Ah Jing dragged one person with one hand, turned around and opened the door, and then threw the two of them out with a bang!
Everyone was stunned, unable to speak for a long time. You know, this is the second floor, and downstairs is a clear lake.
Sure enough, in an instant, the sound of heavy objects falling into the water sounded, two booms, one before and one behind.
Ah Jing walked back and stood behind Yan Xun, even Feng Mian stood up, acting like a follower.
Yan Xun's face was completely devoid of evil, and he raised his head with a light smile, as if he wasn't responsible for what happened just now, and said in a calm tone: "Sorry, everyone, the horses and horses are exhausted, I was a little emotional just now."
The stillness like stagnant water spread, the old men who were usually domineering and always staring at the sky lost their minds, and stared at Yan Xun stupidly, as if he was a visitor from outside the sky.
"Now, who among the guards knows how to swim?" Yan Xun smiled peacefully, with a gentle and calm attitude that he had experienced over the years. Such an expression would definitely make people feel like a spring breeze on weekdays, but at this moment, in the eyes of these people, this kind of gentleness is like a hellish wind.
"Because I think that if no one goes to catch them, they will really be drowned." Yan Xun leaned back in the chair and shook his head in embarrassment, "What a coincidence, we didn't pay attention when we came here. Down there is a pool of water."
As soon as the words fell, everyone reacted immediately, the old men jumped up on the spot, hurriedly looking for someone to go to the lake to save them, and the hall was in a panic.
After working hard for a long time, they rescued Elder Yu, who was full of water and disfigured. By the time everyone wiped the cold sweat off their foreheads and returned to their seats, Yan Xun had already finished eating.
"Fourth Master Feng, who is this friend of yours? Since you are also a brother in the meeting, why don't you understand any rules?" The old man in red said in a deep voice. This old man's surname is Liu, and he is the chief figure of the Great Trade Association in Xianyang City. He has been rooted in Xianyang for more than forty years, and his family business is huge. Even Mr. Wu, Miss Yu and others have to act according to his face. Soldiers always need money and food when fighting a war, and this Elder Liu is basically the money and food manager of Datong.
Yan Xun said with a calm tone and unchanged expression: "Everyone, I wanted to introduce myself just now, but Elder Yu was too impatient. I think it is necessary for me to introduce myself to everyone now."
The lights were flickering, silk and bamboo were melodious, Yan Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "I am Yan Xun, I just came from Yanbei, please give me your advice."
"King Yanbei?"
Elder Liu stood up abruptly, with such force that he overturned the teapot in front of him, and the tea spilled all over his robe. He still didn't feel the slightest bit, but stared at Yan Xun with wide eyes in disbelief.
"To be precise, although Yanbei has become independent, I haven't officially become the king yet, but I don't object to Elder Liu calling it that way in advance."
"How is it possible?" An old man said in surprise, "How did people from Yanbei come to Xianyang?"
Yan Xun smiled, "Elder Xi, of course you don't want me to come, because you are going to buy your family wealth and transfer it to Bian Tang soon, if I come, wouldn't your dreams come to naught?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!
Everyone looked at Yan Xun in horror, their faces were ashen, and they didn't dare to breathe.
The smile on Yan Xun's face subsided little by little, and he said slowly: "Big Xia is resurgent, and will move back to Zhenhuang soon, Zhao Yang sent out troops everywhere, the soldiers are fierce, Zhao Che sits in Zhenhuang, and coordinates the troops of the whole country. The battle between Yanbei and Daxia is imminent, but the Great Peer Association is no longer optimistic about Yanbei at this time, so you guys are going to retreat to Biantang to save your lives, right?"
"Yan... Prince Yan," Elder Liu reluctantly said, "This is just a decision from above, just in case, it is the arrangement of the leader. Our grand peer association has been born and died for Yan Bei for many years, and has long been completely separated from Yan Bei in terms of political power. Unified, in order to rescue you this time, countless members were killed or injured, and now, it is just a strategic plan, for the purpose of preserving strength."
Yan Xun stared at the crowd coldly, and said slowly: "For eight years, Datong has used my name to coordinate Yanbei, make plans for me, and settle Yanbei's people's livelihood. I don't want to thank you for this kindness. For this, Yan Xun Don’t dare or forget! But,” Yan Xun’s face suddenly turned cold, his narrow eyes slowly narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, “In my name, you have collected Yanbei’s taxes and finances and opened up the Baiyu Pass. In the first half of the year, just before I returned to Yanbei, you took advantage of the sudden death of officials in the imperial capital and collected taxes for ten years in a row, and the people of Yanbei Now, seeing that Yanbei is about to start a war with the imperial court, you are going away like this, leaving behind a devastated Yanbei, where do you want Yanbei to go?" After saying this, Yan Xun suddenly smiled relievedly, and said lightly, "Datong's The soldiers of the Young and Strong faction fought bloody battles on the front line, but you are here to taste the delicacies of the mountains and seas, don’t you feel uneasy about your conscience? I heard that Feng Mian has some information, I wonder if Miss Yu will let you go if it is released?”
