Chapter 154: The Banquet

Just when the rumors about Yang Xiuqing and Qi Yongzhong were circulating in the whole city, the eldest prince invited the heroes of the White Lotus Sect to be exterminated at a banquet in his own mansion.

"Young master, this great prince sent someone to send an invitation." When Yang Xiuqing was thinking about expanding his business to the north, Yang San came over with an invitation letter.

Yang Xiuqing wanted to ignore it, but when he turned his head and thought about it, the saddest thing in this court was the lonely minister, if he didn't want to go back to Ye Youji's old path, he could only be clever, and when his own strength did not reach the level of confrontation with them, he could only tolerate them.

"Prepare a generous gift and go to the banquet tonight."

"It's the young master." When Yang San was about to walk out, Yang Xiuqing frowned as if he remembered something and said, "Slow, you go and ask Si Shidawei, those officials in the court are cooperating with them, and make a list for me." ”

Yang Xiuqing thought of the frequent invasion of Hu cavalry in the north, so he was sure that there would be weak people in the court to ventilate with, or merchants and officials who cooperated with him for profit, and this group of people was what Yang Xiuqing wanted to figure out.

After a while, Yang San brought a list: "Young Master, these are just some small shrimps and crabs." ”

Yang Xiuqing watched carefully, and said with a smile for a long time: "He thought that he could send me away by giving me some small officials and small businessmen, he also looked down on me too much, you go and call Dafu over, oh, by the way, call Zhu Bo and others over." ”

Originally, Yang Xiuqing hadn't figured out how to resist the exhibition road, but after seeing this list at this time, he had an idea.

Yang Xiuqing took out the information he got from Si Shidawei, but at this time, Zhu Zhanpeng and the others came in one after another.

"Young Master, Yang Er has already loaded the armaments." As soon as Zhu Zhanpeng came in, he reported back.

"Well, well done, but Yang Er must be optimistic about things, and even the news can't be leaked, otherwise it will be a trouble." Yang Xiuqing said uneasily.

After Yang Xiuqing finished speaking, he stared at Jin Dafu, Jin Dafu has been living a good life these days, after looking at him without Hua Pine, he is rich again, and his weight has gained one-third of his weight.

"Rich, life is good." Yang Xiuqing said casually, but Jin Dafu's heart was cold after hearing this, and after seeing Yang Xiuqing's familiar eyes, Jin Dafu looked at Yang Xiuqing vigilantly.

"Young master, Lao Jin, I've been dizzy, headache, and dizzy these days, and my feet are not good, this ......."

"Phew, give a shameless thing, it seems that Yang Er and Yang San have taught you to be a man." As soon as Yang Xiu's words came out, Yang San's eyes looked at Jin Dafu, Jin Dafu wiped his forehead and said respectfully: "The young master is right, the young master is right." ”

"Hmph, don't talk nonsense, you take this list, I want you to find out the details of them within three days, especially the people in the DPRK and China, who have connections with that high-ranking official and big profiteer, you have to find out, do you know."

"Yes, yes." Jin Dafu breathed a sigh of relief, he was asked by Yang Xiuqing to do this and that these times, he did it with fear, although he took a lot of silver, but he also knew that if he was discovered by someone with a heart, then his life would be gone.

"Three days, remember, you only have three days, money, allocate 20,000 taels to you, if you can't do it, you can be with Si Shidawei." Yang Xiuqing emphasized again.

Jin Dafu's face changed greatly when he heard this, but he knew what the consequences implied by Yang Xiuqing were: "Young Master, don't worry, Lao Jin will be able to complete this task successfully." ”

Yang Xiuqing nodded with satisfaction, but Jin Dafu was uneasy, and Yang Xiuqing chuckled: "You go." ”

Jin Dafu took the list and left as if fleeing for his life, Yang Xiuqing saw Jin Dafu's embarrassed back and smiled: "This Dafu, this time I called you here because there is a decision to announce, I am going to call all the people to celebrate the New Year in Beijing, this period of time to complete the trade route as soon as possible, and then move the family to the north temporarily, in order to make plans for the future, Uncle Zhu and Uncle Ma, it depends on the two of you." ”

"Young master, don't worry." Ma Quan and Zhu Zhanpeng said in unison. Ma Quan looked at Yang Xiuqing with excitement on his face: "Young master, should Taiping Hospital be moved here?" ”

"Sun Chao, what about your opinion."

"I think, it's better not to move for the time being, we have some things that are not in line with the tastes of those hypocrites, and when the young master settles down, you can move over." Sun Chao pondered for a moment and said.

"Tell Yang Yi to bring all the people over as soon as possible, he also has some experience in engaging in intelligence, this information is a heavy thing."

"It's the young master."

Yang Xiuqing ordered some details, and at dusk, Ye Youji sent someone over to talk to Yang Xiuqing.

"Young Master Yang, this is a letter from the general of my family." A soldier handed a letter to Yang Xiuqing.

Yang Xiuqing took a closer look, but looked helplessly: "Tell Brother Ye that I have my own plans, so that he can rest assured that he will be able to do whatever he wants." ”

It turned out that Ye Youji had already asked the emperor for an order, and he would be appointed as the general of Naping Yuan, which was different from what he said before, it turned out that after several disasters, the imperial court did not want to stimulate the Hu clan too much, but what made Yang Xiuqing strange was that Qi Yongzhong did not go to the clouds with him as Ye Youji said, but gave countless gold, silver and jewelry.

The soldier left, he left with Yang Xiuqing's words, and just when Yang Xiuqing was about to go to find out Qi Yongzhong's tone, he suddenly remembered that he was going to the banquet.

"Young master, the carriage is ready." As soon as Yang Xiuqing remembered to go to the banquet, Yang San came over to remind him.

When Yang Xiuqing took the carriage to the Great Prince's Mansion, in the Wei Mansion, Wei Bing resigned after several transfers, originally the emperor did not like him, and now because of Wei Xinxiang's affairs, he strongly opposed the eldest prince's daughter, and he was also hated by the eldest prince.

At this time in the house, Wei Xinxiang held an invitation letter, biting her chin, her eyes were red, and she looked at her grandmother pitifully: "Grandma, I, I,.....。 ”

"Xiang'er, you just go and see, if you fall in love with that young man, tell grandma immediately, grandma asked your father to propose."

Hearing the old lady say this, Wei Xinxiang wanted to cry, at that time, in order to deal with the eldest prince, she said to the public that she had a marriage contract with Yang Xiuqing, plus the eldest prince fell in love with herself, no young man in the whole capital dared to come to the door to propose marriage, this made the old lady so angry that she was about to jump into the well, if it wasn't for Wei Xinxiang's explanation, as soon as Yang Xiuqing entered Beijing, the old lady would have to go to Yang Xiuqing to discuss marriage.

Wei Bing sat down honestly, he was extremely distressed about his daughter, although he had no official status, but because he held the wealth of the eldest prince, he was not worried about what would happen, but he was also very familiar with his daughter's marriage.

"Daddy, Daddy, I want to become a monk."

"Well, when the eldest woman gets married, it is a matter of time before she gets married, don't worry, daughter, you go and pick a good person, and then your father will personally propose marriage for you."

"It's not about marrying someone, it's about marrying the Buddha in question." Wei Xinxiang chopped her feet and shouted.

"Bastard, I'm." Wei Bing was angry, but as soon as he finished shouting, the old lady smashed over with a cane: "Bastard thing, how can the old lady have a turtle son like you, she can't even teach her daughter well, and she is forced to become a monk, and the old lady beats you to death." ”

"Grandma, I, I, don't get married, I want to accompany grandma."
