    Longshouyuan, Prince Wu¡¯s Mansion.

    In late autumn, the vast Longshou Plain was bare with not a single tree in sight.

    There is only one Prince Wu's Mansion, standing there alone.

    Where the autumn wind is bleak, there is not even a fallen leaf

    There are no servants, maids, or eunuchs in the backyard of the palace.

    All trivial matters are handled by Zheng Gufeng, King Wu¡¯s personal guard.

    It has been like this for more than ten years.

    But today is different, there are two more people in the palace.

    Ye Qing came out of the kitchen, holding a food plate in his hand. On the plate was a dragon porcelain bowl with an inner pattern, which contained a bowl of longevity noodles.

    Behind him was the girl Qingzhu, also holding a food plate with several plates of side dishes that looked quite delicious.

    After the two entered the back house, they saw Gu Feng outside. Ye Qing laughed and said, "Uncle Gu wants to eat, just help yourself."

    Gu Feng swallowed his saliva and was about to go out, but heard Ye Qing say sternly: "To be on the safe side, Uncle Gu should give a few compliments first."

    Hearing this, Gu Feng laughed heartily and praised repeatedly: "It's delicious! The longevity noodles cooked by Qing Yatou are more fragrant than the best delicacies in the world just by the smell!"

    Qingzhu was giggling happily in the back, and Ye Qing also laughed and walked inside.

    This is the palace of Prince Wu, and it is also a forbidden place.

    "Uncle Nine!"

    Pushing the door open and walking around a plain screen, you saw a thin man sitting in a wheelchair, looking deeply at the autumn colors outside the window.

    Ye Qing greeted with a smile on his face and said with a sweet smile: "Uncle Jiu, come and try my craft! I have been learning this bowl of longevity noodles for a long time"

    King Wu Liu Cheng withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ye Qing. His quiet eyes became warmer and more loving, and he said, "It's hard for you to have such filial piety."

    Ye Qing smiled brightly, and placed the noodles and side dishes with Qingzhu. After Qingzhu went out, King Wu was not polite. After slowly using up the longevity noodles, his pale face became more red.

    When Qingzhu came in and put away the mess, King Wu looked at Ye Qing and said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid that Yuan Shou will annoy you and sue him?"

    Yuan Shou is a nickname, which was decided upon by an agreement between King Wu and his beloved wife Zhao Xian.

    King Wu reminded: "This boy is good at everything, but he is not broad-minded."

    Ye Qing chuckled and said: "Uncle Jiu, what are you talking about" and explained: "If not, it might be a flaw in the eyes of others. Furthermore, he is too sharp. Although he has done some covering up, it is not enough.  So I am jealous again and cover up for him."

    Hearing this, King Wu understood what he was thinking, and a little moved in his eyes, he said: "If this brat doesn't treat you well in the future, I will not rely on him."

    Ye Qing lowered his eyes, smiled shyly, and raised his eyes to persuade: "Uncle Ninth, it's a good time to recuperate, the days are still long."

    King Wu chuckled and said: "It won't last long Yuan Shou defeated the enemy with extraordinary troops, and it has achieved miraculous results. With the help of Jin Yiwei, he is enough to gain a foothold in the south of the Yangtze River. With his courage and courage, and his unconstrained strategies, those families in the south of the Yangtze River seem to be deeply rooted.  In fact, the old age is already deep, and there is no courage to raise the flag for rebellion, so it is impossible to withstand the general trend.

    With things going on in Jiangnan, looking back, it depends on who the third brother wants to attack first.

    "Ning Zechen is still a close relative"

    Hearing this, Ye Qing looked at the King of Wu who was as light as a clairvoyant, with admiration in his eyes, and said: "Uncle Ninth's strategic vision can see the general trend of the world. This Yuan Shou passed down from Uncle Ninth. I didn't expect that he could use one move to build a plank road to defeat Chen Cang secretly.  His strategy deceived the world."

    King Wu shook his head and said with a smile: "You probably expected this move of his, but he dared to sweep from south to north, which was beyond your expectation. In the end, even Gu believed in the cover of October 15th, thinking that  He will not attack Liu Zhao until October 15th, hehehe"

    Although he shook his head, the pride in King Wu's smile was not concealed at all.

    Ye Qing teased: "Uncle Ninth, do you think the more you look at me, the more you look like yourself? These strategies were all used by Uncle Ninth during the war!"

    When King Wu heard this, his eyes suddenly became deep and he looked out the window. After a long time, he chuckled and said, "Yes, I am lucky to have a son to take over."

    Ye Qing persuaded softly again: "Uncle Ninth, the days are still long!"

    King Wu shook his head, looked at Ye Qing and said, "You said this morning that you wanted to go south for a stroll?"

    Ye Qing nodded and said, "You have to do everything in your acting."

    King Wu said with a smile: "It's not all just a show, is it?"

    Ye Qing's pretty face turned slightly red and she said in disbelief: "Uncle Nine!"Cong nodded and said, "Yes, I can't do anything to you."

    Jia Hui glanced at Jia Cong and suddenly asked: "Third brother, have you visited Zhen's house?"

    Jia Cong shook his head and said: "I went to send a greeting card, but I just heard from their housekeeper that their old lady is having a wedding ceremony these days and they won't accept outsiders at home."

    He naturally knew that this was probably done intentionally by the eldest son of the Zhen family, Zhen Fu, in order to avenge him for deceiving him.

    It¡¯s just that there¡¯s no need to tell outsiders about this festival.

    When Jia Hui and others heard this, they all looked at Jia Cong with sympathy.

    In Jiangnan, the combined weight of the thirteen families is not as strong as the Zhen family.

    The thirteen families in the south of the Yangtze River are all Chinese for a century.

    But except for the four families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue, which have long been separated, in fact, none of the nine families, let alone a hundred years ago, or even thirty years ago, were as powerful as they are today, and they can't be called the Thirteen Jiangnan families.

    However, a year ago, the Zhen family was the number one wealthy family in Jiangnan.

    After the two dynasties of Shengzu and Zhenyuan, the Zhen family became more and more prosperous, but it was hidden under the Thirteen Families and was not known to outsiders.

    Jia Cong cannot visit such a family. In the eyes of Jia Hui and others, the weight is really limited

    They seemed to have forgotten the fact that the incriminating evidence had been submitted and no longer worried about it.

    It seems that as long as they can make good friends with the Zhen family, these are nothing.

    Looking at the arrogant men of the Twelfth House, Jia Cong could only think of the word "absurd" in his heart.

    He seemed to suddenly understand the meaning of drunken life, dreams, death and profit, which makes him faint. Perhaps most of the Eight Banners disciples in the late Qing Dynasty in his previous life were like this.

    After enjoying the pleasure of being sober while everyone else was drunk for a while, Jia Cong said to Jia Hui and others: "The Nine Old Masters and others are all in trouble, why don't we just stop here today? There will be more opportunities in the future"

    Hearing what he said, although Jia Hui and others felt that they had not finished speaking, they had no choice but to lead a large group of children from the twelfth room and escort a few old masters home to rest.

    After the few bystanders of the historian had also left, Jia Cong ordered Jin Cai to tidy up the old house. In a rotten and lifeless atmosphere, he looked at the plaque on the main gate building to build the Rongguo Mansion, and boarded the  The carriage returned to Qianhu Station in Taiping.
