Chapter 154: Seeing the Sun (4)
Xue Yuxue stepped in the door, smiling.
was the closest brother and sister, but Xue Chunyue and Xue Peiqi did not feel the warmth, but felt a little uneasy.
"Yuxue, didn't we say okay, if we don't succeed, we won't meet?" Xue Peiqi took the door with him, and did not forget to look around to confirm that there was no suspicious situation.
"The fourth brother is so cautious, isn't he worried about Yuxue's deception?"
"That's not it, it's not that I can't trust Yuxue, but I'm worried that King Xu can't trust us."
Yuxue smiled indifferently, then walked to the table and sat down, looked at the tea and said, "West Lake Longjing, Haidong flavor, sister I...... But I haven't tasted it for a long time. β
Xue Chunyue asked someone to serve a hot tea and put it in front of her in person, unfazed, "The people in Changxing don't seem to like Longjing, it's a pity." β
"It's a pity that it's not only Longjing, but also our overseas trade in Haidong, and the people of Changxing don't seem to like it."
Xue Yuxue is not wrong, the court of Changxing often quarrels over the sea ban, King Xu, who was in power before, was deeply benefited by the sea trade, so he naturally did not take the sea ban faction in his eyes, but now, King Sheng has entered the dynasty and is bringing public opinion in the direction of the sea ban.
"So", Xue Yuxue changed her words and said sharply, "The two elder brothers still need to work harder, before the imperial court bans the sea trade, so that the benefits of the elder brother's sea trade will be more abundant." β
I didn't expect Xue Yuxue to be so outspoken, it seems that King Xu has accumulated energy and is ready to go.
Xue Peiqi silently took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Please also ask Sister Yuxue to go back and tell King Xu that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and the top priority is to ensure that Uncle Xue's sea trade benefits are all used by King Xu." After all, over the years, Uncle Xue has been more than just King Xu. β
The sarcasm between words, how could Xue Yuxue not know, but Xue Huijin is a person who is stubborn and self-serving, and he can't make a big deal, Xue Peiqi can't be too sarcastic, if he wasn't her brother-in-law, she wouldn't take him in her eyes at all!
"Sister", Xue Chunyue pushed the teacup to her, and said in a deep voice, "My brother got Ye Cizhun's account, and he already grasped the business opportunity, and now Pei Qi pretended to be the convenience of the Xiao family, and opened the door to him in various cities under the household department. I still say the same thing, don't rush for quick success. β
"The second brother is a cheerful person, so I won't beat around the bush. King Seung took control of the soldiers and horses near Gyeonggi, and King Wook needed more funds to win over the old department, so he asked the two elder brothers to work harder, at least, to make the elder brother profit of one million taels. β
"A million taels?! Hmph, he doesn't have a small appetite! Xue Peiqi couldn't hold back and couldn't help but sneer.
Xue Chunyue held him down, and an elusive smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Okay, one million taels is one million taels, please rest assured." β
Xue Yuxue saw that he was serious about his promise, so she didn't say anything more, got up and left.
Sending this uninvited guest away, Xue Peiqi's temper finally couldn't be suppressed, and he immediately slapped over the tea cup on the table!
"The information of Han Yang and Han Xiang was obtained by Liu Yi from Wei Zhiyu, and King Xu only contributed a few connections of the Sect Division, which is also worthy of his arrogance!"
"Don't worry, we outsiders, just watch them fight, anyway, this country, after all, they are the nobles these days, whoever wins, for us, it's the same. On the contrary, it's you, why are you getting more and more unable to hold your breath, Liu Yi and Wei Zhiyu's matter, I will not mention it again in the future, in case Wei Yingshi knows, I'm afraid that I will find out Zhiyu when I chase it to the ends of the earth! β
"Hmph, Wei Yingshi is smart, he doesn't encourage or participate, and he can clean up if something happens! However, it is estimated that he could never have imagined that as early as ten years ago, when Wei Yingshi and Han Yang first began to collude, Zhiyu had insight into the dirty things of the Han family! β
"It's a pity that Zhiyu left Changxing, if she doesn't leave, or Yi'an won't die-"
Suddenly realizing that he had mentioned someone he shouldn't mention, Xue Chunyue hurriedly stopped his mouth and wrinkled his eyebrows in thought.
Xue Peiqi clenched his hands into fists, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't blame anyone for this matter, only me, I didn't protect her!" β
But Xue Chunyue still diverted the topic, "This unknown repertoire, the foreplay has been opened, and the follow-up depends on you and me to adapt to the situation." β
This bet is not small, but in order to avenge Yi'an, everyone waited without hesitation.
King Xu was defeated, and all the forces in the dynasty collapsed, but there is one thing that is still in his hand, that is, the official family music workshop in Changxing and Luo'an-Jiaofang Division.
An official brothel like the Jiaofang Division is the most observant and obsessive, and the powerful are clinging to it, King Xu gained power early, and the Jiaofang Division was also early, so the Jiaofang Division was full of King Xu's power. When King Xu fell, his political enemies only wanted to eliminate his forces in the court, and the three religions and nine streams of the Jiaofang Division were not taken into account at all.
However, it was the three-class and nine-rate sectarian priest who lured out the old fox Han Xiang.
