Li Junze's face was also ugly, he stiffened his face, and at this time he exuded a cold feeling, like frost in early winter.

Zhao Siyan looked at Li Junze's fingers, just now he knocked over her teacup in a hurry, and accidentally got a little tea, the tea can even erode the ground, not to mention his flesh and bones?

"Your finger hurts!" Zhao Siyan shouted.

As she spoke, she quickly picked up the water on the table, grabbed his fingers and poured it on it, but even so, his hands were eroded by the poison.

Li Junze felt that his fingers were numb, a feeling he had never experienced, but he knew that it had nothing to do with poison.

Li Junze let Zhao Siyan hold his fingers, and his eyes were even a little wandering until he heard her voice.

Zhao Siyan quickly calmed down, "Green Lotus, go and ask a doctor to come over!" ”

Lu He's face turned pale with fright from the changes in front of him, and when he heard Zhao Siyan's words, he nodded in a panic and was about to go out.

Jiang Yi was a little speechless, but after Li Junze glanced at him lightly, he took a step back.

"It's out of the way." Li Junze said slowly, his expression as calm as ever, "It's not much, it's fine." ”

Jiang Yi on the side suddenly said in a ghostly manner: "Yes, at most, a finger is gone, but it's worth it because the hero saves the beauty." ”

Zhao Siyan was taken aback, if it was really serious enough that her fingers couldn't be saved, then she was guilty of a lot.

Li Junze glanced at Jiang Yi warningly, and then gently comforted Zhao Siyan: "I'm fine, I really don't get it much, it's just a little painful." ”

Zhao Siyan looked guilty, "Let's ask a doctor to take a look, otherwise I won't be at ease." ”

I don't know which sentence pleases the prince, his eyes softened a little, and he looked at her deeply, with a smile on his eyebrows.

Lu He looked at his young lady who was still holding Li Junze's hand, and coughed heavily, Zhao Siyan came back to his senses and hurriedly let go of his hand.

Strangely, when she let go of his hand, the crispy numbness, which seemed to be soft until the heart of the feeling, disappeared all at once, leaving only a faint sense of loss.

Li Junze suddenly felt that he seemed to have reassured her too soon.

"Don't ask for a doctor, at this juncture, if things get bigger, it will be more troublesome." Li Junze said softly, "I'm not in the way, I'll take medicine when I go back, you can rest assured." ”

Zhao Siyan saw that Li Junze said firmly, his heart gradually settled down, Li Junze seems to have such an ability, which can make people easily have a sense of trust, although it is not trust, but it will not be bad what he said, he said that if he can solve it, he will definitely be able to solve it, and anything given to him can be reassured.

But Zhao Siyan did not relax her vigilance because Li Junze did not pursue it, her face sank: "Lord Shizi, this incident happened in my store, I will definitely give an explanation to Lord Shizi!" ”

Zhao Siyan also felt that she was careless, it was not the shopkeeper Cheng who came to deliver the tea just now, and she felt that something was wrong, but she didn't expect that someone would dare to poison the tea! Today, thanks to Li Junze's caution, otherwise something happened to Li Junze, where would she be able to afford it? Not to mention, it was Li Junze who saved her just now.

Li Junze smiled lightly: "It's not necessary to explain, I'm afraid that I have caused Miss Zhao to be burdened this time, and I can't find out anything." ”

The two knew that no one would poison a boudoir daughter, which was obviously aimed at Zhao Siyan.

As for the person who poisoned him, since he could do it so blatantly, he had obviously already thought of a way out, and even if he investigated, he couldn't find out who was really behind the scenes.

However, Zhao Siyan understood that Li Junze's situation was even more difficult than she imagined, not only on the surface, but also in secret, and I don't know what he did, so hateful.

Looking at his fingers on the spot, even if he was detoxified, he was afraid that it would leave a scar, and she sighed slightly in her heart.

