Chapter 166 Introducing the Wolf into the Room (1)
When Dongfang Sui arrived at Fanjing of Chen State, he heard that the four-nation allied forces of Qi, Wei, Chen and Shu had recruited 80,000 soldiers in Zichuan of Shu. At this time, the armies of the four countries each had 20,000 soldiers, and they were still recruiting. He knew that the army of King Sheng of Chu State was also
There were 80,000 soldiers, and the Song Dynasty was said to have 300,000 infantrymen alone. He looked in the direction of Shu with some worry, thinking that if Brother Rong and the others did not recruit at least 100,000 troops before the beginning of winter, what would happen with the current situation?
80,000 troops went to attack the Song Dynasty. I am afraid that the 300,000 infantrymen of the Song Dynasty would have trampled the 80,000 Restoration Army to death before the Song Dynasty’s cavalry came out.
Following Sister Yan's instructions, he first came to the Linjiang Restaurant branch in Fanjing, where he saw a well-dressed man in his fifties talking to a beautiful young woman who looked to be in her thirties. The young woman had slender eyes.
Su Shou tried to break away from the uncle's clutches several times, but he always pulled him back. He guessed that such a beautiful woman in the restaurant was probably Aunt Yan who raised Sister Yan.
Dongfang Sui strode forward with great disdain, used brute force to pull away the old man who was obsessed with the young woman, saluted Yan Xiao and asked, "May I ask if your aunt's surname is Yan?"
When Yan Xiao nodded, the uncle pulled Dongfang Sui away and said angrily: "Where did you come from, that brat? How dare you interrupt me to say goodbye to Madam Yan!"
It turns out that the evil uncle in Dongfang Sui's eyes is Zhao Qi, who has been waiting for Yanxiao for ten years.
When the three guards of Prince Sheng's Mansion saw that Zhao Qi dared to drag Dongfang Sui, the three of them pulled Zhao Qi aside. Zhao Qi looked helplessly at the twelve or thirteen-year-old boy and asked: "You stinky boy"
Dare you use force with me? Don’t you know my name in Chen State, Master Zhao Qi?"
Dongfang Sui heard him say that he was "Master Zhao Qi", so he waved his hand to the three guards of Prince Sheng's Mansion and said: "Let go of Master Zhao Qi, we are all our own."
Zhao Qi said angrily: "Who is one of your own? You brat, you are dressed in Chu country clothes, but you don't have the gentleness and elegance of Chu people at all? Did the seven kings of your Chu country fight for too long and beat all the people?
You don’t know how to speak, but only use your hands?”
Dongfang Sui ignored Zhao Qi, and saluted Yan Xiao: "Aunt Yan, my nephew's surname is Dongfang, and his only name is Sui. I specially brought sister Yan's family letter to you." Then he took out Shu'er from his arms and handed it to him.
A thick letter from him was handed to Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao didn't open the family letter, but when she saw the handwriting on the envelope, she knew it was Shu'er's own handwriting. She asked curiously: "I wonder how the young master Dongfang met our Shu'er?"
Dongfang Xin put his hands on his hips and said, "Well, it's a long story. But when Sister Yan got married in Shu, I, as her younger brother, attended her wedding banquet."
Yan Xiao and Zhao Qi looked at each other, then opened a thick stack of letters in their hands, starting with the word "Yan Aunt", and wrote more than twenty pages eloquently, using precious mahogany sheets produced in Sichuan.
Paper. Yan Xiao wanted to take it to a quiet place to read carefully, so she folded the more than 20 pages of mahogany tissue paper and put them back into the parchment envelope, only to find that there was another tissue envelope in the parchment envelope. She took out the tissue envelope, and there was
It says "Uncle Zhao Qi personally opens the door".
Zhao Qi happily accepted the letter and said: "Little girl with white eyes and wolf, she still has good intentions! She knows that I have taken care of her all these years because of Uncle Qi! Now that she is a general, she will definitely not be able to control half of her business in Chen country.
