"Don't worry. If it is for the sake of reforming the imperial examination, the old man is willing to take the lead, even if he is broken. Xie Lun is not old-hearted, and immediately set up bold ambitions.

"Duke Xie must not talk lightly about life and death, you must know that only when you famous Confucians are here, the world's scholars and this king will have some confidence." Zhao Mu arched his hand towards Xie Lun again.

The old man and the 1,260 students in the Sichuan and Su areas assured the prince that as long as the imperial court restored the imperial examination system, Sichuan Su would respond positively and serve the country loyally. The prince of Weirui is the first to look forward! Xie Lun once again let out his bold words.

"Good, good! With Xie Gong's words, Xiao Wang can give it a go. Zhao Mu nodded with satisfaction, he tried his best to make friends with Xie Lun this time, isn't that what he was waiting for!

When Zhao Mu came out of the teahouse, the snow had already covered Suzhou City, and even the streets where pedestrians were constantly paved with a layer of white.

"Lord Wang, the third son of the Rong family has already settled in the Jin Chamber of Commerce at this time." The servant who was sent out to keep an eye on Rong Zhao hurried over from across the street and whispered back beside Zhao Mu.

"Jin Chamber of Commerce?" Zhao Mu frowned hesitantly, "What is he going to do there?" ”

"I inquired a little, it was Mrs. Jingxi Hou who wanted to pawn some jewelry for Concubine Yue. felt that Xiliangcheng did not have a good price, so he asked the third prince to bring it to Suzhou City as a pawn...... However, this Rong Gongzi is also quite interesting, he did not go directly to the pawn shop but specifically inquired about the jewelry merchants who came to Beijing, presumably planning to sell them for a better price. ”

Zhao Mu couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "I just think this little guy isn't as simple as it seems!" As expected. Just look at this careful eye full of economy, you can see that he is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The servant did not dare to say more, but smiled. Zhao Mu was thoughtful, silent for a moment, and then smiled: "Then again, a jewelry merchant from the capital...... Isn't that the king? ”

"What does the prince want to ......?" The servant asked tentatively.

"Well, let's go, take this king to have a look." Zhao Mu said and got into an inconspicuous carriage.

Jin Chamber of Commerce, as the name suggests, is a hall set up by Jin merchants in Suzhou, in the name of Jin merchants, but it is not only Jin merchants can stay and live, it is still a profit-oriented inn. It's just that Rong Zhao has been frequented here since he was a child because the Ye family was born in the western part of Jinxi, so he is familiar with the owner of the shopkeeper here, so he will live here when he comes to Suzhou.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mei Ruo asked the store for a few small dishes and a few baskets of mutton buns with thin skin and big fillings, and after the master and servant gathered at a table to eat and drink, the housekeepers were responsible for the perimeter protection, and Mei Ruo waited for Rong Zhao to lean on the kang and drink Pu'er tea and chat.

Someone was talking outside, and the shepherd dog lying next to Rong Zhao suddenly stood up and looked out the window vigilantly.

"Who is it?" Mei Ruo got up and went out and asked the entourage outside.

"Please tell Mr. Rong that the old man is visiting." Rui Wang Zhao Mulang said.

In the house, Rong Zhao had already heard Zhao Mu's voice, so he frowned and touched the top of the sheepdog's head, and sighed: "Blood, why do you say this person is ghostly?" ”

The shepherd dog tilted his head and licked Rong Zhao's hand, making a whining sound, like a coquettish.

"Alas!" Rong Zhao sighed lightly and got up to get off the kang, and when he arrived at the door, Zhao Mu had already entered the door, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I've seen the prince." I don't know what important official business the prince came to visit in the middle of the night? ”

Zhao Muwen smiled gently: "Hehe...... Rong Gongzi doesn't have to be nervous, even if he has any official business, it won't be the turn of this king to come here to talk to you! It's just a coincidence that I came to ask for a cup of tea. I also hope that Gongzi Rong will not dislike this king and be abrupt. ”

"Where to say! The prince is a nobleman, and he can't be invited on weekdays. I'm afraid that there is no good tea in this vulgar restaurant, and it will dislike the prince. Rong Zhao was polite on his lips, but he secretly scolded you in his heart for coming here, and Lao Tzu can't drive you out!

"It doesn't matter! Tea is not important, it is good for people who drink tea together to fall in love. Zhao Mu smiled like a spring breeze, and even the heavy snow outside was about to be melted by him.

Rong Zhao turned sideways to invite Zhao Mu in, and invited him to take a seat, and instructed Mei Ruo: "Go and ask the shopkeeper for a pot of good tea and refreshments." Then I ordered my son to have distinguished guests here, and idlers were not allowed to approach. ”

"Yes, the slave knows." Mei Ruo agreed and turned to go down, and after a while, she came in with a pot of rose pu'er and five-colored dried fruits.

Rong Zhao poured Zhao Mu a cup of tea with his own hands and served it with both hands, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, please." ”

Zhao Mu took the tea and sniffed the fragrance of the tea, but he was not in a hurry to drink it, he only smiled and looked at Rong Zhao twice, and said: "Young Master Rong is really a blessing, this little lady today is even more graceful and moving than the one on the grassland that day." ”

"The prince is talking about her?" Rong Zhao glanced at Mei Ruo, who was standing next to him, and said with a smile: "She is the person my mother has chosen for me to serve by my side since I was a child, Rong Zhao has been lazy since she was a child, and she is used to stretching out her hands to eat to open her mouth, so this girl follows me wherever she goes." Today, it made the prince laugh. ”

"This difference in words! It's too late for this king to envy his son's Yanfu, how can he say that he is laughing? Zhao Mu put down the teacup with a smile, but reached out and pinched a peanut and gently pinched it, twisted the red skin and put it in his mouth to chew silently.

"The prince is laughing, but he can only survive by relying on his father and brother, you have great ambitions, and naturally you disdain to eat with me and wait for death." Rong Zhao said, lowered his head and gently blew the end of the tea, tasted half a sip of tea, and sighed: "Hmm! This tea is good! It's a pity that the prince doesn't taste it. ”

"Really? Since Rong Gongzi said that it was good, then the king must taste it. Zhao Mu said, picked up the cup of tea, took a sip gently, and praised: "Hmm! The authentic Yundian old Pu'er has been hidden for at least seven or eight years. I didn't think that I could drink such a good tea here, it seems that if I want to taste good things in Suzhou, I have to follow Rong Gongzi. ”

"Hehe, is this a joke, Lord Wang. What good things can be in this backwoods? Rong Zhaogan laughed twice, and also grabbed a few peanuts and peeled them in his hand.

"Don't get me wrong. Thinking that life is too short, it is also a blessing to be able to enjoy it in time! Zhao Mu said with a smile.

"Since the prince said so, then I will take it seriously." Rong Zhao said, throwing a peanut into his mouth and chewing it without grace.

Zhao Mu looked at the young man in front of him through the light, and saw that he was obviously a handsome and beautiful face but had a pair of wanton and unflamboyant eyes. If he reined in the unruly spirit of this body, he would also be an elegant son! Zhao Mu sighed secretly.
