"You're humble." He Qunying said, "Among the military generals of the Manchu Dynasty now, who can match you and Shaoyang?" ”

"And how can my edge help you?"

He Qunying leaned forward: "A little private matter." ”

Pei Zhan glanced at him and put down the wine glass that had been sent to his lips: "I won't interfere in private matters." I've never liked to interfere in other people's private affairs. ”

"But it's also about you." He Qunying straightened up when he said this, "I heard that your newly married lady is Ning Bochi's granddaughter, and she also happens to be the daughter of the big boss here. ”

Pei Zhan held the wine glass, looked at him for a moment, and said quietly: "So what?" ”

"I ran a few shops in the south, this year began to turn to the silkworm trade, purchased some field products, and opened a workshop seriously, now the first batch of goods has come out, is planning to go north, but for a while can not find a reliable and affordable boat, I want to ask you and Mrs. Zeng for a convenience, even out of the Ning family a few merchant ships for me to go."

"You want a boat?"

Pei Zhan raised the tail note.

Fu Zhen on the curtain was not able to hear He Qunying's words very clearly, but Pei Zhan's words made her hear them clearly.

Although He Qunying's career has ups and downs, it is not comparable to ordinary officials, and he held a banquet here so solemnly, Fu Zhen thought that he was seeking the benefits of his official position.

I don't want him to be for his own business!

The eldest son of his dignified general's mansion, even if he is not favored, the identity of this son is also there, can't he get a few boats?

"Now at this time, the mulberry silkworm tea and grain in the south are all pouring north, and the ships of every merchant are full.

"I just opened the port, and I couldn't find a boat for a while, but even if I did, the price was also high and scary.

"Merchants seek wealth, and the cost is too high to make money.

"I'm not thinking that the Ning family is such a big business, with deep pockets and a north-south passage, and it will be easy to get out of the two cabins, and then find a noble person like you to make peace with it, presumably the rental money can be more discounted?"

He Qunying said, and filled his wine glass again.

Pei Zhan propped up the table with his elbow on one side, looked down at the table of wine and food, and did not say anything.

Earlier, he said that He Qunying coaxed him over this trip, but he didn't lie a word.

After the early dynasty, he was originally going to go to the Gyeonggi camp with Du Mingqian and Cheng Zhili, but a servant from the military department came and said that Mrs. Ning from Wanbinlou had sent him a message and asked him to come and say a few words.

Pei Zhan knew that Fu Zhen was coming to see Mrs. Ning today, and he was also very happy to come, so he came here after getting the news.

How do you know that He Qunying is waiting under the door, and when they meet, they will lead him to this side.

Pei Zhan knew that Fu Zhen wanted to pull the He family back from Xu Yin's side, and he couldn't turn his face with him, so he sat down.

This table of wine and food is not cheap, plus the two celebrities invited, I am afraid that he will get rid of He Qunying's half-month salary.

When he opened his mouth, Pei Zhan became vigilant, after all, the situation of the He family was there, He Qunying was the son of the unfavored original wife, and he also occupied the identity of the son of the sect, and there must be people in the inner house who looked at him unpleasantly.

For him, the most important thing is to stabilize his identity as the heir of the Great General's Mansion, and the premise for achieving this level is that he has a certain official position and power.

Although Pei Zhan is the same generation as him and is even younger than him, his current status in the court is far from being comparable to He Qunying, even a Xu Yin can carry him, and Pei Zhan certainly has more strength.

So he was the same as Fu Zhen, but he didn't expect that he just wanted a few ships to transport goods.

"Now my warehouse full of silk is piled up in the warehouse, brother, if you help me with this, I will definitely be indispensable to you in the future.

"Brother, you are now famous all over the world, but you are busy defending your family and defending the country and being loyal to the imperial court, so I am afraid that you will not have so much time to set foot outside Beijing.

"In the past two years, because of the cultivation of mulberry hemp, I have made some connections in the south, and I still have to sell me a little face.

"If there is any place where the Ning family can be called by someone over there in the future, just squeak, I will naturally take care of it."

He Qunying drank a glass of wine after speaking, and then glanced at the two servants who were singing.

