Waiting outside the study was an old servant who had served Mr. Tian all his life. As soon as he saw Tian Lanqing's arrival, he immediately turned back to the room to announce it.
Tian Lanqing stood outside the house and waited for a moment, then the old servant came out, bowed and invited Tian Lanqing in.
Mr. Tian was drawing flowers and birds according to the album at the moment. He felt that the thrush's mouth he had drawn was not right, and he frowned and squinted at it.
"Lan Qing? Why are you here now? What's the matter?"
Tian Lanqing walked up to Mr. Tian and placed the letter in his hand in front of Tian Lanqing: "Dad, if my son guessed correctly, the Yu family may have taken refuge with Master Mo."
Mr. Tian's hand paused slightly, then he put the pen in his hand on the pen holder and raised his head to look at Tian Lanqing.
"Speak slowly."
Tian Lanqing gently pushed the letter on the table in the direction of Mr. Tian, and then spoke.
"Lan Guang discovered new wines in Jiangnan, and most of them are new wines from our winery that have not yet been released on the market. He inquired about the fact that these wines have been very popular in Jiangnan recently, and the people who supply these wines to various restaurants and inns
, is a new winery. The boss behind these wineries is said to be named Zhou Rong."
When Mr. Tian heard this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Tian Lanqing.
"Zhou Rong?"
"Dad, do you remember it too?" Tian Lanqing tapped her fingers lightly on the letter: "This Zhou Rong, if I remember correctly, should be the younger brother of one of my uncle's concubines."
Tian Lanqing has a photographic memory and an astonishingly good memory. Others may not be able to remember such a small relative, but Tian Lanqing will never forget.
Tian Lanqing's aunt, Mrs. Tian's sister, is the principal wife of the Yu family. There is only one legitimate daughter in the Yu family, and that is Yu Tingxiang, who has a somewhat bad temper. In addition to Tian Lanqing's aunt, who is the principal wife
, Tian Lanqing's uncle also has a concubine. This concubine's family is also in business, and her surname is Zhou.
"Why does your uncle's matter have anything to do with Master Mo?"
Tian Lanqing sighed slightly: "The new wine from our winery has only been used once by the Emperor and Queen Mother, and has never appeared on the market. And these wines were paid tribute in large quantities, and now 10% of the wine produced is in the palace.
Except for those who can enter and exit the palace, it is impossible for anyone else to have access to these wines. Naturally, it is impossible for the royal family to covet these petty profits, so the only person who is most likely to come into contact with these wines is the abbot, Grand Master Mo."
Mr. Tian nodded: "If Master Mo wants to make friends with our Tian family, there are some reasons, but your uncle's family..."
"Father, do you still remember what my uncle's business is?"
"...Water transportation."
Mr. Tian softly uttered these two words, and then he was shocked: "I see! If Master Mo wants to make friends with our family, he can use his concubine as a means of making friends, but your uncle's family only has one legitimate daughter.
——That’s your cousin Yu Tingxiang. If Master Mo wants to control the water transportation and befriend your uncle, he must do what he likes and please his favorite concubine!"
Tian Lanqing nodded: "So, he found a business for his uncle's concubine's family and won over his uncle in disguise."
As soon as these words fell, the study gradually became quiet.
"What exactly does Grand Master Mo want to do, to win over civilian forces in such a big way..."
Tian Lanqing shook her head slightly, and then sighed: "If this happens, our family will have to guard against my uncle's family in the future."
Mr. Tian gently patted Tian Lanqing on the shoulder: "If you don't agree, don't work together. Besides, the power of your uncle's family is probably not something to be afraid of."
