Prodigal Goro-kun
Chapter 65 The First Love Letter
After listening to Lin Shangshu's words, Yan Qiuer understood completely. The two men who co-authored Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu had already figured out the matter clearly, which way to go and how to go. It must have been calculated, but these two are also important officials in the court. They are watched by thousands of eyes, and they will be noticed by people even if they move the slightest, so they leave the matter to Qin Jiu, Lin Qian and Yan Xun. The three libertines, maybe even the image of these three libertines was created by these two people.Up to now, Lin Shangshu felt that their pace was slow, so he made such a push.
Yan Qiuer shook her head and laughed, feeling tired from sitting upright, she dragged the chair behind her and leaned on it, not caring at all about the etiquette that should be observed in front of her elders.
"Hey, just as I came out of the Zuo Mansion, I was tied back to the Yan Mansion by Brother Qian on the back. How could it be such a coincidence? It was only an hour before and after, and Taifu Yan was so clear about it. How could this matter happen so quickly? What a coincidence? My Yan family is so humbled, honored, and fortunate to be able to get two important ministers to pay close attention to me, a mere merchant from the Yan family!"
It was said that Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu were quite embarrassed, but Lin Qian, Qin Jiu and Yan Xun realized that the three of them had been acting according to Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu's calculations. Yan Sheng, who had been complacently thinking that he was in charge of the whole event, immediately understood that the Yan family had been plotted against from the very beginning, so he narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at his second cousin.
"Cough! You young man disrespects the elderly! You don't follow the rules! Look at you? Sit down!" Lin Shangshu flicked his beard, trying to divert everyone's attention from himself to Yan Qiuer.
The clinker Yan Qiuer chuckled cheekily, and said, "Heh! My image has been completely ruined, so who will I show to obey the rules?" He was just a prodigal before, but now he has broken his sleeve again. His life is doomed After going on the dishonest road and never returning, why is he still pretending to be serious?He finally understood that none of Qin Jiu's supporters was serious. Wouldn't it be too out of place for him to be so serious?
Lin Shangshu's beard trembled violently, and was speechless with anger at Yan Qiuer's thick skin.
"Asheng and Qiu'er don't want to be angry. We didn't mean to plot against the Yan family. I also know the Yan family's ancestral precepts, so I didn't think about letting you break the ancestral precepts. It's just that I didn't expect Lin Langjun and Ninth Prince Meeting Sanniangzi and Wulangjun by chance, and thinking of wooing him, this is also an opportunity for the Ninth Prince. What's more, looking at the entire Tianlan Kingdom, among all the forces outside the court, the Yan family has the strongest foundation. The Yan family is also in full swing. Besides, I just asked Ah Xun to confess our position to you, and it is the head of the Yan family who makes the decision." Taifu Yan looked at Yan Sheng with a hint of flattery hidden in his smile.
Although his cousin knows the importance and generality, if he gets angry, it will be really troublesome.
Yan Sheng snorted coldly, and said, "I don't know my cousin Yan Xun's friendship? Yan Xun foolishly waded into the muddy water, how could I just sit back and ignore it?"
Taifu Yan grinned and said: "Use everything to maximize the benefits, isn't this the Yan family's business management? My surname is Yan anyway. The way is different, but the way is also similar."
The corner of Qin Jiu's mouth twitched.He thought Taifu Yan was an upright and honest person before, but it turned out that he was also hiding something.Sure enough, the Yan family is a fox den!Could it be that Fusheng is also hiding something deep?Qin Jiu tilted his head and looked suspiciously at Yan Fusheng, who looked silly.
Yan Sheng snorted coldly, not fussing over this matter.
Seeing that Yan Sheng had nothing to say, Yan Qiuer said again: "We have been busy all this time, and today I want to hear the thoughts of the two veterans."
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu have been officials in the court for many years, and their grasp of the situation in the court is much more accurate than theirs.
"What do you want to know, Mr. Lin?" Lin Shangshu stroked his beard and looked at Yan Qiuer. The more he looked, the more he felt that he was really God Blessing the Ninth Prince.
Lin Shangshu is quite old, and he is in the imperial court. He has seen countless people. He has seen many bright young people like Yan Qiuer who are only fifteen or sixteen years old. Before that, Lin Shangshu also felt that he had seen Many young people are considered smart, but compared with Yan Qiuer in front of him now, those people's smarts can only be regarded as small smarts.Look at Yan Qiu'er's eyes, there is aura in them, hearing his words and looking at his expressions during this conversation, he feels that his thoughts are meticulous and penetrating.If the Duanxiu, my own grandson, can't be healed, it would be a good pairing with this young gentleman.
Thinking of his grandson's headache, Lin Shangshu couldn't help turning his head and glaring at Lin Qian, which made Lin Qian's heart skip a beat, thinking that he had been found out that he secretly hid the abacus.
Yan Qiuer glanced at Yan Sheng, saw Yan Sheng nodded, and said, "Now there are three princes in the royal family: the crown prince, the king of Huai'an, and the nine princes. Why did Lin Shangshu and Taifu Yan choose the nine princes? Although the prince has lost his virtue , but if you can clean up the villains around him, you won’t be powerless. The King of Huai’an is powerful and more competitive than the Ninth Prince, why did you two choose the Ninth Prince?”
Lin Shangshu's beard shook, and he snorted coldly and said, "He doesn't even have the ability to distinguish between loyal and traitorous. What qualifications does he have to inherit the throne? Before he ascended the throne, we have to clean up the evil and sycophants for him. If he is the emperor, then he will pay it back." Is it? Is the world still alive? The king of Huai'an is even worse!"
"Why?" Not only Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer were puzzled, but even Lin Qian and Yan Xun looked at the angry Lin Shangshu curiously.
Qin Jiu lowered his head, his expression unclear.
Taifu Yan sighed, and said with a lot of emotion: "The king of Huai'an is not the son of a saint."
"I see." Yan Qiuer nodded, and the short four words were ready to end the topic about King Huai'an.
Yan Qiuer planned to end it, but Lin Shangshu didn't want the topic to end, and asked Yan Qiuer curiously: "Don't you want to ask more about King Huai'an?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Lin Shangshu, wondering, "Why are you asking? Is it information that can be used? If not, what do I have to do with the secrets of the royal family?"
"It can be used as a threat." So hurry up and ask!Lin Shangshu looked at Yan Qiuer expectantly, as soon as Yan Qiuer asked, he would immediately tell him what happened back then.
"Threat?" Yan Qiuer sneered, "Shangshu Lin, are you sure he won't force a dog to jump over the wall?"
Lin Shangshu was choked, his beard trembled, and he secretly thought that this young gentleman is not cute at all.
"How sure are the two of you about this matter?" This last question was asked by Yan Sheng.
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu looked at each other, and Yan Taifu cautiously replied: "Seventy percent."
"Only [-]%?" Yan Qiuer raised an eyebrow.
Lin Shangshu shook his beard and said angrily: "The sage is reluctant to favor the prince. Then the King of Huai'an did not know what tricks he used. The area around Huai'an is simply covered by the King of Huai'an. No news can be found, and what comes out is all The news that King Huai'an wants the saint to know is all false!"
Taifu Yan added: "Furthermore, King Huai'an has planned for many years, and now even Lin Shangshu and I can't find out how far his power has penetrated."
Yan Qiuer curled her lips: "Then Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu can increase this confidence by two percent."
"What do you mean?" Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu looked at each other, puzzled.
"Today, I went to Zuo's mansion and chatted with Zuo Ning. My love... have you read the Zuo family's intelligence Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu written in that letter?"
Yan Taifu shook his head, while Lin Shangshu shook his beard and said "I didn't look carefully".
"Then please take a look now."
Hearing this, Yan Sheng handed the "love letter" to Grand Tutor Yan.
Taifu Yan read it quickly, and after careful consideration, he deciphered the information in the love poem, and said in surprise: "The Zuo family is from Huai'an? No one knows such news?"
"No one around the prince knows?" Yan Sheng frowned.Even if he doesn't know the details of the people around him, isn't the life of the prince too comfortable?
"No." Qin Jiu shook his head, "Everyone around the prince thinks that the Zuo family is from Chang'an."
