Xiaoduan Xiaowu came over with a happy and eager face, and when he heard Ah Che's words, he was immediately unhappy.

What is ...... called? How did they get here?

"Brother Ache, what are you talking about, the girl is finally able to settle down now, of course we have to come to work!"

They were also picked up by the girl seriously, isn't it normal to come to work?

If they don't come again, I'm afraid the girl will forget about them, the girl is so powerful now, there must be no shortage of people around her!

They are in the mansion of the eldest princess of Xuanzhou, although there is no shortage of food and drink, but the children who crawled out of the mud can't raise a temperament that is content with the status quo. The two are afraid of being discarded again, they can't see the girl for a long time, and they can't exert any strength, so they will inevitably have a sense of uneasy crisis. net

Seeing that the two of them were wronged at this moment, Ah Che hurriedly made up for it, "I didn't mean that...... I mean, before the girl could send a message for you to come to Jiangdu, why did you come here suddenly?"

Ah Che said, gesturing to look behind the two.

Xiao Wu replied at this time, "It was Her Royal Highness the eldest princess who sent someone to Jiangdu, so we followed by the way!"

At this time, in the long procession of carriages and horses, a lake-blue figure jumped out of the carriage, walked over, and smiled at Ah Che: "Little Ah Che, meet again."

Ah Che was stunned for a moment, and raised his hand to salute: "Shake the golden girl."

Whenever he saw the shaking gold, Ah Che couldn't help but think of the situation when he first met the other party - it was in the ancestral grave of the Chang family in Jingshi, and he was very energetic in digging the pit.

Shake Jin can't help but think about it, but she is older enough to ignore some embarrassing memories maturely.

At this time, Chang Kuo came out of the Thorn Shi Mansion with people, and Chang Houye, who was talking and laughing with his subordinates, saw the shaking gold, his smile receded, and he frowned very quickly.

has been a carrier pigeon between the eldest princess and Chang Kuo for so many years, and from time to time is also responsible for conveying the shaking gold of the two people's scolding words, which has long been accustomed to this, and still smiled and stepped forward to salute: "I have seen General Chang Da."

Chang Kuo looked at the convoy behind her warily: "...... What do you mean?"

"These are the congratulatory gifts prepared by His Royal Highness for Mrs. Chang." Shake Jin smiled and added: "The great victory of retrieving Jiangdu for He Chang's lady——"

Of course, this is just a lie, at least not true.

The eldest princess of Xuan'an really congratulated Chang Suining for her new position as the assassin of Jiangdu, but when the convoy set off from Xuanzhou, the holy decree of the official had not yet arrived in Jiangdu, so she always had to be subtle and prudent in her rhetoric.

"It turned out to be a congratulatory gift." Chu Xing was half surprised to alleviate the impolite atmosphere created by his own general, and half was sincerely surprised: "At first glance, this formation should be regarded as a dowry."

Dowry?

Who to hire?

He would never have said yes! Don't even think about it!

Chang Kuo sneered in his heart.

In the face of such distinguished guests and generous gifts, Chu Xing, who was not good at communicating with people, was forced out of the market by his own general, and thanked him again and again: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is really generous, I have waited for the first generation of girls to thank you."

"It's mostly just fireworks." Shao Jin said with a smile: "Your Highness said that Chang Niangzi has won great victories one after another, and now Jiangnan is safe, such a great joy should be lively."

Chu Xing is clear, it is fireworks, fireworks are made of gunpowder, and they have always been controlled by the government in the people, no wonder so many people come to escort them.

Chang Kuo glanced at it, and in front of everyone's eyes, for the face of His Royal Highness the daughter, he finally said forcefully: "Ah Che, you are entertained!"

It's just that this loud tone, those who don't know, still think that it is the kind of hospitality that wants to put out one hundred and eight kinds of torture instruments.

After Chang Kuo's words, he didn't stop at all, and took Chu Xing and the others to get on the horse and leave.

"Dare to ask General Chang where is this going?" Looking at the departing centaurs, Shake Jin asked Ah Che.

Chang Kuo's trip was to prepare for the battle against the Japanese invaders, and it was no secret that Ah Che answered truthfully.

Shake Jin was silent, I don't want to come back in a short time, but His Royal Highness is still there

Let her say something - yes, your father is really good, it's not enough to find death by yourself, and you will stuff your son to the battlefield too! If the year is out of the half-point pool, the palace will definitely burn down the ancestral tomb of your Chang family!

Chang Kuo, who was able to escape the warning of burning the ancestral grave because he walked fast enough, was on a horse at this moment, and the horse's face grew on the person - Gaine Chang Kuo's face was really long.

Chu Xing, who was on the side, said, "General, there is something that my subordinates don't understand......

