Chapter 264
Liu Yan glanced at the food and drink, everything was ready, but Xiao Nianyou hadn't come yet, she couldn't help feeling a little anxious, she sat on the chair and waited, always worried in her heart if Xiao Nianyou didn't come...

Seeing that the heat from the food on the table gradually diminished, Liu Yan's face darkened, she frowned, full of resentment, she ordered the maid Qing Ning: "Take these away from me!"

Qing Ning frowned slightly, as if she felt it was a pity, turned her body and looked up to see Xiao Nianyou coming from the yard, walked quickly to Liu Yan's side, and said softly: "Ma'am, the young master is here."

Liu Yan's complexion was like the summer sky, and it immediately turned cloudy, and the smile on his face was like a blooming flower facing the sun, looking at Xiao Nianyou: "Sir, you are here, this dish is getting cold, I make people go hot."

Xiao Nianyou felt slightly apologetic, and reached out to touch the plate: "The temperature is just right, there is no need to heat it up, I have read the account book for so long, and I happen to be hungry, Yan'er hasn't had dinner yet, right?"

Liu Yan's eyes were very charming when she heard that, she sat down happily and looked at Xiao Nianyou affectionately: "Yan'er is just waiting for my husband."

Seeing Liu Yan's ecstatic eyes, Xiao Nianyou said shyly, "Then let's eat quickly, it's okay if we don't talk about it, but if we say we're hungry, we really feel like we're starving to death."

Liu Yan took the jug and poured a full glass for Xiao Nianyou, the pink gauze slipped on, revealing her snow-white arms.

Xiao Nianyou took the wine glass, looked at Liu Yan's obvious intentions, and asked: "Yan'er said today that she has something to tell me, what is it?"

Liu Yan didn't expect to get to the point so quickly, she said nervously: "It's...it's about my father." Liu Yan's eyes were sharp suddenly, full of resentment, "The emperor is prejudiced against our Liu family, so he deliberately lowered him." Daddy's official position!"

After hearing this, Xiao Nianyou felt impatient, but on the face he said impartially: "It's a matter in the court, maybe there is a reason we don't know, besides, it's just a demotion, the court's promotion and promotion It is normal to reduce the cost, and maybe it will rise again soon.”

"No, the emperor did it on purpose!" Liu Yan insisted, as if she could guess the holy will.

She saw that Xiao Nianyou didn't seem to have any reaction to this matter. Her father used to be aloof and powerful, but now he has no real power. This is a great blow to the Liu family.

Even among the ladies and ladies, she obviously felt a slight coldness, how could she not be in a hurry?
"Master, you have to help Yan'er's father!" As she said that, Liu Yan looked weak and pitiful and needed to be protected, and her body limply fell into Xiao Nianyou's arms.

Xiao Nianyou coughed twice, and gently helped Liu Yan up: "Yan'er, I'm just a businessman, I understand making money and buying and selling, and I don't understand the things in the court, but I have to take care of it, I I can't control it either."

"Sister-in-law can't control it, Yan'er understands." Liu Yan's eyes were so soft that water dripped, she bit her lip slightly and said, "But the queen mother can take care of it, as long as the husband accepts the queen mother's suggestion..."

Xiao Nianyou already knew what Liu Yan meant, but since Liu Yan didn't do anything to offend the Xiao family, she turned a blind eye and let her make friends with whoever she wanted. Speaking of which, she was still the queen mother herself. , It is understandable that Liu Yan will help the Queen Mother and will be attached to the Queen Mother.

He just smiled indifferently, and said: "The businessman only cares about business, and it's better not to ask about the affairs of the court. Yan'er, come, eat quickly, the food is cold."

As Xiao Nianyou said, he picked up a chopstick and fungus for Liu Yan, and put it on a small plate in front of her.

Thinking about this, Liu Yan felt a chill in her heart, but she was not discouraged, and she didn't move her chopsticks, she just begged coquettishly: "Sir, if you don't help daddy, what about daddy's affairs? Yan'er is a woman who is struggling Bo, you are helping a bunch of daddies..."

Xiao Nianyou stopped the chopsticks, and laughed loudly: "Let men worry about men's affairs, you, don't run to the palace, let others say that you are the queen mother's daughter, in case the emperor If you don't like it, it will be troublesome."

Liu Yan was unhappy when she heard this, and she pouted, but thinking about the emperor's thoughts, it was hard to guess, if she really accidentally angered the emperor, she and her father Liu Zhengfeng would be even more unable to walk away.

"I will slowly figure out a solution for my father-in-law's matter. I will inquire about it tomorrow. There is no rush." ​​Xiao Nianyou comforted.

Liu Yan sighed slightly, she had no choice but to eat reluctantly, she was afraid that Xiao Nianyou would get angry if she continued.

After a while, both of them were full of wine and food, Liu Yan waited for someone to clear the table, and said in a soft voice: "Sister, it's getting late today, so let's go to bed early, I have already prepared a medicine bath to relieve fatigue. ..."

Liu Yan spoke softly, her eyes gleamed softly, which meant clearly.

"Uh..." Xiao Nianyou laughed, "I'm in a hurry to come over for dinner, and I still have an important account book to work on."

Just as he was talking, he saw the frustrated expression on Liu Yan's face, Xiao Nianyou lightly pressed Liu Yan's hand and said: "You have been tired all day, take a good medicinal bath and go to bed early."

Liu Yan looked at Xiao Nianyou's back as he went away, feeling angry, she rolled up her two cigarette sleeves, turned around and went to the back room.

In fact, Xiao Nianyou knows that this matter is not as simple as Liu Yan said, the political battle inside and outside the palace is a battlefield where no swords and guns are seen, and if one step is wrong, one will end up in broken bones, dead bodies or even family ruins What happened to him, and how many such things have happened in the past dynasties.

He once paid a painful price for escaping——Lin Fei, he will not just evade this blindly, he is now a person under the emperor, why can't those people see through?

Although Xiao Nianyou is young, his temper is still somewhat rebellious, and he disagrees with Mrs. Xiao in many things, but on this point he still follows his grandfather's teachings.

Mrs. Xiao often warned his children and grandchildren, and even the members of the chamber of commerce, to keep in mind: businessmen, when it comes to business, must be pure businessmen, and must not touch current affairs, let alone participate in power struggles in royal official circles.

Otherwise, even if you win a temporary bonus, you will end up with a bad ending.

Lu Buwei, the earliest political businessman, had power in the shopping malls and power fields for a while, and gained both fame and fortune, but the good times did not last long, and eventually he was ruined and died without a whole body. Moreover, the proud "rare goods to live in" once became a laughing stock. Streets and alleys.

Because of Princess Linghua's relationship, Xiao Nianyou often had to get in touch with the government, and even had a relationship with the royal family, but the old man of the Xiao family once severely warned Xiao Nianyou that he would never participate in court battles if he had to. Never participate in power struggles.

But now the matter of Liu Yan's father seems to be a small matter, but Xiao Nianyou feels that the wind is about to come, and the wind is full of wind.
