"Feng'er, do you know all this...all this?" Yao suppressed the discomfort in his heart and asked in a low voice, "It's really hard for you!"
"Mom, you are wrong. It would be better if dad were like this. Otherwise, today's test would not be so easy! But what did you say about the Lan Mansion just now? Which Lan Mansion is it?" Chu Feng suddenly asked.
Remembering something, I quickly asked.
"Oh, Feng'er, I forgot to tell you a good thing. You are about to be transferred. Lan Mansion, Chu Han Lan Mansion, is the Lan Mansion with dozens of merchant ships. His sister you have met is Liang Xiangguo's.
Daughter-in-law, although the Lan family is a businessman, they are extremely wealthy, especially they control all the merchant ships of the Li Kingdom. If you marry her, you will be the eldest mistress of the Lan family, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!" Mrs. Yao quickly said happily.
"Mom, I won't marry you!" Chu Feng immediately darkened her face and whispered.
"Don't marry? Why? I heard that Mr. Lan Mansion is a very talented person and is about the same age as you. Feng'er, this is a good marriage. You are indeed not young anymore. It's rare to meet such a good family. Speaking of which,
You have much better luck than your sister. Look at your sister. Although Murong Leng no longer dares to openly take concubines, your sister feels uncomfortable in her heart. Mother knows that, so you must cherish this opportunity!" Yao Shi!
As soon as I heard this, I immediately became anxious and quickly advised him.
"Mom, no matter how rich the Lan Mansion is, it is not only far away from Chu Han, but also just a businessman. Now the Liang Mansion has declined. Although Liang Jingle is still the crown prince, she is not favored by the prince at all. She is just a child raised in the deep palace.
It’s just a vase, and I also got news that the imperial court has decided to gradually take back the navigation rights in the border seas. Now that the Lan family sees that the Liang family can’t rely on it, they come to the Prince of Chu’s family. He is indeed a businessman, so understanding.
Plan carefully!" Chu Feng said coldly, "I will not agree to this marriage, and I don't think dad will agree immediately either!"
"Why? Your father didn't object just now!" Yao asked after being stunned.
Chu Feng smiled faintly: "Mom, you have been with dad for so many years in vain. Can you really not imagine what kind of wishful thinking dad has?"
Yao shook his head in confusion.
"If I were the father, I would drag the Lan family with me first, and wait until there is news from the Fifth Prince before making a decision!" Chu Feng sneered.
"You mean, your father is still interested in the Fifth Prince? But Chu Yiqing..." Yao was even more surprised.
"Mom, you are really stupid. As I said just now, the Emperor dislikes Chu Yiqing. Although I am a concubine, I am still innocent, and now I am loved by the Queen Mother..." Chu Feng said anxiously.
Yao was startled and suddenly realized: "Feng'er, you are still smart, why didn't you think of it?"
Chu Feng sighed helplessly, turned and left.
After Chu Feng left, Mo Jiang sneaked in, closed the door, hugged Yao tightly from behind, rubbed her twice and said with a soft and lustful smile: "She is indeed my daughter, even better than Chu Zhantian."
My daughter is strong!”
Yao froze, turned around and blocked Mo Jiang's mouth with her hands, and whispered in horror: "What nonsense are you talking about? Feng'er is not your daughter, no!"
"Don't try to lie to me!" Mo Jiang shook off the woman's hand and whispered: "I knew it when Feng'er was five years old. Otherwise, how could I have been protecting her all these years?"
"You...you're talking nonsense, Mo Jiang, I'm warning you, you..." Yao was so shocked that her face turned pale.
"Do you want a blood test? In fact, I have already done it. You forgot that when Feng'er was five years old, she cut her finger while practicing Qigong. I also injured my arm in order to save her. That was the time I saw it with my own eyes.
When our blood can dissolve, I will know that Feng'er is my child!" Mo Jiang held the woman in his arms and laughed softly, "You should be happy. In this way, I
I’ll work even harder for you and Feng’er, won’t I?”
"Mo Jiang, you bastard, you took advantage of others' danger back then, you..." Yao was furious as he struggled.