Chang Kuo interrupted his subordinates irritably: "...... Hugh wants to ask more, I don't want to mention her!"

"......" Chu Xing was stunned for a moment, but he subtly understood who "she" was in the mouth of his own general, so he ...... Who, exactly, is mentioning it?

Chu Xing, who knew a little about the events of the year, but didn't know the whole picture, suppressed his thoughts and said, "The subordinates don't want to ask about the eldest princess, what the subordinates want to ask is ......

Chang Kuo's face turned red like pork liver for a while: "...... Where do you come from so many things you want to ask?"

Chu Xing's face was wronged, he clearly didn't ask anything!

As Chang Kuo spoke, he shouted "drive" angrily, drove the horse faster, and threw Chu Xing behind.

Chu Xingbian quickly caught up again, and said with perseverance: "General, my subordinates want to ask, why did the girl bring the grenade to Jiangdu?"

When he first saw the grenade in the Assassin's Mansion yesterday, he thought it was fake, or like the sword on the girl's body, it was deliberately imitated out of reverence for His Royal Highness the Former Prince-

The Yao Sun Sword is all imitated, and it makes sense to find a horse that looks the same, right?

It's just that...... The body shape and coat color are similar, how can the white on the forehead be exactly the same?

Dyeed?

At that time, by the lotus pond, Chu Xing reached out and rubbed the forehead of the grenade out of an inquiring mind, which caused the durian to be furious and almost put Chu Xing into the pond.

Chu Xing, who escaped with his skills, had the answer in his heart - it was a real grenade! Whether it's the whiteness of the forehead, or this fierce character...... It's all like a fake!

So, the question is, why did the real grenade appear here?

There is nothing wrong with having a sense of reverence, but the girl herself is also a proud person, so she is willing to live in the shadow of His Royal Highness the former prince?

Chu Xing is often heartbroken by the psychological state of his own girl.

"Ask...... I asked someone to pick it up, I want to give the grenade a pension, can't you!" Chang Kuo replied with a complete loss of patience.

Chu Xing: "...... Okay."

The more Chang Kuo thought about it, the more annoyed he became: "There is nowhere to use the silver, and the burning is panicking, what kind of fireworks are sent at this juncture, flashy...... Can you eat or drink? With these gunpowders, it's not good to use them to do something, just count her Xuanzhou wealthy! It stinks here!"

Chu Xing: "......."

Well, before the fireworks were released, the general blew them up first, and it seems that there is no way to communicate normally today.

At this time, Chang Kuo scolded and went on the road, and on the side of the Assassin Mansion, Shaojin had already taken Xiaoduan Xiaowu and saw Chang Suining.

Xiaoduan Xiaowu saw the girl who was thinking about it day and night, and knelt down and kowtowed first.

When the two stood up, Chang Suining nodded with relief: "Yes, I have grown a lot taller."

Thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys, if they are well raised, are very fast.

Chang Suining still remembers that when the two of them were picked up outside Dengtai Tower during the Dragon Boat Festival last year, they were all skinny little monkeys, and now they have poured out the radishes that have fallen into water.

Although she doesn't like to eat turnips, she is also comfortable to watch.

However, it is not enough to grow taller, Chang Suining asked, "How has your homework been in the past six months? Has there been any growth?"

The taller and more outgoing Xiao Duan, who had pressed Xiao Wu for a steamed bun, nodded heavily, and then raised his voice: "Three, two, one, up!"

When Chang Sui Ning was at a loss, he had already heard the two of them say in unison: "Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate. The sun and the moon are shining, and the Chensu is listed in the ......"

The two turnips stood straight, their hands down, their chests straight, and their eyes were so firm that they seemed to be about to join the army, like young birds begging for food in a bird's nest

opened his mouth wide and recited a thousand-character text loudly.

When the two of them recited "Virtue is famous, and the shape is upright", Chang Suining raised his hand at the right time to interrupt, and asked again: "What about kung fu?" Can you practice every day?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Duan shouted "up" again, and the two immediately pulled out their long sticks behind them and fought against each other.

Chang Suining looked at it seriously for a while, nodded affirmatively, the strength of the move cannot be faked, and it will be known if there is laziness or not.

Fortunately, these two turnips were not picked up in vain.

Chang Suining roughly checked his homework, that is, let Xi'er take the two active radishes to retreat first and go to familiarize himself with the affairs of the Assassin's Mansion.

Chang Sui Ning expressed his gratitude to the eldest princess's mansion to shake the gold.

The eldest princess of Xuan'an helped her brother heal her injuries, helped her temporarily store her puppet, and helped her raise radishes, which is really grateful.

