Chapter 699 Eunuch Gao’s Suggestion
The prince lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then glanced at Shen Yi.

"You don't tell the truth to anyone."

Master Shen showed a smile on his face, and said, "I'd like to talk about things in Guangdong, but I'm afraid your son won't listen."

Hearing this sentence, Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, he shook his head, and said: "Then I really don't want to listen."

He stood up and stretched his waist: "But no matter what, I have come back. During this time, I have developed a lot of delicious food in Fuzhou. Today I am the host. Please have a good meal." , catch the wind for you."

Shen Yi also stood up, first nodded with a smile, and then asked: "By the way, how does the prince know that I am back today?"

The news of Shen Yi secretly returning to Fuzhou did not inform anyone in advance, whether it was the Fujian government or Fuzhou Wei, Shen Yi did not inform. He planned to rest in Xingyuan for a few days before going to deal with people in Fuzhou.

Li Mu smiled.

"Who else do you want to hide from your itinerary? You have traveled from Guangdong to Fujian for more than a month. Many people have received the news and are all staring at Xingyuan."

Shen Yi shook his head slightly.

He didn't drink so much before. In the past, when Shen Yi drank with others, even with Zhang Jian, he would only get four or five points drunk at most. With other people who were not familiar with him, he could handle it as soon as he could. .

After seeing Shen Yi, the man immediately bent down, bowed his head respectfully and said, "Scholar Shen."

Master Shen opened his eyes, looked back at Ye Chan, and let out another mouthful of alcohol.

"Speaking of which, I'm really curious about what happened to you in Guangdong."

"It's going well."

Master Shen smiled in relief, and said, "Let's go eat first."

The big eunuch in the palace should be trying to persuade the fight...

Shen Yi laughed dumbfounded.

"If we continue to operate like this, as long as we are big enough, we will naturally not have to worry about making money in the future."

After Ye Chan pressed Hui's temples, she squeezed Shen Yi's shoulders again, and said softly, "Your errand in Guangdong is not going well?"

"I haven't been in Fuzhou for the past two months, what about the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce?"

Shen Yi blinked.

Shen Yi stood up by himself, and with Ye Chan's support, he sat on the edge of the bed. He glanced at Ye Chan and asked, "Miss Chan'er staying here tonight?"

Ye Chan smelled the strong smell of alcohol on Shen Yi's body, she sighed slightly, walked to Shen Yi's side, and pulled Shen Yi's sleeve: "My lord, you drank too much."

But Ling Su hadn't waited yet, but Shen Yi had waited for another guest.

Ye Chan's face turned red immediately.

She moved a stool, sat in front of Shen Yi, stared at the young imperial envoy in front of her by candlelight, and said softly: "The concubine will be more stupid after she is born."

Master Shen glanced at Li Mu, and said helplessly: "It turns out that the son knew that I was coming back, and he just pretended to be surprised."

After Shen Yi took his seat, he motioned for Sun Jin to also sit down and talk. After Sun Jin also sat down, Master Shen thought for a while and asked, "How is the situation in Quanzhou Prefecture? Is the Shibo Department going well?"

"Everything is going well. Quanzhou's Shipbuilding Department has basically been completed and will be up and running soon."

Originally, I should go to Fuzhou Wei to take a look, but Fuzhou Wei is in Langqi Island, too far away from Fuzhou City. Master Shen is not very motivated now, so he didn't leave for Langqi Island, but sent someone to inform Ling Su, let him Come into town and see yourself.

This person is none other than Sun Jin, the eunuch in purple.

Ye Chan supported Shen Yi, and said softly, "I'll help you to bed and rest."

After Sun Jin took a sip of water, he looked up at Shen Yi, and sighed slightly: "Half a month ago, our family received an order from Eunuch Gao in the palace to leave immediately after finishing the affairs of the Quanzhou Shipping Department. Go to the Guangzhou government and establish the Guangzhou Shipping Department."

Miss Ye lowered her head, her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "The weather is getting cold..."

The bedroom was lit, and a tall woman in a light yellow dress was making the bed in this bedroom.