"Okay, I have helped you a lot over the years, and now you are in charge of the palace. As long as Feng'er can marry the fifth prince, I can be considered worthy of you two!" Mo Jiang saw that Yao was really annoyed.
, he quickly let her go and said.
Yao bit her lip tightly, her eyes full of fear, Feng'er, how could Feng'er be...
"Don't worry, I will do what you asked me to do every day. I believe that soon, Chu Zhantian will..." Mo Jiang's eyes dimmed and he whispered.
Yao hurriedly stepped forward and shook his head, looking around in panic, "You go, you go quickly, don't meet me alone when he is at home, Mo Jiang, this is my limit!"
Mo Jiang was afraid that he would really anger the Yao family, so he had to endure the evil thoughts in his heart, opened the door to a crack, and then quickly left.
"How could Feng'er be..." Yao took a deep breath and closed her eyes, beating her chest in pain.
At this moment, in Prince Huang's palace, Li Huang was wearing a white hunting coat. The fabric looked like silk. It was very expensive at first glance. The cuffs and collar were embroidered with delicate patterns that highlighted his noble status with lavender silk thread. The bottom was lavender.
Straight through silk trousers, he was lying on the soft couch in front of the window, holding a book in his hand, but his thoughts had already flown out of the window.
"Master!" Lei Lei brought the medicine in and said respectfully, "The medicine is ready, drink it quickly!"
Li Huang nodded, put the books together, took the medicine bowl, blew on it, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Master, the residual poison in your body has almost been cleared away. Starting tomorrow, my subordinates will specifically treat your serious illness. This time, it is thanks to Princess Ruimin, otherwise I would not have had such a long time to rest!" Lei Lei continued!
He passed the medicine bowl and smiled.
"How's it going in the court?" Li Huang didn't answer the question, he just raised his eyes and asked.
"Everything was as expected. This time, Chu Zhantian took the opportunity to reap a lot of benefits. The emperor was happy on the surface, but secretly he called the prince into the imperial study and cursed him!" Lei Lei said quickly.
.
"Where's Shangguan Yu?" Li Huang asked again.
"It went very well. Now 40% of the Shangguan family's business is under Shangguan Yu's banner. Shangguan Yunyi is just hanging on, and now there is only an empty shell left!" Lei Lei said happily.
Li Huang nodded, "Yiqing really helped me a lot this time! You asked Erwen to send the things I prepared to Chu Han. Maybe Yiqing can use them!"
Lei Lei quickly responded and said: "Sir, there is news from General Hu. We are almost ready, but we have encountered a little trouble!"
Li Huang turned to look at Lei Lei, his eyes tightened, "But something happened?"
"It's Chu Huan!" Lei Lei lowered his voice again, "For some reason, he was suddenly transferred from the border to Pingliang. General Hu and the others could only stand still and send someone to ask if this Chu Huan is one of ours!"
"Chu Huan..." Li Huang frowned, "I'm afraid even if Chu Zhantian is willing to help me, he won't help me!"
"Then..." Lei Lei's eyes darkened and he made a killing move, "In that case, let him end up like Qin Feng!"
Li Huang slowly shook his head, "Don't act rashly until you understand his intentions. Send someone to monitor him first, and then send someone to inform General Hu to be careful!"
Lei Lei quickly responded and turned around to go out.
Li Huang slowly turned around and continued to lie on the soft couch, thinking about the news brought by Lei Lei just now. Why did Chu Huan go to Pingliang from the border? Could it be that he noticed something strange about Pingliang's body? No matter what, he is still here now
This is not the time to take action!
At this moment, at the gate of Pingliang City, a man with a stern expression looked far away at the large hanging gate dozens of miles away. It was the most natural barrier between Pingliang and the capital, but now it fell to the rebels.
in hands.
"General Chu, General Hu is here!" A soldier came to report.
Chu Huan turned his eyes and saw a fifty-year-old man with a huge stature and a dark face striding towards him. He quickly stepped forward and clasped his fists, half-kneeling, and said, "I will see you, General Hu!"
"Are you General Chu? Get up quickly, get up, why are you so polite!" Hu Tu laughed loudly, stepped forward and pulled Chu Huan up.
