The Wang family is also a big family with a century-old inheritance in Jiangnan, and it may not be comparable to the Xia family, but it is still more profound than the Fu family, which later made a fortune with the way of businessmen.

In addition, the Wang family is also mainly engaged in business, and has a lot of contacts with the Fu family, so the relationship is naturally much closer.

At the beginning, Fu Hongzhuo asked to marry the young daughter of the Xia family, and what he liked was the status of the Xia family in Jiangnan, and he could give him a backer.

But the Xia family has always been one and the same in Jiangnan, and even the mother with Fu Ru'an is also a strong character.

This is not a good thing for the ambitious Fu Hongzhuo.

Later, the other party gave birth to an eldest son who didn't know how long he would live, and the love between the two became thinner and thinner.

Fu Hongzhuo set up with the Wang family and married the Wang family at a very fast speed, which had been planned for a long time.

In Jiangnan, the Fu family's industry accounts for half of the country, and the Wang family accounts for almost half of the remaining half.

With such a family, at least in the business road in Jiangnan, Fu Hongzhuo has no worries.

The only thing he needed to worry about was the attitude from the Xia family.

Therefore, even if Fu Ruan was willing to go to Lingnan alone to avoid the disturbances brought by his family, Fu Hongzhuo did not dare to really ignore this son.

What should be sent every year, and what greetings should be given, he must do it in place.

What if you have money?

Compared with the Xia family, who has controlled Jiangnan for hundreds of years, the money of the Fu family just gives them some confidence. Want to really stand on the same level? Completely impossible.

An official is an official, and a businessman is a businessman, and this is a horizontal ditch that can never be crossed in this era.

"Wang's heart is more than just the position of a master mother."

With a faint smile, Fu Ru'an shook the folding fan in his hand, and had already seen through his stepmother's thoughts.

Fu Hongzhuo covets the Wang family's business, why doesn't the Wang family covet the wealth of the Fu family?

Otherwise, how could the Wang family have the courage to risk offending the Xia family and send their daughter to the Fu family.

Xia Bohan was displeased with this, and his eyes became cold.

"The Wang family's appetite is really not small!"

In the eyes of the Xia family, the Fu family's money is nothing.

As a family guarding Jiangnan for generations, the real strength of the Xia family is far from being comparable to these just by relying on decades of accumulation.

It's just that since his nephew is the eldest son of the Fu family, it should be his, and others can't get involved!

"If you go outside, you must first settle inside. It seems that after this trip is over, we will have to clean up the atmosphere of Jiangnan when we go back, and those little moths will not cause trouble to our great cause!"

Xia Bohan's methods and heart are not as gentle as his younger brother, otherwise how could he be in his current position?

Ye Hao, who was studying at night in the palace, didn't know that she was being used as a shield, and she was concentrating on the staff training of the weaving workshop.

The weavers, embroiderers, and dyers are easy to say, and their work is that as long as they can ensure that they can complete their work, there is nothing to pay attention to.

The problem is with the guys in the store.

Ye Hao's weaving shop is ready to be carried out according to a modern business model, naturally it can't be like this era, the guy just needs to see what the customers need.

Such a sale is too blunt and not suitable for subsequent development.

Although she has never worked in sales, she is also a girl, and she will occasionally be pulled by a few little sisters to go shopping together when she is in college.

If it's too advanced, don't study it, and the whole basic trick will still work.

After pondering for a while, she wrote down all the points she thought of, and prepared to discuss them with Xie Yunshu or Steward Yue in the future.

Night.

Glancing at the closed door, Xiaoqin motioned to the sisters beside her with her eyes and asked them to open the cigarette.

Xiaoyan is simple and timid and afraid, although these local palace maids have never bullied her, but to these people,

She still looked frightened and didn't dare to disobey the other party.

Seeing Xiaoyan being taken away, Xiaoqin turned around and walked out quickly.

When she came back again, she had a small cup of soup in her hand.

Walking to the door, Xiaoqin reached out and knocked on the door.

"County Lord, are you still resting? When the slave saw that you didn't have dinner, she went to the dining room and stewed a cup of soup, would you like to drink some?"

Zhao Yunqing, who had been lying on the bed for an afternoon, heard this, let out a deep breath and decided to act at the opportune point.

She sat up and said to the door:

"Bring it in."

Hearing this, Xiaoqin entered the house with the soup cup, put it on the table, and placed Zhao Yunqing for dinner.

Seeing that the other party was getting closer, she hurriedly spoke to reassure.

"The county lord doesn't need to be angry about the events of the afternoon, those are fools, how can they be compared to you?"

After drinking two sips of soup, Zhao Yunqing was in a messy mood when she saw that Xiaoqin cared so much about herself, so she unintentionally revealed some of her thoughts.

"Where does this lord care about those untouchables! The lord of this county is worried, my father actually wants me and that sick son Fu Ru'an......

Speaking of this, she realized that she had said a little too much, and quickly stopped her mouth.

King Ruixian asked her to hook up with Fu Ru'an and marry into the Fu family, which was a secret order.

It's also strange that in this Cheng'an Palace, except for Xiaoqin, there is no one who can talk to her to relieve her boredom, so she couldn't help but say a few more words.

Xiaoqin saw that she stopped, and pretended not to understand it smartly.

"Fu Ru'an? Except for the last banquet, the slave and maid seemed to have never seen this prince appear in the palace. However, I heard that this son has a very good relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Fu."

Zhao Yunqing naturally knows this in her heart.

At the birthday banquet, Fu Ruan made it clear that he wanted to protect Ye Hao, and it was impossible for the two to have no contact with each other.