After drinking a cup of tea, he put down the teacup at this moment, and said with a smile: "Chang Niangzi doesn't need to say thank you, Your Highness said that Huainan Road is adjacent to our Jiangnan West Road, and it has always been cold lips and teeth.

After shaking the gold, he got up, took out a letter from his bosom, and handed it to Chang Suining with both hands: "Your Highness represents the major merchants in Xuanzhou and Jiangnan West Road, in order to resume trade with Jiangdu and other places as soon as possible, and rebuild the trade routes that have been cut off everywhere as soon as possible."

That's the real thing about shaking gold.

Xuanzhou, which is the head of the Jiangnan West Road, started as a businessman, although it has not been warned, but it has also suffered a lot.

Jiangnan West Road not only has to do business with Huainan Road, but also leads to other places, especially the trade routes facing the north, whether it is water or land, and mostly passes through the boundaries of Huainan Province, because of Xu Zhengye's rebellion, it has been almost paralyzed in a state for a year.

"This is also the top priority for Jiangdu to regain its vitality." Chang Suining took the letterhead, and his eyebrows stretched: "I also talked about this matter with Jiangdu officials yesterday, but I don't know anything about business, and I still need to integrate the views and proposals of major merchants in Jiangnan before it can be further implemented. Now that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has taken the initiative to mention it, the next step will be twice the result with half the effort."

The eldest princess Xuan'an's "active mention" will naturally not be just a sentence, but represents that there will be measures to actively promote this matter.

The eldest princess stated in the letter alone that she would actively cooperate with Chang Suining to reopen various trade routes, and the expenses would be paid by both parties, but considering that Jiangdu was devastated by the war, it could be paid in full by Jiangnan West Road first, and after Jiangdu recovered, it could be repaid one by one.

Chang Sui Ning watched it, and her heart was a little more stable, after all, she was really poor now.

Of course, the imperial court will allocate silver for reconstruction and pension matters, but there are too many places to use the money next, and it is impossible to expect that the current imperial court will really be willing to allocate a sufficient amount of silver-

In the current situation, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, it is better to seek others than to seek themselves, and it is most important to manage their own one-third of an acre of land with heart. Although the great cause was not accomplished, there were more creditors first, but it is better to have a loan than not to borrow.

At this moment, Chang Suining pinched the letter from the eldest princess, only to feel that what he was pinching was a golden IOU.

As the saying goes, if you have a lot of debts, you don't have to worry about it, and this IOU is also a hit, and two are the same, if she is tight in hand, can it also be ......

Chang Suining raised his index finger in his heart, and seriously pondered the possibility of enshrined the eldest princess of Xuan'an as a long-term creditor.

Not only her, but Wang Changshi, who was taking people to count the congratulatory gifts in the warehouse at the moment, couldn't help but be moved, thinking that he would have to persuade his own assassination history when he turned back, and he would definitely have a good relationship with the golden and generous eldest princess Xuan'an.

Thinking that the eldest princess of Xuan'an was so beautiful, Wang Changshi had already begun to scan the surroundings with vicious eyes, screening candidates who were expected to be successful.

Li Tong also heard the wind, and at this moment, the servants of the eldest princess's mansion who were outside the hall to stop her from saluting, looked sneakily into the hall, and asked in a low voice: "...... Which one is the one who is taking the lead?"

The servant also replied wittily, "Back girl, it's the golden girl."

Li Tong's face was embarrassed, she couldn't beat or run, and it was easy for the other party to catch her back.

At this moment, a voice shook gold from the hall: "But the girl is here?"

those

Although the servants were stopped halfway through the salute, the momentary change of movement still did not escape the afterglow of the shake gold.

Li Tong resigned himself to his fate and walked in.

Seeing his own girl, Shaojin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

She finally abducted Chang Langjun back, but the girl was good, followed someone to Xingyang, but lost the person, and hid in Chang Niangzi and didn't dare to go home.

"The girl will clean up in the past two days and go back to Xuanzhou with the servant."

"But...... Sister Chang still needs me here!" Li Tong looked at Chang Suining in a hurry.

Chang Suining couldn't keep up with her wisdom for a while, and looked at Li Tong with a look of tacit understanding - what is the need? How about giving a hint?

"I heard this morning that Sister Chang plans to let all the businesses in Jiangdu run their own businesses, and each elect a person to discuss with the government the strategy of resuming trade!" Li Tong said: "Those merchants, although they are in urgent need of help now, but the businessmen are cunning, who can guarantee that they don't have the intention of taking the opportunity to ask for more benefits?"

"There are many doorways that laymen don't know, and it's easy to be fooled by them!" While Li Tong was talking, he stood beside Chang Suining and recommended himself: "I don't have other skills, but I was born and raised in Xuanzhou, and I have dealt with those big businesses over the years, and it is enough to help Sister Chang check the pass, and it is enough to come up with ideas!"