Shaking Hu Tu's big hand, Chu Huan smiled and said: "I have admired General Hu's name for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet him. Today I meet him. It's really better to meet him than to be famous!"
Hu Tu laughed loudly: "I am a reckless man, and I don't know how to talk about words. But I have also heard of your reputation. You are the son of the King of Chu, so you have no airs at all!"
Chu Huan lowered his eyes and said humbly: "In the barracks, there are only generals and soldiers, not father and son!"
"Okay, okay, I like your personality very much. If you have time, go to my tent and let's have three drinks!" Hu Tu laughed loudly.
Chu Huan responded quickly.
Hu Tu left the camp and then asked the lieutenant beside him in a low voice, "Is there any news about the return of the prince?"
The deputy general said quickly: "This Chu Huan is not from the prince, but he doesn't seem to be from the prince either. I just want the general to be careful!"
Hu Tu nodded and asked, "Since he is the son of King Chu, why haven't you heard of him before?"
The deputy general smiled and said: "He is a concubine, and I heard that he was born seven months after getting married. The King of Chu doesn't like him very much, so outsiders only know that the Chu Mansion has three thousand gold, and they know nothing about this young master who is a concubine."
rare!"
Hu Tu nodded and couldn't help but laugh: "Every family in the family values boys over girls, but this Chu family actually values their daughter and their only son so little!"
"Perhaps it's because the daughters of the Chu family are all outstanding. Let's not talk about others, just Miss Chu. She is the most beautiful woman in the Li country. If it hadn't been for what happened back then, I'm afraid half of the world would belong to Chu Zhantian!"
The deputy general couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh? How do you say this?" Hu Tu was stunned and asked.
"Back then, the Shangguan family, the head of the five major families, was so powerful that even the emperor was afraid of three points. If the Shangguan family married the Chu Mansion, which was still the Protector of the Country at the time, it could be said to have taken over half of the country!" the deputy general laughed.
He said, "It's just a pity that Miss Chu was humiliated. Shangguan Yunyi was a person who thought too highly of himself. Naturally, he couldn't tolerate such a wife, so he broke off the engagement. Later, Miss Chu almost married the fifth prince. Some people said that this
This is also the emperor’s strategy!”
Hu Tu's eyes darkened and he said coldly: "Based on my general's understanding of that person, he must be able to do such a thing! But now, what about Miss Chu?"
"I heard that after causing a big fuss at the wedding with the Fifth Prince, she was exiled to Chu Han. However, I heard that Miss Chu is now a very important figure in Chu Han. Everyone calls her the Goddess of Agriculture. Last year's
Miss Chu found a way to solve the food shortage and this year's oil shortage. She is a legend!" said the deputy general.
Hu Tu said in surprise: "Is there such a strange woman in this world? Your mention has aroused my interest. If you have a chance in the future, you must meet her!"
The deputy general smiled, and the two of them strode away while talking.
Behind the tent, Chu Huan stepped out, his eyes red with rippling eyes, Qing'er...
Chu Han, although summer has entered, it is still cool in the morning and evening. On this day, Chu Yiqing went to the fields to look at the wheat. When he came back, he immediately arranged for people to harvest the wheat.
"Sister, this year's wheat looks even better than last year. The harvest must be high. Look, how honest these grains are!" Jin Yu picked out a dozen ears of unripe wheat from the field and brought them back and burned them in the bottom of the pot.
In order to give the children teething ceremony, although there is no shortage of children's snacks at home now, Jin Yu still has a complex about these things in the past. She rubbed the still warm wheat ears in her hands, blew away the awns, and sorted them out.
, first put a handful in Ah Jin's mouth, and then ate the rest himself.
"The land has been planted and is very fertile, so the yield is naturally high!" Chu Yiqing also picked up an ear of seeds and said with a smile while picking and eating.
Jin Yu nodded, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "How is Mai Xiang doing in the city? I don't see her coming back yet!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Don't worry, I think Mai Xiang will be more capable than you in the future. Not only will she help me take care of things in the house at such a young age, she will even collect the bills. She is very capable!"
