The room was brightly lit, and there was a strange fragrance floating in the air, and everything seemed peaceful and quiet. However, Han Mo was shocked by the secret history of the royal family of the Qing Kingdom mentioned by Cao Yin. When he heard that Qing Kingdom and the former crown prince and his son were buried in the fire at the same time, he was shocked, but he was also a little sad.

It seems that not only is the internal danger of the royal family of Yan State full of difficulties, but the danger of the palace of Qing State is not inferior to that of Yan State. If Princess Frost has not lost her bag and entered such a deep pit, with her innocent and unscheming personality, it would be a lot of danger.

Zi'er becomes a substitute and will inevitably fall into this steep land. However, compared to Shuang'er, Zi'er's scheming is obviously much stronger. In the inner garden of the palace, only such people can survive with difficulty.

"I was burned to death one after another, and the position of the rear was vacant, so I naturally had to establish a new queen." Cao Yin said slowly: "Although there were many disputes in the middle, in the end, this Concubine Lu ascended the throne of the queen and became the mother of the Qing Kingdom."

"This woman is really not simple." Han Mo sighed: "In just five years, he was able to have a turbulent force in Qingguo, and he could compete with a person like Shang Zhongli...Grave!"

Cao Yin smiled and said, "The so-called ascension to heaven, and the chickens and dogs are obtained. Concubine Lu becomes Qinghou, and the Hexi Lu clan naturally becomes prosperous. However, the Lu merchant's luck is really bad. His daughter becomes the queen, but he is killed by a serious illness. His majesty is not shown, so he goes to the King of Hell to report it." After a pause, he continued, "It's just that the Lu clan has indeed received blessings because of this. The two brothers of Qinghou both came to the court, one is Lu Shangde, who we see, the great uncle of Qingguo, and the other is Lu Shangxin, who is called the little uncle. These two people are the main figures of the Hou Party...!"

Han Mo said: "These two uncles have helped Qinghou a lot!"

Cao Yin showed a strange smile. This strange smile appeared on his beautiful face, but instead showed a strange beauty. "If the rise of the Hou Party really came to light, Emperor Qing made great contributions. Emperor Qing was greedy for beauty. Emperor Qing was a beauty of a generation, and with enough means, he was naturally favored by Emperor Qing. Emperor Chongren was not stingy. After Lu became the queen, Emperor Qing never stopped rewarding the Lu clan. At the beginning, he rewarded gold, silver and wealth. Later, he rewarded the land on a large and large scale. The land obtained by uncles from all over the country was ten thousand. In addition, if this marquis did not make any mistakes in the land obtained by other members of the Lu clan, the Lu clan now has two of the tenth place in Qing state!"

Han Mo's eyes flashed with strange colors. It seems that Emperor Qing is really a big foolish monarch.

The emperor of Yan State was enduring humiliation and thinking about taking back the land from the aristocratic family step by step. Emperor Qing was better than that, instead, he rewarded a large area of ​​Qing State's land to his relatives.

In fact, deep down in Han Mo, he really had some admiration for Emperor Yan.

At least Emperor Yan was an ambitious emperor, and he was able to endure in adversity, endure shame that an emperor could not bear, and never forgot to restore the authority of the royal family.

In comparison with Emperor Yan, the emperor of Qing State was really bad.

"The Lu clan also made full use of these lands." Cao Yin said calmly: "There are countless manors on these lands, and each manor is a stronghold of the Hou Party. They hired a large number of strong men to cultivate land and mine minerals for them. Qing State has a vast land and 20% of the land occupied by the Lu clan is already an extremely vast tract of land. How many strong men need to be hired? And how much wealth can these lands create for them? If the Lu manors under the jurisdiction gather together, it will not be a small number. Some people have silver, and the foundation of the Lu clan has been deeply rooted in Qing State."

Although Han Mo was a native of Yan, he was shocked when he heard this. The Lu clan developed in this way, but Emperor Chongren let it go. This was the pretext of a destruction of the country.

But for Yan State, the more chaotic Qing State, the better.

"The people of Qing Dynasty pay attention to luxury and always talk about pomp. The cost of Qing Dynasty officials is several times more than that of my Dayan officials." Cao Yin still had a strange smile on his lips: "Especially those civil officials in Qing Dynasty, who are very elegance and are very popular, but those elegant things are often the most expensive. Therefore, the officials in Qing Dynasty are the most inexpensive, and the ones that Qing Dynasty lack most are silver, and the ones that Qing Dynasty does not lack are also silver... Those who have silver and those who lack silver will naturally come together easily after looking around. There are many talented people in Qing Dynasty. This marquis believes that my Dayan Kingdom's literary talent is not as good as those of Qing Dynasty people, but these elegant techniques have made their backbone slowly disappear, and the officials who bent their knees to Qing Dynasty are all over the court."

Han Mo sighed lightly: "Hold a large area of ​​land, with a stable foundation, and there are a large number of hawks and dogs in the court, and the emperor behind her obeys her will. It's no wonder that Qinghou was able to call the wind and rain in Qing Country!"

