The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 199
Shen Yu still remembered that the dessert made by this woman was delicious.
“Meng Chang, go have a look.” Seeing that Shen Yu was concerned, Shang Junlin ordered.
Eunuch Meng, who was waiting by the side, took the order and left.
Eunuch Meng was a popular man serving by His Majesty’s side. When they saw him, the guards stepped aside one after another.
“Eunuch Meng came over to have something important to order?”
The couple also saw Eunuch Meng coming, and the woman in the couple recognized Eunuch Meng and hurriedly stepped forward: “This…”
She didn’t know what to call this great **** who was respected by the guards, so she got stuck.
“Why are you two here?” Eunuch Meng took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment.
The woman pushed the man with her elbow. The man reacted and took out the purse in his arms: “We are here to return this to the noble, it is too precious…”
Eunuch Meng didn’t take it: “Since it was given to you, you can take it.”
Shen Yu looked at what was happening below and wondered, “Are they trying to give Eunuch Meng something?”
“That purse was left by Meng Chang when I left. It looks like they want to return the purse.” The people who practice martial arts have good eyesight, and the position of the couple standing not far from here, businessmen Jun Rin could clearly see what the man was holding.
Thinking that Eunuch Meng could handle this matter, Shen Yu paid attention to it and stopped paying attention, turning to look at the center of the crowd.
The crowd below was surging, and various discussions were heard endlessly.
“I’ve been looking forward to it since the day I got the news, but I’ve waited until today.”
“No, in order to see this scene with my own eyes, I didn’t set up a booth today.”
“A lot of people don’t have it, or they came here after closing the stall early. Fortunately, it is still at the end of the year, and there are not many things to be busy with. I also brought my little baby. This is a major event worth passing on.”
Shen Yu noticed that there were not only adults but also many children below, which should have been brought by adults.
The guards who were transferred did their best to maintain order. Although there were many people, there was no trouble.
Time passed little by little, getting closer and closer to the auspicious time, and finally, the auspicious time came.
An official of the Ministry of Rites with a good reputation stepped forward, and in the eyes of all the people, he lifted the red cloth on the monument.
The crowd stirred.
Those who got close tried to find their name on it, but the stele was too large and there were too many characters engraved on it. It was undoubtedly a huge project to find my name.
The whole process didn’t take long, and after the end, Shen Yu and Shang Junlin went downstairs together.
After going downstairs, the voices of the common people could be heard more clearly, and there were many words praising the emperor.
The common people are like this, they are very easy to be satisfied, as long as they can live a stable life, feel that there is hope for their life, and they are getting better day by day, they will be grateful to those in power.
Under the influence of Shen Yu, Shang Junlin changed his style from the past, and the incidents that happened in the court, especially those related to the people’s livelihood, would be notified to the people through the people’s report. Officials in all parts of Huan also prepared suggestion boxes, and people could go up to heaven to hear what they thought.
If people used to say things they didn’t understand when they talked about Shang Junlin, when they talked about it now, they basically praised him.
Shen Yu is very satisfied with this change.
The couple saw Shen Yu and Shang Junlin who went downstairs in the crowd. The two were extraordinary. The woman in the couple recognized their backs. She held the purse in her hand, and her eyes flashed with complicated emotions.
“Is that the gentleman who came to the house to take shelter from the rain?”
“Yes.”
“Since the nobleman refuses to accept it, let’s accept the money first. Maybe we can help others in the future,” the man explained, “Don’t spend the money indiscriminately.”
“I know.”
With the arrest of the people behind the scenes, the forces behind King Yue were liquidated one by one. After Gu Huai had cleaned up the forces on the bright side, he returned to Beijing to return to his orders.
As the weather gradually warmed up, the new commercial law was implemented in an orderly manner. Because of the donation to Subei in advance, the implementation of the new commercial law did not encounter many obstacles except for a few stubborn old officials in the DPRK.
Businessmen who can grow big are not fools. They know better than anyone what kind of policy is good for them.
After this time, Yan Zheng’s position in the Beijing business circle became more stable. During the time he stayed in the capital, he and Boss Jin became brothers and sisters.
Because of his cooperation with Shen Yu, he was destined to stay in the capital forever, just like now, after the weather warms up, he has everything ready and needs to set off for Subei again.
Before setting off, Shen Yu gave him some information through Shopkeeper Xu, and the people of “Yinghuo” gradually gained a firm foothold in Beimo, and the news was continuously sent back.
Since he was a collaborator, Shen Yu did not hesitate to give Yan Zheng some convenience.
In fact, Shen Yu originally planned to meet people in person, but His Majesty did not allow it. He thought about it and felt that there was no need to meet people in person, so he handed the matter over to Manager Xu.
Compared with him, Yan Zheng and Manager Xu communicated more, and the relationship between the two was more familiar.
When he came to the box, Yan Zheng saw that there was only Shopkeeper Xu. He couldn’t hide his loss in his heart, but his face was not obvious, and he warmly greeted Shopkeeper Xu.
Shopkeeper Xu just pretended he didn’t find out. He was used to seeing men and women in this line of work. Yan Zheng hid it well, but the two of them spent more time together, and it was inevitable that they would find some clues.
According to Shen Yu’s instructions, Manager Xu and Yan Zheng talked about Bei Mo.
“Boss Yan is gone, Bei Mo’s situation may be very different from before. Other things are not important. Boss Yan must take care of himself first. Only in this way can cooperation last for a long time, right?”
