Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Dark Shadow Under the Moon
With roast goose fruit, as well as candles, on the seventh day of the seventh month, it was obvious that he was going to mourn, Sima Xiu's eyes were cold and cold when he looked at Concubine Duan, when he thought of his sister dying miserably, when he thought of the Queen Mother's tears almost every day, and when he thought that the poor child of the imperial sister actually wanted to live as a disgraceful identity, Sima Xiu's heart was even colder.
Sima Han was still noisy, which embarrassed Concubine Duan, she was out of shape for the first time, her eyes were flustered, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "The four princes are tired and talking nonsense today, Yue Nan and Yue Bei, don't take the four princes down to rest." ”
Yue Nan and Yue Bei are Duanfei's personal guards, and their skills are also superior, and now with Duanfei's order, although he was a little hesitant, he also strode forward, and one person grabbed one of Sima Han's arms, and before he could exert his strength, there seemed to be a cool ghostly voice behind him.
"Who dares to touch the Fourth Highness?" I don't know when, Leng Changxi had already stood up straight, his tone was light, but the black mask outlined his silhouette more and more majestic and inviolable, Yue Nan and Yue North were all stunned, and they were actually shocked by Leng Changxi's aura and such a sentence.
The corners of Leng Changxi's mouth raised evilly: "The emperor is still asking, you two are inevitably too anxious." "It's about Yue Nan and Yue Bei, but the implication is also to satirize Concubine Duan, who has been panicked.
The more panicked she was, the more horses and feet she exposed, the more suspicious Sima Xiu became.
Although Qin Yunuan was far away, she could see the movement on the table clearly, she turned her head to look at Qin Yuzhao, who was a little nervous, held Qin Yuzhao's small hand in her hand, and gently pinched it to put her mind at ease.
Sima Xiu tightened his eyebrows, it seems that he is ready to investigate, but unfortunately, there is still Wan Yansu, his prince, and he can't take out the secrets of the Great Qi harem at this time and show it to others.
Wan Yansu was very interested, got up and said to Sima Xiu: "Ah Mei has been asleep at night and has not come out of the tent, it is estimated that it is because of my anger as a brother, I will persuade her." With that, he took the people with him.
Seeing this, everyone got up and left, Qin Yunuan took Qin Yuzhao out of the banquet, but she still couldn't let go of the situation inside.
Walking out of the secluded place, she made a gesture, this is the code of her agreement with Leng Wu, on weekdays, she doesn't want Leng Wu to appear so as not to attract too many people's attention, but now, she has something to tell Leng Wu.
Listening to her instructions, Leng Wu frowned.
"Miss Qinsan, the banquet is surrounded by the royal forbidden army, and the masters are like clouds, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hear the movements inside."
"I'm not asking you to eavesdrop," Qin Yunuan said lightly, "You just need to watch from a distance to make sure that your master and the fourth prince are okay, if there is anything unusual, tell me immediately." ”
Qin Yunuan's heart is not calm, Wanyan Su left, even the palace maids and eunuchs who served by the emperor's side also withdrew, and now only the emperor and queen and a few concubines and their henchmen are left in the banquet, but Leng Changxi, the foreign minister, is left, which can only show one problem, Leng Changxi is involved in this matter or knows the inside story, no matter which one it is, Leng Changxi's situation is complicated.
Leng Wu arched his hand, and went into the distance like a ghost, Qin Yunuan asked Man'er Tong'er to send Qin Yuzhao to rest in the tent, but she walked to the small mountainside on the other side of the shooting range, and in the afternoon, she was still talking to Leng Changxi there.
The surroundings were quiet, only the sparse moonlight fell from between the leaves and mottled spots, Qin Yunuan walked aimlessly, thinking of Princess Saichun's words in the afternoon, thinking of the Queen Mother who had been matching the county lord of Shuhua and Leng Changxi, and thinking of Leng Changxi's loud declaration, he inadvertently stepped on a pine branch, and a thick male voice with a Beidi accent sounded along with the sound of the branch breaking.
"Qin ...... Three girls? The questioning of the visitor was a little unconfident, as if he was testing Qin Yunuan's identity.
Qin Yunuan turned her head and saw that the person standing under the tree with a smile was none other than Wan Yan Su who had just left the table, this path was remote and few people knew, Wan Yan Su obviously followed her all the way, how did the Seven Princes of Beidi find her alone?
Qin Yunuan's eyes were a little vigilant, but he heard Wan Yan Su raise his voice and say, "Or should I say, Yang Erdong's family in Kingdee Embroidery Village?" ”
It turned out to be for business.
Qin Yunuan slowed down his tone and replied calmly: "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince of Beidi is very well-informed. ”
knew that she was the owner behind Kingdee Embroidery Village, and knew that Miss Yang's identity was fake, and she also accurately found out her true identity, all of which were all information obtained by the prince of Beidi, who had only been in Daqi for half a month.
