If Shuiyunjian is closed for a day, all that money will be wasted!
No matter how big the family is, Prince Qi cannot afford such squandering!
In fact, it can withstand...
But Zhao Yan would never admit it.
He immediately walked angrily between the two of them and covered the wine bottles in their hands with one hand.
"Who caused this trouble for me! Why should you close the door properly!"
"Ah, the rich man is back!"
Zhao Min turned his head drunkenly, with a smile on his face, and staggered towards his arms.
It looked like he had drunk too much, and he couldn't even stand still.
Zhao Yan reached out his hand to push her down on the seat angrily, but when he raised his hand, the wine bottle was snatched away again.
"Drink! After drinking this bottle of wine, if you abandon my business, I won't care about you anymore!"
"Hey... don't talk nonsense. You obviously left on your own first. I couldn't find you even if I looked for you."
Anyway, Zhao Min didn't catch the scene, so Zhao Yan would not admit that this was indeed his plan.
"Hmph, you just went to fight without saying a word, and didn't even tell me how to evacuate after it was over. If you didn't want to leave me, what else could you do?"
Zhao Min was not stupid at all. She squinted her eyes and suddenly brought her pretty face just a few inches away from Zhao Yan, so close that both of them could feel each other's warm breath.
"Bad man... If this princess wasn't smart, how could I have caught you here!"
She breathed out like blue. Although she drank a lot of alcohol, she didn't smell much alcohol.
"...You drank too much. Go to bed. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Zhao Yan moved his head back, a little afraid that he might not be able to resist the impulse and bite those beautiful red lips.
Mingming has reached a consensus before that this marriage cannot be concluded...
If you take advantage now, how will you be able to settle the matter in the future?
At least explain...
No explanation, this girl is like a mirror in her mind.
Although he looked a little stupid and harmless when he was in Qixia Town, outside, he did have the cleverness of a royal princess.
He had never thought that he would meet Zhao Min here.
"I didn't drink too much, Princess! Cuiyu, two more bottles of wine!"
Zhao Min stared blankly, waving his little hands and shouting loudly.
This is already treating Shui Yunjian as his own.
"Hey, here we come!"
Cuiyu's voice of agreement came from the back kitchen. After a while, Cuiyu, who was wearing an apron and dressed like a cook, came out from behind the curtain carrying two pots of Maotai.
"My lord! You are back!"
Seeing Zhao Yan, Cuiyu walked quickly to the table very happily.
"The princess said you would arrive today, and sure enough you are back!"
"Um,...wait! What did you call her??"
Zhao Yang just nodded twice, then suddenly opened his eyes and said in shock.
"Princess... Princess Shaomin of Ruyang Palace, isn't she our princess?"
Cuiyu was also confused.
This "secret" is an obvious "secret" in Prince Qi's Mansion and in the organizations under Xiaoyulou.
Although the royal family of the Song Dynasty did not reveal too much about this news, there was no way it could be hidden from them.
"Nonsense, it's just a private verbal agreement between the emperor brother and King Ruyang, how can he become a princess!"
"Oh, it's only a matter of time!"
Before Cuiyu could answer, Zhao Min took his hand calmly and said.
"Sit down, no matter whether you become a princess or not, let's have a drink with my brother Xiaofeng today!"
Xiaofeng?
brother?
Zhao Yan looked confused at Lu Xiaofeng, who was sitting on the side, and the latter waved awkwardly.
"It's a long story..."
"It goes without saying, just go to bed after drinking enough!"
Zhao Yan rolled his eyes in disgust and sent him to rest.
"okay!"
Lu Xiaofeng also looked like he had this intention, and immediately retreated after hearing this.
After drinking for a long time, he was not very drunk, but he was already sleepy.
"Tell me what's going on."
As soon as Lu Xiaofeng left, Zhao Yan looked at Cuiyu again.
There's always someone who can explain it all.
"Just... the hero just now was drinking in the store today and encountered someone making trouble..."
He was a reliable person, and Cuiyu explained everything clearly to Zhao Yan in just a few words.
It turned out that after Lu Xiaofeng and Li Qinglian separated, they went to Yulin City first.
Since then, he has been looking for drinks in different restaurants every day, and has long been in Xiaoyulou's sight.
But today, after getting tired of drinking in restaurants in Yulin City, he finally stepped into Shuiyunjian.
Unfortunately, we happened to encounter a drunkard causing trouble.
Before anyone in the store could take action, Lu Xiaofeng enthusiastically helped the drunkard and politely sent him back to sleep.
Then this scene happened to be seen by Zhao Min and Huo Qingtong, who arrived at Yulin City at noon.