Cao Yin said: "Hexi Lu family was originally a businessman, but now they have transformed into a royal relative...!"

"Mr. Marquis, since he has become a royal relative, the Lu family will not continue to work in business, right?" Han Mo seemed to think of something when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "There are only three of the four major merchants in Qing State left at that time, right?"

Cao Yin smiled and said, "Since he became a royal relative, it is natural that the Lu family is not good for business on the surface. However, the business world that the Lu family has won the generations of the Hexi Lu family will naturally not be left behind. The four major merchants in the Qing Dynasty, Guan, Yun, Lu and Tao families, all have extremely strong financial resources. However, when the Lu family and the Tao family were rivals in the shopping mall, Lu concubine became Qinghou, and the Tao family was indisputable. In just one year, the Tao family was remediated and lost all their money. It is said that many of the Tao family's children became beggars and begged along the streets. The way to settle accounts after Qinghou and Qiuhou is also very straightforward."

When Han Mo heard the word "guan" among the four major merchants, he jumped slightly, looked at Cao Yin quietly, and waited for him to continue talking.

He only discovered today that this handsome marquis, who is so cool and chrysanthemum, knows a lot in his mind.

"The Guan family has always been in good terms with the Lu family. The father of Qinghou and even became sworn brothers with the head of the Guan family. The two families complement each other in the shopping mall and helped each other, and had a close relationship. The Lu family naturally could not continue to do business on the surface, but they threw the business on the Guan family, and the Guan family became the bank treasury of the Hou Party!" Cao Yin smiled and said, "With the support of the Hou Party, the Guan family has business in the four countries, and it can be regarded as the largest merchant today...!" He smiled and blinked, looking at Han Mo, "Donghai Trading, the Guan family that provides goods to you, is the Hou Party member!"

Han Mo opened his mouth, his eyes twitched, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

All what Cao Yin said tonight was surprising. The Guan family was a member of the Later Party, which surprised Han Mo again.

He knew for a long time that the Guan family trade trade was powerful and must have a strong backstage in Qing State, and he also speculated that the Guan family must have someone in the government and opposition in Qing State.

But he never thought that the Guan family was supported by Qinghou, and he did not expect that Guan Shaohe was actually a member of the Hou Party.

"What about the Yun family?" Han Mo couldn't help asking.

When talking about the "Yun" family, the first thing Han Mo thought of was Yun Canglan, but he didn't know if Yun Canglan was a member of the Yun family, one of the four major merchants in the Qing Dynasty?

In addition, Han Mo even thought of another person.

When he was in the East China Sea, Han Mo clearly remembered that the first time that Guan Shaohe was going to Guan Shaohe, he encountered another big Qing merchant who went to Guan Shaohe.

Han Mo has a good memory, as if the guy who went to Guan’s trading house to find fault with him was also named Yun Shilan!

Yun Shilan seemed to be a fat man, and had a conflict with Guan Shaohe. Later, she also had a conflict with Du Bingyue, the female overlord of the sea. Finally, she was intimidated by the East China Sea little overlord Han Mo and Wuye and left the East China Sea.

So is Yun Shilan and Yun Canglan related?

"The Yun family was the first among the four major merchants in Qing State." Cao Yin explained: "About these four major merchants, the Yun family rose first. If the information is correct, the Yun family began to do business in the previous dynasty. The Yun family originated in Zhongshan County, Qing State. The Yun family was also a merchant that has been passed down for more than a hundred years in Qing State. It is deeply rooted in the business circle of Qing State, and has great prestige and connections. When the Qing Dynasty Li family took Qi State and replaced it, the Yun family secretly supported the Li family and provided a large amount of money for the Qing State. Therefore, the Qing State was established.

Later, the Yun family naturally gained a reputation. With the support of the court, the Yun family's business naturally became bigger." After a pause, he smiled and said, "Even if the Lu family gave all the business to the Guan family on the surface, the assets of the two wealthy merchants of Guanlu were merged into one place, thus surpassing the Yun family to become the largest merchant in Beiqing, but the Yun family did not seem to be afraid. Over the years, it has been able to compete with the Guan family. In the shopping mall, although the freight rate is slightly weak, it seems that the Guan family wants to defeat the Yun family, in the current view, it is almost impossible."

"With Qinghou being supported, the Guan family cannot defeat the Yun family. That can only be said that the Yun family also has a backer in the court." Han Mo said slowly: "The only one who can compete with Qinghou in Qinghou is Shang Zhongli... Does that mean that the backer behind the Yun family is the military?"

Cao Yin laughed and said, "It's good that you can think of this. The Yun family has a close relationship with the military. In fact, most of the equipment and materials of the Qing State military were handed over to the Yun family for financing. The dispute between the military and the Hou Party spread to all corners of the Qing State, from top to bottom, and even the shopping malls cannot be escaped!"

"So does Yun Canglan have a relationship with the Yun family?" Han Mo finally asked the questions in his heart.

Cao Yin smiled and said, "Yun Canglan... is indeed a child of the Yun clan in Zhongshan!"