"But I don't think the prince is stupid. It shouldn't be because he doesn't even check the identities of the people around him." Lin Qian moved his body and adjusted a comfortable posture. He had already pushed the two calculations to the back. I don't know where to go.
"Have you checked it out?" Yan Xun curled his lips, he really didn't think highly of the prince's wisdom.
"But if the Zuo family is from Huai'an, why don't they go directly to the King of Huai'an? Why did they go all the way to Chang'an to join the prince? If the King of Huai'an knew about it, how could he allow them to leave Huai'an?" Yan Fusheng said casually while holding a teacup said a word.
As soon as Yan Fusheng finished speaking, everyone except Yan Qiu'er and Yan Sheng was startled.
"Uh... I'll just talk about it." Yan Fusheng didn't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from others, so he quickly lowered his head and drank tea vigorously.
Yan Qiuer smiled slightly.Fu Sheng is not stupid.
Lin Shangshu read the letter carefully three times before asking: "Xiao Langjun said in the letter that the Zuo family had changed their name and surname. Does Xiao Lang know what the Zuo family's previous surname was?"
"week."
"Zhou..." Lin Shangshu lowered his eyes to think for a while, and then was shocked, "There is a General Zhou in their family?"
Yan Qiuer nodded.
"It's actually that Zhou family..." Lin Shangshu mentioned General Zhou, and seeing Yan Qiuer nod, Taifu Yan also knew which family it was.
Which Zhou family?Qin Jiu, Lin Qian and Yan Xun had no impression of the Zhou family at all.
"Shangshu Lin and Taifu Yan must be aware of the details, so the Zuo family is actually here for revenge, and the one supporting the Zuo family behind the scenes is naturally the King of Huai'an. It's just that I guessed the King of Huai'an and the Zuo family from Zuo Ning's words. It's just a cooperative relationship with the same interests, there is no trust between the two, and I was thinking of getting to know the situation of King Huai'an through Zuo Ning. What I'm calculating now is another matter." Saying that, Yan Qiuer Look at Qin Jiu.
"Wh, what's the matter?" Yan Qiuer's smile was so bright, but Qin Jiu always felt that there was some malicious intention hidden in that smile.
"Does Ninth Brother have any familiar generals?"
When Yan Qiuer asked this question, the hearts of the officials tensed up, each of them guessed what Yan Qiuer meant by asking this question, they couldn't be asking them to rebel, right?
And Yan Sheng glanced at Yan Qiuer, stretched out his hand and rubbed Yan Qiuer's head, and said with a smile: "What bad idea are you planning?" It's not Qiu'er's personality to rebel, this brat likes to make things difficult for others .
"How could it be a bad idea?" Yan Qiuer glanced sideways at Yansheng, grabbed the big hand covering his head and threw it back, "The sage wants to build new weapons for the Tianlan Kingdom's army, and he will leave this matter to the crown prince. Responsible, Zuo Ning wants to send these weapons to the King of Huai'an after they are finished, so that he can blame the prince to get him off the horse. Originally, we couldn't intervene in this matter, but Zuo Ning wanted to cooperate with the Yan family. Borrowing the Yan family's caravan to help him steal and exchange, I thought that these weapons would be escorted by the Yan family anyway, so why not escort them to my own people? As for King Huai'an, just follow Zuo Ning's example of stealing and exchanging equipment?"
"Wonderful! This method is very wonderful!" Lin Shangshu was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and laughed, "With the help of the Yan family, this will surely happen."
Is this going to happen?Yan Qiuer raised the corners of her mouth and smiled slyly, how could these two old foxes be so happy.
So Yan Qiuer suddenly sighed and said: "But, I have calculated carefully, my Yan family has asked Mr. Silang to lead a caravan to the north to return to Ho, and I don't know when I will return. Maybe it will be after this new weapon is made. At that time, the fourth brother was still far away in a foreign land, and if someone leads one or two caravans south to Huai'an, it seems that it will affect the normal business of the Yan family."
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu were stunned.What does Yan Qiuer mean by this?Affect the normal business of the Yan family?Which is more important, national affairs or the Yan family's business?
Glancing at the expressions of Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu, Yan Sheng said in a deep voice: "That's true. Although I am afraid that something will happen to Yan Xun, as the head of the Yan family, I will not destroy the Yan family because of personal interests. I can't do the thing that Madam broke up again."
For ordinary people like them, national affairs are nothing more than a year or so of turmoil. After the turmoil, those who survived the turmoil had to cultivate the land, and they had to do business if they should do business. Did the sky change? For them, the difference is not big, especially for their businessmen, no matter how bad they are, they can still move their families and take refuge elsewhere.
"That's what I said. Now that the Yan family's reputation has been ruined because of me, if another family fortune is lost, how will my father and son face the ancestors of the Yan family!" Yan Qiu'er said emotionally Bingmao also put on a sad expression of "children and grandchildren are not filial", Yan Fusheng rolled his eyes when he saw it, and thought Yan Qiuer was so good at acting, why didn't he become an actress!
Lin Shangshu shook his beard and stared at Taifu Yan.What's the matter with these two of your family?It was well said before, why did it suddenly happen?The acting was so real that he almost believed that the Yan family was going to be ruined soon!
Taifu Yan stared back at Lin Shangshu.This stinky old man is still staring at him?Who can blame this?If it wasn't for this smelly old man who somehow thought of plotting against his little nephew today, wouldn't the father and son have nothing to do together and sing along?His cousin has been in business for many years and has never suffered a loss. How could he suffer from this stinky old man?
So what to do?Lin Shangshu was stunned. He had been an official for many years, and he had never encountered such a situation.
Lin Qian knelt behind Lin Shangshu and smiled secretly.The smelly old man is at a disadvantage, isn't he?Then let him pretend to be upright all day long, but pretend to be bad, and calculate others everywhere, will he meet someone who can calculate more than him?Was it calculated?snort!
With a "slap", Lin Qian was slapped again by Lin Shangshu before he could get enough of himself.
Little brat, what are you snickering behind?Turn your elbows out!
Lin Qian rubbed his painful head, and kept slandering his grandfather.
Qin Jiu was more straightforward. Seeing Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer's intentions, he asked straightforwardly, "What reward does Patriarch Yan want?"
Hearing this, Yan Sheng turned his head to look at Yan Qiuer, and asked Yan Qiuer if there was anything he wanted. Seeing Yan Qiuer shrugging at him, Yan Sheng pondered for a while before answering Qin Jiu. Said: "I want a customs clearance document that can enter and exit various checkpoints in Tianlan Kingdom within three years."
For merchants, handling customs clearance documents is always the most troublesome thing. Sometimes it takes a few taels of gold to get a customs clearance document, which is not worth the candle, but it still has to be done.
"Two copies." Upon hearing Yan Sheng's request, Yan Qiuer's eyes lit up, and he immediately added another sentence.
Yan Sheng pursed his lips and cast a sidelong glance at Yan Qiuer.Return two copies?The other is for himself?Where is he going?
Yan Qiuer's scalp was numb from Yan Sheng's sight, he smiled and said, "In case of emergencies, in case of emergencies, hehe."
Yan Sheng remained silent.It is also good to have an extra copy in case of emergencies. For businessmen, there are not too many customs clearance documents.
Upon hearing this request, Qin Jiu shut his mouth and silently looked at Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu.Although he has begun to woo officials, he is still a prince in name only, and it is still difficult for him to ask for customs clearance certificates from various places.
His cousin really can't afford it!Taifu Yan smiled helplessly, and then said, "Ah Sheng, can I have a few fewer copies? There is no legitimate title, and this customs clearance document is not easy to handle."
"The business name of the Yan family is not justifiable?" Yan Sheng glanced at Mrs. Yan and said calmly.
Taifu Yan came to be soft, but Lin Shangshu wanted to use hard ones, so he snorted coldly, stared at Yan Sheng to frighten him, and said, "If you don't do the pie in the sky, the Yan family will not do it, so I should find another family to do it." ! As for the Yan family... Hmph! The fight between the people and the government has never ended well!"
Yan Taifu and Yan Xun helped the forehead.
