Zhu Qian raised her head. Flushed. He whispered: "Master, I'm sorry. The Nujia forgot. The Nujia is a little inconvenient. I can't serve the master tonight."
This time it was Liu Xin's turn to exclaim "Ah". of course. Liu Xin can also ask Zhu Qian to help him solve his difficulties through other "channels". But today is the day when Liu Rui gets married. Always take care of Zhu Qian's mood. This seems a bit out of place. Liu Xin scolded God for injustice in her heart. There is also a thoughtful look on his face. Said softly: "It's okay. It's good for us to say that."
then. He exchanged a compliment from Zhu Qian: "Master. You are so kind."
Liu Xin hugged Zhu Qian and lay all night. The taste of meat in the mouth but can't be tasted. Only Liu Xin knew it in his heart. but. Seeing that sweet smile in Zhu Qian's sleep. Liu Xin still has a little satisfaction.
Three days later. Many officials who came to attend Sun Ce's wedding banquet began to return to their residences one after another. Mi Zhu and Yu Fan came to say goodbye to Liu Xin early in the morning.
Liu Xin had already returned to the study again. Practicing Fang Tian painting halberd in the middle of the night. Was wiping sweat with his topless body there. The strong muscles made Mi Zhu and Yu couldn't help but be speechless. To know. It's the twelfth lunar month of winter. Their lord was actually naked. This body. It's really good.
Seeing Mi Zhu and Yu Fan walking in. Liu Xin also took a long robe and put it on her body. Said: "The two gentlemen are now ready to go back to Jiangnan. Liu said. I wanted to leave the two gentlemen in Xiangyang before leaving for the new year. Especially Zizhong. Your family is in Xiangyang. How can you have a life? Let's talk about it in the reunion year."
Mi Zhu arched his hands and said, "Thank you for the Lord's kindness. Mi has decided. The people in the south of the Yangtze River will not be stable for a day. Mi will not go home for a day. I hope the Lord will be fulfilled."
Liu Xin was moved. He patted Mi Zhu on the shoulder and said: "Zizhong can have this heart. Liu is very relieved. The Mi family can become the richest man in Xuzhou in Zizhong's hands. I am afraid that only a few acres of Susukino will not work."
Mi Zhu was taken aback. I don't know what Liu Xin meant by asking this. Hesitate for a moment. Leaning and said: "Don't dare to hide from the lord. The Mi family can become rich. What they really rely on is to operate various shops."
This time. Although the merchant ranks last among the scholars, farmers, commerce and industry. But people do not reject merchants. Especially when Liu Hong was in power. Business has developed to an extreme. The Mi family also emerged during that period.
Yu turned over and didn't know Mi Zhu. Work together during the time of accepting refugees. He has been able to deeply feel Mi Zhu's noble character. Can't help but say in surprise: "It is said that no business is not a traitor. Zizhong is an honest man. I am afraid that business is not your best."
The implication. The Mi family can get rich through business. There should be someone else capable.
However, Liu Xin knew that the Mi family could make a fortune in Xuzhou, rich and rich. It all depends on Mi Zhu's efforts. Could not help but waved his hand. Said: "Zhong Xiang's words are wrong. The ancients said. Great wisdom is like stupidity. Great skill is like clumsy. In Liu's opinion. Zizhong is the most sincere business. Those who steal, rape and play slippery. At most, take advantage of it. How can it be? Can last long."
Mi Zhu did not expect that he could get such a high evaluation from Liu Xin. He hurriedly said: "The lord is utterly praised. The subordinates are really ashamed. The subordinates can earn a family business in Xuzhou. It is all luck. After coming to Xiangyang, the subordinates also bought several shops in the city. The business is just tepid. It can be seen that the subordinates are far from doing business."
Liu Xin smiled and said: "Zizhong is self-effacing. This has nothing to do with luck. The Mi family first came to Jingzhou. They haven't made any fame. People in Jingzhou don't know that Mr. is a young man. Naturally, it is not comparable to when he was in Xuzhou. . But. Liu thinks. As long as time is taken, things will change."
I heard the word "Xuzhou". Mi Zhu looked sad. Sighed. Said: "Oh. I don't know what's going on there."
suddenly. A guard walked outside the door. He handed his hands over and said: "Enjoy the lord. Master Ju is asking to see you outside. It is said that there is news about Xuzhou that needs to be reported to the lord."
Jushou is Liu Xin's most trusted person. He doesn't need special report to enter the study. He must have learned that Mi Zhu and Yu Fan are here. That's why I specifically asked the guards to come in and report. Obviously there is some news that I don't want them to know. Of course. Many times the news itself is nothing shameful. It is that the source of the information obtained by Jushou needs to be extremely confidential. Since it is a phantom spy. Naturally, it will not be seen.
usually. Ju Shouhui chose to leave first. After the others whom Liu Xin met had left. Report to Liu Xin again. but. Jushou specifically mentioned the news from Xuzhou. That means. This news is about Liu Bei.
Although Liu Bei's current strength is very weak. But Liu Xin knew that this person was very resilient. Belongs to characters like Xiaoqiang who can't die. Even more difficult to deal with than Cao Cao. That must be highly valued. therefore. Liu Xin emphasized. As long as there is an update about Liu Bei. You must report to him immediately. So that he can make judgments and decisions quickly.
