The people of Hengshan Wangfu chased Su Ren to Cuixiang Building, which made Su Ren a little surprised. In his impression, after the last threat, Liu Ci would definitely not want to see him again, at least he would not send someone to invite him. But this strange thing happened.

The person who came was Liu Ci's inner servant, this person Su Ren had seen, and he was regarded as Liu Ci's absolute confidant, and whoever saw it would salute him for three points, even if it was Queen Xu Lai, he was polite to this person. Today, he actually treated Su Ren with courtesy, so that those who knew this person on the second floor of Cuixiang Building were all curious about Su Ren's identity.

"Some time ago, the king was deceived by the villain and almost ruined the court's plan, these days the king thinks about it, and feels that it shouldn't be! Thanks to Su Zhonglang's timely advice, he did not let the king do anything wrong, and today the king specially set up a banquet in the palace, thank Su Zhonglang for his advice, let the old slave want to invite, and hope that Su Zhonglang will go to the banquet in the face of the king is the emperor, and the king will personally thank Su Zhonglang. ”

An old servant in his fifties and sixties whispered to a hairy child in his early twenties, and when the people next to him saw what it felt, Su Renxian felt psychologically unbearable. Hurriedly helped the waiter up: "The waiter is like this, I can't stand it below, since it is the king's recruitment, I will go in the next place, and please wait for the waiter, and settle these friends in the next place and immediately go with the waiter, okay?" ”

The old waiter hurriedly said: "Don't be in a hurry, Su Zhonglang is casual, and the villain is waiting outside the door." ”

The carriage was ready, and even Huang Shisan and Manniu had special horses to pick them up, such a high-standard courtesy was not available when Su Ren first came to Hengshan. Before turning the corner of the street where the palace was located, Su Ren noticed that the street had been emptied, cleaned, and sprinkled with water. If there were guards and people kneeling on the ground on both sides, it would be no different from the emperor going out on patrol.

Liu Ci stood at the foot of the steps in front of the door, which was called descending to greet each other, which was the highest courtesy in ancient times. Personally opened the carriage curtain for Su Ren, Liu Ci smiled all over his face: "Su Zhonglang is finally here, this king is still worried that Su Zhonglang will be angry, and he planned to invite him in person, but he was stopped by a few of them, but fortunately, Lord Su Zhonglang didn't take those unhappiness to heart, and this king was relieved." ”

Su Ren was startled when he saw the curtain of the carriage open, revealing Liu Ci's face, and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, and was about to pay a big salute: "How can you let the king be like this?" ”

Liu Ci pulled Su Ren up: "Ziheng does not blame the king, the king is grateful, and today he made a special trip to apologize to Ziheng, the Jianghuai matter was made by Han Yan, and almost ruined the court's plan, if it weren't for Ziheng's strong persuasion, and said for this king in front of His Majesty, maybe the will to ask the guilt has arrived in front of him, come on, please!" ”

Singing, dancing, and wine banquets are all of the highest grade, and large pieces of beef are put on the table, with aroma, and your mouth will water when you smell it. Eating meat is also particular, the highest specification is venison, but this meat can only be eaten by the emperor, and no one dares to compete with the emperor. Ordinary people, with a little money, eat mutton. Pork is considered cheap meat, and only the lowest people will eat it once in a while.

Beef is absolutely not edible in ordinary people's homes, and if you eat it, you will be punished severely, and you will be killed. As the most important production tool, cattle have always been valued and relied on by the ancients, and are even considered to be the mouths of their own families. Killing an ox is like killing someone, and eating beef is like eating a man. But this is the Hengshan Palace, as the emperor of Hengshan Kingdom, if it weren't for Su Ren's face, no one would dare to say a word if he ate venison.

While watching singing and dancing, eating meat and drinking wine, the atmosphere quickly came up. There are a lot of accompanying guests today, such as Xi Ci, the minister of state, Wei Qiang, the imperial history, and even the son Liu Shuang and the second son Liu Xiao have been present. There was a singing and dancing scene as far as the eye could see, but Su Ren found a clue from it.

After a dance, the singer retreated. Liu Ci raised his glass: "Everyone, Ziheng opened up the territory for my Han Dynasty, it is really a model for young people, my Han Dynasty has been founded for a hundred years, Nanyue is the biggest disaster in the south, was destroyed by Ziheng in one dynasty, captured the four kings of the Yue people, such a great achievement, should be Zihenghe!" Congratulations to the big man! ”

Everyone hurriedly agreed, and Su Ren was not polite, and took a drink from the wine glass. Liu Ci drank the wine with a smile, and then said: "The matter of the return of 200,000 Yue people is on Ziheng's shoulders, and this king is also surnamed Liu, so naturally he should also share the worries for His Majesty for the imperial court. ”

Su Ren hurriedly got up and bowed to Liu Ci: "The king is worried about the country, and he will make a decision to show His Majesty and ask for credit for the king." ”

Liu Ci waved his hand: "No, no, no, this king said, these lands will be given to Ziheng, let Ziheng settle the Yue people, and the court will count the credit, and it should be Ziheng!" Ziheng don't be confused, this is a little bit of the king's heart, Ziheng came to my Hengshan country and Shuang'er is a brother, this king will drag a big let Ziheng call him an uncle, right? Hehehe, the 10,000 dumps of land should be regarded as a meeting gift from me, who is an uncle, to Ziheng. ”

"This ......, in that case, little nephew thanks the king!"