Yan Qiuer narrowed his eyes, and immediately answered Lin Shangshu's words: "Oh! It's scary! But if Lin Shangshu can find a better caravan than the Yan family, then go for it. The Yan family will definitely not hinder Lin Shangshu. About Shangshu. As for the fate of the Yan family...it is naturally a matter of Lin Shangshu's words, but Lin Shangshu can think about it well. One of the pillars will be vacant, and now I don’t know what forces the King of Huai’an has colluded with, Lin Shangshu, if the Yan family is gone, will the King of Huai’an take advantage of it?”
It's rare for this little man not to speak, why is he so annoying when he speaks!Lin Shangshu stared at Yan Qiuer with staring eyes, his beard raised in anger.
Lin Qian looked at Lin Shangshu with a smile, and said, "Grandfather, don't rely on your elders to bully others here. You don't know anything about the business world, so can't you listen honestly? Look at your beard is shaking. It has to be lost, and if we go on, it is not something that can be solved by two sets of customs clearance documents."
"Which side are you on, you little bastard!" Lin Shangshu glared at Lin Qian angrily.
Lin Qian chuckled, stretched out his hand to stroke Lin Shangshu's beard, and said, "Grandfather has been trained to help managers and not relatives."
Lin Shangshu grabbed Lin Qian's face and pushed Lin Qian back: "Kneel down!"
"Still kneeling?" It's true that the grandfather loves him, but he also loves to torment him the most. If he dares not to obey, he will only be punished worse.At such an advanced age, chasing him all day is not tiring.Seeing that Lin Shangshu didn't intend to take back his fate, Lin Qian pouted, then stepped back and knelt down.
"Brother Lin, your method really doesn't work in the Yan Mansion." Taifu Yan also looked at Lin Shangshu gloatingly.
"Then you didn't say it earlier!" Lin Shangshu stared.Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu have been close friends for many years, and usually cooperate with each other softly and hard in the court, but today Yan Taifu didn't warn in advance, but cheated Lin Shangshu once.
Taifu Yan smiled awkwardly, and said: "I also want to know whether it works or not." Taifu Yan has never seen anyone afraid of this cousin in half his life, he is curious!
Lin Shangshu shook his beard vigorously, snorted coldly, and went to sulk without speaking.These people are bullying him today!He is quite familiar with him, but today no one reminded him that the father and son of the Yan family can't count if they are soft or hard, and he is not nice to others!
Taifu Yan rubbed his nose, turned to Yan Sheng, and said with a smile: "Then A Sheng, cousin, I will get you two sets of customs clearance certificates that are valid for three years. You father and son should think of a way to deal with the new weapons." ?”
"Five years." Just when Taifu Yan thought that this matter could be negotiated, Yan Qiuer suddenly asked for another two years.
Taifu Yan's smile froze on his face.
Yan Xun stopped watching the excitement, and said to Yan Qiuer: "Little cousin, the customs clearance certificate is not such an easy thing to get, we can't get the sage's hand letter, the checkpoint from Chang'an City to Sifang Border Pass There are so many, it’s not that we don’t do it, this... this is really difficult to handle.”
Yan Qiuer looked up at Yan Xun, and said, "If it's easy, Dad will do it himself. And... don't we have a prince and a tutor?" Yan Qiuer specially emphasized the word "prince".
Taifu Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "I have been an official for more than [-] years, but I am not as quick-witted as a young gentleman, ashamed! Good! I will get you the five-year customs clearance document, but As for the new weapons, my cousin and Qiuer will do it!"
Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer looked at each other with a smile in their eyes.
When seeing off the guests, Qin Jiu called Yan Qiuer to his side.
"Brother Jiu, what's the matter?" Yan Qiuer walked quickly from Yan Sheng's side to Qin Jiu's side, and walked out side by side with Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiuer with a serious expression, and said, "I was young when the King of Huai'an left Chang'an City for Huai'an, so I didn't have any impression of him, but he has been dormant in Huai'an for so many years, and I know it just because of his forbearance." It's not easy to deal with, if he really has been preparing for the throne for so many years but hasn't leaked the news, this person's intelligence and strategy must be superior to others, and it is not known how many advisers he has around him, if you can find out from Zuo Ning Inquire about any news, don't take the risk if it is really difficult, there is always a way."
Yan Qiuer thought that Qin Jiu was going to whisper something to him, but she didn't expect Qin Jiu to entrust him with such seriousness. Yan Qiuer's heart warmed up, and she said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Jiu, I'm just a businessman, I only know how to When doing business with people, I will not do things that harm others and benefit myself.”
"That's good." Qin Jiu nodded, "This should be my own business, but now it will cost your lives. Sometimes I will doubt whether my choice is right or wrong."
Yan Qiuer laughed, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect the careless and careless Brother Ninth to think about these things. I don't know what is right and what is wrong, but I guess if we succeed, we will be wrong." It is also true, if we fail, right is wrong. Don't say it is for the common people in the world, it is just for friendship and benefit. Brother Qian is for friendship, and I am for profit. Yan Taifu and Lin Shangshu also have their own interests. , Brother Jiu, don't think too much, relax and do what you want. Besides, we all follow Brother Jiu. If the leader of the dragons doesn't show some tolerance, what should we do? "
Qin Jiu remained silent for a while, and then said again: "Qiuer, can I take Fusheng out for a chat?"
Hearing this, Yan Qiuer chuckled lightly: "Fusheng is the most unruly, if you want to go out with her, just tell her yourself, it's useless if you ask me, it's up to others whether she wants to go out or not?"
Qin Jiu also laughed after hearing this.Indeed, if Yan Fusheng could be restrained, there would be no such person as Yan San in Chang'an City.
"Brother Nine is done chatting, you have to bring him back safely."
"Naturally." Qin Jiuchong cupped his hands at Yan Qiuer, then ran to Yan Fusheng, discussing secretly with Yan Fusheng where to go for a while.
Lin Qian, who was not far away, also wanted to intervene, but Lin Shangshu was controlling him by his side, so he had no choice but to give up.
After sending away the noisy group of people, the Yan Mansion immediately became quiet, and even the rustling of the wind blowing leaves could be heard clearly.
Yan Qiuer took a deep breath, turned around and entered the door, and when he looked up, he saw Yan Sheng standing with his hands behind his back in front of the hanging flower door, watching him from across a small courtyard, his eyes were calm and focused.
Yan Qiuer stood blankly at the door, caught in Yan Sheng's seemingly eternal and unchanging focused gaze, unable to escape.
Yan Sheng was waiting for Yan Qiuer to come over, but saw Yan Qiuer stopped at the door, Yan Sheng was startled, thinking that something happened to Yan Qiuer, he strode towards Yan Qiuer.
"Qiul, what's the matter?"
When Yan Sheng moved, Yan Qiuer came back to his senses, blinked at Yan Sheng's worried face, and smiled.
Why are you laughing again?Yan Sheng had already walked in front of Yan Qiuer, looking at Yan Qiuer with a bright smile in confusion, but felt that Yan Qiuer's smile was a bit prettier than usual.
"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Yan Sheng, smiling unabated: "Yan Sheng, I seem to like you quite a bit."
Hearing that Yan Sheng didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he just poked Yan Qiu'er on the forehead and said, "It seems redundant."
Yan Qiuer wrinkled her nose, didn't say anything to refute, just smiled and took Yan Sheng's hand, and walked into the depths of Yan's mansion together.
Yan Sheng didn't say anything, instead he held Yan Qiu'er's hand and walked slowly.
Seeing this, Liang Cheng tactfully dragged Tang Shuo away, entrusting Tang Shuo to stay in the dark obediently, and then went back to Shi'an Garden ahead of Yan Sheng and Yan Qiu'er.He had to tell other people what he just discussed with Lin Shangshu and others, maybe they don't need their help, but it's all the Yan family's business, each of them has to know it well.
As February falls, Wangchun on Dongyuan Avenue is almost in full bloom, and the elegant fragrance drifts with the wind, blurring the depression of winter, making Yan Mansion, which has been dull all winter, a bit more lively, and it doesn't look so bad It's close to human.
In the more than ten years since the mansion was established, it was the first time for Yan Sheng to walk so slowly in the Yan mansion, and it was also the first time to carefully watch the Dongyuan Avenue in spring. He even felt that this was the first time he knew what his Yan mansion looked like , and being able to see this scene is all because of having Yan Qiuer by his side, this child always allows him to see different scenes.
