The county lord of Nancheng opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and from the conversation between his brother and the third girl of Zongzheng, he knew that the two were familiar with each other, and they did not shy away from anything. Hehe, I have to ask my grandmother for a reward when I go back!

Pei Junshao sat at the top, Zong Zhengke sat down, and Nancheng County was in the center. The three of them went upstairs to the Tianzi No. 1 private room for breakfast. The girls are busy, washing dishes and other things for the masters, coming and going as lightly as butterflies wearing flowers.

For a while, the special breakfast of Wangjianglou such as cakes, soup soup, and rice porridge was placed on the table, and the three of them ate with chopsticks. After the silent meal, the girls removed the remaining meals, made tea according to the preferences of their own children, and then retreated to have breakfast by themselves.

The county lord of Nancheng had a bone-chilled eye, looked at Zong Zhengke, who looked at his calm demeanor, and then looked at his cousin who was as immobile as a mountain, his heart was like a hundred claws, and he really wanted to ask the fourth brother what he invited the third girl of Zongzheng to breakfast in his name in the morning. But she knew that she was a witness today, so that there would be no rumors outside.

Suddenly, Pei Junshao and Zong Zhengke opened their mouths together, but they only said one word and stopped talking, and they laughed together. The county lord of Nancheng became more and more curious, and he sincerely felt that the third girl and cousin of Zongzheng were really "heart-to-heart". Alas, why did the three girls have to be eighteen years old to leave the cabinet?

After a while, Pei Junshao spoke again: "Ah Ke, I intend to make a deal with you, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

Zong Zheng bowed his head and said slowly: "Let's talk about it first." ”

Pei Junshao did not avoid the county lord of Nancheng, and said in a low voice: "Before I get down to business, I have to say sorry to Lord Zongzheng on behalf of my grandfather." Grandfather, he has nothing to do, and he has dragged Master Zongzheng into trouble, so please forgive me. ”

The county lord of Nancheng laughed twice, and quickly lowered his head, holding a cup of tea in both hands, and seemed to be intoxicated to smell the fragrance of tea.

Zong Zhengke shook his head and said with a smile: "You are too careful, and grandfather may not necessarily blame Master Ma." Even if he doesn't like trouble in his heart, but the horse master is kind, and his grandfather still knows. ”

"That's good!" Pei Junshao breathed a sigh of relief. He asked bluntly, "Do you want to buy the members of the corundum mine in Ningyuan Mansion?" ”

When he said this, was he suing himself that the Pei family had taken a fancy to the corundum mine in the hands of the king of Yuyan County? Zong Zhengke frowned slightly and said, "I have no intention of this. IMHO. Ningyuan Mansion is too far away from Yuchuan Mansion and too close to the Golden Horde, and it may take a lot of unnecessary effort to set up an estate there. ”

With the power of the eldest princess of Qinghe and the Pei family, there is no need to buy property so far away. And the patriarch is clear. Several mines in the hands of the king of Yuyan no longer produce corundum after three or five years.

Pei Junshao unfolded the folding fan, shook it lightly a few times, and said, "After my grandmother's birthday banquet, my little uncle will seek an official." I plan to let him go to Ningyuan Mansion and fight a few battles with the wolf cavalry of the Golden Horde, and the military merits will naturally come, and it is logical to buy an industry there. ”

Zong Zhengke lowered his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said: "An Zhi, since you have such a plan, I can't persuade you again." Just a little. I want to buy a mine, and don't fight the idea of those places in the hands of the king of Yuyan County. As far as I know, those mines have been in operation for at least twenty years. ”

Pei Junshao said with a smile: "I know this, my goal is ......," he paused, "These are the two mines that the Sun family has secretly placed in recent years. ”

Zong Zhengke sighed secretly, and sure enough, he still came. In the previous life, the Pei family also seized two corundum mines in Ningyuan Mansion from the Sun family. So much so that after Pei Junshao went to study at the Jingting Academy of the Great Qi Empire, the death of the eldest princess of Qinghe was inseparable from the Sun family.

