On the official road, a group of people galloped past in the rain, and the leader was Yin Lifeng.
After walking for more than an hour, the horse entered the Shenji Camp on the outskirts of Beijing. By this time, the sky had darkened.
When Bingwei saw that he was the British prince, he was overjoyed. The God of Wealth is here.
Yin Lifeng got off the horse, waved his hand, and Xiao Zhong behind him took out a banknote from his arms and stuffed it into it.
"Buying drinks for the brothers, where is your boss?"
"Hui Shizi, the boss is practicing swordsmanship in the back mountain."
Yin Lifeng frowned tightly, "It's raining and it's dark. Why do you practice swordsmanship?"
"My eldest son, you don't know, my boss always practices his sword on rainy days."
"Lead the way."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Shenji Camp is backed by mountains and water, and there are large bamboo forests at the foot of the back mountains. The leaves are rustling in the wind.
A man in gray clothes, holding a long sword, stood in the rain, motionless, only the rising and falling of his chest and his slightly thick breath showed that he had just performed an excellent swordsmanship.
When Yin Lifeng approached, he just saw him wiping the sword clean with a handkerchief and then putting it back into the scabbard.
Su Ziyu turned around, saw the person coming, and said with a frown: "Why are you here?"
Yin Lifeng smiled and said: "It's boring to stay in the capital, so I came to see my brother-in-law for a drink."
The Su and Yin families had been engaged for six years, and Yin Lifeng's call of brother-in-law was not too abrupt.
Su Ziyu glanced at him sideways and said to the guard, "Go and warm some pots of wine."
"No need to warm it, I want to drink it cold. Xiaozhong, go help me and make some exquisite dishes to go with the wine."
"Yes, the Crown Prince." Xiao Zhong thrust the umbrella into the Crown Prince's hand and followed the guards away.
When we climbed over the hill and entered the camp, it was already dark and the rain was getting heavier.
The food and wine had been put on the table, but Xiaozhong didn't dare to let the prince drink the cold wine. The wine was just right warm and exuded a rich fragrance, which made people greedy.
Yin Lifeng held the cup and touched it to Su Ziyu, "Brother-in-law, I respect you."
Su Ziyu is not stupid. This guy came here rashly and asked for a drink. He must be hiding something in his heart.
He didn't ask, just drank the wine silently, and poured himself another glass.
After several cups of food, I didn't even touch the food with my chopsticks. Xiao Zhong was worried about the prince's drinking capacity and gently advised, "Your Majesty, please eat some food first."
Yin Lifeng felt that he was too arrogant and said, "I don't want you to serve here anymore. Go down."
"This..." Xiaozhong didn't dare to leave.
"Go, I'm here." Su Ziyu said softly.
Xiaozhong then left with peace of mind.
Yin Lifeng put down the wine glass heavily and let out a long sigh. He moved his lips a few times but didn't say anything. He just drank glass after glass.
Seeing the way he was hesitant to speak, Su Ziyu knew that the wine was not enough, so she simply stayed with him silently.
Sure enough, when all four bottles of wine were gone, Yin Lifeng opened his mouth.
"Brother-in-law, I met someone today."
"Um."
Su Ziyu just put the wine cup to her lips.
"Do you still remember the day when the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo was full moon, a woman was framed?"
Su Ziyu frowned slightly, obviously not remembering much.
"The person I met today is her, the sixth young lady of the Gu family, Gu Qingwan."
is her? A figure appeared in Su Ziyu's mind, kneeling on the ground, with a hint of stubbornness on his small face.
Yin Lifeng's eyes went straight and he sighed: "Brother-in-law, she is also afraid of the rain getting the uppers of her shoes wet."
His hand trembled and a few drops of wine spilled out of the cup. Su Ziyu said calmly: "Most women in the world are like this."
"No, no, brother-in-law, she walks on tiptoes, exactly the same, really exactly the same."
As he drank more, Yin Lifeng became a little incoherent.
Su Ziyu felt something overflowing from her chest, but there was no expression on her handsome face.
Yin Lifeng raised his eyes and stared at him, "Brother-in-law, they are cousins."
"So what?" Su Ziyu finally spoke with a calm tone. She held the wine flask in her slender hand and filled the cup for him.
After finishing the drink, Yin Lifeng grabbed Su Zi's hand and said, "Brother-in-law, it's been six years, have you forgotten?"
Even his breath smelled of alcohol. Su Ziyu shook his head and said, "Xiao Feng, you are drunk, stop drinking."
"I'm not drunk."
Yin Lifeng raised his eyebrows, "You and she used to be so good, as if we were the same person. Even I was envious when I saw it. Brother-in-law, have you really forgotten?"
Su Ziyu's eyes darkened, his breathing became a little disordered, he drank two glasses of wine in a row, and said sternly: "Xiao Feng, you are drunk, don't talk nonsense."
A sneer appeared on the corner of Yin Lifeng's lips, "I'm not even allowed to speak, Su Ziyu, are you feeling guilty?"
Su Ziyu's face turned cold, and he suddenly stood up and walked away. Yin Lifeng grabbed his hand.
"Brother-in-law, I still remember her. Six years later, I still remember her."
Su Ziyu turned around, looked at him coldly, and gently pulled away his hand. He was already a few steps away, "That's your business."
The words that were so cold and heartless made Yin Lifeng furious. He overturned the wine table and staggered forward to catch up.