Wan Yan Su smiled: "Miss Qin San can call me by my name directly. ”
"How dare you," Qin Yunuan always maintained a safe distance, Leng Wu was not by her side at this time, and she didn't know what the real purpose of Wanyan Su's trip was, "Wanyan Gongzi came to this place in the middle of the night, shouldn't it be to enjoy the moon?" ”
"Where is the moon as good-looking as Miss Qin San?" Wan Yan Su smiled calmly, with the directness of the grassland people, "It's not nonsense, it's just that I really admire Miss Qin's ability to do business, and she can suddenly develop a century-old shop that is about to fall into such a conspicuous way, I'm afraid that I'm not the only one who knows that this is all the credit of Miss Qin San." ”
"Shen Xun, the eldest son of the Shen family, has a natural business acumen, and I just make a little effort." Qin Yunuan didn't dare to take credit, and he didn't dare to expose too much, Shen Xun was indeed smart, but he was too casual, not only did he like to travel in the mountains and rivers, but he was not in the shop from time to time, and in terms of interacting with people, he always lacked a little bit of the shrewdness of a businessman, so now the embroidery village in Beijing and the embroidery village in the four state capitals around Kyoto are actually in the hands of Qin Yunuan, and now Qin Yunuan is divided into thousands of taels from the embroidery village every month, she is already a veritable little rich woman.
"No, no, no," Wan Yansu shook his head and said, "Miss Qin San doesn't have to be humble, after all, I'm here to talk about business with Miss Qin San, and I'm not here to steal business." ”
"Talking about business?" Qin Yunuan was a little puzzled, the trade between Beidi and Daqi had been strictly controlled by the government because of the perennial war, and even the trade route only retained the two routes of Yanguan and Luguan, and also needed complicated and cumbersome customs clearance documents.
Wan Yan Su seemed to know what Qin Yunuan was worried about, and he seemed to have been planning for a long time: "Maybe Qin San Girl doesn't know yet, the so-called world is all for profit, Beidi Duo spices and precious gems, but there is no silk cloth and aquatic products, and the price of silk in Daqi is low, and the price of jade is high, and the merchants are naturally trying their best to open up a few private roads outside the official roads, just in the vicinity of Luguan I know that there are thirteen private roads, if Qin San Girl is willing to cooperate with me, I can integrate these private roads and unite to form a guaranteed trade channel, And Qin San girl only needs to provide the cloth of Kingdee Embroidery Village, and I guarantee that within three years, Kingdee Embroidery Village can surpass Yuman Embroidery Village to become the first in Daqi. ”
"The conditions are very tempting," Qin Yunuan told the truth, "but why should I believe you Wanyan Gongzi?" There are not only private roads but also official roads near Luguan, if they are discovered by the people on the official roads or the generals of Luguan, we will lose more than just a little cloth. "At that time, the Kingdee Embroidery Village will be seized, not only Qin Yunuan's financial route will be cut off, but Shen Xun, who once helped her with the grace of Bole, will also be implicated.
"This third girl Qin can rest assured," Wan Yansu smiled, "On the second day of the first month of next month, a new general will be transferred to Luguan to take charge of all affairs in Luguan, and that general is under him." ”
It turned out to be waiting here, Qin Yunuan pursed the corners of her lips, she had heard that the battle for the succession of Beidi was also turbulent and extremely intense, and the Great Prince Party led by the eldest prince Wan Yan Zun is now gaining momentum, and suppressing other princes in every possible way, and transferring Wan Yan Su from the capital of Beidi to such a sensitive political zone as Luguan is undoubtedly to squeeze out Wan Yan Su, but Wan Yan Su can take advantage of this opportunity to actively find life, and take the opportunity to start a business with Daqi businessmen who have always had mustard.
Qin Yunuan glanced at Wan Yansu's flickering light blue eyes, this person is very ambitious and can forbear.
"After all, it's too risky," Qin Yunuan had already made plans in his heart, but verbally he still had to deal with Wanyan Su for a while, "And the conditions offered by Wanyan Gongzi are not so tempting, surpassing Yuman Xiuzhuang?" What is good about our Kingdee Embroidery Village surpassing Yuman Embroidery Village? After all, it's just an embroidery village. "What Qin Yunuan wants, but there are more things, besides, Yuman Embroidery Village is an industry under Leng Changxi's name, and it always feels like his own family is comparing, and it is not fun.
"Miss Qin San is really ambitious, I don't know what else Miss Qin San wants?" Wan Yan sighed, but his tone was full of approval, and only by working with ambitious people can there be greater development.
Qin Yunuan smiled slightly, and spat like an orchid: "Beidi's business, our Kingdee Embroidery Village will also be shared." ”
This ambition is really too big, Wan Yansu narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Yunuan, as if he was thinking carefully, and before he could speak, a gust of wind left a person in the air.
It's Leng Wu.
Leng Wu raised his head and glanced at Qin Yunuan, and then saw Wan Yansu who appeared for some reason, and felt a little surprised.
Qin Yunuan only glanced at Wan Yan Su, Wan Yan Su retreated a few zhang away with interest, the Beidi people have never paid attention to internal strength and internal strength, so Leng Wu knew that this distance was no longer heard by Wan Yan Su, so he opened his mouth and replied, "Duan Concubine Niangniang is under house arrest," Leng Wu said lightly, and then looked up at Wan Yan Su, who was standing far away from Qin Yunuan, "Also, the third prince was assassinated just now, and all the evidence points to the Beidi people." ”
