The matter of the Xiangfu Lotus Pond Di Lian's rescue of the grandson of the Marquis of Yun was widely known, and the second day it was spread to everyone, and Di Lian also knew the use of the black jade Pixiu Pei from Xie Hengxu's mouth, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Can you order everyone, including the Yun family's firm, to do anything, just with this jade pendant? Tillian couldn't help smacking her tongue, she was really a blind cat and hit a dead mouse, what kind of luck was this? Compared with the Xie family's pair of mandarin duck pens that can only save lives, this jade pendant looks much more practical.

I was both apprehensive and excited, until the family banquet on the second day, I was also distracted, fantasizing that I could travel the world without worrying about food and clothing with this jade pendant, Tillian's eyes couldn't help but brighten, and she poked the jade-like rice in the bowl uncontrollably.

Everyone raised their eyes to look at her when they heard the voice, but seeing the smile on her beautiful little face, Jiang Luoxiu shook his head helplessly, stretched out his big palm and gently patted the top of Tilian's hair.

"Lian'er, eat well when you eat, how many times has Daddy said that?"

Neck shrunk to avoid her father's palm, Tilian sat up straight and looked at him with a smile, and said tenderly, "Today is the fifteenth, Daddy, can I go to the Rongguo Mansion?" ”

When he brought Di Lian back that year, Jiang Luoxiu and Mrs. Xie promised that they would let Di Lian go back to the Rongguo Mansion to visit on the fifteenth day of each month, and occasionally allow her to stay in the Guogong Mansion for two days. Although Jiang Luoxiu accompanies Di Lian every day in the mansion, he is not in the mansion for a long time, except for Jiang Li who will accompany Di Lian to play in the Zuo Xiang Mansion, there is really nothing interesting, so Di Lian still likes to go to the Xie family, the Xie family has a large number of people, from maternal grandmother and aunt to a few cousins and cousins, especially Xie Hengxu, who is 'like-minded', in short, it is more interesting than the Zuo Xiangfu.

Seeing her expectant, Jiang Luoxiu's thin lips hooked slightly, "Daddy will personally send you over after the next court." ”

Di Lianyue's eyes were clear, and she immediately said, "Daddy go get busy, Xie Hengxu will come to pick me up, and Daddy will come to pick up Lian'er tomorrow afternoon." ”

Jiang Luoxiu raised his eyebrows, looking at her eyes flashing with a cunning look, knowing that this girl was about to be a moth again, but he said, "Oh? Staying overnight? ”

Sakura pursed a well-behaved smile on her lips, and Tilian held her head high and smiled at Jiang Luoxiu to flatter.

Princess Shenghua, who had been listening quietly for a long time, spoke at this time, and her soft voice was a little hesitant, "Isn't Lian'er going back home tonight?" Mother specially ordered the kitchen to prepare the fashionable vegetables in the palace, originally thinking that Lian'er would like it after tasting it. With a worried expression, he glanced at Jiang Luoxiu.

With a slight smile, the moon eyes blinked and looked at Princess Shenghua, Di Lian was silent for a long time, and said softly in a low voice, "I went to visit my grandmother last month, and Lian'er promised her that she would accompany her to the 'Yuanhua Temple' today to repay her wishes." After saying that, he pouted and looked at Jiang Luoxiu with a look of embarrassment.

A smile flashed in his eyes, Jiang Luoxiu reached out and stroked Dilian's little face, looked at Princess Shenghua lightly and said, "Since it is an appointment with my grandmother, the vegetables prepared by the princess, let Lian'er taste them next time." ”

He said this, even if the kitchen had been preparing since last night's wedding banquet, Princess Shenghua had to feel sorry and lowered her eyes in response. Then he raised his eyes and looked at Di Lian, her expression was complicated, no matter how she comforted herself, she still knew that this child was resistant to her, and it was really not easy to get close to her if she continued like this.

After breakfast, Jiang Luoxiu personally sent Di Lian back to the west chamber of Songyuan before going out to the court, Aunt Chen took Jiang Yi and Jiang Li to kowtow to Princess Shenghua and was also acquiesced to leave, and only Princess Shenghua and a few henchmen were left in the main house of Songyuan.

