Chapter 187 Cao Jing Has Not Returned
The housekeeper didn't know that Qin Feng wanted to go so far, so he happily followed the prince's instructions and invited the two of them to visit the yard and enjoy the exotic flowers and herbs he had collected. In addition to camellia, King Rui also planted orchids.
The orchids are delicate, and there are many rare varieties. King Rui collected a lot of them. There are people in the palace who are responsible for maintaining these flowers and plants. According to the housekeeper, the monthly income of these gardeners is almost as much as that of his big housekeeper, but there is no way, those gardeners are all
It was dug from far away from the south of the Yangtze River.
As expected of the chief manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Qin Feng's emotion became more obvious when he saw those orchids.
In later generations, those orchid varieties will be the orchids of modern society, and one orchid is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
The couple had a great time in King Rui's mansion, and had a meal with King Rui. The atmosphere was very harmonious. Before leaving, King Rui personally sent them to the carriage, and they felt a bit reluctant to leave:
"Come again, must come again."
"Thank you for your hospitality. The emperor will be able to come to the princess's mansion someday. My husband and I will treat him well." Xiao Lingyao opened the curtain on the carriage and smiled sweetly: "Farewell to the emperor."
Qin Feng also saluted on the side, and the couple stood close together, looking quite affectionate.
Watching the carriage drive away, King Rui was still standing at the door. The old housekeeper also had a fatherly smile on his face: "The princess and the consort are really well matched. They look like a wonderful couple. How beautiful their children will be in the future."
."
"The two of them were indeed born well. The prince-in-law followed his mother more." King Rui thought of Liu Yuan, with a smile on his lips, and said reluctantly: "There is still a certain amount of following Taifu Qin, but Yao'er,
He really looks like that one."
King Rui accepted the offer as soon as he saw it, but the housekeeper didn't know the inside story. He thought he was his father and said cheerfully: "Your Majesty's golden branches and jade leaves look very much like your Majesty. Your Majesty is going to the study to read a collection of poems?"
The old housekeeper is an old man. He knows that King Rui is very interested in the poetry collection Qin Feng sent today. He just sent someone to the study to clean it up, put soft pillows, prepared tea, and was waiting for King Rui to go. King Rui slapped the old man.
On the shoulders of the housekeeper: "It would be great if you were a woman."
The old housekeeper's face turned red, this prince!
Besides, Qin Feng got the approval of King Rui and had an exact date. He felt very satisfied. Sitting on the carriage, the smile on his face could no longer be concealed. Seeing that his fictitious business was about to get back on track, he was half-hearted.
It is relaxed and half solemn.
I don’t know what the three major imperial merchants thought after learning about his plan with King Rui. He planned to prepare some arguments to persuade the three major imperial merchants and dispel their concerns on the spot.
You have to do this when investing.
Xiao Lingyao watched as the joy on his face flashed away and was replaced by a solemn look. She was surprised in her heart and said that she could change her face very quickly. How could this consort be the same? Wasn't it fruitful to go to Prince Rui's Mansion today?
She knew that she had no control over Qin Feng's business affairs. When he arrived at the princess's mansion, Qin Feng watched Xiao Lingyao enter the mansion alone. He turned around and took Jing Wuming and the others to Anding Mansion. After all, it was more important to do business.
He stayed at Anding Mansion until night. In the evening, he asked Long Qi to run to the Princess Mansion to send a message to the Princess Mansion. There was no need to leave any food.
Qin Feng was busy with the business of the trading company. Night fell slowly, but Xiao Lingyao's mood was as heavy as night. Cao Jing had lost news. However, he couldn't stop him from going to the Ministry of Punishment, considering his skills.
?
The reason why Cao Jing went to the Ministry of Punishment was to deal with letting Yuan out of the house and the follow-up matters.
After knowing that Yuan was Sister Yuan'er, Xiao Lingyao had never been so eager to let her escape from the backyard of Taifu's Mansion. When she returned home, she saw Sister Yuan'er deliberately keeping a low profile and groveling in front of Tang Hongying. Xiao Lingyao was heartbroken.
Who is Tang Hongying? Former Grand Master, now the daughter of the Left Prime Minister. Prime Minister Tang was one of the instigators of the Navy collusion case!
Sister Yuan'er has spent these years under the nose of her enemy's daughter. She and her enemy's daughter have stayed in the same mansion.
Xiao Lingyao didn't want to let sister Yuan'er go through this kind of torture for a day. She just put a lot of effort into how to arrange the mother and son. Fortunately, Lou Mingyue was there.
Most of the reasons why Master Lou retired back then were because of what happened to the former Navy. Although he was highly virtuous, he could not prevent the evil consequences. Seeing that the Navy officers and soldiers who had been with him day and night met such a miserable ending, he retired
Silent resistance.
Originally unwilling to accept a disciple, he changed his mind and accepted Qin Qi as his disciple after he found out whose son Qin Qi was.
After settling sister Yuan'er's child, the next step is to take her out of the house.
Sister Yuan'er hated Tang Hongying very much, but it happened that the mother-in-law and her son were also wasted by their mistress. She hit it off with Qin Feng, and took advantage of Sister Yuan'er's leaving the house to kill three birds with one stone. Before leaving, she cheated Tang Hongying again, but the result was...
Got my wish.
The next step is how to place Sister Yuan'er. After all, her identity is the daughter of a guilty minister, and she faked her death and left the house. If people find out, the consequences will be disastrous and Qin Qi will be implicated.
It was Xiao Lingyao's sudden thought to ask her to find the remnants of the navy, and it was not planned in advance. As Qin Feng said, among all the remnants, the exiled ones were the easiest to find, but it was not easy to escape.
This time, Sister Yuan'er went and brought a lot of fake death medicines, all of which Xiao Lingyao spent a lot of money to buy. Qin Feng was only surprised that there were so many secrets in her princess's house, but he didn't know that she needed them somewhere he couldn't see.
How much silver did it cost!
Not only are her secret guards and family members, she is taking care of them with all her strength. These are expenses that have been incurred over the years, and she also needs money to take care of various things, including this time Sister Yuan went to the place of exile. In order to prevent her from
It's hard work and it costs a lot.
Who would have expected that the majestic Princess Jinhua, despite her apparent splendor, would also have to avoid the embarrassment of being short of money and money.
It seems that the father gave a lot of rewards, but those things are flashy and cannot be left out, nor can they be sold directly, so it is not surprising that the inner treasury is full of rewards, but it is a pity that they cannot be directly turned into banknotes.
Otherwise, she wouldn't feel sorry for the silver coins that invested in Hongyu Tower. Xiao Lingyao sighed. In order to find out where the navy soldiers were exiled, she asked Cao Jing to find the officials from the Ministry of Justice who were involved in the case to secretly inquire about Naihe's death.
Die, retreat.
After all, after many years, there have been great changes within the Ministry of Punishment. The only official who dealt with him back then was Hu Shangshu, and that person was the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Lingyao did not want Cao Jing to get close to this person, so as not to offend the enemy.
Cao Jing, dressed in night clothes, broke into the Ministry of Justice, obtained the files from that year, and learned about the place of exile.