Thinking of this, Yan Sheng held Yan Qiuer's hand even harder.
Feeling the force exerted on his hand, Yan Qiuer turned his head to look at Yansheng, and happened to meet Yansheng's eyes, Yan Qiuer unconsciously raised a smile.With Yan Qiuer's smile, Yan Sheng's eyes unconsciously burst into a smile, as if he was responding to Yan Qiuer's smile, and this smile softened Yan Sheng's usual seriousness. His face made the already handsome Yan Sheng look even more heart-pounding.
Yan Qiuer curled his lips in dissatisfaction suddenly, and kicked Yan Sheng's calf as soon as he lifted his foot.
Yan Sheng was taken aback for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, he frowned and looked at Yan Qiuer suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"Don't laugh anymore, especially don't laugh outside."
"Why?" Yan Sheng was confused.Others make him smile often, why doesn't Qiuer let him laugh anymore?
Yan Qiuer pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "You smile so ugly, it's embarrassing."
Yan Sheng was at a loss for words, it was the first time he heard the evaluation of "ugly" from others.
"Dislike?" Yan Sheng stared at Yan Qiuer and asked.
Yan Qiuer turned his head to look at Yan Sheng's face again, sighed helplessly and said, "I'm used to it."
Yan Sheng was silent, he really didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, in the end Yan Sheng just rubbed Yan Qiuer's little head hard, shook his head and laughed.
Yan Qiuer bared her teeth from being rubbed, and took a lot of effort to free her head. After a short silence, she spoke to Yan Sheng again: "Yan Sheng, do you still remember what the third brother said?"
"Sanlang? Which sentence?"
"Third brother said that if you want to go to the troubled waters of the royal family, the best way is to split one, so as to cut off the tail in the end to save your life."
"You want to be this abandoned son?" Yan Qiuer said this at this moment, and Yan Sheng could only think of this explanation.
Sure enough, as soon as Yan Sheng finished speaking, Yan Qiuer nodded: "Even if you don't mention the efforts made by the ancestors of the Yan family for the Yan family's century-old family business, just say that the current Yan family is also your painstaking effort, not to mention that I am not The Yan family, isn't it just right to split up at this time... Eh? Hey! Yan Sheng, what are you doing?"
Before Yan Qiu'er finished speaking, Yan Sheng's big hand pressed and rubbed his head again.
"How can you fit so many things in your little head?" Yan Sheng said while rubbing, watching Yan Qiuer struggling left and right felt interesting, so he rubbed even more vigorously.
Yan Qiuer was angry: "Yansheng, I'm telling you something serious!"
Yan Sheng stopped, raised Yan Qiu'er's face and looked at Yan Qiu'er, said seriously: "I'll tell you something serious, this is the Yan family's business, if you have to get rid of it, it should have nothing to do with you."
"How could your matter have nothing to do with me?" Yan Qiuer frowned, staring at Yan Sheng coldly.So far, what has nothing to do with him?If he could leave Yan Sheng behind, then he would have run away when he bought Huayue Pavilion.
"Then how can you let me stand by and watch what you are going to do? Do you really think it's clear?"
Yan Qiuer was at a loss for words, and he felt a little guilty when he spoke again: "I am also thinking of the Yan family."
Yan Sheng gouged out Yan Qiuer's eyes, let go of Yan Qiuer's head, and while Yan Qiuer was not paying attention, he flicked his finger on Yan Qiuer's forehead, and said in a deep voice: "There are too many people who are thinking about the Yan family. I’m going, I’m not missing you, if you have that spare time, why not think about how to write a love letter to me.”
"Really want to write it?" Thinking of the love letter, Yan Qiuer felt a little headache.Although it is not unwilling, it is really difficult to write a love letter every day.
"Don't want to write?" Yan Sheng scowled, squinting at Yan Qiuer.
"It's not that I don't want to." Yan Qiuer hurriedly explained, "It's just... er... my son is ignorant, he can memorize a few books of business economics, but he's ashamed to meet people. Besides, I'm here, you What love letters are you still reading?"
"Yeah, that's right." Yan Sheng nodded, and after seeing Yan Qiuer secretly relieved, he added, "Since you're here, read it to me after you finish writing."
Yan Qiuer was stunned, and stood there dumbstruck watching Yan Sheng go further and further away. It took him a long time to come to his senses, and he hurriedly caught up with Yan Sheng to beg for mercy. Couldn't save the situation.
In Shi'an Garden, Yan Sheng was already sitting in his study discussing with Yuan Xu about the Chamber of Commerce, while Yan Qiuer was sitting not far away, looking at Yan Sheng with a sad face.
Liang Cheng looked left and right, he didn't understand how these two people were fine when they were at the gate, why they behaved like this when they returned to Shi'an Garden, what happened along the way?
Liang Cheng leaned over to Yan Qiuer curiously and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Wulang?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Liang Cheng, and suddenly asked a question that made Liang Cheng's heart shudder: "Guard Liang, how do you write this love letter?"
love letter?What love letter?Did the lord ask Mr. Wulang to write a love letter?How did the lord think of this?This doesn't look like a master's style at all!
The corner of Liang Cheng's mouth twitched, and he replied hesitantly: "This... the subordinates can write the account book, but the love letter is a bit..."
Yan Qiuer sighed, and continued to look at Yansheng sadly, hoping that Yansheng's face could give him some inspiration, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of anything, so Yan Qiuer simply pulled a piece of paper, He wrote four big characters with a brush, and asked Liang Cheng to hand it over to Yan Sheng.
Liang Cheng took the paper with only four characters written on it, held back his smile, walked to Yan Sheng who was five steps away, and handed the four-character love letter to Yan Sheng.
Yan Sheng did not expect that Yan Qiu'er could really write, and he could write so fast. Yan Sheng took the love letter from Liang Cheng, opened it, and saw that there were only four words on it: I like you.The four characters are written in a flying and dancing manner, and one can tell at a glance that the person who wrote them is not in a good mood.
Yuan Xu looked curiously, and after seeing the four words, he subconsciously looked at Liang Cheng. Seeing Liang Cheng nodding, Yuan Xu shrank back and sat down.Fortunately, Liang Cheng revealed something to them in advance, otherwise he might have said something stupid in such a situation.
Yan Sheng thought for a while, spread the paper out in front of him, picked up a pen and wrote a few words, and handed it to Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng took five steps back and returned the love letter to Yan Qiuer.
Yan Qiuer unfolded the paper suspiciously, and saw that there was a column of small characters next to the four words he wrote: The feelings are not sincere, rewrite.
Yan Qiuer stared.Why do you still have to rewrite this?Looking up at Yan Sheng, he saw that Yan Sheng was discussing matters with Yuan Xu, his side face was tense, as if he was not very happy.
Yan Qiuer scratched her head, changed a piece of paper, wrote three words on it, and handed it to Liang Cheng again.
Liang Cheng took the second love letter and walked up to Yan Sheng happily, looking forward to Yan Sheng's second comment.
Yan Qiuer also held the pen holder in his mouth, looking at Yansheng nervously.
I saw Yan Sheng unfolding the love letter solemnly, carefully reading the three words "I love you" over and over again several times, then drew a few strokes, folded the love letter neatly, and handed it to Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng coughed lightly, holding back the smile that was about to burst out, and returned the second love letter to Yan Qiuer.
Yan Qiuer couldn't wait to unfold the love letter, and saw that Yan Sheng drew a big circle on the word "love", and then wrote two small characters next to it: "Where is love?"
Yan Qiuer was stunned.Why didn't he know when Yan Sheng became so hypocritical?Yan Qiuer raised his head and stared at Yan Sheng's serious side face. After staring for a while, he suddenly noticed that the corners of Yan Sheng's mouth were raised higher and higher, while Yuan Xu, who was opposite Yan Sheng, was already bowing his back with his mouth covered in discomfort. Looking at Liang Cheng who was standing next to him, he could only see that Liang Cheng's face was contorted from a suppressed smile.
Yan Qiuer's face turned red instantly, she slapped the pen and paper on the table in anger, turned around and left.
"Mr. Wulang, where are you going?" Liang Cheng was startled, and hurriedly asked.
"Find love!"
The three people in the study couldn't hold back their belly laughs.
