and slapped Lin Qian on the back.
"Hey! Fusheng just finished beating Qiuer, why are you beating me again?"
If Lin Qian only said the second half of the sentence, it would be fine, but he added the first half of the sentence, insisting to link Yan Fusheng and Qin Jiu together, such an obvious hint that people don't want to be wrong.
"You found out a long time ago that she is a woman, why didn't you tell me?!" Qin Jiu lowered his voice and complained to Lin Qian.He didn't think much about it before, but when he thought about it carefully just now, he realized that whenever the three of them were together, Lin Qian would always keep a distance from Yan Fusheng. Lin Qian would have found out at that time, but he didn't tell him for a long time , now he, he...
"I'll wait for you to find out by yourself." Lin Qian smirked.
"You!" Qin Jiu stared.This is related to the reputation of the daughter's family, Lin Qian, that brat!
"Strange, Sister Fusheng lives in a deep boudoir, how could she know the two of you?" Xu Shi was not willing to be left out, Yanfeng interjected inappropriately.
As soon as Yan Feng's words fell, the happy atmosphere in Tengyuan Hall was instantly shattered, and Yan Qi and the others, who had finally relaxed, tensed up again.
What kind of temperament Yan Fusheng is and what he does on a daily basis, the people in Chang'an Yan's Mansion are very clear. Seeing Yan Qiu'er singing with Lin Qian today, everyone can see some clues, and Yan Qiuer's Most of the actions had Yan Sheng's tacit consent, so they kept silent, but Yan Feng suddenly brought this matter up, did he really not see it or did it on purpose?
"Yo! Why is Ah Feng here? Aren't you being filial to your grandmother in this family? Why did you come to Chang'an?" Yan Xun greeted Yan Feng with a smile as if he had just seen Yan Feng.
Hearing this, Yan Feng gasped in his chest.why is he hereHe's been sitting here for a long time!
"Isn't it just that staying with grandma always annoyed grandma, so I was sent to Chang'an Yan's mansion to study with my uncle. It has been seven or eight days since I arrived in Chang'an. I didn't have time to visit and visit my cousin. Haihan."
dismiss?Hearing this word, Yan Xun glanced at Yan Sheng without any trace, but saw that there was no reaction on Yan Sheng's face, his eyes slid from Yan Sheng to Yan Qi and then all the way back, Yan Xun found the gentlemen of Chang'an Yan Mansion The complexion of each child is getting darker than the other.
"So that's it." Yan Xun nodded, with a look of sudden realization, "It turns out that the business in Jiangnan is so idle, and your own son is still free to come to Chang'an to help."

Yan Feng's scalp was numb from the sight of several people, and he didn't dare to move.
"What? Ah Feng's leg is numb?" Yan Zheng turned cold, grabbed Yan Feng's arm, and lifted him up unceremoniously.This kid has targeted Goro several times, is it itchy?I really don't know why my grandmother sent this useless person to the Yan Mansion. Is it because they think Chang'an Yan Mansion is too deserted?
"Haha, Ah Feng is not so weak, but just sit for a while, walk around." Yan Xintang put his arms around Yan Feng's neck, dragged him away, and winked at Yan Qiuer before leaving.
Yan Zheng also gave Yan Qiuer a wink, and followed Yan Xintang to leave.
Yan Qi turned around to bid farewell to the guests for his younger brothers, and then left.Yan Yuan didn't speak from the beginning to the end, but the way he looked at Yan Qiuer changed a few times, and when Yan Qi walked out, Yan Yuan followed Yan Qi's footsteps.
Yan Qiuer was originally a little unhappy because of Yan Feng's speech, but after noticing Yan Xintang's and Yan Zheng's winks, he found it funny.

Yan Qiuer smiled helplessly, and turned to Yan Sheng to ask about their siblings, but Yan Sheng was one step ahead of him.
"You two stay, Yan Xun has nothing serious to say."
"Uncle Tang, you have wronged me! I really came to you today on a serious matter!" Yan Xun angrily defended himself.
"You need me for something, but the invitation was sent to Wulang?" Yan Sheng gave Yan Xun a cold look.