When everyone heard it, their faces turned ashen. Among the young people of the current big guild, although Wu Daoya has the highest reputation, but in terms of skills, Miss Yu is definitely the number one. This young woman's ruthless attack, her extreme hatred for evil forces is simply incomparable. If they let her know, what kind of situation it will be, they really can't imagine.
"Well, Shizi Yan, the old man thinks that Dao Ya and A Yu should not be allowed to know about this matter."
"Of course," Yan Xun said with a smile, "Elder Liu, we are on the same ground. There is still a long way to go. Battles will be fought one after another. The city walls of Daxia will collapse inch by inch. We all need A strong army also needs a harmonious regime on the outside. Therefore, some things should not be explained too clearly, so that they can have full confidence in Datong."
"That's that."
"Since this is the case, you should know what to do."
Elder Liu asked tentatively: "Then we can safely wait for the news of Yanbei's great victory in Xianyang City?"
"No need," Yan Xun shook his head, "you can continue to send property to Bian Tang."
Everyone stared at him in disbelief.
But Yan Xun smiled slightly and said: "It happens that I also want to go to Biantang. After that, I will return to Yanbei by the way from Nanjiang. I will take these things back by the way."
The faces of Elder Liu and the others suddenly became ugly, Yan Xun stood up, and said lightly: "Okay, I have eaten and said my words, and I should leave. Elder Liu, I am going to Bian this time. Go to Tang, in the capacity of your nephew Liu Xi, I hope you can make preparations tomorrow morning. After all, Prince Bian Tang is getting married, and you are the number one richest businessman in Xianyang, so you need to show something." Yan Xun Slightly cupping his hands to the white-faced old man in a room full of dreams, "Farewell!"
It was already very late when the carriage was walking on the street, but the street was still bustling.
Feng Mian asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty, these old guys have extraordinary wealth. It is too dangerous for you to go to Bian Tang with these things. Why don't you just return to Yanbei?"
"Do you think it's not dangerous to go directly back to Yanbei with these things?" Yan Xun asked indifferently, "Big Xia's political power is unstable now, and from now on all the way back to Yanbei, passing through many provinces and counties, there is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes. "Yan Xun leaned on the carriage, sighed slightly, half-closed his eyes, and said slowly, "I don't want this money to fall into the hands of the government, and I don't want to be pocketed by these old men, so I can only go through Bian Tang. This road. The law and order in Biantang is relatively good, and I defected to Biantang on behalf of rich businessmen from Xianyang. In order to develop the country's economy, Biantang will definitely send heavy troops to accompany the escort. In this way, it must be a long way to Tangjing. It's safe. And as long as I get to Tangjing, I will have a way to sneak into the southern border without anyone noticing, and then go up the river and return to Yanbei, and it will come naturally."
"However," Feng Mian said worriedly, "Tang Jing must have gathered a lot of dignitaries, and most of them know you. If you pretend to be Elder Liu's nephew, can you get away with it?"
"Don't worry about this, I have my own solution." Yan Xun said, "In order to prevent the news from leaking, after I leave, these elders, you have to be careful and find a way to make them never speak. , get rid of your worries."
Feng Mian was stunned for a moment and didn't reply.
Yan Xun still had that calm expression on his face, and said slowly: "With you here, I feel relieved. The southeast money and food steward of the Datong Guild should be replaced. Feng Mian, although you are young, you should come out." Practice well."
Feng Mian hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Your servant obeys!"
Yan Xun seemed to be falling asleep, and his voice became more and more ethereal, "People's hearts are not enough, these elders, when they were young, were passionate members of Datong, but they got more things, so they became greedy and wanted to make money. Occupy things that don’t belong to you, but don’t measure your own ability. People can have ambitions in the world, but they can’t be greedy. Ambition can help you achieve great things, but greed will make you never reborn. Fengmian, your body If you are in a superior position, you have to think carefully about my words."
Feng Mian's face gradually turned pale, he bowed his head respectfully, without saying a word.
The wind blew in along the curtains of the carriage, and under the shadow of the lights on both sides, Yan Xun's face suddenly became dim, making it difficult to see clearly.
Feng Mian felt chills down his spine, and suddenly remembered a sentence Chu Qiao said when he left two years ago: "You are loyal, cautious, smart, and bold, Feng Mian, everything is fine with you, the only bad thing is that you are too capable. .”
He has never believed it, and has never carefully considered the meaning of these words.
But at this moment, looking at his master, he suddenly understood. He cautiously picked up a cloak on the side, and put it on Yan Xun, knowing that he was not asleep, but still cautiously did not dare to make a sound.
The carriage was moving forward slowly, and there were many people on the street, which was very crowded. Feng Mian was suddenly distracted, he hoped that His Highness's business would be safe and smooth, and that the girl could return to His Highness as soon as possible.
In this world, the only person His Highness doesn't care about is the girl.
The summer night breeze was slightly drunk, and on this night, Yanbei's soldiers changed into Xianyang's clothes and horses from inside to outside. On the second day, under the escort of Liu Mingjun, a major food merchant in Xianyang City, he left Xianyang City in a mighty way, went south by water, and headed towards Tangjing.
