The Queen Mother's illness has improved, naturally it is a happy event celebrated by the whole world, Emperor Qiming is also happy, and the first day of the new year will be even more smiling, and there are ministers on the excerpt that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and the emperor is invited to go to Dongshan to worship the ancestors, one to pray for good weather and peace, the country and the people, and the other to pray for the Queen Mother. Emperor Qiming thought so, and immediately set the itinerary, and ordered the capital to be noble, all the mansions of officials above the fifth grade must be lit with ever-bright lanterns, for seven days and seven nights, to pray for the Queen Mother's illness!

Qingxiang Marquis Mansion is a hereditary first-class prince's mansion, naturally in the emperor's order to light the lamp and pray for the official mansion, in order to show solemnity, the Hou Ye Du Ziqian let people light the lantern above the main hall of the Mingfeng Building, and the Wei family left a special person to wait and take care of it in the Mingfeng Building.

Although she had heard about these matters, she didn't care about them, and she, like the Li family, was worried about Xiao Du Yu's birthday gift. Now although the Queen Mother's condition has stabilized and improved, after all, it has not yet recovered, and no one dares to blatantly handle the red and white affairs in the entire capital, and the emperor has set the Dragon Boat Festival to worship the ancestors in Dongshan, so it seems that Xiao Du Yu's birthday gift may only be a bowl of longevity noodles.

In the evening, the porter came in to report that he had to ask for a meeting with the king's shopkeeper of the silk village.

This is just the beginning of the month, and last month's inventory should not be done so quickly, and last month was the fifth day of the new year, the shopkeeper Wang sent the lady to the door, and sent the account book and silver money to Yi'er, and now it is the first day of the new year, but the shopkeeper Wang ran this trip in person, thinking that there should be something else, so he asked Yinlian to bring people in.

Entering the Qiuxia Pavilion and entering the house, the shopkeeper Wang respectfully saluted Yi'er, and after Yi'er gave the seat, the shopkeeper Wang said directly: "Do you remember that the son who was with the owner last time mentioned the transportation cost of our shop?" ”

Yi'er nodded and said, "I remember, could it be that Uncle Wang already has a complete plan so soon?" ”

Shopkeeper Wang shook his head, but there was joy on his face, and said: "Don't hide it from the owner, Master Huo from the salt road transfer yamen came to the shop in person today, saying that he is willing to cooperate with us, and the salt ship of the transfer yamen is responsible for transporting our goods." ”

Yi'er was also stunned, and blurted out: "Master Huo? ”

"It is Huo Jingzhi, the Jiangnan salt road transfer envoy, the guerrilla general who was personally appointed by the emperor, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and Lord Huo who is fully responsible for everything in the salt road transfer yamen."

Yi'er frowned and was silent, and when the shopkeeper Wang saw her expression, he couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this Lord Huo invited by the owner?" ”

Yi'er said honestly: "I've heard of the Yandao Transfer Yamen, but this transfer envoy Lord Huo, this is the first time I've heard of it, where can I have the face to invite people over?" ”

The shopkeeper Wang also looked suspicious, opened his mouth wide, and muttered: "That, that...... So what's going on with this? ”

Yi'er remembered Jiang You, this idea was proposed by Jiang You, could it be that Jiang You also found this person? The salt road transfer envoy is not like an ordinary official, although the grade is only four grades, but it is directly under the emperor's orders, as the king shopkeeper said that he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, where can ordinary people invite such a great god? Yi'er couldn't help but wonder, what kind of identity is this Jiang You, who can have so much energy?

Immediately, he said: "Did this Lord Huo say anything else besides talking about cooperation?" ”

The shopkeeper Wang patted his head and said, "Look at my memory, the little one who entered the mansion this time was originally here for this, and I forgot to say it." Lord Nahuo said that this cooperation is a long-term thing, and if it is convenient for the owner, he wants to meet the owner himself. The small one thinks, after all, this is a big thing for our shop, and the owner personally comes forward to negotiate, but it is also reasonable, but after all, the owner is the young lady who has not come out of the cabinet, and there are many inconveniences in acting, so the small one does not dare to call the shots, and the special house is to inquire about the meaning of the owner. ”

Yi'er thought for a while and said, "Did he say when he wanted to see me?" ”

"Tomorrow! Master Huo said that after tomorrow, he will go to Jiangnan to inspect it, and it is estimated that it will take some time, if the owner is willing, he will wait for the owner in the Tianzi private room on the Desheng Building on Tilanjie at noon tomorrow. ”

Yi'er was stunned for a moment, Deshenglou was one of the three shops given by the old lady, and Jiang You and Jiang You had a meal there last time, this Huo Jingzhi also chose the location there, naturally it would not be a coincidence, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Uncle Lao went back to him, and I will go over on time tomorrow." ”

This thing is full of weirdness, but Yi'er is sure in her heart that it must be Jiang You who is the matchmaker in the back, but what does this person want to do, she is a little confused?

