Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Xiao Qi looked at Chen Lang's back and said, "This kid is different from other people from the Southern Dynasty."

"Have the guts!"

After saying that, he went back to the hall to continue drinking, humming.

Xiao Lei yelled, "Dad, you don't care about me anymore?"

Xiao Qi's voice drifted over: "If you have the guts, go seek revenge on Yin Ping yourself, don't bother me."

Xiao Lei felt like vomiting blood.

"Brother, you have to do it for me..." Helpless Xiao Lei could only pin his hopes on his brother.

But the two brothers didn't have much affection for each other on a daily basis. Faced with Xiao Lei's "quest for help", Xiao Buyan chose to ignore it and walked straight into the hall.

Xiao Lei really vomited blood this time.

Xiao Buyan came to the hall and saw his father sitting in the chair again, drinking leisurely. His blood pressure instantly soared.

However, no matter how high my blood pressure is or how angry I am, I can only choose to endure it when facing my own father.

Xiao Buyan bowed respectfully and said, "Dad, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Qi looked at his least favorite but most promising son with mixed feelings. He put down his wine glass, sighed, and said, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Daddy." Xiao Buyan sat down and said, "Dad, although Chen Lang, the special envoy for the wedding, is not an official position, he can still be considered an envoy after all."

"So many eyes are on you, everyone in the court. How can you..."

Xiao Qi's emotions instantly disappeared, leaving only anger. He slammed the table and roared, "I'm the Queen Mother's brother. Do I need the approval of those people in the court to entertain guests?"

Xiao Buyan stood up and said with his neck stiff, "You are just an ordinary guest, no one will care about you."

"But Chen Lang is an envoy from the Southern Dynasty, so that won't work!"

"And as the Queen Mother's younger brother, you should set an example, not..."

Xiao Qi also stood up suddenly and cursed: "Shut up!"

"You've said so much, aren't you just worried that if I fall, it will affect you?"

Xiao Buyan said loudly: "That's right!"

"I've worked so hard and so hard to achieve what I have today. I can't let it be ruined just because you were drunk and confused!"

Xiao Qi said, "You're just a little bastard, are you worthy enough to challenge me?"

"Get out of here right now!"

Xiao Buyan was not afraid at all and said, "Because I came from a poor background, I cherish everything I have gained."

"You said I was a little bastard, then why didn't you take care of your crotch back then!"

Xiao Qi was so angry that his face turned green. He grabbed the wine jug on the table and wanted to smash it on Xiao Buyan's forehead.

However, after he raised the wine jug, he was unable to throw it away.

After a long silence, Xiao Qi sat down dejectedly on the chair and said in a miserable voice, "You don't understand... You don't understand anything..."

Xiao Buyan said, "If there is anything my son doesn't understand, please explain it to me, Daddy."

Xiao Qi said, "I, the Prime Minister of the South, am nothing but a piece of shit. Among all the civil and military officials in the court, as well as the royal family and nobles, how many of them look up to your father? And how many of them have ever visited our family?"

"Although Chen Lang is only a special envoy escorting the bride, and not a proper Southern Dynasty official, did you know that your aunt met him in the palace's back garden this morning?"

"In such a large Southern Dynasty delegation, only Chen Lang has received this honor. Meeting him is a real honor for us!"

"It also shows that your aunt and I will always be on the same side."

"Although I love wine like my life and am drunk all day long, I still know right from wrong."

At this point, Xiao Qi took another swig of wine, his voice becoming a little ferocious as he said, "Now everyone in the court is hoping your aunt will die. The more times like this, the more we must stand with your aunt."

Xiao Buyan was stunned.

He never imagined that Jiumengzi's father would have such unique political vision.

If my father is not talking nonsense, then what he said is actually very insightful.

The succession to the throne of the Liao Kingdom is currently in chaos. Everyone is busy taking sides and planning for the future, but they seem to have forgotten that the one in power is still my aunt.

As long as my aunt is alive, the power of the Liao Kingdom will never fall into the hands of others, and the person who will eventually sit on that chair must have been approved by my aunt.

So standing with my aunt is actually the best way right now.

"So this is what my father thought. It was my son who was reckless." After Xiao Buyan figured it out, he bowed to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi was very proud.

If my memory serves me correctly, this should be the first time that Xiao Buyan showed his genuine admiration for me.

"Father, what did you talk about with Chen Lang?" Xiao Buyan asked.

Xiao Qi said, "It's business matters."

Xiao Buyan was stunned: "What kind of business requires you to come forward to do it?"

Xiao Qi said: "It's not me, it's Brother Xiu."

"Master Xiu?"

"Have you heard of this wine? Hongyanzui, a special supply for the Liao Dynasty's royal family. Chen Lang knows the person who brews Hongyanzui, and he is Zhu Sui'an's nephew. He can cross the border of Yan State and send the wine directly to our Liao Dynasty."

"During this period, we need Brother Xiu's Feihu Division to provide protection, otherwise this business will not last long."

Xiao Buyan frowned and thought for a long time, then said, "Dad, this is not right."

Xiao Qi asked, "What's wrong? I didn't spend a cent, and not only can I drink all I want at Hongyanzui, I can also get a 10% or 20% bonus. How can I not see anything wrong?"

Xiao Buyan said, "Dad, Brother Xiu is hiding from Chen Lang. You arranged for Brother Xiu to meet him just for a deal. This is going to cause trouble."

Xiao Qi asked, "Why is Brother Xiu hiding from Chen Lang?"

"The Southern Dynasty hopes to postpone the wedding date of the Fourth Prince and Princess Yongjia, but Brother Xiu and some other adults hope to get this done quickly to avoid any further complications." Xiao Buyan said.

Xiao Qi asked, "Is that what your aunt meant?"

Xiao Buyan said, "I don't understand what auntie means."

Xiao Qi rolled his eyes and said, "That's it. I just said that our family's every move will follow your aunt. As long as your aunt doesn't object, no matter how much others object, you don't have to pay attention."

Xiao Buyan pondered and said, "Then my son will go to the palace tomorrow to test my aunt's attitude?"

Xiao Qi said meaningfully: "There's no need to test it. You just need to calculate the profit of Hongyanzui, and you will understand that your aunt will definitely not object to this deal."

"We in the Liao Dynasty...are short of money."