Jin Yu said happily: "Really? This girl is so capable without realizing it!"
While Chu Yiqing was smiling, he was worried about Shangguan Yu's affairs. The oil truck had been gone for half a month, so why was there no news? Could it be that something had gone wrong?
"Miss, Lei Yuan is back!" Yingqian ran in happily and smiled.
Chu Yiqing quickly stood up and took Ying Qian into the flower hall.
Lei Yuan explained this time one by one, and then said: "Miss, this is really a clever move. Shangguan Yunyi and Lan Yi never thought that this was a trick! At this time, Shangguan boss must have brought someone to find Shangguan Yunyi.
The theory is here, I’m afraid Shangguan Yunyi won’t be able to endure it this time!”
Chu Yiqing nodded with satisfaction and said: "This time it is difficult for Boss Shangguan to sacrifice so many brothers!"
"If it's time to break it, break it off. Boss Shangguan and Miss Shangguan are both people who do great things!" Lei Yuan sighed.
Chu Yiqing pondered for a moment and then said: "Continue to pay attention to the news in the capital. If there is any news, let me know as soon as possible!"
Lei Yuan nodded quickly.
At this moment, Yingqian came in and said: "Miss, Miss Maixiang just sent someone to say that the imperial envoy sent by the emperor to announce the decree has arrived in the town. Please go back as soon as possible! Miss also said that the imperial envoy and the lady know each other, please tell me their surnames
Damn it, the lady will definitely know it!"
Chu Yiqing was startled, could it be a hundred yuan increase? He immediately said: "Okay, now prepare your things and go back!"
Yingqian nodded quickly.
Jin Yu heard that Chu Yiqing was anxious to leave, so he quickly entered the room and asked, "But what happened?"
Chu Yiqing packed A Bao's things and said with a smile: "It's okay, there are two guests coming from the capital. Anyway, I have you and Brother Zhao at home, so I'm relieved. It's just that you are getting heavier and heavier, so you can't be tired."
, just wander around and take a look. If you have anything to do, let Brother Zhao do it. Just take this opportunity to let Brother Zhao share more for you! Remember, your body is important. Don’t panic when something happens.
I'm not far from the town, I'll be back when I'm done!"
Jin Yu felt relieved when he heard this, and while helping to clean up, he said: "It doesn't matter if something happens, you can rest assured here, but it's just a few thousand acres of wheat. Brother Zhao and I can handle it!"
Chu Yiqing quickly stopped and said: "Okay, stop being busy, sit down and rest, and be sure to remember to take care of yourself!"
Jin Yu could only sit down with a smile, couldn't help but touch her belly and said with a smile: "Sister, I want to have another daughter this time. Two daughters and two sons are really a beautiful thing!"
Chu Yiqing nodded and said with a smile: "Whether it's a daughter or a son, it's always good to have a prosperous family!"
Jin Yu smiled and touched his belly.
As soon as she stepped into the Chu Mansion, Mrs. Bai came up to her and said with a smile: "Miss Chu, it's been a long time!"
When Chu Yiqing saw that it was indeed Baiyuan Zeng and his wife, he quickly smiled, asked them to sit down and asked, "Why do you have time to come here? But what's the matter?"
Mrs. Bai glanced at Bai Yuanzeng and said, "Just say it!"
Bai Yuanzeng looked at the maids and servants in the hall.
Chu Yiqing motioned to Yingqian and the others to go down first, and then asked, "Did something important happen?"
Bai Yuanzeng said quickly: "Miss Chu, I was actually appointed to be the prefect of Chu Han. Unexpectedly, I fell ill on the road and was delayed for a few days. I just arrived here the day before yesterday and took office yesterday. I came here specifically to see Chu
Girl, say hello to Miss Chu!"
"Being the prefect?" Chu Yiqing heard this and immediately smiled and said: "This is great. I am worried that there is no one I can rely on in the government. It is the right time for Master Bai to come here now!"
Bai Yuanzeng smiled awkwardly, seemingly hesitant to speak.
"Master Bai, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it!" Chu Yiqing asked with a smile.
