Halfway up the mountainside, the clouds rolled up, and the conversation of Weng's son-in-law in the cloud pavilion gradually entered the alley.

"Uncle is not afraid of losing all his money?" Lu Yun put on the porridge bowl, gently blowing the hot air, but did not send it to his mouth.

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. The deal with the virtuous son-in-law, once it fails, it will be a lot of people, and there is no chance to turn the book around. Shang Yun gulped down breakfast, and a pair of small eyes turned around: "But I, Shang Yun, have been waiting for such an opportunity all my life, so that I can bet on everything, and if I win, it will be turned upside down, and if I lose, I will go to his mother." ”

"The merchant is rich enough to rival the country, why does my uncle still fight so hard?" Lu Yun asked softly.

"To make up for my dad's regrets. At the beginning of your grandfather's army in Chang'an, my business vigorously funded it. But businessmen always want to make money in harmony and are exquisite, and they are unwilling to openly break with Dongqi. As a result, it was not until the eight major families joined forces to set the pass, and when the 100,000 army left Tongguan, they officially joined the camp of Daxuan. ”

Speaking of the events of the year, Shang Yun still couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's a little later than the seven families, and the result is that you can't catch up with one step, and you can't catch up every step." In the end, my father only got a marquis, and the merchant did not rank among the top scholars, so my father died depressed. ”

"I once swore in front of his spirit that in my lifetime, I must make the merchant one of the top gate valves of Daxuan, and trample all those mediocre wastes with qualifications and relationships under my feet!" As he spoke, he slapped the table heavily and said, "Son-in-law, you have to give me this opportunity." ”

"What is this......" Lu Yun put down the porridge bowl and peeled the eggs slowly. As if he was not in the least moved by Shang Yun's generous statement. "Opportunities are not given by people, but earned by oneself."

"Well, how can a virtuous son-in-law be more like a profiteer than an old man?" Shang Yun looked at Lu Yun with resentment: "If you want me to do something, you just say it, how can I know if you don't say it." ”

"Let me ask my uncle a few questions first." Lu Yun peeled the egg, but handed it to Shang Yun, and said with a smile: "Uncle, please use it." ”

"Hey, thank you. You ask. Shang Yun took the egg with a smile and swallowed it in one gulp.

"You're from the Cold Society?" I heard Lu Yun ask quietly.

Shang Yun's cold hair stood on end when he heard this, and with a bang, he was stuck in his throat by an egg, and he almost choked to death.

Lu Yun hurriedly slapped him on the back and helped Shang Yun swallow the egg stiffly. choked Shang Yun with rolling his eyes and tears flowing.

After a while, he relieved himself and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that the virtuous son-in-law even knew about the Han Society?" ”

"Is that a strange name?" Lu Yun asked rhetorically.

"In the past ten years, no one has mentioned this name." Shang Yun said with a gloomy smile: "If it wasn't for the virtuous son-in-law to ask, I almost forgot." ”

"Uncle is still talking nonsense with me with his eyes open, so this business can't be discussed." Lu Yun made a gesture to get up.

"Oh, don't worry, son-in-law, I said I was about to forget, and I didn't say I forgot completely." Shang Yun hurriedly pulled Lu Yun back to his seat.

"Uncle will go around in circles with me again, and we won't talk about it." Lu Yun said with a straight face: "Doing business is about integrity, uncle's time is expensive, don't waste it on me." ”

"Okay, don't be angry, where is the young man so angry?" Shang Yun nodded with a wry smile and said, "The virtuous son-in-law asked me if I was from the Han Society, and I could only answer, yes and no." ”

"What do you mean yes and no?" Lu Yun frowned and asked.

"Yes, it's because I was indeed a member of the Cold Society, and I was the main funder." Shang Yun opened the conversation and said: "When my father died depressed, I was unwilling to be ridden on top of my head by the Seven Great Gates, so I actively looked for the power that I could use. At that time, the Han Society came into my sight, and they united with the people of insight of the Shu tribe to overthrow the idea of the rule of the Shi clan, which was very appetizing to me, so I generously donated money to help them develop and grow, and I gradually became the core figure of the Han Society. ”

"Then why did my uncle say no?" Lu Yun asked softly.

"Hahaha......" Shang Yun stretched out his fat hand with a thick gemstone ring, pointed to the magnificent mountain villa under his feet, which was second only to the summer palace, and said proudly: "Do you think that my merchant has anything to do with Hanzi?" We and the people of the Hansha are just using each other. ”

"Did you participate in Bao'en Temple?" Lu Yunzhuo asked again casually: "As far as I know, the Han Society is very responsible for my father's death. ”

"Yes, the change in Bao'en Temple was indeed planned by the people of the Cold Society, but I definitely didn't know about it, let alone participated." Shang Yun's face was devoid of philistine, and he said to Lu Yun with a solemn expression: "Gao Guangning should be disposed of by His Highness, right?" ”

"Hmm. He told me a lot of things. Lu Yun's hands clenched involuntarily, obviously his heart was by no means as calm as it seemed.

"Gao Guangning was sent by me to the side of the first emperor, but I can assure His Highness that I sent him to the first emperor in order to push His Majesty to re-measure the acres of land and census the national household registration, so as to shake the foundation of the clan and eliminate their privileges." Speaking of old things, Shang Yun's eyes were full of tears, and his fat lips kept moving:

"These measures of the first emperor are very beneficial to my business, how can I harm the first emperor? It was another careerist mixed in with the Han Society, and he used the power of the Han Society to lead His Majesty to a dead end. ”

"It wasn't you who interviewed my father that day?" Lu Yun was unmoved, staring at Shang Yun coldly.

"It's not me, it's Zhu Xiuyi, he is the fifth prince of Eastern Qi. Before the fall of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, he deliberately mixed into the Great Xuan, not only was he reused by the Xiahou Valve, but also joined our Han Society. At first, including the old man, they were deeply impressed by his clever calculations, so they obeyed him. He took advantage of our trust with one hand and provoked the Xiahou valve with the other, which eventually led to the change of Bao'en Temple. ”

Speaking of Zhu Xiuyi, Shang Yun gritted his teeth for a while and said: "This guy is the culprit who killed the first emperor, and now he is still lurking around Xiahou Ba, the purpose is still to disturb Daxuan and let the valves kill each other, he has a good chance to restore Eastern Qi!" ”

"Zhu Xiuyi?" Lu Yun was dumbfounded when he heard this, he was naturally familiar with the Divine Machine Master of the Xiahou Valve, but he didn't expect that that guy would actually harbor such a terrifying evil intention.

But combined with Xiahou Valve's abnormal behavior in the past few years, it seems that Xiahou Ba is indeed hidden by his side, such a person with ulterior motives, misleading Xiahou Valve without a trace. Before the big ship knew it, it had sailed into the shallows......

"Uncle said that, but he still maintains cooperation with that Zhu Xiuyi, right?" Lu Yun knew Zhu Xiuyi's identity, so he naturally guessed that at that time in the Bishan Crypt, Xiahou Valve was not negligent at all, so he would be used by Huan Daoji and Zhou Huang. Instead, Zhu Xiuyi and the Han Society were secretly making trouble, in a vain attempt to bury all the great masters of each valve at the foot of the mountain.
