The whole family of villains criticized her wildly, but the princess treated her with medical treatm

Mu Tingxue gave the Geng Tie to Yan Yang.

Yan Yang took the wooden box, untied the entangled gold thread, and looked at the birth date of his fiancée with soft eyes: "Tomorrow, the king will take it to Qintian Prison and ask the prison officer to combine it for us."

Mu Tingxue joked: "What if the horoscopes don't match?"

Yan Yang raised his eyebrows: "They must be a match made in heaven, and they will be together for a hundred years!"

If the old men of Qin Tian Prison dare to say even half a word that they don't like to hear, their beards will be trimmed.

Mu Tingxue couldn't help laughing. Her originally depressed mood suddenly became lighter: "By the way, I should have given you a pair of shoes in return. They will be ready for you within three days. What color do you like?"

Yan Yang was ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm. He just gently held her hand and said, "It's black."

"You've been very busy recently, almost living in the military camp."

"Lupan in the west is a vassal state of Yunhuang. The old king passed away last month. After Prince Lu Dongzan succeeded to the throne, he did not ask for a title from Yunhuang." When talking about military and political affairs, Yan Yang's expression became serious again. stand up.

"As the new leader of Xiayi, Lu Dongzan doesn't ask for a title from the imperial court, which means he has no intention of surrender."

Mu Tingxue frowned slightly, "There is a large amount of trade between Lufan and Yunhuang, as well as refined salt. Even if Lu Dongzan leads this group, he will not rebel easily."

Who would cut off the salt road?

"Once Lu Dongzan no longer claims to be a minister, he will definitely start a war with Yunhuang. There is also a Tatar with an ambiguous attitude next to Lu Fan. A Tatar princess came to Dongsang as his concubine last year."

Yan Yang has a heavy burden, to quell the chaos internally and conquer the barbarians externally. "Beiyu Kingdom has been defeated by our army continuously. We have to pay compensation year after year. I hate it deeply and may counterattack at any time for revenge."

Mu Tingxue noticed a mountain of eight hundred miles of urgent military intelligence letters on the table.

Yunhuang cannot live without a regent.

No matter how fierce the internal fighting within the party is, he still needs to be relied on to intimidate and attack the barbarians who are ready to move around.

If Yan Dang was defeated and the regent fell, it would be difficult to defend the border just by relying on the group of civil servants from Li Dang, let alone conquering cities and territories.

*. *. *

Half an hour later.

Mu Tingxue left the Zhenbei Military Camp, and the slightly drunk Yan Renqing also gave her a ride home.

"Feel sorry."

Maybe it was because he drank two more drinks that Renqing talked too much.

He has blurred phoenix eyes, purple jade belt, and a jade-like face. Under the moonlight, leaning against the window, his slender figure actually looks majestic and breathtaking.

Mu Tingxue sighed in her heart. She was worthy of the courtesan's good looks. She should have a few more of them to purify Yundu's looks.

"Okay, what are you apologizing for?"

"I heard from Mr. Qin Xiaohou that His Highness is here to deliver a posthumous invitation to my cousin." Renqing looked very remorseful and looked at her uneasily, "I'm sorry, I really don't know. Those shoes... "

"Don't worry."

Mu Tingxue did not doubt him. Seeing the redness at the end of his eyes, she smiled and said with relief, "Yangyang likes black shoes. I plan to make him a pair that suits him better."

The hands in Yan Renqing's long sleeves were slowly clenched into fists, and he said in an admiring tone: "You two have such a good relationship. After marriage, you will definitely be able to hold the case together and play the piano and the harp in harmony."

The carriage arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The mansion is built against the mountain, and the environment is quiet and elegant. It is already dark. At this time, this road should be deserted, but at this moment, at the door of the house of Shangshu's right servant She Yanxi, there are four people waiting there.

Not a disciple or bodyguard of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The leader was a man in his early thirties, luxuriously dressed and wearing a mink cloak. Behind him were four young men holding brocade boxes and food boxes.

"who?"

Mu Tingxue opened the apricot-colored curtain and asked.

Yan Renqing's eyes darkened and he replied: "There are thousands of salt merchants in Woyejiang, among which there are four major salt merchants. His name is Nangong Haozhi, one of the four major salt merchants. He wanted to get more salt from me, but unexpectedly I chased him all the way to Yundu."

Mu Tingxue was thinking, Nangong Haozhi?

This name - Tianqi Gong's eldest son is called Nangong Sizhi, and Su Mianmian's second young husband is called Nangong Xianzhi. They are brothers of the same generation.

The Nangong family would definitely not hand over such an important position to the four major salt merchants to a branch of the clan whose bloodline was too far away. It was most likely that he was the nephew of Duke Tianqi.

Nangong Haozhi has been pestering Yan Renqing for three months.

He is responsible for the Nangong family's salt business. Now that the price of salt has fallen again and again, the profits that salt merchants can get are also decreasing. In order to make up for the losses of the Nangong family, he had to beg Yan Renqing, the Woyejiang salt transport envoy, to deliver more salt to the Nangong family. he. (license)

But here's the problem. Ever since the marriage between Yan Mingyue and his cousin Nangong Ershao fell through, the relationship between the Yan family and the Nangong family has become tense. Many businesses that the two families had previously cooperated with have stopped. The new salt transport envoy Yan Renqing was also a master who did not have enough money and salt. Gold, silver, jewelry, skinny horses and beautiful ladies were all returned.

This made Nangong Hanzhi very anxious. In the past, Yanyin had a clearly marked price. Whoever gave more gifts to the Yanyin envoy would get more.

He was really able to lose face. He kept pestering him all the way from Zhenzhou near the Woye River to Yundu. He was blocked in front of the salt transport envoy's house. He came to deliver delicacies, delicacies, banknotes and jewelry three times a day, eager to use " Move the other person with a sincere heart.

"I pay my respects to Mr. Yan, and wish him long life and long life; I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, and wish you a thousand years of life!"

Nangong Haozhi stepped forward to greet him, bowed deeply and paid homage.

Yan Renqing didn't appreciate it and said coldly: "Don't waste your efforts. There is no point in trying to please me."

Nangong Haozhi was like a dog-skin plaster, and his face was thicker than the city wall. Instead of retreating, he licked his smile and said to Mu Tingxue: "I have long heard that the eldest princess is a goddess who descended to earth. Now I have Mu Tianyan. I am so lucky! Your Highness, your I have a lot of face, so I kindly ask you to put in a few kind words for me."

The boy behind him presented two food boxes, "This box is Jiangnan's old rock sugar cake, dedicated to Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess to taste; the other box is Woyejiang's most famous green plum wine, presented to your servant She Yan Shangshu grown ups."

Mu Tingxue discovered that Nangong Haozhi was really a damn talent.

Very good at catering to people's needs.

"Master Yan!" Nangong Haozhi's eyes turned slyly, "You and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess are standing together. You are truly a talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven..."

"shut up!"

Yan Renqing was struck in his mind and suddenly became angry, with a fierce light in his eyes.

In a few days, she will be his sister-in-law. What is the intention of saying such things in public?
