Chapter 315 Someone fell in love with the Queen at first sight!

When Cui Zheng accompanied his father to the capital from his hometown in Qinghe, he actually began to hear a lot of things about the Queen on the way.

This includes matters concerning the Queen's literary talent.

Especially after seeing the poems written by the Queen, he was completely immersed in them.

It is true that intellectuals look down on each other.

But if you really come across breathtaking poetry or articles, no matter how unwilling you are to accept it, you can't help but feel deeply moved in your heart.

Although Cui Zheng was also considered a scholar, he was not as good as his two brothers and many other brothers and sisters. His expertise was in the study of cultural relics and history.

But even so, when he saw the poems written by the Queen, he still couldn't help himself for a long time. Especially considering that they would be circulated in the future, he collected them all without authorization and planned to carve the words on bamboo slips or leave them on fur.

This was his habit, not only for the Empress, but also for the famous works of other great Confucian scholars or many important events.

But now

It turned out that his niece, who was a medical officer, had a whole bag of poems written by the Empress.

How could this not shock him!

Every poem currently circulating is a masterpiece, not to mention the many that have been passed down through the ages.

But now my niece has a whole bag!

It was also at this moment that Cui Zheng immediately realized that if this was true, judging by the poems written by the Queen, the top spot might very likely be taken by his niece!

After all, it was written by the Queen!

Cui Yu pursed his lips with a dull look on his face, still immersed in the fact that his daughter actually had someone she liked.

Cui Zheng, on the other hand, seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and looked at Cui Yuer and said, "Maybe it was His Royal Highness the King of Yue who asked Qingnv to come here?"

Hearing this, Cui Yu was stunned and immediately looked at Cui Zheng.

Cui Yuer frowned: "If that's the case, then His Royal Highness the King of Yue must have paid a heavy price?"

Cui Yu nodded: "That's absolutely right, my Qingnv can't possibly like someone like this!"

Cui Yuer said bluntly: "It's still yours, uncle. Sister Qingnu recognizes you, and after today, I think she hates you even more."

This sentence made Cui Yu cover his chest again, because it hurt so much!!

Cui Zheng looked at his brother, then at Cui Yu, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart about this girl Yu'er. He hadn't seen her for more than a year, and she was becoming more and more treacherous.

But he just thought about it in his mind, and said, "Why not go ask Qingnv?"

Cui Yuer looked helpless, and then looked at Cui Zheng: "Because of my second uncle, our whole family is hated, and whoever mentions us in front of Qingnv, Qingnv will be hated as well, not even the Queen."

Upon hearing this, Cui Zheng looked at his second brother, not knowing what to say.

But the next moment, Cui Zheng noticed Xun Kuang who had returned to his seat, and asked, "Shall I go find Xun Kuang and ask him?"

Cui Yu nodded immediately: "Go quickly! Be sure to ask Qingnv if she has someone she likes."

Cui Zheng curled his lips, not knowing what to say about his second brother.

Cui Yuer nodded. She was not interested in whether Maomao liked Liu Baishi or not. She came here today because of the poems and articles, and also to join in the fun with her third uncle. But since she met Maomao and knew that her sister had someone she liked, she had to find out.

What sister doesn’t gossip about her younger sister?

However, when thinking about this, Cui Yuer looked at the other side, at the Prince of An, and at Su Zhaoxin and the others, especially at Su Zhaoxin.

How about asking Zhao Xin? Isn't he with His Royal Highness the King of Yue?

No, this brat is talking nonsense and knows nothing. He might even annoy Sister Qingnv. It would be better if the Queen is here. It won’t matter if I go over to ask her. Besides, the situation is like this now. If I go over and let the Queen scold me, maybe I can see Sister Qingnv smile again.

Although she thought so, Cui Yuer also knew that how could the Queen come to such a place?

