Wei Yuan knew that it was best to deliver the letter by himself, but he was worried that someone else would come over there and no one else in Zhuangzi could do anything, so he had to entrust the matter to Wu Xiong and wait for him to report the address of delivering the letter in the capital. At this time, Wu Xiong was stupid again.

Dingguohou Mansion in the capital? !Did he hear it correctly? It was the original General Huwei's Mansion? !

When Wei Yuan doubted whether he could handle his errand well, Wu Xiong jumped three feet high, stuffed the letter into his arms and patted his chest to assure himself. "Don't worry, General Huwei is the general I admire most. Even if I risk my own life this time, I will definitely deliver the letter."

Only then did Wei Yuan let him go. When Wu Xiong ran away excitedly and the shadow disappeared, Wei Yuan curled up his lips and said to himself that he had deliberately revealed some tricks before, just to scare these people, especially after hearing When those two people told them about Cheng'en's residence, his methods were more ruthless than usual.

For this matter, after her mood calmed down, Aunt Jiang went to find Madam Yang and inquired about the ancestors of the Zhao family, especially Zhao Shuyun's mother. Although Madam Yang was a little strange, these things would be clear to older people when she inquired about them. I know, so there is nothing to say.

After knowing the origin of Zhao Shuyun's mother, Grandma Jiang went to ask the elderly people in the village who came from the same village as her. Those people could even tell what happened to Zhao Shuyun's mother when she was a child. Grandma Jiang told these things after she returned. I told Wei Yuan everything, hoping that I could help Sister Cheng in the future.

Wei Yuan laughed and wrote another letter, including what Nanny Jiang had learned about, and then sent it to the county, where the teahouse owner of the Shang family would ask someone to send it to the capital. In this way, he would not be afraid of anything happening to Wu Xiong. Just in case.

He believed that with the reminder from here, the Marquis would be able to take precautions. They were both in the capital and were a wealthy family, so the chance of meeting him was much higher than that of ordinary people. However, if they were prepared before meeting, the Li family would The wife will definitely not be able to please her.

Wei Yuan was right. Although the capital was large, the places where the rich and powerful went when they went out had a certain range.

Li Cheng followed Lu Yanzhao to visit the tavern which was still under renovation.

Li Cheng walked around the shop in front and the garden behind, and felt that it was better for her not to interfere. Even if she wanted to, there was no room for her to intervene, because she knew nothing about these things, such as the importance of one step at a time and the theory of Feng Shui. For Li Cheng, It was like a book from heaven, but Li Dong followed others with great energy.

Li Cheng saw that after the garden at the back was opened to the public, the tavern had been made like a modern private kitchen. The layout of the garden was no worse than the private kitchens in courtyard houses she had seen before.

She has already written a letter and asked the caravan traveling north and south under the Shang family to send it to Aunt Jiang in Zhengyang Village, explaining the matter of the Yu family tavern in the capital, and then she would continue to make wine, the more the merrier.

Seeing that nothing happened, Shang Yilan said that he would invite Li Cheng and Lu Yanzhao to the Shang family's restaurant for dinner.

This restaurant is located at the entrance to a real downtown area. During meal time, you can see people coming in and out in extraordinary attire. When Shang Yilan came to this restaurant called "Hongfu Restaurant", he first arranged for Lu Yanzhao and Li Cheng to go there. Going to his own private room, Shang Yilan greeted the nobles who came in and out with a smile on his face. These people were also polite when they saw the young master of the Shang family, and some of them seemed to be very familiar with each other.

While talking to them, Shang Yilan asked the shopkeeper to go to the kitchen and ask the chef to prepare a few specialty dishes and send them to his private room to entertain the distinguished guests.

There was also a well-informed person who had business dealings with the Shang family and asked him: "Mr. Shang, I heard that you are busy opening a new shop again? I don't know what kind of business you want to do to make money, so don't forget to support your brothers!" "

The people next to him also laughed and listened carefully to what he would say. Even those who did not pay attention to the Shang family had heard about the separation of the Shang family, but now they saw that their generals had the most money. The business was divided without any signs of decline, and a new shop was actually opened. Could it be that this big move did not harm the direct branches of the Shang family?

The separation of the Shang family is very worthy of celebration for other competitors. After all, the ship is too big and has a palace background, so they have always been suppressed by the Shang family, but now the reduction in power has given them a lot more survival. space.

"No, I'm just planning to open a small business specializing in drinks with my friends. When the pub opens, I will sincerely invite you to come and treat me. Please be sure to show me your face." Shang Yilan revealed the news to build momentum in advance. When the tavern opens, it will welcome more customers.

Beverage sales?This surprised many people. Isn't this restaurant selling alcohol? Why bother setting up a separate restaurant? How is it different from today's restaurants?

However, they also knew Shang Yilan's skills and would not engage in loss-making business. For a while, most of them became curious and promised to go to support him. They also said that the business was prosperous and the money was flowing.

The shopkeeper came out of the kitchen and told Shang Yilan that the orders in the kitchen were ready.

The two were talking when they saw three people coming in. One of them smiled and nodded after seeing Shang Yilan.

"It turns out Mr. Cheng is here. Shang has not yet wished Mr. Cheng high school. Congratulations!" Shang Yilan clasped his fists to greet him. Although he was not a familiar person, he still greeted him politely during meetings. This Cheng The young master's father is the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the wife of the Cheng family has some relatives with the queen. On weekdays, she is the only one who often goes to the palace to talk to the queen.Even Duke Cheng'en's Mansion didn't show such kindness, so many people in the Cheng family had good intentions towards them.

Shang Yilan admired the Cheng family and Minister Cheng very much.He got to his current position through his own ability, not through nepotism, and he has always remained neutral among dignitaries. He was polite to several princes and their cronies, neither close nor alienated, but never alienated. Take sides.There is no harm in making friends with them.

Cheng Xuan was inviting guests today, and the people he invited were Jiang Yingwu and Wang Yu, who lived with Jiang Yingwu. Jiang Yingwu knew Wang Yu's purpose of coming to the capital and was willing to bring him to make friends with people in the capital.

Cheng Xuan was naturally familiar with Shang Yilan, and Shang Yilan was much more pleasing to the eye than the other two young masters of the Shang family who were jumping up and down in the capital a while ago. He greeted Shang Yilan while introducing Jiang Yingwu and Wang Yu.

The two parties exchanged greetings, and it was obvious that both Jiang Yingwu and Wang Yu were familiar with the names of the Shang family.

When Jiang Yingwu saw that Shang Yilan was personable and courteous, his first impression was still very good. He also hoped that Brother Wang could get acquainted with Mr. Shang.

"Shopkeeper, take Mr. Cheng and the others to this private room by the window."

"Okay, Mr. Cheng, Mr. Jiang, and Mr. Wang, please come with me." The shopkeeper personally led them upstairs, and Cheng Xuan and others said goodbye to Shang Yilan.

Shang Yilan came to his private room, but the atmosphere inside was different from what he imagined. He shrank his head and almost left. Why did Marquis Dingguo look unhappy?
