- Hearing Wang Chi talk about specific things, Ruan Luo finally collected his thoughts, stopped thinking about anything else, and carefully pondered the issues mentioned in Wang Chi's words.

After pondering for a moment, Ruan Luo asked, "How does it compare to the Northland?"

Ruan Luo only asked one sentence, Wang Chi immediately understood what he meant, smiled slightly, and said: "Of course I know that you have been in Xiaoliang Country for a few years, and it is not a harmonious and beautiful place, but the harsh terrain of Qingchuan is different from the bitter cold of Northern Xinjiang."

The embarrassment caused by being directly guessed so quickly flashed, and then a novel look gradually appeared in Ruan Luo's eyes.

"It's not a small topic." Wang Chi caught the curiosity in Ruan Luo's eyes, and another thought arose in his heart, and he smiled slightly, "Why don't you find a relaxing place to go, let's sit down and talk slowly?"

Although Wang Chi is the monarch of a country, he is busy with state affairs all day long, and he lives in the palace and rarely goes out, so although he is familiar with the construction that happens in Kyoto every day, if he wants to find it specifically, perhaps it is better to lie in the corner of the wall and bask in the sun and look forward to the strange of a luxurious life.

Even Ruan Luo is not a person who likes to enjoy, but when it comes to eating, drinking and having fun outside the palace, he is at least more familiar than Wang Chi.

However, the two of them, who are as close as father and son, will finally walk into a small wonton restaurant on Linglong Street after leaving the bookstore, and they are really recommended by Ruan Luo's two bodyguards.

Ruan Luo has a weak constitution and has not been able to drink much. After Wang Chi returned to the palace later, there was a table of folds waiting for him to see, and it was really not suitable to drink. The guards and bodyguards that each of them brought should always keep their heads clear, and they are not prepared to drink. Especially the two bodyguards brought by Ruan Luo, after vaguely guessing Wang Chi's identity, they never dared to relax their spirits, for fear that something would go wrong. You have to bear both risk and responsibility.

Six men who are not suitable for drinking alcohol today finally walked into the small wonton restaurant on Linglong Street together. Originally, I missed the time for lunch, and the business in the wonton restaurant began to fade a little. It won't be heated again until the evening, but with the six of them walking in together. The small wonton restaurant, which occupies a small area, suddenly seems narrow.

The four guards and bodyguards sat at a table, and Ruan Luo and Wang Chi sat at a table. Unlike the diners who sat scattered in the store and were late for lunch, they were ready to have a bowl of wontons to make do with a meal, Ruan Luo's group of six people were fixed on their shoulders, upright and wide-stepped, and as soon as they entered the store, they attracted the attention of the shopkeepers and runners, and soon made those diners can't help but squint carefully.

Of these six people. Except for Ruan Luo, the other five are all equipped with martial arts. The two big inner masters tiger gibbon waist, step by step, introverted, will attract people's attention It is self-evident. Although the kung fu of the two bodyguards is not as good as that of the master of Ouchi, they are hard to practice kung fu, and they are not ordinary people in the folk martial arts.

Since Wang Chi changed his banner to be emperor, although the training of martial arts is not as hard as when he was in northern Xinjiang, he grew up in the bitter and cold climate of the frontier since he was a child, and he immediately ran into the field for more than ten years, and his physique and temperament were polished from head to toe by the wind and sand soldiers. Naturally, it is not a matter of ten years of court life that can be softened and smeared.

As for Ruan Luo, whether it was done intentionally or by nature. He has lived a life as clear as water and calm all year round, so although he is often busy at his desk and labors in the dense digital world like insects and ants, when he is looking at people, his eyes are still as clear as a spring water, and as light as a light rain in late spring in March, which makes people feel friendly and not easy to forget.

Such a group of people seems to be easy to attract attention wherever they go. Therefore, in order to better protect Wang Chi's personal safety, the most suitable place for them should be to find a larger restaurant. Then book a private room and eat quietly behind closed doors.

But they will choose to come here. It's because of Wang Chi.

Finally came out for a trip, but for various reasons, he couldn't enjoy the wine, Wang Chi said that he didn't want to go to any private room that was as closed as a box.

