romantic flower

() Now that Taoist priests and Buddhas are disappearing, Taohua Temple still exists. It is conceivable that the abbot of Taohua Temple is not an ordinary person.

This point was something Song Yi thought about after he left Peach Blossom Temple, because the news he got from the old monk made him think about these things.

Song Yi's so-called comprehension is what the body and mind yearn for, even if it is far-fetched and fearful, he must break through the prison and move forward!

In this world, people who can stop their footsteps, except for their own hearts, can't even die...

The strength of a saint lies in the firmness of the inner and outer body and mind as one!So Song Yi learns to live and move forward by following the heart firmly!

Ever since she wished to get a baby's nickname, Qingyan became more and more cheerful, and her belly became rounder day by day.

On this day, the peach blossoms in Yangzhou are in full bloom, and Yangzhou City has finally come to the most flowery and beautiful season of the city!Song Yi was in Bianzhou before going to see the Peach Blossom Forest in Peach Blossom Temple.

There will always be a different feeling when revisiting the old place!

A few months later, Bianzhou remains the same.The city is still full of flowers, and the sky is slightly colder than Yangzhou, but there are more people on the streets than Yangzhou.

Song Yi entered the city quietly, and entered the Wang family compound in a low-key manner. Wang Kuanglu personally talked to Song Yi in the living room of the Wang family...

The discussion was nothing more than the matter of harvesting grain. Wang Kuanglu was interested in it, but he also hesitated.

The Wang family didn't have much foundation before their daughter was rich, but now they have foundation, in fact, they rely on water transportation. To put it bluntly, shipbuilding is a big business.It is well-known for the water transport to be as big as the Wang family, but the water and land business has been clearly defined since ancient times.

Grain transportation seems to be closely related to water transportation, but there are strict boundaries.Wang Kuanglu has been immersed in Yin and Shanghai for many years, and it can be regarded as skyrocketing, but the truth he told Song Yi at this moment is still that he needs to be cautious about collecting grain.

The Wang family is different from the salt gang in that they rely on the emperor to get rich.Although the objective objective of the Wang family was to eat a share of the royal rations and do some good things for the court, the reason why Wang Kuanglu was confined was that if the matter was too involved, it would have something to do with the people in the court!

Wang Kuanglu became rich thanks to his two daughters!In the same way, if Wang Kuanglu made a wrong move, his two daughters might be disadvantaged. Therefore, the Wang family seemed to be rich and prosperous, but in fact, the wealth of the Wang family was inseparable from Wang Kuanglu's strict observance of the rules.

Although the Great State of Zhao still hasn't regained the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, it is still very large, so big that Wang Kuanglu still has a lot of fears about the way of business, and he is very clear about the forces of all parties and dare not cross over.

Song Yilai had also guessed that there might be such a scene before, and he was not too disappointed at this time. He did not continue to lobby Wang Kuanglu, but smiled calmly and joked about Fengyi and asked about the five Jiangnan families.

Wang Kuanglu was only slightly ashamed before, but now he finally frowned when Song Yi mentioned the Five Jiangnan Families.

Wang Kuanglu stared at Song Yi in surprise and asked, "How do you know about the five Jiangnan families?"

Song Yi replied, "I've heard people talk about this in Yangzhou, so I want to come to Bianzhou and ask you to know more."

Wang Kuanglu looked at Song Yi with a meaningful expression, and then said after a moment of pondering, "I don't know where you heard the Jiangnan Five Families, but the person who wants to know about the Jiangnan Five Families should not be an ordinary person. If he I only told you the names of the Five Jiangnan Families but did not tell you how powerful the Five Jiangnan Families are. I have to advise that if these five Families are involved in the grain collection... you'd better find a way to stay out of it. Difficult!"

"Speaking of which, do you have any fear of the frightening aspects of the five Jiangnan families?" Song Yi asked curiously.

"The five Jiangnan families mentioned by that person actually trace back to the branches of the earlier clans of seven families and five surnames. Those people's power in Jiangnan is not known to Da and the power of the court, nor is it prominent in the folk semicolon, but You have to know that the descendants of the seven families and five surnames have been an unimaginable force since ancient times! Although after wars, some families are not as good as they used to be and even their surnames have changed, but those who can fight against them... ...There are very few people in the entire Great Zhao Kingdom!" Wang Kuanglu said with a solemn expression.

"Seven families and five surnames... It sounds like it's getting more and more complicated!" Song Yi said with a meaningful smile.

Seeing that Song Yi didn't have much awe, Wang Kuanglu was a little worried. After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke up and said, "Actually... there is something you should have heard about, the girl betrothed to the Jiangnan Shen family... Have you seen Shen Nantong before?"

Song Yi asked slightly in astonishment, "His surname is Shen, is it the Shen family among the five families in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Wang Kuanglu smiled helplessly, "If he really is, even if Su Er refuses at this moment, I will send Su Er into the gate of the Shen family no matter how strong I am... But since I am talking about Shen Nantong, I must tell you Although he is not a direct descendant of the Shen family, he is the blood of an illegitimate son of the head of the Shen family 40 years ago..."

