"I guessed, you had a mutually beneficial business with the Yun family earlier, and now that the old marquis has passed away, do you still want a piece of the pie?"

"Divide the soup?" , Yue's eyes blinked, and Di Lian shook her head lightly with an innocent expression, "It's not that Di Lian wants to take advantage of the Yunhou Mansion, but that the old marquis wants to give it to Di Lian." ”

An Di smiled, glanced at her with a smile, and personally refilled the cup with tea, "You girl has a lotus tongue, the dead can be said to be alive, and the black can be said to be white, which is really greedy to take advantage of not enough." ”

Di Lian was noncommittal, and lowered her eyes and said, "This is His Majesty's evaluation of Di Lian, then His Majesty thinks that the gold mine, Di Lian can be in charge?" ”

His face could not hide his helplessness, Emperor An shook his head, sighed and connived, "Since you are keen on business, I will talk to you about business, in the past, the Yun family was in charge of this gold mine, and the silver handed over to the treasury every year was ninety percent, excluding the wages of laborers and the cost of mining, this is already the limit, if you are in charge, how much benefit can you add to me?" ”

Talking about money? Tillian squinted, ninety percent is still not satisfied, do you want to do it for nothing? Xiahou Xi, you are really ambitious, but if you want to take advantage of me, don't even think about it.

Seeing her drooping her eyes and contemplative and silent, An Di smiled lightly and waited, not to disturb her, but to watch her movements without blinking.

After a while, Di Lian raised her eyes and said with a shallow smile, "Your Majesty, everyone knows that Di Lian loves money and is obsessed, not only does Majesty not let me earn money, but also digs more from me, doesn't it cost me my life?" ”

"Exaggerated!" , Emperor An laughed and pointed at her, and then looked helpless, "I know, how can I make you suffer?" The share of the gold mine income is still divided by ninety-one points, but the beneficiary can no longer be the Yun family, but the name and seal must be regulated in your name. ”

The plain hand under the wide sleeve was slightly clenched, Di Lian looked immobile and shook her head slightly, pretending to be distressed, "Your Majesty, don't embarrass me, these five major gold mines support one-third of the income of the national treasury, such a large industrial regulation is in Di Lian's name, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will not agree, but will attract criticism for Your Majesty." The best way is to still be in the name of the Yun family, and I am in charge with Yun Shili, but rest assured, Di Lian only wants to share it equally with the Yun family, and will not be greedy for His Majesty's silver. ”

"Everything you say makes sense." , Emperor An was helpless, but she was secretly happy that she could think about herself, "Even if you are greedy for ink and my money, I will reward you with everything." ”

Tilian grinned, "Your Majesty's words made Dilian panic, the so-called uselessness is not unacceptable, although Dilian is greedy for money, she will not take it without a way." ”

"Reactive and unsuccessful?" Emperor An smiled slightly, looked at her fixedly, and said, "How can you be rewarded for your contribution to me with just a few dollars, Tilian, but if you ask for something, as long as it does not touch my bottom line, I will allow it." ”

Di Lian lowered her eyes and said with a light smile, "Your Majesty, for the king's ministers should be worried about the king, although Di Lian is a weak woman, she has also been taught by her father since she was a child, and she is loyal to the monarch and patriotism in her heart." It's a matter of duty, not to mention, once you do something, the first thing to do is for Tilian's selfishness, so Your Majesty doesn't have to reward anything. ”

Emperor An looked at her quietly, his eyes were soft, and he was silent for a long time and said, "No matter what you say, I have made up my mind, I hope you will ask me for help in the future, and I will do my best to repay it." ”

I didn't expect him to be so stubborn, Di Lian's heart sank slightly, and there was no fluctuation in her expression, "In this case, Di Lian has thanked His Majesty first." His Majesty is now the king of a country, and it is not good for Tilian to stay for a long time to delay His Majesty, and Dilian retired. ”

Seeing her graceful figure get up and lightly blessed, Emperor An looked in a trance, and said with a half-jaw bow, "You go." ”

Seeing her leaving, Emperor An smiled slightly, stunned for a while, and his dragon eyes flickered warmly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Leaving the palace, Tilian got into the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the carriage was moving, leaning on the carriage and her eyebrows were cold, thinking of the few conversations between Fang Cai and Emperor Rui, she couldn't help but purse her lips slightly.

At this moment, I felt that the carriage stopped suddenly, and a person lifted the curtain and entered, and when the curtain fell, the carriage slowly drove again.

Xie Hengxu lifted his robe and sat down opposite Di Lian, his phoenix eyes staring straight at Di Lian's cold and ice-like eyebrows, and couldn't help frowning, "What happened?" What did 陛xià say? ”

The moon eyes blinked slightly, Di Lian slowly shook her head, lowered her eyes and said, "The matter of the gold mine has been resolved, and Emperor An will not move the mind of the gold mine again." ”

With a shallow sigh, Xie Hengxu leaned over and put her hand in the palm of her hand, "Lian'er, don't do such a risky thing next time." He is now an emperor, and he will not tolerate it every time. “

Tilian bowed her head and gently held his hand, her eyes raised lightly to look at him quietly, and her voice was low, "Zixu, if one day, to the point where you have to disobey the holy decree, will you abandon this prosperous world and wander the world for me." ”

It was rare to see her so calm and serious, Xie Hengxu stared at these glass-like eyes of the clear moon in a daze, and hooked her lips lightly for a while, "I said, as long as you say it, I will do it for you." ”

Tilian smiled lightly, leaned over into his arms, looked at the swaying car window with clear water and waveless eyes, and whispered, "You have to remember what you say." ”

Holding her in his arms, Xie Hengxu smiled like Qinghui and replied in a low voice.

