The emperor's heart alone

It has been a while since lunch, and Shi Jun, who has been waiting for Xu Yunjin to come over, can't sit still. Xu Yunjin usually comes at this time, why hasn't he arrived at this time today?

Just as Shi Junji wanted Xu Sa to go to the House of Internal Affairs to see if Xu Yunjin was stumbled by something, someone came to report to Shi Junji two things that happened to Xu Yunjin on the way here.

Shi Junji didn't care much about the eldest prince. What he was most worried about was that the self-assertive Concubine Ning offended Xu Yunjin, and Xu Yunjin leaving the palace angrily was the best proof.Shi Junji was very annoyed, if the matter in the harem was not resolved for a day, there would always be a thorn between him and Xu Yunjin, just thinking about it would be very thorny and unpleasant.However, now is not the best time to deal with the harem, Shi Junji can only hold back.

Even with Concubine Ning's matter this time, what Shi Junji can do is very limited, it is nothing more than having someone beat her up, and by the way, she will be punished with some salary, and nothing else can be done.The only thing that comforts Shi Junji is that the rumors of his relationship with Xu Yunjin are getting more and more intense. Obviously, it won't be long. Even the ministers in the court will know about it. The only thing to worry about is Xu Yunjin Presumably, he already knew the rumors about the two of them from the outside world, so it's hard to say what attitude he has towards himself.

Shi Junji pondered for a moment, then asked the palace servants to remove their lunch, put on casual clothes and left the palace, and went directly to Donglaiju to look for Xu Yunjin.

It is said that Xu Yunjin received Zhao Ershao's invitation and directly changed the evening invitation to noon, and he and Qing Pei also went directly to Donglaiju.He still went to the private room before, but before the second young master Zhao arrived, Xu Yunjin stood by the window of the private room and looked down in a daze.

His eyes were a little lost. He still remembered that he was standing at this window back then. Apart from him, only Su Shao was the only person in the private room. He glanced down inadvertently, and saw Shi Junji who was injured and hunted down. I don't know what kind of mood he left behind to rescue Shi Junji. It can be said that all the entanglements between him and Shi Junji began at that time.

Xu Yunjin sighed slightly. There have been fewer and fewer people around him recently, and it seems that it started when he got to know Shi Junji. Thinking about the five young men in the capital, they came to Donglaiju for a few drinks when they had nothing to do. I went to the Huancai Pavilion for a walk, ran to the hot spring pool a hundred miles away from the capital to take a dip, I still remember these things vividly, but unfortunately it has been a long time, and now even people have gathered together Incomplete.

First Young Master Li and Third Young Master Liu went to the south, although it is not possible to go and never return, after all, they get together less and leave more. Su Shao insisted on going to the Southwest, and he doesn't know if he has reached the place now.Chu Fang, who I met later, completely lost contact since he went to other places to take office.Zong Luoxue was also redeemed by herself and placed in the house, and because of the difference between men and women, she had never stepped into the house.

Now that I think about it, Zhao Ershao is really the only one who can come out and talk.

Zhao Ershao walked into the private room, and saw Xu Yunjin standing by the window at a glance. He seemed to see the unconcealable loneliness from that back. Zhao Ershao was slightly startled, and then smiled: "I thought it was a big favor to ask you out." I'm so busy, I don't know when I can come out to have a meal with me, I didn't expect you to be more anxious than me."

Hearing Zhao Ershao's voice, Xu Yunjin immediately turned around: "How dare you not come at Zhao Ershao's invitation?" Xu Yunjin went to the table and sat down, "Look at you, you are doing well."

Second Young Master Zhao "hehe" laughed twice: "It's okay, you also know that the Zhao Mansion is now in my hands, and I don't need to be an official to make money, so it's naturally very comfortable." Looking carefully at Xu Yunjin's face, " You, on the other hand, are very haggard and look a little thinner."

Xu Yunjin smiled: "No, I have endless sex every day, so it's no wonder I'm not thin."

Zhao Ershao vaguely knew Shi Junji's identity, but he hadn't revealed it in front of Xu Yunjin, but what was the relationship between the two of them that he couldn't say?Disapproval was all over his face at the moment: "No matter how busy you are, you can't ignore your body, right? Let me tell you, you have such a relationship with...him, why are you allowed to take such a tiring position? There are so many things that need to be busy every day. Very, very worried."

Xu Yunjin smiled, and waited until the waiter who was serving the dishes backed out, and then said: "I did it voluntarily." He said suddenly, "Actually, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a clear division of labor, and each performs its duties, so I can't be too busy every day. "

Zhao Ershao didn't want to say anything more, so he simply changed the subject: "If you want me to talk, it's still the most comfortable for me, and I can do whatever I want every day."

Xu Yunjin raised his brows: "Don't be too happy too early. First Young Master Li and Third Young Master Liu are both very busy now, and Young Master Su is not in the capital. If I have anything to do, I will be the first one to call you."

Zhao Ershao turned pale with shock: "Don't, don't, I think my life is quite comfortable now, so don't do it for me for a long time."

"That might be." Xu Yunjin restrained the smile on his face, "Tell me, what do you want to say to me?"

Zhao Ershao curled his lips: "Can't I just ask you out for a meal?"

