Chapter 438: Under One Person

 Shen Wansan stared at the young man for a while, then suddenly smiled and cupped his hands towards the young man from a distance.

The young man in the colorful shirt bowed respectfully and returned the gift.

When everyone saw this, they realized that the man knew Shen Wansan. Someone ran to Shen Wansan and asked about the man's origins.

Zhang Yangquan secretly wondered why no one else recognized this person but Shen Wansan?

A sudden flash occurred in his mind, and he said in a deep voice: "Little sister, isn't that person from Japan?"

Qin Lingsi smiled and said: "You guessed it! Yes, I also met him when I was changing ships in Tongzhou. That boy's name is Ashikaga Yoshihan, and he is the son of the shogunate Ashikaga Takauji!"

Zhang Yangquan said solemnly: "Why do Japanese people buy recruitment halls?"

Qin Lingsi tilted her head and said, "Then I don't know."

Zhang Yangquan said: "You bid immediately and buy it back. Such an important house cannot be bought by Japanese people."

Qin Lingsi said in surprise: "Brother-in-law, you must be too careful. It's just a house. If I make a sound, I will definitely be recognized!"

Zhang Yangquan said nothing and looked solemn.

Seeing this expression on his face, Qin Lingsi knew that she had to be obedient and was about to make a loud bid when a voice spoke first.

"I offer fifty thousand one hundred taels!"

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw that the person making the quotation was Fu Youde's father-in-law, Wei Yuan.

Even Wei Shi was surprised. Although the Wei family had a lot of savings, more than 50,000 taels of silver already exceeded half of the family property. She didn't understand why her father spent so much money to buy a house.

Wei Yuan is also suffering at this moment.

When Fu Youde first came to the Wei Mansion, he was extremely mean to his cheap son-in-law and often insulted him.

After arriving in Jiangdu Mansion, although he tried to please him in every possible way, Fu Youde still treated him coldly and indifferently.

Now Fu Youde is about to become the founding hero of the new dynasty. If this old grudge is not resolved, it will be difficult for him to enjoy his old age in peace in the future.

Then he gritted his teeth and planned to buy this mansion to please his son-in-law.

Ashikaga Yoshihan glanced at Wei Yuan and said lightly: "Sixty thousand taels!"

Wei Yuan trembled all over, and when he was hesitating whether to bid again, Fu Youde said: "Father-in-law, there is no need to fight anymore, spend your money on more useful places."

When Wei Yuan saw his son-in-law speaking, he was overjoyed and said: "Okay, okay, listen to your virtuous son-in-law!"

Without Wei Yuan to fight, it seems that the mansion can only fall into the hands of Ashikaga Yoshiki.

The Yahang officials looked at each other and were about to announce the end of the auction when a clear voice sounded.

"I'll pay 70,000 taels!"

Everyone was shocked again. This auction had twists and turns. It was really unexpected. The base price of 5,000 taels actually rose to 70,000 taels.

Batu swallowed and turned to look at the source of the sound.

After seeing the person who made the bid, he suddenly turned from shock to anger. It turned out that the person bidding was the woman who had just beaten him.

He could no longer hold in his breath and said loudly: "I will pay 80,000 taels!"

Mongolian woman Anawen said anxiously: "Brother, you are crazy, how can we have so much money?"

Batu said: "At worst, I can borrow it from my eldest sister. My brother-in-law is the prime minister. How can the family's wealth be comparable to that of these businessmen!"

Qin Lingsi crossed her arms and said calmly: "Ninety thousand!"

Batu said angrily: "One hundred thousand!"

When everyone saw that these two young men and women had raised the price to one hundred thousand, they were all a little unbelievable for a moment.

Yahang officials also whispered, suspecting that these two people were here to cause trouble.

Qin Lian stared at Qin Lingsi and suddenly said: "Brother Cai, do you think the voice of the masked woman sounds familiar?"

Cai Heng had already heard it and said with a smile: "Of course you are familiar with it. If I guess correctly, that woman should be the owner Qin."

Qin Lian's eyes lit up and he said: "She and her first cousin will live in the palace in the future, why did she buy this house? Could it be for our family to live in?"

