Time didn't wait for anyone, and after the two of them made up their plans, Zhao Liben set off for Yangzhou to lobby Zou Yinglong.

Zou Yinglong was the deputy chief censor and Prime Minister of Jiangnan and Jiangxi Salt Administration, and his yamen was in Yangzhou.

After seeing off his grandfather, Zhao Hao returned to the study and asked Secretary Ma to write two letters.

A letter was written to Yang Bo, the Minister of Personnel. He first asked the old Xi'er how his company was running in Shanxi. He also introduced that his Jiangnan company was on track and he could help him build the railway as soon as the next year.

After drawing the big cake, he tactfully proposed that the gentry in Jiangnan all hoped that Hai Rui could replace Lin Run. If there was a chance to make up, please be sure to help him add him to the court list.

Everyone once tacitly fell together. If you don’t give me this kind of favor, can you still have fun together? Do you want to build the Zhengtai Railway to connect Shanxi and Zhongyuan?

Then, Zhao Hao asked Ma Xianglan to write a letter to Cao Sanyang.

In fact, he had no friendship with this Cao Zhongcheng at all, but he was very big during the holidays.

Cao Sanyang arrested his father and asked someone to search him. Zhao Hao also took the help of the lord and took a walk outside the Yingtian Prefecture yamen, which indirectly led to Cao Sanyang being kicked out of the capital.

The two sides have formed a bond.

But in his letter to Cao Sanyang, Zhao Hao praised him very much and even flattered him, and welcomed him home to serve as Governor Yingtian. I believe he will definitely help Lin Zhongcheng seek justice and get rid of the giant thief who harmed Jiangnan!

Sister Ma held the pen as the young master said, while covering her mouth and laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

"Young Master is not afraid of backfiring. Cao Zhongcheng really thinks you welcome him back?"

"How could that happen?" Zhao Hao shook his head and said, "That day, the Xu Conference was held at Huafangzhai. Cao Sanyang's second brother was also on the list and he was still dying for the alliance. I don't believe in such a big thing, how can he not communicate with his younger brother?"

"If the young master doesn't write this letter, Cao Zhongcheng will probably give up." Mr. Zhao has a bad memory, and Ma Xianglan is half his brain. Naturally, he knows that the Cao family in Yixing is a major raw silk merchant in Jiangnan and is a downstream supplier of the Nine Great Masters. Of course, he dare not offend the public.

"Haha, I am showing my gratitude to him." Zhao Hao sat on the desk, looking at the beautiful and elegant glasses with a smile.

"We have to show the demeanor of the leader to unite all the forces that can be united and defeat the evil enemies."

Ma Xianglan couldn't help but feel a little confused when she looked at Zhao Hao. Who would have thought that this young man who was full of energy was so frightened by the nightmare that he dared not sleep alone last night?

"How about writing? Why are you stupid?" Mr. Zhao, who was unaware of nothing, wondered that a hint of redness appeared on Ma Xianglan's face. "Do you have a fever?"

As he said that, he reached out to touch Sister Ma's forehead and touched his own with the other hand. "No, it's colder than me."

"Maybe the charcoal basin in the house is too hot." At this time, Qiaoqiao came in, Ma Xianglan hurriedly lowered her head and quickly started writing.

Qiaoqiao came to ask the two to have lunch. She looked at Sister Ma’s red face suspiciously, lowered her lips, and held back and didn’t say anything.

~~

After Zhao Hao had lunch, he went to Longjiang Shipyard to meet Wu Shilai with Gao Wuxiwa.

Qiaoqiao only then got the opportunity and tried Ma Xianglan in the first trial.

While she was packing the dishes, she glanced at Ma Xianglan, who was dusting the antiques from time to time.

Finally, I couldn't help asking, "What happened last night?"

"What's going on?" Sister Ma looked at the cute Qiaoqiao in a strange way.

"When I got up to prepare breakfast, I saw that you were not on the bed, and the quilt was also cold." Qiao Qiao puffed her cheeks.