"My lord, don't you want to go and see Mr. Wulang?" It's hard to guard against such a silent trickster like Mr. Wulang.
"Go, go at night." By the way at night, discuss with Qiuer about the issue of sincere feelings.
Yan Qiuer shook her head and laughed, feeling tired from sitting upright, she dragged the chair behind her and leaned on it, not caring at all about the etiquette that should be observed in front of her elders.
"Hey, just as I came out of the Zuo Mansion, I was tied back to the Yan Mansion by Brother Qian on the back. How could it be such a coincidence? It was only an hour before and after, and Taifu Yan was so clear about it. How could this matter happen so quickly? What a coincidence? My Yan family is so humbled, honored, and fortunate to be able to get two important ministers to pay close attention to me, a mere merchant from the Yan family!"
It was said that Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu were quite embarrassed, but Lin Qian, Qin Jiu and Yan Xun realized that the three of them had been acting according to Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu's calculations. Yan Sheng, who had been complacently thinking that he was in charge of the whole event, immediately understood that the Yan family had been plotted against from the very beginning, so he narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at his second cousin.
"Cough! You young man disrespects the elderly! You don't follow the rules! Look at you? Sit down!" Lin Shangshu flicked his beard, trying to divert everyone's attention from himself to Yan Qiuer.
The clinker Yan Qiuer chuckled cheekily, and said, "Heh! My image has been completely ruined, so who will I show to obey the rules?" He was just a prodigal before, but now he has broken his sleeve again. His life is doomed After going on the dishonest road and never returning, why is he still pretending to be serious?He finally understood that none of Qin Jiu's supporters was serious. Wouldn't it be too out of place for him to be so serious?
Lin Shangshu's beard trembled violently, and was speechless with anger at Yan Qiuer's thick skin.
"Asheng and Qiu'er don't want to be angry. We didn't mean to plot against the Yan family. I also know the Yan family's ancestral precepts, so I didn't think about letting you break the ancestral precepts. It's just that I didn't expect Lin Langjun and Ninth Prince Meeting Sanniangzi and Wulangjun by chance, and thinking of wooing him, this is also an opportunity for the Ninth Prince. What's more, looking at the entire Tianlan Kingdom, among all the forces outside the court, the Yan family has the strongest foundation. The Yan family is also in full swing. Besides, I just asked Ah Xun to confess our position to you, and it is the head of the Yan family who makes the decision." Taifu Yan looked at Yan Sheng with a hint of flattery hidden in his smile.
Although his cousin knows the importance and generality, if he gets angry, it will be really troublesome.
Yan Sheng snorted coldly, and said, "I don't know my cousin Yan Xun's friendship? Yan Xun foolishly waded into the muddy water, how could I just sit back and ignore it?"
Taifu Yan grinned and said: "Use everything to maximize the benefits, isn't this the Yan family's business management? My surname is Yan anyway. The way is different, but the way is also similar."
The corner of Qin Jiu's mouth twitched.He thought Taifu Yan was an upright and honest person before, but it turned out that he was also hiding something.Sure enough, the Yan family is a fox den!Could it be that Fusheng is also hiding something deep?Qin Jiu tilted his head and looked suspiciously at Yan Fusheng, who looked silly.
Yan Sheng snorted coldly, not fussing over this matter.
Seeing that Yan Sheng had nothing to say, Yan Qiuer said again: "We have been busy all this time, and today I want to hear the thoughts of the two veterans."
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu have been officials in the court for many years, and their grasp of the situation in the court is much more accurate than theirs.
"What do you want to know, Mr. Lin?" Lin Shangshu stroked his beard and looked at Yan Qiuer. The more he looked, the more he felt that he was really God Blessing the Ninth Prince.
Lin Shangshu is quite old, and he is in the imperial court. He has seen countless people. He has seen many bright young people like Yan Qiuer who are only fifteen or sixteen years old. Before that, Lin Shangshu also felt that he had seen Many young people are considered smart, but compared with Yan Qiuer in front of him now, those people's smarts can only be regarded as small smarts.Look at Yan Qiu'er's eyes, there is aura in them, hearing his words and looking at his expressions during this conversation, he feels that his thoughts are meticulous and penetrating.If the Duanxiu, my own grandson, can't be healed, it would be a good pairing with this young gentleman.
Thinking of his grandson's headache, Lin Shangshu couldn't help turning his head and glaring at Lin Qian, which made Lin Qian's heart skip a beat, thinking that he had been found out that he secretly hid the abacus.
Yan Qiuer glanced at Yan Sheng, saw Yan Sheng nodded, and said, "Now there are three princes in the royal family: the crown prince, the king of Huai'an, and the nine princes. Why did Lin Shangshu and Taifu Yan choose the nine princes? Although the prince has lost his virtue , but if you can clean up the villains around him, you won’t be powerless. The King of Huai’an is powerful and more competitive than the Ninth Prince, why did you two choose the Ninth Prince?”
Lin Shangshu's beard shook, and he snorted coldly and said, "He doesn't even have the ability to distinguish between loyal and traitorous. What qualifications does he have to inherit the throne? Before he ascended the throne, we have to clean up the evil and sycophants for him. If he is the emperor, then he will pay it back." Is it? Is the world still alive? The king of Huai'an is even worse!"
"Why?" Not only Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer were puzzled, but even Lin Qian and Yan Xun looked at the angry Lin Shangshu curiously.
Qin Jiu lowered his head, his expression unclear.
Taifu Yan sighed, and said with a lot of emotion: "The king of Huai'an is not the son of a saint."
"I see." Yan Qiuer nodded, and the short four words were ready to end the topic about King Huai'an.
Yan Qiuer planned to end it, but Lin Shangshu didn't want the topic to end, and asked Yan Qiuer curiously: "Don't you want to ask more about King Huai'an?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Lin Shangshu, wondering, "Why are you asking? Is it information that can be used? If not, what do I have to do with the secrets of the royal family?"
"It can be used as a threat." So hurry up and ask!Lin Shangshu looked at Yan Qiuer expectantly, as soon as Yan Qiuer asked, he would immediately tell him what happened back then.
"Threat?" Yan Qiuer sneered, "Shangshu Lin, are you sure he won't force a dog to jump over the wall?"
Lin Shangshu was choked, his beard trembled, and he secretly thought that this young gentleman is not cute at all.
"How sure are the two of you about this matter?" This last question was asked by Yan Sheng.
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu looked at each other, and Yan Taifu cautiously replied: "Seventy percent."
"Only [-]%?" Yan Qiuer raised an eyebrow.
Lin Shangshu shook his beard and said angrily: "The sage is reluctant to favor the prince. Then the King of Huai'an did not know what tricks he used. The area around Huai'an is simply covered by the King of Huai'an. No news can be found, and what comes out is all The news that King Huai'an wants the saint to know is all false!"
Taifu Yan added: "Furthermore, King Huai'an has planned for many years, and now even Lin Shangshu and I can't find out how far his power has penetrated."
Yan Qiuer curled her lips: "Then Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu can increase this confidence by two percent."
"What do you mean?" Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu looked at each other, puzzled.
"Today, I went to Zuo's mansion and chatted with Zuo Ning. My love... have you read the Zuo family's intelligence Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu written in that letter?"
Yan Taifu shook his head, while Lin Shangshu shook his beard and said "I didn't look carefully".
"Then please take a look now."
Hearing this, Yan Sheng handed the "love letter" to Grand Tutor Yan.
Taifu Yan read it quickly, and after careful consideration, he deciphered the information in the love poem, and said in surprise: "The Zuo family is from Huai'an? No one knows such news?"
"No one around the prince knows?" Yan Sheng frowned.Even if he doesn't know the details of the people around him, isn't the life of the prince too comfortable?
"No." Qin Jiu shook his head, "Everyone around the prince thinks that the Zuo family is from Chang'an."
"But I don't think the prince is stupid. It shouldn't be because he doesn't even check the identities of the people around him." Lin Qian moved his body and adjusted a comfortable posture. He had already pushed the two calculations to the back. I don't know where to go.
"Have you checked it out?" Yan Xun curled his lips, he really didn't think highly of the prince's wisdom.
