Zhao Zaifu guessed that it might not be good for Huayan to find Cheng Zixiao, but he couldn't guess what she would do with Cheng Zixiao. After all, he has never dealt with Huayan before, he only knows that she is not easy to get along with and has deep thoughts, otherwise, he would not let His Royal Highness love her so much that she would not marry.

He looked at Cheng Zi and smiled, "He can't ask you to be charming."

Cheng Zi laughed loudly, "Zaifu's conjecture is too outrageous. There is Tianbujue around her, and Tianbujue can cure even the medicine of charm. She doesn't need to be charming."

Zhao Zaifu asked, "Don't be a fool, what did she want from you?"

Cheng Zi laughed, "Since Zaifu can't figure it out, let me tell you that the Crown Princess wants to make a deal with me."

Zhao Zaifu frowned, "What business?"

Cheng Zi laughed, "The Huaihe Salt Road."

Zhao Zaifu's heart trembled, "Is it she who wants to intervene in the Huaihe Salt Road, or the East Palace wants to rectify the Huaihe Salt Road, or the Lin'an Huajia wants the Huaihe Salt Road?"

Cheng Zi smiled and shook his head, "The Crown Princess didn't say a word about the East Palace."

Zhao Zaifu thought for a moment, "You agreed."

Cheng Zi smiled and shrugged, "I have no reason not to agree. The Crown Princess is more generous than Zaifu. She will give me 30% of the Huaihe Salt Road."

Zhao Zaifu's complexion changed slightly, he stared at Cheng Zi and smiled, "San Chengli is not a joke."

"Yes, Sanchengli is not a joke." Cheng Zixiao said honestly, "Therefore, I have no reason to refuse."

Zhao Zaifu frowned, "Then why do you think the Crown Princess can give you 30% of the profit of the Huaihe Salt Road, and the principal and assistant dare not give you so much?"

Cheng Zi smiled and pondered, "Maybe there is His Highness the Crown Prince as the backstage, right? The Huaihe Salt Road is an important place. Without His Royal Highness, even the Crown Princess and Lin'an Huayan would not be able to attack the Huaihe Salt Road so blatantly."

Zhao Zaifu thought for a while, then nodded, "Yes, you are right."

Cheng Zixiao took a sip of his tea, and when he covered it with his sleeves, he carefully looked at Zhao Zaifu's expression, and saw that he was sickly worried and anxious, and smiled inwardly.

Naturally, he couldn't tell the Crown Princess Zhao Zaifu to exchange 30% of the Huaihe Salt Road's profit for all his operations in the Northland. Obviously, although the Huaihe Salt Road is an important place, the Crown Princess doesn't care about it. Her goal is the Northland.

As for what it is from the Northland, his meridians are all over the Northland, so it's hard to say for a while.

But there is one thing, he can vaguely guess that His Royal Highness's wind direction and eyes are fixed on Beidi, and there will be actions against Beidi in the future, and I'm afraid the time is not far away.

In recent years, the imperial court has been very lenient towards the Northland. Although the Northland is not a mess, it is also very impetuous. His Royal Highness has regained the Southwest Territory. Compared with the Northland without the Southwest Territory, it has become the most important rectification of the court. place.

He is gifted in business, so, over the years, he has also developed a keen intuition, which is almost inseparable.

Zhao Zaifu pondered for a while, and felt that it must have been Yunchi's instruction, otherwise Huayan would not dare to be so blatant even with the backing of Lin'an Huajia. Yushitai impeachment.

In other words, Yun Chi was about to use Cheng Zi to laugh.

As for what to use him for, he couldn't figure out the intention at the moment, he said to Cheng Zi, "I didn't expect Benfu to fall because of her charm, but your luck has come."

Cheng Zi smiled lightly, "I will never forget Zaifu's kindness in nurturing me."

Zhao Zaifu heard Cheng Zixiao's words, felt better, and said, "You can be regarded as my disciple. Since His Royal Highness wants to use you, don't make any wrong thoughts. Do whatever His Highness asks you to do, our Prince Your Highness, it's amazing, in his eyes, sand is sand, and mud is mud."

Cheng Zi smiled and nodded, "Zaifu don't worry."

Zhao Zaifu said "Yes", "You are a smart person."

Zhao Zaifu chatted some gossip with Cheng Zixiao again, then waved to him, and Cheng Zixiao left.

As soon as Cheng Zixiao left, Mrs. Zhao came in and said to Zhao Zaifu, "Master, why have you never mentioned to me that Mr. Cheng Qi from Beidi is a good-looking talent."

Zhao Zaifu gave a "hmm" and looked at Mrs. Zhao, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Zhao said, "I think he is very good-looking. Although he is a concubine in the family, he is also an official. The master has cultivated him for many years. He must be grateful to the master. If it is Xi'er"

Zhao Zaifu collected his expression, frowned and said, "You mean, you want to marry Xi'er to him?"

