Chapter 57 If you need money in the future, come to me
Qin Liu Sansan withdrew his gaze.

This little girl named Xiao Tao just had the words "You are very ignorant" written on her face.

Qin Liu did not give up and had the momentum to not give up until she hit the south wall. She enthusiastically sat by the kang and greeted Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao, is your eldest young master easy to get along with?"

Xiao Tao suppressed the urge to roll her eyes and said angrily: "My eldest young master is the only son of our eldest son, and the most beloved grandson of the Duke of Guo.

Although he is over [-] years old and has not married yet, my eldest young master would rather lack than have sex!In order to force him to marry a wife, the prince broke several whips!He refused to let go!
Some people outside are slandering me and saying that my eldest son is a broken sleeve, but I don’t believe it!I have never seen him bring an unclean man home!
but,"

Xiao Tao paused, then glanced unkindly at Qin Liu, who was listening with interest, and said: "My eldest young master is the proud son of heaven. In the future, not everyone can imagine that he will inherit the title of the Duke of Duke. That Dingxi Marquis. All the ladies from the mansion are chasing after the Xuan mansion, but my eldest young master is ignoring them. Girls from ordinary families should not have the dream of flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix."

Qin Liu thought that Xiao Tao was a wonderful person, but he didn't bother with him anymore.

It's better to catch up on some more sleep and go see Master Zhu tomorrow morning.I don’t know how the little mute is doing now?

However, Zhu Yue had had the opportunity to kill him before, so he shouldn't do it now, right?
After killing Dayan Khan's son, Dayan Khan will definitely lead his army to take revenge.He shouldn't be so stupid as to attract hatred for himself.

It was bright and bright the next day. Qin Liu ate the breakfast brought by Xiao Tao and rinsed his mouth before letting Xiao Tao lead him to see Zhu Yue.

Qin Liu looked at the surrounding environment as he walked.

This is a well-maintained courtyard with carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water. It is not at all like the bitter cold place outside the pass.

Arriving at a courtyard with a plaque that read "Qingsongju", Xiaotao's steps were much more light and cautious.

The gatekeepers at the door were two talented young men with handsome features, who opened the door for them.

After crossing the high threshold, Qin Liu saw the picturesque profile of a man standing by the window on the east side of the main room, talking to the people in the room.

The sun shone on the side of the man's face, making it look particularly soft and warm.

The man also looked over quickly and quickly ended the conversation.

Two middle-aged men came out of the room, both dressed like businessmen. As they walked away, they frowned and said, "It's hard to handle such a large quantity in such a short time! Alas!"

"There is no other way, we can only do our best!"

Qin Liu watched the businessman go out, turned around and looked again, and found that the man standing by the window was looking at him intently, with a calm expression.

She quickly followed Xiao Tao into the house.

The man said with a half-smile, "Shopkeeper Liu recovers quickly."

Qin Liu smiled awkwardly: "Master Zhu, is my man okay? Please don't hurt him..."

Zhu Yue's eyes darkened slightly: "Shopkeeper Liu is quite generous. He gives shares to a clerk and is very caring. Don't you know who he is?"

Qin Liu's heart trembled, and he said with a smile on his face: "Who is he? Isn't he the great hero who helped Xuan Mansion solve the problem of horse shortage?! This time..."

Qin Liu glanced at Xiao Tao standing beside him.

Zhu Yue waved his hand to Xiao Tao to leave. A servant came in to serve tea and then left voluntarily, closing the door behind him.

Qin Liu's voice became much lower: "This time the Mongolian Khan Court plans to sell [-] horses to us, and the price is very reasonable. Lord Zhu..."

Zhu Yue took a sip of tea, but his face became serious: "You are a woman, what are you doing with these things?! 600 taels of silver are not enough for you to live peacefully? You are so audacious!"

Qin Liu was suddenly scolded, and his face became a little unbearable. His expression changed several times, but he still explained patiently: "It's really not enough! The little money you gave me, my Yanzilou, could have earned it back in a few months." . But adults can’t tolerate it!
There are many poor people in our town. I have to have the capital to make a living so that they can have something to do and food to eat!No, your master, Uncle Lou, said that selling horses is more profitable, so he went there..."

Zhu Yue looked at her expressionlessly for a while, then went to take out a box from the drawer of the table and handed it to her: "Here are 1000 taels. It's enough for you to squander for a while. If you need money in the future, just come to me." , stop thinking about taking risks to make money.”

Qin Liu didn't expect him to do this.

She took the box blankly, opened it and saw a stack of silver notes inside, one hundred taels each, ten in total.

She felt strange in her heart, and an embarrassed smile appeared on her face: "Who am I, sir? A commoner woman doesn't dare to take this money..."

The man looked directly into her eyes with his deep gaze: "Who do you think he is?"

Qin Liu looked away guiltily. After a while, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Is he the father of my child?"

Zhu Yuegang sat down to drink tea, and when he heard this, he was so shocked that he spat out a mouthful of tea.

He glanced at Qin Liu with dark eyes, and when he saw her staring at him seriously, he replied seriously: "No." His voice was low.

Qin Liu felt that he was so shameless. When he saw a good-looking man, he would ask if he was his father.

What an embarrassment.

She thought for a while and then asked: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhu, is there a pavilion elder named Liu in our court?"

Zhu Yue'er stared at her nonchalantly and didn't look away for a long time.

Qin Liu was puzzled.

"If it's there, it's there. If it's not, it's not. Why is Mr. Zhu so shocked?"

Zhu Yue slowly lowered his eyes, stood up after a while, and led Qin Liu to the next room.

Next door is a study room, with shelves neatly filled with books. Next to the desk is a large porcelain vat with many scrolls inserted in the vat.

Zhu Yue took out a painting from a locked cabinet on the shelf and hung it on an easel nearby.

Qin Liu was confused by his operation.

She took a closer look at the painting. The name of the painting was "Spring Banquet in Xie's Mansion" and the date was March 18, Hongzhi.

There are pavilions, pavilions, lakes and bridges in the painting.

On one side are several men chatting and laughing while leaning on a railing. On the other side, which takes up most of the painting, is a waterside pavilion. A group of young men and women are reciting poems and composing poems. There are also throwing pots and arrows on the ground that have not been collected in time.

She looked at Zhu Yue doubtfully, and Zhu Yue said calmly: "During the Hongzhi period, there were three elders who were most praised by everyone. 'Li Gongmou, Liu Gongdan, and Xie Gongyou Kankan'."

Zhu Yue found a chair and sat down, talking to himself: "Gong Li, is now the chief minister of the cabinet, Li Dongyang. He is also a leader in the literary world, good at poetry and painting. Mr. Xie is the elder of Xie Qiange. He was born as the number one scholar in Zhejiang Province. A native of Yuyao, his wife is from the Xu family in Suzhou."

Qin Liu pricked up his ears and waited for the next words.

Zhu Yue paused for a moment and continued: "Liu Gongjuan is talking about Liu Jian and Liu Gong from Luoyang. Liu Ge came from a poor family. He has been in the cabinet for 19 years and served as the chief assistant for eight years. He advocates Confucianism and learning, pays attention to practice, and dares to serve as an official. He was honest, upright and upright. Three years ago, in October of the first year of Zhengde, he and Mr. Xie Ge insisted on killing Liu Jin and other eight eunuchs, known as the "Eight Tigers" in the world, but the emperor refused. Mr. Liu Ge and Xie Ge The elders threatened to serve, but the emperor agreed to their appointment."