Thinking of this, Cui Yuer was about to look away, but suddenly

She saw Su Zhaoxin peeking at the seats next to her. She looked over and found that they were some young ladies she didn't recognize. She immediately scolded him in her heart, "You little brat is so rude again! I'll tell Lin Han when I get back!"

Su Zhaoxin's peeking was naturally noticed by Su Changan and the others.

After all, Su Zhaoxin's so-called peeking is actually no different from looking openly.

but

Just as Su Zhaoxin noticed that he had been discovered, he immediately retracted his head.

Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

But Su Changan didn’t have time to care about this, mainly because the cat’s strange behavior just now made Su Changan very concerned!

Maomao suddenly looked disgusted at the end, and it was obviously because of the relationship between Cui Yu and the others. Su Changan noticed this, so it was no big deal.

But before that.

Su Changan saw that Maomao was looking around and looked very irritable and anxious. It was obvious that he was waiting for something and was looking for that person!

Especially when Chen Xin came back, Maomao immediately stopped being like this!

Obviously, he is looking for someone secretly! He doesn't tell anyone!

This made Su Changan very concerned!

And looking at the mao mao at the moment, he was sitting there and no one knew what he was talking about with Xun Kuang and the others who had just returned to their seats.

Su Changan was staring at Maomao and the others.

Xia Fengxiang on the side looked at Su Changan like this and tried to hold back his laughter.

Although Su Changan has changed his appearance now, his eyes are still those familiar eyes.

So when Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan's eyes, he thought, he is so smart on weekdays, how come he hasn't figured it out yet? I really don't know what to say, he is so stupid!

Thinking of this, Xia Fengxiang reached out to wipe Su Changan's mouth.

Then, he turned his head and looked at the procuress on the field.

The madam of the Shihua Pavilion had finished her polite words and the music started playing again.

According to what the madam said, Liu Baishi would come out soon. This made many people present who had come for Liu Baishi excited, and they had already started taking out the poems they had prepared.

certainly

Some people have already started preparing to write it on the spot.

As to whether he had memorized it beforehand or really wrote it himself, it is unknown.

However, more people were still looking at the stage entrance, hoping for the appearance of that beautiful figure.

After all, how can a beautiful woman not be loved by others?

Su Changan really didn't care what would happen at this poetry reading, but looking at Maomao's current expression.

Su Changan turned his head and looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Tell me, who is Maomao waiting for?"

When Xia Fengxiang heard this, he rolled his eyes and cursed without any hesitation: "Stupid as hell!"

Su Changan was unhappy. He was just asking a question, but you scolded him. So he immediately said, "Xia Qingge!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Fengxiang glared at Su Changan: "What!"

Seeing that Xia Fengxiang was more imposing, Su Changan decided to settle the score later, but he would write it down first this time, so he shook his head and said, "Nothing, just a sudden shout."

Xia Fengxiang snorted coldly, then picked up a small biscuit and broke it in half, handed one half to Su Changan, took a bite, and turned to look at the chambers of commerce and the seats where the children of aristocratic families were sitting.

But when he looked over, Xia Fengxiang couldn't help but frown.

Because right there at the Chamber of Commerce, a young man in fancy clothes was looking at them.

From the moment they sat down, Xia Fengxiang noticed that the man was looking at them.

Just take a look, it's nothing.

But he kept watching it, and while watching he was saying something to his companions, which led the people around him to watch it too, and they were talking and laughing. This is very impolite!

The most important thing is that the person they are looking at seems to be Su Changan.

Therefore Xia Fengxiang was also a little angry.

Su Changan noticed that Xia Fengxiang looked unhappy, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Xia Fengxiang didn't say anything, just glanced at Su Changan and then looked over there.

Su Changan understood and looked towards the Chamber of Commerce.

but

Just as Su Changan looked over, he saw that the young man who had been watching them smiled, then stood up and bowed towards Su Changan and the others.

Xia Fengxiang looked and saw that the man didn't move at all.

But when Su Changan looked over, the other party immediately bowed and saluted. The meaning was obvious.

