"
"Uh, oh!"
"His Royal Highness, you don't have to bend, you can send the people below..." Wei Chen was a little worried.
"General Wei, I must do this personally! This is a show of sincerity! Don't worry, don't you believe in Liang Zhao's skill? Besides, I will bring more guards!"
Wei Chen looked at Zi Li and sighed, before compromising for a long time: "Okay, but your Highness must be careful!"
"Ok!"
"Liang Zhao, the safety of your Highness is left to you!"
"Yes, the subordinates must fulfill their mission!" Liang Zhao knelt down on one knee and said firmly.
Volume Four, The Battle for Hegemony, Chapter 24, Mysterious Dreams
Knowing the news that Zili was going to Banzhou, An Jiqing immediately objected, and his attitude was very tough!
"General Wei." An Jiqing stared at Wei Chen. "I don't understand why you agree to such a frivolous and absurd decision! Isn't he a naive thought, even you are an inexperienced hairy boy?"
Wei Chen told him to speak with red ears, "Ahem. Jiqing, although His Royal Highness's suggestion of letting merchants fund the army is indeed a bit weird, it is not unreasonable if you think about it carefully..."
"It's not incredible, it's just fantastic." An Jiqing interrupted him, "and it's not a question of whether his ideas work, General Wei, sometimes I really don't know whether to say that you are loyal or dull! Do you think In this form, can he leave the heavy protection and expose him to the eyes of a group of obsessive enemies?".
"Uncle Emperor," Zili had to interrupt, "Although it is a dangerous move to go out in this tense situation, we have no better way to reverse the disadvantage of our army! Judging from the current situation, An Jin Luo is very likely to move his army south to eradicate our "rebel rebellious party" immediately after he takes the throne! Uncle Emperor, we only have 27 days to prepare!"
"... To say something bad," An Jiqing said in a rare tone, as an elder, and as a member of the Northern Spirit Royal Family, "If you encounter any unexpected events, they will What's the point of people doing so many things? Now you are not only representing yourself, your safety is related to the entire army, but also to Beiling's country!".
Zili looked at him and said, "Because I am no longer just myself, I have to do something for Beiling for the army instead of hiding under heavy protection and pointing at everyone! And I am not. Alone, Liang Zhao and guards will go with me, and there will be people in the barracks who will be easy to use to look like me, uncle emperor, if there is no accident, others will not find that I have left the camp!" Gradually, the attack seems to have been Incorporating into this role, has taken on the responsibility of this identity! Is such a change a good thing or a bad thing
An Jiqing was silent, and Zili immediately increased his weight when he saw his looseness, "Uncle Emperor, instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative to fight for more hope of survival, right?".
An Jiqing finally compromised, "Okay, but there is one condition, I will go with you!"
"No, Uncle Emperor, what should I do if you leave the military medical team?"
"Yeah, Jiqing, the newly recruited doctors are not familiar with many things. It will be difficult for them to operate if you are not here! Please believe your Highness, Your Highness has given us a lot of surprises during this period of time!" Wei Chen helped his shoulders to relax. Soundtrack.
An Jiqing immediately turned sideways and avoided his hand, ignoring the loss in Wei Chen's eyes and asked Zili, "Then when do you plan to leave?"
"Time is running out, just at noon today!" Zi Li replied.
An Jiqing nodded, then took out a bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Zili, "You take one pill a day for this medicine, which can prevent a hundred poisons!"
"Good!" Zi Li took it.
"Be careful of everything!"
"Ok, I will!"
Under the escort of Liang Zhao and eight guards selected by Wei Chen, Zili rushed to Banzhou non-stop. .
Banzhou is one of the most prosperous cities in the central region. It has a superior geographical location and is located at the intersection of rivers and rivers. It has convenient water and land transportation. Therefore, it quickly developed into the "first shopping mall" of Beiling with commercial trade.
Even in this turbulent situation, Banzhou City still hasn't changed its night by night, the bustling and bustling drunkenness.
