As a treacherous minister, Yan Mu used his power to use his power to use coercion and temptation or power to bully others. In short, he won a lot of resources and used it to make huge profits.

Money shops, iron smelting workshops, cargo ships to sea, east-west caravans, etc., he had many industries under his name, but he actually did not love money. After all, at that time, he didn't even love his own life.

Although he controlled these industries, Shangguan Xu'an actually had many of his own people. Yan Mu probably knew that, but he didn't care. Therefore, when he fell into the hands of the court and was sent to the Northern Jin Dynasty, these industries were immediately taken over by Shangguan Xu.

"He took so much from you. As long as we go back to Lanyuan, he won't return it." Liu Yunxiang said this, but in fact he was unsure.

She didn't know Shangguan Xu, but she only felt that this person was very conflicted. As the governor of the West Factory, everyone was afraid of him, but he always smiled and looked very kind. He raised Yan Mu and loved him very much, but he planned to frame him and even killed him again and again. And when he was as his uncle, he really tried his best, but once when she saw Shangguan Xu and Qin Fei, he was cold on his face and even a little disgusted in his eyes.

This person is hard to see through.

"To this day, I can't understand why he saved me when Yan's mansion was circulated."

Moreover, he taught him to be scheming, temper his will, and give him space to display. If it was to clear some obstacles for Qin Fei, he would have taught him too much, so much that he could not be controlled by him.

Yan Mu said this and his eyes became a little colder. What is more terrifying than betrayal and framed is the betrayal and framed by the people he trusts and closest to.

When he arrived at the Governor's Mansion, the gatekeeper saw Yan Mu and subconsciously shouted: "Seventh Master."

He was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly changed his words and greeted them and asked them to wait outside the mansion. He went in and reported.

Yan Mu hugged his shoulders, "This old guy has been sick recently and is half dead, so he may not be willing to see us."

After a while, the concierge came out and asked them both to come in.

After entering the door, the doorman said, "The Lord of the Superintendent is in Haitang Pavilion, Qi... Seventh Prince, the servant cannot live without here. If you know the way, then go with the princess."

Yan Mu glanced at the doorman and was covered in white hair. When he entered the mansion, at least half of his head was still black.

He didn't say anything and took Liu Yunxiang in.

The rich embroidery house of the Governor's Mansion looked very luxurious, but when he walked inside, he found that the front yard seemed deserted. There were many weeds in the garden and dead leaves piled up on the road. Walking all the way to the back yard, the huge mansion was empty and could not be seen by a servant.

"No wonder the doorman said he couldn't leave." Liu Yunxiang said and looked around again, but he still didn't see anyone. "Why is there no one in the house?"

There is a study, a martial arts training ground, and a stable in the front yard. Yan Mu thought that in the past, there was the fourth brother who had never been exposed to his face. They practiced martial arts in this front yard for the other five days, or competed.

At that time, he was young, and ran around the yard, scrambled and removed the tiles. In order to serve them, there were many servants in the house, and they would run into people if they were anxious. But as soon as Shangguan Xu came back, they would be honest and come forward one by one to pay homage.

At that time, Shangguan Xu's favorite words were: "Look, I'll just demolish the governor's mansion!"

After passing through the veranda, walking through the hall, and coming to the backyard, Liu Yunxiang turned to ask Yan Mu: "Where is Haitang Pavilion?"

Yan Mu silently took Liu Yunxiang to the west veranda, passed through the hanging flower gate, and passed a small garden. Finally, he came to the Begonia Pavilion. Begonia trees were planted in the Begonia Pavilion. When he walked to the door, Yan Mu stood in front of a Begonia tree.

"This is a crabapple tree in the Western Palace. When the flowers bloom, it is very prosperous and like a brocade. This is what I planted when I first entered the palace. I was ten years old that year and was clamoring to meet the Yan family. The old guy told me that if you plant this tree, it can take root here, and you can do it. At that time, this crabapple tree was thinner than its little finger, and its leaves were dry. Unexpectedly, after planting it, it miraculously lived. Now it has grown so tall." Yan Mu said a lot of emotion.

Many years have passed, trees have grown taller, people have changed, and things in the world have become more impermanent.

Just when Yan Mu was feeling a lot, Shangguan Xu came out, wearing a light blue robe, with a haggard face, and a lot thinner, looking very unenergetic.

He glanced at Yan Mu first, then looked at the crabapple and said, "In fact, the crabapple you planted is dead."

Yan Mu frowned, "What does it mean?"

Shangguan Xu coughed dryly, "If you die, you will die. I am not afraid of you crying and making trouble. I secretly moved a tree here at night. I didn't know that it was too dark at night and I didn't see it clearly, so I planted it into another variety. This tree is not a begonia of Xifu, but a begonia of weeping silk."

Yan Mu's face turned dark, "At that time, Shen Yunzhou said that I was a wolvesting crabapple. I argued with him, and we were so angry that we were red and we even had a fight."

"Yun Zhou was wronged, so I coaxed him to say that the new brother is not very smart and asked him to give in to you more in the future."

"He later called me Sha Laoqi. Until I was better than him and beat him up, he didn't dare to shout like this."

Shangguan Xu smiled and said, "So I have taught you since I was a child, not to trust anyone. Even if you think you are closest to him, he may not be honest with you."

Yan Mu snorted coldly and sat down on the stone bench in the yard.

Liu Yunxiang took two steps forward and nodded at Shangguan Xu, "Shangguan Governor, we are here today..."

"Princess, let's sit first and taste the filial red robe below."

Shangguan Xu interrupted Liu Yunxiang, greeted a little maid at the door, and then sat down opposite Yan Mu. Soon the little maid came over and carried a teapot and tea cup.

Shangguan Xu asked her to put it down, and then poured three cups of tea himself, pushed one cup to Yan Mu, and one cup to Liu Yunxiang.

"Take it, Dahongpao produces very little every year, and there are not many filial piety below. I can't bear to drink it on weekdays." He said as he looked at Yan Mu.

Yan Mu picked up the cup of tea in front of him and pulled the corner of his mouth, "I don't dislike the tea handed over by others, no matter how hard the tea handed over by the Supervisor, I dare not drink it."

Shangguan Xu smiled, then picked up the cup of tea in front of him and tasted it carefully.

"The Seventh Prince is now of a noble status. If something happens to me at my servant's house, I will not be enough to cut off my head if I have a hundred heads."

Yan Mu hummed and then took a sip, "You are alone, and you are only one head, and it's not worth it."

"The family was so lively in those years. Later, after leaving one by one, the family became pure. It's good that it was purity. I loved purity, but I was probably old. I always felt lonely in the past two years and wanted to hear the noise again." Speaking of this, Shangguan Xu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "But you are destined not to be the crabapple in this courtyard, and you are not in the governor's mansion."
