Yan Yunyou was born in Jiangnan, so it's not surprising that he has some old acquaintances in Jiangnan.

But who was able to find the Qin family with such a great ability, after Shen Yixuan thought about it, his heart gradually became gloomy.

He waved away the servants tiredly, and sat at the desk to read a book.

Yan Yunyou doesn't like to make friends with people, and there are not many people who can come to Yan Yunyou. Tianshui Villa has always sent people to invite people openly and aboveboard, and will never take people out without saying hello.

Excluding Tianshui Villa, there is only one person left - Zhou Yue.

Shen Yixuan's guess was right, the person who came to invite Yan Yunyou was Zhou Yue, the wealthy businessman from Jiangnan.

Yan Yunyou's friendship with him is not particularly deep, so he might not have come out.

But the man said that it was related to His Royal Highness, it was by no means a personal matter.

Anyway, Shen Yixuan didn't come back, Yan Yunyou agreed after a little thought.

What they went to was not the Zhou Mansion, but the private room that Zhou Yue booked in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

This is Yan Yunyou's first visit to Xiaoxiang Pavilion since returning to Jiangnan.

The boss is still the same boss, Xiaoxiang Restaurant is still the largest restaurant in Jinling.

Zhou Yue seemed to have been waiting here very early, at least when Yan Yunyou arrived, he had already had three cups of tea here.

The room next to the window was covered by bamboo curtains, probably because it was too early and there were not many people upstairs and downstairs.

As soon as Yan Yunyou passed by, someone opened the bamboo curtain for him, Zhou Yue sat inside and waited for him, he said with a smile: "Mr. Yan, long time no see."

Yan Yunyou walked over and replied: "Long time no see. Boss Zhou looks good. I think the business must be booming in these days when we don't see each other."

Zhou Yue smiled and waved his hands: "It's very comfortable to talk to Mr. Yan, please sit down first."

There were wine and dishes on the table, but they were not touched. Even Zhou Yue just drank tea and did not move his chopsticks.

Yan Yunyou walked over and sat down, and said directly: "Boss Zhou told me to come over, I'm afraid it's not as simple as reminiscing about the past."

Zhou Yue picked up the jug, poured wine for both of them, handed over a glass and said, "Young Master Yan still hasn't changed at all, his heart is straight, and he speaks very straight."

Yan Yunyou took the wine and replied: "That's the only way to be less lenient to Boss Zhou. I want to go back as soon as possible, so Boss Zhou can make a long story short."

The implication is that I don't have time to catch up with you.

Zhou Yue could hear it naturally, and he drank the wine in his glass: "Okay, then I'll make a long story short. Last night Xu Huaili Xu Zhifu was killed. There was a lot of noise about this incident, and Mr. Yan must have heard about it."

The person was killed by Yan Yunyou, how could he not know.I didn't expect things to spread so fast.

"So what if I heard about it?" Yan Yunyou put down his wine glass, and said in a calm tone, "Boss Zhou wants to know something or does he want Yan to do something?"

"Mr. Yan is indeed a smart man." Zhou Yue said, turning his eyes to the bustling market outside the window.It is cool in autumn, and many people wear thick clothes.

"Smart people don't speak dark words. What I want to tell you today is purely my own idea. I don't do it for anyone. You can forget about it after Mr. Yan heard it. Don't worry about it."

Since Zhou Yue said so, he must have his reasons, Yan Yunyou nodded: "Boss Zhou, please tell me."

"I know that Xu Huaili was killed by you." Zhou Yue stared at Yan Yunyou closely, for fear that Yan Yunyou would not admit it.

Unexpectedly, Yan Yunyou smiled suddenly, she didn't intend to deny it at all, and only replied with one word: "Yes."

"I know Mr. Yan can't let His Highness go." Zhou Yue felt relieved, pretending to be calm: "Xu Huaili couldn't stay at all, I've been looking for someone to lurk for a few days and I'm ready to do it. I didn't wait for the right opportunity, but I waited for you .”

"So Boss Zhou invited me over for a drink today just to tell me that I killed someone last night?" Yan Yunyou said with a smile.