"But if the Zuo family is from Huai'an, why don't they go directly to the King of Huai'an? Why did they go all the way to Chang'an to join the prince? If the King of Huai'an knew about it, how could he allow them to leave Huai'an?" Yan Fusheng said casually while holding a teacup said a word.
As soon as Yan Fusheng finished speaking, everyone except Yan Qiu'er and Yan Sheng was startled.
"Uh... I'll just talk about it." Yan Fusheng didn't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from others, so he quickly lowered his head and drank tea vigorously.
Yan Qiuer smiled slightly.Fu Sheng is not stupid.
Lin Shangshu read the letter carefully three times before asking: "Xiao Langjun said in the letter that the Zuo family had changed their name and surname. Does Xiao Lang know what the Zuo family's previous surname was?"
"week."
"Zhou..." Lin Shangshu lowered his eyes to think for a while, and then was shocked, "There is a General Zhou in their family?"
Yan Qiuer nodded.
"It's actually that Zhou family..." Lin Shangshu mentioned General Zhou, and seeing Yan Qiuer nod, Taifu Yan also knew which family it was.
Which Zhou family?Qin Jiu, Lin Qian and Yan Xun had no impression of the Zhou family at all.
"Shangshu Lin and Taifu Yan must be aware of the details, so the Zuo family is actually here for revenge, and the one supporting the Zuo family behind the scenes is naturally the King of Huai'an. It's just that I guessed the King of Huai'an and the Zuo family from Zuo Ning's words. It's just a cooperative relationship with the same interests, there is no trust between the two, and I was thinking of getting to know the situation of King Huai'an through Zuo Ning. What I'm calculating now is another matter." Saying that, Yan Qiuer Look at Qin Jiu.
"Wh, what's the matter?" Yan Qiuer's smile was so bright, but Qin Jiu always felt that there was some malicious intention hidden in that smile.
"Does Ninth Brother have any familiar generals?"
When Yan Qiuer asked this question, the hearts of the officials tensed up, each of them guessed what Yan Qiuer meant by asking this question, they couldn't be asking them to rebel, right?
And Yan Sheng glanced at Yan Qiuer, stretched out his hand and rubbed Yan Qiuer's head, and said with a smile: "What bad idea are you planning?" It's not Qiu'er's personality to rebel, this brat likes to make things difficult for others .
"How could it be a bad idea?" Yan Qiuer glanced sideways at Yansheng, grabbed the big hand covering his head and threw it back, "The sage wants to build new weapons for the Tianlan Kingdom's army, and he will leave this matter to the crown prince. Responsible, Zuo Ning wants to send these weapons to the King of Huai'an after they are finished, so that he can blame the prince to get him off the horse. Originally, we couldn't intervene in this matter, but Zuo Ning wanted to cooperate with the Yan family. Borrowing the Yan family's caravan to help him steal and exchange, I thought that these weapons would be escorted by the Yan family anyway, so why not escort them to my own people? As for King Huai'an, just follow Zuo Ning's example of stealing and exchanging equipment?"
"Wonderful! This method is very wonderful!" Lin Shangshu was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and laughed, "With the help of the Yan family, this will surely happen."
Is this going to happen?Yan Qiuer raised the corners of her mouth and smiled slyly, how could these two old foxes be so happy.
So Yan Qiuer suddenly sighed and said: "But, I have calculated carefully, my Yan family has asked Mr. Silang to lead a caravan to the north to return to Ho, and I don't know when I will return. Maybe it will be after this new weapon is made. At that time, the fourth brother was still far away in a foreign land, and if someone leads one or two caravans south to Huai'an, it seems that it will affect the normal business of the Yan family."
Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu were stunned.What does Yan Qiuer mean by this?Affect the normal business of the Yan family?Which is more important, national affairs or the Yan family's business?
Glancing at the expressions of Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu, Yan Sheng said in a deep voice: "That's true. Although I am afraid that something will happen to Yan Xun, as the head of the Yan family, I will not destroy the Yan family because of personal interests. I can't do the thing that Madam broke up again."
For ordinary people like them, national affairs are nothing more than a year or so of turmoil. After the turmoil, those who survived the turmoil had to cultivate the land, and they had to do business if they should do business. Did the sky change? For them, the difference is not big, especially for their businessmen, no matter how bad they are, they can still move their families and take refuge elsewhere.
"That's what I said. Now that the Yan family's reputation has been ruined because of me, if another family fortune is lost, how will my father and son face the ancestors of the Yan family!" Yan Qiu'er said emotionally Bingmao also put on a sad expression of "children and grandchildren are not filial", Yan Fusheng rolled his eyes when he saw it, and thought Yan Qiuer was so good at acting, why didn't he become an actress!
Lin Shangshu shook his beard and stared at Taifu Yan.What's the matter with these two of your family?It was well said before, why did it suddenly happen?The acting was so real that he almost believed that the Yan family was going to be ruined soon!
Taifu Yan stared back at Lin Shangshu.This stinky old man is still staring at him?Who can blame this?If it wasn't for this smelly old man who somehow thought of plotting against his little nephew today, wouldn't the father and son have nothing to do together and sing along?His cousin has been in business for many years and has never suffered a loss. How could he suffer from this stinky old man?
So what to do?Lin Shangshu was stunned. He had been an official for many years, and he had never encountered such a situation.
Lin Qian knelt behind Lin Shangshu and smiled secretly.The smelly old man is at a disadvantage, isn't he?Then let him pretend to be upright all day long, but pretend to be bad, and calculate others everywhere, will he meet someone who can calculate more than him?Was it calculated?snort!
With a "slap", Lin Qian was slapped again by Lin Shangshu before he could get enough of himself.
Little brat, what are you snickering behind?Turn your elbows out!
Lin Qian rubbed his painful head, and kept slandering his grandfather.
Qin Jiu was more straightforward. Seeing Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer's intentions, he asked straightforwardly, "What reward does Patriarch Yan want?"
Hearing this, Yan Sheng turned his head to look at Yan Qiuer, and asked Yan Qiuer if there was anything he wanted. Seeing Yan Qiuer shrugging at him, Yan Sheng pondered for a while before answering Qin Jiu. Said: "I want a customs clearance document that can enter and exit various checkpoints in Tianlan Kingdom within three years."
For merchants, handling customs clearance documents is always the most troublesome thing. Sometimes it takes a few taels of gold to get a customs clearance document, which is not worth the candle, but it still has to be done.
"Two copies." Upon hearing Yan Sheng's request, Yan Qiuer's eyes lit up, and he immediately added another sentence.
Yan Sheng pursed his lips and cast a sidelong glance at Yan Qiuer.Return two copies?The other is for himself?Where is he going?
Yan Qiuer's scalp was numb from Yan Sheng's sight, he smiled and said, "In case of emergencies, in case of emergencies, hehe."
Yan Sheng remained silent.It is also good to have an extra copy in case of emergencies. For businessmen, there are not too many customs clearance documents.
Upon hearing this request, Qin Jiu shut his mouth and silently looked at Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu.Although he has begun to woo officials, he is still a prince in name only, and it is still difficult for him to ask for customs clearance certificates from various places.
His cousin really can't afford it!Taifu Yan smiled helplessly, and then said, "Ah Sheng, can I have a few fewer copies? There is no legitimate title, and this customs clearance document is not easy to handle."
"The business name of the Yan family is not justifiable?" Yan Sheng glanced at Mrs. Yan and said calmly.
Taifu Yan came to be soft, but Lin Shangshu wanted to use hard ones, so he snorted coldly, stared at Yan Sheng to frighten him, and said, "If you don't do the pie in the sky, the Yan family will not do it, so I should find another family to do it." ! As for the Yan family... Hmph! The fight between the people and the government has never ended well!"
Yan Taifu and Yan Xun helped the forehead.
Yan Qiuer narrowed his eyes, and immediately answered Lin Shangshu's words: "Oh! It's scary! But if Lin Shangshu can find a better caravan than the Yan family, then go for it. The Yan family will definitely not hinder Lin Shangshu. About Shangshu. As for the fate of the Yan family...it is naturally a matter of Lin Shangshu's words, but Lin Shangshu can think about it well. One of the pillars will be vacant, and now I don’t know what forces the King of Huai’an has colluded with, Lin Shangshu, if the Yan family is gone, will the King of Huai’an take advantage of it?”
