482 Puzzle

On the deck, looking at Chu Ruotong, the little girl who was running, listening to her crisp and lively laughter, a knowing smile appeared on Chu Haoyu's face. This trip to Beijing, Chu Haoyu couldn't stand the entanglement of the little girl Chu Ruotong, and took her mother and daughter by his side. Chen Fangfei is a talented woman who has been yearning for Yanyu Jiangnan since she was a child, and this time she can follow Chu Haoyu to Jiangnan, and she also has an unconcealable joy, as for her beloved son Chu Hongchen, Chu Haoyu ruthlessly left him in the capital to accompany his mother.

There is also a three- or four-year-old little girl beside Chu Ruotong, but her face is slightly pale, and she is less lively than Chu Ruotong but more bookish, it is Zhou Chu's daughter Zhou Qingyou, but maybe it is dyed by Chu Ruotong, a smile appears on her little face from time to time, and Zhou Chu who sees it also has a smile, and at the same time, her heart is becoming more and more sour.

Seeing Zhou Chu's expression, Chu Haoyu didn't know what he was worried about, but he was a prince who could decide the life and death of many people, but it was not that the king of Hades was helpless before he was born, old, sick and died. Shaking his head, Chu Haoyu let out a helpless sigh, regretting matching Zhou Chu and Zhang Yiyi for the first time.

Back then, Zhang Jun'er was provoked by the Heavenly Thorn Rebel to rob Chu Haoyu but fell to death, Zhang Jiabao was ambushed by the Heavenly Thorn Rebel when he went to ask for an explanation, and only Zhang Yiyi survived by luck, but she was congenitally weak and met with this great tragedy, especially when she fell into the water and fell into the root of the disease for a day, even the divine doctor Li Sihan could not do anything. Chu Haoyu made a whimsical match between Zhou Chu and Zhang Yiyi, not wanting the two to get along very happily, Zhang Yiyi even ignored Dr. Li's persuasion to conceive and give birth to a daughter in October, and now that his life is about to end, Zhou Chu just wants to take Zhang Yiyi to take one last look at the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.

Silent for a moment, Chu Haoyu didn't know how to comfort Zhou Chu, so he could only hold up the teacup, and at this moment, the cheerful laughter of his beloved daughter Chu Ruotong sounded, shouting: "Hooked, giggle......" In the smug laughter, Chu Ruotong lifted the fishing rod and wanted to collect the fish, but maybe the fish was too big, or maybe her strength was too small, and her small body kept swaying with the fishing rod.

After failing to pull the fish out of the water for half a day, Chu Ruotong was not discouraged but became more and more excited, shouting: "Father, come and help Tong'er, I have caught a big fish." ”

Hearing Chu Ruotong's shout, Chu Haoyu stood up with a smile, held her hands and lifted the fishing rod. This is a big grass carp weighing more than ten pounds, and it suddenly left the water and struggled even more happily, the fishing rod was trembling, but Xiao Ruotong became more and more excited, his face and eyes were full of smiles, and at the same time he opened his mouth and asked: "Father, Tong'er is amazing, such a big fish." ”

Looking at Chu Ruotong's talking eyes, Chu Haoyu smiled: "Tong'er is the most powerful, my father has never caught such a big fish, and I will fish for my father every day in the future, how about it?" ”

While speaking, Chu Haoyu had already lifted the fish to the deck, and Sun Hou immediately came over and took the fish off and put it in the fish basket, and then hung the bait. After staring at his father Chu Haoyu for a moment, Chu Ruotong laughed again and shouted: "Okay, Tong'er fishes for her father and mother to eat, as well as Uncle Zhou, Youyou, oh, oh!" In the smug shout, Chu Ruotong threw the hook into the water again, and at the same time sat down and put away his smile to make a concentrated fishing appearance, and Chu Haoyu smiled again.