"Su Ziyu, why did you shoot that arrow? How could you kill her? She is such a good person, why... why did you shoot her to death?" Yin Lifeng was hysterical at the end of his sentence.
Su Ziyu had a sullen face and her tone was still neither high nor low, "Yin Lifeng, I'll say it again, you drank too much."
"I didn't drink too much. I'm soberer than ever. I'm really curious about what your heart is made of."
Yin Lifeng grabbed Su Ziyu's chest, pulled hard twice, and roared: "Is it a stone?"
A condensed smile spread on his lips, and with a slight lift of his hand, Su Ziyu had already retreated two feet away, and sneered: "You are really drunk."
Yin Lifeng took several steps back, but he was unwilling to let go and pursued him a few steps staggeringly.
"Su Ziyu...brother-in-law...don't leave...come back. I want to ask you something."
Without saying a word, Su Ziyu opened the curtain and strode away.
"Su Ziyu... come back here... don't leave... I want to question you... you are such a cold and heartless person... you are just a stone... a stinking stone."
"Third Master!" Xiao Zhong, who was standing outside, stepped forward tremblingly.
Su Ziyu looked at him with slender eyes, without any emotion, "The prince is drunk, please find someone to take him back to his house."
"Third Master, the prince is talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." Xiao Zhong said with determination.
"rest assured."
Su Ziyu gave a gentle smile that made people's hearts beat.
Xiao Zhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Su Sanye said don't worry, then this matter will definitely not be spread to the mansion.
"Commander Su." A voice suddenly sounded in the dark night.
Xiao Zhong was startled. I saw a tall man with a cold face walking over. It was Yang Rui, Mr. Su's deputy.
Mr. Su has five hundred personal guards around him. These five hundred personal guards are all selected from the Shenji Camp. They are all very skilled and are led by Yang Rui himself.
Xiao Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his fists towards the visitor, turned around and went into the tent to clean up the mess.
Seeing him leaving, Su Ziyu took two steps behind her back and said, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing's wrong, don't worry, come and have a look." Yang Rui said solemnly.
This Prince Yin likes to come to Commander Su for a drink whenever he encounters troubles. However, he has a very poor drinking capacity and gets drunk as soon as he drinks. It's really annoying to be drunk and make trouble.
It's really true that Commander Su has a good temper. If he were replaced, it doesn't matter if he is a brother-in-law or a brother-in-law, he should be taken out and given a good beating.
Su Ziyu raised his head and looked at the night sky, with a bitter smile on his lips, patted Yang Rui's shoulder twice, and walked into the night without saying a word.
Yang Rui's heart sank, and he followed immediately.
In the humble room.
Zhao Jingyan crossed her legs and held a piece of mung bean cake in her hand. She tasted it for a few times and threw it on the plate with disgust. She took another sip of warm tea and looked at her brother in front of her with a half-smile.
"Why are you so happy?" The man said in a calm voice as he looked at the lucky face.
Zhao Jingyan put down his legs knowingly, but the light in his eyes became even more intense, and he stretched out two fingers.
"The first happy event is that I have taken care of your brother, and everything about the bank is in order."
The man nodded.
This was to be expected, "Where's the second one?"
"The second happy event is that someone recommended me a person to be the general manager of the bank."
"who?"
"Shi Lei."
It's him? The man became interested and asked, "Who recommended it?"
Zhao Jingyan's deep gaze revealed a hint of a mocking smile in the dim candlelight, "Gu Liu, Gu Qingwan."
"Oh, tell me." The man saw that he was smiling but not smiling, knowing that there must be a story here.
Zhao Jingyan licked the corners of her mouth, shook her fan twice, and then started talking.
After half a cup of tea, Zhao Jingyan had a dry mouth and drank half the cup of tea, and said: "Brother, do you think there is such a coincidence in the world?"
The man gave a rare smile and said, "It's a coincidence. He will come to Beijing in a month. Then you can use my pen and ink to meet him."
"So, brother, do you agree?"
Tapping his index finger on the table twice, the man whispered: "I know all about his abilities. He is just implicated by me and has bad luck. Putting him on the bright side is too attractive, so it is better to put him in the dark." good."
"Brother and I want to be together. So I plan to use Hongwen as this person on the surface."
"pretty!"
The man's eyes showed approval, "Hongwen is a gambler by nature, so if you use him as a sword shield, others will just think it's just a joke between the two of you and won't get suspicious."
Zhao Jingyan raised her eyebrows proudly, as if she was asking for credit.
The man glanced at him, patted his shoulder with his big hand, and said calmly: "Be careful in everything."
Zhao Jingyan felt warm in her heart and said, "Brother, everything will be fine."
As soon as these words came out, the man's expression darkened, a sad look appeared on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "She... can't wait any longer."
"Brother?" Zhao Jingyan's heart skipped a beat, and her expression suddenly changed.
"She has been with me for more than ten years, taking care of the palace, taking care of my concubine, and raising my children. I thought I would give her a lifetime of glory, but who knew... she couldn't wait any longer."
Zhao Jingyan's chest froze, and she stretched out her hand to hold her brother's hand. She held it hard, her joints turned white, and her veins popped out.
The man said softly, "But I owe her."
"Brother, Gu Liu's medical skills are unparalleled. How about..."
"No need!" the man refused. "Why is this?" Zhao Jingyan asked in surprise.