It's rare for this little man not to speak, why is he so annoying when he speaks!Lin Shangshu stared at Yan Qiuer with staring eyes, his beard raised in anger.
Lin Qian looked at Lin Shangshu with a smile, and said, "Grandfather, don't rely on your elders to bully others here. You don't know anything about the business world, so can't you listen honestly? Look at your beard is shaking. It has to be lost, and if we go on, it is not something that can be solved by two sets of customs clearance documents."
"Which side are you on, you little bastard!" Lin Shangshu glared at Lin Qian angrily.
Lin Qian chuckled, stretched out his hand to stroke Lin Shangshu's beard, and said, "Grandfather has been trained to help managers and not relatives."
Lin Shangshu grabbed Lin Qian's face and pushed Lin Qian back: "Kneel down!"
"Still kneeling?" It's true that the grandfather loves him, but he also loves to torment him the most. If he dares not to obey, he will only be punished worse.At such an advanced age, chasing him all day is not tiring.Seeing that Lin Shangshu didn't intend to take back his fate, Lin Qian pouted, then stepped back and knelt down.
"Brother Lin, your method really doesn't work in the Yan Mansion." Taifu Yan also looked at Lin Shangshu gloatingly.
"Then you didn't say it earlier!" Lin Shangshu stared.Lin Shangshu and Yan Taifu have been close friends for many years, and usually cooperate with each other softly and hard in the court, but today Yan Taifu didn't warn in advance, but cheated Lin Shangshu once.
Taifu Yan smiled awkwardly, and said: "I also want to know whether it works or not." Taifu Yan has never seen anyone afraid of this cousin in half his life, he is curious!
Lin Shangshu shook his beard vigorously, snorted coldly, and went to sulk without speaking.These people are bullying him today!He is quite familiar with him, but today no one reminded him that the father and son of the Yan family can't count if they are soft or hard, and he is not nice to others!
Taifu Yan rubbed his nose, turned to Yan Sheng, and said with a smile: "Then A Sheng, cousin, I will get you two sets of customs clearance certificates that are valid for three years. You father and son should think of a way to deal with the new weapons." ?”
"Five years." Just when Taifu Yan thought that this matter could be negotiated, Yan Qiuer suddenly asked for another two years.
Taifu Yan's smile froze on his face.
Yan Xun stopped watching the excitement, and said to Yan Qiuer: "Little cousin, the customs clearance certificate is not such an easy thing to get, we can't get the sage's hand letter, the checkpoint from Chang'an City to Sifang Border Pass There are so many, it’s not that we don’t do it, this... this is really difficult to handle.”
Yan Qiuer looked up at Yan Xun, and said, "If it's easy, Dad will do it himself. And... don't we have a prince and a tutor?" Yan Qiuer specially emphasized the word "prince".
Taifu Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "I have been an official for more than [-] years, but I am not as quick-witted as a young gentleman, ashamed! Good! I will get you the five-year customs clearance document, but As for the new weapons, my cousin and Qiuer will do it!"
Yan Sheng and Yan Qiuer looked at each other with a smile in their eyes.
When seeing off the guests, Qin Jiu called Yan Qiuer to his side.
"Brother Jiu, what's the matter?" Yan Qiuer walked quickly from Yan Sheng's side to Qin Jiu's side, and walked out side by side with Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu looked at Yan Qiuer with a serious expression, and said, "I was young when the King of Huai'an left Chang'an City for Huai'an, so I didn't have any impression of him, but he has been dormant in Huai'an for so many years, and I know it just because of his forbearance." It's not easy to deal with, if he really has been preparing for the throne for so many years but hasn't leaked the news, this person's intelligence and strategy must be superior to others, and it is not known how many advisers he has around him, if you can find out from Zuo Ning Inquire about any news, don't take the risk if it is really difficult, there is always a way."
Yan Qiuer thought that Qin Jiu was going to whisper something to him, but she didn't expect Qin Jiu to entrust him with such seriousness. Yan Qiuer's heart warmed up, and she said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Jiu, I'm just a businessman, I only know how to When doing business with people, I will not do things that harm others and benefit myself.”
"That's good." Qin Jiu nodded, "This should be my own business, but now it will cost your lives. Sometimes I will doubt whether my choice is right or wrong."
Yan Qiuer laughed, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect the careless and careless Brother Ninth to think about these things. I don't know what is right and what is wrong, but I guess if we succeed, we will be wrong." It is also true, if we fail, right is wrong. Don't say it is for the common people in the world, it is just for friendship and benefit. Brother Qian is for friendship, and I am for profit. Yan Taifu and Lin Shangshu also have their own interests. , Brother Jiu, don't think too much, relax and do what you want. Besides, we all follow Brother Jiu. If the leader of the dragons doesn't show some tolerance, what should we do? "
Qin Jiu remained silent for a while, and then said again: "Qiuer, can I take Fusheng out for a chat?"
Hearing this, Yan Qiuer chuckled lightly: "Fusheng is the most unruly, if you want to go out with her, just tell her yourself, it's useless if you ask me, it's up to others whether she wants to go out or not?"
Qin Jiu also laughed after hearing this.Indeed, if Yan Fusheng could be restrained, there would be no such person as Yan San in Chang'an City.
"Brother Nine is done chatting, you have to bring him back safely."
"Naturally." Qin Jiuchong cupped his hands at Yan Qiuer, then ran to Yan Fusheng, discussing secretly with Yan Fusheng where to go for a while.
Lin Qian, who was not far away, also wanted to intervene, but Lin Shangshu was controlling him by his side, so he had no choice but to give up.
After sending away the noisy group of people, the Yan Mansion immediately became quiet, and even the rustling of the wind blowing leaves could be heard clearly.
Yan Qiuer took a deep breath, turned around and entered the door, and when he looked up, he saw Yan Sheng standing with his hands behind his back in front of the hanging flower door, watching him from across a small courtyard, his eyes were calm and focused.
Yan Qiuer stood blankly at the door, caught in Yan Sheng's seemingly eternal and unchanging focused gaze, unable to escape.
Yan Sheng was waiting for Yan Qiuer to come over, but saw Yan Qiuer stopped at the door, Yan Sheng was startled, thinking that something happened to Yan Qiuer, he strode towards Yan Qiuer.
"Qiul, what's the matter?"
When Yan Sheng moved, Yan Qiuer came back to his senses, blinked at Yan Sheng's worried face, and smiled.
Why are you laughing again?Yan Sheng had already walked in front of Yan Qiuer, looking at Yan Qiuer with a bright smile in confusion, but felt that Yan Qiuer's smile was a bit prettier than usual.
"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Yan Sheng, smiling unabated: "Yan Sheng, I seem to like you quite a bit."
Hearing that Yan Sheng didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he just poked Yan Qiu'er on the forehead and said, "It seems redundant."
Yan Qiuer wrinkled her nose, didn't say anything to refute, just smiled and took Yan Sheng's hand, and walked into the depths of Yan's mansion together.
Yan Sheng didn't say anything, instead he held Yan Qiu'er's hand and walked slowly.
Seeing this, Liang Cheng tactfully dragged Tang Shuo away, entrusting Tang Shuo to stay in the dark obediently, and then went back to Shi'an Garden ahead of Yan Sheng and Yan Qiu'er.He had to tell other people what he just discussed with Lin Shangshu and others, maybe they don't need their help, but it's all the Yan family's business, each of them has to know it well.
As February falls, Wangchun on Dongyuan Avenue is almost in full bloom, and the elegant fragrance drifts with the wind, blurring the depression of winter, making Yan Mansion, which has been dull all winter, a bit more lively, and it doesn't look so bad It's close to human.
In the more than ten years since the mansion was established, it was the first time for Yan Sheng to walk so slowly in the Yan mansion, and it was also the first time to carefully watch the Dongyuan Avenue in spring. He even felt that this was the first time he knew what his Yan mansion looked like , and being able to see this scene is all because of having Yan Qiuer by his side, this child always allows him to see different scenes.
Thinking of this, Yan Sheng held Yan Qiuer's hand even harder.
