Comprehensive film and television: Youyou Biography

"Mr. Murong, and Lord Jiedushi, even though my Aolong Castle is just a merchant, you must not underestimate us. My sister-in-law is the regent princess! Even if you meet her, you have to pay your respects. In this way, our Aolong Castle can be regarded as a royal family!" Shi Wujie said slowly with a smile on his face.

Murong Fu's heart tightened when he heard this. He realized that he had forgotten this. Because Aolong Fort had always kept a low profile, he almost forgot that the Fort Master of Aolong Fort had married a princess. And this princess was not ordinary. She was the only beloved daughter of the current emperor. Not only was she loved, but she also held considerable power. Not to mention the personal soldiers that the emperor had specially prepared for the princess. They were all carefully selected elites!

Murong Fu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Why was he so careless? He quickly bowed his hands and smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry. I was careless."

Lord Zhu, who was standing by, saw this and quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Brother Wujie, we are all friends, why do we have to be so serious? Wouldn't this make both of us a little embarrassed?"

Shi Wujie raised his lips slightly, and said with a half-smile: "Master Zhu is right, we are all friends. But there are always some villains in this world who like to stir up trouble and cause trouble for no reason."

Zhu Bingjin quickly responded, "No, no, brother Wujie, you are too polite."

Shi Wujie looked at the sky and said with a smile, "It's getting late today. How about we find a time another day and go to Aolong Castle to get together?"

"Of course I will." Zhu Bingjin answered confidently.

After Shi Wujie turned and left, Master Bai and Zhu Bingjin also stood up and prepared to leave together. At this moment, Murong Fu suddenly stopped Zhu Bingjin and said with a smile on his face: "Sir, I have a small request. I wonder if I should say it or not?"

Seeing this, Zhu Bingjin stopped and looked at Murong Fu curiously, saying, "Oh? Mr. Murong, what do you want to tell me? Feel free to say it."

Murong Fu hurriedly stepped forward and said flatteringly: "Sir, I have always been interested in doing business. I want to do some small business recently. I wonder if you can give me some food to eat?"

After hearing this, Zhu Bingjin frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Master Murong, this is a business, of course it's OK. However, the taxes must still be paid, and the tribute must be made on time."

Master Bai also echoed, "Yes, Master Murong, with the imperial court backing us up, what can't we accomplish?"

Murong Fu nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, of course. Sir, I have another favor to ask of you. Can you help me?"

Zhu Bingjin looked at Murong Fu and said, "Mr. Murong, just speak frankly if you have something to say."

Murong Fu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sir, I heard that the salt permits for the six northern provinces are in short supply. I wonder if you can help me get some?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bingjin's face darkened and he said, "The salt permits have already been issued. If we want to get them now, I'm afraid we can only rob them."

Murong Fu waved his hands and explained: "Your Excellency has misunderstood. I am not going to steal the salt permits. I just want to ask for your help in doing the official paperwork. As for the profits from the monopoly, we can discuss it later."

After hearing this, Zhu Bingjin smiled and praised, "Mr. Murong, you really have a good business brain! However, let me think about this for a few more days. I will let you know the result when I have it."

"Thank you very much, sir." Murong Fu said gratefully.

……

Wuhen told Wuji that Wujie said Zhu Bingjin had accepted their gifts. Wuji said, "We just sent some small gifts to test Zhu Bingjin, but we didn't expect him to show his true colors so quickly." Liang Yushi heard this and was furious. She wanted to kill Zhu Bingjin immediately. Wujie stopped her and persuaded her, "Yushi, don't be impulsive. Now is not the time to kill Zhu Bingjin."

Wuji also echoed Wujie's words and advised Liang Yushi to calm down. He said: "Yushi, do you think it is so easy to kill an official appointed by the court? This is a serious crime that will cost you your head!" However, Liang Yushi simply refused to listen. She shouted excitedly: "I don't care! I want to fight with Zhu Bingjin for my life. At worst, we will die together!"

Seeing Liang Yushi so excited, Wuhen quickly tried to calm her down and said, "Yushi, don't get excited. Listen to me. Although Zhu Bingjin accepted our gift, it doesn't mean we can kill him easily. If we do it now, not only will we get ourselves killed, but we may also implicate more people."

Liang Yushi disagreed. She retorted, "I don't care! Anyway, my father's revenge must be avenged!" Wuji was angry when he saw her being so stubborn. He accused her, "Yushi, why are you so impulsive? Do you think this can solve the problem?"