"Uh..." Yan Xun rubbed his nose, "Uncle, don't be angry because I'm so smart just now, can you? Isn't it all right, little cousin? Only by wrestling can you be successful!"
"It turns out that you owe a beating for being so worthless? Do you need me to help you?"
"...Tang uncle, are we still friends? I didn't see you so angry when I fell on Yanzheng last time. You are treating me differently!"
Yan Sheng's martial arts was also taught by the second uncle of the Yan family himself, so Yan Sheng and Yan Xun, who are similar in age, can be considered to have grown up together, and their relationship is much closer than others.

"We are friends?" Yan Sheng looked at Yan Xun with ridicule, "I just remember that I am your cousin."
"Little cousin, hurry up and take care of your father! Your grandmother gave him the habit!" Yan Xun went to the doctor in a hurry, and asked Yan Qiuer for help.
Yan Qiuer took the tea set from Liang Cheng when Yan Xun and Yan Sheng started bickering, and was making tea carefully at this time, when he heard Yan Xun's helpless noise, he looked up at Yan Xun with a blank expression on his face Open the mouth: "What? My cousin called me?"
It's not that he didn't hear the quarrel between the two, but it's the first time in two lifetimes that Yan Sheng was so lively. Yan Qiuer found it interesting and wanted to see more.
"You are also used by your cousin. You go to the house to expose tiles all day long, and you want me to tell the second cousin about this and discipline you?" Yan Qiuer's help made Yan Sheng feel a little proud and happy.
Isn't it just raising a beautiful son?What is he proud of!Yan Xun gritted his teeth in hatred, but had no choice but to beg Yan Sheng for mercy.If his uncle found out about his habit of attacking at night, then he really don't want these legs!
"Uncle, I was wrong! It's all my fault! Uncle, you have a lot, but don't tell uncle! He is used to being a prince and a tutor. If you know my bad habit, you will never see me again. Me!"
"I can't see the peace." Yan Sheng made a sharp stab.
Yan Xun was instantly discouraged, and sat on the ground lifeless.
His cousin is obviously reticent, but why is he the one who loses every time he argues?
"Father, drink some tea." Yan Qiuer's tea was ready, and the first cup was delivered to Yan Sheng as usual.
With the hot tea in hand, Yan Sheng felt completely at ease. He glanced at the half-dead Yan Xun, and asked mercifully, "Is it something important for you to let two noble people condescend to come to my place?"
"Yes! Of course I did! Didn't I say that I have something serious to come to you!" It was rare for Yan Sheng to take the initiative to ask a question, and Yan Xun immediately regained his energy. After answering Yan Sheng's question, he turned to look at Lin Qian and Qin Nine.
"Patriarch Yan is serious. The two of us are friends with the third wife and Mr. Wu Lang. In front of Patriarch Yan, we can be regarded as juniors, let alone a noble status. Compared with Patriarch Yan, who wins status with his hands , relying on family background, we are far behind. Today, I came to the door to ask for something, and I hope that the master of Yan family will forgive me if I am rude." After speaking, Qin Jiu bowed respectfully to Yan Sheng.
Yan Fusheng sat beside Yan Qiuer, staring blankly at the handsome Qin Jiu, pulled Yan Qiuer's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Wu Lang, that person is really Qin Jiu? How do you think... ..." Why do you think it's different from the Qin Jiu who used to drink and mess around with her?He didn't expect this person to be more decent than Lin Qian when he was upright.
Yan Qiuer just smiled and said nothing.
"This gift from the Ninth Prince cannot be tolerated by Yan." Even though he said this, Yan Sheng did not hide or dodge, and he did not show any panic.
As soon as Yan Sheng's words came out, Yan Qiu'er and Liang Cheng were not surprised, but they frightened Lin Qian and Qin Jiu.The two looked around, and found that Yan Qiuer and the others also had a look they had known for a long time, only Yan Fusheng was shocked.
Qin Jiu was startled, and then smiled in relief.
"People often say that the Patriarch of the Yan family is young and promising, and has the appearance of an emperor in the business world. When I saw you today, this junior is convinced. But can you ask Patriarch Yan to tell this junior, where did this junior show his flaws?"
"Caomin dare to ask the Ninth Prince to reflect on himself. Where does the Ninth Prince think he has shown his flaws?"
