Yan Ruoli was already ashamed of herself, and when she got Chu Wenze's words, she immediately said goodbye and went back to her room to rest.

Chu Xiuyang felt that this wine was meaningless, so he also said goodbye to Chu Wenze and went back to the room to sleep, so Xu Huaigu, Gu Yueyue and Chu Wenze were only left in the Guanhai Pavilion.

Xu Huaigu was drinking on the side, listening to the conversation between Chu Wenze and Yan Ruoli, and listening to it was rising.

I didn't expect that there was such a connection between the Yan family and the royal family, it seems that what Chu Wenze said about marrying Yan Ruo and returning to the prince's mansion should be saying that after the old man Yan passed away, he would use the name of the big wedding to give the Yan family joy.

According to the folk rule, children can get married within 30 days after the parents have a white affair, and the purpose is to be happy.

If you don't get married within 30 days, you won't be able to do it for 3 years. Obviously, Chu Wenze is not in a hurry to wait for these three years.

However, what made Xu Huaigu most curious was whether there was any relationship between Chu Wenze and Yan Ruoli?

Are the two using each other, or do they already have a true relationship? Xu Huaigu couldn't see through it. Anyway, Chu Wenze looks like an honest and honest person, but he is the prince of Fusang Kingdom, and he can't say it without a dim sum machine, maybe he just didn't show it, and Xu Huaigu couldn't say for sure.

He held the wine glass and looked at Chu Wenze with interest, thinking to himself: "A royal highness of the crown prince, a young lady of a businessman's family, let's see what kind of grievances and hatreds will be caused." After Yan Ruoli and Chu Xiuyang left, Xu Huaigu and Gu Yue were obviously less restrained and began to drink openly.

Chu Wenze was very interested today, perhaps because Yan Ruoli agreed to his marriage, or maybe he really appreciated Xu Huaigu.

He poured Xu Huaigu a glass of wine, smiled and saluted him: "Xiuyang and I live in the palace all the year round, and we are not free everywhere, so it is difficult to come out to visit the Yan family. I have had a relationship with Yan Ruoli for a long time, and I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I miss it tightly. I talked to her too much before, and I snubbed Brother Xu, and Brother Xu was not surprised. Xu Huaigu smiled generously and said, "Where is it?" I, Xu Huaigu, am not so careful, I will be jealous with women! However, His Highness's vision is indeed good, and in my opinion, Miss Yan is indeed an excellent person. Chu Wenze laughed and said, "Brother Xu's eyes are like torches, he is really a hero!" I remember that after the incident of the Zixia Sect Dao Meeting, there was still anyone in Dongfu Shaozhou who didn't know Brother Xu's name! My little sister and I have been fascinated by Brother Xu for a long time, but we have never seen your appearance, so my little sister was slightly disrespectful to you in Fuyao Sect at the beginning, and I, as an elder brother, toasted you with a glass of wine for her, please don't blame her. Xu Huaigu shook his head and praised: "The little sister is sincere and straightforward, and she is really a gathering of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers." I'm walking in the rivers and lakes, what kind of intrigue has I never seen? Seeing her, it gave me a sense of freshness like an initiation, and it was too late to thank her, so how could I blame her? Chu Wenze poured him another glass of wine, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "That's the best." Gu March listened to the two politely compliment each other, and felt funny in her heart, she neither interjected nor bothered to interject, so she just drank this good wine that she had never tasted, blowing the sea breeze, and looking at the sky and the sea, which was very pleasant.

Xu Huaigu drank a few more glasses, he wanted to know more about the situation of the Yan family, so he asked: "I listened to you before, it seems that the old man Yan is more than seventy, why does this young lady of the Yan family look only seventeen or eighteen years old?" Miss Yan is a child in the side room? Chu Wenze shook his head and hurriedly explained: "That's not the case, Yan Ruoli was born in the main room of Old Man Yan. You are not a local, so you don't know, Old Man Yan not only has a successful career, but also has a very good reputation in our Fusang country! ”

He was born in a bitter cold, started from the coolies on the dock, worked for most of his life, and finally earned the Yan family's current family business by relying on opportunities and risks again and again. And he has never abandoned the wretched wife who fought with him, and he has not taken a concubine in his life. ”