Not only that, but he also got a sharp weapon that Wei Zhiyu discovered - the Han family borrowed the convenience of the Ministry of Officials, accepted bribes, and sold the record books of the official mantle!
Almost half of the parents of the Daye Dynasty were sold by the Han family!
Of course, if King Xu wants to regain the power of the Jiaofang Division, firstly, he must have enough funds, and secondly, someone must be able to help him move the flowers and trees, and move Xue Yuxue, a good helper with exquisite faces, out of the cage of the Chenliu County Mansion!
Xue Peiqi is the best candidate.
He was born in King Xu's camp and has been operating in Changxing for many years, so it is not difficult to find a stand-in for Xue Yuxue and send this stand-in to King Xu's mansion.
The hard part is the funding.
Fortunately, Xue Peiqi's father-in-law is an upstart in the government and the opposition, and he is now the head of the household, Xiao Hongming. He only needs to make use of his baby daughter Xiao Tingchu to open a convenient door for people in the city, and it is not difficult. In addition, with Xue Chunyue, the second-in-command of the household, as a cover-up, everything is seamless.
As for Xiao Tingchu, whether she knows it or not, in short, she is willing to be used by Xue Peiqi, so that's fine.
Xue Peiqi, the chosen son, took the initiative to knock on King Xu's door, which simply made him ecstatic, as long as Xue Huijin was put back in his pocket and his capital bridge, everything would fall into place.
Fortunately, Xue Huijin has a sister who is not willing to be bland, Xue Yuxue.
When she came to King Xu half-pushed, didn't she dream of the throne above ten thousand people under one person? It's rare to have a chance to turn over, but what is the difficulty of asking her to subdue Xue Huijin?
In the summer evening, there was a sudden storm and rain.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to leave." Xue Chunyue stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the dim sky outside the window in a slight daze.
"It's okay if you don't leave, if you go back alone, you will only miss her more." After a pause, Xue Peiqi suddenly turned around and asked seriously, "Xue Huijin has already deployed ships in Haizhou, can he bear it as easy as the sea?" Will he eat away at Ding Taihe? β
"It's too late to think about itβ"
Ye Qinyu's voice came, and both of them were startled and hurriedly looked out.
Seeing Ye Qinyu push open the door, there was still a bit of solemnity on her face, she looked at the two of them, and handed the letter in her hand to Xue Chunyue, "Yi Ruhai letter, Ding Tai Hui is crazy to eat away at Ding Taihe's business under the banner of his father." β
"Let him go." Xue Chunyue glanced at the letter, refolded it quietly, and put it on the table casually.
Ye Qinyu was puzzled, "Ding Taihe is the brainchild of my father and you, you-"
"If it weren't for Ding Taihe, my father would not have been separated from his mother, if they were not separated, there might not have been so many misunderstandings and branches, and maybe, there would not be such a sad situation today. When my mother was alive, she never felt joy and sorrow because of Dingtai, and when it came to me, it should be the same. β
Ye Qinyu knew the sorrow in Xue Chunyue's heart, so he couldn't help but step forward to hold his hand and lean on his shoulder.
"It seems that I should go back, no matter how strong the wind and rain are, it is better than watching your affection here." Xue Peiqi said such a sentence coldly, and disappeared into the vast twilight in a blink of an eye......
Three days later, the court of Daye shook again.
Han Yang sold the official mantle, Han Xiang maliciously confused the king, the evidence was ironclad, Dali Temple sentenced the two to death, Emperor Hongyuan was furious because of the case of bewildering the king, changed the biased style of the Han family, and approved the closing chapter of the Dali Temple in court, the two were beheaded, and the Han family was copied!
In the midsummer of Hongyuan's twenty-first year, the case of Confused Jun, which had dragged on for half a year, was finally completely settled.
It was another dark cloudy dusk, and Xue Peiqi rode alone to the tomb next to King Xiang and his wife.
The tomb of the lord of Yi'an.
In just six words, simple and elegant, it is like Yi'an after enlightenment.
He laid down the sacrificial fruit and leaned on the tombstone to drink himself, as if nothing in heaven and earth had anything to do with him.
Ye Cizhun didn't agree with him to take Qi'er away, he had no choice but to come here to complain to Yi'an, who was sleeping.
Xiao Tingchu had never interfered with his actions, but this time, he quietly followed.
"The Han family has been defeated, and your revenge can be regarded as revenge......"
"You shouldn't be here." Xue Pei didn't raise his head, but just poured a few sips of wine.
"Your Majesty has decreed that you will be promoted to the rank of squire of the Ministry of Officials, and you will be drunk to death if you don't do it for a day? ! Back then, in Luo'an, you were so free-roamβ"
"Don't mention Loan again!" Xue Peiqi lost control of his emotions and smashed the wine bottle hard! Back then, Yi'an was also in Luo'an, pregnant with his child, living gloomily, but he was in Luo'an's Chu State Mansion, singing about wine! Every time he thought about it, he felt remorseful!
Xiao Tingchu raised his head, not wanting his tears to fall, "Okay, you can continue to stay here...... King Xu and Xue Huijin are the mess that you have to turn over, I can pretend to be deaf and dumb and ignore it, but one day, they will stand in front of us again in a grand manner, and at that time, all of us will have to face this problem and escape from it...... Scold...... Can you escape for the rest of your life......"
