The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 149
In early summer, the weather is hot.

Liu Wei didn't sleep well on the first night in Xingwang's mansion, because although he slept on the same bed as Princess Ruyi, he couldn't behave in any way. How uncomfortable it is for a man One thing, and it's still summer, and I wear so little.

Therefore, after dawn, Liu Wei got up quickly, he was afraid that he would do something that he would regret because he could not control it.

However, when Liu Wei woke up and went to discuss with Zhuge Pi the meeting with the five major families today, he found that Zhuge Pi and Qin Yun were whispering together. Go, Zhuge Pi sighed softly and shook his head slightly.

Seeing this situation, Liu Wei frowned slightly, did Zhuge Pi and Qin Yun know each other before?

Liu Wei felt that things were strange. Although Qin Yun was from the Southern Han Dynasty, didn't she say that she had a miserable life experience? It's unlikely that Zhuge Pi would know a little girl, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Wei shook his head again. He already felt that Qin Yun was unusual. Hua Qiongxian might know Qin Yun, and then Zhugepi might also know Qin Yun. If this is the case, Qin Yun's identity is absolutely It can't be as simple as a bullied woman in the Southern Han Dynasty.

Qin Yun, Qin Yun.

Liu Wei said Qin Yun's name several times in a row, and then thought of the Qin family of the five major families, and when he thought of this, he was slightly startled, so Qin Yun must be from the Qin family, right?

Liu Wei couldn't believe his own thoughts. The Qin family can be regarded as one of the five major families in Xing Wangfu. If Qin Yun was a member of the Qin family, how could he go to Kaifeng, the capital of Song Dynasty, to make a living alone?

However, if she is really from the Qin family, it would explain why she was able to reach the capital city of Kaifeng, and why she was able to open a restaurant in the capital city of Kaifeng.

After some thinking, Liu Wei finally appeared.

"Mr. Zhuge."

Zhuge Pi turned his head and saw Liu Wei, and hurriedly saluted: "Master Liu."

"Mr. Zhuge, yesterday I was still unclear about the situation of the five major families, so I came here to ask Mr. Zhuge for advice."

"Don't dare, my lord has orders, and my subordinates will definitely die."

Liu Wei smiled, and then led Zhuge Pi to the living room. After the two sat down, Liu Wei asked directly: "These five major families control most of the financial resources of Xingwangfu City. I don't know if they each control What business?"

"Let's put it this way, the five major families are involved in various businesses, but each family has its own expertise. The Peng family is mainly engaged in the silk business, while the Jiang family is in various inns. The Wen family has the most rice and grain, and the dealer controls various aquatic products Well, the Qin family mainly makes wine."

Hearing that the Qin family mainly makes wine, and thinking of Qin Yun opening a restaurant, Liu Wei's expression changed slightly, and said, "This Qin family mainly makes wine?"

Seeing Liu Wei talking about the Qin family alone, Zhuge Pi's heart sank when he thought of Qin Yun who had fled away just now, but he still replied, "Exactly."

Liu Wei smiled: "It's a coincidence, I also make wine, and came to Xingwangfu with me, there is also a girl from Qin Yunqin, she is from Xingwangfu, and used to run a restaurant in Kaifeng City " Having said that, Liu Wei glanced at Zhugepi, saw that his expression was different, and continued to ask: "Mr. Zhuge, do you have any impression of Miss Qin?"

Zhugepi's face was a little pale, and he hummed coldly on his forehead. He didn't know if Liu Wei had discovered something and asked this question. He suddenly felt more nervous than when he first saw Liu Wei yesterday.

After a long time, Zhuge Pi slowly recovered his expression, and suddenly knelt down in front of Liu Wei.

"Your subordinates have concealed the truth from your lord, and I ask lord Liu to punish you."

Seeing that Zhugepi was like this, Liu Wei knew that he had made another choice, and his choice was undoubtedly wise and correct.

"Mr. Zhuge, please hurry up, where do you start with the words of punishment?"

Although he heard what Liu Wei said, Zhugepi didn't dare to be careless, and said: "Miss Qin Yunqin that the lord just mentioned, the subordinates knew her identity, but they didn't tell the lord."

Liu Wei showed a hint of surprise, and said, "Miss Qin's identity? This Miss Qin is just an ordinary girl in Xingwang's residence. What identity can she have?"

"My lord, Miss Qin is the daughter of Qin Jun, the patriarch of the Qin family. Three years ago, Qin Jun wanted to marry her to Wen Lei's son, Wentu. Miss Qin ran away from home in a rage. Qin Jun posted notices throughout the Xingwang Mansion. I searched, but there was no news, after seeing Miss Qin today, my subordinates felt that it was very similar to the portrait posted by Qin Jun back then, so I looked for Miss Qin."

Liu Wei has seen what Zhuge Pi said just now, but Liu Wei was surprised when she found out that Qin Yun is the daughter of Qin Jun. This Qin Yun is really not an easy character, a woman who is willing to resist her family for happiness , his will must be very firm, and Liu Wei has already seen this when he was in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion in the capital.

"Mr. Zhuge met Miss Qin, what did she say?"