Pei Zhan said: "I appreciate your kindness, but for the sake of a few boats, isn't it too extravagant for you to spend so much money to entertain me?" ”

He Qunying laughed and said, "What kind of identity are you?" You can sit down and give me a lot of face, even if you are extravagant, that is also my honor. ”

Pei Zhan raised his lips, and glanced at the gray shadow under the curtain without a trace out of the corner of his eye: "But I'm afraid I can't help you, I never interfere in the affairs of my mother-in-law's family." ”

"Brother Gao Fengliangjie, naturally it will not be Fu Yunna and others. It's a pity that I rarely interact with merchants every day, I don't know the head of Ningda, and I don't have a reliable person to recommend me, otherwise I don't need to alarm my brother.

"It's better than this, I won't embarrass my brother, you just need to help me introduce me to Ning Da, and I'll do the rest myself." What do you think? ”

As soon as He Qunying's words fell, Fu Zhen's face on the curtain was cold.

The surname He's abacus can be described as Bangbang!

What is Pei Zhan's identity?

What is Mrs. Ning's identity?

Even if he is Weng's son-in-law, but if Pei Zhan became the leader and introduced He Qunying to Mrs. Ning, a well-known person like Mrs. Ning, can she still agree to allocate the boat to He Qunying?

On the other hand, as long as He Qunying moves Pei Zhan, where does he need Pei Zhan to take action in person? It's impossible for Mrs. Ning not to give this face!

He knew that the price of renting an outside ship was not low, and other families had to use their own goods in their cabins, so the Ning family didn't have to transport goods?

With so many shops in your own house, you don't have to buy and sell?

even found Pei Zhan directly, as soon as Pei Zhan came out, Mrs. Ning would not only save face, but she was afraid that she would even waive the rental money!

God knows how satisfied she is with Pei Zhan's son-in-law now, and now even the Ning family complains in front of his sister every once in a while about how much she has fallen out of favor since her brother-in-law became a brother-in-law!

Mrs. Ning praised Pei Zhan all day long for how brave and resourceful, and knowing etiquette and filial piety, and when she opened her mouth, she said, "Learn more from your brother-in-law" and "See more of how your brother-in-law does it", this is the person recommended by her "son-in-law", it is strange that she will collect money!

Having said that, didn't He Qunying make it clear that he wanted to take advantage of the Ning family?

Fu Zhen pulled the curtain, and he didn't care if he would show his stuffing, and stared at Pei Zhan who happened to be facing this side with a pair of eyes, eager to give him a look and let him refuse!

But this guy has no eyesight to see today, those eyes look at wine and food and look at He Qunying, but he doesn't see her here!

She had no choice but to pick up the spare flask, fill another jug and walk over, pretending to refill them.

Anyway, He Qunying hadn't seen her and didn't know her.

Pei Zhan saw Fu Zhen pick up the wine jug, and his eyelids drooped.

"According to the friendship between the two families, I really shouldn't shirk this busyness. But I still have to go back to discuss this matter with my daughter-in-law, you are afraid that I have also heard that my family is not easy to provoke, if this is not good, I will go back to eat the first ribs. ”

He Qunying smiled: "Brother, you are a great hero, are you really afraid of guilt?" It's okay to lower your body occasionally to coax women to be happy, but don't take it seriously, once the rules are broken, they will kick their noses in the face. ”

Fu Zhen just walked to the side, and when he heard this, he glared at the back of his head. She said that the emperor had demoted him to three levels at the beginning, and it was not too much to rush this virtue and send him to the northwest as a slave!

Fu Zhen filled the cup he gave him with a pot, and then poured it for Pei Zhan. When pouring the wine, he stretched out his tail finger and gently scraped the back of Pei Zhan's hand to sign.

Pei Zhan opened a few fingers and held the tail finger in the palm of his hand.

Fu was really shocked!

What is this guy doing?

He even eats the tofu of a miscellaneous lady?!

As his mind turned, his hand moved away again, as if the action just now was just unconscious.

Fu Zhen lowered his eyes and glared, only to see his hand holding the cup that had just been poured again, and taking out a silk handkerchief with the other hand, slowly wiping a few drops of wine that had been spilled.

He Qunying frowned and said, "Where did you come from such a hairy mother-in-law?" Go down! ”

Pei Zhan stopped: "It's quite eye-catching, so it's okay to stay here and serve." ”

He Qunying cast his eyes on Fu Zhen, and at this glance, he had some understanding: "It turned out to be a little sister-in-law." It's rare for the brother to look pleasing to the eye, and you are at will. ”

After speaking, he called Fu Zhen: "Serve this master well!" ”

Fu Zhen secretly greeted his eighteenth-generation ancestor several times, his face was silent, he lowered his head and retreated behind Pei Zhan, stretched out his hand, and pinched his back hard.

