The fish pond connects the past and present, and the tyrants of the fallen country seek fame every d

Seeing this, Xiao Yanheng had no choice but to give up.

Simply tell Long Fei the truth, "We don't have anything precious to offer to the gods right now, so let's try to get some good things from those powerful people first."

Although his private treasury was empty, Xiao Yanheng didn't seem to care about it. He believed that there was always a way to solve these problems.

Long Fei also nodded vigorously to show that he agreed with his opinion.

"Your Majesty is quite right. I will do it immediately. Order my men to keep an eye on those dandies. If they commit any offense, they will be arrested, interrogated, fined, and released."

Long Fei's words made Xiao Yanheng sigh softly. This method of handling things was good. At least it could avoid the trouble caused by excessive merits.

After the other party left, Xiao Yanheng took out a letter from his sleeve and carefully unfolded it. There was handwriting that was familiar to Su Yuan on it.

After reading the letter carefully several times, he wrote down his thoughts and solutions on paper.

"And Deng Zhuo, light the incense and deliver the letter."

Deng Zhuo and I were used to this kind of indifference. We just treated it as an ordinary task and didn't pay much attention to the content.

In the mansion in the city, Su Yuan was anxiously waiting for the time to meet with the old man of the Yu family.

An irrepressible nervousness and anticipation could be seen in her eyes. She had mailed the important letter the day after the banquet.

It was not until this morning that the long-awaited reply finally arrived in her hands.

After opening it impatiently and reading the plan proposed by Xiao Yanheng, she was very surprised because the content was far beyond her expectations.

Finally she folded the letter carefully and put it back where it belonged.

People are so different. Why didn’t I think of this situation?

Su Yuan couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. She looked like a plant that had lost its vitality, and even her eyes seemed a little empty.

Anyone passing by could notice that something was wrong with her, and this change in her mood made the air heavy.

Xie Ling'er was quietly doing her homework in the living room. Seeing Su Yuan like this, she gently asked Yang Sheng beside her, "Brother Zhu, what happened to Sister Yuanyuan?"

She asked in a low and worried tone, afraid of disturbing Su Yuan's mood.

Yang Sheng followed her gaze and said, "It's okay, just focus on your homework."

Although he said this, he was actually a little worried inside.

After saying this, he immediately stood up and walked to Su Yuan's side, patted her shoulder gently, and comforted her: "I'm just going to see Mr. Yu, don't worry so much."

He tried to soothe the woman who looked very anxious by speaking as gently as possible.

Su Yuan said dejectedly: "It's not because of this, it's because of other reasons!"

There was a hint of helplessness and unwillingness in his words.

Out of professional ethics, Yang Sheng immediately shut his mouth. He knew it was inappropriate to say anything more at this time.

Su Yuan picked up a pillow in annoyance and kept hitting it, as if trying to vent her inner dissatisfaction and confusion in this way.

Xie Ling'er took a quick glance out of the corner of her eye and felt a little scared.

It took a long time until Su Yuan's arm gradually stopped moving before she came to her senses.

"Yang Sheng, come with me tomorrow."

Su Yuan suddenly spoke, sounding a little tired.

Yang Sheng nodded. Since his employer had given the order, he certainly had no reason to refuse.

Seeing him so obedient, Su Yuan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said, "Don't you want to know why I asked you to accompany me?"

There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, as if she wanted to see whether Yang Sheng would question this decision.

Yang Sheng replied calmly: "It doesn't matter. I only care about protecting you now. Nothing else matters."

His voice was as steady as ever, as if nothing could shake him in the slightest.

After hearing this, Su Yuan stared at Yang Sheng for a long time before speaking: "You always say that Situ Yefeng is pretending, but in fact, you are almost the same!"

There was a hint of sarcasm in her words, as well as a hint of joking.

A hint of surprise appeared on Yang Sheng's face, and then he immediately returned to his serious expression.

"If you have some free time, why not think carefully about what gift to bring?"

He changed the subject and suggested that, after all, it was more important now to be fully prepared for the upcoming meeting.

Hearing this, Su Yuan started to have a headache again.

Choosing a gift was indeed a headache, but she knew that for such an important occasion, it had to be carefully prepared.

You definitely can't just go to the door with some fruit, as this might make the Yu family feel that you are not sincere.

Considering the details of gift giving, it is obviously more appropriate to choose a gift that can reflect the thoughtfulness.

The safest option is to bring a few antiques with you.

After all, in traditional concepts, exquisite ancient artworks not only reflect the taste of the donor, but also express respect for their family culture without making people feel abrupt or disrespectful.

Su Yuan decided to go to the warehouse in the villa first to see what little gadgets were left there.

I have accumulated quite a few treasures over the years, but each one carries a story or a specific memory, so choosing isn’t easy.

"Brush, ink, paper, inkstone? Or this Guanyin statue?"

Su Yuan hesitated between the two, and after much consideration, she finally chose the four treasures of the study: brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

She believes that such items that are both practical and culturally rich are more in line with the interests of the elderly.

What if Mr. Yu doesn’t like Buddha statues?

Wouldn't that be counterproductive, making your visit seem awkward and inappropriate?

In order to avoid this situation and to be on the safe side, Su Yuan finally decided to bring this set of exquisite stationery as a gift.

The next morning, when the sky was just turning pale, Su Yuan was already ready to go.

She came to the gate of Yu Mansion with the visiting card that Yu Nanxi had prepared in advance.

This place is exactly where the grand birthday party was held a few days ago. Compared with the brightly lit scene at night, it looks particularly quiet and remote during the day.

However, even at this point in time, the grandeur of the manor has not diminished in the slightest.

Although it was not as lively and noisy as a banquet, the air was still filled with a solemn and elegant atmosphere.

Just as they were about to drive there directly, they were stopped by the guard at the gate and were told that they needed to change to the electric sightseeing bus specially arranged by the Yu Mansion before they could continue on their journey.

The driver of this car seemed to have not received any visitors for a long time.

When he saw the name tag in his hand, a rare look of curiosity and surprise immediately appeared on his face.

"Miss, it is truly an honor for our Yu Mansion that you can come and visit the old master in person!"

There was a clear hint of flattery in his tone, trying to please the passengers in exchange for some extra tips.

Who knows if the old man is really happy?