I heard the report from the guard. Liu Xin was about to ask Mi Zhu and Yu to turn a few sentences before sending them back to Jiangnan. But I saw Mi Zhu arched his hand and said, "I will report to the lord. This is news from Xuzhou. I don't know if I can let my subordinates listen to it for one or two."
Liu Xin knew it well. Mi Zhu is a big family in Xuzhou. I heard news from his hometown. Why are you willing to leave? Can't help but smile: "It's all my own. Why not? Come here. Please Mr. Ju."
Hear the phrase "one's own". A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of Mi Zhu and Yu Fan. They never thought of it. Liu Xin actually trusted them so much. Can't help being flattered.
At this time. Jushou has already walked in. Seeing Mi Zhu and Yu turn up to greet each other. Unconsciously stunned. Immediately he arched his hands towards the two. With a sad face, he said, "It turns out that Master Mi is here. That's a coincidence. The news that Ju has gotten has something to do with Master Mi."
Mi Zhu was startled. Just wanted to ask him what he has to do with himself. But Liu Xin had already asked first: "Gongyou. What news did you bring us."
Jushou bowed to Liu Xin. Said: "Lord Qizi. There is news from the army. Master Mi's fields, houses, shops, and manors left in Xuzhou. All of them have been forcibly occupied by Liu Bei."
in fact. Liu Bei seized Mi's assets. Liu Xin knew it a long time ago. Just never told Mi Zhu. It's no use telling Mi Zhu anyway. Wait for Xuzhou to be won in the future. According to the house deeds and land deeds in Mi Zhu's hand, they were taken back one by one. but. Jushou is very witty. He thought Liu Xin heard the report from his guard. Will let Mi Zhu and Yu Fan leave first. Unexpectedly, they were still here. Suddenly the effort. He has already figured out a countermeasure.
No matter why these two people are still here. The Spy Phantom must not be leaked. therefore. As soon as he arrived, he pointed out that the source of the news was military work. The Phantom's Secret Spy was wiped out. But just now he said that it was about Xuzhou's news. and so. What he said now must also be related to Xuzhou.
Liu Bei has always been regarded as a potential enemy by Liu Xin. And Liu Bei's reputation in Xuzhou has always been good. Even Mi Zhu admired him better. then. Jushou took the opportunity to talk about Liu Bei's occupation of Mi's property. Both kept the secret of Mirage. It can also let Mi Zhu see Liu Bei's personality.
Mi Zhu heard that Liu Bei had occupied all his family property. The expression is stagnant. Immediately relieved: "When Mi left Xuzhou. I had already expected today. Perhaps this is just what Tao Shijun did on his deathbed. It has nothing to do with Xuande Duke. I think Xuande Duke is a gentleman. I would never do it. The matter of taking away people’s property."
Liu Xin said disdainfully: "Liu Bei. He is just a hypocrite. Zizhong rest assured. One day. Liu will let those fields, houses, and shops return to Zhao. Gong and. You came just right. Don't rush away. I have something to discuss with you later."
Hear here. Yu Fan quickly stood up. He folded his hands and said: "Since the lord has something else to do, his subordinates resign first."
Mi Zhu was still there. After carefully reviewing what Liu Xin said. Seemingly disbelieving, he said, "Lord. The subordinates carefully consider what Xuande has done. It does not seem to be a fake."
Liu Xin knew that Mi Zhu was an honest person. If he can see through Liu Bei's face. Talking too much by oneself will only arouse his disgust. Could not help but waved his hand. Said: "Some things are benevolent. The wise see the wise. Perhaps it is because Liu has a very different temperament from him. It is not necessarily because he has misunderstood him. Let's not talk about him. After the two gentlemen return to Jiangnan, make sure to arrange the lives of those refugees. Next spring. Liu also plans to visit Jiangnan. The two gentlemen will not let Liu down."
Mi Zhu and Yu Fan handed over together: "Please don't worry, the lord. This is a matter for your subordinates. You must do your best."
Liu Xin nodded. Said: "It's so good. When Jiangnan's things are generally settled down. Zizhong will return to Xiangyang. Liu has important things to be done by you. Jiangnan will leave it to Zhongxiang."
Yu Fan was originally just a county prince. Because the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River are very sparsely populated. It's not important. When Liu Xin had just pacified the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River, it was understandable that he should be in charge of the three counties. now. There are millions of people who have moved south from Xuzhou. Coupled with the development plan set by Liu Xin for the three Jiangnan counties. I believe it will take less than a year or two. The three counties of Jiangnan can achieve considerable development. Liu Xin still gave him the management of the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Obviously there is great trust in him. Yu Fan is grateful. Leaning and said: "Yu has long heard of the master's writing of martial arts. No one in the world can match it. Yu is brave. I want to ask the lord to go to Jiangnan next year. I can compose a poem. So that Jiangnan's reputation can be spread throughout the world.
Liu Xin was taken aback. Youdao is a real person who does not show his face. This Yufan seems to be a good business man too. Actually want to pull myself to advertise for Jiangnan.
