It was not only Chu Lian who was confused by Emperor Taiping's "magic hand", but also He Changdi.
At this time, He Changdi was in the study of Prince Jin's Mansion.
The two looked at each other in blank dismay, becoming more and more unable to understand what Emperor Taiping was thinking. Could it be that Emperor Taiping wanted to rebuild the British government
Impossible, just a gift of marriage can't represent anything at all, besides, there are no usable direct descendants in the British government. Just now Tang Yan spread the news that it was Chu Lian's own father, the second master of the British government. Office was dismissed.
King Jin's blue eyes were full of doubts, could it be that his scheming father is full
Using the second house of the British government for fun? A slap and a sweet date? But this jujube is not sweet...
Even He Changdi, who lived a new life, didn't know the intention of Emperor Taiping to do this.
After a moment of silence, King Jin spoke first, "A Di, our money is in short supply."
Now even with the full support of the Sima family, but to cultivate power, they still have to secretly compete with the Sixth Prince's people. There are too many places to spend money, even King Jin and He Changdi can't afford it.
In fact, it is easy to get money in the open, and they have status, so they don't have to worry about the wealthy merchants who don't come to their door
But now is a special time, everything cannot be exposed, and there are even some things that the less people know, the better.
He Changdi's cold face became more and more harsh.
"Ayi, I'll think of a way."
He Changdi's phoenix eyes are deep, originally according to his plan, with that silver mine, all their things can be done, but the silver mine unexpectedly went wrong!
"I will send someone to investigate again." Jin Wang said and handed a letter to He Changdi beside him.
"Sent by the Black Feather Army."
There is nothing to avoid with King Jin, He Changdi quickly opened the letter, glanced at the contents of the letter, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "Xiao Wujing is really omnipotent, a person like Wei Fengzi can be fooled by him control!"
"Adi, we need to remind father. I think Xiao Bojian has bad intentions." Jin Wang was a little worried.
Wei Fengzi is the younger sister of Concubine Wei Gui, born in the same mother's womb, and she is the wife of Kong Shangshu.
This has to be thought-provoking.
He Changdi looked at the slightly dark sky outside the window, it was obviously getting late.
"Ayi, it's too late, I have to go back."
With that said, He Changdi had already stood up, and walked towards the door of the room with his legs open.
King Jin snorted lightly, and said sourly: "It's not that Jin Yi is pregnant, look at you, I think you can't wait to stay by her side for twelve hours, you don't get bored, even Jin Yi does." bother."
He Sanlang, who used to have a stiff and handsome face, had a soft expression, evoking a warm smile. He did not hide from his friend that Chu Lian was pregnant.
"What? Ayi is jealous? Let General Sima give birth to you."
Jin Wang, who was originally high-spirited and cold and arrogant, suddenly had a blush on his slightly pale cheeks because of this friend's ridicule, and because of staying up late.
The wedding date of Sister Yuan and King Shoujun is set in two months.
After the imperial decree granted the marriage, the British government began to contact the Yongkang Palace to discuss the pre-marriage procedures.
After this lively event ended, the entire city of Shengjing seemed to calm down in an instant, and the next month or so went smoothly, and Chu Lian's restaurant on Zhuque Street also opened.
The name of this new restaurant was given by Chu Lian, and it is called "Dejufeng". Like the original Guilinju, it is also divided into front and back yards, except that there is an extra floor on the facade of the three-story building in the front yard. Private room.
There is a small stage on the side of the lobby on the first floor. Dejufeng has cooperated with Liyuan. Every day at noon and afternoon tea, there will be actors from Liyuan to sing.
As for what to sing, the shopkeeper will decide in advance, or let the customers who come to eat pay their own money.
The opening of Dejufeng this time is not as ostentatious as it was in Guilinju.
On the opening day, only two hanging firecrackers were set off in front of the door, and gifts were given to the neighbor shops on the left and right, and then they opened for business.
Originally opened in such a low-key way, when looking around at how this rather mysterious Dejufeng restaurant will end so badly, after a while, carriages stopped at the gate of Dejufeng, and those eyes in the dark couldn't believe it stared wide.
The person who was observing in the dark was Shopkeeper Wang, who was diagonally opposite Men De'an Building.
Shopkeeper Wang stood in the private room on the second floor of his restaurant, surrounded by the old accountant who had been with him for many years.
Shopkeeper Wang stood in front of the half-open window with his hands behind his back and squinted his eyes. "What is the origin of Dejufeng? I heard that the shop opposite Lao Lin was taken over by a nobleman earlier. When I asked Lao Lin, that old guy kept his mouth shut and refused to say anything."
The old accountant's eyes fell on De Jufeng's door.
