It's already December 26th. It hasn't snowed much in the past few days, and there is warmth in the air. I think spring will start soon.

There are still three days until New Year's Eve, and five days before Shang Shaoyan departs for Shuzhou.

While Qiao Xiuyu was still in the palace, Shang Shaoyan and Shang Yunlan personally went to the outskirts of the city, entrusted Mrs. Xie's way, found a caravan, and transported the weapons to the northwest.

Chen Huang was greedy for pleasure and withheld military pay, and the soldiers in the northwest could hardly eat and wear warmly. The two made up another [-] silver and hired escorts to escort them.

"Half of the belongings left by parents have gone." Shang Shaoyan looked at the caravan going away in the dark, and sighed softly, "Brother, can you think of any way to make money?"

The lamp in Shang Yunlan's hand shook: "The nobles of Nanchen like extravagance, let's make glass first, and they will definitely make a lot of money."

Shang Shaoyan couldn't help laughing: "When I read novels in the past, those who traveled through love to make glass, but you have followed the ancient tradition."

Shang Yunlan raised her eyebrows and joked, "That's right... Those people have reached the pinnacle of their lives in the end, and so will we."

The two looked at each other and smiled, then watched the caravan go away.

The slightly cold evening wind blew over the lamp, and the flames danced gently in the lampshade. Shang Shaoyan and Shang Yunlan returned home side by side. There was still a long way ahead of them, but fortunately, they still supported each other.

……

It was rare that there was no snow on the second day, Shang Yunlan got up early, and sat in the study at the end of the day, and it was still dark at this time.

He flipped through the papers on the desk and stared at one of them for a long time.

What is written on it is the information of King Nan'an.

The king of Nan'an, Zhao Ming—actually, it should be the king of Nan'an County. He lost his father since he was a child. This is the heir of a nobleman, she did not dare to be strict with her, so Zhao Ming gradually developed an arrogant temperament.

This arrogance also turned into vicious and stupid as he grew up.

Robbing women's women, embezzling property, killing people and setting fire, there is nothing you can't think of, nothing he can't do.

And this paper clearly stated the grievances between him and the merchant.

When Zhao Ming was 16 years old, Princess Anle begged him for a marriage. She was the orphan of the brother of Zhen Guogong's compatriot, the business lady, and Shang Jieyou.

Shang Jieyou's father also died in battle, and not long after, her mother also passed away. The old Duke naturally took on the responsibility of educating Shang Jieyou, who was only 14 years old at the time.

When Princess Anle came to propose marriage, Shang Jieyou had just reached the age of Ji. Although he had never practiced martial arts, he was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his reputation spread far and wide.

It is conceivable that the old Duke and Mrs. Guo killed him and refused to marry Shang Jieyou.

Princess Anle didn't force her, but Zhao Ming fell in love with Shang Jieyou, crying, making trouble, and hanged himself to marry her.

During that time, Zhao Ming showed all his sincerity, and even restrained his stubborn temper a lot, but the old Duke and his wife are extremely smart people, how could they not see that this was just a show?

But Shang Jieyou didn't see it, not only didn't see it, but also felt that Zhao Ming really liked him, and the Duke and his wife who stopped him from letting her marry, naturally became villains who "can't see themselves well" .

If you don't stay in a female university, if you stay or stay, you will become enemies - this sentence is vividly reflected in Shang Jieyou.

This was the first time that the old Duke and his wife refused to follow Shang Jieyou, so Shang Jieyou eloped with Zhao Ming.

The recruiter ran away as his wife and concubine, the old Duke and his wife were naturally furious, and the two who would never seek personal gain with public affairs mobilized [-] elite soldiers that night to catch up with the two who hadn't left the city gate yet. Afterwards, the matter was suppressed by means of thunder.

Shang Jieyou finally married Zhao Ming, but she hated the old Duke and his wife, and even on the day when she returned home for three days, she never went back to the house to take a look.

This incident was a big one back then, and with the passage of time, everyone had almost forgotten about it, but at this moment, the news of Shang Jieyou's sudden death came.

Before the old Duke and his wife had time to come to ask for an explanation, the barbarians in the northwest had troubles, and the two had to put this matter aside for the time being and went to the northwest, which lasted for three years.

Then, he died in battle a year ago.

The original Shang Yunlan and Shang Shaoyan had always been generous, so naturally they didn't care about the life and death of a cousin who had no feelings at all and was tearing up with her parents, but they never thought that Zhao Ming was so stupid and stupid. Poisonous people, will they really let the merchants go?

In order to marry Shang Jieyou, he pretended to be a gesture. After killing Shang Jieyou, he acted guilty and got rid of the old Duke and his wife. The next step... I am afraid it will be the brother and sister who have already scared the snake.

Shang Yunlan couldn't help but think of the marriage between Yan Xuening and Li Langxuan, her sister once said to herself that Chen Huang wanted to touch his business.

But is it really Huang Chen?

It's not that Shang Yunlan humiliated anyone, but with Chen Huang's brains, he might not be able to think of cutting grass and roots.

What's more, his mind is quite clear, the death of Duke Zhen Guo and his wife will not benefit him or Nan Chen, and he has no guilt when facing Shang Yunlan, which is enough to prove that he is not the mastermind of this matter.

But knowing is certain.

"Zhao Ming...what a Zhao Ming..." Shang Yunlan sneered, "Anan."

As he called out the name "A'nan", a black figure came out from the darkness and knelt down on one knee: "What is your order?"

Shang Yunlan lowered his eyes and looked at him: "You are the secret guard left by your parents, the old department of the merchant. I remember that you were rescued from the dead by your parents, and they can be regarded as your reborn parents."

Anan didn't understand why Shang Yunlan repeated the facts, but he still said respectfully: "Yes."

Shang Yunlan's voice was neither sad nor happy: "Since you have found these things, do you want to avenge them?"

Anan lowered his head and said in a mournful tone, "I think this subordinate, but there are many fine guards in Nan'an Palace, and my subordinates are incompetent and unable to take revenge."

Shang Yunlan laughed softly when he heard the words: "If I say, there is a way? Anan, you also know that I suffer from heart disease and have no power to restrain the chicken. It is very difficult for me and Heyang to take revenge. do it."

Anan is not a dead man, but a secret guard left behind in memory of the old Duke. Although he called Shang Yunlan "Master", Shang Yunlan did not directly order him to do many things.

Most of the time, Shang Yunlan asked him to do things in a consulting tone, which made Anan respect Shang Yunlan even more.

It has to be said that Shang Yunlan is a master at playing "both grace and power".

Seeing Anan's eyes light up, Shang Yunlan smiled, bent down, and gave Anan a few words.
