The carriages and sedans flowed on the streets. The women and children were getting thicker and thicker, and there were also talented scholars who were walking and stopping by the street. There were also many artful talented scholars who came to the railing to enjoy the scenery. The folding fan was swaying gently, and they felt it was too cold, so they took it back in disappointment.

Cao Hua was wearing a black robe and walked slowly on the street. Although he was not decorated, his cold temperament still kept many people away.

Under the eaves on the street, Miss Shen put her hands on her chest and took small steps, hanging from a distance with fear. Sometimes she looked around and didn't know what to look at. She seemed to want to run but didn't dare to run.

After a long time, Chen Yu finally got up with courage and ran after him with his skirt. His face turned red:

"Sir...Sir...Wait."

Cao Hua turned his head and said, "Miss Chen, you have to pay extra for overnight."

"Ph...No, I'm sorry..."

Chen Yu walked up to him with his neck shrank, not daring to look up, and muttered in a low voice: "Whoever pretends to be Cao Taisui, they actually believe it."

Cao Hua raised his eyebrows: "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting."

Chen Yu is not a fool. After a long time of twisting, he put down his hand that was shrinking in his chest and bowed slightly:

"Minister Cao..."

He spoke hesitantly, sometimes he secretly glanced at him, and then quickly lowered his head.

Cao Hua smiled and continued walking along the street: "I have never been fooled by my business. Since I have collected the appearance fee, I naturally have to settle the matter without taking it to my heart."

"...Thanks..."

Chen Yu responded in a low voice and followed behind and walked with his head down.

Today, when Cao Taisui spoke, it was equivalent to becoming the backer of the Shen family.

The merchant family always has a big tree to enjoy the cool air. No one dares to mess with the favored Concubine Wan of the Wang family. Everyone likes tea and silk, at most, has some connection with the family under the command of the Grand Master of the Xiangye.

On the small road of merchants, where you dare to be treated solemnly by the court giants, like the high-ranking and powerful kings, princes and generals, you may not know which merchants you have to rely on.

Cao Hua, who is the famous Kyoto Tai Sui, had a bad reputation last month and even curbed all the civil and military officials of the court. Who would dare not sell his face in the capital?

Going up to the next level, there is the Night Emperor Xue Jiuquan, who is in charge of the inner court. No matter how beautiful the beauties in the palace are, they have to have the chance to be seen by the emperor. They offended Eunuch Xue to wash clothes in the cold palace for the rest of their lives. The fairy can't even make a name for herself. Even Concubine Wan has to be cautious.

Now Cao Taisui comes forward to make the decision for the Shen family, what does it mean?

The Shen family is going to send it!

But merchants always care about interests and there is no pie that falls down for no reason.

Chen Yu was smart and followed behind slowly, thinking about Cao Taisui's purpose.

Time goes back, back to February, in the douhua shop.

She was wearing her favorite warm yellow silk dress and dressed very beautifully, and said:

"Auntie Feng, take two bowls of tofu with you."

At that time, there was no one in the shop, so there was only a poor scholar sitting there, and he was talking to Aunt Feng.

This is the first time I have met ‘Su Shi’.

At that time, she remembered the stinky scholar, with bad eyes and lustful eyes.

So she said, "Needle, what do you think?"

At that time, the scholar was not only not annoyed, but also politely approached her.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu looked at the King of Kyoto in front of him suspiciously, his eyes full of incredible.

With Cao Taisui's temper, she spoke like that at that time and then surely she would evaporate the world afterwards.

But this guy kept pestering her and finally worked together to start a shop to help her earn money.

How can Kyoto Tai Sui be rare in silver?

The dignified Marquis of Wu'an, who personally did these meaningless things, is definitely not for money, what...

Chen Yu remembered the malicious eyes again, his body suddenly froze, his face was both entangled and frightened, and he muttered and didn't know what to say.

Cao Hua knew from his face that she was thinking randomly, and raised her hand to support her on the wall to block the way.

Standard wall slam.

Unfortunately, before he could speak, Miss Shen walked under her arm without even touching her hair.

Uh... I'm holding it up.

Chen Yu was not as tall as his shoulders, and he was so thrust his feet against the wall.

After Chen Yu walked through it without realizing it, he realized something was wrong. He turned his head and looked, and found that he was very close to Kyoto Taisui, with one arm on his head, and his scary eyes staring at her inexplicably.

