I was really sleepy, and although the carriage was not running smoothly, Doudou still slept very soundly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A few hours later, the carriage stopped at the gate of a manor.

The person who drove the car was a secret guard disguised, and after he reined in the reins of his horse, he asked in a low voice: "Master, Fuyunzhuang has arrived." ”

Huo Xiao saw that Doudou slept really sweetly, so he couldn't bear to wake her up, so he simply carried her off the carriage directly.

The secret guard knocked on the door of the villa in the same way as he had agreed.

Soon there was a sound of rustling footsteps inside the door, and in a short time the door was opened.

Four or five men came out with two men with lanterns.

"Master, you've finally arrived." The man at the head was none other than Huo Xiao's guard captain Tie Liang.

Huo Xiao said softly: "Don't be polite, go in." ”

Tie Liang and the others knew how important the little princess was in the heart of the little master, so they quickly closed their mouths and restrained their steps, and brought them into Fuyunzhuang.

After settling Doudou in the guest room, Huo Xiao followed Tie Liang to the owner's courtyard.

The owner of Fuyunzhuang is surnamed Chen, and he has passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, because he has lived a leisurely and comfortable life over the years, and he looks much younger than his actual age.

If it is an ordinary guest who comes to the door, the owner of Chen Zhuang will not sacrifice his rest time to wait.

But today's distinguished guests are different, even if they don't have such a noble status as the little prince and the little princess, they are also the daughters and sons-in-law of Yuan Zongzhi, and they must not be treated slowly.

At the beginning, the Chen family was doing business in the Jiangnan area, and they were not less taken care of by Yuan Zheng, and the owner of Chen Zhuang himself was also a knowledgeable and talented man, and he attached great importance to the friendship with Yuan Zheng.

Listening to the footsteps at the gate of the courtyard, the owner of Chen Zhuang greeted him.

After some greetings, Huo Xiao followed Chen Zhuang into his study.

A night robe did not damage the noble aura on Huo Xiao's body, and the owner of Chen Zhuang secretly admired it in his heart.

No wonder Yuan Zongzhi is willing to hand over the connections in his hand to him, and sure enough, he is a young handsome man, even though he is still so young, but no one dares to have the idea of underestimating him.

The two sat down separately, and the people retreated after serving tea.

Lord Chen Zhuang said with a smile: "The little prince came to the cold house, could it be that it is also for the Yan family's birthday banquet tomorrow?" ”

Huo Xiao said: "Master Chen Zhuang is really refreshing, but the main purpose of my trip is not for the birthday banquet, but for the people who participate in the birthday banquet." ”

Master Chen's hand paused, and said: "The old man has been obsessed with poetry and books in the past few years, but the news is blocked, what other noble and incomparable guest can the Yan family invite, and can attract so much attention from the little prince?" ”

Huo Xiao said directly: "Second Highness Yu Wenheng." ”

Lord Chen's eyelids jumped: "His Royal Highness is the only prince today, how could he surrender his identity to congratulate Old Man Yan on his birthday...... Could it be for ......"

The Yan family is a well-known salt merchant in Yangzhou, and His Royal Highness and the Yan family are colluded, and there is no need to think about what the deep meaning is.

The salt merchants are not clean, and the royal family is even less clean, what good can the two sides be mixed up, it is really not something that ordinary people like him should mess with.

Huo Xiao said with a smile: "Master Chen is too worried, you don't want to mess with those bad things, I don't want to mess with it either, I just want to borrow your light and go to eat a birthday banquet of a big salt merchant without knowing it." ”

Master Chen Zhuang sighed and said: "Your father-in-law's memory is also a little better, I just mentioned it a little in front of him more than ten years ago, I didn't expect him to remember it after so long, so I'll talk to you." ”

Huo Xiao was secretly amused, his father-in-law, unless he was not interested in this world, where would there be things he couldn't remember.

Master Chen Zhuang was not embarrassed, and said: "The Yan family and my Chen family are world friends, and they have been friends for several lifetimes, and my great-grandfather began to do business in Jiangnan when he was young.

It is precisely because of this that many big businessmen in Jiangnan have forgotten that neither of us is from Jiangnan, and our ancestral homes are in Baoding Mansion, and they are both authentic northerners.

The Chen family was engaged in the silk and grain business, and the Yan family was also in the grocery business at the beginning, and then they started to do the salt business without knowing where to find a way.

My ancestors of the Chen family were also cultivators and heirlooms, and in order to make a living, they had to go into business, and when it came to my father's generation, they had the heart to stop and let future generations pick up books again, but I didn't expect things to be easier said than done.

Eight years ago, I disposed of the business in Jiangnan and returned to my hometown with my family, but I didn't expect that just a few quiet days later, the old thing of the Yan family also chased back to Baoding Mansion. ”

Huo Xiao smiled: "Could it be that he also has the same plan as you?" ”

Lord Chen Zhuang shook his head and said: "The salt merchant is not so easy to do, even if he really wants to stop it, he can't take it, not to mention that the Yan family is too prosperous, so what will everyone eat if they take it?" ”

Huo Xiao said: "What you mean is that only the old lady of the Yan family who returned to Baoding Mansion, and the other old and young masters of the Yan family still live in Yangzhou, but they only came back this time when the old lady Yan did his birthday." ”

Lord Chen nodded: "Exactly." ”

Huo Xiao said: "You also told me about this matter, and I'm not interested, just go to Yan's house for a banquet tomorrow and bring me and Neiko in."

Chen Zhuang has never seen Doudou, but Baoding Mansion is not far from the capital, and the rumors of the little princess Tianzi have been heard.

raised his eyes again to look at Huo Xiao's handsome face, which was so angry that everyone was angry, that he was a little embarrassed for a while.

The appearance of this little couple is even more difficult than ascending to the sky if they want not to attract the attention of others, and the little prince is obviously rushing down to the second highness this time, in case something happens......

Huo Xiao could naturally see his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will not embarrass you, even if we cause any trouble, we will not let the family grab the pigtails, and we will never involve the Chen family." ”

Speaking of which, what else can the owner of Chen Zhuang say? I had to say yes.

Huo Xiao stood up with a smile, arched his hand at the owner of Chen Zhuang and said, "It's not early, you rest first, and I'll go to sleep too." ”

Master Chen stood up and gave a polite look, and ordered someone to send Huo Xiao back to the guest house.

Huo Xiao returned to the guest house to wash up, and Doudou woke up from his dream.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at Huo Xiao: "Hmm...... This is Fuyunzhuang? ”

Huo Xiao smiled and took off his coat and lay down beside her, and said with a smile: "You slept so soundly, you didn't know that you were sold." ”

Doudou didn't want to talk to him, so he hugged his arm and said, "You just went to see the owner?" ”

Huo Xiao said: "Well, he has promised to take us to Yan's house tomorrow." ”

Doudou was a little confused and said, "Yan family? Didn't you want to take me to see Yu Wenheng's good show, why did you get involved with the Yan family again? ”

Huo Xiao said with a smile: "I wanted to tell you before, you don't want to hear it, the Yan family is a big salt merchant, tomorrow the old lady of the Yan family will have a birthday, Yu Wenheng will go, let's follow Master Chen Zhuang to go in and watch a good show." ”

Doudou is even more confused, a salt merchant surnamed Yan?

So the surname Tang should be in the sugar business, and the surname Qian should open a money bank, and she, surnamed Yuan, can only sell rice balls?

Huo Xiao said: "What are you thinking? I guess the surname Yan is the idea of wanting to draw salt. ”

Doudou woke up and said, "You mean that Yu Wenheng wants to fight the idea of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion again!" ”