When something like this happened, the two of them couldn't talk about it anymore, and Li Junze's hand still needed to be treated.

Zhao Siyan promised: "Thank you for today's events, I will keep it in my heart," after a pause, she said: "I will definitely do my best for what I promised!" ”

Li Junze looked at her calm and serious face and nodded lightly.

Li Junze left the teahouse in a hurry, and as soon as he went out, Jiang Yi took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Li Junze.

"Obviously, I have antidote pills on my body, and I wasn't allowed to take them out just now, so I have to look at Miss Zhao worried, Lord Shizi, you are really getting more and more insidious!" Jiang Yi complained.

Li Junze took the antidote pill, he had encountered poisoning a few times before, he had always been cautious, so he carried the antidote pill with him, although it may not be able to cure all kinds of poisons, but it also has a certain suppressive effect.

The tips of Li Junze's ears were slightly red, in fact, he didn't know why he stopped Jiang Yi just now, he just did it instinctively, and even if he was teased by Jiang Yi now, he didn't regret it.

Li Junze was a little dazed, for the first time, he couldn't figure out his true purpose, he lowered his gaze, covering the real emotions in his eyes, although he still didn't know, but he believed that he would definitely figure it out.

"Let's go back first." Li Junze said lightly.

Jiang Yi's eyes widened again, this, is this evasion?

After Li Junze left, Zhao Siyan naturally ordered the shopkeeper Cheng to investigate the poisoning, but as they had guessed before, the poisoned guy had already disappeared without a trace.

"It's all a small carelessness, and it almost caused a big disaster." Shopkeeper Cheng said with a guilty face.

Zhao Siyan was also a little angry in her heart, but she was more concerned about another thing: "Is this person new?" ”

"No, it's been three months since I've been here, he's diligent and smart, and he's honest and willing to work, who knows how ...... he is"

Zhao Siyan's eyes flashed, three months, that was before she was just sent to Zhuangzi, and she was Li Junze who she met on the way to Zhuangzi, could it be that someone started the layout so long ago and already knew that Li Junze would come to Dengzhou?

But why do you put people in the teahouse? Zhao Siyan couldn't figure it out, this teahouse was her mother's dowry, and it had nothing to do with Li Junze, how could anyone want to arrange people here?

Zhao Siyan wrinkled her brows tightly, and the thoughts in her heart were one after another.

This matter is still over, Zhao Siyan ordered the shopkeeper Cheng to re-sort out the running hall of the teahouse, and also reminded several other shops, several shops are also in danger, and finally made trouble in front of the Liu family, but this is a later story.

Zhao Siyan went back quickly, and the next day she received a letter from the porter, which did not write anything, but there were a few forget-you-worry grasses.

Zhao Siyan understood that it was Li Junze who came to report safety, and it seemed that his hand was no longer in the way, so she was relieved.

No matter what, Li Junze saved her life, but she couldn't give him an explanation, which made Zhao Siyan feel very unhappy, she really wanted to do something to make up for Li Junze, so she put all her energy on how to help Li Junze find out the people in the army who colluded with the court.

In fact, Zhao Siyan already knew who that person was, it must be the He family, but the problem was that Li Junze didn't know, and she couldn't run to identify He Qingshan for no reason, but she already had a plan, how to let the He family show her feet.

In addition to this incident, Zhao Siyan also went to the Liu family and asked the Liu family to write to her maternal grandfather's house to ask if there was any ointment to remove scars, her grandfather was a military general and was often injured, so he knew many famous doctors.

The Liu family quickly sent someone over to reply, but the generals were seriously injured, as long as they could save a life, it would be good, and it was not a big deal to leave a few scars, so there was really no ointment in this regard, but Zhao Siyan's grandmother promised that people would pay attention to it, and as long as they found it, they would send it to her.

Zhao Siyan felt a little regretful in her heart, she just thought that it would be a pity if Li Junze's beautiful hand left a scar.

But this matter is not important after all, it is the matter of the He family that is the most important.

