The Imperial Concubine Chef - C123
The rebel army in the east of the Yangtze River was finally completely exterminated on the 29th of the 12th month of the same year. When the people of Haian City found out about this news, it was already the fifth day of the first month.
Even though it looked like a war that was far from reaching the Haian City, in reality, it had already affected the entire nation. At this end, everyone was naturally elated. The Prefect’s yamen spent money to hire the lion dancing team. From the east street to the west street, from the south side of the city to the north side, everyone seemed to be extremely happy. There were even many cases of buying and selling, where only one country could have peace of mind in the next year.
However, for matters like war, there would naturally be people who would lose if they won. The loser, on the other hand, would naturally not admit defeat if it was related to the change of authority. But how could the victor give them the chance to counterattack? It was the same in the imperial court and in the shopping mall.
Zhang Ziyi had already started moving earlier. The rebel army had actually failed long ago. It was just that he had not been able to capture the bandit leader, so he could not declare this to be the end. Now, Tian Liyong’s army had captured the bandit leader alive and had him sent to the capital. Therefore, the news of their victory came from the capital. As for them, they had been preparing for the fall season since a long time ago.
Zhang Ziyi would naturally not tell Su Xinyu about the things that happened at the side, but he had said before, there would be a cheap store that they could use at this time of year. The people from Third Prince needed a large amount of money to plan things out. Adding Shangguan Lin’s pressure, at least in this place that originally belonged to Shangguan Lin and the Fourth Prince, there was no longer a place for them to earn a living. Therefore, the number of businesses that had been swallowed by Shangguan Lin numbered over thirty. Some were big and some were small. Shangguan Lin was different from the others. He told Zhang Ziyi and the other big managers very clearly that no matter how small the mosquitoes were, they were still meat. Nor should they give Third Prince any remaining opportunities.
Others might not care about it, but for Su Xinyu, he had to give her the best and most suitable store. So on the sixth day, Zhang Ziyi asked the young lad to invite the Su Family Young Master over. He had something to discuss with her.
Originally, Su Xinyu thought that she was going to talk to him about Wen Ling. When she heard that it concerned him opening a restaurant. “Su Xinyu immediately became excited. is to say that I have many choices? ”
Zhang Ziyi laughed, “Of course. I won’t hide the truth from you, these shops are all big and small, and there are even many mansions, they are all part of the Third Prince. They were defeated, and now they needed a large amount of money, so they sold some of it. Of course, there was a small part of it that was squeezed by us. All of this is in our hands now. When I buy it, it’s not expensive. I can refund it to you at its original price. I know that your family is more populous now, and it’s not convenient to live in such a small yard. I still have a few houses on the east side of the street. They all have three or four ways to go, just look at which one is pleasing to the eye. Or leave two more places, and it would be good to open the workshop next to you. ”
Su Xinyu looked at the stack of land deeds handed over by Zhang Ziyi, and her eyes stared blankly. Even though she had always felt that she was someone who had seen the world in her previous life, she was still shocked by all of this. There are actually so many of them! ”
Zhang Ziyi nodded, “Of course. This is only a County City. ”
Su Xinyu was speechless. In such a big place, the land area of the Great Yan Kingdom should be about the same as the Heaven Dynasty in her previous life. How many businesses must the Third Prince have! Not to say if he would become emperor in the future. Even if he couldn’t become the emperor, with such a powerful economic network in the country, could it be that the Fourth Prince wouldn’t be able to deal with him? The more she thought about it, the more worried he became.
“Zhang Ziyi had originally thought that Su Xinyu would be very happy to see all of this. Young Master Su? What’s wrong with you? ”
Su Xinyu regained her senses, sighed, and did not hide anything. This Third Prince already has so many properties in this place, wouldn’t it be hard to deal with a big bird like Big Yan? ”
“Zhang Ziyi immediately laughed. “Think about it, how much profit would we reap from taking over his properties?”
Su Xinyu really did not think of this just now. Thinking of this, his eyes immediately widened. Isn’t that as rich as a nation? ”
Zhang Ziyi did not continue with this topic. After all, he was very clear that Fifth Master had not told this young mistress the truth. “If the bottom of his heart were to be exposed from his side, and if any undesirable consequences were to occur, then he would be guilty.” Even if we can’t get that much, once the Third Prince falls, those properties will naturally disappear. In this world, the victor was king and the loser was a thief. According to what I know, the Emperor has already seen through the appearance of the Third Prince and will definitely not hand over the throne to him. ”
However, Su Xinyu did not feel that she could be this optimistic, “Although I do not understand the affairs of the imperial court, sometimes it might not be so easy to fulfill one’s wish, right?” For example, coercing the palace, or forging a testamentary edict after an assassination. Although these were all parts of the TV series that had been used up, she knew very well that in the real world, everything would only be more cruel and bloody.
