When Ling Qingsong and Li Han returned home together, Qingxi praised their seamless double reeds.

Li Han said with a disgusted face: "I didn't participate in Tanhualang's plan to set up others, I happened to pass by, purely to benefit the people." ”

Qing Song smiled disapprerovingly: "Don't be modest, if you don't want to expand Changfeng's influence in Sujiang, you can't give up the thousand taels, but in business, you and I are mutually beneficial, and we are a perfect match." ”

Li Han did not refute either, with a gesture of gladly accepting.

He was right. Jiangnan is a rich place, but Changfeng's business here is not booming, and she does have the plan to use this opportunity to open a new situation.

Qingxi dragged Qingsong and teased: "Lord Ling, you are competing with the people for profit and reaching out to the people, but you want to create impeachment." ”

Qing Song spread his hands and said helplessly: "If the government can spend so much, why should I sing this play." Su Jiang is rich in the people, not an official. Besides, they don't lose, how much they pay now, how much they will benefit in the future. South Lake will be a cornucopia, trust me. ”

He spoke with ease and confidence.

"If it's messed up, I think even this Chen Yuan will have to pay for it." At this time, Chen Ji walked out of the backyard, followed by Xiao Yizheng.

Qing Song immediately saluted respectfully, and then said with a hippie smile: "Grandpa, Chen Yuan can't compensate, don't worry." ”

Chen Ji didn't pay attention to him, but smiled at Li Han lovingly: "Han girl is back?" Is the transaction processed? ”

"Yes." Li Han stepped forward as he spoke, and naturally took Chen Ji's arm and walked into the hall.

Qingxi raised his eyebrows and looked at Qingsong, his eyes were puzzled, with a little incredulity.

Qing Song returned to his understanding eyes and said softly: "I also wonder, why did Li Han become so close to the two old men?" ”

After speaking, he waved his hand and smiled at Xiao Yizheng, who approached Qingxi's side.

"I know that this thing is very well done today." Xiao Yizheng smiled and appreciated.

Qingsong hurriedly said that he was tired and went back to the room by himself.

Xiao Yizheng nodded and said: "In time, the name of knowledge will be established here." ”

"That's nature." Qingxi's pride was undisguised, and then he asked Xiao Yiran about his performance in Chen's place of residence with concern.

"Ah Gong wants to observe Xiao Qi's patience, concentration, and inner preferences through the practice of characters. I think Xiao Qi should have passed the investigation, but the road is long. ”

Qingxi was not surprised, but said with peace of mind: "That's a very good beginning." ”

Xiao Yizheng nodded, quietly looking at Qingxi's carefree smile, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on her flawless face, making people feel infinitely beautiful.

He hid all his doubts about his mother, and said softly: "I just saw that the ancient dry lotus in front of the house is about to bloom, and the Xinyi flowers in the Magnolia Valley are also about to bloom." Heng, your birthday is approaching. ”

Qingxi pursed her lips and smiled, looked at him leisurely, and didn't speak.

Xiao Yizheng understood: "I will prepare well." ”

After dinner, Li Han took the initiative to find Xiao Yizheng and Qingxi to have a heart-to-heart chat.

The two naturally knew what Li Han was talking about.

However, Xiao Yizheng ordered Yueying to prepare tea fruits and place them on the stone table under the ancient dry lotus, and put on a posture of admiring the moon and chatting.

Li Han said with a solemn expression: "Sixth Master, I'm afraid what I said can't be passed on. ”

Qingxi already sat down with a smile, "You don't have to worry, don't say that no one in Chen Yuan will deliberately listen to us, just say that no one will enter our courtyard so late." ”

Hearing them say this, Li Han was not hypocritical, and sat down and said directly: "You must know that I came to Sujiang to deal with Changfeng affairs for the jade pendant." ”

Xiao Yizheng bowed his head and put a cloak on Qingxi.

Li Han said again: "My old man must have told you that the merchant from Beisu came to Sujiang and met many people. ”

Xiao Yizheng bowed his head again.

"Then you must also be curious, why I came to Chen Yuan, of course I have a deep friendship with you, if you are not curious, you can also."

Qingxi smiled and said softly, "I think the one who is most curious is my brother." ”

Li Han frowned and said lightly: "That's right." ”

Xiao Yizheng also frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "He saw Grandpa?" ”

His words made Qingxi and Li Han stunned.

Li Han's stunned was because Xiao Yizheng actually said it.

Qingxi's shock was purely because of the connotation of this sentence.

"He saw Grandpa!" Observing Li Han's reaction, Xiao Yizheng said firmly: "Otherwise, you won't live in Chen Yuan." ”

Li Han nodded: "When you first arrived, I thought that you would have to rest for two days first, so I didn't rush to say it. ”

"So, what did he say when he saw Ah Gong, do you know?" Qingxi leaned forward, and his words were hurried.

"I don't know." Li Han shook his head.

"Ah Heng, with your understanding of Ah Gong, would he meet a merchant from Beisu for no reason?" Xiao Yizheng asked.