Lin Qian's eyes tightened. Knowing that Yan Sheng wanted to try Qin Jiu, he couldn't help but sweat for the dull Qin Jiu.
"Hmm..." After listening to Yan Sheng's words, Qin Jiu didn't feel unhappy, but really began to reflect on himself. After thinking for a while, he seemed to have found the answer, "Master Yan met me for the first time today, but this tone seems to be too early. As expected, I guess someone has revealed my identity to Patriarch Yan in advance, and the person who can reveal my identity to Patriarch Yan..." Qin Jiu's gaze went back and forth between Yan Qiuer and Yan Fusheng , and finally fixed on Yan Qiuer, "It must be Lord Wulang, right?"
"How do you know?" It's not too stupid.
"Fusheng is a girl. Even though she is more lively than the other daughters, her knowledge and experience is limited. But as the Lord of the Yan family, I believe that even if Lord Wulang does not go out, there are still some things that must be known. The Yan family can become a pivotal figure in the Tianlan Kingdom. Everyone, with the support of Yan Xun's lineage, it must not be difficult to know the characteristics of the royal family members, right?"
"Well, it's really not difficult." Yan Sheng admitted generously.
"It's just that I'm still unclear about one thing." Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiu'er, hoping that Yan Qiu'er could clarify his doubts.
"Ninth Prince, please tell me."
"When I go out on weekdays, I will get rid of all the objects that can symbolize my identity on my body. I even pay special attention to my clothes. How did Mr. Wulang notice my identity?"
Yan Qiuer smiled, reached out and patted her waist.
waist?Qin Jiu looked down at his waist. There was only a jade disk hanging there. There were dragon patterns carved on the jade disk. Only the two sides of the gap in the jade disk were as red as blood, and the rest of the jade disk was as white as snow.
Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiuer again, and said in astonishment: "This jade ring is a relic of my concubine, few people in the palace noticed it, how did you know?"
"Secret." Yan Qiuer smiled mysteriously.
"I see." Qin Jiu nodded as if realizing something.It seems that the Yan family's intelligence network is more detailed and rigorous than he imagined, "It seems that I will even get rid of this when I go out in the future." What the Yan family can know, there is no guarantee that others will not know.
"The Ninth Prince came to find Yan, why?" This Qin Jiu did not hold on to his identity, and treated others with humility and generosity. He was somewhat different from Yan Sheng's imagined royal family, but to Yan Sheng who was somewhat proud, this Fan Xinxing is more to his liking, so after probing, it is time to get down to business.
Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly praised Qin Jiu's luck.People don't have to be smart, as long as they are smart enough at critical moments, they are witty.As for finding a partner, in addition to tact, you also need to agree with each other. If you don't like it at the beginning, the alliance is not reliable.
Qin Jiu also breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to Lin Qian.The next explanation was Lin Qian's task.
Lin Qian looked at Liang Cheng and Tang Shuo suggestively, and then said with a smile: "This matter may not be a big deal to Patriarch Yan, but it is a move of life and death for us. I hope ..."
"It doesn't matter." In the Yan Mansion, wherever Yan Sheng is, there are almost no servants and maidservants. The maidservants were sent out, and now there were only six of them, Liang Cheng and Tang Shuo in Tengyuan Hall.
Besides, everyone in the Yan family knew that Yan Xun had brought two extraordinary people to visit today. Isn't it too late for Lin Qian to think of it now to avoid suspicion?
"If Patriarch Yan thinks it's okay, then it's okay." Lin Qian still squinted his eyes and smiled, even Yan Sheng couldn't see what he was thinking. "In the early court three days ago, His Majesty decided to arrange a secret mission to Huihe."
This sentence gave Yansheng three messages: His Majesty intends to form an alliance with Huihe;But what does this have to do with their businessmen?Need financial support?Unable to guess the answer, Yan Sheng could only wait for Lin Qian to give him an answer.
As soon as Yan Qiuer heard the word Huihe, he immediately thought of related events.