So a bodyguard man quickly thought of the place Linglong Street.

Linglong Street has four exits, four entrances and eight corners, although it is demarcated as a block, but in fact it is like an alley. The houses here are all homestays, and there are few shops, so the wonton restaurant on the street is mostly a neighborhood business. When the meal arrives, the wonton restaurant is very likely to be full, but as soon as the meal is over, the diners disperse quickly, and this kind of surplus and deficiency pattern is simply not like a profitable restaurant opened by a businessman.

In addition, the small restaurants will of course have their own good. Because the source of customers is stable, almost not too worried about the prosperity of business, and the people who come to patronize are familiar neighbors, in addition to eating, paying money These two business things will be repeated more than 100 times a day, and there is a rare casual and warm in the small shop.

While waiting for the hot wontons to be served, Wang Chi and Ruan Luo chatted without a word, and inadvertently, he found a piece of paper exposed in the chopstick basket woven with bamboo strips.

He picked it up with his hand, but saw that it was a paper folded finch, but the quality of the folded finch paper was not good, and it seemed that the finch had lost any spirit.

When Ruan Luo saw this scene, his eyes quickly noticed that there was still some cake powder left on the corner of the wings of the paper bird, and he suddenly smiled and said, "It seems to be the oil paper wrapped in the bean cake, I don't know if this is the work of that naughty child."

Wang Chi did not immediately throw it down because he knew that this was something that a child had played, but held the small paper finch in the palm of his hand, and after looking at the front and back a few times, he said with a smile: "From this little thing, I seem to see a little little wish hidden by a child after repeated chanting.".

[,！ I didn't expect that there was still such an innocent inch in the heart of a monarch, Ruan Luo suddenly became very curious in his heart after listening to Wang Chi's words, and couldn't help but ask: "What is your wish?"

"Another piece of bean cake." Wang Chi gently put the finch folded with oiled paper back on the chopstick basket, "I want a lot of sweet bean cakes."

Wang Chixue spoke in a child's tone, and he was able to learn a seven-eight-point image for a while, and he didn't think that playing like this would have anything to do with his identity, but Ruan Luo, who was sitting on the opposite side, couldn't help but smile and endure it hard.

"Children are always very casual and direct about their own needs." After a short period of playfulness, Wang Chi's tone of speech had returned to normal. His gaze shifted from the paper finch's wings to Ruan Luo's face, and he suddenly asked, "Do you remember what you most wanted to get when you were a child?"

Wang Chi would suddenly ask this sentence, and Ruan Luo suddenly didn't know how to answer. And immediately after, he heard Wang Chi sigh. Then he continued: "I have disobeyed your father's trust and have not taken good care of you...... No, along the way, I have failed more than your father......"

"No, uncle, don't say that, and don't blame yourself." Hearing Wang Chi's words come to this point, Ruan Luo couldn't hold back anymore, he had to say something." The younger generation knows that there has never been a lack of care from you by my side, and that my father's wishes have now been fulfilled by my uncle, and this is the most comforting thing for him."

"Is that enough?" Wang Chi's words seemed to take a sharp turn suddenly, "It's not that you haven't seen what your father left behind."

"This ......" Of course, Ruan Luo had seen the relics left by his father mentioned in Wang Chi's words, in fact, although he almost never mentioned such things on the surface, he valued them more than anyone else. It is also because of this that he knows better than anyone but Wang Chi when every inch of the structure of that thing is put into practice. What a huge land project it would be.

If my father hadn't been confronted with a local plague on the march more than a dozen years ago and finally died, his huge plan. It is enough for him to cooperate with Wang Chi and enter for a decade or two, and I am afraid it is rare to fully achieve the desired scene.

Since returning from Xiaoliang Guo, in the long years of nearly ten years, Ruan Luo has actually calculated the cost of money to fulfill his father's last wish more than once, and I have to say that as long as it involves the conquest, it is an extremely money-consuming thing.

Of course, Wang Chi also knows this.

Perhaps, this is the reason why he has always been on guard against the Yan family.