And Xie Yunshu, what she saw that night, she will never forget.

It would be good if Xie Yunshu and Fu Ru'an's identities were reversed, and he would not have to be so entangled and embarrassed.

Seeing that Zhao Yunqing's face had returned to a gloomy appearance, Xiaoqin bowed her head in understanding and didn't say anything more.

It was the former, and suddenly asked:

"Didn't you say you saw Mr. Fu go out to play? Why didn't we meet him?"

When he came back in the afternoon, because he was angry, Zhao Yunqing ignored this.

In addition, after returning and receiving a secret letter from her father, she did not have the heart to consider this mistake.

Xiaoqin shook her head unhurriedly, pretending to be innocent.

"The slave maid also listened to what the little maid at the gate said, he did see Mr. Fu go out alone, and he still muttered that there seems to be a grassland outside the city, the scenery is extremely good, and he wants to go and see it. Maybe we're in the wrong place, right?"

Seeing that her expression didn't seem to be fake, Zhao Yunqing was still fooled, thinking that it was because of her bad luck that she didn't meet the person she wanted to see, but she saw someone she didn't want to see.

Maybe it's a coincidence, she didn't dwell too much on this point.

Early the next morning, Xie Yunshu was called over by Zhao Gaowei and told him that King Ruixian seemed to intend to let Zhao Yunqing marry Fu Ru'an.

For a person who is only from a merchant family, if he can marry the daughter of the prince, even if it is a concubine, it is a high marriage.

With Zhao Yunqing's status, it is more than enough to match the children of the Xia family, not to mention Fu Ru'an, who is also separated by a layer of relationship.

Xie Yunshu didn't expect King Ruixian to be so willing to pay for it, and directly sent a daughter into the Fu family.

Can it be done, if this is a family affair, wouldn't it be to completely pull the Fu family into his hands?

"What do you think?"

When he said this, the expression on Zhao Gaowei's face was not too good-looking.

Even if he has no intention of fighting for the throne, even if he doesn't like Zhao Yunqing, and even if he is discussing ways to punish the other party, he can't see his brother exchanging his daughter for power

For.

Frowning slightly, Xie Yunshu thought for a moment, then raised his head and replied:

"Lord Wang, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to achieve. Based on his understanding of Fu Ru'an, he may not want such a good family business."

Speaking of which, he has dealt with the other party several times, and he knows Fu Ruan a lot.

This person is not willing to bow his head for the sake of power, he has his own opinions and calculations, and he will not easily believe the other party because of King Ruixian's overtures.

Xie Yunshu set foot on the road to Chengpingzhou County to send back the son, and half of the credit was still Fu Ru'an's.

Zhao Gaowei didn't expect him to be so familiar with Fu Ru'an, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"King Ruixian is not a powerless vassal king like this king, he has many capable people under him, and he is very hopeful of competing for the throne. Can the Fu family not be tempted?"

"The Fu family is not moved, I don't know, but Fu Ruan is not a person who is greedy for power. The prince also said that King Ruixian has a lot of capable people, how much future can he have as the son of a sick and weak merchant? Believing this, Fu Gongzi can still see it clearly."

Before coming out of Qingcheng, the conversation between Xie Yunshu and Fu Ru'an exposed the latter's thoughts.

In addition to Zhao Gaowei, several other vassal kings Fu Ru'an didn't seem to be very optimistic, so they would help Xie Yunshu and help him rush all the way to Chengpingzhou County.

is just a wife to a concubine's daughter, or a person with such a brutal personality, Fu Ru'an will probably not agree.

With this speculation, Xie Yunshu is still confident.

Hearing this, Zhao Gaowei bowed slightly, but the expression on his face still did not relax.

"Even if he doesn't want to, but parenting has always been the order of his parents, and he can't help himself. Even if the Xia family comes forward to stop it, my brother Wang is not a fuel-efficient lamp!"

King Ruixian has always been scheming, and what he wants to accomplish must be unscrupulous to achieve the end.

Xie Yunshu has no objection to this.

It's just that he doesn't intend to sit idly by and watch Fu Ru'an fall into King Ruixian's calculations.

"I wonder if the prince can allow Fu Gongzi to be notified in the future?"

The other party has helped his family a lot, whether it is from the perspective of affection or the overall situation, he can't watch this happen.

"Good."

In this regard, Zhao Gaowei did not refuse.

After receiving an affirmative reply, Xie Yunshu hurriedly left the study and returned to his yard.

At this time, Ye Hao was just about to pack up her things and go to the old house, but she was pulled by him.

Xie Yunshu explained in detail that King Ruixian and Zhao Yunqing might want to design Fu Ru'an and form a family affair with him, and asked the other party to notify the past as soon as possible, so as not to suffer from the female tricks.

Hearing this explosive news, Ye Hao was a little stunned, and it took a while to come back to her senses.

Didn't Zhao Yunqing make it clear that she was interested in Xie Yunshu? As a woman, her instincts told her that it was impossible to fake.

Why did you suddenly want to attack Fu Ru'an and forcibly marry him?!

Ye Hao, who was stunned in a daze, was driven out of the door by Xie Yunshu, and took Lin Binjia's carriage to the inn where Fu Ru'an lived.

Looking at their backs as they drifted away, the expression on Xie Yunshu's face was a little solemn.

He is already a person who is the king of Cheng'an on the surface, so he can't get too close to Fu Ru'an, otherwise he will inevitably be suspicious when Zhao Yunqing sees it.

Zhao Yunqing is a fool and not to be afraid, but King Ruixian behind her is not a vegetarian, so she still has to be careful.
