The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

"trade?"

Yan Zhao looked at Zhao Huayin, first with an expression of disbelief, then he chuckled and said,

"Oh! I have nothing now, I don't know how I can make a deal with you, girl?"

"Sir, why do you have to belittle yourself? Everyone knows that you have a lot of great ideas."

Yan Zhao smiled bitterly.

"But no matter how many brilliant articles I write, they can't buy enough money for my mother's medicine."

"Since this road is blocked, why don't you try another one?"

"What does the girl mean by this?"

"I want you to do me a favor. In return, I will treat your mother's illness."

Seeing Yan Zhao's puzzled expression, Zhao Huayin continued to explain,

"I heard that Master Yan's hometown is Huaicheng, a wealthy place in the south of the Yangtze River. I need to buy a piece of silk from Huaicheng now. I wonder if Master Yan is willing to help me."

Yan Zhao was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Yan Zhao hesitate, Zhao Huayin said,

"It has been said since ancient times that 'everything is inferior except for reading'. If you can't give up the character of a scholar, it is understandable. There is no need to force it."

Unexpectedly, Yan Zhao smiled with relief.

"If I can't even protect my mother's life, what's the point of my literary character? The cooperation method proposed by the young lady can indeed solve my current predicament, but I still have a question."

"Sir, please tell me."

"You have never met me before, so why do you trust me so much and want to cooperate with me? You want to buy a batch of silk, and any business can take this business."

After Yan Zhao finished speaking, he stared at Zhao Huayin with burning eyes.

"I have never met you, but you are not a stranger to me."

Zhao Huayin replied with a smile.

"I have the honor of reading your essay, 'Those who accomplished great things in the past not only had extraordinary talents, but also had perseverance.' I believe in your wisdom and ability."

Yan Zhao was stunned when he heard this. It was because of the recommendation of a nobleman for this essay of his that he was able to come to the capital to study.

"you……"

Yan Zhao was so excited that he couldn't speak for a moment.

"My father was ordered to go to Huaicheng to do an official business that year. When he came back, he said that he had done something very proud and discovered a pillar of talent. He had already written a letter to the Imperial College in the capital.

He recommended the student to study in the capital, and my father repeatedly talked about the student's articles. "

"It turns out that the girl is the daughter of my benefactor!"

Yan Zhao bowed solemnly to Zhao Huayin.

"Mr. Yan, you don't have to be so polite."

Zhao Huayin stretched out her hand to support him.

“My father is the Minister of Rites, and what he does is only out of respect for talent, so he cannot be considered as your noble friend.

It was my father who was not thoughtful enough. He only recommended you to go to school but did not consider your situation in the capital."

Yan Zhao thought about what happened to him after he came to the capital, and felt sad for a while, but he immediately spoke sincerely.

"Miss, you are too kind. It is a fact that Lord Zhao has done me a favor. I am grateful for Lord Zhao's recommendation. How dare I ask for anything else?"

"Don't worry, sir. I don't mean to force you to do anything.

I am here to discuss this matter with you, because I trust your character and you are the only one who is most suitable to do this."

"Appreciate further details."

"I want you to buy silk this time. Other things are fine, but the two pieces of gold-woven silk are the ones that only you can buy."

Yan Zhao's expression became serious when he heard this.

Kesi?

There is an old saying in Jiangnan that "an inch of kesi is worth an inch of gold", and the craftsmanship of making high-quality kesi has only been passed down by the Wu family in Huaicheng.

The Huaicheng Wu family was the maternal family of Yan Zhao's mother, but this lady broke with her natal family when she was young.

"Since you want to buy kesi, you should know that it usually takes three or four years to make a piece of kesi.

Even if I go to buy it now, I may not be able to buy it. "

Zhao Huayin smiled slightly.

"The Wu family has passed down the art of weaving gold brocade silk for generations. How could they not have any in stock?"

"Even if there is stock, young lady, you know that I have no dealings with the Wu family, so I may not be able to buy the two rolls of gold-woven silk that young lady wants."

"If Master Yan can't do it, then I believe no one else can do it."

Zhao Huayin looked at Yan Zhao steadily.

"Besides, I will ask my mother to ask Dr. Qin to come and see your mother, so Master Yan can go about his business without any worries."

When Yan Zhao heard the name of Doctor Qin, he had already made a decision in his heart.

"Okay, girl, I agree!"

"When does the girl want me to leave?"

"Master Yan, you can wait until Imperial Physician Qin comes to treat your mother before leaving. Then you can feel more at ease."

Yan Zhao nodded, looking serious.

"Happy girl!"

Yan Zhao stood up and got out of the car, bowed to Zhao Huayin before turning around and leaving.

"Girl, let's go back home quickly!"

As soon as Yan Zhao left, Dianxue, who had been waiting outside the carriage, came up to report.

"The young lady was just talking to Master Yan, so I don't want to interrupt her. The servant guarding the entrance of the alley came to report that he saw the Fourth Prince heading towards our mansion."

"What is he doing in our house?"

Zhao Huayin frowned slightly.

The City Defense Camp under Yan Qi's jurisdiction was not only responsible for overseeing the defense of the capital, but also for supervising court officials.

The city defense battalion would not easily go to the homes of court officials. If they did, that family would surely be in trouble.

"Go home!"

Zhao Huayin gave the order simply.

The carriage stopped in front of the Zhao Mansion. As soon as Zhao Huayin got off the carriage, she saw the city defense camp guards in black armor guarding the door.

Zhao Huayin didn't care about anything else. She lifted her skirt and walked towards the hall.

I walked quickly to the hall and saw Yan Qi sitting in the main seat, drinking tea.

Minister Zhao stood by and smiled as he accompanied them.

Yan Qi looked at Zhao Huayin who was running towards him holding up the hem of her skirt, and frowned slightly.

I came out of Tianxiang Tower and decided to come to Zhao's house after listening to Mu Xiao's report on the way back to the city defense camp.

Zhao Huayin left a long time ago, why did she come back now? Where did she go?

Zhao Huayin didn't know what Yan Qi was thinking. She only saw that Yan Qi's expression was becoming more and more serious, and she felt a little uneasy.

Whether in the past life or this life, Zhao Huayin's understanding of Yan Qi came from rumors, and she was somewhat afraid of him.

"Yinyin, come and meet the Fourth Prince."

Minister Zhao said.

"I've met His Highness the Fourth Prince!"

Zhao Huayin obediently stepped forward and saluted.

When Yan Qi saw Zhao Huayin kneeling gently to salute, most of his unhappiness had dissipated.

"Miss Zhao, there's no need to be so polite!"

Yan Qi said in a deep voice.

"I came to the mansion today because I have something to verify with Lord Zhao. It just so happens that Miss Zhao is here, so let's go and recognize the person together."

After saying that, without waiting for the two to speak, he gave orders to Mu Xiao,

"Bring the people in!"

When Zhao Huayin came to her senses, she saw a person thrown at her feet.

"Yu Ying'er?"

Zhao Huayin exclaimed.

"This woman was sneaking around outside the city defense camp for half a day today, and then she even tried to bribe the guards at the door to deliver something to the people in the prison.

The guard on duty will report as soon as he gets the things."

After saying this, Yan Qi took something from the side and handed it over.

"My Mingyuejue?"

Zhao Huayin cried out in surprise, then turned to glare at Yu Ying'er.

"Why is my Mingyuejue in your hands?!"
