Wen Kai had been in the underworld for many years and knew about Fifth Master.
He laughed when he heard his cousin say that.
"You still know this Fifth Master?"
"I know." In her past life, she had studied every potential partner in order to make money. Unfortunately, she died before she could cooperate with Fifth Master.
"Then what else do you know?"
Chen Siyuan thought for a moment, "If my cousin wants to get some porcelain, there is a Mark family in Wu Kingdom. It's best not to have any contact with people from that family."
"Why?" I've never heard of this family in the martial arts world, and I don't know much about them.
Seeing Chen Siyuan's confident demeanor, I wanted to hear her story.
Since you're going to the Kingdom of Wu, it'll be beneficial to listen to more information.
"The Mark family is not peaceful. There should be some internal conflicts and fierce fighting in the family recently."
"You know about this too?"
Chen Siyuan laughed, "What's the big deal? In business, you have to be observant and attentive. If you're not prepared beforehand, you'll suffer losses."
Wen Kai felt that he had made the right choice in seeking out Chen Siyuan.
Her few words helped me a lot.
Thinking it over, he added, "How about we go together? Things haven't been peaceful in the capital lately, so leaving might be a good thing."
Chen Siyuan refused without even thinking, "No, I can't leave here."
"oh?"
Chen Siyuan smiled brightly, "I'll soon be welcoming an even larger number of customers, and I want to make a killing."
"Your business has been doing very well lately."
"According to my plan, I should be busier next spring; this is just the beginning." I'll really make a fortune then, and I plan to transfer a few shops around that time.
As the saying goes, "A tall tree catches the wind," and Chen Siyuan understood this principle.
According to her own plan, unless it involves fabric, she will not leave the capital during this period.
"Okay!" Wen Kai didn't say much, but later, to express his gratitude, he still invited Chen Siyuan to dinner.
Neither of them felt burdened by their social status. They casually found a shop, ordered some signature dishes, and began to eat.
While eating, Chen Siyuan talked about some of the customs of the Wu Kingdom and what to pay attention to in the places they passed through.
Wen Kai listened attentively.
At that moment, he felt that Chen Siyuan was a treasure.
I only mentioned the Kingdom of Wu, yet she knew so much, even the customs along the way.
Finally, she spoke in a pompous, old-fashioned tone, much like Wen Tonghai, saying, "Big cousin, remember this: harmony brings wealth."
"Haha..." A familiar laugh came from outside.
Wen Tao arrived shortly after.
"You two are drinking, but you didn't include me?" Wen Tao said, sounding very aggrieved. The moment he sat down, he drank three glasses in a row to satisfy his craving before finally putting down his glass.
"Why are you here?" Wen Kai frowned. He had finally managed to talk to his cousin alone, so what was he doing here?
"Nothing much. I heard that my older brother came to see my cousin and thought it would be boring without me."
Chen Siyuan smiled at the person's shamelessness.
It's unclear how they found this place; clearly, Wen Tao used his thick skin to completely ignore the dissatisfaction in Wen Kai's eyes.
No matter how uncomfortable I feel, he's still my brother.
Wentao is a good talker, and his arrival made the atmosphere even better.
When they left, Wen Kai and Wen Tao escorted Chen Siyuan back to the General's Mansion.
As soon as Chen Siyuan entered the gate of the General's Mansion, Wen Kai and Wen Tao, who had turned to leave, both changed their expressions.
After years of being brothers, neither of them said anything.
Wen Tao continued on his way to the Wen family in his carriage. Halfway there, he accidentally bumped into another carriage coming from the side while turning a corner. Fortunately, there was no danger, and the two carriages soon went their separate ways.
After returning to the Wen family home, Wen Tao seemed exhausted from the day and went straight back to his own courtyard.
I took a shower as usual and then lay down to rest.
Wen Tao lay on the bed for a long time without falling asleep.
Thinking about what I saw today.
I originally just wanted to give it away as a gift, but I never expected to encounter this situation.
Hopefully, nothing goes wrong with Wen Kai, otherwise he won't be able to explain it to his family.
He was very curious about whose people were following him all the way to the General's Mansion.
Could it be that he's worried about his cousin's safety?
How could a woman like her, without any martial arts skills, possibly escape the dangers of these open and hidden attacks?
......
Under the cover of night, several figures sped across the sky above the capital.
They moved so fast that those who saw them thought they were seeing things, but when they looked again, there was nothing there.
Click—
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck.
As the lights illuminated the night, a vast expanse of white stretched out, outlining the somewhat menacing shadows of the forest outside the city cast upon the ground.
In this grove of trees, several dark figures flew by like shooting stars.
At first, the group was quite far apart, but later, the person in front seemed to be injured, and their speed gradually slowed down.
Those following behind were not in a hurry; they strolled along at a leisurely pace, always maintaining the same distance.
Suddenly, the figure that had been flying across the treetops lost its strength and fell straight to the ground.
Immediately afterward, the group of people behind him all headed towards where that person was.
At first, the man tried to escape, but was eventually forced to come to a big tree. Leaning against the tree, he warily stared at the masked men in front of him.
"Who are you?" The person who spoke had his face covered by a black cloth, with only his eyes showing.
"Eighth Prince, it's been a long time!"
Qiao Yuchen slowly walked out of the night.
The person who was wearing a mask stepped aside, allowing Qiao Yuchen to come forward.
"It's you?" The man with the black cloth covering his face was shocked to see Qiao Yuchen appear.
How could it be him?
How could it be him?
The Eighth Prince was thinking about how this person had appeared at his villa outside the city not long ago, and how he had killed everyone around him.
If it weren't for his status as the eighth prince, he believed that this person would have killed him as well.
Thinking about this makes my heart tremble.
After all these years away, does he really no longer belong here?
He came from his fiefdom with his own determination, wanting to fight for himself.
Thinking it over, she met Qiao Yuchen's gaze and said, "I can give you something better."
To live and for a better future, he can put aside past grievances!
"You know quite a lot!" Qiao Yuchen came up to him.
"Whatever you want, I can give you." The Eighth Prince never expected that a lowly illegitimate son of a general's mansion could instill such fear in him, especially the aura emanating from him, coupled with the ghost-like masks around him, which reminded him of a rumor he once knew.
Before he could think further, he saw Qiao Yuchen take a few steps back, and the people who had been gradually dispersing around him all gathered around him.