Cai Hengdao: "It's not impossible."

When Ashikaga Yoshihan saw that the price had risen to one hundred thousand, his heart sank and he couldn't help but clench his hands.

A woman next to him said: "Young Master, we only brought ten thousand taels of gold in total. If we use all of it, we won't be able to offer it as an offering to celebrate King Chu's accession to the throne!"

Ashikaga Yoshiki took a deep breath and said: "Even if you use it, you may not be able to buy it. Forget it, I don't want this house anymore."

The woman asked: "What should I do with my lord's explanation?"

Ashikaga Yoshiken remained silent.

The main purpose of him being sent here by his father this time was to make Jiangdu Jun recognize their orthodox status in the Northern Dynasty, so that the two families could do business.

In his opinion, if you want others to respect you, you must show corresponding strength.

This auction is an opportunity for the Northern Dynasty to show its strong financial resources.

As long as the King of Chu recognizes the Northern Dynasty and develops maritime trade in the future, the money can be earned back quickly.

It's a pity that he didn't expect that among the ordinary Han people, there would be some who had more financial resources than the Northern Dynasties.

Ashikaga Yoshiki stared closely at Qin Lingsi, and saw the masked woman shouting lightly again: "One hundred and ten thousand."

It’s as easy as shouting eleven liang.

Batu only thought that Qin Lingsi was deliberately against him, and old and new hatreds came together. Unable to bear it any longer, Batu strode up to Qin Lingsi and pointed at her.

"You bitch, I have to teach you a lesson today!"

Qin Lingsi sneered and said, "Come on, you can teach me a lesson like you just did!" She raised her head slightly and backed away.

Batu was startled, took a step back, and concentrated on guarding.

When everyone saw that both parties in the auction changed from verbal to physical, they became more interested and sat nearby to watch the excitement.

The Yahang official wanted to stop him, but a man suddenly walked up to the stage, flashed a sign at him, and whispered: "Don't worry about this matter."

The official was shocked when he saw "Jinwu Guard" written on the sign. He quickly agreed and watched the excitement.

Although Batu has a bad temper, he was beaten violently by Qin Lingsi just now. He knows that he can't beat her, so he doesn't dare to attack her again.

"You bitch, do you know who my brother-in-law is?" He began to move his supporters.

Qin Ling thought and smiled, put her hands on her hips and said, "Do you know who my brother-in-law is?"

Batu sneered and said: "Who is your brother-in-law? My brother-in-law is the left prime minister of Jiangdu Prefecture. If you offend me, you will never live in peace in Jiangdu in the future!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the people watching changed their colors.

Even Zhang Yangquan was surprised. After thinking for a while, he remembered that Guo Niansheng had indeed married a Mongolian woman.

Judging from this, Batu is the younger brother of the Mongolian woman, no wonder he is so arrogant.

Qin Lingsi said nothing, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

When Batu saw Guo Niansheng moving out, the woman shut up and just thought she was shocked.

"Haha, you know you're scared, right? But it's already too late. Kowtow to the young master ten times and be my slave girl for another month, and I will spare you!"

When Qin Lian heard that he was so rude, he strode out of the queue and shouted: "Wantless, do you know who she is?"

Batu glanced at him and said coldly: "Oh? Who is she?"

Cai Heng followed and walked out and said slowly: "This Mongolian brother, didn't you just say that your brother-in-law is under one person in Jiangdu Prefecture?"

"Not bad!" Batu said proudly.

Cai Hengdao: "The brother-in-law of the girl in front of you is in the sentence you just said."

Batu was stunned for a moment and said: "In the words..."

After turning his head for a while, his face suddenly turned pale. He pointed at Qin Lingsi and said in a loud voice: "You, your brother-in-law is..."

Qin Lingsi ignored him, turned around and took a look and found that Zhang Yangquan was gone.

The sun has passed high in the sky, and in early spring, the sun is actually quite bright.

Guo Niansheng was preparing for the enthronement ceremony near the Chengtian Hall of the Imperial Palace, and it was so hot that he sweated on his forehead.