Shake Jin was speechless for a while, the girl's words were true.

Their eldest princess naturally can't raise a good-for-nothing girl in the house, everyone is different, her girl seems to have a good temperament, but she is a good hand at managing the family's accounts, and in the past two years, she has been able to try to mediate with the major merchants in Xuanzhou.

But His Royal Highness also said that the girl has insufficient downward experience and lacks some downward training.

On the way to Xingyang, the girl's deeds of "becoming a disaster victim" have been transmitted back to the house, and she only feels that what her Royal Highness said is really true, and the girl can see through the tricks of those brocade merchants, but she can't see through those simple and pitiful victims.

And now, looking at the land of Jiangdu, what needs to be rebuilt is not only order, but also humanity, and for the girl, it is indeed a holy place for training.

Seeing that Chang Suining also helped Li Tong speak, he was very hesitant to express his need for Li Tong, and he was a little shaken.

Of course, Chang Suining is willing to help Sister Li Tong - just imagine, if she wants to borrow money from the eldest princess in the future, wouldn't it be much more convenient to have Sister Li Tong as a bridge here?

Shake Jin only said helplessly: "First wait for the servant to return to Xuanzhou, and ask His Highness for instructions."

The distance between Hengzhu and Xuanzhou is not too far, it is only a few days away, if His Royal Highness does not agree, it is not too late for her to arrest people again.

Several people were talking in the hall, and soon, Wang Changshi, who had specially tidied up his appearance, also came to visit.

Unlike other officials, Changshi, as an adjutant of the Assassin's Mansion, largely represents the intention of the Assassin's History. Wang Changshi thought that his own assassin was young and vigorous, and he was not good at pleasing this kind of thing, so he would let him go.

Wang Changshi was ready to post upside down, but found that the people from the mansion of the eldest princess of Xuan'an got along very well with his family's Lord Thorn Shi.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Changshi learned of Li Tong's identity, and he was even more overjoyed, and secretly made a lot of effort in his heart, determined to do his best to entertain this Jinshan girl.

After being sent a shake gold to rest temporarily, Wang Changshi accompanied Chang Suining to the study, and on the way, Chang Suining suddenly thought of one thing: "Speaking of which, did Changshi miss one thing...... Does the long history still need to be questioned by the saints?"

Historically, all those who hold the post of assassin in Dasheng have to be personally questioned by the Son of Heaven, and those who pass can take office.

Chang Suining's situation is special, and he has not yet entered Beijing, so it is said that Changshi should replace this matter.

Wang Changshi slapped his forehead suddenly, yes, it is said that Lord Assassin Shi still needs to pass the examination before he can deliver official duties.

But yesterday, the Lord Assassin came up and took care of his official duties in a big way, and he didn't give people a chance to react at all, and no one in the officials present yesterday dared to say anything.

Speaking of this matter at this time, Wang Changshi shook his head with a smile: "If you don't take the exam, why do you need to go down to the official to take the exam."

"But Changshi always has to give an answer to the imperial court

of—"

"This is a simple ......" Wang Changshi was very upright, and whispered: "Go back and the officials will give you a record of the best, and let people send them back to the capital to ......

Chang Suining nodded with satisfaction: "Then it will be hard and long."

After Wang Changshi was polite, he asked thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, Xia Guan is very curious, the lord is so familiar with local affairs, and he has the ability to govern under this body...... I don't know where I learned it?"

"These...... Most of them learned from their teachers." Chang Suining said casually.

Teacher.

Wang Changshi nodded knowingly: "Yes, although Qiao Sacrificial Wine is now in the position of sacrificial wine, he was also the first strategist under His Royal Highness the First Prince, and he was born as a champion...... Speaking of which, it's a condescension now."

"It's not a condescension." Chang Suining chatted casually with him: "Horizontal and vertical sacrificial wine is just his side business, and his main business is fishing."

Wang Changshi laughed and nodded yes, but in his heart he was still impressed by Qiao Xianjiu, some people seemed to be silent, but they secretly taught such an outstanding student, which was really surprising.

That night, Wang Changshi, who had been talking with Ning Chang for a long time, was deeply touched, and couldn't help but write a letter to Taifu.

The first half of the letter expresses his amazement at Lord Thorn Shi, and the second half praises Qiao Yang, repeatedly exclaiming that "Qiao Sacrifice Wine Teaching is too good".

After expressing it in the letter, Wang Changshi was able to sleep in a happy mood.

In the next few days, among Xiao Min's army, who was about to return to Beijing, there were some disagreements on the matter of "who left and who stayed".
