Tang Lingde had read poetry and books for several years, and he also liked arty poetry.
Even though he had never seen Wang Zhen's handwriting, after reading the lyrics, he concluded that it was impossible for anyone in Huaiyuan to forge such skillful handwriting.
"Bring Liu Qiong'er's body deed." Tang Lingde said in a deep voice to the henchman in charge of the account.
"Now, let Liu Qiong'er redeem herself, but her red pill has been called..." Grandma Wang asked incredulously.
Not only is Liu Qiong'er in her prime, but more importantly, she is now the brand established by Yuehonglou.
And even in another two or three years, she will not be able to continue the routine of selling her art without selling her body. By then, if she is allowed to open the door to receive customers, the price of the red pill will be astonishingly high, not to mention that it will attract more people in the future.
The fragrance of Lang Bee and Butterfly.
If such a money tree really ran away like this, how much money would Yuehonglou lose?
Grandma Wang thought to herself that she was already in her fifties, and when she met someone with special hobbies, she would have to fight in person. Is it natural to let Liu Qiong'er go now?
"What nonsense!" Tang Lingde glared at Grandma Wang angrily.
He didn't want to let her go, but the facts were there. This time it was Wang Zhen who wanted someone, and the Tang family insisted on keeping Liu Qiong'er. How much price were they prepared to pay?
Wang Zhen was demoted to Tangzhou and had no official position, but that was also a phoenix with Mao in his hands!
Seeing that Tang Lingde had no intention of testing the authenticity of the silver ingot, Liu Qiong'er held the body deed in her slightly sweaty hands, and her heart dropped a little.

When the maids and servants who had served them helped pack the items such as music, chess, music, music, paper, inkstones, etc., and put them on the hired carriage, Tang Lingde had already left in frustration, leaving Grandma Wang to finish here.
Liu Qiong'er went out of the courtyard and got into the carriage. She saw the guard who had been kicked into the courtyard by Xu Huai. At this time, he was still sitting in the corner with his head hanging down and he hadn't recovered yet.
"How cruel was your kick just now? You really wanted to kick someone to death. How will it end?" Liu Qiong'er complained in a low voice after Xu Huai opened the car window and got in.
"I didn't hold back my strength, and the man was not prepared for my kick. His internal organs should be broken. Whether he can survive it or not depends on his life!" Xu Huai said indifferently.
"Ah?" It was dark in the carriage, and Liu Qiong'er could only see the vague outline of Xu Huai, and asked in horror, "Are you crazy? Will the Tang family suffer this loss?"
"Tang Lingde has let you go, what's there to lose? Do you think your lives are really important in their eyes?" Xu Huai said, "These thugs raised by Yuehong Mansion are like wolves and tigers, which one is the best?
You are easy to get along with. How can I shock them if I can't deal with one of them ruthlessly? Of course, in their eyes, I am just a fool. If I hurt someone, it was you and Mr. Wang who hired the murderer to hurt them.
.They dare not spill blood on Yue Honglou today, but they can still go to the state and county government offices to sue you for hiring a murderer to hurt someone? Where there is a grievance, there is a debtor, and you are the creditor. I am a knife in your hand."
Most of Yue Honglou's people are those who work for the tiger. Xu Huai doesn't even think that Liu Qiong'er is a kind person. What he needs to weigh before taking action is the limit that Yue Honglou and the Tang family can bear, not whether to show mercy or not.
"you……"
A chill ran down Liu Qiong'er's spine after her intuition, and she subconsciously shrank into the corner of the carriage, as if there was a biting snake lying in front of her. If she was not careful, she would be swallowed clean by him, including the flesh and bones.
, but she had to admit in her heart that if Xu Huai had not put on a murderous posture today, Tang Lingde would not have been able to surrender so quickly with only Wang Zhen's support.
"We've arrived at the ferry. The ferry is shaking badly. It would be safer for you, Miss Liu, to get off the carriage and walk on to the boat." The hired coachman said outside.
We can only stay in the post house temporarily tonight, so we have to cross the river to go to the military camp.
Liu Qiong'er and Xu Huai got off the carriage first, waiting for the carriage containing soft objects to get on the ferry first, and then they followed.
"What are we going to do next?" Liu Qiong'er couldn't help but ask after entering the military camp.
"I'm just an idiot running errands," Xu Huai said with a laugh. "You must ask my opinion. I think you have to first thank Mr. Wang for helping me today."
Huaiyuan Town is neither too small nor too big. When they walked into the military stronghold, the soldiers guarding the gate of the stronghold all looked over with winking eyes. Xu Huai knew that this matter had spread in the military stronghold.
No matter what, Xu Huai had to pin this matter on Wang Zhen's head first before talking about anything else.
Only in the eyes of many people in Huaiyuan Town can it be confirmed that Liu Qiong'er is a person of royal ancestry, and then it will be convenient for him to act.
"Is all this really arranged by Mr. Wang?"
Tang Lingde did not doubt anything else, but Liu Qiong'er saw all Xu Huai's performance in the past two days and blinded her. She would not believe that Xu Huai was completely sent by Wang Zhen or anyone else.
"Didn't I tell you earlier? Everyone just gets what they need." Xu Huai said.
Although Xu Huai was involved in the whole incident because of the memory that inexplicably flashed in his mind, the objective facts at this time prevented him from staying out of the matter. His own position was not completely consistent with that of Lu Xiong, who was bent on protecting Wang Zhen's ancestors and grandchildren.
Same.

Xu Wujiang took people to Hutouling to find out the situation, but he would not tell Su Di in detail. However, Su Di was always worried. She bumped into Xu Huai and Liu Qiong'er coming to see Wang Zhen outside the yard, and she had no idea.