Zhugepi smiled wryly: "Ms. Qin refuses to admit it, but the more she is like this, the more she proves that she is the daughter of Qin Jun, not to mention that she hasn't even changed her name. When the subordinates learned that she was the daughter of Qin Jun, they were Those who want to ask her to go to Qin Jun, as far as my subordinates know, Qin Jun only has such a daughter, and she is very fond of her, as long as Miss Qin speaks, Qin Jun will definitely not refuse to ally with adults."

Hearing Zhugepi's words, Liu Wei smiled helplessly. If Qin Yun didn't want to go back, no one would be able to convince her, and Liu Wei believed that it wasn't that Qin Yun didn't want to see his parents. My own difficulties, thinking that she eavesdropped on her conversation with Princess Ruyi yesterday, must be because she was worried that she would do something to her Qin family.

"Does Miss Qin still have an engagement with Wentu?" Liu Wei felt that the biggest reason why Qin Yun didn't go home was that if the engagement was still there, she would be forced to marry again after returning.

"Back then, because of Miss Qin's escape from marriage, the city was full of trouble. Qin Jun wanted to use this marriage to strengthen his power, but he offended the Wen family because of it. The Wen family refused to stop. Not only did the Qin family make compensation, but also Qin Jun promises to send Miss Qin to their Wenfu immediately after finding Miss Qin, so the engagement is not broken."

Things were just as Liu Wei thought, this Qin Yun is really a hard-working person.

"You don't have to worry about Miss Qin's affairs. She has the right to make her own decisions. Whether she goes back to Qin's house or not, this is her freedom."

Zhugepi hesitated for a moment. He also knew that Miss Qin Yun was suffering. A girl had been wandering outside for so many years, and she had to suffer a lot. But he also felt that if Qin Yun was willing to come forward, it would be easier to form an alliance with the Qin family.

However, seeing that Liu Wei's tone was firm and could not be changed, he had no choice but to accept the order.
-
In the afternoon, the weather suddenly became gloomy, with dark clouds overwhelming the city.

It was drizzling before dusk.

Before the appointed time came, the heads of the five major families of Xingwang Mansion all came under umbrellas.

Liu Wei set up a banquet at the government office pavilion, outside the pavilion was drizzling rain, sitting in the pavilion and drinking, it was quite special.

After everyone sat down, the atmosphere was still somewhat reserved, but Liu Wei chattered homely as if he had no intention of doing it.

"Although I was appointed by the Holy Majesty to be the magistrate of King Xing's Mansion, I just borrowed the honor of my princess. In fact, I am young and inexperienced, so it is really difficult for me to take up this important role. Therefore, I would like to ask you to support me a lot in the future. What's the matter?" The place is wrong, everyone please forgive me."

Seeing Liu Wei's weakness, Peng Jiu felt overjoyed, and said, "Master Liu is a little too modest when he said this. It is said that Master Liu has a good temperament, and words like "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and "Shui Tiao Ge Tou", although we are interested The palace has also heard about it."

Liu Wei smiled: "Boss Peng was joking, my official lyrics are just arty, and good lyrics doesn't mean I can do things well. As a magistrate, how can I do it if I only know how to write lyrics? So in the future when managing government affairs, Boss Peng needs to give more advice."

"Master Liu is just joking, we are all civilians, how dare we raise opinions on government affairs?"

Jiang Jie, who was sitting next to Peng Jiu, smiled slightly. He was afraid that Peng Jiu would be too complacent and say beyond words, so he quickly interrupted and gave Liu Wei's words back.

Liu Wei was not in a hurry, and shook his head: "These are the heads of the five major families of King Xing's Mansion. If you stamp your feet, you can make King Xing's Mansion tremble three times. Why can't you participate in government affairs? In fact, many things about King Xing's Mansion are I still have to rely on you all." At this point, Liu Wei took a sip of a glass of wine, and then continued: "For example, the price of food has been rising. Except for the five patriarchs, I really can't think about it. Who can come out and help."

Suddenly hearing Liu Wei mentioning the food price, the faces of the five patriarchs changed slightly, and Wen Lei reacted the most strongly. Who in the entire King Xing's mansion didn't know that his Wen family had the most food?When Liu Wei mentioned this matter, didn't he intentionally involve Wen Lei?

"Lord Liu really thinks highly of me. I'm just a businessman. I can't manage these important national affairs there, I can't!" Wen Lei said, looking helpless.

Hearing Wen Lei's words, Liu Wei smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's okay, Boss Wen can't control the food price, but you can't control the brothel business in Baihua Lane, I think the business in Baihua Lane is a big profit , ready to introduce a series of policies, I wonder if Boss Peng is interested?"

"This……"

Wen Lei frowned slightly, and Peng Jiu who was next to him couldn't help being surprised. He had already competed with Wen Lei for the business in Baihua Lane, but now what did Liu Wei mean by suddenly mentioning this matter?

The two looked at each other, remembering the vows they made yesterday, and suddenly smiled slightly.

"I can't control it. I can't control the affairs of the court."

Seeing this, Liu Wei didn't take it seriously, and turned his attention to Qin Jun: "Boss Qin, to tell the truth, I am also in the wine making business in the capital, come and taste the Tanxiang wine brewed by myself."

Seeing that Liu Wei was alone with Qin Jun for a drink, the expressions of the other four changed slightly.