"That's it. This time, I not only brought the gifts from the emperor, but also the emperor's imperial edict. The emperor wanted the girl to hand over the methods of growing rapeseed and extracting oil to the court. You see..."
Baiyuan Zeng said awkwardly.
Chu Yiqing smiled coldly: "So that's it, Master Bai, since it's the emperor's imperial edict, don't be embarrassed. This method is simple. I just write it down and you can submit it to me. It's not the first time the emperor has done this kind of thing."
, I will regard the reward money as the money used to buy out my method!"
Bai Yuanzeng immediately said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Miss Chu!"
Chu Yiqing waved his hand and said: "Okay, Sir Bai, there is no need to be so polite. After all, we still have the friendship in Lucheng. Sir Bai has come to Chu Han as a parent official, so he has to take a lot of care of our Chu Mansion!"
Mrs. Bai hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Look what Miss Chu said, we take Miss Chu's kindness to us very seriously, and we are not people who forget our roots!"
Bai Yuanzeng nodded in agreement.
Next, although it was just a formality, he still had to leave. He ordered people to bring in the incense burner, lit incense, asked for a hundred yuan, and read the imperial edict. Chu Yiqing knelt down to receive the imperial edict, and then asked people to move the things in.
Instruct the kitchen to prepare dinner for dinner.
"Mrs. Bai, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I will stay here today and don't go back to the government office. Let's have a good chat!" Chu Yiqing said cordially, holding Mrs. Bai's hand.
Madam Bai turned her eyes to Bai Yuanzeng and nodded.
Yingqian is a careful person. She still remembers that Mrs. Bai likes to eat meat, so she specially made sweet and sour pork ribs, vanilla chicken wings, dry pot bacon with mushrooms and spicy crayfish. Mrs. Bai was very satisfied with the meal.
"Miss Chu, you have fresh food here all year round. Let's talk about this pot. It tastes really good when you cook it and eat it at the same time!" Mrs. Bai praised the dry pot of bacon and mushrooms.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Mrs. Bai, don't be offended. This is a newly added dish in the world. It's called dry pot. Although it looks a bit vulgar, it tastes good. I think Mrs. Bai will like it, so there is no more."
think!"
"Miss Chu, we have been together for so many days, so don't say these kind words anymore. It's the same thing. Without you, my family would not be where we are today. We might go back to the countryside to farm now! Miss Chu, we understand
People don't tell secrets. In fact, my elders were able to go to Chu Han because of the commission from the prince. I wanted to find a solution to the oil shortage from Miss Chu. Who knows how many days it was delayed because of my illness.
Chu Han, this oil shortage has been solved by Miss Chu! Originally, I felt sorry for you, as if I wanted to betray you. Now that the matter has been resolved, my family and I can breathe a sigh of relief. From now on, we will all
In Chu Han, we have to keep watch and help each other from now on!" Mrs. Bai couldn't hold back her words. After a few words, she gave Chu Yiqing the truth.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Master Bai has become Chu Han's parent official. I will have Master Bai to take care of me from now on. Madam Bai is so polite to say these words!"
Mrs. Bai sighed and said: "Miss Chu, you don't know. It's not easy to be an official in the imperial court. Now that the fifth prince's old illness has recurred, and the prince has gradually taken over the power, my master has no choice but to obey his arrangements. Miss Chu, don't leave."
It’s better to blame!”
Chu Yiqing shook his head and said: "Of course I understand the hardships involved. Madam Bai, at least you can give me a true answer. This is enough. If anything happens in the future, I hope Madam Bai will send someone to inform me secretly."
That’s it!”
At this moment, Mrs. Bai's heart was all relieved, and she felt much more relaxed. The two of them chatted some more. They had a very late meal, and then went back to the room to rest.
In the room, Chu Yiqing saw A Bao asleep, so he sat under the dressing mirror and slowly took off the hairpin on his head, and asked Ying Qian behind him: "Have the arrangements been made at Madam Bai's place?"
"Everything has been arranged, don't worry, Miss!" Yingqian smiled and stepped forward to help.