Mrs. Zhao said, "My concubine just met him. I have this idea. Do you think it's feasible?"

Zhao Zaifu shook his head, "Impossible, how can our daughter marry a concubine? Besides, in his eyes, nothing but food is money. Although this person is young, he is bold, treacherous, cunning, and unpredictable.

Not a good husband-in-law. Although Xi'er is clever, she may not be able to control such a person. "

Mrs. Zhao was a little disappointed, "That's all."

Zhao Zaifu nodded, "Don't worry, there is always a suitable person."

Mrs. Zhao was in a hurry and had no choice but to agree.

Huayan fell asleep, Yunchi hadn't returned to the East Palace yet, she got up, and saw that it was still early, she had a short sleep this time, got out of bed, opened the window, Caiqing heard the movement, came in to make Huayan With a pot of tea, he said crisply, "The Seventh Princess is here, and the painting hall is waiting to see you."

Huayan was startled, thinking of the seventh princess, Yun Qilai, the emperor had many children, but the only ones he had seen were the fifth prince, the eleventh prince, and the seventh princess. Two days ago, she went to the palace and met with the emperor and the queen mother, but she didn't see any of them. She forgot about it. She didn't want the Seventh Princess to come here today.

She smiled and said, "I'll go out and meet her now."

Cai Qing nodded.

Huayan walked out of the room and came to the painting hall, and saw the seventh princess lying on the table, looking quite bored and sleepy. Seeing her coming, she immediately straightened up, looked at her with wide eyes, and then stood up abruptly , shouted, "Sister-in-law Fourth."

Hua Yan gave her a funny look, she probably didn't take a nap in the afternoon, and now she doesn't look very energetic, obviously she was waiting for her for a long time before she was bored and almost dozed off. She nodded with a smile, looked her up and down, "How thin?"

The seventh princess pouted, "I think the fourth sister-in-law is really thin, much thinner than me."

Huayan laughed.

The Seventh Princess approached her, "Sister-in-law Si, it's hot, why don't you get hot when you're so tightly wrapped?"

Huayan smiled and said, "It's not hot, I've been chilling lately."

Seventh Princess said "Oh".

Hua Yan looked at her, saw that she seemed to have something to say, but she hesitated, she smiled and said, "It seems that you are not all here to see me, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

The Seventh Princess blushed, "I miss Sisao, I heard that you and Sige are doing very well, so I naturally came to see you." After finishing speaking, she said in a low voice, "I heard that Lu Shizi and Sisao are married today. You eight worshiped and became a brother and sister of the opposite sex, I want to ask you about that, how is he doing in the southwest now?"

Huayan smiled, it seemed that the Seventh Princess still had feelings for Lu Zhiling, she said, "He is fine."

Princess Seven bit her lips, "I still like him."

Huayan nodded, "I see."

The Seventh Princess' voice was even lower, "I have liked him for many years, and he is not in the capital now, so I still like him tightly, but he doesn't like me, Sisao, can you help me now that he is away, I don't know what to do good"

Huayan pondered for a while, then shook her head, "No one else can help you with emotional matters. Although he is my sworn brother, I can't help you with anything. No one can force you to like it or not."

Seventh Princess's face suddenly collapsed, "When he was in the capital, I could still find a way to chase him, but now he is not in the capital, so far away, I really can't do anything."

Huayan sighed, "When he was in the capital, he avoided you everywhere, but now he is not in the capital, you have nothing to do, and I can't help."

Seventh Princess looked at Huayan pleadingly, "Fourth Sister-in-law"

Huayan had a headache, and looked at the Seventh Princess, "You must be Lu Zhiling? When I was young, I fell in love with someone, often with dreams and beautification. Lu Zhiling may not be as good as you imagined. Besides, I have searched for him before, and he doesn't seem to want to do it." Son-in-law, besides, Duke Jing and his wife may not be happy with him as a princess, you must know that since ancient times, son-in-law has no real power, and now he is stationed in the southwestern region with millions of soldiers, and His Highness the Crown Prince values him very much."

The Seventh Princess pursed her lips tightly and fell silent for a moment.

Huayan poured her a cup of tea with her own hands.

The seventh princess didn't drink, she was silent for a moment, and said to Huayan with red eyes, "Sisao, you told me earlier that you like Su Zizhan, since you like him, why didn't you fight to the end, and now you agree to marry my fourth brother?" Woolen cloth"

Huayan smiled, "When I was in the southwest region, something happened, and I found that His Royal Highness is very nice."

Seventh Princess looked at her puzzled, "Because my fourth brother is very good, did you give up on Su Zizhan?"

"It's not all because of this." Huayan shook her head, and smiled again, "His Royal Highness and I are destined to be destined, but we are destined to be killed. Fate is a very wonderful thing. There are many forks in the same road. , When I was in the southwest, I found that Zizhan was the fork in the road that I could not walk, and His Royal Highness was the straight line that I could walk. Love and love, the fate between people, is not something you blindly pursue .”
