On the west side of Hangzhou Fucheng, a small courtyard is where the post station is located, in the past few years, there are not many people living here in the way or visiting officials, but it is not how simple it is, it is really too many places in Hangzhou city that are better than this, and just today, it seems to be lively, waiting for the carriage of the Mu family to arrive at the door, but found that someone has arrived earlier than them.

Entering the post house, someone took Mu Jiangping and Mu Tingyu inside, pushed the door in, both of them were stunned, and saw Li Huaizheng in the room talking and laughing with the nobles who came to Beijing, "Mu Gong is here?" Sit down. The father-in-law asked the two to sit on one side, "I think the two of them know each other, the son of the general of the northwest of Shangjing, and the most relied on by the saint among the nine internal guards. ”

Mu Jiangping reluctantly squeezed out a smile, from the moment he saw Li Huai at the entrance, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and the worry in his heart in the past few days suddenly found the source, "Naturally, when Li Gongzi took a stake in the Lengjia Cloth Factory, he wanted to do some business in the south, but unfortunately he didn't fulfill his wishes." ”

"I also want Xie Mugong to take care of it, otherwise I'm afraid that I will have to pay more." Li Huaiyi arched his hand, always with a smile on his face.

Listening to the tone of the two of them, a smile crossed his father-in-law's face, and he turned his head to look at Li Huai, "Li Gongzi, now that Mu Gong is also here, it is just right to confront you." ”

Mu Jiangping's face sank and looked at Li Huai, "The woman who was rescued by her father-in-law today was the original owner of the Leng family. ”

As soon as the words came out, Mu Jiangping's originally gloomy face instantly became surprised, the Leng family has been in the south for many years, this Leng Xuemei can be regarded as she grew up, if she has something to do with the internal guard, he will not believe it if he is killed, not to mention the National Security Bureau in Li Huai's mouth, he is even more unheard of.

"Don't be surprised that Mu Gong is a woman, she still has the ability, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to run such a big cloth business under you for so many years." Li Huai explained, Mu Jiangping didn't want to ask anything, "My father-in-law also knows that the internal guard I took over was originally dead in the hands of Fang La, so I am also on guard against the other party's action this time, most of the taxes of the imperial court are from several state capitals in the south, Fang La occupies the coast, and has contacts with foreign peoples, he will inevitably be a scourge in the future, in this case, I always want to make some layouts, I originally wanted to use this time to help the prince do something, but it backfired, but let Mu Gong rob the business." ”

Li Huai looked at the two of them with a wry smile, "I don't know the depth of this matter, don't think about it too much." Li Huai said politely, but Mu Jiangping was a little depressed, but it was not easy to attack, so he could only force a smile, "But it also happened, a few days ago, she didn't know what the reason was to offend Young Master Mu, and he invited her to a dilapidated house outside the city, I took into account Leng Xuemei's identity, so I asked people to take a look, but I didn't expect my subordinates to have a conflict with Young Master Mu's guards." ”

At this point, Mu Jiangping understood the general idea of the matter, at the beginning, the man in black in Mu Xiaohaikou was actually the person of the internal guard, and his own guard obviously fell into the hands of the other party.

"Li Gongzi, what does this mean?" Mu Jiangping said coldly, although the internal guards are not easy to mess with, but with the status of the Mu family in Jiangnan, they are not afraid of them making trouble, "Do you want to stand up for the Leng family?" ”

"Mu Gong misunderstood, the younger generation is still clearly divided between official and private affairs, if it's just that, it doesn't matter." Li Huai looked at Mu Jiangping opposite with an innocent face, and said to his father-in-law, "Today, when my father-in-law rescued Leng Xuemei, didn't he also see someone fleeing from the boat?" ”

"Exactly, how? They are not the people of the inner guard? ”

"Naturally not, among the guards of Mu Gongzi that night, there was Fang La's meticulous work, they mistakenly thought that they had fallen into the trap of our internal guards, so they suddenly made a mistake and took Leng Xuemei as a hostage, I have been looking for a long time in the past few days, but I didn't expect to be rescued by my father-in-law."

"Indeed, when the woman was rescued by me, she also said the same thing, saying that the Mu family had a connection with Fang La, and the relationship was very big at this time, so the miscellaneous family asked Li Gongzi to come over overnight."

The words of the two suddenly exploded in Mu Jiangping's heart, to say that Fang La in the south, in recent years, first rebelled, and then occupied several state capitals, and then established himself as a country, in the eyes of the imperial court, it is naturally an unforgivable crime, but in the eyes of several big clans in the south, but it is also the power of connection, not to mention that the other party controls the lifeblood of many maritime merchants, compared to the weak Hua Dynasty, the Holy Father does things in a regular manner, but it can make them trust more, one comes and goes, first business, and then the tacit understanding between each other.

The old man just wanted to explain a few words, but the father-in-law opened his mouth first, "Don't worry about Mu Gongzi first, Li Gongzi said this, it is also well-founded, just two days ago, through the questioning of several guards under Mu Gongzi, the internal guard had copied a stronghold of Fang La in Hangzhou City, and happened to meet Pang Wanchun, but the other party was skilled, and they didn't catch anyone, but they caught an accomplice, a woman named Su Meier." ”

"Su Mei'er? This ......" The old man was dumbfounded, and originally wanted to defend a few words, but he didn't even know what to say for a while, "If Mu Gong doesn't believe it, people are outside, and he wants to see it?" Li Huaigang wanted to have someone bring people over, but Mu Gong shook his head, "No need." ”

"Father-in-law, Li Gongzi, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly." When things came to the current situation, the old man figured it out, he originally thought that snatching the list of Shangjing would cut off all the opportunities of the Li family in the south, but he didn't expect that this was just a tight spell imposed on him by the other party, and then it was his son's life lawsuit, and now he was contacted by Fang La, and he was forced to a desperate place step by step.

"Mu Gong misunderstood, the younger generation said at the beginning, this prince formed a new army, I can't do the cloth business alone, now the Mu family has taken over, but it is doing well, the prince will definitely rely on it in the future, but this Fang La is a thief after all, although it has been honest in the past few years, but in the future, it will either be a war, or like Liangshan, and Mu Gong's relationship with it is not a big deal." Li Huai smiled, but the father-in-law on the other side closed his eyes, looking like he didn't care about himself, "What I want is also a promise from Mu Gong." ”

"Say it."

"In the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou, the Leng family will be my branch of Hongji in the future, and the Mu family will not care about the affairs on the cloth, of course, the benefits that should be there will never be less, I hope that Mu Gong will cooperate......" The old man frowned, and Mu Tingyu behind him also glared angrily, and the two of them only really saw each other's means until now.
