Chapter 562: Cranes and Mussels Fight Two
readx;
Chen Yuan was very satisfied, this woman exuded the smell of a typical Korean beauty, and more importantly, the stick has no plastic surgery technology yet, so it should be pure natural. He slowly got up www.biquge.info pen "Fun" pavilion, with a smile on his face: "What's your name?" ”
The woman was slightly blessed according to the etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty: "My name is Park Huiling, I don't know if the adults can tell each other's names?" When our prince returns, I will be able to return. ”
Chen Yuan looked her up and down carefully: "My name is Chen Shimei, not an adult, you tell your prince, wait for him to come back and let him go to me, he knows how to find me." ”
Park Huiling saluted again: "Yes." ”
Chen Yuan left, and looked back at her before leaving, his eyes were full of smiles, and that smile made Park Huiling suddenly feel a chill hit her heart, and she suddenly had an illusion that she seemed to be a lonely sheep on the empty grassland, and the other party shot a wolf's gaze.
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he left.
Wang Hui has not come to him until now, which means that he does not take his horse without an official position seriously. This is the surname of the stick, you are his grandfather when you are used, and when you are not needed, how far can he throw you.
After stepping out of the post station and stepping into his own carriage, Chen Yuan said to Han Qi: "Let's go, go to the villa, let Xia Sui come and say that I have something to do with him." ”
Xia Sui is now a doctor of Yipin Xuanzheng.
With Chen Yuan's financial support, he not only restored the stability of Western Xinjiang, but also used those second-line soldiers to reclaim wasteland, making Western Xinjiang a major grain-producing area in the Great Song Dynasty.
Moreover, after the party was defeated, the Silk Road was once again connected, and Western Xinjiang had become a major channel for land trade in the Great Song Dynasty. Although it is not as rich as Jiangnan, it has also won the title of Jiangnan outside the country.
So he justifiably became a member of the court. But when Han Qi came to tell him that Chen Yuan wanted to see him, Xia Sui put down some trivial matters in his hand, immediately stepped into the carriage, and followed Han Qi all the way to Crescent Moon Villa.
"Shopkeeper, are you looking for me?" After Xia Sui came in, he sat down next to Chen Yuan, and he was not polite, he picked up the teacup and poured himself a glass of water first.
Chen Yuan waited for him to finish drinking before saying, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I want to know what those Koreans are doing here, and what they have done in Bianjing recently." ”
Xia Sui said: "That Wang Hui just said that they were busy with the war during the New Year, so they didn't come to communicate with the Song Dynasty. I haven't done anything recently, just to visit some important ministers in the court, and to travel the mountains and rivers. The emperor asked Lord Ouyang to accompany Na Wang Hui and take him to visit some places in Bianjing. ”
Chen Yuan pondered for a moment, he felt a little strange, it stands to reason that the stick and Xiao Yueben are in full swing now, how can they still be in the mood to come to the mountains and rivers? Intuition told Chen Yuan that something might have happened that he didn't know about.
In this era, there are no telephones or telegrams or anything, where the news will not be transmitted back so quickly, Chen Yuan is now thinking about whether he should make some preparations to change the plan.
Xia Sui saw that Chen Yuan was pondering, and he didn't think about him, he sat for a long time, knowing that after Chen Yuan raised his head and exhaled a breath, Xia Sui asked, "Shopkeeper, is there something wrong with things?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Our plans may be about to change, I'm sure that the Goguryeo princes look so leisurely, maybe they already have the certainty of ending the war, we must know what they rely on." ”
Xia Sui thought for a moment: "It's a waste of time to send someone to see, so let's send a letter to Chen Sheng, and then go find that Wang Hui tomorrow to see if we can find out their tone." ”
Chen Yuan said: "I have already asked him to come, but I have no official position now, I don't know if he will give me face, you can go and make an appointment for me, that is, tomorrow at noon, I will invite him here." ”
What are these Goryeo sticks up to? Chen Yuan has been paying close attention to the war in the past few years, and he knows that the losses of the Goryeo people are much larger than those of Dongying, and if it were not for his own control of the transportation of materials to Dongying, Goryeo would not have been able to support it until now.
Why are they so laid-back? What do they have to rely on? Chen Yuan really couldn't guess.
That Wang Hui obviously didn't take his face as a concubine in his eyes, Wang Hui came to get in touch with those important ministers of the Great Song Dynasty this time, Chen Yuan had already left the court, and Wang Hui didn't know how powerful he was.
So after hearing the news that Chen Yuan was looking for him at the beginning, he just answered casually, planning to wait until he had time to take a look, until Xia Sui sent the famous post, Wang Hui and Ouyang Xiu came to Crescent Moon Villa at noon the next day.
Chen Yuan didn't show the slightest displeasure about this, and was waiting for them early. After seeing Wang Hui get out of the carriage, he greeted him with a smile on his face: "The prince's visit really makes the small shop shine, and it is an honor to be here, prince, please inside." ”
Wang Hui nodded at Chen Yuan very arrogantly, his expression was full of contempt, they didn't learn anything else from the Great Song Dynasty, but the arrogance of the scholars and doctors was full of learning. Wang Ju was a little embarrassed behind him, but seeing that there was no unhappiness on Chen Yuan's face, he didn't pay attention.
