The old woman said very mysteriously: "The mountain people have their own clever plans."

Hearing that the old woman didn't want to talk, he didn't ask any further questions.

As long as you know that the old woman has helped you and is on your side, that's fine.

Everyone has their own secret.

Although Shen Lian is very smart, except when solving a case, he will ruthlessly tear open the prisoner's heart and expose his deepest secrets to the scorching sun. At other times, he will avoid exploring other people's secrets.

Shen Lian said: "Auntie, I don't think I need to waste my time. I don't know which questions you can answer."

"So, I think it's better for you to just tell me everything you can."

"In this case, it will save you from always rejecting me and causing harm to my young heart, right?"

When the old woman heard Shen Lian's shameless words, she almost spit out a mouthful of wine.

He looked at Shen Lian carefully and said, "Do you have a young mind?"

Shen Lian said: "I am only twenty years old. Compared with you, am I not young?"

"If you weren't ashamed."

"I'm just telling the truth."

The old woman looked at Shen Lian carefully, touched her chin, and said, "Not bad, shameless enough. I'm very happy."

"happy?"

Shen Lian was startled.

The old woman said: "You don't have to understand, anyway, I am very happy to see you like this."

"Since I'm so happy, let me say what I can."

She saw Shen Lian and said: "First, you are in a very dangerous situation now. There are both internal and external dangers, so you should be careful."

Internal and external dangers coexist?

Shen Lian knows about external dangers, so Beidou will!

What does internal danger mean?

Are there anyone from Beidou Huizang in the imperial court?

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and thought in his mind.

"The second one."

The old woman continued: "The Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is not too dangerous. Someone is secretly trying to use the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce to attract your attention. You should be careful about other things."

Shen Lian's eyes flashed.

He suddenly looked at the old woman: "For example?"

The old woman said: "I don't know the specifics. Anyway, just be careful. And I think that with your ability, you won't be unable to judge where there may be danger."

Shen Lian smiled.

He looked at the old woman and suddenly said: "I think I probably know what you have done in Chang'an."

"Auntie, you destroyed those two strongholds of the Beidou Society, right?"

When the old woman heard Shen Lian's words, a look of confusion appeared on her face.

She said: "What are the two strongholds of the Beidou Society?"

Shen Lian took a deep look at the old woman, then smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing."

"There are just some enemies of mine who were killed by a certain heroine."

"But this heroine does good deeds without leaving her name, so I can't even find anyone to thank her for."

"If I meet this heroine in the future, I must say thank you to her for me."

The old woman nodded and said seriously: "Don't worry, I think I am very enthusiastic about this kind of repayment of kindness."

Shen Lian smiled and shook his head.

He picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, saw the old woman and said, "Don't worry, aunt, I've already deduced this matter."

"And I also know that they used two pretexts to attract my attention."

"The Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is just the first one, there is a second cover, and after that, it is their real purpose."

The old woman glanced at Shen Lian and immediately laughed: "I didn't expect you to be quite smart. You have discovered all this."

Shen Lian smiled and said: "The people of the Tang Dynasty gave me face and called me the smartest person in the Tang Dynasty. I can't let them down, right?"

The old woman smiled and nodded.

She looked at Shen Lian and said, "To be honest, you are not as smart as I was when I was young."

Shen Lian smiled and said: "I thought you were going to say that it was comparable to your shameless energy when you were young."

The old woman suddenly became unwilling.

"Who are you calling shameless?"

"I was just a flower back then. Whoever sees me would not praise me."

Shen Lian smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, I was wrong."

"That's pretty much it."

The old woman looked away, picked up the wine glass, and shook it gently.

She looked at Shen Lian and said, "You are getting married soon. Is there anything you want? Since you call me aunt, I am your elder. The younger generation is getting married. As an elder, I must give you something. .”

Shen Lian shook his head: "No need."

"I specifically told everyone I approached that I wouldn't let them bring me anything, and I wouldn't let them follow me."

"As long as everyone can come to my wedding, that's fine."

"It's lively and lively, just have a meal and that's it."

"I don't want anything else."

The old woman was a little confused: "Why?"

"Isn't it human nature to give gifts during a wedding?"

"And this kind of gift is not flattering you, so why should you refuse?"

Shen Lian shook his head and said: "From the time I became the Young Minister of Dali Temple until today, many people have given me trust and helped me, and many of them are ordinary people."

"I hope they can also attend my wedding, but if I have to collect contribution money, then it will be a burden for them to attend my wedding."

"I don't want them to have such a burden appear out of thin air."

"Moreover, once I get married, my status will be improved again. For ordinary officials, they definitely don't want to leave a bad impression on me."

"And once they give me a gift, how much should they give me? Ordinary, they are afraid that I will not be satisfied."

"It's too expensive, and they can't afford the price."

"And they will also compare themselves with other officials for fear of being compared."

"By then, the nature of my wedding will have changed. I don't want my good wedding to become a stage for others to compete and pursue their own interests."
