When Master Cui heard this, he turned his head and asked, "Brother Yan is coming back. Can you get the first place in the imperial examination next year?"

Song Zhengtian smiled, "It turns out that he still has something to reserve and dare not make a promise, but something happened to Lan'er that aroused his blood. He said that the first name must be his and he will never give in."

"Well, the child is teachable, and you must fight for what you need to fight."

The old prime minister nodded with satisfaction.

"Dad, what are you going to do about the Geng family? Where can I start from?"

Prince Cui touched his beard and smiled and said, "From the man in black, the matter is not over yet. Then he checked. The clues of the victims have been dug up almost all, and many clues have disappeared long ago after the ages. It is a waste of time to investigate again. It would be better to tear the hole from Lan'er's affairs."

"Okay, my son understand."

Cui Yu nodded immediately.

After discussing each other, they went home. Cui Hao rode his horse and reported to his father, "Dad, I'll go see Lan'er, you go back first."

"good."

When he returned to the old house, Zilan was restless and waited for his father to return. When he saw the person coming back, he jumped up happily to meet him, "Dad, you are back, has the emperor embarrassed you? What did you say?"

His eyes were filled with anxiety and eagerness.

"It's okay, let me have a sip of tea first, I'm thirsty."

Song Zhengtian smiled and patted his daughter.

"Oh, Muxiang poured tea."

Zilan quickly ordered and personally served the tea to his father.

Song Zhengtian took a sip of tea without any haste. Zilan scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, and couldn't help laughing.

"The emperor is very pitying for you and has given you an imperial edict to your mother. Your paintings will be left there for the time being. As for the Geng family, the matter is the same as ours, and it will be handed over to Dali Temple for investigation."

Zi Lan blinked her eyes and waved her fingers to count, "Hey, the Geng family suffered a loss. My mother has the imperial edict to be comforted? The Geng family investigated and dealt with the same investigation as ours, and that's not biased and helping.

Does that mean that the emperor has exhausted his patience with the Geng family? Next, it’s time to check the Geng family.

Doing arbitrarily, ruthlessly, and wantonly harming and killing officials and families. This is already full of complaints. No matter how the emperor's majesty is, it will not be able to maintain it."

Zilan judged the conclusions based on his years of hard study of history books and Zizhi Tongjian's wisdom combined with guesses.

Cui Hao's eyes lit up, and he admired and praised her intelligence and keen political attitude.

"Yes, you guessed it's not bad at all. The emperor just turned a blind eye, so this matter was over."

"Where is the queen, do you want to inquire?"

"No hurry, I have someone to do this, so you can stay at home and don't go anywhere."

Song Zhengtian was also frightened and looked at his daughter even tighter.

"Oh, what should I do about Xianglou? The war is about to go, and there are still many things to be dealt with. The Geng family must take revenge. Xianglou's safety issues must be tight-lipped.

All matters need to be reconciled to make arrangements and plans. The red wine business will suffer from wars. I also think that this war costs a lot, and Xianglou's money can only be paid more and not less, otherwise the good feelings accumulated over the years will be in vain.

There are still many things here. I can’t just worry about the affairs. I have to check it out. The money will be handed over in batches and batches now. It’s also good for you and uncle to come back. I’ve managed this Xianglou with one hand. Who is the right replacement for me?"

This is really not that Zi Lan is unwilling to delegate power, but that Xianglou was built by her own hands. It is soaked in her hard work bit by bit, and it may not be able to control it if someone else has it.

Song Zhengtian was also silent. Xianglou is also a very important resource and business of the Song family. It is not all about money, but about the good things in the emperor's heart. Otherwise, why would the emperor say sorry to the girl? This is the accumulation of years, and the emperor has the Song family in his heart.

Cui Hao thought for a while, "It's better to let a uncle who is good at managing, Zi Yan and Zihao and his brothers deal with it together. Lan'er will get married sooner or later, and someone will still need to manage the Xianglou business. You have to learn it. She has been tired over the years, so is it too late to let her make plans and make decisions at home?"

Xianglou involves the emperor's member, so he cannot serve as a dowry for Zilan. This is unclear. Therefore, Xiangpu is a dowry, but Xianglou still belongs to the Song and Yang families.

However, because Xiangpu and Xiangpu are connected, they also make money every day. In fact, the net profit is more than the shares shared by Song and Yang families, so they did not feel wronged at all. But everyone saw the prosperity of Xiangpu and ignored the Xiangpu next to them.

At the beginning, the fragrance shop was run by Yang and his sisters-in-law. Later, because of Xianglou, they retreated from the stock. The Yang family took the money from Xianglou. Before Yang went to Jiangnan, he handed the shop in his daughter's name.

After thinking, Song Zhengtian thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, let Lao Qi do it. He has helped him before, so he has done it. When Brother Yan comes back, let him go and make trouble."

"Sure, then I'll go back and find Uncle Qi to hand over it. It's still time to have more time."

Zi Lan nodded and still had one year before she got married. Because she was not old enough, she could only get married after she was in the hairpin. She could not go out for the time being when she was not old enough. This is to protect the girl, she would have to have a menstrual period at the age of fifteen.

Moreover, the face of a girl is considered a girl’s face if she has to be held at her parents’ home. This is a big event for the big clan.

Song Zhengtian looked at his daughter with a compassionate look, "Your Seventh Uncle has been tinkering with these businesses, and he is also experienced. My daughter, let go when it is time to let go. You must believe that we will not let you down.

Over the years, my father and uncles have so many opportunities. It is because you have worked hard to break a path for us, and we will not let you down."

Zi Lan was stunned for a moment, then smiled brightly and nodded vigorously, "Well, it is my daughter's glory to be able to do things for her father and family. It is my luck and blessing to be able to have a daughter's surname Song."

"Good kid, teach you your plans and ideas to Uncle Qi so that you can leave with confidence."

"Yes, my daughter promised to complete the task."

Zi Lan held her head high and agreed happily.

Song Zhengtian went to the palace and was nervous. He was a little tired and wanted to talk to his wife. So he let Cui Hao and his daughter go to the garden to play for a while, and asked the maid to serve him.

The two came to the garden and in the pavilion, Zilan looked at Cui Hao carefully and didn't speak for a long time.

"Why don't you speak, you're mute?"

Cui Hao looked at her and yelled in anger.

Zi Lan thought about it and said, "I thought you didn't want to pay attention to me. Are you still worried about the matter that day?"

"What do you think, should I be happy or cry?"

Cui Hao looked at her with a smile without a smile, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

Zi Lan twisted her body and explained embarrassedly, "I was really scared and desperate at that time. I was afraid that I would be kidnapped, and I was afraid that you would all die, I..."

Cui Hao turned around and said with a heavy voice, "You just don't trust me enough. You are afraid of being kidnapped and ending like Geng Rongrong.

It shames the whole clan, it shames me, it destroys the alliance between the two families, makes you a sinner, makes your father, brother and mother unable to raise your head, and you are also afraid that I will look down on you and will quit your marriage. You have the courage to die but don’t survive and bear the courage to abuse the world.”
