Who took away my wealth

Gu Yu didn't stay in the capital for long. His trip to the capital this time was just a necessary stop on his way to Jiangnan.

I just wanted to see how the acquaintances in the capital were doing.

From Xue Ling's mouth, he learned about the current situation. The Fat Emperor's body gradually recovered. Although it was not as good as before, after all, he had now taken a back seat. He was not as tired as before, but it was still good. Even Gu Cheng's princess was pregnant. Three babies.

Gu Yu thought about how Gu Cheng gritted his teeth when he talked about his princess's tough look. Isn't it good now? The third child is about to be born. If there is no love, it can't be justified.

It's just a tough talk.

Gu Yu sat in the carriage and continued southward slowly.

This time, he went to the south of the Yangtze River, ate longan, followed the waterway to Shu, and also went to the Western Shu Plateau, and finally went north and walked back along the ancient Silk Road.

After seeing the mountains, seeing the water, and appreciating the local customs, time passed from summer to autumn, from autumn to winter, from winter to spring, and from spring to summer.

He had been traveling for more than a year, and he didn't know what "deal" Nanling and Sumu had made, opening up Shanling Prefecture, the nearest channel between Nanling and Shanling Prefecture, as the first border town for mutual trade and mutual benefit between the two places.

Gu Yu didn't know the twists and turns inside, but it was definitely related to Song Qinian.

Finally, he returned to the small town in the north of Shanlingzhou in the autumn of the second year.

As soon as he returned, he was confused.

His originally simple and unpretentious tavern was now completely changed.

It turns out that their tavern only serves local people, in small groups, and it is good to be able to make up the cost in one day. But now, his tavern is full of people, talking loudly, and it is quite lively like drinking tea and listening to books. feel.

The key is that most of these people are Sumu people from the north.

Those eyes and hair were so prominent that Gu Yu couldn't ignore them.

The tavern has been renovated at first glance. From the inside out, almost every aspect looks impeccable. Even the cracks under the previous staircase railing have been repaired.

This seems to be a big deal, and this project cannot be completed without a little money.

Gu Yu even wondered if Yinfeng and Xu Hai had sold out his tavern and met a big boss who was willing to spend money, so they renovated it.

"Sir, would you like to drink? The wine we have here is very fragrant. You will never forget it after one sip...Prince...Your Highness..."

The last four words were almost inaudible.

Gu Yu frowned. The person in front of him looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment. Then he listened to the other person say:

"I'm Xu Zhixing, the guy from Shanling Prefecture who hit you with an egg, you've seen it before!"

The young man was afraid of caring or forgetting, so he tried his best to recall it with him, but he still had some scruples, so he came closer to him and stared at him:

"Are you His Highness the Crown Prince?"

The young man's temptation was already obvious.

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment. The boy back then had grown so tall. No wonder he didn't recognize him.

He did not explain whether he was the prince or not. He just looked at the other party calmly and said, "My name is Gu Yi."

If you can't hear the obvious homophony of Gu Yi, Gu Yu, Xu Zhixing would be a fool.

Tears filled his eyes immediately. He rushed up and hugged Gu Yu, "I knew you were fine. Just be fine. Just be fine. Your life is the most important thing."

Gu Yu laughed at Xu Zhixing's thoughts and pushed him away, "Why are you here as a servant?"

"I saw Yinfeng and Xu Hai in Shanling Prefecture before. I followed them here. I have to find something to do anyway."

"Young master! Hey, little brat, what are you doing to our young master? Let go of your paws!"

Xu Hai rushed over almost immediately and pulled Xu Zhixing's hand away.

"Sir, didn't you say you would come back next month when you were writing a book? Why did you arrive so suddenly?"

"Well, I wrote the letter two months ago, is it fast?"

Gu Yu looked Xu Hai up and down: "I think you look like a capitalist now."

"What is a capitalist?"

"It's nothing. I'm exhausted. Let's go back and rest first. When I wake up, you can tell me about the store's income over the past year."

Gu Yu pushed open the door of his room, stared at the scene inside for two seconds, and then exited. His mind turned a thousand and eight hundred times, and then he raised his head and followed the wall to the eaves. In his heart, the original structure of the house was collapsing.

Does his room look like this?

When I first purchased this tavern, everything was in tatters. I was too lazy to take care of it, so I simply repaired it. Everything was plain and unpretentious.

And now the decoration inside is simply more luxurious than that of the Prince's Mansion back then, and some of the workmanship is even more intricately carved, making it even more beautiful than those in the Prince's Mansion.

Even his roof is covered with glazed tiles, which looks expensive at first glance.

Where did Yinfeng and Xu Hai get so much money to do this?

wrong......

He seemed to have forgotten someone.

My heart suddenly softened.

All the fatigue from the journey disappeared for a while.

Gu Yu turned around and walked out, and happened to meet Yinfeng coming out of the wine shop. When he saw him, his eyes lit up in surprise:

"When did the young master come back? If you don't come back, I thought you were going to give the tavern to me and Xu Hai."

Gu Yu stared at him angrily: "You have a beautiful idea!"

He had actually guessed who was the person who renovated the tavern and transformed his room, but he still pretended not to know and asked:

"What happened to this tavern? There have been so many changes, as well as my room. The amount of work is not small. It seems that we have made a lot of money this year."

Yinfeng glanced at Gu Yu and pursed his lips: "Young Master clearly knows who did it, are you doing this just to irritate us?"

Only then did Gu Yu laugh out loud and asked, "Where are the others?"

"Our little Mr. Song comes at a very fixed time every day. He usually comes at Shen time and goes back at Si time. During your absence, he comes every day and makes your room look like this bit by bit. .”

Yinfeng usually doesn't praise others, but Gu Yu faintly heard his affirmation of Song Qinian from his tone. Gu Yu knew that Song Qinian was a busy man, and he still had to spare most of his time to decorate his room. Normally, No one can do it.

"I told you that I wanted to chase you, but you ran far away and I couldn't chase you directly, so I had to work hard on this. There is still one last piece of wood carving left in your room, which is already decorated. Master, I have been I don’t want to admit it, but now...Xiao Song is indeed pretty good."

"It's not easy to hear you praise him."

Gu Yu's heart was filled with honey and he controlled it not to show it. He raised his thick eyelashes and fluttered them a few times to hide his little thoughts: "Then I'll take a shower and rest first."

After a pause, he said: "If he comes over today, don't tell him I'm back yet."