Although the Yan family grew up in the Liang Kingdom. The family headquarters is also located in Liang Guo's stable, but Liang Guo's distance from Beiyan. Compared to the distance from Nanzhao Kyoto, it is too close. It changes direction towards the wind. In an extreme situation, the Yan family was accepted by Beiyan, which is also uncertain.

A few years ago, when Ruan Luo was just a child, on the way to study in Liang Kingdom, he met the Yan family caravan on the way, and by coincidence, he was helped by the Yan family until he reached the highest university in Liang Kingdom. At that time, the Yan family's sincerity and enthusiasm for accepting him as a manufacturable material were at their peak, and he was able to take some opportunity to calculate the total annual income of the Yan family, and the probability of reliability was about eighty percent.

It was also from that time that Ruan Luo had an idea in his heart, which was very close to Wang Chi's actual attitude towards the Yan family, so he chose not to say goodbye at that time.

After all, the Yan family was really good to him at that time, and when he thought that he might turn his head in the future and use the skills that the Yan family helped him learn to calculate the Yan family, he felt guilty and didn't dare to receive more favors - in addition, it was indeed the result of his almost learning.

And later, when Ruan Luo returned to Nanzhao, he also thought about whether the Yan family's kindness to him was intentional? The Yan family has been in the mall for a long time, how can he still have that kind of chivalrous heart that can be called an idiot in terms of interest exchanges? And he was so enthusiastic about a foreigner that he almost covered all the living needs of his years of studying in Liang State.

So he commissioned his friend Wang Zhe to do an investigation. As soon as Wang Zhe learned of this, he was suspicious in his heart, and after receiving the instruction, he immediately contacted the members of the four groups who had been stationed in Beiyan.

The four groups of foreign subgroups were originally used to infiltrate the Beiyan Military Department, and since Wang Chi left the Northern Xinjiang garrison and counterattacked Kyoto, this organization was divided into a small group to watch the Liang ** Division. When Ruan Luo asked Wang Zhe to help investigate the affairs of the Yan family, the members of the four groups who entered the Liang Kingdom had just gained a foothold, but it was not too difficult for this gang of people to spy on the old rivers and lakes, and to find out the shortcomings of the parents in the Yan family, as well as some long-standing secrets.

In the end, the result was actually not much suspense, and the kindness that the Yan family had was actually basically in line with the true character of a businessman.

The Yan family's family members helped Ruan Luo, who was just a child back then, of course, there was a plan. What they want is the identity of Ruan Luo that they know, because his father is Ruan Chenggang, because Ruan Chenggang's will makes Nanzhao the ruler of power attach great importance to it, and then attach great importance to Ruan Luo, the only descendant of Ruan Chenggang.

In addition to this, the people in power of the Yan family also firmly believe that it is good for a child. Either it will be quickly forgotten or it will be remembered for a lifetime. Therefore, in order to prevent Ruan Luo from forgetting the help of the Yan family to him so quickly, the head of the Yan family even used his own son. During those years in a foreign country. The third sons of the Yan family, Yan Yu and Ruan Luo, can indeed be called good classmates in the school and good friends outside the school. I'm almost going to bow down.

The news that the spy members of the four groups of foreign groups got back really made Ruan Luo feel a little chilled while being taken aback.

But no matter how the Yan family is going to use themselves, this matter has not been done after all, and Ruan Luo's heart has not been able to harden to a certain extent, so after learning that this bag is hiding evil intentions. [,！ After the news, although Ruan Luo's attitude towards the Yan family was a little indifferent, he didn't want to immediately watch them disappear into ashes.

According to the total annual tax revenue of Nanzhao, as well as the income of some of the country's self-operated industries. All things considered, it would take about five to seven years to fully cover the financial costs of the world that my father had built. If the Yan family is willing to support in silver, it may be able to shorten the process by two or three years, but this is obviously a very ethereal idea. Even if there is such a businessman in this world, it is definitely not the Yan family's share.

And to get the support of this rich man, it seems that there is only one way, and it is also the most exciting way for an emperor.

