"Your Majesty is still thoughtful."
Su Chengwang smiled, "In that case, Qingyun."
Shen Qingyun heard the sound and stepped forward, stretched out his hand and said: "The wine is ready, Mr. Yang, please follow me."
"Your Majesty, I will guide you."
Yang Keyong's attitude was very good, and the news spread throughout the imperial capital before he set off.
Maybe His Majesty's imperial decree granting marriage is behind him. The young man in front of him is not an ordinary dude from a border town, but is about to become one of the most glorious, honorable and powerful men in Da Chu.
In addition, Su Chengwang is still in front of him, and Yang Keyong is not stupid, so of course he will treat him gently.
However, Xiang Gan sent Yang Ke to the outside world just passing by Liangzhou City and rushing to Qingyan Pass for inspection. No one would have thought that he wanted to do business with Shen Qingyun.
This was Xiang Qian's goodwill and a kind of protection for the British government.
In this way, since Yang Keyong accepted Xiang Qian's order to keep it secret for the time being, he naturally knew very well what to say and what not to say, and he was happy to do so.
Xiang Qian asked him to do this kind of thing, which was Xiang Qian's trust.
Shen Qingyun and Su Chengwang naturally understand this very well.
Therefore, Shen Qingyun's respect for Yang Keyong is genuine.
In the follow-up, it is estimated that the minister of the Ministry of War and Siniang will interact with each other in person, and their attitudes must be good.
Shen Qingyun took Yang Keyong to the wine cellar, opened the door, and was greeted by a strong smell of alcohol.
Yang Keyong frowned and said: "There is such a strong smell even before it is opened. Just the smell of alcohol escaping makes me very drunk. It seems that the prince's new brew is indeed extraordinary."
"It makes you laugh." Shen Qingyun said with a smile: "For use in the army, naturally the best is needed. I have carefully prepared these for you to use."
"I trust the prince, so there is no need to open the package for inspection. I will take these away."
Shen Qingyun was stunned, "Thank you for your trust, sir. Then I will send someone to load the car for you."
"Thank you."
Yang Keyong nodded slightly, Shen Qingyun waved immediately upon seeing this, Zhang Nan and others immediately stepped forward and started loading the car.
"I naturally understand the magical properties of spirits. This batch of wine is only for trial use, but if it is purchased later, can the prince still guarantee the quality of the wine?"
Shen Qingyun replied: "Don't worry, sir. Since we are doing business with the imperial court, how can I dare to cut corners? As long as the Ministry of War is willing to purchase from me, I will guarantee with my head that there will be no adulteration."
Yang Keyong smiled when he heard the words, raised his hand and said: "The prince is joking, how can it be so serious? But the prince is talented, as long as the effect is the same, the Ministry of War will not find fault with the prince."
Just kidding, you are flying the flag of the British government now, and you can ignore small problems. Even if there are big problems, you won't lose your head.
"I'll have to trouble my lord a lot more about this matter."
Shen Qingyun wanted to give some bribes, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
After all, Yang Keyong was personally assigned by Xiang Qian, so it was okay to accept it. Naturally, Yang Keyong wouldn't talk too much.
But if you don't accept it, it will be equivalent to leaving a bad impression in front of Xiang Qian.
Shen Qingyun didn't understand Yang Keyong's personality, and he didn't want to do such risky things.
If the gain outweighs the loss, there is no need to do more.
After loading dozens of jars of unmixed general brew stored in the cellar into the car, Yang Keyong said goodbye to Su Chengwang: "I am on official business, so I won't keep any more."
Su Chengwang nodded, "Master Yang will go on your own, and I will see you off not far away."
"Old Prime Minister, you're welcome."
Shen Qingyun cupped his hands and said, "Sir, walk slowly."
"Yeah." Yang Ke hummed, turned around and boarded the carriage.
The honor guard procession of dozens of people moved forward slowly, with Zhang Nan driving a wine cart behind.
"Are you happy now?"
Back in the hall, Su Chengwang looked at Shen Qingyun who couldn't stop smiling, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
After hearing this, Shen Qingyun stood up and bowed respectfully to Su Chengwang, "I would like to thank you for your help in this matter."
"Even without me, it's not difficult for you to do this."
"It's always better to have less trouble." Shen Qingyun said with a smile: "Six Niang has traveled all over the surrounding cities these days, and has already purchased shops. Restaurants and gambling houses are ready at any time. Now that General Lie has a stable sales, I Now that I have the confidence, it’s time to choose an auspicious day to open the business.”
Su Chengwang smiled and said: "It seems that you are really big-hearted."
“Since we are doing business, of course the bigger the business, the better.”
"Have you chosen a name for the restaurant?" Su Chengwang did not ask the gambling house.
"I was just going to ask you to pick up the pen."
Su Chengwang smiled and scolded: "You still want to have my idea, but this time, I can't do what you want."
Su Chengwang refused, and Shen Qingyun didn't force it. He spread his hands and said: "Look what you said, I am very happy to open my business, and I want you to be happy too. What's the idea?
But since you don't want to, then let it be. "
Shen Qingyun was not surprised by this and only said: "The restaurant is called Jiangjun Tower. As for the gambling house, it was Siniang who took it and it is called Qianjin Square."
"Jiangjun Tower, Qianjinfang..." Su Chengwang nodded and said, "Since General Lie is the gimmick, the name of General Tower is indeed appropriate."
"When the time comes, will you support me?"
Su Chengwang glanced sideways at Shen Qingyun and sneered: "Even if I am willing, do you really dare to let me show up?"