She doesn't believe that this kid didn't recognize herself?!

He warned him not to eat his tofu last night, and today he dared to do it in public, do the right thing first, and see how she cleans him up later!

Pei Zhan took this and couldn't resist a light hiss.

I can't see that this girl is delicate and frail, and her strength is already so great after practicing for a few months! Touching her fingers and pinching her with such a dead hand, if you really want to hold your hand, I'm afraid that I will murder my husband on the spot?

"What's wrong?" He Qunying, who was eating vegetables, couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this hiss.

"Not really." Pei Zhan's face was like a flat lake, "I just think that the two of us are different and don't conspire with each other, and I can't help you in this matter." The Ning family opens the door to do business, if you sincerely ask for help, if they feel that they can help, they will naturally agree to you. If I feel that I can't help, it's not convenient for me to participate in this matter. ”

After saying that, he pushed the quilt forward, pressed the table and was about to get up.

He Qunying held his hand down: "Why is my brother so ruthless? If you really don't want the Ning family to suffer, then I'll simply tell you one more thing, and you can consider it again. ”

He withdrew his hand and looked at Pei Zhan deeply: "Ning Bochi died six years ago, the cause of his death, I don't know if Ning Da Boss told you?" ”

Fu Zhen's body couldn't help but shake when he heard this!

Just now, she was still suspicious of the cause of Old Man Ning's death because of Mrs. Ning's words, and now He Qunying actually mentioned the cause of Old Man Ning's death?

The shock in her heart made it impossible for her to let Zhan leave. She tugged at his robe and sat him back down.

"What do you mean by that?" Pei Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly, "My old man died of illness, and you suddenly told me that the cause of his death was different—is there anything hidden that even my mother-in-law doesn't know?" ”

He Qunying said: "The Ning family has a huge property, and Ning Bochi has taken care of it alone for so many years, which shows how healthy his body and bones are.

But just two months before he died, he suddenly contracted a strange disease, and after two months in bed, there was no cure, and then he died.

"Do you know how he contracted this strange disease?"

Pei Zhan couldn't help but turn his gaze to the side in Fu Zhen's direction, he really hadn't paid attention to Ning Bochi's death, and he hadn't heard Fu Zhen say it, and now he didn't know about it.

He said, "You say." ”

He Qunying looked at Fu Zhen behind him: "Let's let her out." ”

"I don't need to." Pei Zhan said, "I'm used to being served. It's not difficult for my Pei family to let a lady who does chores keep her mouth shut. ”

He Qunying smiled, and then said: "One night two months before Ning Bochi's death, he encountered an accident on the dock where he was delivering goods, and there was a fight between two groups of people on the dock, and he was affected and fell into the water.

"At that time, he stayed in the water for about half an hour, and for a time the Ning family did not find him, and then he was fished up ten zhang downstream from the accident site."

Pei Zhan sighed: "Who is fighting?" What did he encounter in the water? ”

"The two gangs of men in black, who later said to be the two gangs of forces on this dock, who knows?

"As for what he encountered in the water, I'm afraid only he knows. He was said to be conscious when he came ashore, but did not say a word afterwards.

But from that day on, he fell ill. How to heal the disease next, Ning Da should know better, you can go back and ask her, I just have to remind you of this layer.

"With your General Pei's ability, I believe you will be able to find out whether it was an accident or a deliberate one."

After listening to this, Pei Zhan slowly raised his eyebrows.

Fu Zhen behind him hugged the wine jug tightly.

What the surname He said was very consistent with what she heard from Mrs. Ning, could it be that there was really something wrong with the cause of the old man's death?

But how do you know so clearly what your surname is?

In other words, how could he pay attention to a person who has nothing to do with the He family?

"How do you know?"

When Fu Zhen thought of this, Pei Zhan had already asked the question.

"Since I have a request for you, I naturally have to do more work. This is what I heard by accident when I was messing around with those connections in the south. The Ning family's business is all over the north and south, how can no one pay attention to his death? It's just that you have lived in the capital for a long time, and some words can't reach your ears. ”

He Qunying raised his wine glass when he said this, and looked deeply at the other side: "If the Ning family wants to investigate this matter thoroughly, I also said it just now, if you need help, I won't stand idly by."

"I think Ning Da must want to know, it depends on whether you, General Pei, are willing to give her this opportunity and let her know."

Ahhh There are changes, everyone refreshes