"Yan Ruoli was acquired by Old Man Yan when he was in his fifties, and at that time the Yan family was already quite a big family, so Old Man Yan loved her the most, and hated to have to give her any hardship, and she was also very kind and filial, and everyone liked her very much." When Chu Wenze said this, he smiled a little embarrassedly: "I can't hide it, Brother Xu, when I first met Yan Ruoli, I secretly had feelings for her, which took a lot of effort, repeatedly created coincidences, and went back and forth for many years before I hooked her heart." We should have a wedding soon, Brother Xu, you must come to the party! Xu Huaigu summed it up, looked embarrassed, and politely refused: "I'm really sorry Your Highness, I have an urgent matter, and I will rush to Feiyuzhou soon, it is estimated that I won't be able to wait that long, and I will have to leave in three or five days at most." But I will definitely send the gift, the right should be a little bit of my heart, I wish His Royal Highness and Yan Ruoli a hundred years of good together, early birth of dragons and phoenixes! Chu Wenze saw that he was in a hurry, so he had to compromise and said: "Okay, I know that a monk like Brother Xu is very busy and doesn't like to participate in our worldly affairs, I am already honored that you can come with Lilly." But since you want to go to Feiyuzhou, why don't you take the Yan family's ferry, I remember that the Yan family will have a ferry to Feiyuzhou to set sail soon, it should be Yan Ruoli's second brother Yan Chonglou's subordinates, you can just talk to him at the tea party tomorrow. With your and my face, we will definitely be able to arrange a first-class upper room. Xu Huaigu asked curiously: "Why is this Yan family's ferry still under whom's hands, isn't it all the Yan family's boat, why is it so divided?" Chu Wenze sighed, glanced at him, and said, "That's not because Old Man Yan's limit is approaching. It was not easy for him to earn this piece of family property, and naturally he didn't want to waste it in future generations, so he made an agreement to let the most capable children take over the Yan family. ”

"As for how to be considered the most capable, Old Man Yan set up a test for the Yan family's eldest young master Yan Jiuge, the second young master Yan Chonglou, and Miss Yan Ruoli."

In fact, this management and business matter is nothing more than two things in hand, that is, human and financial resources. The test is very simple, the Yan family has a total of fifteen transcontinental ferries, each of which is divided into five, and those monks who have accumulated over the years of the Yan family can freely choose one person to take refuge. A month later, when Old Man Yan died of illness, whoever made the most money on the ferry, and the people under him were more powerful, who was the next head of the Yan family. Chu Wenze said again: "It is because of such a test that Yan Chonglou and Yan Jiuge have been running around recently, one is to recruit merchants for their ferry and earn more silver, and the other is to try to win over those original offerings as much as possible, and find new offerings." If I can recruit new offerings from outside, it will be considered a great achievement, so I am so busy that I don't even give me face. Reading the book, Xu Huaigu smiled slightly: "I made a mistake in my busyness, and I didn't even give His Royal Highness the Prince." Don't they understand that after winning over His Royal Highness the Prince, it is really more true than how many monks have come to worship him? It seems that these two people are also conformist people and will not be flexible. Chu Wenze was praised by Xu Huaigu, a little fluttering, nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's true." The two of them didn't have any business minds, and what they did was nothing more than follow Old Man Yan's old routine and eat the old book. As time goes by, I don't know how to change, and the disadvantages will inevitably be revealed. And Yan Ruoli has no interest in business, and he doesn't want to participate in this battle at all. After she took the five ready-made ferries, she released the news to see who could be better between Yan Chonglou and Yan Jiuge, and she would recognize whoever was the head of the family. ”

"Ruoli is indeed a good girl, kind-hearted, and beautiful, as long as I marry her, I will be satisfied in this life." Xu Huaigu looked at Chu Wenze's happy smile, it didn't look like a fake, and he was even more relieved of him.