Zhang Ziyi immediately understood Su Xinyu’s thoughts. He was surprised that a little girl not only had a business mind, but also a glimpse or two of what was going on in the court. Though that was his own idea. However, it was not too different from the truth. Perhaps this kind of extraordinary woman was the most suitable for Master. Compared to the woman who insisted on forcefully inserting herself into his master’s side, he truly hoped that one day, this young mistress could become their mistress. How could a successful career go smoothly? If we win or lose, someone will work hard. ”
Su Xinyu sighed, and did not speak further. She could only hope that the box of pills she gave Wen Ling before she left would save his life when the time came.
The situation within the court was indeed extremely dangerous. Shangguan Lin, however, was not the most dangerous one.
Within the imperial harem, Sixth Prince Shangguan Jun knelt in front of the harem and his body could not help but tremble. Imperial Mother, please spare my life! This son has never done such a shameful thing! It was that slut who framed him! Queen Mother, please seek justice for this son! ”
A girl who looked like she was only 14 or 15 years old knelt at the door. The makeup on her face had long been dyed red by her tears, but now, her eyes were completely calm. This was because a person who had lost all hope no longer had any emotion left to express.
Afraid? Once upon a time. And scared to death. However, once he was dead, what was the use of being afraid? Even if the left was dead, there was no difference.
The woman sitting with her hands hanging by her sides looked at the young girl at the door and sighed softly. Empress, since this woman framed Jun’er, you can definitely help her. ”
Shangguan Jun never thought that the Imperial Consort Wen would actually plead on her behalf. Although it was very surprising, but how could the people who grew up in the palace not understand the principle of abandoning cars to protect their handsome? Thus, he hurriedly kowtowed and said, “Muhou! I beg you to seek justice for this son of mine! ”
After that, she squinted her eyes and looked at Imperial Consort Wen with a strange smile. Little sister, this woman is a concubine in the fifth palace.
The Imperial Consort Wen sighed, “Elder sister, what are you saying? Lin’er has not been in the capital for many years, and he has never even seen this concubine before. ” Speaking of which, this woman had been gifted to his son by the empress. He knew his son couldn’t go back to the capital, yet he still gave him such a gift. Wasn’t he just trying to make things difficult for him? So even when it came to the horizon, how could the so-called ‘theft’ be linked to his son? However, she couldn’t say these words out loud, nor could she say them out loud. Naturally, she also knew that the empress would not be stupid enough to put this loot on her son.
As expected, she did not continue to get involved with Shangguan Lin’s relationship with this matter. “But with this reason, she once again thought of her scheme.” Speaking of which, this year had passed, and Ol ‘Five was already sixteen. It was time to get married and have children. The third and fourth eldest son had already had an eldest son at his age, yet he didn’t even have a close concubine. I was busy with matters of the harem and delayed Ol ‘Five. As your mother, how come you didn’t know how to help Zhang Luo? In my opinion, it’s better to choose a suitable principal wife for Ol ‘Five from the noble family in the capital. It was just that he did not know which family’s girl would be more suitable for Old Fifth. Little sister, what do you think about Prime Minister Yuan’s granddaughter? Although that little girl is a few years older than Fifth Brother, he is a person who knows pain and heat. ”
“Imperial Consort Wen was annoyed, but on the surface she could not show it at all. This matter was chenqie’s fault and disturbed the empress. However, previously, she had already calculated it for Lin’er. She was told that he should not marry when she was a teenager. Otherwise, they would have gotten rid of the six relatives. It was because his sister felt that her words were unpleasant that she didn’t tell her sister. However, the Emperor is aware of this matter. The Emperor has also instructed her concubine not to ask for Lin’er’s family members’ names until she is twenty-five years old. ”
Although he clearly knew that this was just an excuse, since Imperial Consort Wen dared to say that the Emperor knew, then the Emperor definitely must know. If he insisted on letting Shangguan Lin marry him right now, then no matter which of the royal descendants it was, the crime would be his. And now, if he wanted to deal with the royal family’s issue, it would be as easy as flipping his hand. Naturally, she wouldn’t give his face to the people of the Wen family. Pity my fifth son. But forget it, since we have the words of a master, we can’t not believe it. Since this matter was still too early, there was no need to mention it again. Today, Madame Zhao had seduced the Sixth Prince and framed him. “You shameless bastard! If you drag him down, throw him out of the palace and no one will be allowed to bury his corpse!”
The woman had thought it was only death. However, he had never wanted to be buried in a wilderness where corpses were not allowed to be buried. To the people of this era, this was almost the same as a thousand cuts and ten thousand cuts. At this moment, the despairing lady was filled with rage. Since he was already dying so miserably. “What else does she have to worry about?” Poison woman! It was clearly you who ordered me to seduce the Sixth Prince so that the Emperor could be angered and punish the Sixth Prince with the crime of being a lecherous brother and concubine. Yet you do this to me! Poison woman! I curse everyone in your Lou Family to die a horrible death! Every one of them was splashed three feet with blood. Not a complete corpse! “
