Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 156 Shrewd Master Master

"A liar?" Shen Cha looked at Yan Bo curiously, "Isn't Erhutang a gangster? How come he's a liar again?"

"That's right." Shen Haolin also nodded, "Isn't the Erhu Hall under the jurisdiction of the Liao royal family? Could this rumor be a lie?"

"It's a Jianghu sect, backed by the Liao royal family, but its reputation is not very good. It specializes in deceitful things. Xia, Liao, and Jin were framed by them, and there are not a few. There are many people who hate them. "Yan Bo thanked the plum and bamboo who poured him tea, and continued, "Actually, the Erhutang has not been established for many years, and it took about [-] years to complete it." He turned his head and looked at Qin Zheng, " We have only been in Jiaping Guancheng for a few years before this sect was established, isn’t it?”

"That's right!" Qin Zheng nodded, "I still have a certain understanding of this sect. I know the first owner of Erhutang, and we have a good friendship. When I was at home, I also had business contacts. His name is Yeluzi, and according to his seniority, he should be Yelu Zongcheng's young grandfather."

"Little grandpa?" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha glanced at each other, "Aren't you very old?"

"He's just older, not that old. He's the same age as me and Xiaofeng." Qin Zheng picked up a piece of mung bean cake, took a bite, and said, "When I met Yeluzi, I hadn't joined the army yet. Hutang has not yet been established. Our family was mainly engaged in the silk business. Although the shop is very large, we never deceive customers and treat everyone the same. Therefore, merchants from the Liao and Jin countries like to follow Our family deals and thinks we're not going to charge high prices or shoddy."

"It seems that those merchants from Liao and Jin have suffered from other people's homes, otherwise they would not have such concerns." Shen Haolin nodded, "Although Xia, Liao, and Jin often fight, wars are wars, and business is Business, business still has to keep promises.”

"Haolin is right. If a businessman doesn't keep his promise, he will spend all day thinking about how to deceive people. Sooner or later, this business will be ruined." Qin Zheng gave Shen Haolin an approving look, "This Yeluzi was I came here to order silk for the royal family of the Liao Dynasty. The two of us have been in contact for a while, and we feel that we are very close and have a good chat. He is very different from the general Liao people, or the general children of the Liao clan. The big difference is that this person is very casual, and he does whatever he wants. Originally, the Liao king's throne was likely to fall on his head, but he voluntarily refused, saying that he had no such idea at all. He likes to be outside The vast world, like dealing with all kinds of people outside, like the feeling of conquering opponents in the process of doing business, what he dislikes and hates the most is the dull atmosphere of the palace and the intrigue in the court. Such a life will make him Crazy because I can't see the future, I can't see hope."

"This statement..." Shen Haolin and Shen Cha exchanged glances, "It sounds familiar."

"You have heard of it too? Probably not!" Qin Zheng said with some nostalgia, "I was very young back then, and I was very surprised to hear someone say such a thing for the first time. In fact, I should also be good. Thank you, if it weren't for him, I might not have thought of coming to the border to join the army."

"Master, is this old Mr. Yeluzi still alive?"

"He passed away 12 years ago. If he was still alive, Erhutang would not become a gathering place for charlatans." Qin Zheng looked at Shen Cha, "Why, are you interested in him?"

"It's not that I'm interested in him. If Your Majesty knows about this person, he will definitely be very interested." Shen Cha chuckled, "If this old gentleman is still alive, he should be able to become a bosom friend and a friend with His Majesty. I am such a person who yearns for freedom very much, so we will definitely be able to talk, maybe, because of the existence of the two of them, Xia and Liao will have good relations and will never go to war!"

"Cha'er is right, but it's a pity that the old man has passed away. Song Jue will definitely feel sorry if he finds out." Shen Haolin rubbed his chin and gave a smirk, "Otherwise, I'd call this old Yelu Write down the story of Mister and send someone to Xijing? Also let him know that he is not the only one in this world, there are people like him, so that he will not keep saying that no one understands him!"

"Your Majesty will hate you, brother!" Shen Cha patted Shen Haolin on the shoulder, "Let's forget about such things that we can't ask for. After we return to Beijing, if we have the opportunity, we can talk to him face to face. Wouldn't it be great to see His Majesty's remorseful expression with his own eyes?"

"This idea is good, I like it very much!" Shen Haolin touched Shen Cha's head and asked curiously, "Cha'er, Song Jue...Did I offend you? You have to use this method to deal with him."

"It's not rude to come here." Shen Cha raised her eyebrows, "Could it be that he is only allowed to sneak out of the capital to make us worry about him thousands of miles away, and not allow us to take revenge?" She turned towards being pressed by Hongye. Xue Ruitian, who was scratching his armpit on the ground, shouted, "Brother Xiaotian, what do you think?"