It's too inhumane to just do that. At least in Ruan Luo's opinion, this method is too killing. But if it really comes to the beginning of the great war. For a king, an emperor like Wang Chi, who was born in Jiangmen, ten thousand people can be killed, not to mention more than a thousand clansmen of the Yan family?

The destruction of a thousand people, the whole family of the people was able to seize the house and fill the treasury. Just more than ten years ago, the king of the previous dynasty did it, and it is not known whether such a thing will be operated by Wang Chi again.

Two bowls of steaming wontons were brought to the table, although the bowls and spoons were made of light gray coarse porcelain, which was not as delicate as the set of bone jade and white porcelain in the palace, but it was better than the bone broth in this large bowl was fragrant, and occasionally there were a few fried shrimp that were fried quickly, and the wontons like jade balls were dotted with fresh onion foam. Tangled with silky seaweed, it suddenly makes people appetizing.

Kyoto Koyo as a seaside city. This kind of food used to enhance the freshness of soup is abundant, and it is used in all wonton noodle restaurants in the city. It also enriches the content of the dinner table of the people in the city.

"When I was in the north, it was as difficult as climbing to the sky if I wanted to eat a handful of such shallots. White flour is also not very common, and the soil climate over there, if you want to have a harvest of wheat, you have to look at the face of the sky and take a big risk, so almost no one wants to try it." Wang Chi pinched the spoon and tossed the wontons in the bowl, as if he remembered something, and his expression was a little erratic. As for what he mentioned to Ruan Luo about Ruan Chenggang's last wish just now, it seems that he has forgotten it.

However, whether he really forgot or not, about that matter, it is really not suitable to talk about it in this open and welcoming wonton restaurant. He only needs to remind Ruan Luo, whether he wants to or not, he must tell him not to forget his son and father's will, and it is enough.

Listening to Wang Chi's usual words, Ruan Luo also made up a sentence: "I remember when I first came to the south, I didn't know what kind of animal the pig was...... In the north, more cattle and sheep are raised, and in order to withstand the bad weather, more jerky reserves are made, which are not as fresh as the south is used to, and even a stick bone can make so many tricks."

Wang Chi came back to his senses slightly, smiled slightly and said: "One side of the water and soil to raise the other side of the people, like the place we used to stay in, there are not too many choices in life, so the people there are used to thinking simply and straightforwardly when facing problems. In the south, where there is an abundance of produce, people may have to think twice about what kind of recipe to change at the dinner table every day."

Ruan Luo also nodded when he heard this, but he already felt that the topic at the dinner table was starting to become a little boring, but he seemed to hear some extraneous sounds, so he didn't answer again.

Sure enough, he quickly listened to Wang Chi continue: "I don't understand, why in that environment, someone would think of making a fortune in business, and raising such a large family business. In our south, there is no one who can match it."

"Maybe it's the real situation." Ruan Luo only took over the conversation at this time, and cooperated with the name of the Yan family, and said in a slightly lowered voice: "The decades when the family developed and progressed the fastest, it was the year when the previous week collapsed, and no one fought with it, so the family was allowed to grow alone."

"And when it comes to southern merchants, the pace of development is more than 30 years later than that family, and now everyone is doing this business. The competition is also great, and in terms of the sum of accumulation, it is indeed incomparable." Speaking of which, Ruan Luo should have remembered something. After a slight pause, he continued: "But in terms of business rules. We still have a winning sub-category in the South."

"Oh? It seems that you have not thought carefully about these things." While Wang Chi was talking, there was gradually a look of expectation in his eyes, "You might as well gossip and chat."

Wang Chi mentioned the word "gossip" between his words, but he actually faintly reminded Ruan Luo to pay attention to the speaking environment, not really asking him to say something that was not painful.

There is no need to say too much, of course Ruan Luo can understand his meaning, and after a little consideration. He said slowly: "There are only two points, one is: the products of various places are irreplaceable according to the geographical advantages, and the other is that there is a sea in the south, although there is also one in the north, but across a mountain range, it is like meat that cannot be reached, and it cannot play a role."

Regarding this analysis, Wang Chi nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "You can see things very well, very good."

