Liu Congwen looked at Qi Ming's face, and then looked at Pei Yuan.Pei Yuan sat down generously, poured himself a cup of tea, and didn't drink it.His expression was calm and calm, and Liu Congwen didn't see anything unnatural in his face.But like that, Liu Congwen became more and more panicked in his heart.The two of them are equal, isn't he the one caught in the middle and being pinched?"
What has Pei Shizi been busy with lately?"
Qi Ming looked at Pei Yuan with a smile and was the first to ask, but his smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes."
I heard that a few days ago, Pei Shizi helped Shuyi take care of those women outside Beijing, it's really hard for you.obviously has a home but can't go back, and Shuyi is too willful. ”Pei Yuan raised her lips and chuckled, looking at Qi Ming without speaking.Qi Ming's words are really hidden in the mystery, dig a pit for him.If he agrees to let him "take care of" so many women, won't he become the object of hatred of the entire Kyoto officials?
Moreover, he is Shuyi's brother, it can be said that Shuyi is willful, he is just Shuyi's subordinate, and it is too much to admit this kind of words."
I haven't seen the fourth princess for many days, I don't know how the princess is doing?"
Qi Ming was stunned, if Pei Yuan was interested in the fourth child before, he could still feel that Pei Yuan wanted to cling to him.But now after many things, he doesn't think Pei Yuan still wants to be in the same camp as him.In order to win him over before, he did so many games, but he didn't invite him, and he came to the Chu family's bureau, but the people of the Chu family also went in later, causing him to lose a dog's leg.Although he didn't have enough evidence to prove that this matter was related to Pei Yuan, once people had suspicions, they couldn't work together.In addition, Pei Yuan obeyed Shuyi later, and even pulled out his person's tongue and sent it to him, which was enough to make Qi Ming feel that Pei Yuan was already on Shuyi's side.Thinking of Shuyi, Qi Ming sneered."
Pei Shizi, what Zhen'er said is also a princess of the dynasty, can you ask at will?"
Qi Ming's voice was a little sharp, as if he was angry.Liu Congwen was consciously pouring tea for himself, when he heard Qi Ming's sudden voice, he was so frightened that his hands trembled, the water in the teapot spilled on the table, he got up in a hurry, and suddenly had an idea, and said: "Your Highness, Pei Shizi, Weichen's clothes are soaked, and he will be lost first!"
”Qi Ming glanced at him, Liu Congwen immediately sat down, and said, "Actually, it's not too wet, you talk, you talk." ”The degree of his dog's legs made Qi Ming ashamed, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was a wall grass, and whoever put some pressure on him would fall to which side."
Lord Liu, this time in Jiangzhou, your Liu family has made a lot of contributions, presumably, you have made a lot of money, right?"
Qi Mingliang said coldly, and the hairs on Liu Congwen's back stood up when he said this.Liu Congwen swallowed his saliva and said, "I don't know about this."
Your Highness, you also know that my second brother is in charge of the money-making business in the family, and I am responsible for being a good official!
”Liu Congwen said this, and smiled shyly."
Fortunately, I live up to the emperor's trust, although there has been no great credit for so many years, there has never been a major event like the annexation of land in Jiangnan."
Qi Ming's face darkened, and his eyes when he looked at Liu Congwen became sharp, I don't know if Liu Congwen unintentionally or intentionally, he actually mentioned the matter of Jiangnan.Although the emperor did not pursue him on the surface, many of the officials who were dealt with were his people.It's a tacit thing."
Is that how much you can get by?"
Qi Ming's eyes stared at Liu Congwen.Liu Congwen's back was numb, and he thought, how can he live if he can't get by?
He is already a second-class member, and his family is still rich.You can't still want to get a knighthood to sit on, right?"
Look at what His Highness said, the minister has not been able to get by!
It is said that 'there are thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy', isn't this a hard work!
”Work hard to spread wealth and win the hearts of the people.It's not just Liu Yanhuan who is doing this, he is also working on it.For example, he invested in building roads in his hometown in Huizhou, and opened up trade roads in Tongzhou, but he was working very hard to save character for himself!
The daughter is right, the husband is not guilty, he has to save more character for himself.If it is really a last resort, the emperor will look at the boiling people's hearts, and he will have to weigh whether to spare their Liu family's life.Before gold and silver, life is the most important thing.It is said that silver is good, and silver is indeed good, but there are too many disputes over silver.Qi Ming saw that he was talking nonsense, but he didn't have a word he wanted to hear, so he interrupted him with a sneer."
Lord Liu, there is a business here in this palace, I wonder if you are interested in doing it with me?"
Liu Congwen smiled dryly: "Your Highness, the minister also said that the family's business is not under my control."
Why don't you call my second brother the next time you come to me for tea?
”His second brother often runs around the country for business, and he can sit with Qi Ming and drink tea.Qi Ming sighed, "It seems that Lord Liu doesn't look down on this transaction in this palace." ”Liu Congwen looked at Xiang Qiming with an expression of "how can you misunderstand me so much"."
Your Highness!
That's not what the minister meant, the minister really can't be the master!
”Qi Ming's face was full of anger, and he was already very upset when he saw Pei Yuan and reminded him of that half of his tongue.As a result, Liu Congwen still didn't know what to do.He also knew in his heart that it was not easy to win over people, he came to see him in person, and he even brought Pei Yuan over!
It's not that I don't want to cooperate, but I don't take him seriously at all!"
Lord Liu, you are so self-conscious."
Qi Ming put down his words, brushed his sleeves and left.Liu Congwen sat on the stool fearfully, and the water on the table had been wiped dry by Pei Yuan with a handkerchief.He pinched his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his head, "How is this good." ”"Lord Liu, drink a cup of tea to suppress the shock."
Pei Yuan pushed the unmoved tea in front of him in front of him, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so you don't need to worry too much." ”Liu Congwen took a sip of tea, thinking that you don't have to worry too much, you have Shuyi as a backer.It's good for the little white face to be good-looking, if he were ten years younger, he would have such confidence."
I'm in trouble today."
Saying that, Liu Congwen slowly realized that the relationship between his daughter and Pei Yuan did not seem to be simple?
Otherwise, how did she invite Pei Kite?
You must know that Pei Yuan's reputation among the ministers of the DPRK and China is not very good.It is said that he is arrogant, has no one in his eyes, and is difficult to get along with.Liu Congwen remembered his daughter's teachings, kept a low profile, and did not participate in the affairs of those parties, but he still heard such words, which shows how negative everyone's evaluation of him is."
It's not a hassle, it's a matter of effort."
Liu Congwen walked out of the teahouse one after the other with Pei Yuan suspiciously, thinking to himself, didn't he come out with himself, didn't that withstand the pressure he had when he faced Qi Ming?
Isn't that equivalent to offending the eldest prince?
What kind of effort is this?
Liu Congwen was in a trance, and only felt that Pei Yuan had redefined the word "effort".Separated from Liu Congwen, Pei Yuan went to Shixiangzhai to buy some signature pastries and went back.On the way, he saw Red Silk sneaking into the alley with a man.Pei Yuan frowned slightly, looked around, and followed.