Chu Yiqing nodded and said with a smile: "I feel relieved that Master Bai is here in Chu Han. It will be more beneficial to us in the future!"
"But Miss, didn't Madam Bai say that the prince sent them here, could they..." Ying Qian said worriedly.
"Don't worry, the fifth prince told me last time that if he directly sent a hundred yuan to Chu Han, the prince would definitely interfere with it. After all, the former prefect was the prince's man, and he deliberately alienated Bai Yuanzeng so that the prince could
I trust him. Now that Bai Yuanzeng and his wife have passed my test, I feel relieved. From now on, things will be much smoother in Chu Han!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile.
"Miss, you have never mentioned this idea to this slave!" Yingqian couldn't help but said happily.
"Last time in Lucheng, I took over the power of Hua Mansion. After seeing Mr. Hua's arrangements for the past thirty years, I realized that in the future I will also place people in various yamen in Chu Han. As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to do things. This is it.
I mean!" Chu Yiqing untied his hair and combed it while smiling, "Okay, Lei Yuan has just come back, you two are better than newlyweds, so don't bother with me, just let the girl Yingrun stay on duty tonight!
"
Yingqian said shyly: "Miss, you are making fun of me again!" Although she said this, she felt sweet in her heart.
After driving Yingqian away, Chu Yiqing lay down next to A Bao. Looking at that face, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart. After all, he was Li Huang's child. He really imagined Li Huang more and more.
Even this sleeping appearance... Chu Yiqing couldn't help but blush. He remembered what he promised Li Huang that day. Now that he was sick in the house, could he be thinking about something again? And last time, he seemed to have something in his words.
, but it's a pity that he left before he had time to ask... Chu Yiqing sat up suddenly, put on his clothes and got out of bed, walked out the door and headed straight to the backyard. He stood outside the door of Lei Yuan and Ying Qian, looking at
Looking at the extinguished candle, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Look at me being anxious, I might as well ask Lei Yuan tomorrow!"
Chu Yiqing was about to turn around when she suddenly heard Ying Qian's low voice in the room. She wanted to leave immediately, but as soon as she heard the word "ye", she couldn't help but stop.
In the dark room, Yingqian lay contentedly under Lei Yuan, with black hair scattered on the man's chest, and asked in a low voice: "Do you really want to marry Princess Ruimin?"
Lei Yuan gently stroked the woman's smooth arm and whispered: "The emperor has decreed that the marriage will be granted after three months when I am well. I will definitely have other ways to stop it by then!"
"Then, the emperor, he will think of our lady when something happens, and treat her like this after the matter is resolved. How heartless and unjust!" Ying Qian couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.
Lei Yuan was silent for a while, just turned over and lay on the kang, sighing faintly.
Chu Yiqing stood not far away and listened carefully, Princess Ruimin? Which country is she from? No wonder Li Huang's words were vague last time. It turned out to be like this... Chu Yiqing's heart couldn't help but sink.
But in the end, I forced myself to calm down and planned to wait until dawn tomorrow to ask Lei Yuan for clarification.
Early the next morning, Chu Yiqing, who had not slept well all night, called Lei Yuan to the flower hall and asked straight to the point: "Did I see your father when I went to the capital this time? Is he okay?"
Lei Yuan hurriedly said: "My subordinate was anxious to come back and give a message to the lady, so he did not go to my place!"
Chu Yiqing narrowed his eyes coldly, stared at Lei Yuan and asked, "Really? Lei Yuan, are you hiding something from me?"
Lei Yuan quickly raised his eyes and glanced at Yingqian. Yingqian shook her head quickly, and he knelt down in front of Chu Yiqing and said, "I don't know what the lady is asking about. Please tell me clearly!"
Chu Yiqing could clearly see the interaction between Lei Yuan and Yingqian's eyes. She felt even more annoyed and wanted to lose her temper, but in the end she took a deep breath, calmed down and asked
: "Lei Yuan, do you know Princess Ruimin?"
Lei Yuan's body froze obviously. Chu Yiqing's expression became darker and darker.
"Miss, subordinate..." Lei Yuan was about to speak evasively, but was interrupted by Chu Yiqing: "Lei Yuan, if you still think of me as your master and your lady, don't lie to me!
