After agreeing on the method of contact, Liu Han said goodbye to King Qin, and King Qin did not stay, and sent him away with a smile, and after Liu Han's figure disappeared in the green trees, the smile gradually disappeared, and a layer of melancholy floated.

After a while, a guard came to report that Liu Han and his party had left.

"How's it going?" asked King Qin.

At this time, there was no one else around, only a goatee, so it was naturally a goatee to ask, Wang Pounce.

The goatee king did not speak immediately, his eyes were a little puzzled, as if he had a difficult problem to solve in his heart, and the king of Qin did not urge, but sat down and continued to drink tea for a long time.

"It's hard to say, but ,.。 , I'm going to win, it's hard. ”

The words were very hesitant and difficult, but not tactful, very direct, Wang Pu's meaning was very clear, this person's cultivation could not be seen through, after all, he didn't make a move, but he felt very high, and it was intuitively difficult to defeat him.

Wang Pu was recruited by King Qin and had the strength of the peak strength of the Nine Ranks, in other words, Liu Han's cultivation might have broken through the Martial Master and entered the Grandmaster realm, or he was also at the peak of the Nine Ranks.

King Qin showed a look of relief, this ten thousand taels is worth it!

He put down the teacup, got up, and instead of leaving, he walked to the grass hut and pushed open the door of the grass hut.

From the outside, the thatched hut is a little decayed and old, with some blackened doors, old and yellowed window paper, and a swallow's nest in the corner of the eaves.

Can push open the door, the inside of the grass house is clean and abnormal, the ground is spotless, bright as new, there is no furniture in the house, only a small table in the middle, an old man in a blue robe and white beard holds his chin with one hand, plays with a teacup with the other, stares at the ground thoughtfully, and the King of Qin who pushes the door in is like the wind blowing in from outside, without a trace of care.

King Qin seemed to be accustomed to the old man's posture, and he didn't say anything, he sat down cross-legged opposite the old man, stretched out his hand to pour himself a cup of tea first, and slowly tasted it.

After a while, a smile appeared on the old man's face: "This son is interesting, after taking it, it can be of great use." ”

King Qin picked up the teacup and sent it to his mouth, and only after hearing the words did he hesitate a little before bringing the teacup to his mouth, and took a sip gently, the white-bearded old man sighed softly: "This son is very stubborn, and his mind is also quite smart. ”

King Qin nodded silently, he had thought of this just now, Liu Han came up and said that he was interested, although his words were humble, but in fact he did not give an inch, bargained with him, and did not care about his status as a prince at all.

"Then, is it that the lonely king is reckless, and he shouldn't be given the Changle Order. King Qin was a little upset when he said that, when he read the record of Taizu, he was envious in his heart, there were so many strategists and fierce generals under Taizu's command, and the army was invincible, but how could he have such a strategist and fierce general?

Strategist, he conquered Luan Xuan, but Luan Xuan is good at official business, is a master of government affairs, and the only one who can really outline the outline is the white-bearded old man in front of him, Bai Yong; Bai Yong's name is Yong, but in fact he is outside and inside, he was born in the Bai family in Hedong, his name is not obvious, but he has a gully in his chest, he is really a great talent, he accidentally learned that he went to worship him as a teacher in person, and he respected his strategy.

"Good to give," Bai Yong smiled: "A piece of Changle Order, it's not a big deal, you can't manage the government or the army, it's nothing." ”

Hearing this, King Qin felt a little relieved, and Bai Yong said again: "The imperial capital is treacherous now, such a person is just right, but our people in the imperial capital can't all be revealed to him, this kind of greedy villain can't be fully trusted." ”

"Yes, sir. King Qin nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and then showed a sad face: "I received an urgent delivery from the palace last night, and a little eunuch in charge of Yawen Pavilion was killed by the order of Gonggong Mu. ”

Yawen Pavilion, an inconspicuous courtyard in the deep palace of the imperial capital, is currently gathering the eyes of the whole world, and it is rumored that the seriously ill emperor lives here, and all the forces in the DPRK and China try their best to listen to the news from here every day.

But Yawen Pavilion didn't reveal a trace of news, even the queen couldn't get in, the eunuchs serving in it were personally arranged by Mu Gonggong, and Yan Guifei, the mother of King Qin, couldn't get any news at all, but yesterday the news came from the concubine that a little eunuch in Yawen Pavilion was ordered to be killed by Mu Gonggong.

"It seems that some people can't bear it. Bai Yong's expression was contemptuous, and King Qin sighed: "My father's health is not safe, these people don't know how to make his old man feel at ease, but they are still fighting for power and profit, they really deserve to be killed!"

"Killing is inexhaustible," Bai Yong frowned slightly: "The sage has a saying, the water is clear, there is no fish, and the person is observed, there is no disciple;

Knowing in the heart is not to depose them, but to have their own use, what is the king? Use the people who should be used in the place of use. ”

Bai Yong's words carried a somewhat instructive tone, and King Qin not only did not get angry, but instead saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. for reminding me, this king should be remembered." ”

Bai Yong nodded with satisfaction, picked up the teacup and took a leisurely sip of tea.

In King Qin's view, Liu Han is a subordinate official that he has not yet fully subdued, but in Liu Han's opinion, he and King Qin are just a cooperative relationship, of course, this cooperation is only very shallow.

Lao Huang was noncommittal about this, but just reminded King Qin that he was probably unwilling to be lonely, after all, King Qin was the third son of the emperor, older than the prince, but his mother was not the queen, so he was not allowed to be the prince.

