Chapter 120 Breaking the dictatorship

Jiang Huan did learn some divination from Salo when he was young, but it was just superficial and he only knew a little bit about it.

However, Salo once told Jiang Huan that the so-called divination is to predict the will of heaven and the heart of the people.

Seventy percent is to see the will of God, and the remaining three points is to look at people's faces, that is, to read minds.

Jiang Huan regretted that he had not learned this knowledge from his master at that time, but it was just a little bit that he could explore the two of them.

Jiang Huan pretended to be mysterious, took off her pearl earrings, shook them twice in her hands.

Then she raised the pendant high and carefully considered the color of the pearl against the light.

"Secret." Jiang Huan said softly, "You are hiding a secret, and this secret will bring disaster to you in the near future."

Qiu Xingjian's smiling eyes suddenly trembled, and his fanning hand stopped.

Not only Qiu Xingjian, but also Chen Ruyi was startled and frowned slightly.

Jiang Huan squinted his eyes to observe the changes in the expressions of the two men, and then shook the pendant a few more times.

I saw the light passing through the pendant, emitting different colors, dazzling and bright, and the eyes of those who looked at it were unconsciously attracted to it.

Jiang Huan twisted the pendant and reached out to touch it lightly. He saw that the pendant cracked and scattered on the ground.

This scared everyone, including Jiang Huan himself.

Previously, my master taught me that if the object of the hexagram is broken, it is an ominous sign.

This fine pearl pendant is an extremely hard and expensive item. It will not break even if it is dropped on the ground. How come it is broken so badly now.

Jiang Huan felt a little flustered for no reason. She hurriedly bent down and wrapped the broken pieces with a handkerchief. She hurriedly smiled and said, "It's probably damp, don't worry about it. It's getting late, we still have to

Please leave the palace quickly."

Jiang Huan said and handed the handkerchief to Mengyu, and then waved to Qiu Xingjian, signaling for him to follow her.

However, Qiu Xingjian remained stuck in place, showing no reaction at all.

Jiang Huan couldn't help but raise her voice and shouted, "Qiu Xingjian! If we don't leave the palace, it will be the gate time, and we all have to spend the night in the palace!"

Qiu Xingjian suddenly reacted. He quickly put the folding fan into his sleeves and said with a smile, "Here we come."

-Prince's Mansion

Qiu Xingjian's expression just looked wrong, especially when he said the words "disaster".

What secrets do he and Chen Ruyi hide, and is it actually related to disaster?

Jiang Huan was confused and it was difficult to understand.

She pieced together the pendant in front of her, with countless confusions in her heart.

These mysteries are all connected together, as if they are waiting for an entrance to reveal all their problems.

But Jiang Huan couldn't find this entrance.

"Princess, please have a rest first. This is the milk cake that the third prince has stuffed for you. You can try it." Mengyu came with a small tray, on which nine pieces of milk cake were placed squarely. It was a pleasure to look at.

Jiang Huan has loved eating this milk cake since he was a child, but the way of storing it is a bit troublesome. He didn't expect that the third brother also thought of a way to protect it so well, and followed him to Chen country.

Jiang Huan happily picked up a piece and felt relaxed.

"Have you heard from Zuihonglou recently?" Jiang Huan asked.

She originally didn't want to overthrow Chen Yan's current rule and seek the dragon throne. But now, even if she doesn't want to, this is something she has to do.

As long as the current political power does not fall into his own hands, he will not be able to completely protect Jiang State in his own hands.

Jiang Huan had been wavering about the matchmaker's proposal to her before, but now, she already had the answer.

"I heard that the new number one Miss Shengxue is as famous as Mr. Ji, and she is an extremely outstanding actor. The matchmaker also found a new restaurant, and temporarily opened the Zuihong Restaurant. As for the old location that was originally burned down, the matchmaker has already

We have arranged for reconstruction." Mengyu reported back.

They were not in Chen country these days, and the letters delivered by Zuihonglou were all sent under the identity of a rice merchant, saying that they were discussing the shop with the Fifth Princess.

After going back and forth, many servants in the mansion thought that the fifth princess wanted to reopen a rice shop so that she could overturn the prime minister's exclusive power over the rice shop.

"Authority?" Jiang Huan frowned slightly. She put down the handkerchief, took a few letters and read them, "It is said that the Prime Minister's Mansion was imprisoned for a month. Pang Yan really knows how to guard him safely.

The prime minister’s office didn’t take any action?”

Mengyu shook her head, but it meant that she didn't know much about the matter.

Since the last incident involving the remnants of the country, the Prime Minister's Mansion has closed its main entrance and no longer sees visitors.

People outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out. Not even a little bit of news has leaked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As for what happened there, only Pang Yan himself knows.

"That's a good idea." Jiang Huan nodded. She opened her dressing box, counted the jewelry in it, and ordered, "Sell these jewelry, and then count a box of silver coins to see if there is enough money.

A few rice shops."

Mengyu's eyes widened in astonishment, thinking that she had heard wrongly, and quickly rubbed her ears.

However, Jiang Huan reached out and flicked her forehead and said with a smile, "You heard me right, I plan to open a few rice shops. In addition to the rice shops, I also want to open a restaurant."

Jiang Huan took out a piece of rice paper, raised the pen holder, and drew only one line, and then wrote on both sides: rice shop, restaurant, vegetable seller.

Previously, Chen Ruyi and Jiang Huan interceded for Pang Yan, not for anything else, except that most of the businesses Pang Yan controlled were related to people's livelihood.

If Pang Yan loses his power, the people will be the ones who suffer the most.

If you want to get rid of Pang Yan without any worries, the first thing you have to do is to clear out the shops that Pang Yan has exclusive control over bit by bit and fill them with your own power.

The most important thing is the rice shop.

The soil in Kyoto is acidic, making it difficult to plant large areas of rice. Therefore, if the people want to have sufficient supply and demand of rice, they must transport rice into the city from Jiangnan and Luocheng.

The rice in Luocheng has been monopolized by Pang Yan for a long time. What Jiang Huan can do now is to open the road to the south of the Yangtze River.

Jiang Huan rubbed his chin, already having an idea in mind.

"Is Chen Ruyi going to Jiangnan in a few days?" Jiang Huan asked.

Mengyu nodded, and Jiang Huan smiled confidently, "I want to go with him."
