"Mrs. Yan." The guard shouted respectfully, but did not salute.

"Well, is the prince in there?" Yan Ruyu was gentle and gentle, and didn't mind that they were guards.

"Mrs. Hui, here!"

Yan Ruyu knocked on the door of the study gently, "Your Highness, it's Yu'er." ”

"Come in." Xia Qingtian rubbed his eyebrow bones again, continued to review the folds, handled what he could handle, and did not dare to draw conclusions easily and put it in another place, and discussed it with Emperor Xia tomorrow.

Yan Ruyu asked the maid to stay outside the door, walked into the study with a golden cup, and walked to the desk, her voice was delicate and delicate, which did not make people feel that she was delicate, but gave people a feeling of knowledge, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Get up, I've said it, you don't have to be so polite when no one is around." Xia Qingtian didn't raise his head and continued the work in hand.

Yan Ruyu walked around the corner of the table and walked to Xia Qingtian's side, "I stewed medicinal soup for Your Highness, and Your Highness will drink it while it's hot." ”

"Let's put it first." Xia Qingtian still didn't look at Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu just opened the cup with a smile, took a spoon and scooped it up, and fed it to Xia Qingtian's mouth, "Your Highness is busy, Yu'er can't help much, so she can only do these trivial things." ”

Xia Qingtian seemed to have gotten used to Yan Ruyu's feeding, opened his mouth, and drank it, his eyes not half a step away.

Yan Ruyu fed, from time to time, seemingly unintentionally, glanced at the fold, but did not speak, as if she had not seen anything.

After drinking a cup of medicinal soup, Yan Ruyu opened the door of the study, handed the cup to the maid, came in again and put her hand on Xia Qingtian's shoulder, and kneaded it gently.

While pinching, I glanced at the fold from time to time.

Xia Qingtian's eyebrows slowly relaxed, and he finally raised his head and returned a warm smile to Yan Ruyu.

waited until he finally finished reading all the twists and turns, then slowly got up, hugged Yan Ruyu, and left the study.

The next day, Yan Ruyu sent the maids around her to leave the prince's mansion......

……

In the private room on the second floor of Jiu'an Restaurant.

Mu Jiu took the tea set, sat cross-legged on the wooden collapse, and made tea himself.

Outside the window is the picturesque scenery of the capital, the environment inside the house is elegant, and the faint fragrance of tea is a little bit in the air.

Sun Zeyun looked at Mu Jiu's movements, he had seen many tea girls making tea, elegant and quiet, but it was the first time he saw people making tea as particular as Mu Jiu, whether it was the amount of water or tea, each one was carefully calculated, a little more, a little less.

"Second son Sun, please!" Mu Jiu handed Sun Zeyun a cup of tea.

The latter took it, put it to his lips and blew lightly, taking a small sip.

It was so bitter that his tongue lost sensation, and then, slowly, a little sweetness exploded in his throat, instantly diffusing to the entire mouth, and finally the whole mouth was a sweet taste, impacting his senses and making him feel refreshed.

"Good tea!" Sun Zeyun blurted out.

This time, Rose guarded the spice shop and did not follow.

Mu Jiu brought Xiaomi and Zero Three, as well as Yu Gui, and Sun Zeyun brought his personal servant.

Mu Jiu handed Yu Gui another cup of tea, indifferently pinched a small cup of secret scorpion, and slowly tasted it.

I don't know how long it took, Sun Zeyun finished a cup of tea and handed the teacup back to Mu Jiu.

Mu Jiu poured him another cup before he spoke, "Has Second Prince Sun thought about it?" ”

The rice grain business has been cooperating, and Sun Zeyun knows that Mu Jiu is talking about the medicine business, "I don't know what kind of price Boss Mu can give?" ”

"Then it depends on how Sun Ergongzi is willing to cooperate."

"Oh?" Sun Zeyun became interested, "How many other plans does Boss Mu have?" ”

"First, I simply sell the medicine to you, because of the transportation problem, the price must be a bit high, second, we cooperate in the capital to open a pharmaceutical factory, in the name of my Jiu'an, your second son's territory, the transportation is definitely cheaper than shipping from the south, and the price is much lower."

Sun Zeyun's pupils shrank, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of Mu Jiu's plan.

Mu Jiu was not in a hurry, quietly tasting tea, full of patience.

It has been nearly two months since the last proposal, and even if Sun Zeyun goes to the south to investigate, it is not surprising that there will be enough time to come and go.

Sun Zeyun seemed to be interested in testing Mu Jiu's patience, and tasted two cups of tea, but still had no intention of speaking.

Seeing that Yu Gui couldn't sit still, she whispered something to Mu Jiu and left the private room.

Mu Jiu just lit the fire, made tea, and tasted tea, looking like he had forgotten to talk about business with Sun Zeyun, and looked calm and relaxed.

is calm, also because she has this self-confidence, and cooperating with her is Sun Zeyun's best choice.

Sure enough, after drinking the fourth cup of tea, Sun Zeyun was the first to speak, "Why is Boss Mu so sure that I will cooperate with you?" ”

"Because you are the son of General Sun."

In a word, Sun Zeyun could no longer hide the appreciation in his eyes, "You are very smart." ”

Mu Jiu put down the teacup, "It's not about being smart, it's about being a child." ”

I know that I can't do everything I can to protect my family.