Princess Shenghua's nursing mother, Mama Xun, personally held the tea and served it to her, seeing that her expression was low and complicated, she couldn't help but sigh and whispered, "The princess doesn't have to work so hard, after yesterday's incident with the grandson of Yunhou, we can't treat this Miss Tilian as a three-year-old child, today is just the second day that the princess marries into the door, and the days to come are still long, even if Miss Dilian has a heart, the princess treats her well, she will always understand." ”

Lying on the soft couch with one hand on her forehead, the worry between Princess Shenghua's eyebrows did not dissipate because of her words, and she only whispered quietly.

"Today is the first day of the palace for the new lady, according to the rules, the concubines and children have to kowtow to tea, Aunt Chen and the two concubines are still sensible, but the child. Mama, you see, since she talked like that since yesterday, I know that she doesn't like me, after experiencing the affairs of Yunhou Shisun, this child can't be underestimated, she is still so small, and her mind is so deep. That's it, what the palace cares about the most is that Zuo Xiangye, who has always paid attention to rules and is strict with himself, actually connived at her to disobey the palace like this. ”

Mama Xun frowned, "Does the princess care, Miss Tilian didn't give you tea, nor did she call you 'mother', but Xiangye didn't care about her?" ”

Zhu pursed her lips, Princess Shenghua closed her eyes and sighed, "In the past, I just heard from people, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that in this world, there is such a person as Cun Zài who can let him indulge so wholeheartedly." Xiangye didn't care about her, but in Xiangye's heart, I was afraid that everything this kid did was right. Although she is currently the only concubine, he will give birth to a concubine in the palace one day, and I am afraid that she will not be able to surpass her position in Xiangye's heart. ”

"Now that the princess has fulfilled her wish, she should not be dissatisfied with a child, fortunately, she is just a daughter, as long as the princess treats her with a clear conscience, the princess will not be able to make a mistake."

When Xie Hengxu walked into the gate of the Songyuan Courtyard to the main house to greet Princess Shenghua, Tilian took the green basket and waited under the corridor, and when she saw him come out, she beckoned and jumped to the courtyard gate.

Out of the pine garden, Xie Hengxu glanced back, and could vaguely see the two female officials standing outside the door of the main house looking at them, and couldn't help but smile and lean over and ask Tilian, "Don't say hello, isn't it too obvious, she is also the emperor's favorite princess, you are not so willful, right?" ”

Playing with the Moyu Pixiu in her hand, Tilian rolled her eyes, absentmindedly and casually perfunctory, "This girl is rich now, but she is willful, what do you want me to do?" After saying that, he tilted his head, raised the jade pendant in his hand with a smile, and said word by word, "I don't care who she is, I'm happy to buy it with a thousand dollars." ”

Xie Hengxu shook his head with a smile, and then his sunny-style signature smile appeared, and his teeth were dazzling.

"I know that your girl has bad water in her stomach again, but my grandmother said that we will have to leave in the afternoon at the latest, and we can't delay it too long."

"Whoever knows me, my grandmother is too." , Tilian shook her head and said with a stern expression, and then hooked her finger at Xie Hengxu.

Now that the two of them have arrived at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xie Hengxu glanced left and right, lifted his robe and squatted down, and leaned over his ears to listen to her.

Di Lian blocked her hands and muttered a few words quietly, Xie Hengxu raised her thick eyebrows, her face was strange and her eyes were shining, and then she picked her up and stepped out of the door, neatly stuffed into the carriage, and turned over on the horse by herself.

Qinghuan looked at the appearance of the two of them from the side, and couldn't help but show helplessness, and quickly followed and climbed into the carriage.

Looking at the little master who was leaning on the carriage with his eyes closed, Qing Huo smiled bitterly, "Where is the young master Hexu going again, can't you take the slave with you this time?" ", I knew that it was a vain question, but I still asked, the ghostly little master of my own family, and the little devil of the mixed world, who was known to everyone in Kyoto, got together, and there was nothing good every time.

