Before Chen Lang could answer, Yelu Zaixian's terrified shouts were heard outside the car.

"You, you, you...what are you doing here?"

The guard who was negotiating with Chen Lang turned around hurriedly, his expression suddenly changed. He didn't care about Chen Lang anymore and ran over to protect his master.

At this moment, the mentality of watching the show overcame his fear. Chen Lang crouched down and moved to the door of the carriage, looking out.

Sheng Yinping was seen riding a red horse, blocking Yelu Zaixian's carriage.

"I came to see my good friend. Do you have any objections?" Sheng Yinping raised the whip, as if she would whip it immediately if Yelu Zaixian dared to say no.

Yelu Zaixian was anxious and angry. He asked, "Your good friend? Who is he?"

"Princess Yongjia of the Southern Dynasty." Sheng Yinping said.

"How could she be yours..."

"I said yes, you don't agree?"

Yelu Zaixian was naturally dissatisfied in his heart, but he really didn't have the courage to say it out loud.

When Empress Dowager Xiao arranged Sheng Yinping's marriage to him, Yelu Zaixian still had a vision of using various means to educate Sheng Yinping after marriage, so that he would know that the men of Liao Kingdom were not someone who could be bullied at will by a woman like her.

At the same time, marrying Sheng Yinping as his wife would not only allow him to train her, but also give him access to the huge network of contacts behind her.

Unfortunately, not only did this vision fail to come true, but he was also beaten by Sheng Yinping in front of several princes, and lost all face.

不过即便被盛银屏暴揍一顿,耶律宰贤还是憧憬着能娶她。

Who made Sheng Yinping have such a strong background? Only by marrying her can he have a chance to get his hands on the throne.

Only after the marriage with the Southern Dynasty princess was finalized did Yelu Zaixian finally realize that he would never be able to marry Sheng Yinping in his lifetime.

Yelu Zaixian expressed his dissatisfaction with the marriage by refusing to meet Princess Yongjia, and then he found out... no one cared about his feelings!

Today I came to see Princess Yongjia and found that this girl is pretty. It would be nice to marry her home as a vase. As the small head defeated the big head, Yelu Zaixian thought about exercising his power as a husband in advance during the subsequent outing.

For this reason, he even asked his guards to warn Chen Lang not to cause trouble.

But at this critical moment, Sheng Yinping appeared again, and kept saying that Yongjia was given to her good friend.

The disciple of the imperial teacher, and a good friend of the princess of the Southern Dynasty, do you really think I'm a fool?

Sheng Yinping was too lazy to guess what Yelu Zaixian was thinking. She squeezed her legs against the horse's belly, and the horse came to Chen Lang's carriage with a thud.

"Hey." Sheng Yinping waved his whip as a greeting: "You go back first."

Chen Lang frowned and said, "No, I must accompany you."

Sheng Yinping leaned forward, resting her head on the horse's neck, and said, "Go back. Someone is waiting for you at the Honglu Temple."

"Princess Yongjia, I'm with you, nothing will happen to you."

"I promise, if Yelu Zaixian touches her, I will break one of his fingers."

Chen Lang's expression changed slightly: "Who is waiting for me?"

"You'll know when we get back." Sheng Yinping said with a smile, and then said to the driver, "Take Master Chen back to the Honglu Temple."

The coachman naturally listened to Sheng Yinping and decisively turned the horse's head and galloped towards the Honglu Temple.

On the other side, seeing Chen Lang's carriage going away, Ying'er also panicked and hurriedly signaled the driver to return, but the driver was unmoved.

A moment later, Sheng Yinping jumped onto the carriage and said, "Miss Ying'er, I'm here, don't be afraid."

It’s strange to say, but after seeing Sheng Yinping, Ying Er instantly calmed down.

At this moment, Sheng Yinping gave her a stronger sense of security than Chen Lang.

The words are divided into two parts.

After Chen Lang returned to the Honglu Temple, he met the person who was waiting for him as Sheng Yinping mentioned.

The Feihu Division's pacification envoy, Yelu Xiu Ge.

He was still dressed as a merchant, sitting in the yard drinking tea. When he saw Chen Lang, he pointed to the stone bench in front of him and said, "Mr. Chen, please sit down."

Chen Lang gestured for He Jinling to leave, then walked up to Yelu Xiu Ge alone. After taking a seat, he asked, "Master Xiu Ge, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Yelu Xiuge put down his teacup and said with a calm smile, "We've recently apprehended quite a few spies from the Southern Dynasty. Among them is a tavern owner named Yu, who seems to have a good relationship with you."

"I heard you taught him how to cook. Why?"

Chen Lang said: "Because he and I are both from Yan."

"Is it that simple?" Yelu Xiu Ge said.

Chen Lang asked, "Master Xiu, do you suspect that I am also a spy?"

Yelu Xiu Ge smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, please don't misunderstand me. I am just asking according to custom. I have no other intentions, let alone doubting you."

"Besides, you and I are business partners. If you are a spy, I will be in trouble too."

Chen Lang asked, "So, Brother Xiu came to me just to tell me this?"

Yelu Xiuge asked, "Master Chen, do you recognize Peng Yang?"

Chen Lang said, "I recognize him. Isn't he the official who was responsible for receiving me before?"

"What? He's a spy too?"

Yelu Xiuge said: "He is really a spy."

"And he holds a very high position. He is the head of the Southern Dynasty's secret agency stationed in Shangjing."

"Master Chen, this Peng Yang once spent some time alone with you at the Honglu Temple. What did he say to you?"

Chen Lang took a deep breath and said, "I just talked about some precautions for the marriage, nothing else."

Yelu Xiuge asked, "Really?"

Chen Lang nodded.

Yelu Xiuge picked up the teapot and said, "The Liao people love to drink tea. Every year, they have to buy a large amount of tea from Dayan to meet the needs of the royal family and nobles. This expense is a bit too high, and the national treasury can hardly afford it."

Chen Lang frowned and said, "Brother Xiu, if you have anything to say, please speak directly."

Yelu Xiuge said: "In this route of smuggling Hongyanzui, tea leaves should also be included. Lu Tong will discuss the specific details with you."

Chen Lang said, "Brother Xiu, it's not appropriate for you to use the Red Beauty Drunk method to do business with the Fanyang Lu family."

Yelu Xiuge said: "I think it is very suitable."

Chen Lang said, "It seems I have no room to refuse?"

Yelu Xiuge said, "I can pretend I don't know about Li Junhui asking you to send Yelu Zongwang back."

Chen Lang was silent.

Yelu Xiu Ge stood up, turned his neck, and after a series of clicking sounds, he smiled with satisfaction.

"Li Junhui is old after all."

"Ten years ago, he would never have devised such a flawed plan."

Chen Lang secretly clenched his fists, but did not dare to refute.

"Peng Yang is a man. I will give him the highest treatment of a death row inmate." Yelu Xiu Ge walked slowly out of the courtyard. "As for the business between you and me, as long as Master Chen doesn't do anything reckless, this line will continue."

"Since Master Chen is a businessman, he should understand the principle that harmony brings wealth."

"If you do business honestly, you can make a fortune safely and steadily."

"If you mess around like that, you'll be the next Peng Yang."