Zhao Min admired Lu Xiaofeng's ability to make friends with anyone, and immediately started chatting with him.
When the conversation got exciting, they first asked Cuiyu to clarify her identity, and then asked her to clear the building on the pretext that Zhao Yanhui would arrive today.
Although Cuiyu always felt that clearing the place would make the prince unhappy, but due to the order of the "princess", she had no choice but to comply.
She was cooking in the kitchen just now, preparing to welcome Zhao Yan back.
"Lu Xiaofeng is indeed very capable, that's why he was sent to Shengjing to be the contact person of the secret team."
Xiao Qiushui came up and picked up a bottle of wine, opened it and smelled it, with a very satisfied expression.
"You are so capable that you are recognized by others?"
Zhao Yan retorted unhappily.
"It was me who revealed the news to the Shenji Camp."
"……??What?"
"I didn't like the interference from the dark group, so I deliberately revealed the news to the Shenji Camp to force them to leave Shengjing."
Xiao Qiushui replied calmly.
this…
Is this human language?
But to Zhao Yan, this behavior was too unreliable.
"It doesn't matter. Lu Xiaofeng can change places and continue to be a liaison. He has friends all over the world and can do well wherever he goes."
"That's also...a bit of a jerk."
Zhao Yan thought about it carefully and felt that no matter what, this approach was too disruptive.
"So even if I don't go that day, Obai won't be able to kill them?"
"Obai didn't want to kill them. He deliberately created dangerous situations. He just wanted to lure me out. You came just in time and saved me a lot of trouble."
"I really need to thank you..."
While the two were talking, Zhao Min burped from wine and turned around sleepily to see Xiao Qiushui.
"Ah... I don't give tickets for listening to books!"
“……”
The two have also met each other.
Zhao Yan always complained that Xuanjilou put this story-telling table downstairs just for free prostitution.
So when she saw Xiao Qiushui, she subconsciously shouted out.
The latter coughed twice in embarrassment and moved to the table next to him to drink by himself.
"Cuiyu, send her upstairs to rest."
"No! I still want to..."
Snapped.
Before Zhao Min could finish her words, Zhao Yan struck her on the neck with a knife.
If you are not drunk, then you will be knocked unconscious.
"Send it up and take good care of her."
"Slave, you obey!"
Cuiyu obediently helped up the sleeping Zhao Min, then picked up her legs and carried Zhao Min upstairs in a princess hug.
In recognition of her status as "princess", Cuiyu thoughtfully sent her to the room originally reserved for Zhao Yan.
Of course, Zhao Yan didn't know about this yet, so he picked up the wine bottle and came to Xiao Qiushui.
I plan to include more content related to the Immortality Society within the allowed range.
But before he could ask, the curtain behind him was opened, and two extremely beautiful women walked in.
It was Huo Qingtong and Kasili.
"When sisters meet, why don't we chat for a while?"
Zhao Yan had no choice but to turn around and greet the two of them.
"There will still be a long time to come, so there is no rush."
Huo Qingtong walked to the table with a smile, took the wine bottle from the table next to him and found a bowl for himself.
"Master Xiao, Prince Qi, I will never thank you for your kindness. Qingtong will also be from Qixia Town from now on, but if you need anything, just ask!"
After saying that, she drank the wine in the bowl into her stomach in one gulp, and felt that her stomach was on fire, which was really satisfying.
"You're welcome, the old man just asked me to help."
Xiao Qiushui nodded slightly and took a sip from the wine bottle as a sign of agreement.
Zhao Yan poured himself a bowl in a dignified manner and took a sip in return.
"It's all in the wine."
Huo Qingtong nodded solemnly at him and looked at Xiao Qiushui.
"Xiao Daxia, can my two sisters return to Qixia Town at a later date?"
"Why? Do you have any unfinished business?"
"Exactly, now that my sister is going to Qixia Town, she plans to take the people from Tianjiang City to the south."
"Tianjiang City is full of warriors who have fought a hundred battles, so you can take them with you..."
Xiao Qiushui replied without hesitation, but still had some doubts.
"But wouldn't this completely strip away the foundation of the Qing Dynasty? Isn't this a bit..."
"It doesn't matter. There are less than 20,000 people left in Tianjiang City now. Even if we retain these foundations, we can only make small troubles and cannot create bigger troubles."
Huo Qingtong didn't take it seriously.
Now that she has made a decision, she will naturally consider it all.
I have to stay in Qixia Town for five years. During these five years, the people of Tianjiang City stayed in the Qing Kingdom, and the situation was worrying.
