The night was already very deep, shining in the courtyard, the fragrant rape flowers had already floated over, Zhao Dezhao raised his head and glanced at Wu Lingqing, he glanced at his room in the courtyard again, and immediately said: "It's so late at night today, just put the matter of seeing He Zheng at noon tomorrow, it's in the Guangwei Restaurant in the south of the city, and I have to bother you to run to him tonight."

Wu Lingqing glanced into the courtyard, he pursed his lips and smiled, patted Zhao Dezhao's shoulder and said, "Brother is good, tonight is not shallow!"

Zhao Dezhao looked embarrassed, but then changed his expression, he patted Wu Lingqing's back and said meaningfully: "Haha, martial madman, what you are saying is that you don't have Yanfu to enjoy, and you are envious, jealous and hateful in your heart?" ”

Wu Lingqing's expression was a little stiff, he wiped a handful of cold sweat, shook his head with a wry smile, "......"

Zhao Dezhao talked to Wu Lingqing for a while, Zhao Dezhao immediately returned to the house, and Wu Lingqing drove away on a jujube red horse.

Zhao Dezhao entered the house and looked at the sleeping Zhou Jiamin, he was stunned, at this time Zhou Jiamin turned his head, his side face was facing outward, a jade leg was exposed outside the quilt, and a sweet smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Dezhao smiled slyly, and suddenly remembered the scene in the rape field under the moonlight.

……

At noon the next day, the weather was a little stuffy, and in the Tianzi box in the Guangwei Restaurant, a middle-aged man wearing a round-necked robe was sitting cross-legged on the sandalwood couch, with a small goatee on his chin, his face was sunburned into a healthy wheat color because of the frequent rush, and his two small eyes were constantly looking at everything in the restaurant.

The furnishings of this box are the best and most luxurious in the Tianzihao, the ground is covered with wool carpets from the big food, there are many calligraphy and paintings of celebrities in the world hanging on the walls, the tables and chairs are made of sandalwood, and there are several styles, especially the simple official hat chair and round table, it seems that Wei Wang Chitose has spent a lot of thought.

He Zheng's hand gently touched the surface of the table, the tentacles were smooth, and the memory went back to the past little by little, he remembered something a few years ago, when he was just a vendor selling herbal tea on the street, he sold the ancestral herbal tea of the He family, but by chance he met the current Wei Wang Chitose, Wei Wang was also full of praise after drinking his own herbal tea, and then gave himself a lot of suggestions, and finally gave himself a new herbal tea recipe, and Wei Wang according to his own name, Naming his herbal tea "He Qizheng", although He Zheng didn't know the meaning of the three words "He Qizheng", but because it was given by the King of Wei, He Zheng was grateful to Dade and felt that his ancestral tomb was smoking for eighteen generations.

He Zhengxin said, in the past, he was just an ordinary trader wearing cloth clothes and pushing a cart to sell herbal tea on the side of the street, but now he has become a rich man, wearing silk and satin that he did not wear before, and there are countless grange properties, many wives and concubines, and many maidservants under him, just like a landlord.

Calculating the days, he has been away from Kaifeng for ten years, these years have hardly set foot on the land of the Great Song Dynasty, he has a fleet under his hands, these years has been in accordance with the instructions of the King of Wei to do business overseas, the Nanyang in the mouth of the King of Wei is a place full of gold, and he has been to Champa, Borneo, Dashi and other countries in the past ten years, his herbal tea business has also begun to expand overseas, through herbal tea, he has gathered countless wealth, and the King of Wei is also his own partner, major shareholder.

Ten years, this is the first time he set foot on the homeland of Kaifeng, everything he saw in Kaifeng today opened his eyes, Kaifeng is changing too fast, a lot of new things have undergone earth-shaking changes, can be described as changing with each passing day.

He Zheng was thinking about it when there was a sound of footsteps outside the box door at this moment.

He Zheng immediately got up from the couch, then respectfully walked to the door and pulled the door open.

The door of the box was opened, and a young man walked in, looking very powerful, and when He Zheng was about to take a closer look at the young man in front of him, the young man spoke: "Shopkeeper He, you have been out for ten years, and you have finally returned." ”

He Zheng immediately straightened up respectfully, and immediately arched his hand: "He Zheng has seen His Royal Highness King Wei, thank you for your kindness, He Zheng has been staying overseas for several years, and now he is finally able to come back." ”

Zhao Dezhao was a little apologetic, He Zheng hadn't seen his family for a long time because of the busy work in the herbal tea business and overseas market development in the past few years, Zhao Dezhao didn't know what to say, and when he was about to speak, He Zheng spoke.

When He Zheng came, he brought a few thick account books, although he didn't know a few big characters, but the bookkeeper under his hand has always recorded some things on it, and over the years, the account books have also had several thick books, all of which are trade books on that route.

He Zheng pointed to the ten thick account books in the corner, and then said: "Your Highness, the account books of the past ten years are here, Your Highness, please read them." ”

When Zhao Dezhao saw those account books, he immediately went to the corner of the wall, and then bent down and picked up a copy from the ground.