Xu Yunjin raised his eyebrows: "It would be normal when I was idle before, but now you also know that I am very busy every day. If you have nothing to do, you won't bother me on purpose, will you? Tell me, what is it? Something? You have to come and talk to me yourself. "

Zhao Ershao helplessly put down the chopsticks in his hand: "There is really something going on." Looking up at Xu Yunjin, "Liu Sanshao has brought the goods to the south, and successfully met Li Dashao."

Xu Yunjin said "En": "I know about this."

Zhao Ershao said again: "At first, everything was going well. Third Young Master Liu handed over all the goods to First Young Master Li, and followed Young Master Li to get in touch with the business in the south. There is no problem in terms of the source of goods or the government, just waiting to find a suitable one. The store sells the goods brought over, and Young Master Li has almost prepared the things he wants to bring to the north, and he just waits for the government's official document to be approved before returning to the capital."

"Then you mean..."

Zhao Ershao paused: "Who would have thought that it was stopped by the government."

Xu Yunjin frowned, and continued to listen to Zhao Ershao.

"At the beginning, First Young Master Li and the others didn't want to have any conflicts with the government. After all, First Young Master Li is a pure and honest businessman, and Third Young Master Liu is a concubine who was expelled from the Liu family. We will take the title of the fifth young master in the capital there. It doesn't work very well, so Li Dashao and Liu Sanshao chose to communicate at the beginning, and didn't want to have any conflicts with the government."

"However, the government's attitude is very firm. They insisted on not giving Young Master Li a pass to go north. Even opening a shop in Ningcheng was prohibited. Young Master Li and Third Young Master Liu realized that someone behind the government was stopping them, so they used They used the power of the first floor of Jianghu given to them by Young Master Su to find out who was hindering them, and in the end they really found out." Zhao Er Shao's already low voice became softer, "The people behind It's the third prince."

Xu Yunjin was startled, and put the teacup back on the table calmly: "Are you sure?"

Zhao Ershao nodded: "He wants to buy the batch of goods that Liu Sanshao brought to Ningcheng."

Xu Yunjin remained silent, and Zhao Ershao continued: "Originally, this is nothing. After all, who is it not sold to? But the price they gave... Hmph, it means that when we buy these goods from foreign envoys, the price is more than that." What he gave, not to mention that the goods were transported to the south later, the transportation fee is a lot of money, we are businessmen, we can’t just sell it to him without making any money.”

Xu Yunjin frowned tightly: "Does the third prince know about this? Or is it all done by the third prince's subordinates, and the third prince doesn't know about it?"

"It's not clear yet, but I don't believe that the Third Prince doesn't know anything about it."

Xu Yunjin also agrees with what he said, so if the third prince knows about this, what does the third prince mean?It's normal for people in the south not to know the name of the Five Young Masters in the capital, but they don't believe it when they say that the Third Prince doesn't know.What's more, now that I have become the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it has caused an uproar in the entire capital. No matter how much the third prince ignores the government, he will not be unaware of this fact that has been spread in the streets and alleys of the capital. It is no exaggeration He said, now that Xu Yunjin is in the limelight, why does the third prince want to tear himself apart from the five young masters of the capital?

Remembering that the third prince's biological mother is the present empress dowager, and the Jiang family is the third prince's mother family, Xu Yunjin is a little worried, but he is not afraid if he says he is afraid.Xu Yunjin sneered from the bottom of his heart, could it be that he saw that Shi Jun was going to deal with Jiang's family very much, and the queen mother was seriously ill in bed, so he couldn't sit still now.

It is impossible for Xu Yunjin to hand over the goods willingly because of the high profits of the merchants. Xu Yunjin said, "The matter in the south cannot be delayed any longer. I will take care of this matter." Wouldn't it be enough to have a bigger existence?Even if you want to jump over the wall in a hurry, you won't jump right now.

No matter how rampant the local officials were, they would never dare to disobey the emperor's will. As for the reaction of the third prince, it was not within the scope of Xu Yunjin's consideration.Xu Yunjin never cared about the process, he only cared about the ending.

Zhao Ershao heaved a sigh of relief. Even though their family's status is not low, they are still far behind those in the royal family like the Third Prince. It is absolutely impossible for him to deal with the Third Prince. This matter can only let Xu Yunjin take the lead.

Shi Junji, who suddenly pushed the door open, interrupted the conversation between Xu Yunjin and Zhao Ershao. When Zhao Ershao saw Shi Junji coming in, he quickly closed his mouth and looked at Xu Yunjin. Xu Yunjin frowned without leaving a trace. Mei: "You go back first, I will find a way to solve it."

Of course, Zhao Ershao knew that it was not easy to talk about the Third Prince in front of Shi Junji, so he left.Shi Junji waited for Second Young Master Zhao to leave, then walked up to Xu Yunjin and sat down, coughed twice: "It turns out Second Young Master Zhao asked you to have dinner at noon today, no wonder you didn't go to Changping Palace at noon."

Xu Yunjin sneered: "Why did I not go to Changping Palace? I think you know the reason better than me, don't you?"

Shi Jun smiled awkwardly: "That..."

"Forget it." Xu Yunjin interrupted Shi Junji, "I don't care about this matter with you, I have other things to tell you." Immediately, he explained the inexplicable actions of the third prince to Shi Junji one by one. said.
