Shuzhou Road.

Yuzhou City.

Chaotianmen Wharf.

A dark carriage came here in a light rain in early summer.

The driver was a burly man.

He parked the carriage, removed the hat, stood at the window of the carriage with the whip in his hand, and whispered:

"Young master, it's time to Chaotianmen."

"Okay."

The door of the carriage opened.

A slender middle-aged man stood in the light rain.

He glanced around, stretched out an oil-paper umbrella, reached out, and took a middle-aged woman out of the carriage.

Both looked to be in their thirties.

The clothes on his body are not luxurious, but they are very well cut and clean, and they look like a couple doing business.

It's early in the morning, and it's the most crowded time on the docks.

There are porters, businessmen, and some students who are going to Beijing to take the exam.

At this time, the water level of the Yangtze River is just right, board the boat from Chaotianmen Wharf, and go down the river to several wharves in Jiangnan Road.

It is faster and more convenient to go out of Shu from the waterway than from the ancient road of Shuzhou, so there are many people at Chaotianmen Wharf.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Where there are people, there are also teahouses and restaurants.

The man looked at the bustling crowd and said to the coachman:

"Rigang, is Dong Niang here?"

"Go back to the young master, the villain will look for it, and she will book the boat a day in advance, and it will be at a certain pier."

The man pondered for a moment, "Okay, my wife and I will wait for you in the riverside tea garden." ”

"Okay, the villain will find Dong Niang and come to meet the young master's wife."

After saying this, Qin Rigang turned around and left, and the man led his wife with an oil-paper umbrella and walked into the riverside tea garden not far away.

There are already many tea customers in the tea plantation.

Most of the tea guests here are taking a temporary break, and most of them are waiting to board the boat.

The two of them came to a corner shed under the beckoning of Xiao Er.

The little two took off the towel from his shoulder, wiped the table, and asked with a smile, "What do you two drink?" ”

"What?"

"There are Emei's bamboo leaf green, there are Mengding yellow buds, there are Qingcheng snow buds and Ba tongue...... These are slightly expensive, twenty copper coins a bowl, but they are all new teas of this year. ”

"Of course, there are also cheap ones, five copper coins a bowl...... Ye is a rich and noble person at first glance, and he wants to go to Jiangnan to make a fortune, right? ”

The man grinned, "Then a bowl of bamboo leaf green, and a bowl of Ba tongue." ”

"Great!"

The little second eyebrow smiled and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by the man: "These tea guests, are they all going to Jiangnan to make a fortune?" ”

Xiao Er's face was a little surprised, he looked at the man, "What's the matter?" Do you still know? ”

"Our Shuzhou Liu Daotai spoke, Shuzhou businessmen no longer need to be insured when they travel, and they no longer need any paperwork."

"I heard that this is the decision made by the regent, those merchants are happy, not to mention a lot less unnecessary trouble, which means that in the future, the scope of everyone's business will be much larger!"

"The villain hasn't been far away and doesn't understand, but when you think about it, you know that it will bring great convenience."

"Hey......"

Xiao Er suddenly sighed and shook his head, "It's a pity." ”

The man asked, "What's the pity?" ”

"Regent, you say such a good regent, he ...... Ay...... How good it is for him to stay in Kyoto, but he wants to go to the Xishan of Chongqing Mansion and pick up the eldest son of the emperor. ”

"Isn't this the end of the calf?"

"The regent was killed in Nishiyama, and the eldest son of the emperor went to Kyoto, and those merchants have a lot more worries these days."

The man and the woman looked at each other.

He asked, "Worried about a change in this policy?" ”

"Of course, who knows if the eldest son of the emperor will negate those policies of the regent after becoming emperor?"

"No, in the past two days, there are at least fifty percent fewer merchants in Jiangnan than before!"

"I'm afraid!"

"After all, the job of doing business has not been treated well by people in all dynasties, and it is still eye-catching."