"Look at what you said." Shen Qingyun chuckled, "You should be at the age of old age now. How dare you personally take action on such a trivial matter? I don't have such a big face..."
"Slippery, get out."
"okay."
Shen Qingyun went away happily.
With the arrival of Xiang Ling, Yang Keyong and others, Su Chengwang's identity is no longer a secret.
Coupled with Shen Qingyun's current reputation in the imperial capital, he is already the target of everyone's attention.
Shen Qingyun and Su Chengwang have such close contacts, it will be easy for others to know. If Su Chengwang really goes to support Jiangjun Tower, he will be telling others who the owner of Jiangjun Tower is.
In this way, all previous efforts will be wasted, and the previous efforts spent on covering up will be wasted.
Shen Qingyun and Su Chengwang have not yet received a response from Xiang Ling and Qibu, but Sheng Lingyun, who has been monitoring Xiang Ling, got the news first.
"Immediately send a message to the Commander-in-Chief that Tong Yong, the Marquis of Nanzhen of the Chu State, will soon lead 50,000 troops and horses to leave the border to help King Xiang Ling of Liang. This is a God-given opportunity for the Commander-in-Chief to seize."
Although Sheng Yuanbai did not tell Sheng Lingyun all his plans, Sheng Lingyun knew that the bandits outside Zhuxi City were pretended to be led by General Zuo Wuwei of Jiayuguan. Even if he guessed, he could guess that his father There must be some plan.
Moreover, Sheng Lingyun must report such a big transfer of Tong Yong.
There are definitely not too many opportunities like this. No matter what Sheng Yuanbai wants to do, this is the best time.
At Qingyan Pass, Yue Cheng also met Su Chengwang's old servant.
After reading the letter, Yue Cheng asked: "I already understand what the old prime minister means, but the old prime minister should also know that my identity is sensitive and I am not as comfortable as Tong Yong. Once I make a mistake, even if there is a reason, I am afraid It’s hard to be kind.”
The old servant bowed and said: "Don't worry, sir, my master has asked people from the Seventh Department to investigate, and there will be 'tangible evidence' soon."
Yue Cheng nodded slightly, but frowned again, "Then Shen Qingyun..."
The old servant smiled and said: "Speaking of the crown prince, I specially asked you to congratulate me."
Yue Cheng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Although Lianshuang is interested in Shen Qingyun, I have no objection, but the matter has not been settled after all. Is it too early for the old prime minister to celebrate this joy?"
The old servant shook his head and said: "It's not early, not at all. Congratulations to the father-in-law for getting such a good son-in-law. Congratulations to the princess for her unique vision. The prince is no ordinary person."
"I believe in the vision of the old Prime Minister, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. No matter how extraordinary a person is, he is still young after all."
"The master said, it's better to be young."
"Indeed, being young is good."
Not to mention that the Shen family was already close to the Yue family, Yue Cheng's feelings towards Shen Qingyun would not be too bad.
In addition, Shen Qingyun is a bride-in-law. With this name, his status is completely different. Yue Cheng can rest assured that Shen Qingyun will help Yue Lianshuang take charge of Yulin Mountain.
Therefore, the more capable Shen Qingyun is, the happier and satisfied Yue Cheng is, and the more valuable Shen Qingyun is.
The more valuable it is, the more tolerant and caring Yue Cheng will be, the greater the energy Shen Qingyun can mobilize accordingly.
This can be regarded as a virtuous circle.
Judging from the current performance, Shen Qingyun has completely exceeded Yue Cheng's expectations.
Yue Cheng laughed, and then said: "You can go back and report it, just say that I have accepted the matter, and there will be no mistakes."
"yes."
Xiang Ling rushed from Shiyang to Xiyang. When passing by Liangzhou, he just said hello to Su Chengwang and Shen Qingyun to explain the situation, and then continued on his way without stopping.
Not long after Xiang Ling left, Shen Xiong and Qibu also sent back news.
"Tong Yong is so happy, it seems that you expected it." Su Chengwang shook his head in disappointment.
Shen Qingyun smiled and said: "The sky is high and the emperor is far away. If my father is not here, Tong Yong will only become more rampant."
Shen Qingyun and Su Chengwang understood that this was done intentionally by Xiang Qian.
Above the court, King Cheng was used to check and balance the prince, and on the border outside the court, Shen Xiong was used to check and balance Tong Yong.
This is to prevent a situation where one company dominates the market.
Not only Tong Yong, but also the red feathered cavalry led by Yue King Xiang Yu on the southwest border where Yue Cheng was stationed.
The two sides cooperated with each other, feared each other, and restrained each other. However, because Shen Xiong was from the Yuecheng lineage and not a princeling, there was no direct conflict with Tong Yong, and the two of them would not be in tit-for-tat, so they would not be hindered by border defense.
Yue Cheng and Xiang Yu were in a similar situation.
So far, Xiang Qian has personally created such a wonderful balance.
After Shen Qingyun figured out the complicated relationship, he couldn't help but admire Xiang Qian, the Emperor of Chu who was far away in the imperial capital.
The emperor's scheming really spread throughout the world.
"Presumably Jin Yiwei has also got the news. Soon, Sheng Yuanbai will know and he will not let this opportunity pass."
Shen Qingyun said humbly: "Sheng Yuanbai may be amazed at the smoothness of the plan, but he will not think that we are behind the scenes. Next, it depends on the methods of Qi Bu Cha Zi."
"Is it too risky for you to do this?"
Shen Qingyun sneered: "As long as the British public's elite troops are in place, he, Sheng Yuanbai, can use this trick, and so can we."
"I hope everything goes as you wish."
"It will be as I wish."