Ouyang Xiu did clench his fist at Chen Yuanyi very politely: "Master Horse, business has been good recently, right?" ”
Chen Yuan smiled: "Thanks to Lord Ouyang's blessings, the Great Song Dynasty is now in peace and security, and my small business is becoming more and more smooth." ”
Ouyang Xiu tapped him with the folding fan in his hand: "Small business? The horse master is too modest. ”
Chen Yuan didn't care about Wang Hui's attitude, welcomed them into the back room, and after serving some tea and snacks first, Chen Yuan personally poured a cup for Wang Hui: "I invited the prince today to catch up, I think when I met the prince for the first time, I was a horse master below, and it is still now." I heard that the prince has become the prince of Goryeo, and he really made people embarrassed, which is really a waste of these years. ”
Ouyang Xiu glanced at Chen Yuan, he still knew a little about Chen Shimei, and knew that the more respectful Chen Shimei was, the more careful you should be. He wanted to say something, at least he thought he should know what Chen Shimei was going to do.
The emperor asked him to greet the prince of Goryeo, if this Chen Shimei really did something, he couldn't afford it.
Just as he was about to make a sound, Xia Sui kicked him lightly underneath, and Ouyang Xiu swallowed the words from his mouth again, his eyes staring at Chen Yuan, hoping to find the answer from Chen Yuan's face.
Wang Hui listened to Chen Shimei's words but was very happy: "Don't be modest, I know that you have been doing a lot of business recently, just our Goguryeo war, those ships are all from the shipyard of the horse master, and the emperor of your Song Dynasty will be your backer, and you will also be a rich figure in the future." ”
Wang Ju on the side came down with sweat on his face, he has been in the Great Song Dynasty for a few years, Wang Hui doesn't know Chen Yuan's ability, but he knows it very well. Wang Ju had already persuaded Wang Hui that Chen Shimei was a figure in the Song Dynasty, and he must not be ignored.
But Wang Hui didn't take this advice seriously, even if Chen Shimei stood in front of him today, he was still so arrogant. Wang Ju had the heart to persuade him, but he was afraid of offending the future emperor of his family, so he didn't say a word, and he was afraid that Chen Shimei would be angry.
In a blink of an eye, the dish was ready, and the two Song Dynasty singers sat next to them and sang softly, cheering for a few people. After three rounds of drinking, Chen Yuan looked at Wang Hui with his somewhat hazy eyes: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, there is something I want to ask Your Highness for help, I don't know if it's appropriate to say it now?" ”
Xia Sui on the side said very cooperatively: "Master Horse, but please speak out first, the prince is also a bold person, if he can help, the prince will definitely not refuse." ”
A high hat stuck Wang Hui, Wang Hui nodded: "Yes, you say it first, if I can do it, don't say anything else, even if you invite me to two meals, I should also help you, what is this called in the Song Dynasty, is it a courtesy?" ”
Chen Yuan laughed, and Xia Sui also smiled beside him.
Ouyang Xiu also wanted to laugh, but he felt that he couldn't laugh out loud, only to hear Chen Yuan say: "It's just a trivial matter for the prince, I have a batch of goods going to Goryeo next month, that batch of goods is very precious, and the war between Goryeo and Dongying really makes Zai Xia a little worried, I wonder if the prince can send a sailor warship to protect it?" Rest assured, Prince, I will never lose the brother of the sailor. ”
Wang Hui heard that this was the case, and immediately said: "I see, this is indeed a trivial matter, and you may not need to beg me at all." By next month, our war with the Dongying people should be over. At that time, ships should be able to move freely. ”
Chen Yuan made a look of great joy when he heard this: "Really? Will it be over next month? ”
Wang Hui felt that his words were doubted, and he was slightly unhappy: "How can what I said be false?" The people of Dongying have already sent messengers to ask us for peace, and by the time I arrived, their warship had already returned to Dongying, and we were considering asking them how much compensation they would be appropriate this time. ”
Chen Yuan's heart chuckled, and he looked at Wang Hui in a daze, Xiao Yue surrendered? How is this possible? Kublai Khan concentrated hundreds of thousands of troops to press up, they did not surrender, and at the end of World War II, they shouted that 100 million jade fragments would not surrender, at this time they would agree to surrender? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Wang Hui looked at his expression, and obviously saw that Chen Yuan didn't believe what he said, he was very angry at the moment, and put that anger on his face, if it wasn't for Ouyang Xiu and Xia Sui's faces, he would really have gone away.
Chen Yuan no longer had Wang Hui in his head, and before the banquet was finished, he stood up: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you drink slowly here, I have something to do when I go out, so I won't accompany you." ”
This attitude was extremely rude in the etiquette of the Song Dynasty. If Wang Hui came to Chen Yuan to drink, and he came up as the boss to drink two glasses, then there would be absolutely no problem to leave now. But now it was Chen Yuan who was entertaining, and he threw Wang Hui here, which made Wang Hui feel greatly insulted.
Without waiting for Chen Yuan to go out, he got up angrily: "Since the master of the horse is busy, then I won't bother below, just say goodbye." ”
Wang Ju and Ouyang Xiu still wanted to play a round, but Wang Hui had already walked out without looking back, and they could only follow.
When Wang Ju was leaving, he hugged his fist at Chen Yuan, but Ouyang Xiu said with some annoyance: "Shimei, what are you singing!" ”
Chen Yuan ignored him, he needed a cleaner environment, since Wang Hui was gone, he didn't have to leave, he sat down slowly: "I want to do something." ”
Ouyang Xiu glared at him, sighed and turned out, leaving only Chen Yuan and Xia Sui in the room. Xia Zhu leaned over: "Shopkeeper, what's wrong?" ”
Chen Yuan looked very depressed: "We are not ready, the supplies are not complete, and the army training is not good, but their war is really coming to an end." ”
Xia Sui was stunned: "Are the Koreans really going to win?" ”
Chen Yuan sneered: "Win the war? They're going to see Hades! Grandma's, I've seen stupid people, I've never seen them so stupid! What about Han Qi? Let Han Qi get into the carriage immediately, I'm going to see Di Qing! ”