, so she wrote a letter to give all her money to me, Zhao Qi!"
Yan Xiao rolled his eyes at Zhao Qi and said: "The Yan family's property, whose surname is Yan and not Zhao, don't be so foolish as to think that Shu'er will leave me the money for my retirement!"
Zhao Qi snorted, smiled and said: "Ms. Yan, you will be mine sooner or later! Rather than entrusting half of Chen Guolai to provide for you in old age, why not entrust the rest of your life to me, Zhao Qi. Besides, I'm sorry.
Isn’t it that the Yan family property in my son’s name was saved for you by her, Uncle Zhao Qi, who worked hard and diligently?” So he opened the letter happily.
Shu'er's letter to Zhao Qi was concise and concise. It mainly asked him to use all the cash that could be turned over from Yan's industry as military pay for the Allied Forces of the Restoration, and to use all the inventory of the rice noodle shop under Yan's name as restoration.
Food and fodder for the Allied Forces. Other businesses are operating normally without any changes.
Zhao Qi's face became darker and darker as he watched, and finally he sighed, folded the letter, handed it to Yan Xiao, and said: "White-eyed wolf is White-eyed wolf! Let Su Yang and Su Liu follow Shu'er's instructions.
Come on! As expected, Zhao Qi and I still have to rely on our own efforts! Without further ado, Madam Yan, please wait for me to come back!"
Zhao Qi gave a hasty salute to Yan Xiao, and was about to turn around to leave when Yan Xiao told him from behind: "Zhao Lao Qi, you haven't been doing business outside the customs for four or five years. You must be careful this time! You
Come back well, and I will give you half of all the property Shu'er left me."
Zhao Qi waved his hand with his back to Yan Xiao and said: "I promise, this is the last trip outside the customs for me, Zhao Qi, in my life! I will come back to marry you after I make my last big fortune!"
Dongfang Sui looked at Zhao Qi's back and suddenly felt that people really cannot be judged by their appearance. Just a moment ago, he thought that the old man who was obsessed with women was a scum in the world, but now he felt envious and regretful. He turned to Yan Xiao and said, "If
If I have something important to do and have to return to Chu State as soon as possible, I also want to follow Master Zhao Qi to visit outside Jinyang Pass!"
Yan smiled and said, "Young Master, if you need any help in Chen Guo, please feel free to tell me."
Dongfang Sui whispered: "Aunt Yan, I was sent by the prince to take Aunt Su back to Chu. Brother Lin has returned to the palace, but there are frequent wars in Chu, so brother Lin has no time to come in person."
While Yan Xiao looked at Dongfang Sui, he pulled him to a secluded private room in the restaurant and asked, "I wonder what the connection between the young master and King Sheng of Chu State is?"
Dongfang Sui answered frankly: "My father is the first counselor of Prince Sheng's Mansion, Dongfang Yu. I grew up in Prince Sheng's Mansion, and the prince is like my adoptive father. When it comes to taking the princess back to Yuling, no one can trust the prince.
, the people who reassured him were all too busy, so the prince and brother Lin decided to let me, an inconspicuous little guy, go to Chen country, and my father also agreed to let me come out and experience it. I was supposed to go two months ago
We arrived at Fanjing, but on the way we went to Zichuan to drink the wedding wine of Brother Rong and Sister Yan, so we arrived late."
Yan Xiao said cautiously: "How can you prove that what you said is true, young master?"
Dongfang Sui said: "Aunt Yan, can you ask the princess for me? She said that when she left Prince Yu Lingsheng's mansion eleven years ago, there was a black diamond pendant that the prince gave to the young master, but there was a dragon-like body on it.
Scratch?" After saying that, he took out the family letter written by King Sheng to Su Qin from his arms, handed it to Yan Xiao, and said: "My nephew has to go to Jinyang Palace to deliver a family letter, so I won't talk to Aunt Yan.