"Our family came here specifically to see Bachelor Shen."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Shen Yi, and then slowly said: "Scholar Shen, Eunuch Gao ordered our family to take Bachelor Shen to the south of Guangdong as much as possible."

Shen Yi heard the words thoughtfully, and looked at the floor of this bedroom.

Ye Chan asked softly: "Don't you want me to be smart, my lord?"

"you are so brilliant."

"The matter in Guangdong has almost been finalized. It is of little use for anyone to go now."

Ye Chan had just made the bed, she walked behind Shen Yi, rubbed Shen Yi's temples gently with her hands, then smiled and said: "Someone who has more powers may know your whereabouts, my lord. The concubine is different. This concubine bribed one of Xingyuan's servants to know that the young master is back."

Sun Jin looked at Shen Yi and sighed: "Because of this, our family is going to Guangzhou Mansion."

The main reason is that the authority in his hands is too great, and it is difficult to not attract attention.

At this time, Shen Yi was six to seven points drunk.

With Jiang Sheng's support, Master Shen wandered into his bedroom.

Master Shen looked back and found that Jiang Sheng did not follow in. He supported the door frame with his hands and sat down on the chair in this bedroom. After breathing out a mouthful of alcohol, Shen Yi laughed at himself: "It seems that my whereabouts , It’s really not a secret, even Miss Chan’er knows that I’m back to Fuzhou today.”

Shen Yi cupped his hands to return the salute, and said with a smile, "Why is Eunuch Sun here? Where did you come from?"

………………

Li Mu smiled and said, "I just don't know why you came back and whether you really want to come back."

Sun Jin lowered his head slightly and said, "Scholar Shen, I come from Quanzhou Prefecture."

"Ah."

However, there is still a certain distance between Langqi Island and Fuzhou City, and it will take time to go back and forth. Shen Yi can only wait patiently at home for Ling Su to visit.

Hearing Sun Jin's words, Shen Yi understood what he meant.

"I knew you were coming back."

Because there is no floor covering on the floor.

"Eunuch Sun, if I remember correctly, if Quanzhou Prefecture wants to go to Guangdong, it seems that it should go south instead of going north to Fuzhou."

Ye Chan said softly: "In addition to the fifteen families that the young master took over at the beginning, there are already some other Fuzhou merchants who want to join the Fuzhou chamber of commerce."

"I'm afraid of the cold..."

"Let's tell the prince again when we have a chance."

During these three days, he spent most of his time in the apricot garden, and only took one day to meet Cheng Tingzhi at the Governor's Yamen.

Sun Jin lowered his head slightly and said, "Eunuch Gao said that as long as Bachelor Shen goes back to Guangdong, no matter who he meets after returning to Jiankang this year, he will be easy to talk to."

In other words, there is only one bedding left for two people.

He is now a public figure.

Just like that, Shen Yi went out with Li Mu, and the two of them had a meal at a well-known restaurant in Fuzhou. darkened.

In a blink of an eye, Shen Yi had been back to Fuzhou for three days.

"The things in Quanzhou have been delayed a bit. Hurry up, and finally all the things that should be busy are done. A few days ago, our family was preparing to go to Guangzhou Mansion, and suddenly received a letter from Eunuch Gao."

The guest was fair-skinned and dressed in an ordinary robe. When he arrived at the gate of Xingyuan, he was quickly invited in by Jiang Sheng, and then met Shen Yi in the living room of Xingyuan.

"It's fine."

He wanted to reconcile the little friction between Shen Yi and the emperor.

Shen Yi closed his eyes, enjoying the service of the young lady of the Ye family, and stopped talking.

Ye Chan lowered her head slightly, and bit her lips: "Other people in the chamber of commerce probably also know that the young master is back, so it would be better for me to stay here tonight."

Master Shen shook his head slightly: "It's not in the way."

Shen Yi let out a "huh".

Well…

It's time to apply.

Master Shen shook his head slightly, rejecting the proposal.

However, during this period of time, he was indeed a little unhappy, and he just took advantage of this drink to dissipate his depression.

"I went there, and it didn't help the matter..."

"still…"

Shen Yi looked calm.

"It's better not to go."