"But there is a Turk between Tianlan and Huihe. If you want to be undetected, you can only disguise the mission team as a caravan." Lin Qian continued to speak while observing Yan Sheng's face, but Yan Sheng's face Lin Qian's expression didn't move at all, and Lin Qian gave up the rhythm of speaking while probing, and simply finished what he wanted to say, "However, no matter how we disguise the soldiers we can deploy, they are not businessmen after all. It’s impossible not to trade with them later in the country, so we need real merchants to mix in.”
"Tianlan is not the only merchant of my Yan family. It is not my Yan family who is closest to the royal family and the court. This matter is of great importance. I am afraid that it is inappropriate to use my Yan family."
"Master Yan is too modest." Yan Sheng's refusal was completely within Lin Qian's expectation, and he would be a fool who would agree to such a big matter, "Master Yan is right, the Yan family is just a few majors in Tianlan Kingdom One of the merchants, although Yan Xun's lineage is working in the court, the Yan family has never used the relationship between the court and China to expand the family business. Lin admires this. But the owner of the Yan family should also know that those who are related to the royal family and the court None of the merchants with close ties with the Ninth Prince is close to the Ninth Prince. Besides, when it comes to merchants, the Yan family is definitely the number one in Tianlan Kingdom. Your family’s caravans are all over the world? Your Yan family can go where others can go, and your Yan family can go where others can’t! Is what Lin said right?”
The corner of Yan Sheng's mouth raised slightly, and instead of answering himself, he asked Yan Qiuer: "Wu Lang, do you think what he said is right?"
Is it none of his business again?Yan Qiuer curled her lips, and replied: "Brother Lin is not completely correct, but he is quite close. The Yan family has been in business for a hundred years, starting with selling agricultural products, and then it was the beginning of trading. The relationship between the two townships can now be said to have traveled all over the world. The merchants of the Yan family are only affiliated to the merchants. The experience of merchants accumulated over a hundred years has been passed down from generation to generation. If they can be compared casually by other merchants, then I will The Yan family spent the past hundred years in vain. However... if the Yan family's caravans and soldiers go together, it may be difficult. Although the purpose may be the same, the way merchants and soldiers handle things is too different. There is a difference, Brother Lin Have you ever thought about it? For such a big event, if you are not careful, the team will never return, why should my Yan family take this risk?"
"Since we come to ask for help, we will definitely not treat the Yan family badly, we..."
"Will you treat the Yan family badly?" Yan Qiuer chuckled, and blocked Lin Qian's words, "What can you give to the Yan family? Money? Power? Glory? What do you think my Yan family lacks?"
Lin Qian was speechless.Qian Yan's family naturally has no shortage, right?If the Yan family wanted to spend their own money to buy him ten or eight idle jobs, how could they not be able to enter the officialdom with Yan Xun and the crown prince and Taifu helping them in the court?glory?As a merchant of the Yan family, the greatest glory is to earn tens of thousands of gold and silver. Their titles and titles are rare in the Yan family?Even if the Yan family is rare, His Majesty may not be willing to give it!Lin Qian was distressed, so they had nothing to repay the Yan family?
Lin Qian turned his head to look at Qin Jiu, but saw that Qin Jiu was also thinking hard.
"Uncle Tang, this matter is definitely not a bad thing for the Yan family. As long as they can pass through the Turkic territory safely, the Yan family has made a great contribution. If you can get a few promises from Your Majesty and a few privileges, it will be of great benefit to the Yan family!" If it is really something harmful but not beneficial, he will not bring anyone to find Tang Uncle.
"Cousin has already stood up?"
Yan Qiuer's sudden question stunned everyone present, and then they all understood what Yan Qiuer was asking.Yan Xun scratched his head and looked at Yan Sheng with some guilt.
According to the ancestors of the Yan family, they shouldn't be involved in royal battles, but it's fine if he is a useless petty official. Now he is the Minister of the Ministry of War. This official is not big or small. At the critical moment, he couldn't allow him to fish in troubled waters. If he really became a fool, he would be pulled out sooner or later.
He has never told Yansheng of his determination because he didn't want to drag Yansheng and Yan's family into the water, but this time he really has no other choice. If they miss this opportunity, they will be killed. It's fallen a lot!
"Yes, I have chosen."
Yan Sheng pursed his lips, Yan Qiuer only chuckled, and the expressions of the others became complicated.
