Li Xiaotong stared at the strangely dressed woman outside the carriage, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with a smile: "Brother, I have thought of who the woman outside is."
"Oh, sister actually knows." Li Zhen said curiously.
Li Xiaotong nodded and said: "I have never met this girl, but her father and sister are very familiar with her. This girl should be Mu Ziqing, the daughter of Mu Zhongyuan, a big businessman of the Thirteenth Bank of Guangzhou. Mu Zhongyuan is a businessman. Those in the jewelry and porcelain business often travel between England and Guangzhou, and their business is booming, making them extremely wealthy."
"Mu Zhongyuan has a son and a daughter. The son's name is Mu Lianheng, and the daughter's name is Mu Ziqing."
"The girl in front of me must be Mu Ziqing."
"Mu Ziqing grew up in the UK and was the apple of Mu Zhongyuan's eye. Every time Mu Zhongyuan went to Huaibi Tower to listen to music, he would always boast that his daughter was the only one in Guangzhou who studied in the UK. I grew up, but in the whole city of Guangzhou, it is true that Mu Zhongyuan’s daughter is the only one like this, the other businessmen’s daughters are all well-behaved.”
Li Xiaotong's eyes were full of admiration and she said with a smile: "Mu Ziqing is the only girl who can run around barefoot on the street and dress like a foreigner."
Li Zhen looked at Mu Ziqing who was stopped by soldiers outside, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Mu Zhongyuan, a businessman of the Thirteenth Line.
This identity is interesting.
When Qi Ling first came to Guangzhou to take office, he had already aggressively recruited businessmen and officials in Guangzhou. Now, it was time for him to take action. Especially since Mu Zhongyuan was able to travel between Guangzhou and England to do business, he must have certain connections and channels.
"Sir Admiral, someone wants to snatch me to be the wife of Yazhai, please save me."
Mu Ziqing held her high heels in both hands and shouted again.
Her voice was clear and sweet, and her tone was not anxious. It gave people a feeling of joy, making people feel that her so-called 'Mrs. Yazhai' was not true. Mu Ziqing glared at the soldiers blocking the way with angrily. , was so angry that he stamped his feet repeatedly, his feet as white as jade swaying, attracting everyone's attention.
On both sides of the street, the good people stopped and watched. Some of them looked greedily up and down Mu Ziqing, some appreciative, some curious, and most of them looked down upon him with disdain.
In this era, Chinese people regard the three-inch golden lotus as the most beautiful thing.
Even if Mu Ziqing does not bind her feet but still has a firm grip, it still does not suit the taste of most people. In addition, Mu Ziqing looks like a foreigner, which makes the people secretly despise her.
"Admiral, you are the great master of Qingtian, you can't watch this little girl being arrested." Mu Ziqing looked back at the people who were chasing him closer and closer, and then a worried look appeared on her face.
Li Zhen waved his hand and said: "Xiaoye, bring her over."
"yes."
Ye Chengzhong jumped off the carriage, walked to the woman's side, and said with a smile: "Miss, my lord, please come over."
"Thank you."
Mu Ziqing nodded towards Ye Chengzhong, put on her high heels quickly, and strode towards the carriage. However, she stopped about two meters away from the carriage. It was not that she didn't want to move forward, but because there were soldiers protecting the carriage and not allowing her to move forward. Approaching, Li Xiaotong thought for a while and asked first: "You are Mu Zhongyuan's daughter."
"Ah, how do you know me? My sister is so beautiful."
Mu Ziqing had a joyful smile on her face, but her expression soon fell again, and she said: "The old man always asks me to meet people I don't know, and the same goes for my eldest brother, who doesn't give me any freedom. Sister, you are so beautiful, you must He is a kind-hearted person, help me, you must help me."
Li Xiaotong pointed at Li Zhen and said, "He is the Admiral of Guangzhou. It is right to ask him for help."
Mu Ziqing immediately said: "Sir, please."
Li Zhen ordered: "Xiaoye, withdraw the soldiers and ask Xiaomu to come over."
Immediately, Mu Ziqing quickly got on the carriage, relying on Li Xiaotong to get ready in the carriage. Mu Ziqing looked at the beautiful Li Xiaotong next to her and asked curiously: "Sister, do you know my old man?"
Li Xiaotong nodded and said, "We have had several contacts in business dealings."
"Wow, my sister is a businessman, so awesome."
Mu Ziqing looked at Li Zhen with envy on her face, but her eyes were watery, and said: "The Admiral is so young and handsome. I thought officials were all potbellied. I didn't expect you to be so young. It's really surprising. Lord Admiral, I am already an adult, but the old man is always dictating and arranging who and who. It is very annoying. Please help me solve this problem for the little girl. The little girl will definitely repay the favor by wearing a grass ring in her next life."
When Li Zhen heard this, he felt funny in his heart.
This Mu Ziqing is really out of the ordinary, first flattering her, and then asking him to help.
Li Zhen asked with a smile: "I really want me to help you."
That smile made Mu Ziqing shiver and shudder a little. However, when he thought of the old man at home asking him to meet the so-called elder brothers, cousins, cousins, etc., he felt a strong resistance in his heart and nodded. : "Master Li, for the sake of this sister, you must help me."
Li Xiaotong also said: "Brother, just help Xiao Mu."
"Well, well, you must help me." Mu Ziqing nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Li Zhenxiao said: "Actually, it's simple. I just need to recognize you as my sister. With this level of identity, not to mention your father, even your brothers, cousins, etc., will not dare to wrong you, so you can become free."
"Yeah."
Mu Ziqing looked happy, with endless joy on her face.
Li Zhen saw it in his eyes and felt secretly ashamed.
In order to get in touch with Mu Zhongyuan, he took advantage of Mu Ziqing's identity.
However, it was somewhat comforting to have helped Mu Ziqing solve the problem. Mu Ziqing looked back and saw that his eldest brother and a group of people had already chased him. He suddenly became anxious. Mu Ziqing looked anxious and said: "Sir, My eldest brother came after me with his servants, you must help me, if I am caught, I might really become someone else's wife."
Li Zhen waved his hand and said: "It's okay, let's go, follow me down."
As he spoke, Li Zhen got off the carriage.
Mu Ziqing followed behind and looked at Mu Lianheng standing in front, with a proud look on his face.
"Xiao Mu, come back with me."
The person who spoke was Mu Ziqing's eldest brother Mu Lianheng. He was tall, with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people a sense of loyalty and down-to-earth. When he spoke, there was a hint of majesty in Mu Ziqing's face. His momentum suddenly dropped by half, and he muttered: "I won't go back, huh, when I go back, I will have to meet the so-called brother-in-law, cousin, and the like."
Mu Lianheng looked helpless, looked at Li Zhen, bowed and said: "My little sister is rude, please make me laugh, the admiral, and please let me come back so that my father won't worry."
Li Zhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xiao Mu is my sister, and her affairs are my affairs. Xiao Mu doesn't want to be forced into marriage. I hope Brother Mu will be considerate. Xiao Mu, go back. If you have any grievances in the future, go to the Admiral's Mansion. Just look for me." Upon hearing this, Mu Ziqing walked up to Mu Lianheng obediently, but winked at Mu Lianheng, feeling very proud.
"Farewell."
Mu Lianheng had many doubts in his heart, but he did not linger.
With a wave of his hand, Mu Lianheng led the people away.
Li Zhen also returned to the carriage and ordered to return to the Admiral's Mansion. He believed that Mu Lianheng knew about his relationship with Mu Ziqing and would definitely ask Mu Ziqing. When Mu Zhongyuan knew the situation, it would be convenient for both parties to have a bond. too much.
