"Master." The guard shouted worriedly.

"It doesn't matter."

Zhao Wenluo was already very angry, but he was very calm on the surface, and there was no change in mood on his face. People who don't even know can't even notice the subtle movements of his hands.

The guard didn't speak, just silently accompanied Zhao Wenluo's side.

However, spies hiding in the shadows found out. Zhao Wenluo's subtle emotional changes, I admire from the bottom of my heart that she can endure it.

No wonder Zhao Wenlu will regard Zhao Wenluo as his strongest opponent.

The most terrible thing about a person is that he can hide his emotions anytime and anywhere, and all his joys, sorrows, and sorrows cannot be seen at all.

It's like a motionless turtle that doesn't know what it's thinking.

Nalan Jin and his wife rushed to have a meal with Zhao Wenlu, and he also arranged other programs, wanting to get more useful information from Nalan Jin's mouth.

"I'm really embarrassed, I'm afraid I'm going to live up to the good intentions of the third prince. Qi'er is alone in welfare, I don't worry, thank you for the hospitality of the three princes. There will be a chance to get together again in the future. Nalan Jin politely rejected Zhao Wenlu.

"Do you want to give face to this king?" Zhao Wenlu's face was slightly red, and he was a little angry.

"The third prince misunderstood, Qi'er is still young, it's going to be dark soon, he really can't do without Jin'er." Dongfang Yi helped explain the round game on the side.

Zhao Wenlu also wanted to force Nalan Jin and his wife to stay, but the housekeeper next to him quietly touched his elbow.

"Since this is the case, the king will not force him to stay, come here, and send them back." Zhao Wenlu's attitude immediately changed.

In order to convince Zhao Wenluo that Nalan Jin was indeed on the united front with him, Zhao Wenlu deliberately ordered people to send Nalan Jin and his wife back to the house with great fanfare.

For his little trick, of course Nalan Jin understands that Dongfang Yi wanted to let the people in Zhao Wenlu's mansion go back several times, but they were stopped by Nalan Jin.

I don't want him to be startled by the momentary atmosphere.

Zhao Wenlu was happy to see that the goal he had worked so hard for so long had finally been achieved, so he drank a few more glasses and was drunk and sent back to the Three Princes' Mansion.

With the meaning of drunkenness, I found a few concubines who had a room for a night of spring supper.

The spies came back and wanted to report the situation on Zhao Wenluo's side, but they were also blocked by the housekeeper.

It wasn't until three o'clock the next day that Zhao Wenlu got up, the maid was waiting to freshen up, and he could still smell the undissipated smell of wine on his body.

"It seems that Ye is in a good mood today." The butler complimented on the sidelines.

"That's natural, the things that this king is worried about have finally been rewarded, and this king has taken great pains in vain." Zhao Wenlu rinsed his mouth, "What's the situation over there?" ”

"I was very angry when I saw the news that Huang Zi was going to, but I don't know why I pretended to be very calm." The housekeeper wondered.

"Humph! Lao Qi has been like this since he was a child, I remember that when we were children in the palace, he was obviously bullied very badly, but when his father asked him, he didn't say anything, and continued to star. ”

Zhao Wenlu is full of confidence, and the whole person is full of energy, looking like he has been beaten with chicken blood.

"Yes."

The housekeeper seems to be only reporting good news to Zhao Wenlu, maybe this is the way to survive by the prince's side.

"He's quite able to endure it, and this king wants to see how long he can endure it." Zhao Wenlu glanced at it coldly, "Since this is the case, then the king will add some more ingredients to him, I want to see how long he can endure the energy when he was a child." ”

There was the first contact.

Zhao Wenlu spared no effort to continue to curry favor with Dongfang Yi, and sometimes even put pressure on him, of course, not by force, but in the business field, he stumbled Dongfang Yi and made it difficult for him to move an inch.

I hope that in this way, Dongfang Yi can cooperate with Zhao Wenlu as soon as possible, so that Zhao Wenlu can implement his plan.

With Dongfang Yi and Nalan Mansion as a backer, with Dongfang Yi's current status in front of the old emperor, Zhao Wenlu has a mobile treasury, so why worry about big things.

"Uncle Dongfang, the third prince is invited." The housekeeper sent an invitation to Dongfang Yi in a powerful way, but his words were full of threats.

"Trouble going back to the third prince, I really can't leave the workshop, and the kindness of the third prince is appreciated in my heart." Dongfang Yi glanced at the butler and rejected him.

"Didn't Uncle Dongfang see who it was, then I'll say one more thing, the third prince is invited!" The butler deliberately accentuated the threatening tone.

"I'm sorry, I have the good intentions of the rich third prince, I'm really busy here, the emperor told me to sort out these accounts as soon as possible, I don't think the third prince wants the emperor to ask."

Dongfang Yi did not shy away from the threat of the housekeeper at all, but used the emperor as a shield, and there was no way to face the emperor's housekeeper, so he had to leave angrily.