Seeing that Zong Zhengke was silent, there was still disapproval between his eyebrows. Pei Junshao's heart moved slightly, and he asked softly: "But there is still something wrong?" ”

Zong Zhengke said solemnly: "Why do you want to seize the Sun family's property? I thought you weren't one of those greedy for money. The Pei family is not short of these two properties. The county lord of Nancheng also looked puzzled and nodded again and again.

Pei Junshao suddenly sneered twice. The tone was also calm, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Do you know that the king of Yuyan County and the Sun family sold the corundum rock mined to the Golden Horde to build the city wall?" I'm not for money, but I just don't want to cheapen those wolf-hearted people! ”

I see! Zong Zhengke suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the lord of Zhongxing in his previous life had conquered the Golden Horde several times, and always returned under its strong walls. There is such an internal reason for this. In this way, the Sun family's behavior as an enemy must no longer be tolerated.

Anyway, the Golden Horde is also a mortal enemy of Zong Zhengke, and she will always burn the steppe to the point that there is not a single grass left, so naturally she cannot afford to build a high wall to defend against foreign enemies. She nodded and said, "If that's the case, you can do it." If you have any needs, just let me know. ”

"If you don't fight with me, I will accept your kindness." Pei Junshao said calmly, "I know that corundum rock is also a good material for building temples. It's not as good as this, you take a few mines in the Yuyan County Wangfu, and it's always a lot of money. ”

Zong Zhengke's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "That's fine." If His Holiness wants to build a temple in the future, there will be no ore produced there, and then you will provide corundum? ”

Pei Junshao smiled slightly and nodded in agreement: "Okay!" ”

There was no need to say anything, the two stretched out their palms at the same time. The palms touched each other and there was a crisp sound. The county lord of Nancheng couldn't help but sigh again, why did the third sister have to be eighteen years old to get married.

Looking at the sad face of the county lord of Nancheng, Pei Junshao and Zong Zhengke looked at each other and smiled, each of them understood what this little sister was thinking. Pei Junshao chuckled and said, "Ling Lan, I received a letter from Bo Zhan a few days ago, and he will arrive tomorrow at the latest." ”

Nancheng County Lord Pei Linglan's apricot eyes suddenly flashed with a strange brilliance, her little face flushed, and she shouted happily: "Really? Will you be able to see Brother Bo Zhan tomorrow? ”

Pei Junshao nodded with a smile, and said to Zong Zhengke: "The person I am talking about is my best friend, and you are a close relative. His name is Bozhan, and his name is Xiao Pengju, who should be your cousin. ”

Zong Zhengke was stunned, she had almost no memory of Mrs. Xiao's mother's house in her mind. Maybe the original Zong Zhengke was too young, even if he had dealings with his grandfather's family, he forgot about it. I really didn't expect to hear the name of my cousin from Pei Junshao's mouth today.

Saying goodbye to the Pei family brothers and sisters, Zong Zhengke returned home, found the Xu family and asked, "Does my grandfather's family have a cousin of Pengju?" ”

Xu Shi was very surprised, and immediately replied, "Yes." Your cousin is also the only uncle, Mr. Xiao Jiu, although he is your mother's younger brother, but the eldest son is three years older than you, which is what you call Young Master Pengju. ”

Zong Zhengke said leisurely: "I'm afraid this cousin Pengju will arrive at Yuchuan Mansion tomorrow." He came, for what?! ”

Xu Shi sighed, both surprised and delighted, and suddenly burst into tears, and sobbed: "Girl, girl, the slave has been looking forward to who the old lady can let come to see you for so many years." Young Master Pengju's trip must have been approved by the old lady, and he must have heard that you had finished your cultivation and made a special trip to visit you! ”

"I hope so!" But Zong Zhengke felt that things would not be so simple. She also remembered that in her previous life, she went to Jingting Academy with Pei Junshao to study, wasn't it this Pengju cousin! (To be continued.) )