Walking back to the recliner and sitting down, Chu Haoyu picked up the teacup and played with it carefully, and at the same time opened his mouth and said: "Tong'er is lively, but she looks like this king when he was a child." Back then, Yuan Bo, Yuan Jing, Yuan Fei, the four of us were in trouble in the palace, but they were also full of laughter, and I think this is the reason why my father was unwilling to punish us. Brother Zhou, Yoyo is young at the age of being naughty and playful, I thought I could stay with Tong'er more. ”

Zhou Chu didn't understand what Chu Haoyu meant, so he finally nodded and said, "Then it's troublesome for the Seventh Prince." ”

Looking at Zhou Chu, Chu Haoyu said with a smile: "Why is Brother Zhou so polite?" ”

Looking at Chu Haoyu for a moment, Zhou Chu suddenly laughed, and at the same time changed the topic and said: "In the past two days, I have seen that the seventh prince has been preoccupied, are you worried about the trip to Jiangnan?" ”

Chu Haoyu nodded, opened his mouth and asked, "I was asking Brother Zhou to teach me." ”

With a chuckle, Zhou Chu opened his mouth and asked, "Didn't the Seventh Prince have already made arrangements?" ”

Chu Haoyu didn't deny it, sorted out his thoughts a little and opened his mouth to say: "The cause of this trip to Jiangnan was Old Man Qian, but now it seems that things are getting more and more complicated. The people of Qi'an County, Huainan Province, the people captured the county government, and Dong Dachen, the Taishou of Qi'an County, sent a large army to quell the rebellion, with hundreds of dead and wounded, and Yang Linggong, the governor of Huainan Province, colluded with the important ministers of the court to hide and not report it. ”

After thinking for a while, Zhou Chu nodded and said, "It's not unreasonable for Childe to be worried. The world has been stable for more than 20 years, Huainan and Jiangnan are both rich places, this popular uprising is thought to have a reason that we don't know, but it is the governor of the second grade, colluding with the important ministers of the court to hide and not report, don't you know the consequences? ”

Seeing Zhou Chu's meaningful gaze, Chu Haoyu knew that he couldn't hide it, so he opened his mouth and said: "The eldest brother arranged for three hundred forbidden troops to arrest Yang Linggong and return to Beijing, and at the same time ordered Shen Cewei and his team to rush to Guangling County, and also summoned Jiangnan Province, Henan Province, and Lingnan Province to be strictly guarded. ”

Looking at Chu Haoyu, Zhou Chu opened his mouth and asked, "Is it really so serious?" ”

Chu Haoyu shook his head and said, "I don't know, but the eldest brother has always been cautious in doing things and takes precautions." After a slight pause at this, Chu Haoyu continued: "I ordered Li Huairen to take all the way to Qi'an County to Anmin, and at the same time thoroughly investigate the rule of Huainan officials. Li Huairen is sleek and good, and An Min is indeed a good hand, but if he wants to vigorously rectify the rule of officials, he needs a whip, so the eldest brother allowed him to be the governor of Huainan Province, plus Zonggu Cheng, should be able to clear the rule of Huainan Province. After pausing again, a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "If something really happens, this king will bring the Divine Captain and tens of thousands of troops of Jiang Nanwei into Huainan." ”

Shaking his head, Zhou Chu opened his mouth and said, "The Seventh Prince is too worried, and it can't reach that point." ”

Chu Haoyu said: "I hope this king is too worried." There are many clans in Jiangnan, most of them chose to surrender after Xie Cheng's defeat that year, and the emperor reused the Jiangnan clan instead of moving them in order to appease Jiangnan, which made Jiangnan recover quickly, but after more than ten years, these clans climbed and staggered to form a big net, and they did not dare to move lightly with the ability of the eldest brother. Speaking of this, showing a look that seemed to be smiling, Chu Haoyu shook his head and said: "Actually, the eldest brother transferred Shen Du to Jiangnan to deal with today's situation, I don't want this delay to be six or seven years, and Old Man Qian can really survive." Hmph, now this king is wondering if Old Man Qian is deliberately showing weakness, if so, this game of chess is getting more and more interesting. ”

