Li Che took half a step back, put his hands on her shoulders, and his deep eyes stared straight into her eyes: "What you ask, I can't give it to you now and I can't promise you, but you must promise Lone, when Lone has not married the crown princess and has never let go, you must not fall in love with others, nor can you marry others." ”

Liu Xuan saw the glimmer of light in his black eyes, and suddenly asked: "What you said is a little inappropriate, if one day you ascend the throne and become the emperor, will I still keep this promise?" ”

Li Che lowered his arms and scraped the tip of her nose slightly helplessly: "Then I will add a sentence, I have never married a concubine as a prince alone, if one day I ascend the throne as the emperor and have not been crowned, before I let go, you must not fall in love with others, let alone marry others." ”

Hearing him say this, Liu Xuan nodded in agreement.

The two of them went around and around and finally made their words clear, and their mood was much better, Li Che saw the red and swollen eyes around Liu Xuan's neck and showed reluctance: "But it still hurts?" ”

Liu Xuan followed his gaze, knowing that he was asking about his injury, and immediately shook his head with a smile: "Although you are angry, you have never really been ruthless, it doesn't hurt." ”

Li Che saw her smile, and said slightly helplessly: "This world can make this palace angry so far, you are the first one, you are still calm and safe under the anger of this palace, you are also the first one, you must not deliberately provoke this palace in the future, although this palace does not want to hurt you, but it is inevitable that there will be a mistake under the anger." ”

Liu Xuan naturally won't do this kind of thing again, knowing that his hole cards are enough.

Li Che saw her nod in response, and his face finally returned to normal. He changed his mind and returned to business: "Chen Liang is already on the way to Beijing, your plan is also known in the palace, you can negotiate with him at that time, Hangzhou Chen can not only supply silk, they have a lot of industries in Suzhou and Hangzhou, all walks of life have intervened, you can talk to him carefully, maybe there will be an accident." ”

Liu Xuan nodded in response, and then Liu Xuan talked about the renovation and expansion of the restaurant, and she asked Li Che to inscribe a plaque for the restaurant. Li Che immediately responded. He thought for a moment and then said, "How about a taste of incense?" ”

Liu Xuan was slightly stunned, she knew that this was his silent apology, and it was his compensation for her, she nodded slightly and said, "Okay." ”

Li Che saw that she looked slightly lost. sighed lightly: "She Huanxue is now in the Liao State National Teacher's Mansion. I deliberately let her go in order to find the person behind her. This palace assures you that one day she will be tied up and made to crawl at your feet. At your disposal. ”

Liu Xuan has been looking forward to his promise for a long time, she bowed to him and thanked him solemnly, Li Che gently stroked the hair hanging down between his forehead, put the hair behind her ear, he looked at her with deep eyes, and said softly: "From now on, you and I don't have to say thank you." ”

Liu Xuan nodded in response, and the two talked again, until it was almost time for lunch, Liu Xuan came out of the study.

As soon as she came out of the study, Dongmei greeted her, her face was full of worry, she saw that Liu Xuan's neck was red and swollen, and her voice was choked: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Liu Xuan smiled at her comfortingly, and just wanted to say that he was fine, but he heard Long Yi's cold snort next to him, and Liu Zhiqing said with a smile on the side: "Your young lady is naturally fine, what you should be worried about is His Royal Highness the Prince, and I don't know if the prince of the dignified prison country has been angry with your young lady." ”

He did not take Li Che lightly, so Liu Xuan did not argue with Liu Zhiqing, only raised his eyebrows as a tacit acquiescence, and then comforted Dongmei all the way out of the prince's mansion.

As soon as Liu Xuan left, Liu Zhiqing and Long Yi entered the study, and as soon as they entered the study, they saw that the ground was full of messes, the prince was usually happy and angry, looking at the miserable situation in the study, Liu Zhiqing and Long Yi glanced at each other, and had a new position for Liu Xuan in their hearts, she was able to make the prince angry so far, and the punishment she got was only the redness and swelling of the neck, which was really admirable.

And looking at the look of his master behind the desk, he seemed not only not angry but also in a good mood.

It's a bit of a surprise.