It didn't take long for the Li family to know about the matter of the shopkeeper Wang's passing over the house, so when Yi'er went back and forth to say that he was going out tomorrow, Li was worried about whether the shop outside Yi'er had encountered any difficulties, and wanted to find a shopkeeper from his dowry shop to come over and let Yi'er use it first, Yi'er refused with a smile, only saying that there was a big order of business in the shop, but people wanted to see her, the owner behind the scenes, and they didn't encounter any difficulties.

Yi'er avoided Chunyun from beginning to end, so on the second day, Yi'er led Blue Buckwheat Lufu out, Chunyun was still confused, and she didn't know what Yi'er was going out about.

Yi'er didn't want to make a noise, so everything was simple, except for Lan Buckwheat and Lufu, and the coachman Hu San, she only followed four guards. Because the shopkeeper of Desheng Building had seen Yi'er in the Hou Mansion last month, after entering the building, although Yi'er wore a hat, the shopkeeper Zheng still recognized the blue buckwheat green fu at a glance, and was surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and after learning of Yi'er's intention, he personally introduced people into the Tianzi private room.

Yi'er remembered that the last time she had dinner with Jiang You was also in this private room, and she was stunned for a moment, that Zheng shopkeeper was a human spirit, so she naturally knew what to ask and what not to ask, so she only sent Yi'er to the door of the private room, gently pushed the door, and after Yi'er led the maid in, she gently covered the door again, and lowered her head during the whole process, and didn't glance at the house at all.

As soon as Yi'er entered the room, she saw a person sitting on the chair in front of the table, with a green shirt and elegant robe, and a jade tree in the wind.

Yi'er was stunned for a moment and said, "Why are you the son?" ”

Jiang You picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said, "What's strange?" ”

"Where's Lord Huo?"

Jiang You said lightly: "Jingzhi still has important matters, so I specially invited the master to come over and talk to you in detail, what's the matter?" Could it be that you can't be the master? ”

After the incident last time, Lan Qiao had an extra layer of caution against Jiang You, and at this time, he saw that Jiang You was the only one in the private room, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he whispered: "Miss, since Master Huo is not here, why don't we go back first, and ...... another day."

Before Lan Qiao's words were finished, she suddenly felt that a gaze was like a poisonous snake's tongue nailed coldly to her body, and she couldn't help but tremble, where could she continue?

Jiang You said coldly: "The master hasn't opened his mouth yet, where is your cheap servant to speak?" ”

For some reason, Lan Qiao felt that every word Jiang You said hit her heart like an ice arrow, making her instantly cold from head to foot as if she was in an ice cellar, and the fear in her heart made her stunned and at a loss.

Yi'er saw that Lan Qiao was frightened, so she stretched out her hand, shook Lan Qiao's hand, patted it gently, was annoyed, looked at Jiang You and said, "The identity of the son is noble, why bother to scare the girl next to the little girl?" The little girl is here for Lord Huo, since Lord Huo is not there, naturally there is no reason to stay for a long time, so the son is pleased. ”

At the end of the words, he turned around directly and led the blue buckwheat green fu to the door.

Jiang You was stunned, he didn't expect Yi'er's temperament to be so big, so he hurriedly got up and said, "Slow, don't be annoyed, the things in your shop are also serious, and it's okay to sit down and talk." That's it, Master a lot, these two girls you brought, it's not difficult for you to scare them. ”

Yi'er knew that this person had a noble status and a rebellious temperament, so she didn't expect to be able to spit out soft words from his mouth, although this is not a real soft word, but it is really awkward and rare to put it on his body, so he thought about it, turned around and sat down opposite him, and said, "What does the son want to talk about?" ”
