Instead of going back, Zhao Changqing made it seem as if he wanted to have a long talk with her.
His face was bathed in a soft glow by the dim light.
He Youyou lay on the couch, clutching the blanket with both hands: "Zhao Changqing, why are you turning on the lamp? Aren't you going to sleep?"
Zhao Changqing's eyelashes appeared exceptionally long in the lamplight, each one casting a dense shadow on his pupils.
"Han Zhang".
"Huh?" He Youyou asked, puzzled.
My courtesy name is Hanzhang.
"Hanzhang," He Youyou repeated.
Zhao Changqing finally showed a hint of satisfaction. He leaned against the other end of the couch, looking down at her: "Tell me why you can't sleep, what are you thinking about?"
He Youyou stretched out an arm and propped her head up: "I was thinking about that second prince of the Wuhuan Kingdom."
Zhao Changqing's expression froze: "Why are you thinking about him?"
Is he really that good-looking?
It was so beautiful that she couldn't sleep because she couldn't stop thinking about it.
"I want to know everything about him, like why he came to exchange for food, since people in his country usually prefer to steal... This person is different, what's his story?"
In He Youyou's industry, this information falls under the category of personal background checks, which is one of the most important aspects of the investigation.
To find business opportunities, you must first understand the people involved.
People are the most important factor in business activities.
But how could Zhao Changqing know what she was thinking?
She assumed that all she was thinking about was a man.
He Youyou was still muttering to herself, "I have to go talk to him again tomorrow, but he seems very cold and doesn't like to talk to people. How can I pique his interest? Sigh, I've never dealt with someone of this status before, I have no experience..."
"What do you want to know?" Zhao Changqing asked coldly. "Just ask me. There's no need to find him."
Upon hearing his words, He Youyou propped herself up and fixed her gaze on him: "You know about him? Tell me quickly!"
Seeing her anxious look, Zhao Changqing felt a strange emotion welling up in his eyes.
"Legend has it that the second prince of the Wuhuan Kingdom, Chakchin, was not born to the queen of the Wuhuan Kingdom, but to the king's favorite concubine. From a young age, he was ostracized by the eldest prince's lineage and forced to stay away from the center of power."
"Oh, how pitiful," He Youyou said indifferently.
"After Chakchin came of age, he was enfeoffed as the King of Zhennan, governing this land in the southern part of the Wuhuan Kingdom that borders our country. Although he was enfeoffed as a king, he was actually forced to leave the capital."
"Oh ho, so those who invaded the border, harassed the border residents, and stole grain a few days ago were also Chaka Chin's people?"
Zhao Changqing shook his head: "I don't know."
He Youyou simply sat up, crossed her legs on the couch, and faced Zhao Changqing.
"If he sent people to steal the grain, why did he come to exchange it for grain himself? Isn't that a contradiction?"
"Yes, that's true. But what his intentions are, we don't know yet."
He Youyou felt something was wrong.
There's definitely something wrong here.
An organization, a mature organization, will not implement two completely different policies.
unless……
Someone is causing trouble.
Someone is deliberately trying to trip up Chakchin.
This disrupted bilateral relations, forcing Chaka Chin to become enemies with Ta Kham, leading to conflict!
So, are there people reaping the benefits behind this?
He Youyou stroked her chin: "Hanzhang, tell me, if Zhennan King Chakeqin were to fall out with the Daqian, who would be the biggest beneficiary?"
Upon hearing her words, Zhao Changqing couldn't help but give her a deep look.
If Chakchin and Da Gan were to fight, Chakchin would suffer heavy losses and weaken his strength, and then he would be unable to recover for a considerable period of time.
To put it more conspiratorially, if someone were to seize upon this issue at this time and falsely accuse him of mismanagement and arbitrarily instigating a war, his political position would be in jeopardy.
“There are people plotting against him within the Wuhuan kingdom,” He Youyou said with certainty.
Zhao Changqing remained silent.
If that's the case, then this war cannot be fought.
If they fight, both sides will suffer heavy losses, giving others the opportunity to reap the benefits.
Since the founding of the country by Emperor Taizu, the country's strength has grown day by day, and the Wuhuan people have not dared to invade for many years.
He already found it strange that the frequent border incursions this year were suspicious.
Thinking about it that way, it's really true.
“Zhao Changqing…”
"...Han Zhang".
"Well, Hanzhang, I think that since Chakachin has already made his stance clear and is willing to engage in fair trade, both sides should reach an understanding. We can't be fools and let others lead us by the nose."
"I know what I'm doing."
He Youyou covered her mouth and yawned.
Once the matter was cleared up, she felt relieved and immediately became sleepy.
"Okay, go to sleep, I'm sleepy."
Zhao Changqing glanced at her couch and said, "Why don't you go sleep in the bed?"
He Youyou waved her hand: "No need, no need, I promise I'll sleep like a pig this time and won't make a sound."
As soon as Zhao Changqing left, she immediately returned to her space, and there was no further activity.
The next morning, He Youyou went to the military market.
First, I approached Cheng Tingrui and told him about Chakchin's situation.
Cheng Tingrui was also quite surprised that the second prince of the Wuhuan Kingdom would personally come to do trade.
He Youyou squinted her eyes: "Minzhi, there is great potential in this matter."
Two cunning old foxes from the business world went out for tea again.
This time, He Youyou had no intention of drinking that awful tea again. She took out a small jar of pre-Qingming Longjing tea from her sleeve and handed it to the tea stall owner.
Tea picked before the Qingming Festival is called Mingqian (pre-Qingming). Tea picked before the Rain Water solar term is called Yuqian (pre-Rain). The earlier the tea is picked, the more precious it is.
