Chapter 155: Full of ideals, skinny reality, overthinking He Meizi
"Every merit must be rewarded. They all have it. You are indispensable." Luo Jingyao said firmly with her hands behind her back.
A capable manager is very important, and Fan Yizi is an indispensable one.
She would never erase the achievements of a meritorious official and make them feel cold. She would never treat those who followed her badly, no matter in any aspect.
"Thank you, Master." Fan Yi was very touched. The fact that the Master was not satisfied was the Master's affirmation of him.
It is their fate that they can meet their master.
"This time I came here. The first thing is to see you and see how our village is doing. The second thing is to ask you to run errands for me and go to various markets. As long as you can eat, I will try my best.
Buy me some more and bring them to Zhuangzi, but don't attract attention." She felt embarrassed if she didn't send some to her friends in the system.
Fan Yi immediately clasped his fists and said, "It's master, I'll give you orders now." He was confused, but never asked.
"Go, I will stay here today."
"Master, I will take you back to the courtyard first. I have been preparing it for you." As long as they buy property, they will always leave a place for their master to stay.
"Okay." Luo Jingyao nodded, very satisfied with this.
After Luo Jingyao kept part of the banknotes she brought with her, she gave the rest to Fan Yi. Although she said she wanted to buy as much as she could, after all, under the emperor's feet, if she moved too much, people would notice her.
I don’t dare to make a big purchase either.
"Buy ten sheep, send half to the Salesian Hospital, and keep the other half here to reward everyone for their hard work. When I go out this time, I will call Ruomeng Qianyu and the others over, and we will get together."
"Master, where are Bai Lu and the others?" This time they didn't come with the master, it must be because of inconvenience, but they were eating and drinking, and the two of them were a bit miserable.
"There's nothing they can do today. I came out like this because I had something to do, so I left them at my grandma's place. They can't be noticed by anyone. I'll invite them alone later." There are many opportunities, after all, the three of them
often together.
anytime.
"It's my master, I'll do it now."
After Luo Jingyao finished explaining, she slowly returned to her room. Although it was much simpler than the one in the Duke's Mansion, it was incomparable. Although it was simple, it was clean and tidy.
Lying on the soft couch, she slowly thought about whether her property in the capital should stay here or move away with her.
She said she should move away because she was just starting out. She said she shouldn’t move away because she was just starting out.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
She had planned it before, and wanted to use fake names for all her properties. But after all, these two things were done under the noses of her parents. She was also afraid that her parents would think of the past and feel painful, so she used her own name.
Go and open these two stores.
For example, in the Salesian Hospital, she used the name of her twin brother Luo Qingcheng, whom she had never met before, and who was wrong and who had competed with her for nourishment in her mother's belly.
This is a taboo that cannot be mentioned in the mansion. Even the old lady does not dare to mention the fifth Luo Qingcheng in front of the Duke and the others.
She used Fifth Brother's name to do good deeds, and hoped that these merits would make her Fifth Brother live a better life in an unknown place.
Because my parents have always believed that Fifth Brother is still alive and waiting for them to find him somewhere.
This was just a thought of hers. After all, he was a little baby, even though his name had been chosen long ago, he had not yet been called.

"Your Highness, you are saying that the emperor has already granted a fief to King An, and it is a place with a vast land and sparsely populated areas." If the land is vast and sparsely populated, it is a barren land where birds can't poop.
He Lingyao asked in surprise. When she heard those few places, her heart was beating fast, not because of anything else, but because she was happy that the good days of Luo Jingyao's life were over.
I'm afraid I'll have to live without enough to eat in the future.
With Wang An's crippled appearance, the people under his command are probably scattered, and those who seek refuge with others, living with only Luo Jingyao's dowry, may not be able to last long. After all, Luo Jingyao's food is useless.
They are all exquisite, and the clothes and jewelry are all gorgeous. These dowries sound and look like a lot, but in fact they are not much in practical use. They really can't last long in Luo Jingyao's hands.
If you want to maintain the current majesty and pomp, you can't do anything without money. You probably can't even afford a maid.
She even saw Luo Jingyao's miserable appearance in her mind.
Hahaha.
Thinking about how Luo Jingyao will live in poverty in the future, while she is living a life of fine clothing and fine food in this splendid courtyard in the capital, she might be able to sit in some of those positions in the future, and that would be a huge difference.
She is the white clouds in the sky, and Luo Jingyao is the dirty mud on the ground.
Is this because she has lived too hard in her two lives and God is compensating her? We also know that Luo Jingyao has lived a very good life. Let them reconcile the two.
That's really great.
"Yeah." The second prince hummed unhappily.
He Lingyao immediately sensed something was wrong and leaned softly into the second prince's arms, coaxing him gently.
"What's bothering you, Your Highness? I can't do anything else, but I can be a listener."
"The ninth brother really has a good father-in-law. They united with all the ministers and asked the father to hand over all the income and taxes from the six cities to the ninth brother, without turning over any cent to the court. This is only a short step from proclaiming himself a king.
That's a few officials." The second prince was angry. He was obviously jealous of the government's protection of Prince An. Even if it was for Luo Jingyao, he felt uncomfortable.
What if he marries Luo Jingyao? With that body, if he dies, the Duke of the State and the Marquis of Zhenxi will probably have to make up for him. Will they be able to take advantage of him then?
After all, Luo Jingyao occupied the position of his first concubine, and even if she died, she would only marry his step-concubine.
The more the second prince thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible, but it was a pity that his father gave him the marriage to his ninth brother.
"What? Isn't this against the rules? They are being arrogant and relying on their little achievements to act unscrupulously."
Hearing He Lingyao's voice that was even angrier than him, the second prince was surprised. He Lingyao turned to the second prince and said: "Although I am just a woman in the back house, I also know the difference between monarch and minister. I have always known that uncle and others are more domineering.
I didn't expect them to look like this in front of the emperor. But when I thought it was for my cousin, I felt relieved. After all, she is the darling of my uncle and the Marquis of Zhenxi. How could I let her suffer so much?"
He Lingyao said helplessly, feeling extremely sad.
"You are indeed right. They directly asked my father to terminate the engagement between the ninth brother and Luo Jingyao. Otherwise, my father would not pay attention to their unreasonable request." The second prince curled his lips, feeling very uneasy.
