Cui Jiujin went to the palace and handed over his hands and reported: "Ask the Zhao Jun envoy, the court has posted a notice saying that the Queen Mother has just passed away due to illness."

"Oh." Zhao Kuangyin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but Xu Xian clearly saw some subtle disappointment in his eyes, "Let's go down."

"Wait a minute!" Xu Xian stopped Cui Jiu, "Is there any official business that I need to handle today?"

Cui Jiu heard the words and said with a smile: "Du Tou is joking. If you have any official business, you should ask your superior. Why would you ask this subordinate? But there are some things that need to be decided by the military envoy and Du Tou."

He took out a stack of invitations from his sleeves and said, "These invitations are sent by some shopkeepers and meeting leaders in Kaifeng City. They are all well-known people in Kaifeng market. It is up to two Shangguan to decide whether to go or not."

Zhao Kuangyin chuckled and said: "When did my little Ma Zhijun envoy become so popular? They are not afraid of offending the people who command the envoys of the Ma Bu Army."

"The military envoy has been in Chanzhou for a long time and may not be aware of it. His Majesty has been strictly restrained since he ascended the throne. The soldiers guarding the Ma Bu Army no longer dare to make money in the Chang'an Market. Now you are the leading figure in the Kaifeng Market."

Xu Xian pointed to his nose and asked: "Then how much weight does my words have in Kaifeng Market? Would it be useful if I publicly promised a section of the market to a gang to use as territory?"

Cui Jiu looked at Zhao Kuangyin and said, "As long as the military envoy Zhao does not object, it will naturally be useful."

Xu Xian slapped his thigh and cursed in his heart: "Let that three-petaled Mr. Rabbit make a lot of money!"

Zhao Kuangyin had neither the interest nor the energy to deal with people in the market, so he handed the matter over to Xu Xian and told him not to accept bribes.

How could Xu Xian take that little bit of money seriously? He is not a pure official. If he makes more connections now, it should not be harmful to his business in the future.

Chai Rong, the governor of Kaifeng, was very incompetent. He had never sat in the office for a day since he took office. Daily affairs were taken care of by his assistants. No one arranged errands for Xu Xian, so he just wandered around in the office.

"Xu Dutou!"

Hearing someone calling him, Xu Xian turned around and saw Fu's personal maid slowly walking over. Xu Xian smiled and asked, "What's the matter with Sister Yulian looking for Xiaoke?"

The maid spat: "Whoever is your sister will speak glibly without any benefit."

"Affordable? Yes, yes!" Xu Xian took out a finely crafted silver hairpin from his arms, "Please accept it, sister!"

Whether Xu Xian and Fu Liying can succeed or not will most likely fall on Mrs. Fu. Although this little hooves is just a maid, she has a great influence on Mrs. Fu, and she has to pour some ecstasy soup into her.

"I bet you are interested!" The maid took the hairpin and hurriedly stuffed it into her sleeve, "If you'd like to bother me, follow me to the back office. Madam has something to tell you."

"Sister, can you tell me what it is so that I can be mentally prepared."

"Don't talk too much, just come!"

The maid took Xu Xian into the back office, and went straight to the reception hall. Mrs. Fu was sitting on the table drinking tea, and Xu Xian stepped forward to greet the guests.

Mrs. Fu put down her tea bowl and said, "The greenery on the snow top is really good!"

I don’t know what she means. Could it be that she wants to imitate Feng Dao and live for free? But now that the entire tea-frying business is in your hands, your man is still short of tea. Could it be that he is still thinking about his 10% share with Lao Zhang?

This is too greedy.

"What are you thinking about?" Mrs. Fu looked at Xu Xian and said softly: "I already know what happened in the palace. Your Highness has always been clear about rewards and punishments. It's just that you are still young and it's hard to entrust you with important responsibilities. Just

Work steadily beside His Highness, and what is yours will eventually be yours."

Xu Xian cupped his hands and replied: "Princess, you know what Xiao Ke cares about more."

"Only those who have no future will worry about the love of their children all day long." Mrs. Fu's voice changed, "But it's easy to find priceless treasures, but it's hard to find a lover. Finally, Liying has a good eye and knows people. She didn't worry about you in vain. I'll give you half a stick of incense."

We spend some time talking to each other and leave as soon as we finish talking."

As she said this, she got up and left through the back door, but a person appeared from behind the screen in the hall. When he saw her appearance clearly, Xu Xian couldn't help but feel his heart tremble.

After not seeing each other for just a few months, Fu Liying had already lost a lot of weight, and her originally plump and soft cheeks had sunken down. Tears flashed in her beautiful eyes, but they stubbornly refused to fall, making her look more pitiful than before.

Fu Liying blinked, the tears in her eyes dissipated, she smiled and bowed her head, "Long time no see, is Xu Dou okay?"

At this moment, Xu Xian suddenly thought of a widely circulated saying in later generations, "You have been a scumbag to many people, and one day you meet someone you particularly like, and you will know that your retribution has come."

In her previous life, Xu Xian had never cheated on anyone, and only had two slightly sloppy romances. Therefore, Fu Liying was not his retribution, but this woman who looked at him all over the place must be a fate that was difficult to escape in this life.

He took a step forward and cupped his hands and replied: "Xu is very good, but I'm worried about you. It's really Xu's fault."

Fu Liying shook her head and said: "Liying is willing to do it, so don't worry about it."

"The little lady seems to have lost a lot of money. In the past few months, she must have a deep understanding of a line of music that Xu wrote before."

"What sentence did Dutou say?"

Xu Xian smiled and said: "It's the last song that makes people feel haggard for Yi."

Fu Liying's face turned slightly red when she heard this, and then she said angrily: "Liying has been having trouble sleeping and eating for several months, and Dutou actually teased Liying. It's really heartless."

"Don't be upset, little lady. Please sit down and let Xu pour tea to apologize." Xu Xian casually took the teapot on the case and said, "There is still a lot left. It should be specially kept by the princess."

"That's what Sixth Sister left for me. It's not your share. You just pour tea and water."

…

Two people who care about each other don't need too many gorgeous words to express their feelings. Just a look and an action are enough to understand each other's feelings.

The two of them drank tea and chatted, talking about interesting things they had seen recently. Time passed very quickly, and by the time the tea was finished, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

Fu Liying put down her tea bowl and said, "It's long past the time for half a stick of incense. It's better to go back to the front office and don't embarrass my sister."

Xu Xian nodded and said, "Xu will come to the palace to visit the young lady another day."

Before Fu Liying could speak, she suddenly remembered two soft coughs at the back door, and she could guess with her toes that it was Princess Jin who was listening to the wall.

Xu Xian stretched out his hand to wipe the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and said in a feigned way: "Fortunately, Xu was too passionate and didn't do anything excessive. Otherwise, his legs would have been broken and he would have been thrown out of the government office."