“Yan knows that Yan has sense in his heart. When he came back this time, he couldn’t meet your son. This is a gift I brought back from Beimo, and it should be regarded as a New Year’s gift for my partner.”
The servant standing behind Yan Zheng came up with a small box.
“This…” Manager Xu was embarrassed.
“Your son-in-law also gave me a gift for the New Year. It’s just my return gift, nothing else.”
During the Chinese New Year, Shen Yu did send Yan Zheng a New Year’s gift, and shopkeeper Xu knew that he was the one who gave the gift. Shen Yu never treats those around him badly, and Shopkeeper Xu himself also received congratulations.
Seeing that he could not shirk, the shopkeeper Xu accepted the gift: “I will give it to the son.”
“There is shopkeeper Lao Xu.”
“Boss Yan doesn’t really have to be like this. The young master has always been generous to the people around him, and he will reward us with things during the festivals…”
“I know,” Yan Zheng knew that he was persuading himself euphemistically, and smiled bitterly in his heart, “I know my kindness in return, if it weren’t for your son, I wouldn’t be able to be so smooth in the capital. Be careful, it’s nothing to worry about.”
Yan Zheng’s remarks framed his relationship with Shen Yu, it was just a benefactor, everything he did was to repay his gratitude, and there was no other reason.
What Yan Zheng said is not wrong. When he came to the capital, although there were some arrangements, if it wasn’t for Shen Yu, it would not be so easy for him to achieve his goal. Shen Yu was indeed a big favor to him.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Xu was not ready to say anything else.
“Don’t talk about this, last time I went to Beimo, I found that shopkeeper Xu’s mouth grease and other products for women were selling very well, and the customers over there asked me to bring more next time. How much does Mr. Xu have in hand? “Aside from all kinds of thoughts, Yan Zheng started talking about business.
“There are a lot of new products in the store recently, Boss Yan can take a look.”
The two talked about the goods they brought to Beimo, and finally decided to go to shopkeeper Xu’s shop to see the goods.
The congratulatory gift from Yan Zheng was sent to Shen Yu along with the ledger in Shopkeeper Xu’s shop.
Mu Xi came over with the ledger, and Shen Yu saw the extra wooden box above the ledger at a glance.
“what is this?”
Mu Xi brought the box over: “Manager Xu said, this is a gift from Boss Yan to the son, do you want to open it and take a look?”
Shen Yu faintly felt a little pain in his waist, and waved his hand: “Just put it in the warehouse.”
Hearing the words, Mu Xi put the wooden box aside, and took the ledger and put it in front of Shen Yu: “This is the ledger of the shop last month in the hands of Manager Xu, please take a look at it.”
Shen Yule has to delegate power to the people below, but he will definitely catch things that should be caught. For example, he must look over the monthly ledger. Trust is one thing, and what should be done is still done.
Shang Junlin came back after dealing with the matter facing up, and Shen Yu was still looking at the ledger.
Because there are always new products, the business of the shop managed by Mr. Xu is very hot. At present, there are three branches in the capital, and there are also branches in other places. These women’s products are very popular in the south, where the famous family is popular, and there are many branches there.
This caused more and more ledgers to be sent to Shen Yu every month.
“Your Majesty is back.” Shen Yu put down the pen and rubbed his wrist.
Shang Junlin came over, took over his work, and gently squeezed his wrist: “These things can be handed over to the people below, and you don’t have to do it yourself.”
Shen Yu thought about it for a while, and asked, “Is there a palace servant in the palace who is good at this way?”
Shang Junlin looked at Eunuch Meng.
“If you don’t dislike it, you can leave this matter to the boy Meng Yuan. He has been sensitive to numbers since he was a child.” Duke Meng said justly.
Meng Yuan, also known as Eunuch Meng, is currently the **** in charge of Yuzhang Palace. He manages various affairs of Yuzhang Palace.
“Will it bother him too much?”
“Whatever you said, being able to do things for you is the blessing of that kid. If you have anything to do, just tell me.” Eunuch Meng smiled kindly. The people in the palace were not afraid of too many things, but nothing. You can do, instead of being busy, you can’t be idle.
The more things you do, the more you will be valued by the master and the more respected you will be.
“Forget it, Mu Xi, send these ledgers to Meng Yuan, and let him come to me after he finishes processing.” Shen Yu trusts Meng Yuan’s ability very much. With such a huge Yuzhang Palace, in his hands, there is basically no trouble. , he doesn’t need to worry about anything big or small.
Mu Xi left with the ledger.
Shen Yu stood up and walked around the house twice, sitting for too long and needed to move around.
Shang Junlin followed him around the house.
“Today, the court has set the time to execute King Yue.” After a while of silence, Shang Junlin suddenly spoke.
“It’s been delayed for so long, it’s time to settle, and Mrs. Zeng’s, has it been settled?”
Shang Junlin observed the gloomy expression and saw that his expression had not changed at all, and his mood was a little brighter: “Well, it’s settled together.”
“This matter is finally settled, the crime of treason is a felony, and His Majesty wants to kill him, so there will be no one to object?” Shen Yu couldn’t help asking, thinking of the pit left by the late emperor for Shang Junlin.
“It’s about his own life, who would dare to stand up for him?” Shang Junlin stopped, holding Shen Yu’s wrist tightly, “When the day comes, does Ayu want to see it?”
Witness the death of King Yue.