"Actually, this is also the foundation of business. Material exchange, different places and different prices, so as to profit." Ruan Luo smiled humbly. So to speak. He can see through these essences of things, probably because he is in the business world, and he is in the middle of things, and he often ponders what he gets.

"In addition to the two things you said, there is actually another thing that I have been suspecting." Wang Chi put the spoon in his hand on the edge of the bowl and said in thought, "Perhaps...... This family is not just a family?"

How could Ruan Luo not know the meaning that Wang Chi did not say in his words, it is very likely that the reason why Wang Chi has always been worried about the continued growth of the Yan family is in this half of Huayi. But the words come to this. Ruan Luo still only asked tentatively: "...... do you mean?"

"Although the pronunciation is different, the ...... I'm still skeptical...... "Wang Chi picked up the spoon again. But he didn't move the wonton in the bowl, and he thought about it for a while. That is, he said. [,！ ]: "Don't you think that the hierarchy and arrangement in this family are different from ordinary merchants?" I often wonder if this is the same vein of the mountains."

"Not yet." Ruan Luo replied in a light tone.

If, as Wang Chi said, the merchant forces dominate the Liang Kingdom, and the Yan family, which is a giant in most of the Zhao realm, actually has the strength of the Northern Yan royal family mixed with it, then in the near future, when the Nanzhao army is aimed at the northern country, and the north and the south cannot avoid going to war, I am afraid that no one will be able to save the Yan family.

No matter how rich a thousand people are, they can't resist hundreds of thousands, even those with iron rods, to attack and sweep them away.

At this time, Ruan Luo seemed to have forgotten that if the Yan family was really a gold-absorbing and silver-absorbing basin controlled by the royal family of the Northern Kingdom, then the nature and significance of this family would no longer be an ordinary merchant family. He has taken the side of national responsibility, and when the country around him is under attack, and he provides financial support for war and armament, then he must be ready to receive the destruction of defeat while accepting the glory of victory, and compassion no longer belongs to the family.

Carefully speaking, Ruan Luo's consciousness of choosing is still only staying in the business circles that he is familiar with. If war and peace between the two countries are involved, he is still easily trapped by the power of choice in his soft heart.

If this matter is placed in front of Wang Chi, once it is determined that the Yan family is actually related to the Beiyan royal family, his choice and layout must be decisive. At least seventy percent of the actual property of the Yan family must be controlled, at least four or fifty percent of the gold and silver that can be directly cashed will be "moved", and then the personal freedom of the core people and important accounts will be restricted and encapsulated. Can't control the killing, can't stay burning, in short, the Yan family's most substantial value to Nanzhao is those gold bricks and silver blocks, as for the essentials of doing business, in Wang Chi's view, all avenues are the same, without his Yan family's experience, Nanzhao can also create his own routines.

Wang Chi had already secretly made up his mind in his heart, otherwise the doubts about the Yan family would have been haunting his mind, and I am afraid that he would often find it difficult to sleep peacefully. At this moment, he mentioned his doubts to Ruan Luo, but also because Ruan Luo's previous opinions could go straight to the core of the problem, so he raised the question that he had been thinking about, looking forward to hearing different voices.

At this time, he really heard a different answer, this completely negative answer, which made him feel quite surprised, and then the doubt in his heart climbed to a higher level.

Seeing that Wang Chi was full of doubts and looked at him with a little disappointment, Ruan Luo hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking, "What does Uncle think of the hierarchy within the Ye family?"

As soon as Wang Chi heard this, the doubts and disappointment in his eyes were suddenly swept away, and then replaced by an awe-inspiring meaning.

In this world, you can talk to him so directly about the Ye family. There are very few people who can keep him calm, fortunately. Ruan Luo is one of these people.

But despite his attitude towards Ruan Luo, the tone of his speech at this moment still sank slightly: "Why did you suddenly talk about this?"

At this time, Ruan Luo had also seen that Wang Chi's feelings were a little sinking. was obviously displeased with mentioning the Ye family, but when he said the word "Ye family", he had already made up his mind to say everything he wanted to say about this matter. So he just paused slightly, and quickly continued: "Does uncle think that the rise of the Ye family was also due to the special division of labor system?"