Qingxi was silent for a while, then nodded, "Actually, it's possible." Regardless of their status and status, they don't ask where they were born, they only ask if they have the same temperament. However, over the years, Ah Gong has grown older, and he is not very willing to see the living. ”

Xiao Yizheng nodded, and asked Li Han again: "You continue." ”

"I don't know exactly what they talked about, but after seeing Mr. Chen, the man left for home. Changfeng's people came to report that his route should be to return to Beisu. I hesitated to ask him directly to see the jade pendant or come directly to Chen Yuan, but I didn't think much about it, so I came to Chen Yuan. Li Han said unhurriedly.

"So, what do you want to confirm when you come to Chen Yuan?" Qingxi was puzzled.

Li Han didn't speak immediately, but took a sip of saliva, as if he was sinking in his breath, before he spoke: "You know, I was looking for that jade pendant to find out my life experience. I know that Mr. Chen's mother's surname is Li. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yizheng was also a little surprised.

Qingxi suddenly realized: "So you doubt? Yes, my great-grandmother's real name is Li. ”

"So, have you asked Ah Gong?" Xiao Yizheng asked in a low voice.

Li Han shook his head: "I want to confirm it, but I don't dare to confirm it." She raised her eyes to look at Qingxi, and said in a soft voice: "Liuniang, the two old people are kind and pure, and after getting along for these days, I have regarded them as relatives, but it doesn't matter whether they are or not. It's just that that jade pendant is still about the sixth master, and this matter should be told to you. ”t.

Qingxi frowned and thought about it, Xiao Yizheng raised his hand to cover the back of her hand, and said softly: "Ah Heng, don't worry about it." ”

Qingxi rolled his eyes, paused, and smiled lightly at Li Han: "You are right, in fact, whether it is your grandfather and grandmother, or the brother who often quarrels with you, they all regard you as their own person, let alone us." However, if you have any doubts, I am also willing to ask Ah Gong. ”

Li Han's face relaxed: "I still have to think about the sixth master first." ”

The two turned their eyes to Xiao Yizheng at the same time.

Qingxi said: "The matter of the jade pendant is very strange, and now it involves Ah Gong." I have to get to understand. ”

Xiao Yizheng looked at her, saw that she was very serious, and his heart sank.

I thought that I had come to Sujiang, but I was far away from the power struggle in Shangdu, but I never thought that there was another mystery waiting for them.

He was about to say something, but Qingsong hurriedly walked into the courtyard.

When the three men saw that he was coming, they all stopped.

Xiao Yizheng got up and asked, "But something?" ”

Lizhi handed over a letter and said, "The post station just sent it, and it was directly delivered to the house, saying that it was an urgent item from Shangdu." On the envelope is my father's handwriting, I opened it and saw that there was a small envelope in the envelope, which was written by you. ”

Xiao Yizheng took the letter and glanced at it, it was the handwriting of Princess Xiao Lechang of Anqing.

With a shake of his hand, he knew that something must have happened in Shangdu, otherwise Princess Anping would not have sent a message to him like this.

Sure enough, when he opened the letter and looked at it, his face changed greatly.

Qingxi noticed the change in his expression, and immediately got up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Yizheng rubbed the letter, raised his eyes and said, "It's nothing, it's a letter from the fourth sister." ”

Qingxi was puzzled, but he didn't ask again.

Qing Song's attention had already shifted to Li Han, and he asked with a smile: "Is it inappropriate for the big boss to disturb my sister and brother-in-law so late?" ”

Li Han unexpectedly did not sneer at each other, but got up, bowed, and said

"It's really inappropriate, so I won't bother the sixth master and six mothers." ”

In fact, she also saw that the letter in Xiao Yizheng's hand was extraordinary, and what she should say had already been explained.

Qing Song was a little surprised to see her behave like this.

"Tanhualang, let's go......" Li Han said to him with a smile.

Qingsong felt that Li Han didn't smile often, but this occasional light and natural smile was particularly tasteful.

Before he could reply, Li Han had already started to pull him forward.

"I said that the big boss, Sven is not good......"

After the two of them left the courtyard, Xiao Yizheng took Qingxi's hand and went back to the house.

As soon as the door of the house was closed, Xiao Yizheng handed the letter in his hand to Qingxi.

Qingxi immediately took it and only saw four words: "Father is critically ill." ”

Her face was pale, her heartbeat was extremely fast, she looked at Xiao Yizheng fixedly with round eyes, and asked, "Is it true?" Is it fake? ”

She could hear Xiao Yizheng's heavy breathing, full of heavy uneasiness.

She hurriedly grabbed his hand: "Chengzhan, don't panic." ”

Xiao Yizheng raised his eyes to look at her, although there was anxiety in his eyes that could not be concealed, but he was not flustered. "It's the handwriting of the fourth sister." His deep voice had already settled down.

"How so? When we left Beijing, my father was obviously fine. Qingxi looked at the letter carefully, as if he wanted to see something mysterious from those four words. So, what do you expect now? Her hand tightened, making Xiao Yizheng's cold hand a little warmer: "No matter what decision you make, I will support it without hesitation." We can leave for Shangdu immediately. ”

Xiao Yizheng looked directly at her gaze and shook his head: "You can't be hasty, even if you want to fly back to Shangdu at this moment, you still have to think long-term." ”

Cheongxi immediately understood his concerns.

"Yes, the fourth sister only wrote four words, in fact, she could have written more""