Di Lian opened one eye and looked at Qinghu smartly, "I'll get out of the car when I get to Baihu Street in a while, you go back to Rongguo Mansion first, if someone asks, you still just say you don't know." ”

When they arrived at the entrance of an alley on Baihu Street, Xie Hengxu turned over and dismounted, lifted the curtain of the car and hugged Di Lian down, waved his hand to signal the driver to drive the car away, and the two turned around and disappeared into the alley.

An hour later, Xie Hengxu took Di Lian back to the Rongguo Mansion, at that time, in the Yunhou Mansion in the north of the city, one of the four major stewards of the Yun family, Liang Bo, hurriedly walked through the winding corridor to the study surrounded by bamboo forests, knocked on the door and waited, and pushed the door in when he heard the answer.

The study room is spacious, covered with a Fanbang carpet with a purple Guman rattan pattern, and a white jade pen wash with a large grinding plate of half people is placed in the center, and the brush wash is a pattern of ink and carp, and several one-person high bookshelves are arranged on all sides of the study, during which each compartment is stacked neatly stacked with stacks of blue books, which are the streamlined accounts of each shop in various parts of the Yun family, which will be updated every year.

His eyes fell on the fifty-year-old man standing behind the desk under the south window, wielding pen and ink and calligraphy leisurely, and the scale man bowed forward, his voice slightly hoarse and low.

"Back to the Hou Ye, half an hour ago, someone took Moyu to the trading house on Baihu Street and took away five thousand taels of silver, plus twenty taels of gold ingots."

The wild cursive script full of handwriting turned on the rice paper, and Yun Hou held the purple bead pen to admire his calligraphy, his face did not fluctuate, but the tone could not hide his smile.

"Five thousand taels of silver, twenty taels of gold ingots, these can almost buy one-third of the medium-sized shops on Baihu Street, that girl takes other people's silver for nothing, but she is not soft at all."

Hearing this, Uncle Liang lowered his eyebrows and bowed slightly, but did not speak.

As if very satisfied, Yun Hou put down the purple bead pen, raised his eyes to look at the bookshelf to the north, and said with a smile, "It's really interesting, you think so too, don't you?" ”

The room was silent, Uncle Liang looked sideways, but saw a slender and thin young man in Xuanyi slowly stepping out from behind the bookshelf, describing the white ink and blue eyes of the Qing Dynasty as quiet and Xi, not who his own grandson was.

Holding a few account books in his arms, he slowly walked to the table, and the gentle and beautiful boy looked at Yun Hou's handwriting with a calm expression.

Seeing this, Yun Hou laughed heavily, raised his eyebrows and asked him, "Grandfather's cursive hand, compared with that girl's cursive hand, is it a little more majestic and less sharp?" ”

The petal-like lips are lightly hooked, Yun Shili lowered his eyes, and gently bowed his head.

Yun Hou smiled gently, looked at Liang Bodao, "You go, if there is any movement in that girl, report it immediately, and you don't need to inquire about anything else, everything you can do will satisfy her." ”

Uncle Liang pursed his lips and frowned, finally made a deep reply, took a few steps back and turned to leave.

"It's been many years, and my grandfather hasn't met someone like this again." , The line of sight was withdrawn from the closed door, and Yun Hou looked at Yun Shili gently, "Shili, let's wait and see." ”

With a shallow smile, Yun Shili lowered his eyelashes, gently opened the account book and looked silently.

Mrs. Xie believed in Buddhism, and Tilian followed her to the 'Yuanhua Temple' outside the city no less than one hand, this journey was bumpy and long, and often less than half of Tilian couldn't stand it and climbed out of the carriage and pestered Xie Hengxu to ride a horse.

Xie Hengyuan rode in front, occasionally looking back at his third brother and Di Lian who were muttering on horseback and muttering something in dispute, and couldn't help but fluctuate in his eyes, this eccentric girl and the third brother have always been close, if the two are together, they must have a very tacit understanding, although there have been many bickering in the past, but the depth of the feelings during this period is incomparable to others. Even her uncle, who is a father, doesn't know as much about Tilian's secrets as her third brother.