"This ......"

This time, it was Wang Chi's turn to hesitate.

However, the reason for his hesitation was not because Ruan Luo said something. It's that he wasn't sure if it was the right time for him to tell Ruan Luo about some things about the Ye family.

In fact, many things about the Ye family, he has been hiding from many people so far, and he himself feels that it is very hard to grit his teeth and hold back.

But you can't say it, you just can't say it now!

Wang Chi wanted to answer bluntly: "Yes!" And still answer two in a row.

In the past, the rise of the Ye family was really half due to the special systems within their family, so much so that Wang Chi also borrowed from these systems. In the more than ten years since he ascended the throne, several local improvements have been made to the mess left by the previous dynasty. So he can occasionally go out of the palace in such a light and simple micro-suit, and he will not be alarmed to the palace. causing confusion; So sometimes like the Spring Festival and the people, the Spring Maritime Ceremony and the people appreciate, the emperor openly with the people, leaving a big vacancy in the middle palace, and there has never been any chaos......

Considering these things, the more he couldn't directly respond to Ruan Luo's question with a real answer.

And since he stopped talking, it was Ruan Luo's turn to continue.

"Since the Ye family can rise, it is also a human being, and others can too, not necessarily relying on any special forces." Speaking of which. Ruan Luo seemed to think of something that made him feel embarrassed, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath. The younger generation was studying in the northwest in the early years and heard some sayings. The Ye family originally started there, and this family fell the week before, but some of their deeds are far more abundant in the northwest than in the south, and perhaps this is an opportunity for another family to learn from."

"Maybe what you're saying is a possibility."

For Ruan Luo's analysis, Wang Chi only responded very simply, and then he lowered his head and continued to eat wontons slowly and methodically. Obviously, the topic at the dinner table came to a side that he didn't want to talk about. Even so, Ruan Luo was also interested in not continuing to say anything.

At this moment, a singing voice came from far and near at the door of the wonton restaurant. The singing is a girl who is about twenty-eight years old, although the singing voice is a little stiff in terms of technique, not as good as the famous actors in the big opera troupe, but the eye-catching thing about this singing voice is that this girl is as crisp as a spring. [,！ In the sound of the water dingdong. The singing style that has not been shaped by too many techniques is sometimes touching because of its simplicity.

In the girl's singing, there is only one shamisen note as a backdrop, and the fingering of the person who plucks the strings is too simple, only three or two fingers are plucked at the corners of a few syllables. As far as the girl's singing voice is concerned, the purpose of the violin player does not seem to be to make the singing more gorgeous, but only to serve as a guide for the beginner singer.

The not-so-elaborate singing voice with obviously not very enthusiastic strings makes people feel that this pair of singers who are not very enthusiastic are either noble-born, but because of the collapse of their families, they are forced to sell their performances on the streets, or they have been poor for a long time and lack the strength to support this seemingly light but actually tiring work.

But it is such a singing skill and chord sound that can attract the attention of Wang Chi, who has listened to countless court music in the wonton hall, and his eyes moved out of the door and stopped for a long time before retracting it.

The main reason why such a rough piece of music would attract his attention was that the familiar melody hooked a wisp of memory out of the depths of his mind, and his thoughts flew out of the door with the wisp of memory that seemed to have become distant because of the dusty time.

"Uncle?" Ruan Luo watched something strange and called softly.

Wang Chi's eyebrows moved, but it wasn't until he saw an old man and a young man walking slowly past the door, not on the other side of the door, that he withdrew his gaze and said, "What's the matter?"

Ruan Luo hesitated for a moment, and said in a different way: "What do you think of the singing outside the door just now?"

"Not good." Although Wang Chi's evaluation is ugly. But his face did not show any displeasure for hearing suffering, but smiled slightly as if he remembered something wonderful. But it's a familiar tune."

Ruan Luo became curious.

