Although Zuo Jin's words about Chen Wu were not very surprising to Zhao Yingqi, Zhao Yingqi had already found Chen Gong, the father of Chen Tao, the vice minister of Wu, who was originally the royal family of Chen Guo, and later left Wu due to the failure of seizing the heir, and changed Chen Guoguo's surname to Zhang as Chen, which means that Chen Guoguo's royal family lineage will be remembered forever.

In fact, in Zhao Yingqi's view, his Chen Palace's change to Chen Wuyi was nothing more than some illusions about the throne of Chen Guo, but when he came to Chen Tao's generation, he found that Chen Guo was quite good under the governance of his uncle, and felt that he might not be able to ascend to Dabao again, so he began to concentrate on running the officialdom of Wu State.

It's a pity that he has been pressed by Wang Hezhi, the prime minister of Wu, Chen Tao wanted to provoke Wu and Chen to provoke the two countries to provoke Zhao Yingqi, but Chen Wu said to outsiders with such fanfare that Zhao Yingqi was a little surprised, Zuo Jin took refuge in Soochow this time, presumably he also found a lot of relationships and ways, so openly and honestly said Chen Xiang's intentions, it was a little too rash.

Zhao Yingqi couldn't help but ask about Chen Wu, and Zuo Jincai and Zhao Yingqi made it clear.

It turned out that the Chen family controlled the copper and iron business in Wu State, and they were the leaders of Wu State's copper and iron business for twenty or thirty years, but in recent years, the copper and iron market in Xuanfu has suddenly been chaotic, and several unknown forces have been mixed in, not only bringing down the price of copper and iron, but also greatly affecting the business of the Chen family with him.

In this case, it happened that Chen Tao wanted to provoke a war between Wu and Chen, on the one hand, his Chen family was the main weapons supplier of the military, and on the other hand, he could also avenge his Lao Tzu, and in the end, if he was lucky, he might be able to mix with Chen Guoguo.

This kind of thing is almost an open secret between the middle and upper echelons of the Xuanfu, the water system in the Wu State is vertically and horizontally, the business is extremely developed, coupled with the limitations of its political system, it is not as centralized as the Zhou State, many livelihoods are private, almost a military kneading, each business country, the royal family personally controls the largest economy of Qianzhuang, so the status is transcendent, but in fact, the people below have some small Jiujiu is also due.

Zuo Jin said this, Zhao Yingqi couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xuanfu City in the northwest, unlike Tongyingfu, Xuanfu, the commercial center of the Shenxi Continent, does not implement a curfew, and the Xuanfu City at this time is brightly lit, as if every day is the same as the New Year of Xuanfu, it is really a prosperous city.

"No, since Chen Xiang's family is the main arms supplier of the military, why don't they have military power and take the initiative to contact Zuo Daxia."

"It's very simple, the main force of Wu is the navy, the shipbuilding industry of Wu is also very developed, although the Wang family of Prime Minister Wang Hezhi only accounts for less than forty percent of the share, but it is all military warships, eight of the ten warships of the navy are from the shipyard of the Wang family, and the other two are also repaired in the port of his Wang family, and the navy is all from his Wang family, how can it be the turn of the Chen family."

"The ship repair is being carried out in the harbor?" Zhao Yingqi was curious.

"That's right, if you don't repair the ship in the port, where can you repair it, you can't push it to the shore to repair it, right?"

"Why can't you push it ashore and repair it? Push it directly to the shore and turn it over to repair it! "Zhao Yingqi seems that if there is a problem with the ship, isn't it the right thing to repair on the shore?

"It's too manpower to push it ashore to repair it, and if you have that effort, you can build a new ship, usually into a wave-free harbor, lower the sails, and then repair it"

"It's really backward," Zhao Yingqi muttered quietly.

Zuo Jin heard Zhao Yingqi's muttering, opened his mouth very exaggeratedly, and exclaimed: "What you said is really not afraid of flashing your tongue." ”

Saying that, Zuo Jin glanced at Zhao Tong next to him carefully, and saw that there was no big reaction, so he continued.