But it's not funny at all.

"Of course not. What I mean is that since you have done it, you might as well send the Buddha to the west. This matter is of great importance, otherwise you would not have stolen the list from His Highness the Fifth Highness. Something happened to the prime minister of a country, and the entire court was shocked." It’s going to be chaotic. Officials and officials protect each other, and the inextricable relationship among them is constantly being cut.”

"Then what do you want me to do? I didn't kill Xu Huaili because I couldn't let go of the Second Highness. I went to Kyoto and wanted to understand many things. I am not an ungrateful person. I will never forget what I should repay the Second Highness." , but there’s no need to spend my whole life with you.” Yan Yunyou raised his eyebrows, his black eyes as calm as a pool of water: “So there are probably some things that we can’t do anything about.”

"You can." Zhou Yue said in a deep voice: "The Second Highness has the kindness to know me, without him, I would not be where I am today. You said that you would not be ungrateful, then do you know that when you were in the Second Prince's Mansion, Prime Minister Zhou personally came to ask for someone and wanted to find out the whereabouts of the list. The Second Highness would not hesitate to fall out with Prime Minister Zhou and protect you. Did you know that when you were taken away by the people of the Imperial City Department, the Second Highness would not eat or drink for two days? The prime minister and noble concubine are having a temper tantrum?"

Naturally, Yan Yunyou didn't know these things, but she couldn't ignore them in her heart.

Zhou Yue took a sip of his wine and said: "I am not going to be the lobbyist of the Second Highness today. Since you were 14 years old, the Second Highness has taken care of you in every possible way. Now that he is in trouble, if you insist on not helping me, I will never force you. "

Yan Yunyou clenched her hands, and replied: "Last year when the floods hit the south of the Yangtze River, the imperial court allocated funds for disaster relief. It was those officials who filled their pockets. Now I don't think there is anything wrong with pulling them down. Besides, Chang'an is also working on it, Your Majesty. Those in my hand are capable people. I am meager, so I wonder what Boss Zhou thinks I can do?"

"Mr. Yan is right. The money for disaster relief came from the Ministry of Households. I mean, when Mr. Yan is asked to reveal the truth, the servant of the Ministry of Households is the mastermind behind the scenes." Zhou Yue's voice faded, perhaps he himself I don't know.

"Obviously it's Zhou Yu who covers the sky with one hand, Boss Zhou will really leave people alone." Yan Yunyou sneered: "I'm not talented, but I have brains. Don't do stupid things."

"Prime Minister Zhou is not clean, so is His Royal Highness clean? Then what does His Royal Highness do those villages in the outskirts of Chang'an, and do you know who is the backstage boss of the biggest casino in Chang'an, the Jinyu Tower in Liren City?" Zhou Yue narrated lightly, as if talking about something irrelevant.

Yan Yunyou was in a cold sweat.He really didn't know these things, but he also believed Zhou Yue's words.

Money is an indispensable thing for those who want to do great things.But the difference is that Shen Yihan took the money from the national treasury, and although Shen Yiyang's money didn't come to the public, it had nothing to do with the internal treasury.

It's no wonder that Changlefang has been the first casino in Chang'an since it opened for many years. It turns out that there is such a master behind the scenes.

"Boss Zhou is really powerful. Although he is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, he is very clear about the affairs of Chang'an." Yan Yunyou replied calmly.

"Mr. Yan, you don't need to praise me. I invite you here today. Whether to help or not is up to you. I can only say that if you help, the princes will have less trouble, and you will also have less trouble." Trouble. Even if you don't think about His Highness, you should also think about His Highness Fifth. If His Highness's matter is brought up, and the prime minister and several princes have troubles, then the chaos will not only be in the court. Without His Highness Protect, with His Highness Fifth Prince's disposition...Yan Gongzi should think about it carefully."

Yan Yunyou held Qingbai in his hand, clearly determined to start over, why couldn't he let him go.

Is it because men and men are against the way of heaven, so the world has to be embarrassed, and everyone wants to throw more stones on this road?

"Why did you come to me anyway?"