A confidant official suddenly rushed from the royal road and shouted from a distance: "Eun Xiang, it's not good!"

Guo Niansheng turned his head and asked: "What's wrong?"

The official came closer and whispered something.

Guo Niansheng's face instantly lost color and he lost his voice: "What?" His feet went weak and he sat down on the ground.

The official hurriedly helped him up and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end. Please go to the palace as soon as possible and apologize to the king!"

Guo Niansheng slapped his thigh and cursed: "If I had known, I wouldn't have taken in that little beast!"

Holding up the hem of his trousers, he ran towards Donghua Gate.

After a while, I left the palace from Chaoyang Gate and quickly arrived at the palace in a carriage.

As soon as I arrived at the study, I saw Chen Ji walking around outside the study, looking anxious.

After seeing him arriving, Chen Ji walked over quickly and said urgently: "Lao Guo, why are you so confused this time that you allow your Mongolian relatives to do whatever you want and dare to be rude to the king!"

Guo Niansheng smiled bitterly and said: "I never knew that little beast would cause such a disaster."

Yang Sanqiang said expressionlessly: "Xiang Guo, your Majesty has an order. When you arrive, go in directly."

Guo Niansheng responded and quickly entered the study.

People in the study were already kneeling on the ground. In addition to Batu and Anawen, Polo Buhua and Yahansha were also kneeling on the ground.

Qin Lingsi leaned against the window, and after meeting his eyes, she winked repeatedly, signaling him to be careful about what he said.

With a "pop" sound, Guo Niansheng knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, Guo Niansheng, pays homage to your Majesty. I am not strict with my family members. Please punish me!"

Zhang Yangquan ignored Guo Niansheng and asked Batu: "Did you just say that you came from Dadu?"

"Not bad."

Batu held his head high, his face still seemed to be unruly, but judging from his slightly trembling fingers, he was full of uneasiness.

Zhang Yangquan said lightly: "In that case, if you don't stay well in Dadu, why did you come to Jiangdu Mansion?"

Batu snorted and said: "The situation in Dadu is not good. Father asked us to come to Jiangdu Mansion to join my eldest sister!"

Polo Buhua rushed to explain.

"Reporting to your Majesty, in most of the temples, the fight between the emperor and the prince's party became more and more fierce. The prince's party killed Prime Minister Taiping, and the government was controlled by Xie Sijian and Pu Buhua."

Zhang Yangquan was slightly startled and said: "Is Taiping dead?"

Polo Buhua whispered: "Yes, now that Tuohuan has lost power, the prince and the queen are trying to cut off his wings in preparation for forcing him to become a Zen king!"

Zhang Yangquan glanced at Batu and said, "Is your father a loyalist?"

Batu said loudly: "My father is a confidant of Your Majesty. It was only because the prince's party framed another of His Majesty's confidants that he went to Datong to join General Polo. My father was worried that it would be his turn next, so he sold the house.

Please let us come to Jiangdu Mansion to seek refuge with eldest sister."

Zhang Yangquan finally turned his attention to Guo Niansheng.

"Prime Minister Zuo, the eldest sister he talks about is your Mongolian wife?"

Guo Niansheng whispered: "Yes."

Zhang Yangquan said solemnly: "None of us object to your marrying a Mongolian wife. But why do you allow her relatives to do mischief in Jiangdu Prefecture?"

"Now everyone is united sincerely with the goal of driving away the Mongols. Doesn't your behavior discourage everyone and make the soldiers feel cold?"

Guo Niansheng cried and said: "I am guilty, please punish me severely!"

Zhang Yangquan sighed and said: "Fortunately, he didn't cause too much trouble. This time he will only record a big mistake, and he won't do it next time!"

Guo Niansheng burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."

At this moment, there was a burst of noise outside.

"Let me see the king, I want to see the king!"

Zhang Yangquan frowned and said: "Who is making noise outside?"

Yang Sanqiang walked in, cupped his hands and said: "Report to the king, Mrs. Guo wants to see you."

Zhang Yangquan's face darkened and he said, "Let her come in!"