It's a bit off-topic, back to this chapter, because the second prime minister Chen Tao really wanted to intervene in the army, so he came into contact with Zuojin, but he didn't think about it now.

Speaking of this, Zuo Jin also poured himself a cup bitterly.

Zhao Yingqi just comforted him not to take it too seriously, the officialdom of Soochow is very complicated, it doesn't mean that there is no way, you can find another way.

Zuo Jin's eyes lit up, and he hoped that Zhao Yingqi would help him, Zhao Yingqi and Zhao Tong were famous in a battle outside Tongyingfu, and they retreated with two enemies and five enemies, and the more important thing is that the ability to command the army is only high, and now that he has come to Xuanfu, I am afraid that there will be contact with the DPRK and China in two days, if he can help him Zuojin introduce one or two, find a better way, it will save a lot of trouble.

Zhao Yingqi thought about it carefully, and then responded.

Soon it will be almost time, although there are still many painting boats and embroidery boats on Xiaojing Lake, but Mu Lian and Liu Yilin are ready to get off the boat and return to the city, they are still Lingren Chu women, different from ordinary geisha, even if nothing happens, but from the perspective of Qunfang Pavilion, it is still inconvenient to spend the night with Zhao Yingqi and Zuo Jin.

However, Liu Yilin saw that Zhao Yingqi liked the night view of Xiaojing Lake very much, and took the initiative to say that after sending their sisters ashore, the painting boat could be lent to Zhao Yingqi for a night tour of Xiaojing Lake.

Zhao Yingqi is naturally very willing, and after thanking the two, he said that he will go to the dock early tomorrow to pick up the two beauties, and these days the two beauties are afraid that they will have to practice singing and dancing on this small mirror lake, so as to adapt to the water performance and prepare for the Huanhua Society.

Zhao Yingqi, the master and servant, and Zuo Jin took the painting boat of Qunfang Pavilion to float on Xiaojing Lake for a night, and finally dropped anchor and stayed in the cabin for the night.

…………

Early the next morning, Zhao Yingqi was woken up by a sound outside the cabin, and it turned out to be Zuo Jin's men.

Zuo Jin came to two or three subordinates, chartered an ordinary Qinglou painting boat, heard him say that there was an appointment today, so he would not go with Zhao Yingqi, and the two agreed to drink together and swim in the lake in five days.

Zhao Yingqi took the painting boat of Qunfang Pavilion and waited on the pier outside Xuanfu for half an hour, and saw Liu Yilin get down from a red carriage from a distance, smiling and coming this way.

Zhao Yingqi went from the painting boat to the dock, carefully helped Liu Yilin to get on the boat, and felt that Liu Yilin's hands were very soft and smooth, like a piece of warm jade.

"Why don't you see Miss Mulian?" Zhao Yingqi lowered his head and watched Liu Yilin's footsteps on the springboard, the southern weather was hot, even if it had just passed winter, it was mostly light gauze clothes and small embroidered shoes, Liu Yilin was careful with every step, and Bai Shengsheng's feet and calves also made Zhao Yingqi's heart flutter, and he couldn't help but glance at it a few times.

"Xu was blowing on the river last night, and it was not very convenient today, so he didn't come out." Liu Yilin finally grabbed Zhao Yingqi with both hands and jumped to the deck of the painting boat slightly, looking at Zhao Yingqi with some playful eyes.

Zhao Yingqi was quite weak because his eyes were a little dishonest just now, so he avoided Liu Yilin's eyes slightly, and said slightly: "Thank you Miss Liu and Miss Mu for your hospitality, I will leave today." ”

Liu Yilin asked with some surprise: "Where is Childe going?" ”

"Take a look at Xuanfu and take a look at the customs and people of Xuanfu." When he spoke, Zhao Tong had already gone ashore and waited for Zhao Yingqi.

Liu Yilin hurriedly stopped Zhao Yingqi, who turned around: "Son, anyway, Sister Mulian is unwell today, and the two of us can't practice, why don't you go on a tour with Son?" ”

Zhao Yingqi turned his head to look at Liu Yilin, and was about to refuse politely, but Liu Yilin's glittering gaze made Zhao Yingqi change his mind and agree.