Liu Han didn't care, and declared unashamedly: "If King Qin really wants to take the throne, I really want to be a minister from the dragon, isn't it easier to investigate that guy like this, and then mobilize the tiger guards to kill them all, what's wrong, but unfortunately, this King of Qin is at most a vassal king, and the prince's position looks unstable, in fact, as long as the queen is there, the prince is as stable as Mount Tai." ”

For the former, Lao Huang expressed doubts, and for the latter, Lao Huang expressed approval. There are many rumors about the crown prince, but after all, the prince has been named for so long, and the court has recognized it, and there is no major negligence, even the emperor cannot be easily deposed, not to mention that the prince has the strong support of his mother's family. If the king of Qi wants to ascend to the throne, the possibility is very small.

But in any case, the Hanhai Trading Company was protected by the King of Qin, and Chang'an didn't need him to bother, he secretly told Qian Ming and Liu Shui about his relationship with the King of Qin.

"If there is any trouble in Chang'an Store in the future, you can go to King Qin, but don't go to him for trivial matters, unless you can't sell it, understand no!"

Qian Ming and Liu Shui were a little stupid, Liu Shui didn't care, Qian Ming reacted quickly, he immediately realized the dangers and opportunities, Liu Han saw his doubts, and told him that everything was based on himself.

"If the king of Qin wants silver, don't give it, let him go to the imperial capital to find me. Liu Han solemnly emphasized, Qian Ming nodded, and Liu Han told Qian Ming that Liu Shan wanted to build the Zhuangzi outside the city into a dock fort, which was their top priority in the past two years.

"This dock fort is called Sanjiang Fort, two rivers become one river, the goods pass through the whole Yong, arrive at the big river, can be connected to the state, and even go directly to the imperial capital," Liu Han said a little excited, this location is so wonderful, he doesn't know how this Bi Liang fooled the original owner, how to buy this Zhuangzi.

Thinking of Bi Liang again, I couldn't help but think of Yang Qiu again, according to the itinerary, Yang Qiu should have arrived in these two days, so I asked if there was any news of Yang Qiu, Qian Ming shook his head, as soon as the caravan went out, it was like an eagle scattered out, and the family could only wait for them to fly back.

"Master, the shopkeeper of this Chang'an store is still made by Yang Qiu. Qian Ming mentioned it again.

If Liu Han had considered Yang Qiu before, now he had figured it out, this Chang'an store could not be handed over to Yang Qiu, it could only be Qian Ming. With the support of King Qin, Chang'an Store is bound to develop rapidly, and the status of Chang'an Store is becoming more and more important, the west wants to support Liangzhou, and the east wants to support the imperial capital, the shopkeeper of Chang'an Store has to deal with more complex situations, Yang Qiu has no ability at all, only Qian Ming, or transfer the old Wang shopkeeper of Liangzhou back, and Yang Qiu can serve as the second shopkeeper.

Liu Han told Qian Ming about the power, Qian Ming also understood, no longer shirked, Liu Han finally told him that if he didn't do it, or if he didn't do it well, then he would transfer the old Wang shopkeeper from Liangzhou, and he would go to the South China Sea to open up a new area.

Qian Ming hurriedly promised that he would run the Chang'an store well and never let down Liu Han's trust.

"In addition to Sanjiang Fort, if, what I am talking about is without affecting the construction of Sanjiang Fort," Qian Ming nodded to show understanding, Liu Han continued: "If, if there is a dock fort near Xiongqi Mountain for sale, you must buy it, and if there is a mountain for sale, you must also buy it." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Qian Ming, but also Lao Huang didn't understand, it's okay to buy a dock fort, what is it to buy a mountain for? Liu Han smiled, and didn't explain, just let them do it.

The next day is the agreed day of marriage, Liu Han took Liu Tie to Zhilan Courtyard, the courtyard has already been prepared, everywhere is lit up, as if it is really a happy event, Liu Han told his mother that he has not been in Chang'an for a long time, so there are no relatives, if you want to talk about friends, Xi Feng is one, but that day Xi Feng's attitude, it is not appropriate to invite him again.

Liu Han's explanation not only did not make her mother angry, but on the contrary, her mother was very happy. In this brothel of the Qinglou, the one who spends money is the uncle, not to mention not inviting relatives and friends, there is a kind of superb and even he is not present, just come to the sedan chair and carry the person back.

The green bamboo girl wore a red wedding dress and covered her head, Liu Han also had to accompany the acting, the green bamboo kowtowed to her mother three times, which was regarded as a thank you for the kindness of nurturing, and said goodbye to the yard.

To say that this mother is quite trustworthy, she really prepared a dowry of more than 2,000 taels of silver, hired three carts to pull it, and sent it to the inn along the way. This made Liu Han a little stupid, there was nothing prepared in the inn, it was empty, except for Lao Huang, there was no one else.

The shopkeeper and Xiao Er were stupid at first, and then inquired about Sister Hong of Zhilan Courtyard, and immediately overjoyed, Sister Hong went out of the pavilion to the inn, which was the first time in Chang'an City.

Liu Han didn't know how to be busy, but Lao Huang knew, he was not in a hurry, let the shopkeeper and Xiao Er prepare some tea, and asked Liu Han to take some silver money to the sedan chair man and the coachman last time, according to the etiquette of marriage, let the bride help the green bamboo in.

However, in the end, it is not a daughter-in-law, all the ceremonies end here, and the green bamboo enters the house and it ends, and there is naturally no worship or anything.

"Okay, don't be bitter about your face, the little girl is quite smart," Lao Huang looked at Liu Han's cold face, and couldn't help but joke in a low voice, Liu Han had already told him all the suspicions on Luzhu, Lao Huang's opinion was to simply sell it, but Liu Han felt that it was inappropriate, at least he couldn't find out who was behind this Luzhu.

"Send her to the manor in the afternoon, and let Tina and the others keep an eye on her. ”
