Jiangdu, Yuwen Mansion.
As the number one family in Jiangdu, and a close associate of the current Emperor Sui, the Yuwen family's reputation in several cities in Jiangdu can make children cry.
In the courtyard, the flowing water garden is lively and fragrant.
Yu Wenji sat on the long fishing trestle of the manor, drinking strong wine and admiring the winter moon.
"Report to the Lord, someone has found the whereabouts of the two boys from Yangzhou. They got off the merchant ship wearing the clothes of the temporary workers of the Song family a few days ago, and were then picked up by unknown persons and disappeared again."
Yu Wenhuaji picked up the wine glass, smelled it lightly, and drank it all in one gulp.
Today's Song family, with three great masters in each sect, is truly a behemoth.
The only thing that comforted him was that the Song family didn't care about spies. Those who enter the Song family's camp, caravans, and even Lingnan to work are only judged by their ability, not their birth.
Everyone naturally likes such a harmonious and wealthy family, and will not offend them easily.
But this time, the person the emperor wanted, the person his Yuwen family wanted, was still in his territory in Jiangdu, and the Song family actually openly covered up for the two thieves.
Too much!
"Who is the person in charge of the caravan this time? No matter who it is, I must ask him to give me an explanation for the Yuwen family, otherwise I will go to the emperor to vouch for him!" Yu Wenhuaji asked calmly.
The Grand Master would not take action for a while, and the other Song family members with the highest martial arts skills were just a small swordsman called Song Zhi. He wanted to get on the boat to question him.
"Reporting to the Lord, this Song family caravan has been staying in Hangzhou. It has been confirmed that the current person in charge is a direct descendant of the Song family: Song Yuzhi."
Yu Wenhua paused with the wine glass in his hand and fell silent.
After a long time, his subordinates asked curiously: "Master, when are we going to the Song family to ask for an explanation?
The Song family's fleet is too arrogant. The first ship has been docked at the Hangzhou pier, and they don't even pay our Haisha Gang protection fees, sanitation fees, and management fees!
Even the men I sent to ask for money were beaten and thrown into the river. If you, the Valve Master, hadn't told us not to offend the Song family, we would have taken people to find Song Yuzhi to get an explanation! "
Yu Wenhuaji looked at him lightly.
"roll!"
"yes!"
When his men left in a hurry, Yu Wenhuaji looked up at the bright moon in the sky, feeling a little melancholy.
Is the Song family sick? They sent a great master to do business?
How much money can you make by trading with some mud-legged people? You just have to say how much you want, tell the number, and our Yuwen family will give you double.
Please don’t send that Song Yuzhi to Jiangdu!
Yu Wenhuaji would even have nightmares whenever he recalled the scene where Song Yuzhi was invincible on the Goryeo river and was invincible.
Since that little girl can kill the Koreans and the great master Cai Lin, can she also kill herself?
He, the majestic leader of the Yuwen Clan, had been practicing hard for forty years, and finally had the good fortune to cultivate the Xuan Bing Jin to great perfection, but he was actually not as good as a young girl in her prime.
Is this reasonable? ! ! !
…
Yangzhou, dock.
The residence of the Song family.
Song Zhi was as calm as ever. After negotiating with various merchants, he slowly walked back to the station, thinking about what was wrong along the way.
With the vigorous development and support of the small countries in Lingnan and southwest, the Song family needs a lot of manpower and material resources, so the expenses are also increasing.
Of course, large expenses also mean that these wealthy households have made money. One of them is keen on buying all kinds of rare treasures brought by the Song family from all over the world, and the other is also willing to save money in the Song family bank account.
You have to pay a custody fee when you deposit money.
With the defeat of the war, major disasters continued to occur in various places, and wars broke out again in various places.
Keeping large sums of money at home is a recipe for death. But the registered banknotes of the Song family bank account are very good. No one can take them out unless specially designated people.
Entering the inner room, Song Zhi immediately saw his silly nephew sitting on the table, looking at a purple jade teapot in a daze, with a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth from time to time.
Since the last time he saw the Korean woman, Song Shidao has often been like this. He will be in a daze when nothing happens. He will be happy for a long time when he receives the information about Fu Junma's safety. If the woman is found by Yu Wenhua, he will rush to send someone to help.
What on earth was this guy thinking?
That woman is a Korean, and she is also a direct disciple of the great master of Korea, Cai Lin. With the eldest brother's xenophobic temperament, if he knew that his own son fell in love with a Korean woman, it would be easy to break his legs.
After all, if you lose your son, you can still have another one. If you lose your face, you will really lose it.
"Teacher's way?"
"Ah, hey, hey, second uncle, when did you come back?" Song Shidao said with a smile.
Song Zhi shook his head.
Alcohol is an intestinal toxin, and women are bone scrapers. If you are addicted to both, they will only overdraw the human body and will like boiling a frog in warm water.