Zhao Yingqi helped Liu Yilin get off the boat again, but this time he was honest and didn't dare to look at it casually.

Liu Yilin entered the carriage when she came, and Zhao Yingqi and Zhao Tong drove for Liu Yilin on the carriage wheel, and with them was Liu Yilin's little maid.

As soon as she drove out of the dock, Liu Yilin lifted the curtain of the carriage and came between Zhao Yingqi and Zhao Tong, and said with a smile: "Oh, today is really a long face, the two top armor masters of Megatron drove the carriage for me, and the queen did not have this treatment." ”

Zhao Yingqi glanced back, but didn't want Liu Yilin to get too close, and saw a touch of snow white, so he quickly turned around and said, "The carriage is bumpy, Miss Liu is holding it up." ”

"Oh, thank you for your concern." Liu Yilin leaned on the door frame of the carriage, this is good, from Zhao Yingqi's point of view, the snow white is even bigger.

"Xiaotong, help Miss Liu." Zhao Yingqi had no choice but to shift the target.

"Got it, sir." Zhao Tong answered, grabbed the reins of the horse with one hand, put Liu Yilin's hands on his left shoulder with the other, and beckoned Liu Yilin to grasp it.

At this time, Liu Yilin's hands were closed, and finally covered the snow white that made Zhao Yingqi dizzy.

Qunfang Pavilion can cultivate the pampered and innocent Feng Huanhuan into a stunner who fascinates the three princes, not to mention Liu Yilin, a descendant who grew up in Qunfang Pavilion since he was a child, and he is even more clear about all kinds of ideas about men.

Zhao Yingqi's reaction just now fell into Liu Yilin's eyes at all, and at this time, seeing Zhao Yingqi's frozen neck move again, he knew that his little trick must have succeeded.

The happy Liu Yilin leaned on Zhao Tong's back, held Zhao Tong's left shoulder with both hands, and sighed slightly: "Miss Zhao is really ice muscle and jade bones, her figure is too good, and she doesn't feel like practicing martial arts at all." ”

Saying that, Liu Yilin also smiled and pinched Zhao Tong's shoulder, Zhao Tong's eyes rolled, and he didn't say anything, the fragrant beautiful young lady pasted it, to be honest, even the same beautiful young lady is not easy to control.

Zhao Yingqi liberated his head at this time, turned his head slightly to look at Liu Yilin, who was attached to Zhao Tong, and asked: "The girl doesn't practice today, and she will accompany her to visit the Xuanfu together, and she won't report to Qunfang Pavilion?" ”

"It's okay, mothers' ears and eyes are sensitive, and when I returned to the courtyard yesterday, my mother also said that I wanted to be closer to my son and serve a good son." Liu Yilin was obviously more lively after leaving the sight of Qunfang Pavilion, and added: "I also like to come out to play, today's son gave this opportunity, it is the honor of the slave family." ”

Liu Yilin and Mu Lian, who were kept in the yard and cultivated, learned this and that every day just to sell it for a good price after the Huanhua Festival, and they were naturally happy to be able to come out and breathe the free air.

Zhao Yingqi thought about it, and really needed a local to be the boss, so he turned around and asked Liu Yilin very solemnly: "Then if you want to redeem yourself, how much money will it cost?" ”

"What, does Childe want to redeem himself for the slave family?" Liu Yilin was so happy that she threw herself on Zhao Yingqi's shoulder.

Zhao Yingqi didn't have time to indulge in the softness behind him, but slightly gestured to the little maid behind him with his eyes.

"It's okay, Xiaohong is her own person, a good sister of the slave family, she will serve her son with the redemption of the slave family."

"It's still too early to say this, but I don't have much money in the next place, so I may not be able to afford it." At this time, the carriage was slightly bumped, and Zhao Yingqi really felt the softness behind him.

"If it's a son, maybe the mother will not take a penny!"