"ah--"

Chen Yu screamed in fear, leaned directly against the wall, hugged his little chest with both hands, closed his eyes and said incoherently:

"The surname of Su...No, Lord Cao, I know you have admired me for a long time, I...I..."

"What am I?"

Cao Hua looked down at him and frowned slightly: "Are you crazy?"

Chen Yu shrank his neck and froze for a long time. After finding that Cao Taisui was not destroyed by his harsh hands, he secretly opened a small crack in his eyes: "Well... Lord Cao, I don't mean to look down on you... Don't kill me... I can't beat me..."

“…?”

Cao Hua put his hands on his waist and thought for a long time but couldn't figure out the girl's brain circuit. He thought about it for a while:

"What do I do to beat you? We have signed a contract. Today, I will divide the shop that Wanjia gave up...."

"Why!"

Chen Yu was immediately annoyed and stared at the man in front of him fiercely, but immediately reacted again, squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, with aggrieved look on his face: "Okay... I understand... You are Kyoto Taisui..."

“It’s almost the same.”

Cao Hua nodded with satisfaction and continued to walk to Yanglou Street: "Remember to keep your mouth shut and don't tell outsiders."

"I know..."

Chen Yu squatted on the ground for a while, and saw him walking away, he stood up and continued to follow, muttering in a low voice:

"......Mr. Cao, you can do it, but I, a weak woman, cannot resist it, but I must not make money. My Shen family's possessions are not enough for you to get between your teeth..."

"Miss Chen, please respect yourself."

"Hey--"

Chen Yu was immediately annoyed, and thought for a while, then squatted down with his forehead in his arms: "I respect myself."

Another part was gone.

"Mr. Cao, you can't harm Sister Su. She's pitiful. If you talk to me that day, I'll take her back, don't find a place to bury it..."

“…”

------

Earlier.

Zhuangyuan Building, Xu Chengjian's house.

After Cao Taisui left, Xu Chengjian kept sitting on the chair tremblingly, holding his granddaughter and being distracted. Obviously, the frightenedness had not yet subsided.

Scream-

The gate of the courtyard opened, and several men with hats walked in one after another. They searched carefully in front and behind the courtyard before whistling.

A little bit.

A sedan stopped at the entrance of the yard, and Cai You, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked slowly into the yard.

The subordinate brought a chair and bowed and said, "I have been staring at me since the morning, and I have just made some noise around me. No one came to check it out. The Black Feather Guard's secret whistle thought he had left."

Cai You nodded slowly and sat down on the chair. Several men stood around holding torches.

The little girl started crying again, squatting on the ground and shouting: "Mom...Mom..."

Xu Chengjian knelt on the ground tremblingly and said tremblingly: "Young Master Cai, I... have already acted as you told me..."

Cai You held the little drum playing with the child in his hand, and turned around for a few times, teasing the crying girl:

"Repeat what happened just now."

Xu Chengjian knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "According to your instructions, I will wait in the yard with candied haws and Ya'er. Cao Taisui comes alone..."

After explaining it in detail, including Cao Taisui's expression changes, they were all described in detail.

After listening to it, Cai You nodded gently: "If you are like a snake or a scorpion, you will die if you touch it... Haha, Kyoto Tai Sui, I didn't expect that there would be times when I was lenient."

Xu Chengjian was sweating all over and knelt on the ground: "The matter has been done, my old things, and my children and grandchildren..."

Cai You's eyes were plain, and she raised her hand to rub the little girl's hair: "As a court official, he was a gambler, and owed 7,000 taels of silver in the gambling house. Finally, he misappropriated the yamen's deposits for his position. How could I, Cai You, deliberately protect me..."

Xu Chengjian shook his whole body slightly, and he said with a trembling voice: "I know my guilt, but... I am just a dog since childhood, and my grandson is only three years old. I have given up this cheap life. Now I have survived from Cao Taisui. The young master agreed in advance..."

Cai You shook his head and chuckled, throwing the drum to the ground: "Corruption and abuse of power, fabricating disobedience and offending the emperor, the crime is unforgivable. When you bring it to justice, I will protect your family for a lifetime."

Xu Chengjian was shocked and lay on the ground and said wailingly: "Mr. Cai, please spare your life. The things you wrote are no different from plotting against others..."