Xie Hengyuan's thoughts, Di Lian and Xie Hengxu, naturally didn't know, and the two of them were arguing over the matter of handling the silver they had picked up from the Yun family's business.

Looking ahead, Xie Hengxu was still smiling like a rising sun, and whispered without moving between his lips, "What's wrong with the business of the gambling house, making money every day, that is our hard work for more than a year, seeing that it is on the right track, the capital has just been taken back is the start of making money, you are crazy to change it!" ”

Tilian leaned on his arms and looked at the trees and scenery with a relaxed expression, and her clear eyes could not hide her impatience.

"Didn't you say at first that it was okay, but it was just a practice, and you could get rid of it at any time? Now you can't give up for a little profit? Xie Hengxu, you just have a little bit of interest! ”

Grinding her back molars, Xie Hengxufeng squinted with a smile and lowered her eyes, "What do I care about?" During this period, I held it up with one hand, are you cutting my flesh? In your words, you are contemptuous of the blood and sweat of the working people! ”

Speechless, she rolled her eyes, and Tillian looked up at him, "You and I have known each other for so long, can't you trust me?" ”

Smiling all the time, Xie Hengxu said helplessly, "It's not that I can't believe you, but you have a sudden sum today, I thought you took the silver to expand the gambling house, who knew that you would even transfer the gambling house out, even if I agreed, this gambling house is now in Kyoto Fang No one can compare, that is more than 10,000 taels per month, if it changes hands to others, there are 30,000 taels, except for the Yun family, I am afraid that no businessman can get this amount, what are you doing back and forth for?" Also, plus the three thousand five hundred taels, forty thousand taels of silver, and the twenty taels of gold ingots you got before, such a large amount, even if it is my uncle's five-year income, it is not so much. At this point, Xie Hengxu let out a long sigh, and Xie Hengxu looked at Di Lian with a rare expression, "You sue me, what are you going to use this money for." ”

Sakura's lips pursed slightly, and Tillian frowned in contemplation, seeing that he looked like he wouldn't stop without making it clear, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Who said that I was going to transfer the gambling house to the Yun family, I won't do such a cheap thing for others."

The eyebrows were slanted, "Otherwise, who else." At this point, Xie Hengxu's phoenix eyes glared, "You want me to do business with the third prince?" You are crazy?! ”

Rubbing his ears impatiently, Tilian calmed down and explained to him in detail, "Since I decided to change hands, I have no interest in knowing who I transfer it to, as long as I give me the silver, but I now have the Yun family's Moyu Pixiu Pei, since I have taken money from their business, there must be no reason to repay them for a shop, no merit, this money is borrowed by me, and I will naturally return it if I have the ability in the future." Since the third prince sent someone to investigate, you instructed the people in the gambling house to sell him as much as he could raise at a starting price of 30,000 taels to sell to him, and never reveal that the gambling house has a relationship with you, so as not to cause trouble. ”

His eyebrows stretched, looking at her faint expression, Xie Hengxu asked, "Then where are you going to use this money?" ”

The moon's eyes were not shocked, and Tilian said word by word, "Pave the way back." ”

The phoenix's eyes narrowed, and Xie Hengxu looked confused, "Pave the back road, what to pave well." After a pause, looking at Tillian's expression was rarely deepened.

After a while, Xie Hengxu said, "I know, I will arrange the transfer of things, and what will I do next." ”

"Buying and selling are inseparable from people, people need food, clothing, housing and transportation, and people take food as the sky." , the moon eyes bent, Di Lian glanced at Xie Hengxu, "Let's start with 'food', and although the gambling house can be sold, the people in it are all carefully selected, if it can be poached by others, it's just that, those that can't be poached you bother, that road still has to be paved by trustworthy people." ”

"In short, you just use your mouth, but pity me for your hard life." , Xie Hengxu grinned and floated out a sentence leisurely.

Glaring at him, Tillian didn't bother to bother with him.