Feeling the force exerted on his hand, Yan Qiuer turned his head to look at Yansheng, and happened to meet Yansheng's eyes, Yan Qiuer unconsciously raised a smile.With Yan Qiuer's smile, Yan Sheng's eyes unconsciously burst into a smile, as if he was responding to Yan Qiuer's smile, and this smile softened Yan Sheng's usual seriousness. His face made the already handsome Yan Sheng look even more heart-pounding.
Yan Qiuer curled his lips in dissatisfaction suddenly, and kicked Yan Sheng's calf as soon as he lifted his foot.
Yan Sheng was taken aback for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, he frowned and looked at Yan Qiuer suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"Don't laugh anymore, especially don't laugh outside."
"Why?" Yan Sheng was confused.Others make him smile often, why doesn't Qiuer let him laugh anymore?
Yan Qiuer pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "You smile so ugly, it's embarrassing."
Yan Sheng was at a loss for words, it was the first time he heard the evaluation of "ugly" from others.
"Dislike?" Yan Sheng stared at Yan Qiuer and asked.
Yan Qiuer turned his head to look at Yan Sheng's face again, sighed helplessly and said, "I'm used to it."
Yan Sheng was silent, he really didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, in the end Yan Sheng just rubbed Yan Qiuer's little head hard, shook his head and laughed.
Yan Qiuer bared her teeth from being rubbed, and took a lot of effort to free her head. After a short silence, she spoke to Yan Sheng again: "Yan Sheng, do you still remember what the third brother said?"
"Sanlang? Which sentence?"
"Third brother said that if you want to go to the troubled waters of the royal family, the best way is to split one, so as to cut off the tail in the end to save your life."
"You want to be this abandoned son?" Yan Qiuer said this at this moment, and Yan Sheng could only think of this explanation.
Sure enough, as soon as Yan Sheng finished speaking, Yan Qiuer nodded: "Even if you don't mention the efforts made by the ancestors of the Yan family for the Yan family's century-old family business, just say that the current Yan family is also your painstaking effort, not to mention that I am not The Yan family, isn't it just right to split up at this time... Eh? Hey! Yan Sheng, what are you doing?"
Before Yan Qiu'er finished speaking, Yan Sheng's big hand pressed and rubbed his head again.
"How can you fit so many things in your little head?" Yan Sheng said while rubbing, watching Yan Qiuer struggling left and right felt interesting, so he rubbed even more vigorously.
Yan Qiuer was angry: "Yansheng, I'm telling you something serious!"
Yan Sheng stopped, raised Yan Qiu'er's face and looked at Yan Qiu'er, said seriously: "I'll tell you something serious, this is the Yan family's business, if you have to get rid of it, it should have nothing to do with you."
"How could your matter have nothing to do with me?" Yan Qiuer frowned, staring at Yan Sheng coldly.So far, what has nothing to do with him?If he could leave Yan Sheng behind, then he would have run away when he bought Huayue Pavilion.
"Then how can you let me stand by and watch what you are going to do? Do you really think it's clear?"
Yan Qiuer was at a loss for words, and he felt a little guilty when he spoke again: "I am also thinking of the Yan family."
Yan Sheng gouged out Yan Qiuer's eyes, let go of Yan Qiuer's head, and while Yan Qiuer was not paying attention, he flicked his finger on Yan Qiuer's forehead, and said in a deep voice: "There are too many people who are thinking about the Yan family. I’m going, I’m not missing you, if you have that spare time, why not think about how to write a love letter to me.”
"Really want to write it?" Thinking of the love letter, Yan Qiuer felt a little headache.Although it is not unwilling, it is really difficult to write a love letter every day.
"Don't want to write?" Yan Sheng scowled, squinting at Yan Qiuer.
"It's not that I don't want to." Yan Qiuer hurriedly explained, "It's just... er... my son is ignorant, he can memorize a few books of business economics, but he's ashamed to meet people. Besides, I'm here, you What love letters are you still reading?"
"Yeah, that's right." Yan Sheng nodded, and after seeing Yan Qiuer secretly relieved, he added, "Since you're here, read it to me after you finish writing."
Yan Qiuer was stunned, and stood there dumbstruck watching Yan Sheng go further and further away. It took him a long time to come to his senses, and he hurriedly caught up with Yan Sheng to beg for mercy. Couldn't save the situation.
In Shi'an Garden, Yan Sheng was already sitting in his study discussing with Yuan Xu about the Chamber of Commerce, while Yan Qiuer was sitting not far away, looking at Yan Sheng with a sad face.
Liang Cheng looked left and right, he didn't understand how these two people were fine when they were at the gate, why they behaved like this when they returned to Shi'an Garden, what happened along the way?
Liang Cheng leaned over to Yan Qiuer curiously and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Wulang?"
Yan Qiuer looked up at Liang Cheng, and suddenly asked a question that made Liang Cheng's heart shudder: "Guard Liang, how do you write this love letter?"
love letter?What love letter?Did the lord ask Mr. Wulang to write a love letter?How did the lord think of this?This doesn't look like a master's style at all!
The corner of Liang Cheng's mouth twitched, and he replied hesitantly: "This... the subordinates can write the account book, but the love letter is a bit..."
Yan Qiuer sighed, and continued to look at Yansheng sadly, hoping that Yansheng's face could give him some inspiration, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of anything, so Yan Qiuer simply pulled a piece of paper, He wrote four big characters with a brush, and asked Liang Cheng to hand it over to Yan Sheng.
Liang Cheng took the paper with only four characters written on it, held back his smile, walked to Yan Sheng who was five steps away, and handed the four-character love letter to Yan Sheng.
Yan Sheng did not expect that Yan Qiu'er could really write, and he could write so fast. Yan Sheng took the love letter from Liang Cheng, opened it, and saw that there were only four words on it: I like you.The four characters are written in a flying and dancing manner, and one can tell at a glance that the person who wrote them is not in a good mood.
Yuan Xu looked curiously, and after seeing the four words, he subconsciously looked at Liang Cheng. Seeing Liang Cheng nodding, Yuan Xu shrank back and sat down.Fortunately, Liang Cheng revealed something to them in advance, otherwise he might have said something stupid in such a situation.
Yan Sheng thought for a while, spread the paper out in front of him, picked up a pen and wrote a few words, and handed it to Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng took five steps back and returned the love letter to Yan Qiuer.
Yan Qiuer unfolded the paper suspiciously, and saw that there was a column of small characters next to the four words he wrote: The feelings are not sincere, rewrite.
Yan Qiuer stared.Why do you still have to rewrite this?Looking up at Yan Sheng, he saw that Yan Sheng was discussing matters with Yuan Xu, his side face was tense, as if he was not very happy.
Yan Qiuer scratched her head, changed a piece of paper, wrote three words on it, and handed it to Liang Cheng again.
Liang Cheng took the second love letter and walked up to Yan Sheng happily, looking forward to Yan Sheng's second comment.
Yan Qiuer also held the pen holder in his mouth, looking at Yansheng nervously.
I saw Yan Sheng unfolding the love letter solemnly, carefully reading the three words "I love you" over and over again several times, then drew a few strokes, folded the love letter neatly, and handed it to Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng coughed lightly, holding back the smile that was about to burst out, and returned the second love letter to Yan Qiuer.
Yan Qiuer couldn't wait to unfold the love letter, and saw that Yan Sheng drew a big circle on the word "love", and then wrote two small characters next to it: "Where is love?"
Yan Qiuer was stunned.Why didn't he know when Yan Sheng became so hypocritical?Yan Qiuer raised his head and stared at Yan Sheng's serious side face. After staring for a while, he suddenly noticed that the corners of Yan Sheng's mouth were raised higher and higher, while Yuan Xu, who was opposite Yan Sheng, was already bowing his back with his mouth covered in discomfort. Looking at Liang Cheng who was standing next to him, he could only see that Liang Cheng's face was contorted from a suppressed smile.
Yan Qiuer's face turned red instantly, she slapped the pen and paper on the table in anger, turned around and left.
"Mr. Wulang, where are you going?" Liang Cheng was startled, and hurriedly asked.
"Find love!"
The three people in the study couldn't hold back their belly laughs.
"My lord, don't you want to go and see Mr. Wulang?" It's hard to guard against such a silent trickster like Mr. Wulang.
"Go, go at night." By the way at night, discuss with Qiuer about the issue of sincere feelings.
