Princess Yangping temporarily lived in Xizhou in the home of a Sanguan named Jiang, a senior official in Xizhou.
The post of governor of Xizhou was not vacant, so the sergeant-general was a substitute for an idle official who received a generous salary for nothing.
Xizhou is close to Hejing, the imperial capital of Li Qian, and there will never be a shortage of people for the position of governor. Therefore, Xizhou's sergeant-general is destined to be a leisurely man who only gets a high salary and does nothing.
The emperor is not stupid and will not support idle people for nothing, so this position is usually awarded to "people who work hard".
This casual official with the surname Jiang was named Jiang Mengxing, and his family was extremely wealthy. When the emperor came to Hejing, he diligently offered treasures and took the initiative to offer half of the Jiang family's industry. Therefore, he was granted an official position by Li Ju and was parachuted directly.
Princess Yangping came to Xizhou on the fourth day of February and has been staying at the Jiang family for the past few days.
Now when she returns to the Pingyu Garden specially prepared for her by the Jiang family, Princess Yangping is still haunted.
Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi were reluctant to speak out and accompanied them quietly.
However, they saw the special Biluochun served by the maid, being directly picked up and drank by Princess Yangping.
The scalding tea burned her mouth, and when she woke up, Princess Yangping threw her to the ground: "Seeking death!"
The top-quality Qingxiao floating smoke porcelain cup was shattered on the ground. The maid was so frightened that she immediately fell to her knees and said, "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die!"
"If you know you deserve to die, then die!" Princess Yangping shouted violently, "Come here, drag me down and kill me with a stick!"
Li Yishu said hurriedly: "Princess, it's better not to do it!"
"My mouth is burned!" Princess Yangping glared at her.
The Jiang family's servants had come in from outside, dragging the maid who was completely stupid and not even daring to beg for mercy on the ground, and walked out.
"Princess!" Li Yishu watched the maid being dragged away and looked back at Yang Ping, "Just spare her. Shang is only sixteen or seventeen years old. How young. Moreover, he is the maid of the Jiang family."
Yu Ziqi pursed her pale lips and didn't dare to say a word.
"Sixteen or seventeen years old," Princess Yangping sneered, "Isn't Ah Li also sixteen or seventeen years old? I hate people who are sixteen or seventeen years old the most. I hate women younger than me!"
Li Yishu raised his eyebrows and looked out the door again. The maid could no longer be seen.
Ever since she learned about Li's cavalry battle in eastern Huazhou two days ago, Princess Yangping became more and more violent, and she was not seen smiling for several days.
Li Yishu didn't know much about the specifics. She didn't dare to ask more. She just heard Princess Yangping sneer in a weird voice: "What is a narrow victory? It deserves to be called a narrow victory if both sides suffer losses."
Li's cavalry was unexpectedly defeated.
Li Yishu was in disbelief and did not dare to say anything.
The maid was completely dragged away, her fate can be imagined.
The atmosphere in the room was depressing for a while, until other maids and servants came in to clear away the tea cups on the floor.
Hearing the crisp sound of the tea cup's porcelain pieces clashing, I regained some of the taste of the human world.
Not long after the maids and servants who were packing their things left, a man in his early thirties hurried over, raised his hand outside the door, and called respectfully: "Princess."
"Come in." Yang Ping said.
"Princess," the man stepped in, bowed again, and said, "Those tea merchants refused, so I looked for a few tea merchants, but they all closed their doors and thanked the guests. I went to their mansion, handed over the greeting card, and said that I am the princess. You said it, but they are still stubborn and refuse to open the door."
Yang Ping looked at him coldly, he didn't lose his temper this time, he just patted the palm and forearm of his right hand lightly on the table.
"There's no reply from the silk merchant yet," the man continued.
At the end of last year, Yang Ping asked Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi to sell fifteen shops and raise money separately.
But for the fifteen shops, the prices offered by the buyers were not high. She only gave Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi five days. Five days later, Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi came to her with a brochure and asked her if they could make a move.
Hinata immediately tore the booklet into pieces.
She is a dignified princess, and she is not so depressed that she sells her shop at a low price!
His subordinates were all useless, so Yang Ping took action himself.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, she came out of the palace and first walked around Hejing. She sold out all fifteen shops at a high price.
We have always known that the power in the hands of the royal family is supreme, but after turning power into real money, it feels really wonderful, and it makes it difficult to be content with the status quo.
So, Yang Ping took over several shops at very low prices, and then sold them to several wealthy businessmen at high prices. The difference in price allowed her to make a fortune.
In this way, it should be a happy month of spring, but after arriving in Xizhou Mansion, she immediately started to have troubles.
Big merchants are fine.
In order to protect their family business, big merchants always treated her with respect.
It is difficult to deal with small merchants.
Currently, out of the thirty shops that Yang Ping had her eye on, only eight have been taken away by her and sold to other wealthy businessmen.
The rest of them were even rejected by her.
"What do you think?" Yang Ping looked at Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi standing aside.
Yu Ziqi looked timidly and did not dare to say anything.
Li Yishu thought for a while and said: "Tea, silk and satin are mostly belongings to the nobles. These merchants can expand their business and often interact with nobles, nobles and high-ranking officials. The princess is naturally not afraid of these people, but she is afraid that they will cause harm behind her back. .”
"In your opinion, what do you mean?"
"We left Xizhou Prefecture and went to Mingtai County," Li Yishu said. "Mingtai County is mostly made up of farmers. We started from the farmers' end and were able to secure at least ten shops to be supplied. From then on, we were the source. Lord."
Yang Ping found the words "Lord of the Source" to be extremely beautiful.
Her eyes brightened and she looked at Li Yishu: "You are right, silk is inseparable from sericulture. If we eat these farmers, who dares to show mercy to me again?"
"Princess!" came a familiar voice from outside.
When Yang Ping heard this voice, he was still in a good mood, but he was immediately poured cold water on him.
She looked outside the door and saw Aunt Yujing, who had been with Concubine Mu for the longest time.
In addition to Aunt Yujing, the two maids Princess Yangping left behind in the palace, Jingshu and Fengqin, were also there.
Yang Zhi's face turned cold and he looked to the side.
Li Yishu whispered: "I think there is something going on in the palace, so I'll call them in."
"I don't know what's going on." Yang Ping said coldly.
Li's cavalry is regarded as an important weapon of the royal family. If it fails, who will be slapped in the face? It's the royal family, it's the emperor.
At this moment, my father must be angry in the palace.
When my father was angry, he would either remain silent and cold, not saying a word, or he would suddenly become violent and kill and behead him.
No matter what happens, Yangping doesn't want to go back.
She still remembers her father's look at the Yuanhe Sect, that cold, cruel, vicious, and cursed look.
"Princess." Aunt Yujing called again.
"It's so annoying!" Princess Yangping yelled angrily.
"Princess, Concubine Mu calls you back to the palace."
Yang Ping stood up, kicked off the crescent stool he was sitting on, and walked towards the inner hall.
Jingshu and Fengqin looked at Aunt Yujing with heavy hearts.
When they came just now, they saw the maid being beaten.
The maid's brother was begging for mercy, and the man holding the stick said that it was the princess who ordered the stick to kill him, and he would not stop until he was beaten to death.
They didn't dare to look more and passed by in a hurry.
This is not the first time. There are no less than ten maids in Shu Yu Palace who have been killed with a stick.
The cheerful and lively princess at the beginning has long since changed drastically.