Li Che raised his eyes and saw the expressions of Liu Zhiqing and Long Yi, and coughed lightly: "If you look enough, you will tidy up the study, and today's matter will not be passed on." ”

This matter naturally can't be passed on, Liu Zhiqing and Long Yi understood in their hearts, and immediately began to tidy it up, Liu Zhiqing saw a lonely book lying in the main hall, and his face was sad: "Master, the rest is okay, but this piece of music has been damaged, how can this be good." ”

Li Che glanced at the book that had been torn apart, and wrinkled his eyebrows: "What is said on the chapter?" ”

The master of this twist and turn has not seen it...... Liu Zhiqing hid his surprise in his heart, picked up the fold and flipped through it roughly, it turned out that what was written on the fold was actually to let Li Che expand the backyard, and immediately he laughed, and patted it without hesitation: "The master is wise, so meddling in the affairs of the master's backyard should be treated as divided." so that the ministers can see the anger of their masters. ”

Liu Zhiqing's sycophant was very right this time, and Li Che nodded appreciatively: "Zhiqing hasn't seen him for more than two years, as he has been insightful in the past." ”

Liu Xuan returned to Liu's mansion, and immediately sent someone to inform Empress Xiao that the order could be started, the redness and swelling around her neck had already subsided after taking medicine, but Qiu Ju and Dongmei still let her rest, she was too busy these days, and she couldn't help but feel a little tired after eating, so she went to rest in the name of recuperation.

After two days of such a busy day, someone came to hand over a letter of worship early in the morning.

Liu Xuan opened it and saw that on the dyeing paper of Hangzhou Chen's name Aliang, Liu Xuan couldn't help but show a smile when she saw Chen Liang's name.

Chen Liang handed over the post and said that he would visit after noon, and Liu Xuan waited quietly in the courtyard after lunch, until three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Liang was led into the courtyard by the little servant.

Liu Xuan immediately got up to greet him: "Chen Gongzi hasn't seen him for a long time." ”

Chen Liang's eyes were also full of smiles when he saw her, he looked at Liu Xuan slightly for a moment, and saluted with a smile: "I never thought that in just over two months, Chen Liang actually saw Miss Liu again." ”

Liu Xuan motioned for him to sit down at the stone table, and then said with a smile: "Chen Gongzi and I are already old acquaintances, and we were friends when we were on the boat. Why did Chen Gongzi and I become estranged after two months? ”

Chen Liang sat down on the side and smiled slightly: "If you weren't called by Chen Gongzi and Chen Gongzi, I wouldn't have been able to pay so many courtesies." ”

Liu Xuan raised her eyebrows: "Do you want to call Ah Liang?" ”

Chen Liang's eyebrows jumped heavily, and he waved his hand again and again: "You still spare me, if you know that you call me like this, I am afraid that my beauty will fly like that cooked duck, you call me Chen Liang, I call you Liu Xuan." ”

Liu Xuan nodded with kindness, and then asked with some curiosity: "Why don't you have a hundred years of Chen's family, what kind of errand even you call it a beautiful difference?" ”

Chen Liang has nothing to hide from Liu Xuan about this. And he knew it all too well. It was precisely because of Liu Xuan's relationship that it was his turn, he took the tea on the Dongmei ground, and then said to Liu Xuan with a smile: "This errand is not said to be me, that is, anyone who accepts it will call it a beautiful difference." ”

Seeing the increasingly curious look on Liu Xuan's face. Chen Liang finally stopped selling Guanzi. He opened his mouth and said only one word: "Salt!" ”

It turned out to be salt! No wonder Chen Liang is so happy!

Seeing Liu Xuan, it was clear. Chen Liang smiled and said, "His Royal Highness gave me the right to sell official salt for one year, do you think this is considered a beauty difference?" ”

Liu Xuan nodded: "It's really a beautiful difference, and it can't be compared with what I'm trying to discuss." ”

Liu Xuan lives here, and the prince told him. It is also the prince's intention to let him visit Liu Xuan, no matter what the prince only talked about his heart at the beginning, no matter what Liu Xuan was looking for him, as long as it does not damage the Chen family, Chen Liang will also respond: "You might as well say it directly." ”

"Then I'll be blunt." Liu Xuan smiled: "I know that the Chen family has a silk industry, and I can't hide that I have a shop in my hand that is extremely short of silk, and Hangzhou silk is the most among the silk, I think you can supply silk for my shop for a long time, as for the price, although I will not treat you badly, but I will not give too high, are you willing?" ”

"It's such a trifle." Chen Liang didn't care much and said: "I will provide you with silk, as for the money and silver, you can give some small profits, but although the Chen family has a silk industry, it is not rich, if you need a lot of silk, I am afraid that you will have to find someone else." ”

Listening to Chen Liang's words, Liu Xuan's heart moved: "Hang Silk produces very few tributes, but according to your words, it can be supplied in large quantities?" ”

Chen Liang smiled and nodded: "You don't know, the reason why there are very few rumors about Hangzhou silk is that Hangzhou merchants deliberately do it, Hangzhou silk actually produces a lot, but these Hangzhou merchants sell silk to various places, and the amount of money that can be shared in each place is less when the stall is large, so Hangzhou merchants deliberately release rumors, Hangzhou silk produces very little, and Hangzhou merchants deliberately reduce production in order to make this statement true, so this Hangzhou silk has today's general sky-high price." ”

This news made Liu Xuan extremely excited, Xiao Gong once said that the nobles in Beijing, especially the female dependents, like to wear brocade because they do not want to wear inferior silk, if she can look at the supply of Hangzhou silk, and reduce the price of Hangzhou silk......

