Xie Heng bowed and said, "This subject obeys."

On the way out of the palace.

A few officials who were accompanying Zhao Feng revealed anxious looks on their faces: "The two empires' negotiations were all led by the crown prince or other princes, with the Ministry of Rites assisting them from the side. This time's Great Jin peace talks is something that will be recorded in the annals of history. "If Your Highness can help me with this …"

As he was speaking, Zhao Zhi sneered: "This matter has already been handed over to royal father, what are you still muttering about?"

Zhao Feng turned his head and said: "Prince Rui's words are wrong. Peace talks are a national affair, even if royal father hands this matter over to General Xie, as the two of us are also the sons of the Tian Family, how can we just leave it at that? Prince Rui, don't forget, this Great Yan is our Zhao Family's domain! "

Zhao Zhi's smile turned cold: "Your Highness, I think it would be better if you could think of a way to let the commoners eat their fill."

As the two brothers spoke, Xie Heng stepped down from the white jade stage and said indifferently: "Crown Prince, Prince Rui. Can the two of you give way? "

When the two heard this, their expressions froze.

There were a lot of officials following behind them, and in the time it took for them to speak, they had all gathered together.

When the young man spoke, the two groups of people retreated, the official robe flew with the wind, the black gauze moved, everyone's expressions were different, no one made a sound, only Xie Heng's footsteps could be heard clearly in the gale.

"Your highnesses, feel free to do so."

The youth nodded, without looking at the expressions of these people, he said: "This subject will go first."

"General Xie, do you believe that the Great Jin envoys are sincere in coming to negotiate?" Zhao Zhi took a big step towards him, "My Great Yan's one hundred thirty thousand people died a violent death, my Xie Family's few hundred people's blood debt, can General Xie really tolerate this and negotiate with them?"

The youth's attitude towards this matter was so calm that it was hard to fathom.

Xie Heng stopped and turned, "What does Prince Rui mean by this?"

Zhao Zhi said in a stern voice: "Great Yan and Great Jin will never become allies. Either we destroy him, or he destroys us.

"Prince Rui!"

The normally good-natured Zhao Feng could not help but scowl, "Are you going to openly incite the General Xie to disobey royal father's decree?"

The two princes were at loggerheads, all the firepower was focused on Xie Heng, they were only waiting for him to speak, the outcome of the battle was obvious.

The young man's expression did not change, "Has His Highness Prince Rui finished speaking?"

Zhao Zhi's face stiffened, "General Xie should understand my meaning."

"To be honest, this subject doesn't quite understand."

Xie Heng looked like he did not want to know anything, he cupped his hands and said: "It's almost dark, I have matters to attend to at home, so I will be leaving first."

Zhao Zhi wanted to speak, but Zhao Feng interrupted him and asked, "Why is Prince Rui forcing him to do so?"

The latter choked but did not say anything.

Zhao Feng acted like a good person, "General Xie, go ahead, don't delay anything."

Xie Heng nodded, then turned and left the palace.

In the dusk, the north wind blew crazily, causing everyone to almost lose their balance. Countless ginkgo leaves fluttered in the air. The young man walked away steadily, being carried away by the wind by the red horns of his robe.

Wang Yichang sighed softly, "I'm afraid this time, it will be too difficult to negotiate with the Great Jin."

Everyone looked at each other with different expressions on their faces.

Someone added, "No. Xie Heng was a big variable, once this huge matter falls into his hands, we will … It's better to pray for yourself. "

Dijing, North Street.

Wen Jiu got his men to take off the tea house's signboard, all the decorations inside were also rejuvenated.

People were coming and going on the street. A group of maids followed her and stood in front of the door. They looked up at the two-story house.

Jin Er ran over in a hurry, "Young Madame, the signboard is already set up, what questions are you looking for?"

Wen Jiu had completed everything in the winery, but he had forgotten to name the winery.

"Look at my memory."

She rubbed the space between her eyebrows. "Don't worry. Just think about it."

"My Young Madame, it's opening tomorrow already. You haven't even thought about the name of your shop, how come you aren't anxious at all!" Jin Er's beautiful face flushed red.

The emperor was not in a hurry, and the imperial guards were in a hurry.

Wen Jiu smiled slowly: "There's wine here."

"What?"

The maids all thought that they had not heard him clearly.

Wen Jiu said: "The name of the restaurant is: There is wine here."

Jin Er said in embarrassment: "Young Madame, although I am a little anxious, but you don't need to be so casual, right …. "Do you want to think about the name of this store?"

A few maids whispered, "This person knows that we're selling wine."

"That's it."

Wen Jiu did not have the intention to change his plans. In his previous life, spending time together with Meng Chengyun was a waste of time to nag at words.

Jin Er looked to be in a difficult position.

Wen Jiu laughed as he threw over a silver ingot, "Go and tell the shopkeeper that you want to sell your signboard together, it's still the same timing as before, not a moment late!"

"Yes sir!" Jin Er replied.

"Young Madame! "This is the invitation that the officials sent to the residence." The servant girl who was left behind in General's Mansion came into the shop with a stack of posts, "Take a look and see if any of them need a reply."

"Put it on the table first."

Wen Jiu was busy tasting the wine, some of them were finished and processed from the outside, while the others were brewed using a secret technique to speed up the process, the taste was about the same, and they were separated into upper, middle and lower quality.

After hanging up the name of the signboard, it would be placed at the same price tomorrow and sold immediately.

After so many days, the maids had gradually gotten to work and were busy trying to differentiate the seats.

Wen Jiu scooped up a spoonful of wine and scattered it in the air. A total of ten wine cups were arranged and when the wine was poured into them, the cups were 80% full, without a single drop missing.

Instantly, the fragrance of the wine filled the air. The flickering candlelight and the faint color of the wine reflected off each other.

She smiled and said, "I'll let you guys have your first jar of wine."

The maidservants looked at each other, each taking a cup of wine to savor the wine.

After a moment everyone asked in surprise: "Why is the wine sweet?" "It smells so good." It's not the same as what I used to drink. "

"You can brew such wine in just a few days?" Could it be that Young Madame knows some immortal arts? "

Wen Jiu laughed, the corners of his eyes raised, and he said in a low voice while pretending to be mysterious: "Secret."

Everyone wanted to ask again, but someone suddenly knocked on the door lightly, "Excuse me, are the Fifth Young Madame s from General Xie Palace here?"

Wen Jiu said: "Yes."

"Greetings to Young Madame."

"I heard that the Young Madame's winery is about to open up, and it just so happens that my young miss is going to hold her wedding ceremony tomorrow. I'm afraid that there isn't enough wine to gather, so I came to Young Madame to ask."

"How much more do you need, Madam?"

Wen Jiu stepped forward and asked.

"Our Hou Mansion will take care of all the goods in the Young Madame."

The beautiful woman handed over a card and a note worth eight thousand silver, "This is the deposit. Young Madame will definitely be here tomorrow."

With that, he left with the two maidservants.

Wen Jiu took the banknotes, opened the thread and looked, his expression suddenly changing.