Su Changan immediately frowned, looked at Xia Fengxiang and asked, "Is that person trying to chat with me?"

After all, having been with Su Changan for a long time, Xia Fengxiang also understood some words, including the meaning of chatting up.

But before Xia Fengxiang could speak.

Su Changan glanced at the young man again, and then immediately looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Didn't I disguise myself to look ordinary? How could I be approached?"

Xia Fengxiang said: "Maybe this is your charm, being approached by a man, hehe."

Hearing this, Su Changan immediately said, "You can be jealous of anything, but don't be jealous of men."

Xia Fengxiang snorted.

However, Su Changan looked at the young man again, only to see that the young man was still smiling at him, and his companions beside him were talking about something, which made Su Changan break out in a cold sweat again.

But then he thought again and looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Isn't it obvious that we are a couple?"

Xia Fengxiang thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, they treat you and me as good sisters."

Hearing this, Su Changan curled his lips.

But suddenly.

Xia Fengxiang suddenly kissed Su Changan on the lips.

Although it was just a light touch, the tenderness and tenderness of the lips touching each other could be clearly felt.

Maybe it was because of the disguise, so we couldn't see Xia Fengxiang blushing, but there was still shame in his eyes.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan and said, "That's it, it looks like this!"

Su Changan pursed his lips: "One more time?"

Xia Fengxiang: "Get lost!"

Lian Wei and Yan Ruyu remained silent. They had seen these two people like this many times, so they had long learned the skill of turning a blind eye and a deaf ear.

but.

The people at the Southern Chamber of Commerce were all stunned.

But the next moment, one of them spoke up with a mocking look on his face: "Brother Liu, they are a couple."

Immediately, another person said with a smile: "It's over, it's over. Our famous brother Liu Zhaoyang finally fell in love with a girl, but it turned out that she is already taken."

Hearing what the two said, many people at the table around them started laughing.

One of them laughed, then looked at Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang and said with emotion: "As expected of the capital, this woman and this woman are a couple, and they came to the brothel together."

As soon as these words came out, the person who had spoken before immediately added: "And our Zhaoyang has taken a fancy to him."

Immediately!

Everyone laughed again.

The young man named Liu Zhaoyang had an angular face and was handsome and elegant. When he heard his friends mocking him, he could only smile helplessly.

But at the same time, looking at the two girls chatting and laughing with each other over there, Liu Zhaoyang felt helpless again.

Can.

Looking at Su Chang'an after his disguise, especially looking at those eyes from afar, Liu Zhaoyang's heart rippled slightly.

He didn't know what love at first sight was.

All I know is that when I saw the girl for the first time, I thought her eyes were so beautiful, like the stars and the bright moon in the sky.

Can.

Looking at the woman next to the girl again, especially since it was obvious that the woman had done that on purpose for him to see, Liu Zhaoyang felt helpless again.

The young man next to Liu Zhaoyang patted Liu Zhaoyang on the shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, we are only here in the capital to discuss business with so many foreign envoys because of the wedding of the Queen and His Majesty. Since they are a couple, just give up."

Liu Zhaoyang sighed, but his eyes looked at Su Changan again after he had changed his appearance.

At that moment, Su Changan just smiled.

This made Liu Zhaoyang stunned again, but looking at the woman who was smiling at Su Changan, he sighed again, picked up the wine cup and took a sip.

When the others at the table saw this, they all laughed and someone said, "In Suzhou, you, Liu Zhaoyang, have so many girls who admire and secretly like you. If those girls saw you like this, they would be sad."

Not all the people at the table were young men, there were also a few young ladies. They looked at Su Changan after he changed his appearance, and one of them said, "I wonder which family she is from. If Zhaoyang really likes her, you can ask around. Maybe they are like sisters."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaoyang immediately looked at the girl.