The more Liu Xuan thought about it, the happier she became, and she hurriedly asked, "I don't know who can supply it in large quantities?" ”

"You've seen this man, too." Chen Liang said: "Do you remember when you were on the boat, there was a woman named Yin Ruo who fought with you?" Her father's name is Yin Shi, the largest silk merchant in Hangzhou, and you have seen that Yin Shi, who once let his concubine perform for everyone's amusement. ”

As soon as he said this, Liu Xuan immediately remembered that the rich middle-aged man who was sitting not far from her hand that day was indeed the richest businessman in Hangzhou, and he never imagined that one day she would still deal with this person.

When Chen Liang saw Liu Xuan's expression, he knew that she had already remembered Yin Shi's person, and said with a smile: "After I go back, I will let people transport Chen's silk first, as for Yin Shi's matter, I will pull the strings for you, I believe that there will be good news soon, but Yin Shi is an authentic businessman, you can't lower the price too hard." ”

Liu Xuan heard that he was willing to pull the strings, and immediately smiled gratefully: "I am also a businessman, this matter should be clear, you can tell Yin Shi that cooperating with me will only be better than before." ”

Seeing the confidence in Liu Xuan's eyes, Chen Liang couldn't help but be interested in her plan, and immediately asked her about her plans.

Liu Xuan did not hide from him bluntly: "When I was in Hangzhou, I saw many people wearing silk, and when I entered Beijing, I found that even the nobles only wore brocade, and after careful questioning, I found that it was not that they didn't like silk, but because they didn't want to wear inferior silk, but Hangzhou silk was too expensive, even the nobles couldn't afford it, if I could replace the brocade cloth with Hangzhou silk, I didn't need to say that you should also know what would happen." ”

Chen Liang's eyes suddenly brightened after hearing this, and after thinking carefully, he nodded frequently: "If it can really be replaced, this prospect is ......" He thought for a while and suddenly smiled: "It seems that after going back this time, I need to vigorously expand the silk industry, once silk prevails in the capital, all places will inevitably follow suit." ”

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded, and then winked at him with a sly expression: "If I let silk flourish in Beijing, do you think you should give me some benefits?" ”

Chen Liang smiled and pretended to sigh: "I never thought you were so shrewd, let's say, what do you want to tell me about this news?" ”

Liu Xuan blinked and waved her hand, looking understated: "Little things, small things, just change your promise." ”

Chen Liang smiled and sighed: "I have been on His Highness's boat, and now we can be said to be grasshoppers on a rope, and now I don't say that it is a promise, but it is a thousand promises that no longer need to be said, why do you bother to mention this matter alone." ”

Liu Xuan tilted her head and thought about it, it was true, so she changed her words and said: "It's better like this, if you open a new silk industry, you can get a piece of my pie." ”

Chen Liang thought for a while and nodded: "This matter is feasible, you can contribute a share of money and silver to expand the silk industry, and when you see a profit, you can get a profit, so you can see how it is." ”

This is naturally good, the two discussed how to let Yin Shi supply silk at the lowest price, and after discussing Chen Liang, he said goodbye, Liu Xuan sent him outside the house, thought about it and asked: "I heard that the Chen family is quite famous in Suzhou and Hangzhou, I don't know which industries of the Chen family are the most abundant?" ”

Chen Liang thought for a while and replied: "Suzhou and Hangzhou are the land of fish and rice, naturally these industries are the most abundant, and there have been many literati in Suzhou and Hangzhou since ancient times, followed by some ink, paper, inkstone, and silk restaurants." ”

Liu Xuan knew what to expect, so she didn't say anything more and sent Chen Liang into the carriage.

Seeing Chen Liang's carriage drifting away, Liu Xuan turned around and prepared to go home, when she just took a step when she heard someone behind her calling: "Miss Liu, please stay." ”

Liu Xuan turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a green shirt walking towards her, Liu Xuan confirmed that she had never seen this person, and immediately frowned slightly suspiciously and asked, "I don't know if Mr. is calling me?" ”

The middle-aged man walked two steps to her, looked her up and down, and then nodded: "Yes, it's the girl." He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Xuan, saying, "This is a letter from my family to the girl." ”

With the title of Shizi, Liu Xuan only knew Deng Yu, so he immediately received the letter and saluted the middle-aged man: "It is actually Mr. Ning Wangfu, Liu Xuan is polite, thank you Mr. for coming to deliver the message." (To be continued......)