"Xiaocha is doing well, I support you!" Xue Ruitian waved his hand carelessly, "That kid Song Jue knew he was in the wrong, so he definitely wouldn't say anything, he would just bear it silently, let alone..." He paused for a while , snorted coldly, "That kid has evil intentions, she is willing to torment Xiaocha no matter what, so don't have any burden." He looked at Qin Zheng, "Uncle, please tell me about that old Yelu Let’s go into more detail about your husband, after we remember it, we’ll go back to Beijing to anger that bastard Song Jue!”

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor, who was far away in the Xijing Imperial Palace, sneezed seven times in a row, causing the servant next to him to plop down to his knees in fright.Song Jue waved at him, motioning him to stand up, took a handkerchief and wiped his nose, thinking silently in his heart, did he accidentally do something hateful recently, and someone scolded him behind his back? !

Qin Zheng looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha who were looking at each other with a smirk, and looked at Xue Ruitian who was starting to scratch Hongye, and sighed helplessly, the young emperor did not leave, and these young courtiers also did not leave, sarcasm, Sarcastic about His Majesty, each mouth is more ruthless than the other, this is probably because the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.However, it is much better for the monarch and ministers to be in harmony, to understand and support each other than to be suspicious and wary of each other.

"Wait a minute!" Qin Zheng looked at his little apprentice, "What did Xiaotian mean by that sentence just now? Your Majesty, he...to Xiaocha..."

"Master, this is all guesswork by brother and Xiaotian, you don't have to worry about it." Shen Cha felt a little guilty, "Your Majesty has never expressed that he has such thoughts, so please don't take it to heart."

"None is the best!" Qin Zheng looked at Shen Cha seriously, then at Shen Haolin, "Master Guo, you are the head of the house, and you have the right to make decisions about your sister. But , you have to keep in mind that people from the Shen family are absolutely not allowed to enter the palace, this is not what I said or your father said, but the rules set down by your ancestors of the Shen family."

"Uncle, my nephew understands." Shen Haolin nodded solemnly, "I asked about Cha'er, she didn't feel that way towards His Majesty, she just regarded her as a confidant and friend, and she herself would not enter the palace As for Your Majesty...Don't worry, Uncle, his main goal now is how to get out of the palace, and it would be even better if he could find someone reliable to take over the throne. "

"It's good that you know it in your heart!" Qin Zheng let out a long breath, "A place like the imperial palace is not suitable for people like us."

Shen Cha nodded obediently, and echoed repeatedly, saying that such a thing would never happen to him. Seeing that her attitude was so determined, Qin Zheng let her go and never mentioned it again.

Yan Bo, who had been keeping silent all this time, looked at these children and secretly laughed in his heart. The level of these little guys' nonsense with their eyes open is getting higher and higher.

The children who survived the catastrophe were slightly relieved, Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian secretly rejoiced in their hearts, besides the two obstacles in the way of Song Jue's relationship, there was another insurmountable obstacle, which was this shrewd Master Master.With Qin Zheng, it is impossible for Song Jue to get his wish. This is a great thing for them!

"Flip this matter and continue talking about Yeluzi, where did I say it just now?"

"He said he gave you the inspiration to come to the border to join the army." Yan Bo ate two pieces of mung bean cake, took a plate of melon seeds and put it in front of him, "However, as the Yelu clan, how could he have a quack sect?" What about it? It’s also named Erhutang, which sounds like it’s not very intelligent.”

"Is it because the sect uses the tiger as a symbol?"

"Erhutang is because when Yeluzi was young, he raised two cubs. These two tigers accompanied him all his life and were his best friends. He used them as the name of this sect. The first time he passed away For three days, these two tigers also went with them." Qin Zheng snatched a handful of melon seeds from Yan Bo, and said while nibbling, "Yeluzi's status in the Yelu clan is relatively high, and he is basically his junior. He always puts on a very respectful look when they meet, which makes him very uncomfortable, so he simply ran out and set up a Jianghu sect by himself."

"It is because Yeluzi belongs to the royal family of the Liao Dynasty that there are rumors that Erhutang is under the jurisdiction of the royal family of the Liao Dynasty."

"It's not a rumor, it's a fact. It's just that it only came about after Yeluzi passed away." Qin Zheng took a sip of tea and explained, "At first it was a pure Jianghu sect, and later it evolved into what Xiaofeng said. The liar sect was entirely due to Yeluzi's momentary mistake. He misread and chose the wrong heir, which pushed Erhutang to the present situation where it is beyond redemption."