Zhao Siyan went to Zhao Tingshan to discuss.

Zhao Tingshan was also worried about this matter, "You are here, I thought you forgot about your father, did you come up with a way?" You don't know, I saw that the prince had taken a detour in the past two days, so I was worried that he would ask me when I would be able to rob the Sun family! ”

Zhao Siyan nodded: "I know Dad," after thinking about it, she said: "It's almost time, Dad, early tomorrow morning, you will take a team of people and horses to surround the Sun family's grain shop." ”

Zhao Tingshan was startled, touched his chin, and asked hesitantly, "It's really a robbery?" ”

"I didn't let you rob it, I just asked you to surround it first, bring more people, and if you are a little fiercer, you have to check it if you enter the door to buy something." Zhao Siyan didn't change his face and came up with a bad idea.

The army has always been arrogant, a routine inspection can explain the past, if anyone resists, it is suspicious, after all, Dengzhou City is very special, no one can joke with the people throughout the whole process.

Zhao Tingshan asked with a tangled expression: "What is the difference between you doing this and letting me rob the Sun family?" Won't I still be discredited then? ”

"Of course it's different, if you don't rob it, it's equivalent to not getting food, and your reputation will be ruined, how can it be the same?" Zhao Siyan asked rhetorically.

Zhao Tingshan felt that he needed to remind her that he was his own father, but looking at his daughter like this, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a father in the pit.

Zhao Siyan saw his concerns, smiled slightly and said, "Dad, don't worry, can I still harm you?" As I said, I don't want my mother to remarry! ”

Zhao Tingshan: "......"

Zhao Siyan swore a promise to let him do what she said, Zhao Tingshan thought about it, or agreed, nothing else, he just believed what her daughter said, and didn't want the Liu family to remarry, because of this, Zhao Siyan shouldn't let him die.

So the next day, Zhao Tingshan led a team of soldiers and surrounded the Sun family's rice shop in anger.

The Sun family started by buying and selling grain, and they are one of the best rice merchants in Dengzhou City, and even in the entire banner.

You know, Dengzhou is not the land of fish and rice, but also perennial war, in this case, Sun Fugui can make the rice grain business to such a scale, this person's means can be seen from this, these days because of rumors of lack of military food, the price of rice in the city has risen by two percent, I heard that the Sun family took the lead in rising.

It can be said that the Sun family decided on the Mi family in Dengzhou City, and whether it rises or falls depends on the words of the Sun family.

Moreover, the Sun family is very good at being a person, and there has always been a lot of filial piety to the court and the government, so it has been able to make the business bigger and bigger for so many years.

When Zhao Tingshan led the troops to surround the Sun family's rice shop, the shopkeeper of the Sun family's rice shop hurriedly greeted him, although he smiled, but he was not very nervous.

"Ouch, military master, what kind of wind blew you here, our grandson's rice shop has always been a child, the former county commander also praised us, saying that we are the tax pioneers in Dengzhou, actively paying taxes, and performing well, which one of these is not eye-opening offended the military master, the military master said bluntly, the small one must make amends to the military master!"

Zhao Tingshan didn't say anything, he glanced at his little servant Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu said coldly: "The city guards do things, when do they need to explain to you, routine inspection, please cooperate!" ”

"Master Jun, if you have something to say, say it well, we will definitely cooperate, but if you want us to cooperate, please also ask Master Jun for some advice, so that the little one can have a number in his heart." As he spoke, the shopkeeper took out a silver ingot and carefully handed it to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu did not hesitate to stretch out his hand to block it, looking like he didn't eat oil and salt, and he looked like he was doing business.

The shopkeeper said a lot of good things, but Zhao Tingshan didn't give face, and the shopkeeper was also a little annoyed, their Sun family is not a person who is afraid of things, these defenders do this, they can't help but take the Sun family too seriously!