A tune that can make Wang Chi feel familiar, even if it is not composed by the orchestra that resides in the palace. It must also be the work of that famous musician, who occasionally went into the palace to play it, so that Wang Chi will have a memory. It's just that the way the two traveling artists who played and sang just now sold their art and begged for a living, obviously sang wherever they went. And although this kind of music artist can play and sing, most of them have superficial skills, and it is difficult to become a fixed faction.

If you are a city resident who often eats and drinks in a restaurant outside your home, you will encounter two or three groups of such artists every day, but Wang Chi is busy with state affairs every day. How can you have so much leisure time to swim outside the palace, and how can you have an impression of these two wandering artists who have different genres?

"Do you remember your Aunt Ye?" As Wang Chi spoke, a hint of amazement pressed under his eyebrows, "In the past, in the Northland, she occasionally sang some small songs, which is the tune...... Perhaps it can't be called a tune, even she herself often commented on it...... It's called 'out of tune,' and it's also called 'out of tune.'"

"Not in tune?" Wang Chi's words made a somewhat hazy figure gradually appear in Ruan Luo's memory.

"The last time you saw her, we didn't come back. You were about four or five years old at the time, so you don't remember much about her, do you?" Wang Chi paused slightly when he said this, and he didn't have time for Ruan Luo to respond. He himself opened his mouth and slowly continued: "When she used to be upset, she would sing this, saying that she would sing wherever she wanted, so there was no score and no tune, and she forgot about it after singing, and then even forgot about those boundless troubles."

"Aunt Ye's appearance, the juniors really don't remember it very clearly now." Ruan Luo tried hard for a while, but in the end, there was no way to make the shadow in the depths of his memory clearer, so he had to give up. muttered with some feelings: "The only thing I remember the most is that she often walks around with her second son in her arms. But they won't hold me much. At that time, I often wondered why Aunt Ye was still with one hand idle. But you won't pick me up? Looking back now, I just think my thoughts are ridiculous."

"Hong'er has been weak since she was a child, if she hadn't been bold enough to go out for a walk in those years, I am afraid that she would really be suffocated by that child." Thinking of the memory fragment that seemed to be always covered with a layer of yellow sand, Wang Chi couldn't help but sigh softly, and then he looked at Ruan Luo, and said with a slightly slower face: "But, if you want her to hold two children who are almost four years old at the same time, it will really make her tired enough."

More than ten years ago, the child that Miss Ye was "lazy" to hold was still very strong, but Wang Chi often hugged him and used the iron ring hanging on the handle of the big knife on his side waist as a bell to make him laugh.

Ruan Luo laughed.

Wang Chi didn't say anything more on this topic, he just buried his head and continued to eat wontons, and the soup quickly dried out after a bowl of three fresh wontons. The two guards sitting at the table next to him have been close to him for a long time, knowing his habits after dinner, they didn't participate in half a sentence before, in fact, they didn't relax their attention to the table here, Wang Chi put down the spoon Not long after, the shopkeeper quickly brought a pot of tea under the call of the two guards.

The small restaurant that opens in the neighborhood greets customers with coarse tea at a relatively low price. Of course, there are also some valuable tea leaves on the counter, but Wang Chi came out on this trip, the main purpose is to be as low-key as possible, and the two close entourages must also understand this, so all the things encountered when walking outside the palace are natural.

After drinking half a light brown tea soup, the bitter taste is like a densely woven net, entangled in the tongue, but it also makes people's brains, which are easy to become chaotic after eating, quickly become clear.

Putting down the teacup, Wang Chi glanced in front of Ruan Luo, only to see that there was at least half of the sea bowl left in his hand.

"You've always eaten like that?" Wang Chi said with some worry, "The body hasn't been repaired yet, so don't drink tea with me anymore."

"Is Uncle going back?"

In fact, Ruan Luo can already realize this, but at the same time, he also feels that if the secret decree is the purpose of Wang Chi's trip out of the palace today, then the moment he leaves the bookstore should be the time for him to say goodbye. [,！ Why do you have to go around the back of your head so much?

Just to chat about some short gossip from parents? Ruan Luo himself felt incredulous, he didn't know the stacking speed of the stack of folds on the table in the imperial study, for Wang Chi, every hour was very precious-

(To be continued)