Liang Yushi glared at Wuji and said, "I don't need your help! I can handle my own affairs!" She turned around and was about to leave. Wuhen quickly grabbed her and said, "Yushi, don't be like this. It's not that we don't want to help you, but now is not the right time. Calm down and listen to what we have to say."

Liang Yushi stopped and looked at Wuhen, with a hint of anger still in his eyes.

Wuhen sighed and said, "We are civilians, he is an official, we can't do anything."

Yu Shi said expressionlessly, "The arranged marriage was originally a promise made by the previous generation. Now that my father is gone, this promise has been buried with him. There is no relationship between us anymore, so why should I expect your help?"

Liang Yushi felt a pang of sadness when she thought of this. She thought of her father and all the things that happened in the past, and tears could not help but flow down. She choked up and said, "My father and I are stupid, we are dumb, and we have always treated you as relatives. My father once raised me as a boy, hoping that I could be as strong as a man..."

Wuhen felt bad when he saw Liang Yushi's sad face. He quickly comforted her, "Yushi, don't say that. Although we are not related by blood, the feelings we have had for so many years are not fake. My brother and I will never forget the sacrifices you and your daughter made for us. We will also treat the injustice you have suffered as our own business."

Zhao Yang raised his lips slightly, and said with a smile: "We can't easily touch Zhu Bingjin for the time being. After all, he is involved in too many places, and one move will affect the whole body. However, it is easy to create some small troubles for him."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shi could not help but frown, showing dissatisfaction on his face, and muttered: "Can we just watch him being arrogant and domineering there?"

Seeing this, Zhao Yang quickly comforted him, "Of course not. Although Zhu Bingjin cannot be moved now, Master Bai beside him can still be moved."

Yu Shi's eyes lit up and he asked, "So what exactly should we do?"

Zhao Yang smiled confidently and replied, "In my opinion, Zhu Bingjin should have fallen into the trap we set. Now we just need to wait patiently for the fish to take the bait."

Shi Wuji, who was standing by, looked at Zhaoyang in surprise and asked hesitantly, "Madam, you haven't already made a move, have you?"

Zhaoyang smiled slightly and kept the secret: "Hehe, if nothing unexpected happens, Master Bai will disappear from this world soon, and no one will suspect us. By then, everyone will think that it was Murong Fu who did it, after all, he has been so eager to go along with Zhu Bingjin. In this way, we can not only get rid of Master Bai, but also test Zhu Bingjin's attitude towards Master Bai and Murong Fu, and see in his heart, in which Master Bai, his confidant who has been with him for many years, is more important, or is the benefit offered by Murong Fu more tempting."

"Sister-in-law, do you want them to kill each other?" Wujie asked.

"Yes." Zhaoyang nodded.

……

After Zhu Bingjin returned to his room, he could not wait to open the gifts. The first thing he saw was the ginseng sent by Murong Fu, which was a very valuable gift. However, when he picked up the ginseng, he found that there were many silver bills hidden underneath.

Zhu Bingjin was secretly delighted. The amount of these silver notes was not small! In comparison, the small amount of silver sent by Aolongbao seemed insignificant.

At this time, Master Bai came in and saw Zhu Bingjin checking the gifts. He smiled and asked, "Master Zhu, are you satisfied with these gifts?"

Zhu Bingjin smiled slightly and said, "Well, not bad. However, I am more concerned about the salt permit issue."

Master Bai nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Master Zhu. I have been paying attention to the salt permit issue. At present, it seems that all parties are fighting each other. We might as well sit back and watch the tigers fight. When they are both defeated, it will not be too late to take action."

Zhu Bingjin felt that Master Bai's words made sense, so he said, "Well, let's do as you say. However, we can't stay out of it completely, and we still have to keep a close eye on their movements."

Master Bai replied, "Yes, Master Zhu. By the way, I have arranged for someone to do the thing you asked me to do before."

Zhu Bingjin immediately perked up and asked, "Oh? How's it going?"

Master Bai replied, "Su Guangping's house has been completely burned down, and Big Beard and his men are looking for the arsonist. However, there is no clue yet."

Zhu Bingjin frowned and said, "We must find the arsonists as soon as possible and never let them escape. This matter is of great importance and we must eradicate the root of the problem!"