The carriage drove back to the Yunhou Mansion, and Di Lian and Xie Hengxu stepped into the door together, which attracted the attention of many powerful people in the mansion who were still in liuzhi, and walked all the way to the Dian Hall where the coffin was placed, and the stewards of the Yun family inside got up one after another.

Yun Shili came up first, his dark blue peach blossom eyes looked at Di Lian up and down, and then glanced at Xie Hengxu on the side.

Xie Hengxu bowed his head, stepped forward to hold the pillar of incense, bowed deeply three times to the spiritual seat of the old marquis, and offered the incense in the incense tripod with both hands.

Seeing that he had finished doing this, Di Lian smiled lightly, and Song Jue couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Miss Di Lian, what did Your Majesty say about the matter under the jurisdiction of the gold mine?" ”

Qing Qian glanced at him, his gaze fell on Yun Shili's face, and said gently, "Your Majesty has promised me that it will not be under the jurisdiction of the Yun family, and the national taxes paid will be the same as in previous years, so there is no need to mention this matter in the future." ”

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, and bowed down in unison, "Thank you, Miss Tilian." ”

Yun Shili's blue eyes bent slightly when he saw this, these people are all old people who have followed the Yun family for decades, they must be more convinced of Di Lian today, and her status in the Yun family will not be shaken in the future.

"Shili, I have something to say to you, let's go to the study and talk." , Tilian whispered, and then looked at Xie Hengxu who was waiting at the door, "You wait here, I'll be back in a moment." ”

Xie Hengxu's eyes moved slightly, and after all, he bowed his head slightly, and did not want to follow.

The two walked out side by side, along the corridor to the study, seeing that Di Lian did not speak again, Yun Shili couldn't help but glance back at Xie Hengxu who was standing outside the hall.

The clear face could not hide her doubts, and Tilian had something to say, and she never avoided Xie Hengxu. If you want to talk about it this time, it must not be known by Xie Hengxu, thinking about it like this, there is some schadenfreude in my heart.

When he arrived at the study, Yun Shili turned around and closed the door, and saw Di Lian walking leisurely to the table under the south window, looking at the messy rice paper scattered on the table.

Yun Shili approached, these thick ink on the rice paper were the last handwriting of his grandfather before his illness, he did not let people clean up, and it was still at the mercy of the original.

Tilian gently looked at the calligraphy, and said in a low voice, "Today I went to the imperial study, Emperor An was making tea and waiting for me, Shili, he had a distraction for me." ”

Qingjue's face was stunned, and Yun Shili frowned tightly and looked at Di Lian, looking incredulous and annoyed.

With her lips slightly hooked, Tilian raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes were calm, "You see, he is now the emperor, and we can't fight him no matter what." ”

Taking a step forward suddenly, Yun Shili grabbed her wrist, the force was tight, and her gentle peach blossom eyes were as sharp as a knife at the moment.

Di Lian frowned slightly, and then smiled lightly, "Don't worry, I have my own ideas, don't let Zixu know about this." ”

The strength of his hands slowly relaxed, Yun Shili looked at her in a daze, and gently bowed his head for a while.

Yue's eyes drooped slightly, and Di Lian said softly, "There is one more thing, although Emperor An promised not to take back the jurisdiction of the gold mine this time, however, he wants me to divide it with you, and I should accept it, this is just a superficial effort, and I will not share the profits obtained by the gold mine every year." ”

Yun Shili's mood was not on this, he just nodded when he heard the words, and he looked a little absent-minded.

Di Lian saw it in her eyes and continued, "Although this matter has been avoided, those people's thoughts on the Yun family's business will not sink for too long, fortunately, the circulation rights in the South China Sea have been won, I think, should you gradually shift your focus?" ”

Hearing this, Yun Shili raised his head and looked at her with a slight twinkle in his eyes.

Lightly hooked her lips, Tillian said bluntly, "If the Xia Lan Dynasty can't tolerate me anymore, I will go to Starfall to survive, Shili, do you understand what I mean?" ”

She didn't want to hide that she wanted to use the Yun family, nor did she want to leave Yun Shili alone after she left, and she would do what she promised the old marquis.

With blue eyes drooping slightly, Yun Shili gently held up her hand, and wrote slowly, "I understand, I will accompany you"

The moon's eyes were soft, her fingers curled up and held it gently, and Tilian smiled gently, "Thank you." My idea is that I hope you will break up the shops in Starfall, and not divide the banner of one firm into at least four new ones, and then shift the focus of the Yun family one after another. ”

Yun Shili bowed his head, and he never questioned her words.

In the face of such trust, Di Lian only felt moved in her heart, couldn't help lowering her eyes, and hesitated, "There is also my selfishness in this, if there is any case, I have to use Moyu, it may bring great disasters to the Yun family, and this preparation is all to minimize the loss to you, Shili." The moon eyes lifted, and Tillian looked at his gentle and deep blue eyes, "Shili, no matter what, thank you for trusting me so much." ”

Quietly lowering her eyes, Yun Shili's fingertips gently slid into her palm, "You said, we are good friends, you help me at any cost, I will definitely return more"

Tillian smiled, lowering her jaw, "It's a good friend, never the same." ”