And if someone like my nephew is obsessed with a woman to the point of losing his soul, then he may be close to being a prodigal.
Why!
When he thought about what the future heir of the Song family would look like, he felt uncomfortable and even lost a lot of motivation to fight.
Fortunately, Yuzhi has been doing pretty well these days and even managed the Song family's business.
However, he wanted to laugh when he thought of the last time Goryeo vigorously distributed life security guarantees.
Originally, according to the rules of the Song family, the Song family would only release special rescue fireworks to those who had reached the master level in a certain skill or had made great contributions to the Song family.
When the huge black Song character shines in the sky, the guards of the Song family within a hundred miles of the surrounding area must provide unconditional support, and all local forces must do their best to ensure the safety of the target.
If the target person is harmed, the Song family will take full action to avenge him.
When necessary, the Grand Master will also come forward.
But during the Sui Dynasty's northern expedition to Goryeo, Song Yuzhi, in order to make money, actually came up with a temporary security firework, one hundred thousand taels to ensure wartime safety.
Logically speaking, this money is earned in vain. If ten people buy a 100,000 yuan, they can make a million taels of money.
After all, in Song Yuzhi's opinion, no matter how hard the 300,000-strong army fights against 30,000, they will lose.
Then Yang Guang slapped Song Yuzhi hard with the facts, and even forced her to take action in the end to save the Song family from losing blood.
In this world, people's calculations are never as good as God's calculations.
Fortunately, to his relief, at least his niece got down to business. If Song Shidao really can't help him, the worst he can do is let his niece be the head of the family.
This world is so big that there are many female leaders, such as Cihang Jingzhai, Demon Sect, and the Dongming Sect.
"Second Master, there is a gift from Miss Song." A servant reported outside.
"oh?"
Song Zhi stroked his beard and Lao Huai comforted him.
My niece has really grown up, and she even thinks of bringing gifts to her second uncle when she is away from home.
"Okay, okay!"
He stepped forward to receive the gift in person, and it turned out to be an exquisitely packaged gift box made of rosewood with a secret lock. The contents inside were a rare treasure in the world.
Song Zhi was looking forward to it.
It took him half an hour to use the Song family's exclusive cipher text to finally open the cipher text lock, and then slowly opened the box, wondering if it was some royal treasure.
After all, the Song family's mythical beast has been staying with his niece recently, and Le Ye's most bizarre skill is to pick up strange things everywhere.
For example, the whetstone used by the elder brother was made of meteorite iron. It was originally intended to be a weapon, but it couldn't be melted, so it had to be used as a whetstone for the elder brother.
Of course, undergarments, bellybands, pantyhose, etc. don't count.
"Pa~"
Finally, the box was opened, and the expectant light in Song Zhi's eyes gradually disappeared.
Inside there was a piece of broken and bloody clothing, and a letter.
The second master of the Song family fell into deep thought.
This niece has come a long way to give me this? No, there must be something else hidden. Maybe the clothes contain some valuable information.
Although the niece may not be reliable, isn't Master Le still by her side?
Picking up the letter, first checking to make sure it had not been opened, Song Zhi smiled slightly, then opened it and read it.
【certificate:
In the eighth year of Daye's reign, Song Yuzhi, the legitimate daughter of the Song family, saw fleeing soldiers on the road, massacred villages and robbed young girls. In anger, she personally took action and killed the bandits. She was cut into pieces with thousands of cuts, leaving only a few pieces of clothing. Hereby, prove.
Tmall - Miao Le. 】
[Second uncle, I am awesome! ---Song Yuzhi]
There was a bright red cat's paw mark at the end of the envelope.
After reading the content of the letter, the smile on Song Zhi's face gradually disappeared, and his expression changed from comfort to shock, and then to confusion and confusion.
Finally, he froze in his chair and started thinking about life.
Why are you, a great master, so proud of defeating a bandit? He was a majestic swordsman and had been wandering around the world for decades. He probably had to deal with more enemies than she had ever seen.
Is he proud?
After a while, Song Zhi and Song Shidao both sat at the table in a daze.
The two most outstanding descendants of the Song family looked like this, and they were probably going to die.
…
Hangzhou, giant ship.
"Master Le, Master Le, wouldn't you be very happy if my second uncle and father received my letter? I can now be on my own!"
Song Yuzhi asked happily while holding the sleepy little yellow cat.
"Meow~" the little yellow cat raised its paw perfunctorily.
You little shit-shocker is ridiculous. When I casually killed billions of creatures, you didn’t know where you were.
"Miss, Li Xiuning of the Li family has sent a greeting card and invites you and Princess Dongming to go to the Li Mansion for a banquet." A guard reported outside.
Song Yuzhi was a little happy when he heard this.
There are guests invited, and according to Le Ye's rules, there is no need to read in the afternoon.