Song Yi frowned and said, "Speaking of which, Shen Nantong's wealth is only a drop in the bucket of the Shen family?"

"Yes! The Five Jiangnan Families seldom take action. Since you guessed that the matter of harvesting grain was related to the Five Families, it must have been related to them, and since you were involved, it seems that things have come to the fore! You Think about it clearly, until now the figures of the five families have not yet appeared, so who can stand in the way of the traffic?" Wang Kuanglu said in a warning tone.

Although Song Yi felt that it was a little tricky, he found it more interesting.For him, the legendary forces of seven families and five surnames appeared, and he was so close to them without knowing it, he felt somewhat like a dream.

After sorting out his thoughts, Song Yi asked Wang Kuanglu, "Since Shen Nantong is a side branch of the Shen family, is it possible for Shen Nantong to be involved in this matter?"

Wang Kuanglu shook his head and said, "This kind of thing is not easy to say. It stands to reason that Shen Nantong is a bloodline outside the family! The major events that the five families have to do are originally the core children of the family to participate in, and Shen Nantong should not be there. But Shen Nantong's ability is even praised by me, I think he has won a lot of goodwill from the Shen family over the years...Are you still not giving up?"

Song Yi said with a smile, "I didn't want to get involved in this matter, but since it's inevitable, wouldn't it be unmanly to give up like this? What's more, I think that if the matter of harvesting food is real It was done by the Five Jiangnan Families, and their behavior is obviously immoral...Even if I want to give up, do I have to spit and disgust them?"

Wang Kuanglu said dumbfoundedly, "I don't know why the emperor would think of letting you participate in this matter, but I'm worried about everyone, so I'm afraid I can't get involved! But if you encounter major difficulties and crises, give me a News, I will try my best to give you a comprehensive look..."

"Thanks in advance, I will ask the Wang family for help on that day!" Song Yi replied with a smile, but in fact he was slightly relieved, because although he did not get help from the Wang family this time, he did not owe the Wang family any more. favor.

After the two discussed about the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Workshop, Song Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, because Wang Kuanglu would transfer his confidant craftsmen from Bianzhou to take care of the Jiangnan affairs. It can be regarded as an end to the matter of repaying his love.

Then, Song Yi asked about the deeds of the seven families and five surnames and the five families in the south of the Yangtze River. Wang Kuanglu told Song Yi everything he knew. Many of the major events were told, and even Song Yi was shocked as if listening to a legendary story. I don't know if Wang Kuanglu exaggerated or he came from hearsay. In short, Song Yi was curious about the five Jiangnan families, but also held a cautious awe...

Before noon, a housekeeper came over and said that the luncheon was ready, so Wang Kuanglu invited Song Yi to join him.

Wang Su, who was supposed to be seen at the dinner table, did not appear. Wang Kuanglu didn’t say anything, and Song Yi was embarrassed to ask about it. The dinner table with only two men seemed deserted no matter how rich the food was. Song Yi quickly finished his meal and said goodbye to Wang Kuanglu. Wang Kuanglu didn't try to keep her too much.

After Song Yi left, Wang Kuanglu calmed down and sighed faintly. He turned his head and asked a maid standing beside him, "Miss, don't you want to come out for dinner?"

An ordinary-looking, slightly thin maidservant responded timidly, "The servant invited me outside the room, and the lady said that she has a weak appetite and doesn't want to eat!"

Wang Kuanglu didn't ask any more questions, he just got up and asked his servants to clean up the dining table, and then went to the backyard by himself...

After Song Yi walked out of the gate of Wang's house, he walked towards the city in one direction, which was the Yuanlai game hall in Bianzhou, and his wife Huang Ying was the shopkeeper in the game hall at the moment.

When passing by the former Baijiajiu shop, Song Yi stopped in surprise and found that a new building had been built at the location of the Baijiajiu shop that had been burned down in the war, and the signboard of the new building was still Baijia Restaurant!It seems...it's an inn?

Curious, Song Yi walked towards the wine shop, but saw that the old man who jumped out of an ordinary carriage parked outside the wine shop turned out to be Lao Fan.

The disheveled old man with a wretched and shrewd face smiled at Song Yi with his toothless mouth open.

"Old Fan!" Song Yi shouted in a little surprise.

Lao Fan shrugged with a smile, and stepped aside to let Song Yi see the carriage behind him clearly.

Song Yi realized that he had only met Wang Kuanglu, and it seemed that there were really not many people who could let Lao Fan drive here at this moment.

Could it be that savage little girl in that carriage?

Song Yi's smile froze slightly on his face and he looked at the carriage. The curtain was slightly opened, and when it was raised, a beautiful but somewhat unfamiliar face appeared.

Although it seemed unfamiliar, Song Yi suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy, and unconsciously remembered a sentence that the old monk said in Peach Blossom Temple...

Now that the peach blossoms are blooming in March, the owner of this strange and beautiful side face unexpectedly had her delicate and charming youth at some point.

Is she waiting for him?