Ask what happened in Yuehong Mansion tonight.
"Madam of the Su family." Liu Qiong'er saluted.
"Miss Liu is here to see Mr. Wang." Su Di returned the greeting, glanced at the yard here, and then went back.
Wang Xuan was standing in the yard when she saw Xu Huai and Liu Qiong'er coming in. She looked at Liu Qiong'er curiously, but raised her chin slightly, fearing that Liu Qiong'er wouldn't know the contempt and disdain in her heart.
When Liu Qiong'er was about to salute, she snorted and turned around to enter the house.
"This is Xuan'er, the granddaughter of Mr. Wang," Xu Huai said.
Liu Qiong'er nodded and said that Wang Zhen was demoted to Tangzhou and lived in Huaiyuan. During this period, the eight generations of Wang Zhen's ancestors were spread in Yuehong Mansion. Of course she knew that Wang Zhen's granddaughter Wang Xuan was a rare little girl.
Beauty.
It was a slightly cold spring night. Lu Xiong opened the door of the east wing without making a sound, signaling Xu Huai and Liu Qiong'er to go in and talk.
Wang Chen stood in front of the writing desk, writing with the help of a weak lamp.
Liu Qiong'er bowed and bowed.
Wang Xun turned back to look at her, and motioned to the wet nurse to make tea. After finishing writing a piece of text, he said: "This is the couplet that Cheng Yicheng asked for. I just got interested in writing it to him today - The old man was killed by a poisonous snake."
Staring, restrained, and had to keep to oneself, and this poisonous snake is not only in the nest at Hutou Ridge, but there are also many eyes in Bianjing City watching the old man's every move in Tangzhou, all waiting for an honest and fair copy of the old man."
Liu Qiong'er hadn't figured out everything yet, so she couldn't hear Wang Zhen's words and looked at Xu Huai in astonishment.
Of course Xu Huai knew what Wang Zhen was talking about.
In addition to Cai Zheng sending assassins to take Wang Zhen's life, the fact that Wang Zhen will fall into trouble in Tangzhou, even if he does not appear to be so "secure", can really determine Wang Zhen's fate, and the fate of the vast majority of Dai Viet's subjects.
Whether that person will deal with Wang Zhen more severely is something that no one can predict.
Wang Zhen doesn't mind using his name to do things, but he must be careful to avoid self-defeating.
"Miss Liu just came out of Yuehong Tower, and there is no one around her. She hired me to run errands, but it has nothing to do with you, Mr. Wang." Xu Huai said.
Xu Huai originally thought of claiming that Wang Zhen hired him to take care of Liu Qiong'er. In addition to attracting the assassin's attention, he could also use Wang Zhen's name to do things conveniently.
However, Wang Zhen's concerns are justified, and we cannot leave such an obvious clue for Wang Zhen's political opponents to seize.
Of course, if he puts it another way now, the effect may be weaker, but in the eyes of the Tang family and the assassins, he will still be regarded as the person sent by Wang Zhen, and that is enough.
Wang Zhen nodded, and Xu Huai said goodbye to Liu Qiong'er and left. He saw Su Di standing at the entrance of the courtyard, looking towards the east gate of the military camp.
Xu Huai walked over and said to her: "Uncle Seventeen and the others will not be back tonight - by the way, Miss Liu has just redeemed herself from Yuehong Mansion, and there is no one around to send her, so she wants to hire me to help her for a while!"
Dai Viet prohibited the common people from keeping slaves and abolished the slave trade. There was no death contract for servants hired by wealthy families.
Although slaves can be resold with live contracts, they can theoretically be redeemed if they save enough money. This was the case with Liu Qiong'er's redemption from Yuehong Mansion.
In addition, there are also more general employment relationships.
No matter what, it was impossible for Su Di and Xu Wujiang to sell Xu Huai to Liu Qiong'er as a slave even if they were beaten to death.
No matter what happens, Xu Wufu, the head of the Xu family, may intervene.
After all, Xu Huai and the Xu family have not yet come out of the fifth service. According to Xiaozong's method, he is still a direct descendant.
If he sells himself into slavery, what dignity will the Xu family have in Tongbai Mountain?
Even if you are a blood-related branch of the fifth server, if you really can't survive, you can still vassal your family. How can you just sell yourself to another clan?
Of course, even if it is a general employment relationship, considering Liu Qiong'er's background, Su Di can't help but worry about how her reputation will spread. How will she help Xu Huai find a wife in the future?
Su Di looked toward the yard next door dissatisfied.
Of course she believed that this was Wang Zhen's idea, and wanted to talk about it. After hesitating for a while, she said: "We have to wait until your seventeenth uncle comes back to make up his mind on this matter; besides, although you have not yet been assigned to the Inspection Department,
But your Seventeenth Uncle has saved two years of military pay for you, and is planning to use it when you marry a wife, and Mr. Deng will also have to explain it to you."
Su Di still didn't want Xu Huai to have anything to do with Liu Qiong'er. No matter how Wang Zhen was the former censor Zhongcheng, she didn't want Wang Zhen to use Xu Huai as a spearman. Otherwise, how could he be worthy of Xu Huai's dead parents?
Xu Huai knew that Di Niang was sincerely concerned about him, but now that the assassins believed that his Seventeenth Uncle and the Xu clan members who had returned from the Jingsheng Army were involved, how could he still act with Xu Huai in mind?
These things cannot be discussed in detail, and Xu Huai did not want to argue with Su Di, so he said perfunctorily: "Then I will help Miss Liu for two days first, and we will discuss other matters when Uncle Seventeen comes back."