The account book is very heavy, ordinary people have a hard time holding one hand, Zhao Dezhao took the account book, just flipped it slightly, and only browsed a few numbers on it, most of these numbers are not the business of buying and selling herbal tea, and the rest are gold, jewelry, rhino horn, hawksbill turtles, pearls and other precious things, and the few dhows that returned last time were brought by the ship.

Zhao Dezhao found from the account books that Heqizheng herbal tea has been selling well overseas over the years, and there are also some branches in the Great Song Dynasty, he said: "Shopkeeper He, your herbal tea sells well, it seems that the name of Heqizheng is worth a lot of money." ”

He Zheng was a little flattered when he heard this, he was very happy in his heart, and said: "Your Highness has praised it, the recipe for this herbal tea is still provided by Your Highness, and He Zheng is just running errands for Your Highness." ”

Zhao Dezhao said: "This king didn't expect this herbal tea to sell so hot. Zhao Dezhao said in his heart: The recipe of this herbal tea is just borrowed from the later generations of Jia Duo Bao, Wang Lao Ji and He Qizheng, although the taste is not so positive, but the taste is not much different from Jia Duo Bao, he feels that this taste is still suitable for most tastes.

As for the account book, it is still handed over to others, he saw that He Zheng had already handed over the account book to him, Zhao Dezhao said happily: "He Zheng, you have worked hard all these years, you have done a good job overseas, you are a great hero of this king." Now that the hero is back, you should treat yourself well, you and your family may not have seen each other for a long time, and you should go home and have a look at this time. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." He Zheng burst into tears with gratitude, in fact, if it weren't for the promotion and appreciation of King Wei Chitose back then, He Zheng would not have gotten into such a good position, but he had other things, it was about his younger brother He You, he knew from Wu Lingqing's mouth that his younger brother He You was in Youzhou City, so He Zheng asked, "Your Highness, how is my Erlang now?" ”

Zhao Dezhao said: "There is no news from Youzhou now, but how can it be safe, the affairs of Youzhou are under control." ”

"Since His Highness has said so, I am relieved." He Zheng nodded, and then immediately retreated.

Zhao Dezhao immediately instructed the little nobleman outside the house to immediately move all these account books back to the Wei Palace, and he planned to send a few account room gentlemen to count the account books of the past ten years, so that he would have a good bottom in his heart.

The account books have been moved back to the Wei Palace, and there are two bookkeepers who check these account books in batches.

As for He Zheng, he returned to his mansion

Far away in Youdu Mansion, after noon, the weather was a little hot, in the old place of Sanyuan Inn, Yang Zan and Leng Wu took a bowl of herbal tea from Xiao Er and drank it.

Leng Wu drank this kind of tea for the first time, she took a sip, and felt that this sip of tea was very good, but it was not as hot as it had just been brewed, and some of the black tea juice gave people a sweet taste.

At this moment, a young man in his twenties ran in from outside the house, and when he saw Yang Zan, he immediately said, "How have you ever seen Commander Yang, and I have seen Leng Niangzi." ”

"What's the matter, is this tea sold by your brother?" Leng Wu suddenly said casually.

He You immediately said: "Hui Leng Niangzi, this tea is sold by my brother, but my brother has not returned overseas for the past ten years." ”

"Oh?" Leng Wu suddenly became interested, she continued to ask what she had, while Yang Zan on the side shook his head and signaled Leng Wu.

Leng Wu was embarrassed and shy, and said, "Brother Zan, I'm really embarrassed." ”

He You on the side was a little embarrassed, and Leng Wu saw that He You still had something to say, so she immediately closed her mouth and stopped talking.

He You immediately said: "Commander Qiqi, Xiao Di has gathered a lot of his subordinates today, and they have arrived at a Guiyun Inn in the city at this time, and they will carry out everything according to the commander's orders at night." ”

"I'm up to you for this." Yang Zan turned his head and looked at Leng Wu on the side.

After He Youyu went out, he immediately hurried to the Guiyun Inn.

In the afternoon, there was a gust of wind blowing hurriedly, and the dark clouds in the sky were also drifting, after Xiao Yanyan came out of Xiao's mansion, she was strolling all the way, she was holding her skirt with both hands, not knowing what to do.

Today, the news of Black Stone Ridge has been delivered in the mansion, and this letter was written by Xiao Siwen.

Xiao Yanyan's heart has relaxed after reading it, and her heart has been at peace at this moment, but what surprised her even more was that Xiao Siwen mentioned in the letter that he had sent someone to Kaifeng to investigate all the information about "Zhao Zhao", Xiao Yanyan was also stunned, she heard that she said that "Zhao Zhao" was the Wei King of the Song Kingdom, Xiao Yanyan was a little surprised, and a little disappointed.

After so many years, she has always pretended to be that person in her heart, but that person doesn't know if there is a place for herself in her heart.

Fate is so wonderful, they are each from an enemy country.

Xiao Yanyan didn't know what to do, she kept her head down and walked.