"Oh, this is it." Sister Ma said calmly: "The young master had a nightmare last night. When I went into the room to see it, he grabbed his hand in his sleep. He couldn't make it away, so he had to sit by the bed all night. Fortunately, there was a ground dragon in the bedroom, otherwise he would have to catch a cold."

As she said that, she pounded her shoulder and said, "It's still sour."

"How is that?" Qiaoqiao showed a sudden look and couldn't help feeling guilty. Sister Ma taught herself so much, but she still suspected her. It was too much.

"I'll finish my work later, I'll press it for you." Qiaoqiao whispered.

"Okay." Ma Xianglan smiled at her and continued to clean.

After a while, Qiaoqiao said annoyedly: "Why didn't I hear anything?"

"You slept so hard that you couldn't hear thunder." Ma Xianglan smiled.

"Oh..." Qiaoqiao lowered her head and was speechless. She had to eat well since she was a child and could sleep well. What could she do?

"By the way." Suddenly, Ma Xianglan whispered: "I received a letter from the little county lord in the morning. She has left the capital and headed south. Now Is she almost coming to Shandong?"

"Ah, is that?" Qiaoqiao was indeed attracted to her attention and asked in surprise: "Why didn't you listen to the young master?"

"The county lord doesn't let him tell the young master, saying he wants to give him a surprise." Ma Xianglan explained with a smile.

"It's almost the same scare..." Qiao Qiao muttered and whispered: "The county lord believes in you so much. If she knew that we were standing on Miss Jiang's side, how sad it would be."

"What nonsense? We are young masters, and we don't stand anywhere." Ma Xianglan felt it was necessary to say it clearly so that Qiao Qiao would become a teammate of the pig.

"Remember I told you the story of Weiguo?"

"Yeah." Qiaoqiao's historical knowledge was taught by Sister Ma, and she still remembers the story of the country that she highly praised.

"Sister said that it was a very magical country, which has existed for more than 900 years, and it is the longest-loving country in history. Even Qin Shihuang unified the six countries and let it go."

"Weiguo is not a corner, but is located in the heart of the Central Plains, with no danger to guard. From the Spring and Autumn Period, we have strong neighbors to stay around." Sister Ma smiled sweetly and gently stroked the feather duster in her hand:

"We should learn how to survive in the country."

"How can I understand this?" The little chef looked at Secretary Ma in embarrassment. "I only know how many folds the buns should have."

"Oh." Ma Xianglan rubbed her temples with a headache, but still explained patiently: "First of all, many talents in Weiguo emerged. Although the country is not big, it has outstanding strength. You can understand that adults must have their own strengths."

"Yeah." The little chef nodded vigorously, I have this.

"But at the same time, they can rationally recognize their weakness. They have never had any inappropriate thoughts and will not hinder the eyes of the great powers. In this way, the neighboring Qi and Jin countries have maintained good relations with it, and they are worried that it will turn to the other side. The great powers will check and balance each other, and no one will have the idea of ​​defending the country."

"That's how..." Qiaoqiao suddenly realized that Sister Xianglan told her bedtime story, which had such a profound meaning.

"It turns out that my sister thinks that only one Qi State is not enough, and another Jin State needs to be added."

"My sister is so smart." Ma Xianglan happily kissed Qiaoqiao. "If it were a boy, he would definitely be able to get a Jinshi exam."

"Then my sister is the No. 1 female lead." Qiao Qiao smiled sweetly, how could she remember the little grudges?

Sister Ma quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, she didn't say anything because she was worried about surpassing Qiaoqiao's understanding ability, that is, her vision and ability to stand in the team.

The most amazing thing about Wei Guo’s country was that it could stand in different teams under different circumstances, and without any trace of its presence, and not engage in evil with other countries.

Finally, after the Qin Dynasty was unified, he took the initiative to surrender, which was actually a kind of sideline that would cause the least harm to the people.

Although Wei State is weak, it is not humble, so it should be like this in life.