But before Liu Zhaoyang could say anything, the man who looked the oldest said, "It's better not to make trouble. The capital seems peaceful now, but have you forgotten what the president of the Chamber of Commerce told us to do when we came here? The most urgent thing is to close the deal tomorrow, and we also need to discuss cooperation with Dian Jiangchun."

When this person spoke, everyone at the table immediately became solemn.

Among them, Liu Zhaoyang stood up, saluted and said, "Brother Tan, Zhaoyang understands the seriousness of the matter."

The man named Tan Zhongyong heard this and nodded slightly. Then he glanced at the two girls, thought for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper Su from Dianjiangchun will be here soon. He is in the rouge business, so he must know the young ladies from all the big and small families in the capital. You can ask him later. If they are really a couple, then it's fine. If not, you can get to know them. After all, your Liu family has roots in the capital, so maybe you can give it a try."

Liu Zhaoyang thought about it and felt that it was feasible.

On the other side, the woman frowned and said, "Speaking of Shopkeeper Su, the banquet has already started, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Someone immediately said, "I heard that although this Shopkeeper Su is the third son of the Su family and the younger brother of the Queen, and he manages such a large shop, he never comes to places like the Flower House. Could it be that he is a little unhappy that we invited him to come through this poetry gathering?"

Tan Zhongyong shook his head and said, "No, I asked him. Although he is not interested in wine and women, he is not opposed to this place. Although Shihua Pavilion is a brothel, it is not an ordinary place because of the existence of Liu Baishi. Even many officials come here, not to mention that today is a poetry banquet. Moreover, today is the bridge built by Prime Minister Li, so he will not miss it. Maybe something happened on the way. After all, many people from foreign countries are negotiating business with him now."

While speaking, Tan Zhongyong glanced at Li Jiulang over there.

Wanli Chamber of Commerce is one of the top three chambers of commerce in the whole of Daxia. Although it does not have many industries in the capital, many of its industries are in the southeast and southwest.

But it was because they wanted to expand industries in the north that they rushed to Beijing.

Although he had only arrived in Beijing in the past two days, when he first arrived, Tan Zhongyong visited Li Jiulang directly because he was instructed by the president of the Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, these newly appointed young managers of the Chamber of Commerce have the opportunity to come into contact with some people in the capital.

The first to be affected is the business with Dianjiangchun.

Now, the only person who dominates the market is [Dian Jiang Chun].

Moreover, as an imperial merchant like their Wanli Chamber of Commerce, [Dianjiangchun]’s background is much stronger than theirs!

Let’s not talk about the Su family first. Just the Queen Mother represents the existence of the Emperor. With such a background, is there anyone in the entire Daxia who can compare to her?

Therefore, you must first reach a cooperative relationship with [Dian Jiang Chun] in order to reap huge profits!

Therefore, knowing that the poetry gathering at Shihua Pavilion was taking place today, Tan Zhongyong specially asked Li Jiulang to help him get to know Su Liheng.

Just get to know each other today, and we can talk about the rest tomorrow. Don't be in a hurry!

only

Tan Zhongyong glanced at the people at other seats and silently picked up the wine cup.

Since ancient times, officials and businessmen have been inseparable.

The Wanli Chamber of Commerce was actually composed of major families in the south, which was why it was so large.

In fact, he had another purpose for coming to Beijing this time.

That is, to contact some officials in the court who have connections with them and find out in detail whether the court really wants to take action against the southern families.

After all, the Ouyang family has clearly had a conflict with Zhao Yulang, who has been demoted.

Although it was the Ouyang family who cheated in the imperial examination,

The elders in the family still asked him to inquire about these things carefully.

As for Su Liheng

It is also a source from which you can inquire about this matter. After all, you don’t have to inquire about the affairs of the court in the court, you can also learn about it from other things!

At this time, someone said, "Zhaoyang, why don't you take this poem to Liu Baishi to show off? This was written by my father himself. Don't forget how good he is at poetry. Even Mu Xu Mu Da Jiji directly called him the 'Poetry King'."

As he spoke, he took out a folded piece of paper.