The shopkeeper didn't say anything more, turned around and entered the store, fortunately, although the defenders surrounded the store, they did not enter the store, but several times, the guests saw so many fierce soldiers standing outside, they still did not dare to enter, for a long time, not even a guest.

The shopkeeper was helpless, so he had to close the store in a hurry.

As soon as the store was closed, Zhao Tingshan also left, and when the shopkeeper saw this, he hurriedly went back and reported it to Sun Fugui.

The Sun family soon sent someone to find Zhao Tingshan, but they didn't even see Zhao Tingshan's face, and Sun Fugui's wife even went to Zhao's mansion.

But I didn't even see the face of Mrs. Zhao, only the eldest lady received her, the Zhao family is a scholarly family, has always been noble and noble, in addition to the generals, for businessmen are also looked down upon, in the eyes of Mrs. Zhao, no matter how rich the Sun family is, even if it is rich enough to rival the country, it is also a lowly businessman, and it is not enough to worry about it at all.

Zhao Siyan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Lu He's report, and he didn't know if this was a benefit to the Zhao family.

Mrs. Sun didn't see Mrs. Zhao, she only saw Mrs. Zhao, but Mrs. Sun naturally couldn't intervene in Zhao Tingshan's affairs, Mrs. Sun wanted to see Liu's, and Mrs. Sun naturally couldn't let her see Liu's, Mrs. Sun was frustrated one after another, so she had to return in vain.

Then the next day, Zhao Tingshan went again early in the morning, this time the Sun family sent the eldest young master of the Sun family to see Zhao Tingshan in person, but Zhao Tingshan was still as immobile as a mountain, and no one gave face, so he still stayed outside the store.

The name of the Sun family is Sun Jingze, and he is the next successor of the Sun family, and he can be regarded as calm and capable, but this time he returned in vain, so he had to go back to see Sun Fugui.

Sun Fugui is in his forties this year, as his name suggests, he was born with a rich appearance, with a huge belly, a smile on his face, he also believes in Buddhism, and habitually holds a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, more like a compassionate Maitreya Buddha, but his eyes flash from time to time, but it destroys this Zen on his body.

"What does this Zhao Tingshan mean? I don't eat soft and hard, I have said all the good things, and I haven't let go, so I can't help but take our Sun family in my eyes! Sun Jingze said angrily.

In contrast, Sun Fugui looked calm, without the slightest anger on his face, he glanced at Sun Jingze: "How much face do you think the Sun family has?" Zhao Tingshan was born in a scholarly family, his own repeated military exploits are not counted, his father-in-law is the boss of the army, that is, the Taishou Lord has to give him some face, why should Zhao Tingshan give the Sun family a merchant's face? ”

Sun Jingze choked, but his expression was still indignant, the Sun family is rich, but the banner attaches importance to Confucianism, Shinong industry and commerce, and merchants are ranked last, this status is on par with military generals, and even inferior to military generals, after all, military generals can still protect their families and defend the country, what can merchants do?

Sun Fugui looked at him with an indignant look, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly, although this son can be regarded as capable, but in the end, he is a little less hot, and when he encounters a big event, he is still a little uncontrollable.

"But although our Sun family is a merchant, not everyone can move it!" Sun Fugui said lightly.

At this time, he has faded away from a compassionate aura, even if he is holding a Buddhist bead in his hand, he still reveals a bit of coldness.

But Sun Jingze's expression looked much better.

"Dad, why did you say Zhao Tingshan did this? Why should we be directed against him if we have no grievances against him? ”

"When he did this, naturally someone was supporting him, otherwise he wouldn't have the courage to come and touch my Sun family." Sun Fugui said lightly.

Sun Jingze looked puzzled.

Sun Fugui turned the Buddha beads, glanced at him and said: "I told you a long time ago, let you always pay attention to the affairs of the imperial court, you just don't listen, the first person you saw when the prince arrived in Dengzhou was Zhao Tingshan, and later lived in Zhao Tingshan's Zhuangzi, who do you say is supporting him?" ”

These are not secrets, they are known to everyone in the army.

