Mo'er was taken aback, fed Qu Tianlin a meal, and looked at the two of them in confusion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qu Tianlin opened his mouth to eat the meat porridge handed to his mouth, and showed a reassuring smile to Mo'er, before turning his head and saying to Rong Xuan: "This trip to Yudu has many twists and turns, and Qu only asked the little prince to protect Mo'er for Qu in times of crisis." ”

"Even if you don't open your mouth, I will protect Mo'er." Rong Xuan's gaze shifted to Mo'er's face and looked at her deeply, and then turned back to Qu Tianlin: "But I think what Qu Cheng said to me is not what he said. ”

"I want to know, what do you mean by crisis?" Mo'er handed the bowl to Morning Frost next to her, interrupting the conversation between the two of them.

In fact, not only Mo'er, but other uninformed people present were surprised by the content of the conversation between Qu Tianlin and Rong Xuan.

"Did you say it, or did I say it?" Rong Xuan asked Qu Tianlin.

"I'll tell you!" Qu Tianlin sighed.

Everyone, including Mo'er, not only stopped what they were doing, but also set their eyes on Qu Tianlin.

"In fact, this time, we not only received a wedding card from the lord of the Yan League, but also received a letter written by the lord of the Yan League."

"What is written in the letter?" Mo'er asked.

The corners of Qu Tianlin's mouth twitched a slight sneer before he slowly spoke: "The content of the letter probably means that the new son-in-law of the Yan Alliance Lord wants to do business and wants to borrow some money from my Linlang City. ”

"How much to borrow?" Although Mo'er asked Qu Tianlin on her lips, she saw the mocking smile on her husband's face, and she guessed that there must be a lot of them.

"Five hundred thousand taels of gold."

As soon as Qu Tianlin's words came out, the uninformed people present couldn't help but gasp, and those who knew couldn't help but sneer.

500,000 taels of gold! Oh my God, what a concept! It is almost the sum of the expenses of all the people of the Great Xia Kingdom for seven years.

Qi Yun suddenly snorted coldly at this time: "Hmph, the four major commercial houses of the Great Xia Kingdom each borrowed 500,000 taels of gold, and this big business can be ranked among the fifth commercial houses!" ”

Mo'er frowned and looked at Qiyun from afar: "It turns out that you also know about this!" ”

Qi Yun couldn't hear that Mo'er was blaming her for not reporting it, and her expression suddenly became innocent: "I thought that the city lord of Qu would tell you, so I didn't say it." ”

"You're right, but next time you don't report it, I'll have to pay a heavy penalty."

"Auntie, don't worry, next time there is any trouble, the little woman will definitely report it as soon as possible." Qi Yun held up three fingers in reassurance.

Mo'er looked at her sworn appearance, so she spared her for the time being, turned her head to look at Qu Tianlin and asked, "Husband, what can you do!" From the conversation between Qu Tianlin and Rong Xuan just now, Mo'er knew that Qu Tianlin did not plan to borrow the 500,000 taels of gold.

Qu Tianlin glanced at Rong Xuan.

Mo'er is not stupid, but she also understands that Qu Tianlin's response may be related to Rong Xuan, so just now Rong Xuan took the initiative to ask him if he had something to say.

Rong Xuan turned around when he saw this, and not only spoke: "If the city lord of Qu wants to listen to my opinion, I suggest that you 'borrow' this 500,000 taels of gold." ”

Suggest he borrow 500,000 taels of gold?!

I have to say that Rong Xuan's suggestion surprised Qu Tianlin very much, but he also understood that Rong Xuan must have his reason since he said so, and not only made a gesture to signal Rong Xuan to continue.

But before Rong Xuan could speak, Qi Yun had already preemptively said: "The old lady of the Jinyu Commercial House among the four major trading houses is a friend of my imperial grandmother's boudoir when she was not out of the cabinet, and even now there are still correspondences. But not too many people in the palace know about this matter, and the stupid mother and daughter just stretched out their hands to the rivers and lakes. But now in order to collect money, they will extend their hands to the four major trading houses, especially the Jinyu Trading Bank, and the Jinyu Trading House will not swallow this secret loss, and will naturally ask them to spit out the money at that time. Of course, the Jinyu Commercial Bank is not stupid, and will not let itself fall into isolation, and when the time comes, they will definitely gather the four major commercial banks together to ask for this loan from the Yan League Master. The people of the rivers and lakes are most afraid of the court, and without the backer behind them, the leader of the martial arts alliance naturally has to obediently spit out the money swallowed in again. ”

500,000 taels of gold is a trivial matter for Qu Tianlin, but he doesn't want to participate in the dispute in the court, and he doesn't want to cause trouble to General Yang in the future because of this matter. Now that I have heard Qi Yun's words, I am also much relieved. It's just that the friendship between Jinyu Trading House and the royal family surprised him very much.

At this time, Rong Xuan said again: "When we go to Yudu on this trip, the identities of me and Qiyun must not be exposed. The city lord of Qu must no longer call us the little prince and the county lord. ”

Qu Tianlin nodded, feeling that this was very necessary, but when he thought of Rong Xuan's surname, he couldn't help but say: "I can follow Mo'er to call the county lord Qiyun, but Rong Xuan, your surname is a national surname, if you call your name directly, it will definitely make people suspicious." In addition, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that Zhuo Qun Zhuo Daxia is the guest of the Jinwang Mansion, and Qu suggested that Zhuo Daxia have to change his appearance. ”

Rong Xuan's eyes burned and glanced at Mo'er, who unconsciously avoided his gaze, Rong Xuan sighed slightly, and then said: "I once traveled to the entire Great Xia Kingdom in search of an important person, and at that time I took a pseudonym Shi Bei, and the city lord of Qu can call me by this name." ”

Shi Bei, Si Mo.

When Mo'er raised her eyes to look at Rong Xuan again, there was a hint of complexity in her eyes.

And Qu Tianlin looked at the two of them, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Feeling that the atmosphere suddenly became gloomy again, Qi Yun saw that this was not good, and hurriedly activated the atmosphere. "Since the title has been decided, everyone is not allowed to shout wrong, but don't go to Chongqing to reveal the stuffing!"

Then, she told Chenshuang, Chunyi, and Xia Ying: "From now on, you must remember that my identity is Mo'er's good friend, and Shi Bei is my fiancé." You want to call me Miss Yun and call him Shi Gongzi, you know?! ”

"Got it, Miss Yun." The three girls of Morning Frost replied with a smile.

That night, the rain became heavier and heavier, and it rained in many parts of the ruined temple.

After everyone discussed, several girls and the injured Qu Tianlin went to sleep in the carriage. Qingfeng and Yan Qing took turns keeping vigil, while Rong Xuan and Xuanlin Zhuoer Qun would spread some dry thatch for the night.

When I woke up the next day, the heavy rain had turned to light rain, and everyone washed and ate before continuing on their way.

However, due to the heavy rain last night, the official road has become muddy and difficult to walk, and it is easy to slip if you are not careful.

For this reason, they had to slow down and hurry.

The road was full of potholes, and Mo'er's bones were crispy, which made her not only miss the various means of transportation in her previous life.

Fortunately, after a few bumpy days, they finally switched to a boat and took the waterway. (To be continued.) )