And it's Sister Xiuning. In the past, Sister Xiuning was the only one who was willing to come and play with her in Daxing. Girls from other families stopped coming after meeting her a few times.
Don't you just invite them to take a bath together and touch them? What are you afraid of?
rush!
…
Li Mansion.
As a relative of the Sui Emperor, his patriarch Li Yuan was Yang Guang's cousin, so he had business in various prefectures and places.
Originally, the various families were at odds with each other, but since the Song family's fleet traveled all over the world, everyone had an epiphany.
How can you make money faster by farming than by doing business?
In all prosperous places like Jiangdu, various families and tribes have gradually established their presence.
Although they all wear a layer of vests and belong to this gang and that faction, everyone knows the person behind the scenes.
Make money, not shabby.
"Drive!" Two chivalrous ladies in powerful clothes stopped directly at the door of Li's house.
"Xu~"
Song Yu shouted and jumped off the horse. He was dressed in strong clothes and had a single ponytail, looking heroic.
According to everyone's rules, the female family members usually go to the banquet in a carriage, go through the back door, wear all kinds of gorgeous clothes and headdresses, and compete with each other to make it inconvenient to see foreign men.
But what Song Yuzhi hates most is wearing dresses, which are very inconvenient. They can be easily torn into pieces in a fight, and even when she lifts her legs, air leaks.
"Miss Song, Miss Shan, you are here to greet us. If you are not far away, please come!" The housekeeper of the Li Mansion stepped forward to greet them with a smile.
"Come here, take the two ladies' horses down, feed them well, and use the best feed."
"yes!"
Song Yuzhi waved his hand: "No, my Song family's horse won't eat outside food. Just find a quiet place to keep it. Don't let him get close to other mares."
The butler nodded, although he didn't understand what he meant.
"Okay, Miss Song. My lady has been waiting in the house for a long time. In addition, all the young talents from Jiangdu will come to attend the banquet tonight, so it will be lively."
"Um!"
Song Yuzhi looked at the other two people behind the housekeeper: Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.
"I didn't expect you two guys to come to Li's house."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling raised their heads, showed awkward yet polite smiles, and cupped their fists.
"Miss Song, Sister Xiuning once saved the lives of two of our brothers, so we can only repay the kindness by joining the Li family."
Song Yuzhi nodded, noncommittal, took Shan Wanjing's little hand, the little yellow cat on her shoulder half-closed her eyes and was still dozing, and walked straight in.
Just two ordinary passers-by. So what if they have special abilities? There are only eight thousand people in the Song family who have special abilities.
For example, there is a man named Chen Fei who can eat thirty bowls of rice in one meal and then go without food for three days. My little yellow cat can sleep twelve hours a day
inside the house.
Li Xiuning, wearing a pink dress and gorgeous headdress, warmly welcomed her. Song Yuzhi was not polite and went to the side to stick it.
"Sister Xiuning, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't you come to see me?"
Li Xiuning tapped her little nose: "I would like to, but my father won't let me and my brothers go out, what can I do?"
"Ah? Sister Xiuning has been grounded? Did you do something fun?" Song Yuzhi immediately became interested.
She was often grounded when she was a child, such as peeing in the dirt, and then taking Le Ye and Niba with her to play happily. After returning home, her elder brother received a sound beating from her father.
Unfortunately, as I get older, my father hasn’t spanked my eldest brother for a long time.
Li Xiuning frowned slightly and said slowly.
"It was not like this at the beginning, because my father was the emperor's cousin. He rose through the ranks and became the prefect of Xingyang (today's Xingyang, Henan) and Loufan (today's Jingle, Shanxi). Later, he was conscripted into the imperial court. He was appointed as the young eunuch in the palace.
Now, he has been transferred to Weiwei Shaoqing to take charge of the imperial guards, and has begun to shift from civil service to military service. He was in tit-for-tat confrontation with the Yuwen family who was originally in charge of the imperial guards.
Because of our kinship, the emperor has always supported my Li family and even overshadowed the Yuwen family.
But not long ago, the emperor suddenly had a dream one day. He dreamed that floods submerged Daxing City in Kyoto, and the Jinluan Palace was flooded. Eighteen people crawled out of the water and killed him, waking him up directly.
So the emperor asked a magician to interpret it: it was said that the eighteenth son was Li, and there was water in the floods, that is, a person with the surname Li. People with water in their names would overturn the Sui Dynasty.
Then Taishi Li Mu was beheaded because he stepped into the hall with his left foot and participated in the court meeting. This scared my father to the point of going crazy, and from then on we were forbidden to go out.
And he spent the whole day drinking and drinking, marrying one aunt after another, eating, drinking and gambling every day, and was often absent even when on duty. "
Song Yuzhi and the little yellow cat looked at each other and smacked their lips.
What's there to worry about? Envy cried.
