Chapter 225

"If the three southern prefectures can pose a threat to Xinglong, it should be only Zhao Qianyi, the king of Southern Xinjiang!"

"The straw bag king?"

"My subordinates think that's the misunderstanding of people all over the world. Because the area is remote, the chaotang has little control over the three prefectures, while Zhao Qianyi, king of Southern Xinjiang, can stay in the palace honestly and in good order, and never leave home for 15 years. This forbearance is beyond the reach of ordinary people! If he is a fool, it's all right, but he can take Nansan quietly in these years Many industries in the state are under their own names, but they don't touch the interests of Xinglong society. How can a straw bag do it! "

"The leader of the gold gang was not wary of him?"

"The Xinglong society has echoed all over the South ten prefectures, so why be wary? Besides, he is the Lord after all! No matter how domineering Xinglong will be, he will not be stupid enough to compete for interests with the royal family! Not to mention..."

"Not to mention what?"

"The guild leader once said that the Royal affairs are changing. Zhao Qianyi is so patient that he may have some investment value! So he has given Zhao Qianyi many benefits over the years. Now it seems that he is really raising tigers for trouble!"

Many businessmen can achieve success not only because of their fierce and accurate vision, but also because of their willingness to invest and diversify their investment! As the saying goes, who knows which cloud will have rain?

"As far as I know, your majesty has general feelings for this brother and is extremely suppressed! Especially after the Dabei River King incident, he has taken preventive measures! How can he develop under such suppression?"

"Hou ye, where are the three southern states? When the will arrives there, it has little effect! Say a bad word, in southern Xinjiang, the words of Xinglong society are more effective than the will! Which official will seriously warn him?"

The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. It is not a superficial expression, but an iron fact!

But with his vision and understanding, to see the world, the strength of the king of Southern Xinjiang is not eye-catching. At most, the local overlord in a corner can't attract his eyes! Moreover, judging from the family composition of emperor Zhao Qianyuan, Zhao Qianyi had no chance to turn over. I'm afraid he was doomed to die in southern Xinjiang in his life!

……

Hezhou lie has a subtle catalytic effect on the "vitality" in Zhang Zhou's body, and the joy of vitality has accelerated his healing speed, which makes Zhang Zhou have to be more convinced of Yan Xinxin's "eyesight" and almost obey Yan Xinxin's arrangement!

Hezhou lie, one bowl a day, no more, no less. Zhang Zhou is sitting in the tent. He is carrying a bowl of wine to taste manpin. Not a bowl is dry, but it is also delicious!

At this time, Yan Xinxin rushed in with a child in her arms.

In Zhang Zhou's suspicious face, Yan frowned and said anxiously, "the child is ill!"

"Oh, whose child is this?"

"Who else could it be? It was brought by the old couple!"

"Oh, oh!" Zhang Zhou didn't know that the saved old couple was still with a child!

"Let Mr. Mao show him!"

"Mr. Mao has returned to Qinzhou City!"

"You can ask my senior brother for help. He also knows some medical theory!"

"Elder martial brother Zhang went with Mr. Mao!"

"It's a bit troublesome. There are no other doctors on the dock now! Why don't you send a boat to Suzhou?"

Yan Xinxin obviously didn't coax the child. She was in a hurry!

"I'm afraid it's too late!"

Zhang Zhou stretched out his hands.

"Come here and let me see!"

Yan Xinxin hurriedly put the child in his arms! Will you, three samples, Zhang Zhou's holding posture is obviously more than Yan Xinxin's standard!

The child should be only one year old. His face is pale and his lips are a little purple. He seems to have lost consciousness!

At this time, there was a cry outside the account, but eleven Lang stopped and dared not come in.

"It's the child's grandparents!"

"Eleven Lang, let the old man in!"

The old couple walked in quickly. Before waiting to speak, Zhang Zhou took the lead in asking, "is there a precedent for this child's disease?"

"The child suffered from heart disease when he was a child. He went to many famous doctors and later said that he had been cured. He hadn't committed it again for a long time. This time, somehow..." the old woman couldn't help sobbing again.