It's just that Xu Huaigu still has a question, so he asked: "Anyway, the power of this Yan family is so big, how many monks are there under him?" Chu Wenze's expression became solemn and said, "Speaking of this, the Yan family's offerings are really a lot, and they are very powerful. At present, the highest realm is a monk of the Nine Realms, named Fan Chen, and there are also three monks of the Eight Realms, named Wu Qun, Zheng Fu, Lin Liangyue, and the monks of the Sixth Realm and the Seventh Realm are even more numerous. They are all from the mountains and fields, and the Yan family spent a lot of immortal money to cultivate them, and they are loyal to the Yan family. Xu Huaigu couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart: "What loyalty do these people have?" It's not just about going where you see the benefits. If the Yan family falls in the future, there will be no Wang family and the Li family who will take over the richest family in Xicheng to see if they are still loyal to the Yan family at that time? However, the strength of this Yan family really surprised Xu Huaigu.

There would be a Nine Realms cultivator who would all climb under the eaves of the Yan family, which Xu Huaigu never expected before.

One Nine Realm cultivator and three Eight Realm cultivators are all about the same as a second-rate sect like Qingfeng Valley, and it seems that the power of these rich and noble families must not be underestimated.

Chu Wenze continued to explain: "It is said that among these monks, Fan Chen, a monk of the Nine Realms, took refuge in the Second Young Master Yan Chonglou, and the other three monks of the Eight Realms each took refuge, and Yan Ruoli was under the Eight Realms Sword Cultivator named Wu Qun. These people will attend the tea party tomorrow morning, and Brother Xu can get to know them by then, so they must have been very interested in you for a long time. Xu Huaigu nodded, he also planned so.

It's just that Yan Ruoli didn't have the idea of being the head of the house at all, and there would be an Eight Realms monk to follow, which was unexpected by Xu Huaigu.

It stands to reason that although after the head of the family is elected, these monks are still a family, but there is a difference in intimacy, and those who stand on the right side will naturally be treated better, this Wu Qun is willing to take refuge in Yan Ruoli, who will definitely not become the head of the family, his behavior is a little strange.

Chu Wenze and Xu Huaigu chatted about some inconsequential topics again, and they had been drinking all the time during the period, Xu Huaigu didn't care, but after a while, although Chu Wenze had a good amount of alcohol, his face was already red, and he was too strong to drink.

He smiled and confessed, clasped his hands into fists and said: "Brother Xu, I am ashamed that I can't drink you, and I will accompany Xiuyang to the Lantern Festival tomorrow, if I am confused, she will blame me again." I'll say goodbye first, and Brother Xu and Miss March will sit down again, this wine is rare to drink. Xu Huaigu glanced at Gu Yue, and saw that she was also drunk, lying on the table in a daze, her two eyelids were inseparable as if they were fighting, and she was drowsy, so she said: "The wine needs to be there to enjoy it, since Your Highness is leaving, I won't drink it anymore, see you at the tea party tomorrow morning." Chu Wenze said: "There will be a maid to lead the way tomorrow morning, Brother Xu will sleep well tonight." Xu Huaigu nodded, Chu Wenze suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked, "Brother Xu really won't go with us tomorrow to put lanterns?" The Yan family has a special craftsman to make lanterns, and the lamps are made of real works of art! It would be a shame if you didn't look at it. Seeing that he was so enthusiastic, Xu Huaigu had no choice but to agree and said: "Thank you for Your Highness's preference, then according to Your Highness's wishes, tomorrow Xu will accompany Your Highness to a Lantern Festival." Chu Wenze drank the wine and laughed heroically: "Okay! Since Brother Xu is willing to give me this face, in the future, the royal family of Fusang Kingdom, at least my lineage, will be Brother Xu's friend! If there is anything I can help in the future, Brother Xu just say it! Xu Huaigu also smiled: "Your Highness is too polite, if Your Highness has anything I can help in the future, you can also tell me that someone Xu is willing to do a modest contribution for His Highness." Chu Wenze laughed repeatedly: "Okay, good, it must be so." Then don't disturb Brother Xu's rest, we'll see you tomorrow morning! Xu Huaigu nodded, and went to the resting room with Gu March under the guidance of the maid.

He was a little curious, when the people of the Yan family and the royal family gathered together, what would the tea party look like tomorrow morning?