After going back, he told Zhao Wenlu about Dongfang Yi's attitude, and he smiled contemptuously.

When Dongfang Yi sorted out the account books, he inadvertently found a lot of drawbacks, resulting in some unfavorable bad debts for the treasury and even many businesses.

These ledgers made him a little angry, sighing, but he found a business opportunity, so he couldn't wait to go back and discuss with Nalan Jin.

"Jin'er, I have something to tell you." Dongfang Yi rushed into the house.

"I'll talk about it later, I'm helping Qi'er with her homework." Nalan Jin didn't raise his head.

"My affairs are very important, Qi'er's homework will be waiting." Dongfang Yi couldn't wait to snatch his homework from Nalan Jin's hands.

Nalan Jin felt a little curious, usually Dongfang Yi put Dongfang Qi's homework first, even if it was a matter of the workshop, he could temporarily put it off.

But now Dongfang Yi took away his homework himself, "Are you in such a hurry, is something going on?" Nalan Jin's expression was a little solemn.

"I want to do business reform." Dongfang Yi took a deep breath and looked at Nalan Jin.

Nalan Jin's serious face became serious, without any expression, and looked at Dongfang Yi blankly.

"Dongfang, are you alright? Why do the good ones need to carry out business reforms? Do you know what the consequences of business reform will be? Although you are an official in the court, you are just a small official, and you don't know how complicated it is in the court. ”

Nalan Jin vetoed Dongfang Yi's proposal, which seemed to him to be an unrealistic idea.

It's just a whimsical idea of a momentary hot-headedness and passion.

To really put it into practice, I am afraid that it will be difficult.

"Don't be in a hurry to refute, listen to me first." Dongfang Yi took the ledger to Nalan Jin, "These are the ones I found in the tent. If these places are reformed, I think it will not only benefit the people who do business, but also the income of the imperial court, and now is the time when the national treasury is empty, so it will benefit the country and the people. ”

Dongfang Yi patiently told Nalan Jin his thoughts and ideas, although there were many shortcomings, but he could slowly put them into action.

"Are you sure you can? These are just your personal ideas, and it will be difficult to implement. Nalan Jin's attitude slowly changed.

"I'm confident." Dongfang Yi said confidently.

"Okay, I'll support you no matter what you do." Nalan looked at what was holding Dongfang Yi's hand, and the only thing he could do at this time was to give her enough confidence.

On the second day, Dongfang Yi put forward his own business reform plan in the court, as well as some policies drafted by himself.

After listening to Dongfang Yi's explanation, the civil and military officials and the emperor all felt that it was feasible, but Zhao Wenlu instigated a few officials to obstruct it.

But the emperor still decided to let Dongfang Yi implement it.

Soon, Dongfang Yi's reform was confirmed, and many merchants and officials received good benefits while implementing policies, and the treasury began to be full.

Those small traders and merchants who are about to close are slowly starting to start.

They are all grateful for the business reform proposed by Dongfang Yi.

Originally, those officials who opposed Dongfang Yi's business reforms regretted it after seeing the feasible results. Even some of their own merchants who secretly manipulated themselves have benefited a lot after the implementation of the reform.

Originally, Zhao Wenlu was still constantly putting pressure on officials to suppress Dongfang Yi. But they all flinched, unwilling to embarrass Dongfang Yi.

"It's all something that eats inside and out, and even dares to disobey the king's orders, have they forgotten when they knelt down and begged the king?" Zhao Wenlu was angry and lost his temper at home.

"Uncle's anger." The butler persuaded by the side.

"Get out! Don't think that this king doesn't know what your idea is, and you can buy it with a little favor, and this king doesn't want such a person. Zhao Wenlu angrily drank back the housekeeper.

Dongfang Yi is a person who will not hold grudges, those officials consulted Dongfang Yi about reform, and he took the initiative to invite them to dinner, regardless of his previous suspicions.

Zhao Wenluo secretly observed the relationship between Zhao Wenlu and Dongfang Yi, and a reform was completely exposed.

It's not like what the people in the house said before, they drank and talked together, but the open and secret battles below intensified.

So, Zhao Wenluo guessed that everything he heard before might be a bureau.

"Recently, in the court, I found that there seems to be a competition between the three princes and the East." Zhao Wenluo received.

"But didn't you say they were still eating together?" The guards wondered.

"This is also the crux of the matter, if it is really like what happened in the court, then the news we got before is the fake news that the third prince deliberately passed on to us. So I have to look it up. ”

Zhao Wenluo thought about it, and felt that it was safest to ask Nalan Jin about this matter, but he was afraid that some people with a heart would catch it and use it.

Cause unnecessary misunderstandings between them.

"You personally deliver this letter to Jin'er, it must be her, not others." Zhao Wenlu emphasized again and again.

"Yes, master."

The guard took the letter, did not alarm anyone, and went to Nalan Mansion quietly in person.