Zhang Zhou guessed that nine times out of ten it was congenital heart disease. He lamented in his heart and watched a little life die. It was definitely not a taste in his heart! But he has nothing to do with such a thing!

Listen to Yan Xinxin suddenly say.

"You all go out first!"

The old couple didn't want to go, but they didn't dare to refute, so they had to leave!

"I'm afraid the child..."

Zhang Zhou didn't know what Yan Xin wanted to do, but reluctantly shook her head and expressed his views.

Yan Xinxin stared at Zhang Zhou and asked very seriously, "now there is a way to save the child. Would you like to?"

Zhang Zhou didn't know why, but he nodded.

"Zhang Zhou, can you try it with your blood?"

"What?"

"It's too late to explain. I think your blood may be useful. Can you try it for this child?"

Yan Xinxin's hand directly caught Zhang Zhou's arm, very hard, as if praying.

Many people can see that Zhang Zhou's "skill" is different, but there are not many strange people and scholars in the world, which are unusual but normal! Yan Xinxin is the only one who can really "see through" Zhang Zhou. Her clarity of Zhang Zhou is far more than her perception of others, and even more than Zhang Zhou's own understanding of herself!

Zhang Zhou looked at Yan Xinxin and saw that her eyes were firm and complex, implying the meaning of asking and praying!

In this era, people have different lives. Let a marquis save an unidentified child with his own blood for no reason. This idea will be directly regarded as childish!

But Zhang Zhou has never had this concept of hierarchy. He nodded decisively. Voluntary blood donation is the social obligation of our young people. How can he refuse! But he asked timidly.

"Shouldn't it take a lot?"

……

Only half a bowl of blood was used. After the child took it, he recovered his blood color and vitality immediately! Zhang Zhou himself felt incredible, but he was also worried. Is this the fact that he wanted to sit as a real "Tang Monk"?

Yan Xinxin watched the child return to normal, finally settled down and smiled with the child in her arms.

"Miss Yan, I don't want to know why there is this magic. I just hope..."

Yan Xin looked at the child and nodded.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"

"It's anyone!"

"Well, including my closest people, please rest assured!" Yan Xinxin's expression turned cold.

Zhang Zhou said in his heart: you seem to have told your brother a lot!

……

Seeing that her grandson was saved, the old woman burst into tears of gratitude. Although she didn't know what method to use, she couldn't escape Zhang Zhou's help after all.

"Old man, saving people's lives is a good deed. You should be grateful, just thank Miss Yan!"

"Lord Hou and miss Yan are good people. I should thank you very much!" the old man said respectfully.

"You're welcome, sir! Although we met by chance, we should have this fate. You don't have to worry too much about it!"

"Alas, no matter how stupid I am, I dare not forget the great kindness of the Marquis!"

Yan Xinxin and the old woman leave with their children. The old man is left by Zhang Zhou and has a very common chat about family affairs.

"Old man, where are you from?"

"Oh, we are from Nanping Prefecture!"

"Nanping Prefecture? Can you ask the father-in-law's taboo?"

The old man showed a trace of hesitation, fleeting.

"My surname is Wuyang, and my surname is Xiaomen!"

Nanping Prefecture is basically a compound surname, and Wuyang is indeed one of the most outstanding small surnames!

But the smile on Zhang Zhou's face faded slightly.

"Old man, you keep saying thank you for saving my life, but you hide something. It seems unreasonable?"

"Ah! Why did the Marquis say that?"

"When I was saving your grandson just now, I saw a jade plaque hanging around the child's neck with the word 'Duanmu' clearly written on it, but the father-in-law said his surname was Wuyang. Hehe, did you pick up the child?"

The old man was a little embarrassed.

"Since the old man knows my identity and deliberately conceals it, he should not be an ordinary person! I must be afraid that I know your true identity and give you to Sima family?"

When the old man heard the speech, his face changed greatly and he fell down on his knees.

"Lord Hou, I didn't mean to cheat. Please let us go. Duanmu family will remember your kindness!"

Liu Qingshan told him about Nanping Prefecture.