The newly opened restaurant on the opposite side looks the same as before. It looks like it just changed a door plaque, and there is nothing beside it.
At the beginning, it was the trend brought about by the opening of Guilinju. Nowadays, as long as any store with some background and some money opens, at least it needs to find a lion dance team to dance and have a lot of fun.
Attract all the people around, and spread the reputation of your shop early.
This virtue Jufeng is good, not only does it not make a publicity with drums and gongs, but it is low-key and outrageous.
Shopkeeper Wang is quite old and has experienced many ups and downs. Hearing the words, he expressed his feelings, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Old Zhao, you have good eyes. Can you see who owns those carriages?"
In fact, shopkeeper Wang is just asking casually. Although he is presbyopic, he can still see clearly what kind of carriages are there. Just a boring question.
The old accountant probably thought so in advance, but when he saw the person who was being helped down from the carriage from a distance, he almost fainted from fright.
He hurriedly supported the table next to him, covering his chest with one hand, his expression excited and terrified.
Shopkeeper Wang was taken aback, quickly supported him, and frowned, "Old Zhao, what's wrong with you, you weren't well just now, why are you looking so ugly now?"
The old accountant shook his hand. This old accountant surnamed Zhao is good at keeping accounts, and he also has a unique skill, which is his photographic memory.
Basically, people who have seen it once can recall it when they see it again.
One time, when you came out of the account room of the De'an Building, you accidentally heard the conversation of the current Emperor Taiping in the private room. He ran away on the spot in fright. It was this glance that made him remember the appearance of Emperor Taiping.
De'anlou Dim Sum is considered a must in Shengjing City. It is not surprising that Taiping Emperor Bailongyu serves to taste it.
After recovering from his breath, he looked at the shopkeeper Wang beside him with a cry and a smile. After a while, he whispered in his ear: "Shopkeeper, the one who got off the carriage just now is..."
The old accountant first pointed his index finger up to the sky, then gave a thumbs up and swallowed nervously.
Shopkeeper Wang was taken aback for a moment, then stared wide-eyed uncertainly. He pinched the old accountant's shoulder, "Are you... sure you read it right?"
The old accountant smiled wryly and shook his head, "Shopkeeper, it's not that you don't know my ability, how could you recognize the wrong person."
Hearing that the old accountant was so sure, the two old guys shrank their necks at the same time, and they were even more in awe of De Jufeng.
That's right, when Dejufeng opened, Emperor Taiping secretly came to support it!
Because Chu Lian was raising a baby in the mansion, she didn't know about it immediately that day, but He Changdi told her later.
She couldn't help but laugh, Emperor Taiping gave her too much face, she opened a restaurant in private, and Emperor Taiping would personally support her in disguise!
Even if the boss came, even if the officials in the court wanted to flatter Emperor Taiping, there would be a large number of customers, so there was no need to worry about whether anyone came to eat.
Emperor Taiping is the movable type signboard.
What's more, the food in Dejufeng is better than that of Guilinju which closed a few months ago. Anyone who has eaten in Guilinju knows it well.
There is no need to guess the behind-the-scenes boss of De Jufeng, none other than Mrs. Anyuanhou.
Chu Lian handed over Dejufeng to Zhou Wen, whom He Changdi had arranged for her, and handed over Jianshi in the northern border to Qin.
Invisibly, Jian City has expanded to more than ten times its original size. Listening to the dictation of Brother Muren who came back from the northern border, even Chu Lian couldn't believe it.
Muren and Na Risong speak Mandarin Chinese very fluently now, if you don't look at their faces but listen to their voices, you will never guess that they are barbarians.
On that day, Brother Muren and Song worked alongside Guanshi Qin and were responsible for managing Jianshi. Liangzhou was not only a foreign trade market for the Wu Dynasty and the barbarians, but also attracted businessmen from neighboring small countries. There is one more business path!
Liangzhou City was not as empty as it was three or four months ago when Chu Lian left.
Although the current Liangzhou City is still a simple border town, people come and go, and the level of excitement is not inferior to Su City.
Originally, Wu Lihan wanted to stay with Chu Lian to take care of her, but Chu Lian did not agree.
She knew that Ulihan was reluctant to part with her two sons, and in fact she didn't want to be separated from them at all, so she asked her to stay with them and take care of their daily life.
At the beginning of June, Shengjing City has entered the scorching summer.
Muren and his younger brother Na Risong rushed back to Shengjing from Liangzhou for the second time.
The two brothers had to report to Chu Lian on many business matters.
The two thin brothers that Chu Lian saw for the first time had already changed drastically.
Especially Muren.
The outlines of the barbarians were originally different from those of the people of the Great Wu Dynasty.