"
Lei Yuan half-knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and for a long time, he whispered: "The emperor intended to marry Princess Ruimin to me, but I was already thinking of ways to delay it. I pretended to be sick and hid in the mansion. That's why
reason!"
"Princess Ruimin, is that the lady who came to the house to cause trouble last time?" Chu Yiqing suddenly asked in a deep voice.
Lei Yuan stiffened again and nodded.
"That young lady is very arrogant. She doesn't think she's the daughter of an ordinary family at first sight, but she didn't expect that she is actually a princess. It's really hard for her to come after me for your father!" Chu Yiqing curled her lips lightly,
He stood up and said to Yingqian: "I remember today is the day when they come back on the 15th. Look, it's almost time. Let's go for a walk on the pier!"
Yingqian kept her head down and dared not speak. Now seeing Chu Yiqing suddenly say this, she quickly stepped forward and said: "Miss, don't worry, I will not let you down. I will not marry that princess. You
You have to believe me..."
Chu Yiqing waved his hand, signaling her not to continue, and said with a smile: "Who he marries is his wife. He has his own ideas. I don't need to worry about it. Yingqian, I will forgive you this time. If I know about it next time,
If you don’t report it…”
Yingqian hurriedly knelt down and said: "Miss, I don't dare to do it anymore, it's just that I..."
"Okay, stop talking and come to the dock with me!" Chu Yiqing interrupted her, went to say hello to Concubine Qing, and then left with Yingqian.
Lei Yuan was kneeling there with one leg. Chu Yiqing didn't let him get up, and he didn't dare to get up either, so he had to continue kneeling.
Along the way, Yingqian didn't dare to look at Chu Yiqing's face, but just sat aside politely. When she arrived at the pier, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Chu Yiqing talking to shopkeeper Li with a normal expression.
When the merchant ship came back, Lan Yi decided on the date of his next voyage. But this time, Lan Yi used seven ships and the remaining three ships were empty. As a result, Chu Yiqing was a little troubled by the three empty ships.
.
In Lan Mansion, Lan Yi was lying on the soft couch exhausted physically and mentally. Before he could take a breath, Master Lan and Mrs. Lan came in with joy on their faces and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, you're back. You will follow your father tomorrow."
Capital City, go and propose marriage to King Chu’s third daughter. You are not young anymore. It’s time to start a family. Your father and I are also anxious to have grandchildren!"
Lan opened her eyes and her eyes darkened: "Who said I want to get married?"
Mr. Lan smiled and said: "You are not young anymore. If you don't get married, will you always be like this? Previously, my father sent someone to find out what the Chu Mansion wanted, and it seemed promising. This time you go in person. With your talents, then
King Chu will definitely agree!"
Lan Yi did not directly object this time, but asked: "Dad is talking about the third lady in King Chu Zhantian's mansion?"
"Yes, when dad was in the capital, he asked your uncle Hou to inquire. Now there is such a young lady in the palace of King Chu who has not left the cabinet. Many princes and grandsons are looking at her with eager eyes. Although she is a commoner, she is an official. We
He's a businessman, so he's a good match!" Mr. Lan said with a smile while stroking the tiger's head.
Lan Yi's eyes darkened: "It's really a good match!"
Mrs. Lan said happily: "So you agree?"
Lan Yiyi nodded: "Since we are well matched, I will naturally not object, but I just came back and there are still many things to deal with. In a few days, I will go to the capital to propose marriage in person!"
When Mr. Lan and his wife saw Lan Yi agreeing so happily, they were naturally filled with joy and immediately promised Lan to go to the capital to propose marriage in ten days.
After Master Lan and his wife left, Lan Ji couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Master, do you really want to marry that Miss Chu San?"
Lan Yi lazily spread his hands and said, "Anyway, the Lan Yi she married is not the prince, so what does it matter?"
"But..." Lan Ji frowned. This is a major matter of marriage, how could it be such a trivial matter?
"Lan Ji, this time the business has dropped by another 30%. Do you know the reason?" Lan Yi suddenly said with a darkening of his eyes.