In Nanping Prefecture, Sima family has always been the dominant family, and Duanmu family is only a second-class family! Originally, they were kind to each other, but when Sima family soldiers came out of Dayan pass, there were some changes. Several families seemed unwilling to their current status. They had the sign of jointly dealing with Sima family with their existing territory. Duanmu family was the most active, determined and confident, and was promoted to a leading position!

After Sima Jingyan returned, these families not only did not converge, but became more publicized. Their contradictions were officially made public, and the war of words was more intense and difficult to reconcile! Although there is no showdown between the sword and the gun, it is said that local conflicts have occurred from time to time. In terms of posture, Duanmu family alliance was once more aggressive!

Kyushu business is nominally the largest trading partner of Sima family. Although it has not made an obvious move to stand in line, it has more or less a more closely bound label with Sima family! The reason why the old man concealed his identity from him should be from this situation!

"Old man, get up and talk first! Don't worry. I'm not interested in helping Sima family. What I care about is how to earn more money in Nanping Prefecture!"

Although the old man was not as nervous as he was just now, he was still a little uneasy!

"To tell you the truth, my father's surname is Wuyang. The child is my grandson. After all, the Sima family is powerful. No one can tell what will happen in the future. Just in case, my wife and I left Nanping state first with our children and wanted to stay in Liangzhou to ensure integrity!"

Seeing that Zhang Zhou was still suspicious, the old man took out his waist token and handed it to Zhang Zhou to prove that he was indeed a Wuyang man.

"Who is the child's father? I hope the old man can tell the truth!"

The old man hesitated and said, "my son-in-law is the head of Duanmu family. Duanmu Shaoyi!"

"As far as I know, Duanmu and Sima's family have no big contradiction. They used to get along well. Why do they suddenly make such a risky gamble?"

"The Marquis doesn't know that the surface is peaceful, which doesn't mean that there is no resentment behind it. The Sima family has dominated Nanping Prefecture for so many years, and which family hasn't been plundered and humiliated by it. It's just that there is a great difference in strength and dare to be angry but dare not speak!"

"Then why don't you continue to bear it? Do you really think that the Sima family can be defeated by the combination of several families?"

"Because..."

"Old man, I hope you can be honest with me. If you really have the possibility of winning, I don't want to miss an investment opportunity!"

In Nanping Prefecture, the old man is also a well-informed figure. He naturally knows a lot about Kyushu Commerce: Kyushu commerce can swallow the Huyan family as a subsidiary; It undertakes nearly 80% of the foreign commercial transportation of Nanping Prefecture; Control nearly half of the commerce and trade in Nanping Prefecture; It is also the only merchant who can trade with Xirong. Who dares to underestimate its strength? But all along, the main trade authority of Kyushu business is dominated by Sima family. If others want to intervene, there is no door!

The old man naturally knows what effect the situation will be if he can help his son-in-law to Kyushu business.

"Hou Ye's words are serious?" the old man was a little excited.

"Of course, but don't say anything irrelevant to deceive me, it will only destroy yourself!"

"I understand! Lord, please trust me to ensure that everything is true and there will be no deception!"

The old man sorted his thoughts slightly and continued: "When the Sima family set out for Dayan pass, someone found my son-in-law and promised to help him overthrow the Sima family and replace him! My son-in-law didn't believe it at first and was afraid that it was the temptation of the Sima family! As a result, the other party took out one million taels of silver on the spot and promised to pay 200000 taels every three months!"

"That's all?"

If Duanmu Shaoyi only had these silver, he would dare to take action, and Zhang Zhou would not support him.

"Of course not. There are 20000 sets of superior armor and ordnance, and... And a commitment to let the Duanmu family control Nanping state after success!"

"Oh!"

Zhang Zhou has vaguely guessed who is doing this, that is, the current emperor Zhao Qianyuan! He is the only one who can give 20000 sets of armor, ordnance and such a commitment at one time.

I can't imagine what I said at the beginning: there is not only one Sima family in the northwest! The emperor paid attention!

"Doesn't Sima family have any detection and countermeasures?"

"How could it not be? Originally, it was enough to unite these families to confront Sima family, but Sima Jingyan paid a lot of money to buy two people who are both right and left. Only then did my son-in-law become passive in the situation and have to make the worst plan to let us leave secretly with our children!"