"You mean the prince? But the prince of the world is ...... us," Sun Jingze said halfway, and then reacted: "Is it because of the rumors a few days ago that there is no food in the army!" ”

A look of relief flashed in Sun Fugui's eyes, and he nodded.

"But Dad, we know that the rumors are true, and a few days ago, another batch of grain and grass was brought from the south, didn't Dad say that he planned to take this opportunity to ask for a reward from the imperial court?" Sun Jingze asked, "What is it like now?" Do you want to go to Uncle He to come over and discuss? ”

The Sun family is rich, but it also has the biggest weakness, that is, the Sun family is a merchant and has no status, no matter how rich they are, they can only be slaughtered by others.

So some time ago, He Qingshan hinted to Sun Fugui, saying that when there was a shortage of food in the army, he moved a thought, if in the case of a lack of military food, he took the lead in donating a large amount of grain and grass to the defenders, which can also be called a benevolent and righteous act, he didn't want anything else, just begging the court to give a reward, and the Sun family would no longer be just an ordinary merchant in the future.

Now everything is ready, just wait for a few days, when the army is really exhausted, he will come out to donate food again, who knows that Zhao Tingshan suddenly came out like this.

Passive giving is not the same as active giving.

Now for Sun Fugui, only changing the Sun family's court is the most important thing, other businesses and money are not important, there is no status, and the Sun family can't keep more money.

Sun Fugui's brows furrowed tightly, and he ordered, "Send someone to invite your Uncle He." ”

When Zhao Tingshan sent troops to surround Sun's rice shop, He Qingshan received the news, and he was also very anxious, but after thinking about it for a while, he gave up the idea of breaking the siege.

The Sun family sent someone to invite, and he passed over very happily.

Sun Fugui was very polite to He Qingshan, received him personally, and the two went back to the study to talk about the matter after dinner.

"The timing is not right, and we are afraid that our previous plan will have to be changed." Sun Fugui said.

He Qingshan nodded, and a gleam flashed in his waveless eyes: "I have a plan......

The two got together and spoke softly, and the more He Qingshan said, Sun Fugui's eyes gradually lit up.

After standing outside Sun's rice shop for another day, Zhao Tingshan returned home, he was a little out of breath and went to see Zhao Siyan.

The father and daughter looked at each other and were about to step aside to speak, when Liu saw it, he couldn't help but be annoyed: "Now that your father and daughter have a secret, they refuse to tell me." ”

Zhao Tingshan immediately threw his daughter aside: "What's the matter, I hid anything from you, it's all your daughter, and your daughter won't let me say it." ”

In front of Zhao Siyan, Zhao Tingshan sold her without hesitation.

The so-called dead friends do not die in the poor way, Zhao Tingshan sees it very openly.

Zhao Siyan couldn't believe that her father was so unreliable! She knew that her father was afraid of her mother, and she refused to admit it!

However, she is one thing better than Zhao Tingshan, that is, compared to Zhao Tingshan, the Liu family obviously loves her more, as long as she is coquettish to the Liu family and says a few good words, the Liu family will be soft-hearted, and she doesn't have to worry about her mother letting her go to sleep in the study.

So Zhao Siyan quickly coaxed the Liu family, and Zhao Tingshan looked at his daughter like a thief.

"Okay, okay, don't be coquettish with me, forget it, you father and daughter talk, I'll go see Wen Xi." Liu smiled and patted his daughter's hand, but he was very useful in his heart.

Zhao Tingshan glared at Zhao Siyan, and Zhao Siyan's face was calm.

"How long am I going to go? Do you know that there are already rumors today, saying that the prince of the world started to fight the Sun family because of the lack of military rations. ”

Zhao Siyan raised her eyebrows: "Oh? After a pause, she suddenly smiled: "It seems that some people can't hold their breath anymore." ”
