Liang Xiao quickly turned around and was slightly surprised to see someone coming from the door.

She is an energetic old woman, thin, wearing simple silk clothes, without any headgear. Her brows are as strong as those of young people, and she has a nuclear smile on her face.

The legendary Mrs. Mu, the most amazing woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty forty years ago, was so unpretentious and kind, so kind that it was scary.

The crutch in her hand is said to be made of iron

"Grandma~"

Reunited after a long separation, Mu Qinxue ran towards Mrs. Mu with tears in her eyes, threw herself into her arms and started acting coquettishly.

"Hey, grandma's sweet little Xue'er!"

Mrs. Mu's face was full of doting. While hugging her granddaughter to comfort her, she turned her eyes to Liang Xiao.

"Who are you?"

"Mom, he is Liang Xiao..." Mu Ping smiled dryly.

"Oh?" Mrs. Mu looked surprised, "This child looks very resistant."

"Resist?" Liang Xiao was slightly surprised.

"mother……"

"grandmother!!"

The father and daughter felt guilty and warned each other one after another.

Only then did Mrs. Mu realize that she had lost her composure, and said with a smile: "I'm just happy for a moment, don't mind."

Liang Xiao:......

The family of four chatted familiarly with Liang Xiao.

Mrs. Mu was not surprised when she learned that Liang Xiao and Mu Qinxue had settled in love and that Mu Qinxue would marry Duan Yunxiu.

"As expected of my granddaughter!"

Mu Qinxue glanced nervously at Liang Xiao, who was thoughtful, and pulled Mrs. Mu's sleeve.

Mrs. Mu quickly changed the subject and said, "You just said that you will go to Yanzhou to serve as the governor in a while?"

Liang Xiao nodded.

Mrs. Mu smiled and said: "It just so happens that the child's grandfather is also in the north. You can go find him then. He is looking forward to seeing you."

"Wanted to see through it?" Liang Xiao was surprised again.

Why do you always feel like something is not quite right?

Mu Qinxue murmured: "After all, my grandfather loves me the most, and he just wants me to marry a good man..."

Liang Xiao said "Oh" and said no more.

Mrs. Mu chatted with Liang Xiao again. Seeing that Liang Xiao spoke eloquently, answered questions fluently, and had a calm demeanor, the more she saw, the more pleased she became. She couldn't help but touched Liang Xiao's head and praised: "A true pillar of talent. Xueer will be responsible for taking care of you from now on."

Liang Xiao laughed dumbly and nodded.

Mu Qinxue's heart rose in her throat.

Her grandma is getting older and is not as cautious as before?

After sending Liang Xiao away, the family of four gathered together, and Mu Ping and his wife looked depressed.

"Good little Xue'er, how many slaps can this child withstand?" Mrs. Mu asked.

The couple almost fell over.

Mu Qinxue finally couldn't help but said angrily: "Grandma! I, I can't bear to beat him..."

"That won't work! It's natural for you to be a good wife and mother for him in the future, but you have to pay attention to it in daily life. If he brings harm to the country and the people, or is hungry outside, or picks up prostitutes, etc., you must give him a lesson and then guide him to the right direction. Shan. If he changes his mind and turns traitor, he will not only let you down, but also the princess!" Mrs. Mu said sternly.

"Even the teacher favors him, but he is not that kind of person~" Mu Qinxue said with a look of infatuation, "But if he fails sister Yunxiu, I will whip him with a whip~ bang~"

Mrs. Mu was relieved. After exchanging tacit understanding with Mu Qinxue, she smiled and said, "Since even Prime Minister Zhuge thinks highly of him, that's the best thing! When you go to Yanzhou, take him to see your grandfather. He said he wanted to give you a surprise. When the time comes, the Marquis Dingguo Mansion in the capital will prepare a dowry worth one million taels, how about it? "

"That depends on what parents want~" Mu Qinxue said happily.

Mu Ping and his wife just nodded and said in unison: "This is as compensation for Liang Xiao."

"Compensation?" Mu Qinxue suddenly grimaced.

Her parents always believed that Liang Xiao was cheating by marrying her...

After all, her grandfather's strict control over his wife was vividly in her mind. The Marquis of Dingguo, who commanded thousands of troops, was as cowardly as a grandson in front of his wife.

Because Mrs. Mu was returning home, Mu Qinxue did not move into Lanlinghou Mansion immediately, but stayed at home with her grandma.

However, Mu Qinxue would read the account books, financial reports, and property details sent by Liang Xiao every day.

Gongyang's Liquor Industry in Beijing has been completely defeated by Lanling Liquor House and was forced to withdraw.

With the support of Liang Xiao, the Dingguo Hou Mansion purchased most of the sugar and resold it all over the country. The Gongsun family was able to purchase only about one-tenth of the sugar, but they still made a lot of money.

With the assistance of Dingguo Houfu, Liang Xiao expanded his wine shop to towns around the capital, and newspapers also regularly escorted him.

If it were not for the risk of leaking secrets, Liang Xiao would even want to open the newspaper office to other places to collect materials locally, which is convenient and fast.

A few months after the newspaper came out, the people in the capital have become accustomed to its existence.

An average issue lasts three to seven days. The content quality of each newspaper issue is comparable to that of a book. It is bound together and can be read as a book. It is of high quality and low price.

The major aristocratic families could only carve wooden boards, but they still failed to develop movable type printing and woodblock printing.

In Duanmu's workshop, Duanmu Yun looked at a pile of blurred papers on the table with a livid face.

"The problem is the ink, right? Even if we don't know what kind of material Liang Xiao uses, we can conclude based on the spies' information that the layout is made of copper plates and ordinary wood. Mix the ink, and I don't believe it can't be done!"

At this time, Duanmu Yunqing almost collapsed.

Their book industry in the capital had been destroyed by Liang Xiao, leaving only the workshop, which was no different than an empty shell.

Even if the hand-copied book is reduced to cost price, few copies will be sold.

No one likes to frequently sell books worth more than 600 yuan or even 1,000 yuan.

The books at Lanling Bookstore only require one or two hundred texts.

Liang Xiao, the loser who once had his fiancée stolen from him, turned around in less than half a year and became a world-famous poet of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and also became a huge millionaire!

In contrast, he, a great talent in the capital who was praised by his family, has long been ignored and has even become the laughing stock of the whole city.

His wife Nangong Ning is now depressed and crying all day long because he cannot compose even one poem that can compare with Liang Xiao's.

The more Duanmu Yunqing thought about it, the more he hated it, and he roared hysterically at the housekeeper behind him.

"It's not convenient to start in the capital, so Liang Xiao went to Jiangnan to set up newspaper offices and sugar mills... Send people to Jiangnan. No matter what means are used, within half a year, I will obtain complete sugar production technology and newspaper technology!"

In the afternoon, there will be a court meeting.

Duan Yunyi announced in public that several Beijing officials between the ninth and seventh grades of the Tuoba clan would be temporarily reinstated.

Duanmujie and other ministers showed little interest and remained silent.

Duan Yunyi saw their reactions in his eyes and frowned.

Since the Tuoba clan was suppressed, these aristocratic families seemed to be silent, but in fact they were protesting against her in another way.

Passive cooperation.

They were asked to implement the matters decided in court, and they also passed the blame on each other, each with more valid excuses than the other.

Duan Yunxiu suppressed the anger in his heart and announced in public.

"I have something that I need to discuss with the families. Lanling Marquis Liang Aiqing can be of great use. I intend to let him experience and serve as the governor of the state and county. What do you think of the family?"

The officials were stunned.

"External transfer??"
