Chapter 189 Gold
The Xie family was once the richest family in Jiangnan. It was said that they controlled overseas shipping routes and were as rich as a country. However, after Shu Yan and Chen Shengzhi took control of Jiangnan, they allowed merchants to sail freely, which caused the Xie family to lose the way to make money through overseas business.

So according to common sense, Queen Xie should be very disgusted with Shu Yan.

The last time they met, this guy gave her a warning.

But now he is trying to show his goodwill to her. Could it be that he is being restrained by someone in the palace?

Thinking of this, Shu Yan smiled and said, "Now we have someone in the court. Sui Ying, are you going back this time?"

Sui Ying shook her head.

"The teacher asked me to stay here and help supervise."

Cheng San was delighted when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Finally, we have one more person who can speak eloquently in our army."

Sui Ying glanced at Cheng San and actually learned Shu Yan's skill of smiling with both lips and eyes.

Chen Yunzhong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "If we have more people to help us, we will always have a better chance of winning."

Chen Yun finally said such sensible words, which surprised Shu Yan.

This child has finally grown up a little.

After seven or eight days, Shu Yan's letter finally arrived in Taiyuan.

Chen Yunqing held the letter in his hand and knocked on his father's door.

The eldest princess left and her mother defected, so this huge mansion seemed a bit deserted.

He has always been a steady person, but after seeing all this, he could not remain calm. Although the King of Han was seriously injured, Linxun was already showing signs of regaining his power.

And now, my father seems a little discouraged.

How can a person who wants to be an emperor show such discouragement?

Chen Yunqing was about to enter his father's Tingyu Pavilion, but saw Chen Yunli, with a gloomy face, blocking the door. His mental state seemed to be getting worse and worse.

Chen Yunqing narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Fourth brother, what are you doing?"

Chen Yunli sneered.

"Father has already agreed to let me attack Jiangnan, and you are interfering there. Are you afraid that I will steal your credit and take your position as crown prince?"

Chen Yunqing sneered when he heard this. He restrained the gentleness and courtesy on his face and revealed an extremely cold expression.

"Fourth brother, are you worthy?"

Chen Yunqing pushed Chen Yunli aside and walked into the pavilion.

Chen Shengzhi was sipping tea, and sandalwood with a very special smell was burning in the room. After Chen Yunqing bowed, he spread out the letter sent by Shu Yan.

"Father, mother has replied."

Chen Shengzhi paused, then took the letter and read it carefully for a long time, so long that Chen Yunqing became a little scared.

"Father……"

Chen Shengzhi placed the letter on the flame. His originally slightly depressed expression suddenly became more lively. He smiled and said, "Your mother actually wants to fight for it."

Chen Yunqing was surprised.

"I heard that Yu'an no longer trusts her. How can she fight for it?"

Chen Shengzhi sat up, walked to the window, and looked at the lush green banana tree.

"She said she wanted to fight for herself."

Just as Chen Yunqing was about to speak, the old housekeeper came in from outside in a hurry. After seeing the two of them, he hurriedly said, "Prince Regent, there is news from the Ministry of War that the King of Han has already sent troops to occupy Jiangnan for a while." Chen Shengzhi sneered, "Now that the autumn harvest is over, the Han army is fat and strong, it is normal for him to send troops. Is there any news from Xiliang?"

The old butler continued: "Linxun, he led his troops to the southwest..."

The King of Xiliang has now defeated the Rouran people in the west and occupied a large piece of land and pasture for raising horses.

I heard that he sold several thousand good horses to the King of Han. After the King of Han occupied the capital some time ago, he was attacked from all sides and lost a lot of soldiers and generals. After a year of recuperation, he has recovered some strength.

Now, among these forces.

Apart from Li Yu'an, who had a righteous position, Chen Shengzhi's power was the weakest.

Above Lijiang, Linxun was wearing soft armor, his body had mostly recovered, his eyes were extremely dark, and Qili and Qiu Shijie stood beside him.

Last time, Qiu Shijie was tricked by Shu Yan and broke his leg while trying to escape.

Lin Xun glanced at Qiu Shijie and whispered, "Military Advisor, are you really going to recruit Wang Shuyan this time? Aren't you afraid that Su Ranqing will turn against you?"

Qiu Shijie smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Su Ranqing is eager to send him away. How could he not be willing to do so? He is afraid that Wang Shuyan will take his place."

Qixiu lowered her head, afraid of being picked up.

But Linxun directly mentioned Qixiu.

"Xiu'er, your Yang Family Army is now somewhat organized. I heard that you have had some contact with Bai Guichen. What's the matter?"

Qixiu quickly knelt on the ground and said, "I am just worried about my godmother's safety. She saved me without caring about her own safety. I have always kept her in my heart."

Lin Xun touched his chin.

"She saved me back then, too. Well, go to that little place and see her."

Qixiu hurriedly retreated. She left the cabin and went to the deck. She was a little surprised to see Huang Yuwei supporting Xu Yuan. After all, she had been recuperating outside since the Battle of Pingqiu.

Why are you all here today?
Xu Yuan smiled and said, "It's a rare guest. That bitch Wang Shuyan has already obtained one of the White Lotus Relics. She chose Shengyuan. I'm afraid she found the money. If it falls into her hands, she will find a place to recruit soldiers and horses. I'm afraid she will become a big worry for the prince."

Qixiu's eyelids twitched.

"Are you talking about the treasure left behind by the White Lotus Mother?"

The White Lotus Sect was rampant in Dayin for more than twenty years, during which time they amassed countless wealth, which was said to have been hidden in one place.

The bead that Shu Yan obtained from the White Lotus Mother is the key to unlocking the treasure.

In Shengyuan, on the night of the full moon, Shu Yan specially brought a few people to a high place. She looked into the distance, then looked at the younger generations around her, and felt like testing them.

Cheng San pretended to be serious and said, "Godmother, are you here to feed mosquitoes? You haven't said a word for a long time."

Shu Yan smiled helplessly and kicked Cheng San.

"Look at the terrain here. Doesn't it look like a white lotus, and Shengyuan is right in the middle."

Bai Guichen and Cheng San's eyelids jumped and they looked at each other. Chen Yun was at a loss and seemed not to understand yet.

Shu Yan touched the red beads hanging around his neck.

"Don't tell anyone, we came here just to end the rest of our lives."

The next morning, it started raining outside, and the rain got heavier and heavier. In a short while, the lobby was flooded.

In the past two months, Shu Yan helped the county build a school, paid people to clean up the silt in the river that had been there for years, and gave the corn and sweet potato seeds that Bai Guichen had collected some time ago to many people for free.

Song Yin also helped Chen Yunzhong deal with many old cases in various places.

So when the county government office was flooded, some kind-hearted people came to help.