"Hahaha! I appreciate Ziheng's point, happy, come, drink! ”

Liu gave such a large amount of blood, and what he asked for must be great. However, not a word was said until the end of the banquet. When he went out, Liu Shuang personally sent Su Ren out, helped Su Ren into the carriage, and got in.

Su Ren glanced back: "Shizi, ...... you?" ”

Liu Shuang smiled: "My father asked me to send Brother Su back to the inn, Brother Su drank a little more today, and I don't feel at ease on the road." ”

"Then there is Lao Shizi."

The carriage started, and the atmosphere in the car was very silent, Su Ren and Liu Shuang, you look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks. Seeing that he was about to arrive at the inn, Su Ren glanced at Liu Shuang: "If the prince doesn't say anything, I'll be there." ”

"You see that?"

"The king used 10,000 yuan of land to buy my mouth, but I didn't expect my mouth to be so valuable! According to the current land price of Jianghuai, it will cost 100 yuan for a dump, which is 1 million yuan, not a decimal. ”

"Brother Su......"

"Don't worry, eat people with short mouths, take people softly, eat and take today, you will do your best!" Su Ren leaned on the carriage, his hands resting behind his head, and he was very leisurely: "Isn't the king afraid that His Majesty will be blamed for Han Yan's matter?" This little favor can still be helped. ”

Liu Shuang nodded: "Since that's the case, I won't say much, everything depends on Brother Su." ”

Su Ren smiled: "I'm curious now, who came up with such an idea for the king?" To tell the truth, it is better to give it to me directly to Your Majesty, although 10,000 is not much, it can almost accommodate seven or eight thousand Yue people, Hengshan Country is a feudal country, and the land is dedicated to the imperial court, which in itself shows the attitude of the king, and Your Majesty is naturally very happy. ”

Liu Shuang said: "This plan should be Xi Ci's idea, this should be the first step, I guess it's not just to eliminate Han Yan's influence." ”

"Oh? And the inside story? Let's talk about it. ”

Liu Shuang shook his head: "It's hard to say, but according to my estimate, I'm afraid that my father is unwilling to go to Chang'an to meet him, this 10,000 dumps of land is just paving the way, and Brother Su's good things are coming!" By the way, since Brother Su has this 10,000 dumps of land, are my ......? ”

"Your father is your father, you are you, this is not to be confused."

"Hahahaha, Brother Su is really from a businessman, and this account is shrewd! Well, my land will be given to you! ”

Liu Shuang finally got smart once, in the next few days, Liu Ci had a big banquet for Su Ren for three days and a small banquet for two days, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas that Hengshan Country could get his hands on took turns to test Su Ren's sense of taste. Liu Ci also keeps sending things, gold, silver, jewelry, horses, and horses, as long as Su Ren needs it, Liu Ci is not ambiguous. Three or five days later, Su Ren's assets in Hengshan Kingdom skyrocketed, and a rough estimate was almost worth 50 million yuan.

On the sixth day, after Liu Ci gave Su Ren a palace annex, he kept Su Ren at the end of the banquet. Mingwei actually knows that there is something to say. In the octagonal pavilion in the garden, Liu Ci, Xi Ci, and Su Ren sat down. With a wave of his hand, he drove everyone down, leaving only his henchmen waiting by his side.

Xi Ci glanced at Liu Ci and said to Su Ren with a smile: "Su Zhonglang settled 200,000 Yue people, I don't know how the progress is?" If there is any difficulty, the king will definitely help. ”

Su Ren arched his hand and said, "Thank you, King!" With the king's piece of land, a large number of materials were purchased from Hengshan Kingdom, and the progress was quite smooth, all of which were supported by the king and Hengshan Kingdom. ”

"That's good, hehe, I can contribute to the court, and this king is also very happy." Liu Ci glanced at Xi Ci after speaking.

Xi Ci immediately took over the conversation: "Oh, it is indeed not easy to settle the Yue people, not to mention Su Zhonglang's exhaustion, even our king is also unable to sleep at night, in order to raise food, seeds, farm tools, etc. for the Yue people, he tried his best to almost fall ill, but this year is the year of the king to meet the Son of Heaven, from Hengshan Kingdom to Chang'an is a long way, I am worried that the king has a mistake on the road, how can Hengshan Kingdom be born?" Woowoo woo ......"

Liu Ci said: "What is this, it is the duty of a human minister to meet the angels, and this king is the courtier of His Majesty the descendants of the Han Dynasty, even if he dies on the road, he must fulfill the way of a human minister!" ”

Xi Ci cried and worshiped on the ground: "The king thinks twice! Hengshan has today's situation, and the king is virtuous, and the ministers will jointly report to His Majesty, and implore His Majesty to exempt the king from the audience. ”

"Nonsense! This king has made up his mind, so you don't need to say more! ”

Su Ren has been watching from the side, this lord and a minister are really not acting very well, at most he is a second-rate movie star. Xi Ci cried without tears, although Liu Ci insisted again and again, those eyes kept glancing at Su Ren, and the impatience in his eyes was clear at a glance, for fear that Su Ren would not answer.

The more anxious Liu Ci became, the more Su Ren didn't answer, watching the two act. Xi Ci really couldn't go on, and said to Su Ren: "Su Zhonglang, the king's stay in Hengshan will be beneficial to your placement of the Yue people, and there is no harm to you, hurry up and persuade the king, please take care of your body, so as not to miss the court's plan to settle the Yue people!" ”

Xi Ci took the roll call, and Su Ren had to speak. Slowly put down the tea bowl and saluted Liu Ci, as soon as the word "king" came out, Xi Ci and Liu Ci both took a deep breath, as if they were prisoners waiting for the verdict to be announced.