Seeing Chu Haoyu's eyebrows raised with a proud expression, Zhou Chu chuckled lightly and said: "Looking at the look of the Seventh Prince, it seems that he has returned to Mobei again, and it is so fast, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye." Shaking his head, the smile on Zhou Chu's face gradually dissipated, his eyes became deeper and deeper, and he said slowly: "Old Man Qian is talented, he must be advancing by retreating, but Zhou has still not been able to see through Old Man Qian's layout for several years." After the world was pacified, the Qian family became one of the four great families by virtue of the financial resources all over the world, even the first emperor also relied on the Qian family, and promoted Li Tiannian to the left servant of the household department, and later became the head of the household department and sat for more than ten years, and deserved to be the great housekeeper of the imperial court. ”

Chu Haoyu nodded, while Zhou Chu continued: "The Qian family has the wealth of the country, and there is a deep-rooted Li family in the court, and it was unparalleled for a while, until His Majesty pacified Mobei, and the old man Qian began to cultivate obscurity very interestingly, and even lay on the sickbed for a long time, but Zhou has always been puzzled about the attitude of the old man Qian in the heir. The old man Qian was sick, the eldest Qian Lingyun also withdrew from the Qian family's business and concentrated on taking care of the old man, the second Qian Sifang inherited the grain store and the tea shop, the third Qian Susu took over the Qinglou and the casino, and the fourth Qian Yuan controlled the jade and pawn business. These three things are the foundation of the Qian family, I am afraid that except for the brothers of the Qian family, no one knows how much silver they earn for the Qian family, so that the second Qian Sifang, the third Qian Susu, and the fourth Qian Yuan are already full-fledged, and no one is willing to give in, so no matter who inherits the family, there will definitely be right and wrong. ”

With a light hum, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "This king is also wondering what Old Man Qian means? Instead of having an heir, he let the brothers grow bigger, and now, there is inevitably a dispute. After a pause at this, Chu Haoyu added another sentence and said, "I'm afraid that from now on, the Qian family will exist in name only." ”

Chu Haoyu's trip to Jiangnan this time was to solve the problem of the Qian family, and the Qian family had too much influence on the world's businessmen, which was not what the Chu family was willing to see, so Chu Haoyu was thinking about weakening the strength of the Qian family and weakening the influence of the Qian family.

Zhou Chu couldn't be clearer about this, and opened his mouth after a moment of silence and said: "Old man Qian is talented, I have long seen through this, but now ten years have passed, he has not set up an heir, and even watched the Qian brothers become bigger, this move, Zhou really can't guess the reason." Shaking his head, Zhou Chu sighed lightly and picked up the teacup, tasted it for a moment and suddenly asked, "Seventh Prince, who will you choose to inherit the Qian family?" ”

Thinking of something he couldn't understand, Chu Haoyu quickly threw it into his mind, looked at Zhou Chu with a smile and said, "Brother Zhou already has the answer, why bother asking this king again?" Of course, it's the eldest son and the eldest grandson. ”

Qian Buwei's eldest son Qian Lingyun was assassinated and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, so it can only be his eldest grandson Qian Changhai. At this moment, Chu Haoyu continued: "The brothers of the Qian family, the boss Qian Lingyun at least has money for seven points, it seems that he is taking care of the old man Qian and no longer asks about the business of the Qian family, but this king suspects that the old man Qian has handed over Kong to him, and said to the old man of the Qian family, Kong is the root, and no matter how big the business is, it is just a branch, so as long as Kong is here, the Qian family will not perish." Perhaps, this is the reason why the Heavenly Thorn stabbed Qian Lingyun, they had already selected one of the brothers of the Qian family to inherit the Qian family, but unfortunately it was not Qian Lingyun. ”

In the past four or five years, Chu Haoyu has completely taken over the Chu family Tianwei, and Zhou Chu, as Chu Haoyu's confidant and strategist, has also been exposed to many things to know the existence of Qian Jiakong. After thinking for a moment, Zhou Chu shook his head and said, "Maybe." ”

Seeing Zhou Chu's expression, Chu Haoyu asked with a smile, "Why does Brother Zhou have such an expression?" ”

Zhou Chu replied slowly: "It shouldn't be so simple, Zhou thought that Old Man Qian must have made arrangements, but we couldn't guess it." ”