Zili and his party, dressed as the most common silk merchants, entered Banzhou City and found an inn to live in, and immediately asked the guard Lian Qiao who was also accompanying him to investigate the mansion of the wealthy merchant Gu Shijian in Banzhou! Then he came to visit and asked Jiading to tell him that he was interested in buying a batch of high-quality "Xiangyun Sha".
Jia Ding led Zili and Liang Zhao into the living room to take a seat, and soon someone was seen coming in. He was a man in brocade clothes, with dark skin but profound features, but sharp. The look in his eyes and the slightly pursed lips can tell that he is definitely not an idler. .
In the Beiling King's letter and Lian Qiao's report, Gu Shijian had been in his sixties and was very different from the person in front of him, so who is this person
Seeing Zi Li's doubts, he explained indifferently to the man: "My father is ill and unable to see guests. Under Gu Ming, I will be in charge of business for my father for the time being!"
"Disrespect and disrespect! Young Master Gu, whose surname is Su in Xia, is mainly engaged in the silk and satin business. He heard that the Gujia Silk Store is the most famous in Banzhou City, so he specially came to Guizhuang to purchase!"
"Boss Su wants to ring the cloud yarn?" Gu Ming asked, looking at the ordinary Zili.
"Yes!"
"How much do you want?"
"One hundred horses!"
A flash of light flashed in Gu Ming's eyes, "The making of ringing cloud yarn is cumbersome and requires 14 procedures. It takes 15 or 6 days to complete. It needs to use the sap of the unique plant Dioscorea vulgaris and soak it in strong sunlight. Thirty or forty times. Because it is difficult to make, it is expensive. Except for the relatives and relatives of the emperor, few people usually buy it. Generally, cloth houses will not reserve inventory, and winter is not a good time to make ring-shaped yarn. You also make silk and satin. The business doesn't even understand this, right? But your Excellency has asked for a hundred horses. This makes Xia Xia very doubtful of your sincerity in doing business!"
"Gu Gongzi thinks I am deliberately making things difficult?"
"Is not it?"
"That's really wrong!" Zili spread his hands innocently, pretending to say unintentionally: "You don't have it in Guizhuang, but it doesn't mean that your big boss doesn't have one! Can you let me have an interview with your big boss?"
Gu Ming's eyes were sharp, "It seems that your Excellency knows a lot!"
"Where is it!" Zi Li smiled with her eyes bent.
Looking at each other for a long time, Gu Ming's tense face suddenly eased, "Your Excellency, follow me!"
Zi Li and Liang Zhao met their sights. There was a burst of joy in my heart. I didn't expect to see the big boss behind the scenes so soon. It seems that the idea of the Beiling King's letter has worked!
Liang Zhao led them to the inner courtyard, bypassing several promenades and rockery arches, and finally came to a beautifully decorated but not solemn courtyard.
Gu Ming stopped Liang Zhao, who was about to follow him, and said, "The master has ordered that only Boss Su is allowed to enter!" Hearing this tone, it seemed as if the other party had already guessed that they would come! This greatly aroused Zi Li's curiosity. She was a bit timid, and now she can't wait to see who the big boss is behind the scenes! I don't know how he feels Xi_ng. If he speaks and pays attention to the overall situation, maybe he can quickly tell him to pay for the army!
"Young Master..." Liang Zhao frowned, and asked His Highness to leave his sight? This is impossible!
Hearing the words, Zi Li turned around and waved at him: "You are here and waiting for anything, I will call you!"
Liang Zhao looked at Gu Ming who was resolutely blocking him, and thought: Looking at this person, if they want to be disadvantageous to His Highness, they also have a bargaining chip to negotiate! Thinking about this, he could only nodded his head reluctantly and said: "If you find something wrong, you must yell immediately!"
Gu Ming curled his lips when he heard the words and said, "What's wrong? You are worried! We are discussing business, not making money and killing you!"
Zili pushed open the concealed door. From the outside, it was just an exquisite room. Who would have known that it was so spacious and gorgeously decorated when he opened the door! Black Dali floor tiles, extremely elegant tables and chairs in dark colors, the one that is visible at first glance is covered with black felt
