After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Chapter 212 It’s hard to disobey the emperor’s order, you deserve it

After the businessman left, Tan Zhixu also hurried back to the Hou Mansion, fearing that someone else would come looking for him again.

Of course, she had made it clear to all the shops in the Hou Mansion that she would not offend businessmen from other countries without seeing them, but Shopkeeper Xu was a little disappointed when she didn't see Tan Zhixu when he was at the restaurant.

The shopkeeper asked shopkeeper Xu to go to the Hou Mansion.

Shopkeeper Xu was a little frightened when he thought of Song Ling'er's face. The shopkeeper could tell what Shopkeeper Xu was thinking at a glance.

"Shopkeeper Xu, the second lady said that the eldest lady is not here at the moment, so you can go."

"it is good."

Shopkeeper Xu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to find Tan Zhixu.

Both of them are fast-moving and have no intention of wasting time.

A quarter of an hour later, the two met at the back door of the Hou Mansion.

"Second Madam, I will be leaving in two days, and I will no longer be able to cooperate with you in the future."

To be honest, he has been running the shop in the Hou Mansion for so many years, and Tan Zhixu is the only person he admires.

Tan Zhixu was a little reluctant to leave, but he didn't want Shopkeeper Xu to stay in the Hou Mansion. Without Shopkeeper Xu, the business of the Hou Mansion would not be as good as before, and he could just take advantage of it.

"Shopkeeper Xu, take care of yourself when you go back. I think we can cooperate. I think these shops are pretty good, and we can definitely cooperate in the future."

Tan Zhixu listed his shop to Shopkeeper Xu.

But shopkeeper Xu didn't know that these were Tan Zhixu's private property, and he thought he was an acquaintance of hers.

"it is good."

Shopkeeper Xu accepted the roster given by Tan Zhixu, explained some things to her, and then left.

After watching shopkeeper Xu leave, Tan Zhixu felt a lot happier. She knew that she didn't have much time left for her, but for now, everything was developing in a good direction.

But as soon as she returned to the yard, Tengxi fell into the yard.

The moment he saw Teng Xi, Tan Zhixu frowned slightly. Thinking about it carefully, he had indeed not seen Gu Huaijing.

"What about your elders?"

"Miss Tan, you still care about my master, don't you?"

Teng Xi originally had a cold face, but when he heard Tan Zhixu's question, he instantly became much happier and smiled at Tan Zhixu.

Tan Zhixu couldn't help but follow Teng Xi and showed a relaxed expression. Then she asked Teng Xi to explain some words to Gu Huaijing, and then she and Gu Yu had a peaceful meal.

An hour later, Teng Xi saw Gu Huaijing coming back from the palace and ran over.

"Master, you are back."

"Why are you so excited? What happened?"

Gu Huaijing changed out of his official robe just as the butler was preparing the meal.

The two of them ate together, and Teng Xi talked eloquently, telling Gu Huaijing everything he had seen with Tan Zhixu today.

"So many things happened in the Hou Mansion?"

Gu Huaijing was worried for a while. People from the Hou Mansion started making trouble before the business meeting started. If this really started, Tan Zhi's situation would only be even more uncomfortable than now.

Gu Huaijing couldn't eat anymore just thinking about it.

When Teng Xi saw his master's expression, he thought of what Tan Zhixu had told him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. They were really in tune with each other. They both had the same idea.

Gu Huaijing calmed down and saw Teng Xi smiling, frowning slightly, "Why are you so happy?"

Hearing Gu Huaijing's deep voice, Teng Xi came back to his senses instantly, "Master, if it weren't for Miss Tan who understands you, Miss Tan asked me to bring you a letter."

It is true that Tan Zhixu told Teng Xi a lot, but in the end he was afraid that he would not express clearly, so he left the letter directly.

Upon hearing that it was left for him by Tan Zhixu, Gu Huaijing took it directly and opened it quickly.

The content of the letter was very simple, and Gu Huaijing only glanced at it a few times before reading it. Tengxi kept watching from the side. When he saw Gu Huaijing's complexion improved, he breathed a sigh of relief and thought: It must be Miss Tan.

"Eat quickly."

"Master, what did Miss Tan tell you?" Tengxi asked curiously.

Gu Huaijing, who was eating with a smile, heard Teng Xi's question and raised his eyes to look at him, "Want to know?"

Teng Xi, who was about to nod, read something else from Gu Huaijing's eyes and shook his head quickly, "No, I don't want to know."

Teng Xi lowered his head to eat, and Gu Huaijing nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, what Tan Zhixu left for Gu Huaijing was very simple, but it was enough to reassure him.

"Everything in the Hou Mansion is arranged by me. Things are developing in the direction I want. Don't worry."

With these words, Gu Huaijing had nothing to worry about.

After dinner, Gu Huaijing took Teng Xi to meet with representatives of businessmen from other countries.

Although we saw many businessmen this time, the most powerful businessman has not shown up yet?

After discussing with the emperor today, Gu Huaijing decided to attack first. After all, they were the hosts, so they naturally had to do what landlords should do.

The largest inn in the capital was where the merchant delegation stayed, but very few people in the capital knew about it, and Gu Huaijing happened to be one of this group of people.

Gu Huaijing asked Teng Xi to guard outside the inn, and he went straight to the room of the leader of the mission.

At the door, Gu Huaijing knocked on the door, and the person inside panicked, "What's wrong?"

"Someone."

"Gu Huaijing."

Gu Huaijing's ears were very good, and he heard all the conversations among the people in his family, so he simply announced his family name.

The envoys from other countries knew about his reputation, so the people standing at the door quickly opened the door.

Gu Huaijing took advantage of the situation and came to the room.

The leader saw a smile spread out from Gu Huaijing's eyes, "You go out first."

"Yes."

The subordinates went out after receiving the order, and the leader called Gu Huaijing to the table, "Long time no see."

"Brother Tuoba, long time no see."

This person and Gu Huaijing were old acquaintances. He had previously suspected that Tuoba Yu might have brought someone to the capital, but he didn't expect that he was right.

Of the countries around here, who is the richest, it is naturally the Tuoba family, and Tuoba Yu is the youngest successor of the Tuoba family, so it is most appropriate for him to lead a mission to the capital.

"I didn't expect that we would meet on such an occasion."

"Brother Gu, I'm not here to cause trouble, but now that I have started to represent businessmen from other countries, you can't let me show favoritism."

Tuoba Yu was as straight-tempered as before and immediately told Gu Huaijing about his situation.

Gu Huaijing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He didn't come here to let Tuobayu go through the back door. He just wanted to know if these businessmen had other purposes this time.

"Brother Tuoba, you have known each other for many years, and I will not go around in circles with you today."

Gu Huaijing stood up and saluted.

Seeing this, Tuoba Yuna could still sit still and stood up, "What are you doing?"

"Are you here just for business?"

"Ok?"

Tuoba Yu didn't react for a while and looked at Gu Huaijing dully.

The moment their eyes met, Tuoba Yu thought of something and said in shock: "Brother Gu, we are all businessmen. Naturally, we are only here for business. The disputes between countries have nothing to do with us. As common people, naturally We don’t want there to be war.”
