Chapter 537 Guilt
On the opposite street, there were a few familiar people standing at the door of the spice shop, the Great Prince Nuerdun and Princess Na Ren from the Northern Land, and Guan Bei, a businessman from the Northern Land.

However, judging from the situation, there seemed to be some conflict between Nuerdun and Guanbei. People on both sides were glaring at each other, and then there were quarrels from both sides, and the persuasion from the shopkeeper.

This situation is also true. Nuer Dun and Guan Bei had some unpleasant incidents in the flower building. It would be strange if they could get along well when they met.

What's more, Nuer Dun's temper is really not good.

"What a coincidence." Huo Qiqi said with a smile.

"En." Li Yuanbai agreed meaningfully. "It's really a coincidence."

"The Guan family has a lot of influence in the North?" Huo Qiqi asked curiously.

"The Guan family is a merchant. They are one of the best merchants in the Northland. They are engaged in the business of fur and dry goods. They also bring back silk, grain, and tea from outside. They are considered big merchants." Li Yuanbai answered every question, "But Guan No one in the family is going to be an official career."

Huo Qiqi nodded slightly. It was completely reasonable that no one from the Guan family was in the officialdom. According to the laws of Dayun Kingdom, businessmen were not allowed to participate in scientific examinations or buy officials.

Li Yuanbai knew a lot about the Guan family, which meant that Li Yuanbai had checked the details of the Guan family.

That's right, Li Yuanbai has a meticulous mind, and the Northland is his base, how could he allow people to make trouble under his nose?

"My lord knows that the Guan family has deals with people from the Northern Kingdom in private, so why do you allow them?" Huo Qiqi continued to stare outside to watch the excitement, but the question he asked was very sharp.

"The war between the two countries does not mean that the two countries must strictly guard against each other, and the people are not allowed to intertwine at all. In fact, the people in the North Kingdom are not all bad people. I will not cut off the livelihood of ordinary people because of the war between the two countries. Things are always reversed, and if you push too hard, it will only arouse the hatred of the people of the Northern Kingdom towards the Dayun Kingdom. In addition, even if the Guan family does not come forward to do business, there will be other businessmen who will take the risk for money. Instead of letting the conflict arouse, force Let the merchants take the risky road, it is better to turn a blind eye and close the eye for mutual benefit." Li Yuanbai also stared outside.

On the side of the street, Guan Bei probably didn't want to cause trouble, and was so angry that he had already led his people away.

Nuer Dun was invited into the shop by the shopkeeper of the spice shop with a proud face.

Huo Qiqi finally saw enough excitement, and looked away from the shop.

"The people at the helm of the Guan family are smart people, they never dare to touch the bottom line of this king." Li Yuanbai explained again.

"food?"

Li Yuanbai nodded again.

Food is the foundation of a country, and the climate and geography of the Northland are not suitable for growing food on a large scale.The fundamental reason why the two countries went to war was food.

Since the Guan family has established a firm foothold in the Northland for so many years, they are fools who would take the initiative to provoke the government.

It was lively, and the meal was almost the same.

At noon, the sun was shining outside, even in the restaurant it was hot.

Even though Jian Yu and Jing Mu took turns fanning Huo Qiqi, Huo Qiqi still felt that the heat was overwhelming, and she was afraid of heat.After putting down her job, she lazily wanted to go back home.

"I'll see you off." Li Yuanbai lay on the table looking boneless, knowing that she was sleepy.

Unable to bear to wrong Qiqi, he immediately agreed to Qiqi's request.

So, the two of them got into the carriage again, and the carriage began to drive slowly on the road.

What Huo Qiqi didn't know was that as soon as she and Li Yuanbai left the private room of the restaurant, someone entered the private room from the other side, and then left the private room after confirming the incense.

The mark on the carriage of Prince Hui's Mansion was very eye-catching. When someone saw King Hui's carriage parked at the gate of Duke Huguo's Mansion, and Huo Qiqi got off the carriage, gossip started secretly again.

Since Huo Qiqi dared to go out with Li Yuanbai, of course he didn't care how others talked about her behind her back.

"You have to say goodbye after a long distance. The prince stays behind. You have too many things to do, so I won't invite the prince to sit in the mansion." When she reached the door, she stopped Li Yuanbai with a smile.

Li Yuanbai was not angry when he was rejected, he did have something to do.Now that the news has been confirmed from Qiqi, some things cannot be delayed for a moment.

"I'll invite you to play when I have time." He looked at Huo Qiqi with a faint smile.

Is this to use her immediately?It was still the kind of guard who was always on call, Huo Qiqi secretly rolled his eyes at him.

Li Yuanbai didn't point out when he saw her small movements, but stretched out his hand lovingly to touch the top of her head.

Huo Qiqi...

Seeing this, the people hiding in the dark were so excited that they couldn't control it. I'll go, it turns out that His Royal Highness Hui has a real affection for Huo Qiqi!

"My lord, go slowly." Huo Qiqi was a little worried, the situation seemed to be different from what she had imagined, and she seemed unable to control the situation until now.

From now on, we can only take one step at a time.

She was in a bad mood, and she didn't have the energy to greet Li Yuanbai. After greeting Li Yuanbai casually, Huo Qiqi went straight into the mansion.

"Cousin Qiqi." When Huo Qiqi entered the mansion, she found that Gu Jinpei brother and sister were waiting for her in the flower hall.

Gu Jinpei's eyes were red and swollen, and when she saw her come in, she felt even more guilty.

Where is this?Could it be that Gu Jinpei did something to offend her in private?Huo Qiqi looked at her suspiciously.

"Qiqi, you're finally back. If you don't come back, the fourth child and I are going out to look for you." Huo Yining wanted to check her whole body carefully.

He desperately wanted to know if the damned Li Yuanbai was bullying Qiqi outside.

"When we parted, didn't you agree that I would come back by myself? The second brother also knew that I was with King Hui. There are so many guards around King Hui, and I brought someone with me. What are you worried about?" Huo Qiqi replied with a smile .

It's fine if she doesn't mention it, but when she joked like this, the anger in Huo Yining's heart burned even more.Hmph, it's because Qiqi went out with Li Yuanbai that they were more worried, okay?

"Qiqi, I'm sorry." Gu Jinpei saw that the Huo family brothers were still talking and joking, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any medicine that makes people look ugly temporarily after taking it?"

"What did my cousin do to offend me?" Seeing that her mental state was not right, Huo Qiqi immediately spoke to her in a teasing tone, "This is the first time I've heard someone willing to make themselves ugly. Cousin, you It's the only one. However, I don't have the medicine to make people ugly temporarily, but there are several medicines that can make people become ugly forever, cousin, are you sure you want it?"

Gu Jinpei is a girl, she is really not very happy to make her ugly forever.But when she thought about Huo Qiqi's situation, she felt that she couldn't be too selfish.

Anyway, it's just becoming ugly, not losing your life.After a short period of thought, Gu Jinpei finally made up his mind, "Sure, ugly is ugly, I admit it. As long as it's pornographic, I can do anything."

After doing it for a long time, it turned out that the girl was trying to get married.But why bother with her?Huo Qiqi didn't understand it for a moment.

"Qiqi, you can't joke. If you have a way, give her the medicine. You are my aunt's child. No matter what, we are all relatives. Our Gu family will never harm you and your fourth brother for the sake of glory and wealth." .” Gu Guangning explained seriously.
