Chapter 161: Unreasonable Passion
"I haven't seen you for two years, Ah Fu, you have grown taller."
"Afu is useless, he's just growing up." Afu's cheeks turned red, and he felt a little embarrassed: "It's just that the lady said it would take three years to get a master?...Why can I come back early now?"
"Let's talk about these things, you should first lead the horse to the horse shed, feed some grass, and take good care of it." Huang Yueying said lightly, "I will accompany the guests in and sit there, so that my Huang family will lose their etiquette."
Afu nodded quickly and agreed, reaching out to hold the red horse.
Huang Yueying turned around and bowed, "Please, please."
Roqi quickly bowed his hand to answer the gift, and then walked into the mansion together.
As soon as he entered the front yard, Roche was stunned. He saw that the yard was full of peach trees, and the branches were full of peach blossoms, layered like clusters of clouds, and a few butterflies were flying up and down among the flowers, dotted with colorful and gorgeous scenery.
"Good flowers, good mood."
Roche stopped to watch and praised, "Mr. Huang is indeed an elegant man."
"I haven't seen such a sea of flowers like clouds for two years, but now everything is as usual, which makes people think a lot." Huang Yueying sighed a few times, and then changed the subject: "Just just listen to the accent of the young master, I guess it's not a native of Jingzhou?"
Luo Qi nodded and said, "I am a foreign merchant, but now I am just traveling to Jingzhou."
"If this is the case, it's better for the young master to leave as soon as possible." Huang Yueying sighed lightly: "I heard that Yuan Shu is about to provoke a war, and Jingzhou is now in turmoil."
"I have heard of this a long time ago. I heard Boss Chen mention this matter this morning. The shipyard he runs is now in a dilemma of bankruptcy because it was forced to conquer the warships by the navy..." Roqi shook his head and sighed: "Look at how frustrated he is today, how can I bear to leave?"
"There is a sound outside the string and there is a word inside the sentence."
Huang Yueying smiled lightly and said with her hands behind her back: "Young master's trip is indeed not as simple as coming here with fame."
Roche bowed and said, "I'm not hiding it, I have a heartless request."
"My family is a relative with Cai Mao, the commander of the Jingzhou naval army. What the young master wants to ask for is probably a plea, right?" Huang Yueying turned around and said playfully: "Although this relative relationship is unfamiliar, what he asks for is just a trivial matter. Cai Mao will never miss my family's face. The young master's plan is good."
"The girl is really smart and has seen through what she thinks."
Huang Yueying chuckled and said, "If you don't use words to excuse me, the young master is open and honest."
Roqi quickly said a few words of humility, and then sighed: "It's a pity that Mr. Huang is not here, so I'd better come back another day."
"There is no need for this."
Huang Yueying looked calm and said calmly: "I have read all the letters from my father. If you want to imitate his handwriting, you will definitely be fake and real. If the young master has time, please wait a moment and allow me to draft a letter, and I will give it to the young master for emergency treatment."
Roche smiled bitterly and said, "How does this make it?"
"It is urgent to follow the power, so it will save you and me trouble." Huang Yueying stood with her hands behind her back and said lightly: "And my father also knows how good Cai Mao is. If he was present in person, he would not stand by. Now I will handle it on my behalf, and then I will only say one sound."
Roche thought for a moment and bowed, "Then I'll be lucky."
He had some doubts in his heart.
According to observations over the days after traveling through time, although women in this world are not very restricted by ethics and are relatively free to a certain extent, they still emphasize reserve and self-support. They were already a little too enthusiastic when they took the initiative to invite themselves into the mansion. Now they are willing to help in a few words, which makes people feel something is wrong.
Why did the other party help him so much?
Although he had some guesses about Huang Yueying's motives, his goal had been achieved after all, so Roqi naturally would not ask questions to cause trouble for himself. He hid his questions in his heart and chose to keep silent.
"It's just a slight effort, and the young master doesn't need to be polite."
Huang Yueying was very efficient. A letter was quickly handed over to Luo Qi. After he thanked him, he sat for a while and stood up to bow his farewell. Huang Yueying did not force her to stay and sent them to the mansion and returned.
"Hey, you said..." Before he took two steps, Dan'er couldn't help but say, "Why is Huang Yueying always covered in a veil?"
Roche smiled and said, "You can only ask yourself about this."
Dan'er glanced at him and deliberately speculated: "I'm afraid there is no flaw on her face, so she covered her veil to cover up her ugly things?"
"I remember a common saying."
Roche deliberately frowned, as if thinking carefully: "What do you mean by dogs? What do you care about?"
Dan'er snorted coldly and sneered, "Can you not care if she is beautiful or ugly?"
"No matter what she looks like, it has nothing to do with us." Roqi Yangyang raised the letter in his hand and smiled: "Our goal has been achieved. Will we have any interaction with her in the future?"
Dan'er stared into his eyes and said suspiciously: "Do you really think so?"
"Of course!" Luo Qi stretched and said, "Don't forget that we came to the Eastern Han Dynasty. The purpose is to go on a friendly mission and flatter the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty to ensure that the two countries have any communication. As for other details, they are not planned."
Dan'er suddenly felt much better and said with a gentle breath: "So that's it."
Roqi didn't hear her clearly, but just said to himself: "After that, how is Fan Li's progress?"
"All joints have been opened, and the post has been sent to Liu Biao long ago. If Your Highness is willing to give him face, you can visit him tomorrow. However, if it is carried out according to the original plan, we should go to Beijing to see the emperor after two days of lingering. But now Yuan Shu is about to invade Jingzhou, so it is better to set off as soon as possible." Dan'er said the serious matter, but he was not vague at all: "And Liu Biao must have the same meaning."
"It has been three years since the last time I went to the Eastern Han Dynasty." Luo Qi sighed and said with a smile: "It turns out that time is like a passing time!"
Roche shook his head and said, "It may not be really safe to leave now. It will only be more troublesome to encounter riots on the road, not to mention that I want to see how this war will end."
Dan'er raised her eyebrows and said, "Your Highness plans to continue staying in Jingzhou?"
"Um."
"Sure enough, I knew you would do this by your highness!" Dan'er looked as expected, and then changed his subject: "But the Eastern Han Dynasty seemed to have exhausted its energy. The emperor was clearly still sitting on the dragon throne, but the princes below dared to conquer privately. This Eastern country could not hold on for long..."
"In fact, this is beneficial to us." Roqi chuckled: "The more confused the political situation, the easier it is to buy it. As long as we bribe one or two favorite ministers, we will definitely return with a full load."
"That's right!"
Luo Qi handed the letter in his hand to Dan'er and ordered lightly: "Since there is a stepping stone, the rest is to go with the flow. Find a good and wise associate and ask him to find Cai Mao to get things done at the shipyard."
Dan'er took the letter and nodded, "No problem."
"Let's go out tomorrow while Xiangyang has not closed down yet."
"Where is your Highness who wants to go?"
Roqi looked at the sky above his head, and then said two words lightly: "Xianshan."
Xianshan.
A not-so-exotic place, located two miles southwest of Xiangyang.
