In the capital, at the Hall of Supreme Harmony,
With the shrill voice of Xiao Huangmen retreating from the court, all the ministers left the Hall of Supreme Harmony at the fastest speed in their lives.
At this moment, Lin Chunqiu's expression was terrifyingly gloomy. He glanced at Zhao Yu, took a deep look at the young student, and then said with a smile:
"The waves behind the river push the waves ahead. Your accomplishments in arithmetic are quite refreshing to my ears."
"After the court today, would you like to go to my house and have a chat?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the faces of the ministers of the Ministry of War immediately became nervous again.
Now Lin Chunqiu's momentum has faintly suppressed the entire court. He is now extending an olive branch to Zhao Yu. Will Zhao Yu...
Thinking of this, all the ministers immediately looked at Zhao Yu eagerly.
On the other hand, the empress on the dragon throne still looked calm. Because she is confident that the talents recommended by Yang Dong must be reliable.
Sure enough, Zhao Yu just smiled faintly, cupped his hands towards Lin Chunqiu, and then said without being humble or arrogant:
"Thank you for your support, Lord Chief Assistant. As a student, I am of low status and I'm afraid I can't afford the invitation from Lord Chief Assistant. And..."
"And if Mr. Yang knows about this, I'm afraid he will inevitably blame the students!"
As soon as he said this, the sneer on Lin Chunqiu's face became deeper and deeper.
Yang Dong has already left the capital, and he still wants to cause trouble for me.
If that's the case, then you can stay in Youzhou!
…
The selection of the grain officer is just the beginning of this competition. In the next few days, Lin Chunqiu's party and General Yang Yan's party faced each other tit for tat, and it could be said that they both won and lost.
The party struggle between them made the burden on the empress a lot easier.
At this moment, she finally understood what a far-sighted decision Yang Dong had made in establishing Lanxiang Academy!
Compared with those Confucian scholars who keep talking about poetry, the students from Lanxiang Academy are all talents who can work hard to rejuvenate the country.
The empress thought so, got up and left the desk, walked to the window, and looked to the north.
I don’t know if Xiao Dongzi encountered any trouble...
The party struggle in the court is now considered the top priority in the capital.
In comparison, the opening of Shen Laosan's Liuli store seemed a bit insignificant.
But...even so, the opening of Liuli Store still attracted the attention of many wealthy businessmen.
Especially this price, which is only about 30% of the market price...
Capital City, Sun Mansion,
Sun Xing looked at the entire warehouse of Liuli, as if he had fallen into madness, his eyes full of madness.
"Hahaha! The price of glass has dropped by 90%, 90%!"
"My master has paid so much that he has bankrupted his entire family!"
"If father knew about this, where would there be room for me in the Sun family??"
"Shen Laosan, I will fight with you even if I die!"
…
At this moment, in Liuli shop.
Shen Laosan didn't know why, but he shuddered subconsciously.
He touched his nose, a flash of panic flashing in his eyes.
It's over, it's over, the father and son of the Sun family are probably sharpening their knives on me right now, right?
No, I have to find a way to escape. We must not give the Sun family father and son a chance to come to our door.
Fortunately, I have already made arrangements...
Shen Laosan coughed slightly and suddenly said loudly:
"Butler, Zhao Qian, Sun Li, and the four bosses will all sign the contracts and send them over."
"In addition, if someone comes to make trouble, you will send someone to inform these four bosses."
After saying this, Shen Laosan escaped directly from the side door of Liulician.
Outside the side door, a tall maroon horse was tied to a tree.
…
Yang Dong's carriage team traveled through the mountains for several days.
Looking at the endless mountains, Yang Dong couldn't help but ask:
"How long will it take for us to get out of the mountains?"
Tieniu, who was driving the car, smiled innocently, rubbed the back of his head and said:
"Mr. Yang, this is my first time in Youzhou, how do you know this?"
When Yang Dong heard this, a look of helplessness flashed across his face.
He suddenly doubted whether it would be a wrong decision to let Tieniu be responsible for driving.
Fortunately, the two brothers and sisters, Zhuqing and Zhuyu, have been doing justice in the world for many years. Zhu Qing jumped off the carriage, looked at the sun and the position of the mountains, and said confidently:
"Mr. Yang, now we have entered the territory of Youzhou. If we want to escape from the mountains, we will only have to travel about half a day."
"Half a day..."
Yang Dong pondered for a moment, looked at the sun that was almost setting, frowned and said:
"It seems that we may not be able to get out of these mountains today. Zhuqing, according to the planned journey, is there an inn ahead?"
As the captain of the team, Zhuqing had naturally prepared everything.
He pointed to a green mountain not far away and said:
"Mr. Yang, that mountain is our destination today. There is an inn on the mountain. My junior sister and I stayed here three years ago."
Hearing this, Yang Dong nodded slightly and said:
"In that case, let's go there quickly."
…
Only the last trace of the setting sun remains in the western sky.
Before the sky darkened, Yang Dong's carriage finally arrived at the green mountain that Zhu Qingkou mentioned.
The green hills are lush and bushy. And halfway up the mountain, a quaint three-story building stands here.
Wan Yanyue jumped down from the carriage, stretched lazily, and then said with an unhappy look:
"Xiao Dongzi, I have been vomiting after eating pancakes these days. No matter what, you have to roast a leg of lamb for me tonight to satisfy my craving. Do you hear me?"
When Yang Dong heard this, the expression on his face couldn't help but be stunned.
"Princess Wanyan, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Even if I want to help you roast a leg of lamb, where can you find a leg of lamb in this barren mountain? Besides, without those spices, the leg of lamb I roast will not taste good. .”
Wan Yanyue seemed to have expected that he would say this. After hearing what he said, instead of showing any displeasure on his face, he said excitedly:
"I have already expected that you would say this, so I have been prepared for it."
"I have already brought the spices you used. As for the leg of lamb, wouldn't it be nice to let Tie Hanhan, who is responsible for driving your car, hunt a goat?"
Upon hearing this, Tieniu immediately smiled and scratched his head and said:
"Mr. Yang, if that's the case, why don't I go hunt a goat. It's just a good time for everyone to improve."
Yang Dong shook his head and said:
"Tieniu, the little princess doesn't have enough brains, and you don't have enough either? The inn is right in front of you, why don't we just buy it?"
"Hey, Mr. Yang is right."
Tieniu scratched his head honestly, and was about to push open the door of the inn, when suddenly a gust of mountain wind blew by, bringing with it a pungent smell of blood.
The next moment, Zhu Qing almost subconsciously protected Zhu Yu beside him.
Yang Dong, on the other hand, firmly protected Yao Jia behind him.
Some people died, but not completely...
