When Li Wanyun heard that he was coming, he came out without changing his clothes and laughed loudly, "Xiao Chen, why are you still here?"
"I knew that the prince was coming, so I came here specifically to visit him. He has never been seen, but I was thinking a lot about him." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Don't fool me with your obedient words! If you really miss me, why don't you go to Jiangnan to see me?" Li Wanyun personally helped him up, took his hand and walked inside.
"I would like to go, but I don't dare to go." Xiao Chen looked around and laughed softly.
"Hahaha, you kid, you are full of evil thoughts." Li Wanyun said with a smile, "Look who is here?" He pointed towards the inner room.
Duanmu Nanfeng walked out with a smile, "Master Xiao, I was just about to go to Yanyun County to find you, but unexpectedly you came here? Why are you afraid that I will go to Yanyun County to drink your wine?"
Xiao Chenxin said, damn, you two, why don't you two keep a low profile?
See how casually Nanfeng is dressed, he is openly living in your palace.
"Uncle Guo, are you kidding me? If you are willing to go, you will be putting gold on my face, Xiao Chen!" Xiao Chen couldn't teach him a lesson in front of Li Wanyun.
"Haha, my sister is gone, and I am no longer an uncle. I am just an ordinary businessman now. Even an ordinary businessman may not be able to hold on to this job." Duanmu Nanfeng smiled meaningfully.
In fact, after Duanmu Nanqiao's death, Duanmu Nanfeng's status plummeted, and the attitudes of both high-ranking officials and local officials changed very obviously.
Normally, the Governor of Jiangnan County would visit his uncle's house every three days, but since the death of the imperial concubine, he has not visited once.
In the past, the entrance to Guojiu's Mansion was bustling with traffic almost every day, but now it was deserted. This is called the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and the harshness of the world!
Li Wanjiang's attitude towards Nanfeng has gradually become colder. Usually when Duanmu Nanfeng comes to Beijing, Li Wanjiang will summon him immediately as soon as he hands in the notice, no matter morning or evening. However, this time Nanfeng has been here for many days, and Li Wanjiang still doesn't respond.
Didn't see him.
This is actually a very bad sign. Perhaps it is because Duanmu Nanfeng has earned too much money over the years, and Li Wanjiang needs money very much now, so he is ready to kill the goose to get the egg, and hide the bird after all...
Before, it was difficult to take action because of Duanmu Nanqiao's identity as the imperial concubine. Now that Duanmu Nanqiao is dead, Li Wanjiang has nothing to worry about. After all, he feels that he has a stable foothold in Jiangnan County and does not need the Duanmu Family as a sign.
Come to help him make money.
Duanmu Nanfeng realized the danger and asked Xiao Chen what to do?
If it really doesn't work, I will sell all my property and go to Yanyun County to join Brother Xiao. Anyway, my sister is not in the palace now, so what should I worry about?
After discussing with Chen Jisheng and others, Xiao Chen felt that the current situation was not so serious. Even if Li Wanjiang wanted to annex Duanmu's property, he would not use extreme measures. He would probably have to take it step by step and boil his little frog with a slow fire.
After all, the Duanmu family still has a very important position in all walks of life in Jiangnan and among merchants all over the world. In addition, there are many families in Jiangnan and Jiangdong who are in a similar situation to the Duanmu family. If Duanmu Nanfeng is directly affected, then these families will all be panicked.
Yes, this is obviously extremely detrimental to the local economy.
So they decided to let Duanmu Nanfeng take the initiative and use the excuse of illness to test Li Wanjiang's attitude before making a decision.
Because Duanmu Nanfeng plays an important role in Jiangnan, without him, Yanyun's trade with Jiangnan would be greatly affected.
In addition, Xiao Chen feels that Li Wanjiang may not necessarily touch Nanfeng, because now Li Wanyun has stationed in Jiangnan, and the relationship between Li Wanyun and Duanmu Nanfeng is quite close, so with Li Wanyun as a big backer, Li Wanjiang wants to
If you want to move the south wind, you will inevitably use a rat weapon.
Sure enough, Li Wanyun spoke up, "Nanfeng, you don't have to say these depressing words. With me in Jiangnan, who dares to touch your job? Besides, you have such a good relationship with Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen can't say a few nice words for you in front of the emperor."
?The weight of what he says now is heavier than that of this king.".??m
"Oh, Your Majesty, please don't make such a joke, it will kill me!" Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Hahaha, you, Xiao Chen, are so brave, are you still afraid of this? Quickly change your clothes, sit down and let the three of us have a drink! You said the same thing for your kid. Inventing this heating system is really unscrupulous. The room is even worse than ours in Jiangnan.
It's so hot that the people living there are so anxious!" Li Wanyun said.
"That means you are in good health, Your Majesty." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "If that's the case, I might as well take back the ten century-old wild ginseng trees I brought. Otherwise, Your Majesty, you will get angry after eating them, and I won't do it well.
Something bad happened?"
"You've really made a fortune, kid. You can give away ten of these rare treasures like century-old wild ginseng. Is it real or fake? Don't fool me, kid?" Li Wanyun was obviously in a good mood, with a smile on his face.
He always smiles, probably this is also due to the power of love...
"I don't dare to fool anyone, Your Majesty. Seeing you in such good health makes me really happy. But I really don't dare to accept the Prince's wine today. I have to go to Jiangdong Prince's Mansion later to be rejected.
." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Oh? How can you, a dignified first-grade eunuch and a second-grade border official, be rejected in Fengyang Mansion?" Li Wanyun was slightly startled, and then started laughing again.
"Prince Jiangdong is in charge of various ministries and is very busy with affairs. How can you be so carefree and at ease like you, my lord?" Xiao Chen's words actually have a profound meaning.
"Sigh... I want to be free, but I'm afraid I won't be able to be free in this life." Li Wanyun sighed, suddenly feeling bleak.
Xiao Chen drank a few cups of tea, then stood up and said goodbye, making an appointment with Li Wanyun to meet another day. Anyway, I have to stay in Fengyang City for a while, and there is always time to listen to the prince's teachings.
Li Wanyun did not force him to stay and asked Duanmu Nanfeng to see Xiao Chen off instead.
Xiao Chen changed his face as soon as he left the house, "How old are you, how can you still be so ignorant? I don't object to your friendship with Li Wanyun, but how can you be so blatant? This is Fengyang City, but it's not
You Jiangnan County!"
"Oh, I don't want to, but the prince insists on me living here. He said that everyone should know that we are in love. Who will dare to despise me in the future? He actually has a stubborn temper, and I can't defeat him.
Yeah." Duanmu Nanfeng explained with a blushing face.
"Humph, I see you can't live without him, right?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"There are only three people in this world who truly love me and treat me sincerely. One is my sister, one is Brother Xiao, and the other one is him..." Duanmu Nanfeng said, "You are also my Nanfeng here.
The person I love most in the world." Duanmu Nanfeng made no secret of his love for Li Wanyun, and it seemed that they were in love with each other.
Although this kind of love is not tolerated by the world, who says you can't love deeply?
