Ye Zhichen turned his head and looked at Leng Qiu, who was standing beside him without saying a word and with a depressed face, and could guess a little bit of his thoughts.
But compared with winning Su Wan's heart, Leng Qiu seems less "important"...
After all, the two of them have grown up together, and after so many years of getting along, they have become like brothers. Although the capital is at the feet of the emperor, it is also a place with extremely complicated power.
It happened that the Ye family had no foundation in the capital. He had gone to various shops earlier to ask the shopkeepers to manage the current ones so that they would not rapidly expand the shops and attract the attention of all parties.
So at this juncture, Ye Zhichen was relieved to leave all the shops in the capital to Leng Qiu.
"Go ahead, while it's still early, inform the shopkeepers of each shop as early as possible. This way, you will be more relaxed tomorrow."
After Ye Zhichen finished speaking, he took off a jade pendant from his waist and placed it on the table. This was something that could represent his identity, just like the soldiers guarding the border who only recognized the Tiger Talisman.
Leng Qiu sighed silently in his heart, looked at the jade pendant on the table, then looked at his young master, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Does the young master really want to hand over those shops to his subordinates to take care of them first?"
Ye Zhichen nodded seriously and said: "When did I tell you that I was joking? I asked you to take care of it, so you take care of it first. When I get together with Wanwan, I will never forget what you said today."
Favor——”
Leng Qiu twitched the corner of his mouth, knowing that there was no room for change in the matter. He stepped forward to accept the jade pendant, turned around and went out.
…
Su Wan did not let anyone block the news about Ye Zhichen moving into the Su Mansion. Therefore, Wu Li and the group of people who were guarding outside soon found out about it.
Wu Li was hiding in the dark, with his arms folded, staring at the door of Su Mansion with a depressed look on his face.
He did not dare to go back to Prince Xian's Mansion immediately and report the matter to Zhan Wenxuan. After all, his duty had already changed from monitoring Su Wan to protecting the third mother.
Besides, Su Wan ignored Wenxuan at all, but his master was not as free and easy as usual after what happened in the imperial study room.
In addition, Su Yun has sent people to Prince Xian's Mansion every day in the past few days, pretending to be delivering food to Zhan Wenxuan, which has been seen by all the people in the capital. Some of them are talkative and don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.
He also said behind his back that Zhan Wenxuan was ruthless, and after driving his concubine back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he didn't want her anymore...
Wu Li thought about it again and again, but decided to suppress the matter and not report it to his master, which would have made him upset again.
However, it only took him one night to make this decision. The next morning, he received a message from Bai Qian who ordered someone to bring him a message. He said that two secret guard brothers had been arranged, and he went to Jiangnan to investigate and asked him to rearrange other arrangements.
The mission of the secret guard brothers is to ensure that those in the Su Mansion are not put in danger.
When Wu Li heard the news, he couldn't help but frown. He couldn't figure out what else could be worth his master's trouble.
With this thought, it was noon. Wu Li felt the hunger in his stomach, and finally decided to go back to Prince Xian's Mansion to find Bai Yu to inquire about the situation.
Bai Qian waited on Zhan Zhan Wenxuan for dinner, then went to the kitchen, planning to deal with him casually and then go back. But just as he walked in, he saw Wu Li was there.
"Why do you have time to come back today? Why don't you go to the master and report back on the recent situation in the Su Mansion?"
There are several long tables in the kitchen, and it's time to eat now. Someone has already prepared Bai Qian's lunch and placed it in the snack box next to it.
Bai Qian held the food box, patted Wu Li on the shoulder twice, and said, "I'll wait for you over there."
Wu Li knew what Bai Kuan meant, so he went to prepare dinner by himself, took a pair of chopsticks, and went to find Bai Kuan to eat.
The two of them sat in a corner and lowered their voices when they spoke so that no one would hear them.