Lan Ji quickly said: "Shopkeeper Li has already asked Boss Yu and Boss Hai, and they both said that business has been difficult in the past six months, so they will not purchase goods for the time being!"
Lan Yi shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Although Jiang Yun didn't say anything, Li Huang might have suspected my identity for a long time. Maybe he was behind it!"
"My subordinates will investigate further!" Lan Ji said quickly.
"Go and ask Boss Mu. Chu Yiqing has received some big orders recently. If they want the goods, they have to come from Luo State. They may leave us and contact Chu Yiqing alone!" Lan Yi said again.
Lan Ji nodded, but still said uneasily: "Master, your marriage..."
"Don't worry about this matter, I have my own opinion!" Lan Yi whispered.
Lan Ji could only nod.
Just when Chu Yiqing was worried that the merchant ships would not be fully loaded, Zhu Erwen suddenly came from the capital and brought in two big customers.
"Miss Chu, this is Boss Yu, who specializes in the silk business. This is Boss Hai, who specializes in the jewelry business. Both of them are big businessmen in the capital. They came this time to discuss business with Miss Chu.
Business!" Zhu Erwen introduced with a smile.
When Chu Yiqing heard about the big merchants coming from the capital, he naturally did not dare to neglect them and hurriedly welcomed them into the hall.
Boss Yu was in his fifties, slightly fatter, always smiling, and looked like a model of being friendly and making money. After looking at Chu Yiqing, he smiled and said: "I have admired Miss Chu for a long time, and I am really honored to meet you today!"
Boss Hai also smiled and said: "Miss Chu's name is well-known in the capital, especially since she just solved the oil shortage for the emperor. Although Miss Chu is a woman, she is not inferior to men!"
Chu Yiqing replied politely. When she heard that the two bosses wanted to purchase goods from Luo Country, they even knew exactly what street Luo Country's shop was on. Her ship was only responsible for transporting things.
He was able to earn a large commission when he came back. He immediately felt strange. While the two were drinking tea, he called Zhu Erwen to the side hall and asked carefully: "Did your father introduce these two customers? They
Have you purchased goods from Lan Mansion before?"
Zhu Erwen said with a smile: "Miss Chu is really smart. She saw it right away. These two were indeed big customers of Lan Mansion before, but now they will no longer buy from Lan Mansion. I said there will be more in the future."
Many customers come to see Miss Chu!"
Chu Yiqing frowned and said: "Now that the Lan Mansion is so powerful, I am not confident enough to compete with him for business. It is really not safe to do so!"
Zhu Erwen smiled and said: "Don't worry, Miss Chu. This has been arranged by me a long time ago. Not only the goods of these two bosses, but also the goods of the five major families, will also come from Miss Chu in the future. Lan Mansion dare not
What’s the objection?”
Chu Yiqing was still a little worried, and hesitated: "Can you let me wait a little longer? My people are not stable yet, I'm afraid..."
"Miss Chu, I can't wait any longer!" Zhu Erwen whispered with a solemn expression, "If I hadn't been forced to do so, I wouldn't have been so anxious to arrange these two clients for Miss Chu. Now I have confirmed that Lan Yi, the master of the Lan Mansion, is
Prince Luo, I will take back this navigation right sooner or later! It is impossible for me to allow Lan Yi to continue!"
Chu Yiqing frowned, feeling that Li Huang was indeed a little more eager this time. She had only taken over the merchant ship for two months now, and they were not able to sail alone on the fifteenth day. If Lan Yi really turned his back and took the boatman back, then...
"If you are young, please tell Miss Chu that the merchant ship built by Lan Yi in Luo Country will be completed next month. By then, the merchant ship of Miss Chu will become a decoration!" Zhu Erwen lowered his voice and said.
Chu Yiqing was even more frightened. No wonder Li Huang took action in advance. It turned out to be like this. If so, then she had to take action!
"Okay, I'll take this business!" Chu Yiqing whispered.
Zhu Erwen said happily: "That's great, Miss Chu!"
Chu Yiqing said solemnly: "This time I will personally follow you out to sea!"