"They said that if you really earn money through hard work, a policy from the state will come down, and it will be a trivial matter for a guy to confiscate it, and it is impossible to say if he will be ruined."

The little two suddenly looked left and right, and whispered again:

"Master go to Jiangnan, don't really put all your net worth in, or wait a little longer, and then take a look...... The villain was cheap, saying what are you doing, the villain went to bring tea to the two. ”

The little two turned away, and the woman opposite the man glanced at him resentfully, leaned over, pursed her lips, and whispered:

"I'll just say you're inappropriate!"

The businessmen across the country were panicked, and Chu Chu was heartbroken and ran to Mobei with more than 200 women's soldiers...... Mobei is a bitter cold place! ”

"She, how is she also the fourth princess of Ningguo!"

"If you are captured by the desolate people, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"And Xiao Wu, you even hid it from him, even if he really returned to Kyoto and became the emperor, would he still be happy?"

He is Li Chen'an!

Of course, she is Zhongli Ruoshui.

Both of them are completely different from what they used to be.

That's because they all wear extremely realistic masks.

This mask was made by Li Chen'an entrusting Wang Zhengjinzhong to find the best craftsman in Chongqing Mansion at a great cost.

So in this world, the only people who know these two masks are Wang Zhengjinzhong and the craftsman.

Even Qin Rigang and Dong Niang didn't know that they were Li Chenan and Zhong Li Ruoshui.

They were sent by Wang Zheng Jinzhong to find it, saying that they were hired by the young master and wife of a large family, and they were given a large price.

That's enough money for them to live comfortably anywhere for the rest of their lives!

Qin Rigang couldn't refuse, so he became Li Chen'an's coachman and bodyguard.

The current Li Chenan has a thick eyebrow and big eyes.

And Zhongli Ruoshui's beauty was completely concealed by this mask, turning into an extremely ordinary woman's appearance.

Of course, Li Chenan will no longer be called Li Chenan.

He can no longer be called Shadowless Sword Li Wuhuan.

His current name is Xiao Li Feidao Li Xiaofeng.

Zhongli Ruoshui has a lot of opinions about this name, obviously he looks heroic, why did he choose a feminine name like Xiaofeng?

Li Chenan said...... He loved it.

What can Zhongli Ruoshui do?

Li Chenan also gave her a speechless name: Shangguan Feiyan!

Sounds like a woman, but she has no power to restrain herself.

Li Chenan also leaned over and whispered: "Wang Zheng Jinzhong will send someone to protect Ning Chuchu, as for Xiao Wu, he has to be wronged for a while." ”

"From now on, these things can be talked about except when we are in the same room, and not in other places."

"The two of us are going to Wu to join our relatives!"

Zhongli Ruoshui didn't say anything more, because the little two came over with two teas.

Putting down the teacup, Xiao Er smiled slightly:

"Master, we still have girls here who play and sing, and they sing the poems left by the regent before his death!"

"If you feel bored, you can order them to sing, and it's good to listen to them to relieve fatigue and pass the time."

"There are only ten copper plates for a song, do you want the villain to arrange one for you?"

Li Chenan laughed and waved his hand: "Our couple likes to be clean, you go and get busy." ”

"That'...... If you need it, you can greet the villain! ”

The little two turned around and left with some disappointment.

Li Chen'an's ears heard the voices of those tea guests not far away:

"Hey...... Ladies and gentlemen, let's go to Jiangnan first, the old man has some friendship with the Su family in Jiangnan, and the news that Jiangnan got is faster and more accurate than ours. ”

"Su Yi'an, the eldest son of the Su family, is now the subordinate of our Ning Kingdom, and the subordinates of the province are among the servants, changing and not changing...... The Su family may know. ”

"Then, Lao Yao is old."

Gradually quiet.

Many seem to be pondering.

The look on his face was like this rainy day.

It was confusion about the road ahead, and nostalgia for the regent.