She was also burdened and unable to work wholeheartedly for Qixia Town.
What's more, with a scale of less than 20,000 people, it is not enough to protect themselves, let alone cause any damage to the Qing Dynasty. It is wishful thinking.
So instead of worrying about the head and the tail, it is better to take everyone to the south.
Huo Qingtong has observed the nearby terrain. Although there are many mountains and forests, as long as they are reclaimed, it will not be a problem to feed these tribesmen through farming.
"Since you have made up your mind, I have no reason to stop you, but I can only wait for you for three days. Once the time is up, you must hit the road immediately."
Xiao Qiushui agreed.
It was considered a smooth favor.
In itself, this is not a big deal.
Rather than chilling Huo Qingtong's heart by refusing, it would be better to agree generously.
"If you need any supplies, just tell me and I can ask the rookie to prepare them for you."
Zhao Yan said with a "rich" face.
Although he is stingy towards foreign thieves, he is extremely generous towards those he recognizes as one of his own.
Otherwise, Zhao Min would have been on the must-kill list long ago after taking so many sets of clothes from him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. There is indeed a shortage of supplies, but we will not take the things from Cainiaofang for free. Although Tianjiang City is destroyed, we still have a large amount of gold and precious minerals in our hands. As long as Your Majesty can offer some discounts."
Arranging for food, clothing, housing and transportation for nearly 20,000 people is by no means a small project.
The various regulatory and organizational capabilities required are of no small importance.
But if Cainiaofang fully cooperates and does not hold back in terms of materials, the efficiency will be visibly increased.
"Okay, I will write a letter tomorrow to ask people to prepare various supplies as soon as possible. I will send someone to connect with you then."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Huo Qingtong cupped his hands and thanked him.
Then he stood up and took Cassili's hand to say goodbye.
"You two enjoy yourself, my sister won't disturb you."
The two nodded slightly and said goodbye.
When the two sisters disappeared from the stairwell, Xiao Qiushui looked at Zhao Yan strangely.
"What, you also want to go back later?"
"Hey, how did you see that?"
Zhao Yan was even more confused.
He did have this plan, but he clearly didn't reveal it. How did the other party notice it?
"It seems that you haven't mastered the Heavenly Book of Forgetting Love yet."
"Otherwise your perception of the situation would be much more than that."
"I can hear the difference in your emotions from your conversation with Huo Qingtong."
Xiao Qiushui said helplessly.
Huo Qingtong will be delayed for a while, and he has no choice but to do so.
After all, except for the Xuanji Tower, no one in Kyushu has really found out that this woman's ability is terrifying.
Later is later, it is not dangerous.
But Zhao Yan would go back later, and he could tell at a glance that this guy wanted to do something dangerous.
"You saw it..."
Zhao Yan suddenly realized.
"There are too many secret books... There is no time to understand them. I will read them carefully when I go back this time. I will not stop until I reach the land of gods."
"You'd better tell me what you plan to do."
"It's nothing. Isn't this the way to go? I just want to go back to Kaifeng."
"Do you know how dangerous it will be if you go back now?"
After Xiao Qiushui understood his plan, his face darkened.
Today is different from the past…
Zhao Yan did not know about the existence of the Immortal Society before, so he would not attract attacks from the Immortal Society wherever he was.
There is a clear distinction between the two.
But now he is among the group of people who know that the Immortal Society exists.
If he goes back, the Unguaranteed Immortality Society will attack him.
If the third elder takes action, he will inevitably die.
"What danger can there be? There are only five Transcendent Realm masters in Kaifeng. Who can do anything to defeat me? Don't worry."
Zhao Yan smiled indifferently.
Of course he understood what Xiao Qiushui was worried about.
But there was a question in his mind, and it was really uncomfortable if he didn't solve it.
"You know I don't mean the mediocre ones."
“……”
In your eyes, someone in the extraordinary realm can only be a mediocre person...
Zhao Yan rolled his eyes.
"Since you also know how strong Taizu is, you naturally understand how easy it is for him to kill me."
"But the strange thing is that Taizu never seemed to show any signs of taking action against me."
"Even the Imperial Brother...Although Mr. Kang always instigates him to be wary of me, he never takes it seriously."
"These behaviors are very abnormal. I have to go back and ask clearly."
These questions have actually been hidden in his heart for a long time.
It's just that it was all conjecture before.
But after seeing Huang Taiji's attitude towards Emperor Xi in Shengjing and others, these issues became clear and important.
He must go back to Kaifeng...
Go meet Zhao Lu and ask him what he is thinking.
Now that we have a master like Ancestor as our backing...
Why not attack him.