General Sun's wife died early, and there was no renewal, except for marching and fighting, he gave all his love to his three children, and the three children naturally loved and respected him very much, knowing that it was not easy for him on the battlefield, and he could not go to the battlefield together to kill the enemy, at least he had to be given protection in the rear.

Sun Zeyun looked curious, "Oh? ”

"It's hard to say in words, let's not talk about the bad things in our family, Second Prince Sun, this is the plan."

Mu Jiu took out a cooperation plan from his small pocket and handed it to Sun Zeyun, "I know that the second son owns a lot of land and manors in the suburbs of Beijing, and no one dares to make trouble on your territory." ”

Sun Zeyun was even more surprised, he didn't expect Mu Jiu to even prepare the contract book, so he took it and scanned it roughly.

Mu Jiu's meaning: Sun Zeyun gave up the land and labor, Mu Jiu gave out the technology, and then each person gave 50,000 taels of silver for the construction of the pharmaceutical factory and the early investment, and the profits from the sale of the medicine were divided in half, and the knife wound medicine and the medicine for bruises and bruises were 20 percent lower than the market price and were provided to the northern garrison in unlimited quantities.

One is twenty percent below the market price and unlimited, which surprised Sun Zeyun's always calm face, "Why?" ”

Mu Jiu knew what he wanted to ask, "Because now that the imperial court is chaotic, we can't take care of the frontier at all, and the Northern Di Kingdom and the Southern Luo Kingdom are in cahoots and constantly invade our Great Xia Kingdom, if we only care about making money, it is very likely that the north and the south will be lost, and the country will not be a country, and when the time comes, the people will be displaced, and whose money will we make?" ”

Sun Zeyun: "......"

Originally, after listening to the previous paragraph, I thought that Mu Jiu had a high level of patriotism, but when I heard the back...... It's really no business!

However, even if it was for himself in the end, it was very rare for Mu Jiu to do this, at least he knew a lot of bosses who were in the medicinal herb business, so he couldn't sell them at a low price!

"Why didn't Boss Mu do it himself?" This is Sun Zeyun's only puzzle.

"The second son is also in business, and he should know how many dignitaries and nobles there are in the capital. It's not easy for me to stand on my feet as an outsider, if I don't find a backer for myself, can a pharmaceutical factory be opened? ”

"When will it start production?" Sun Zeyun understood, signed his name without hesitation, and took the Indonesian painting to charge.

After talking about the details again, Sun Zeyun left Jiu'an Restaurant in advance.

Mu Jiu stood in front of the window, looking at his back, as if he saw him go to the prince's mansion, find his sister the crown princess, and tell her about today.

Even if the crown princess has not seen her, she will have a good impression of her, and sooner or later she will have the opportunity to meet in the future, and then in the future, she will enter the crown princess smoothly, is it still a problem?

Yan Ruyu, you wait!

……

Let's say that after Xia Qingbi was rejected by Mu Jiu and Lin Changsheng in disguise, he returned to the Three Princes' Mansion in anger, and was so angry that he immediately summoned the advisors he had raised in the mansion to discuss the matter.

Most of the strategists felt that the three princes thought the best, and talents like Mu Jiu and Lin Changsheng, if they could be used for their own purposes, they would definitely be able to help him reach the top.

But some people also feel that Mu Jiu and Lin Changsheng are not friendly to the three princes, and they will not be loyal if they accept it, so why bother with that energy, it is better to destroy it.

A group of people divided into two factions and quarreled endlessly.

Xia Qingbi had a headache, every time these people fought in front of him, they couldn't give a unified opinion once!

After retiring the strategists, Xia Qingbi returned to his courtyard.

The third princess was waiting at the door, smiling coquettishly, "Your Highness is back?" The concubine has already prepared dinner, does she need to pass the meal? ”

"No, you go back first." Xia Qingbi had a cold attitude, only glanced at the third princess, then walked into his courtyard, drove Xia Jin away, and returned to the bedroom alone, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, always feeling that Mu Jiu gave him a very familiar impression.

I got up, went to the study and rummaged through it, and pulled out an old picture book.

The first page is the current Three Princesses, lifelike, and turned a few pages in a row, time has passed, the little girls who were budding are now married one by one, and even become the mother of the child, every day against the high wall self-pity, intrigue.

Flip all the way to the end.

It was a little girl of thirteen or fourteen, with bright eyes and a clean temperament, even if she just looked at the portrait, she could feel her smart temperament.

Xia Qingbi's eyes fell on the album for a long time, trying to coincide Mu Jiu's face with the face in the album, but he was frustrated to find that there were two people at all.

It was late at night, and Xia Qingtian slowly closed the album, "Someone!" Go to Qizhou! Give me Cha Mu Jiu and find out all the details of her! ”

The same name, the same temperament, is it really just a coincidence?

……

Mu Jiu, who didn't know that he was being investigated, unexpectedly discovered that Yan Yuzhou's people had been investigating Lin Changsheng.

This matter has to start with Ankang, his people found that several guards that Yan Yuzhou trusted very much haunted the same place every day.

Originally, this kind of thing was normal in a large family, but after a few times, Ankang people found that where Yan Yuzhou's people squatted every day, they could see Jiu'an Restaurant.

Such blatant surveillance is also rare!

What a shame!
