Chapter 765: Void Heart
There were pigeon guards mixed in the jailer, and what Boss Jin said to Governor Wang was sent to Li Qianqian's case not long after, and it was sent together, as well as the two fish that Jin Nuer saw that slipped through the net, and the people who connected with Boss Jin and so on.
After Li Qianqian looked through it, he asked Liu Er, "Jin Nuer said that she saw these two fish that slipped through the net in the square in front of the inn?"
"Exactly. Liu Er was a little worried, "You say, will these two people have already mixed into the inn?"
"That's for sure, but how did they get in? Did they come with the owner? Or did they get in and do things?"
Liu Er thought for a while and said, "It should have been mixed in with the guests of the inn, because the inn has not recruited people for a while." ”
Li Qianqian motioned for Chunjiang to serve him tea, and then said to him, "That's not necessarily, they can sneak into the inn early, after all, we were a little hasty when we recruited before, and we didn't check the details of the applicants in detail." ”
The shopkeeper and steward in the hot spring inn, in addition to transferring talented people from the rudder and shops from all over the country, there are still many vacancies, all of them use Rui Yao to teach Chinese people, and transfer people from all over the place, it is a little inconvenient, because a lot of capable people have been transferred over, and then the people from the bottom up to fill in the blanks have to go, just afraid that the rudder and the shop will have a problem, so Li Qianqian asked Master Li and Ye Zhuang to hire people in Shuilan City and surrounding towns nearby.
With so many shareholders gathered at the Hot Spring Inn, it was not surprising that Boss Kim's people would sneak in to do things.
As long as they recruit one or two rich and powerful guests from the guests of the inn, it is enough for them to spend all over the building to eat and drink, even if they don't attract wealthy guests, then get a few, and the steward who has face in front of the master to spend the whole building, this cost is enough to see!
Of course, many shops do this, and it is not unusual for them to do so, and these people can also get double salaries, but when they see greedy and lustful customers, they mention the flowers all over the building, and then tell them that they can enjoy a discount by reporting their names after they go.
Even if you are rich, you will inevitably have times when you are greedy for a small profit.
Many shops in the city also do this, but their practice is to say to the little two or stewards of the inns and restaurants in the city, and the guests come to consume, if they report their names, they can enjoy discounts, and then they will be divided according to the number of guests who come to the door every month.
Liu Er also knew about this method, but he didn't expect that the people who spent a lot of money might sneak into the inn to pull business.
"If this Boss Jin really does this, then how many of her subordinates are there?" Liu Er was speechless.
"Or it can be said that Prince Jing's Mansion is short of money!"
"It's lacking. Feng Gongzi walked in and said categorically, "Prince Jing doesn't care about anything, but he was the person who is the most promising person to become the prince, and he has been of the highest grade since he was a child, and if he is worse, he has never been to him." Even if Cheng Cripple passed by the great position, the first emperor pitied him very much for this. ”
However, the king's mercy is limited, and no matter how merciful he is, it is impossible to pass the throne to him, of course, he did not give him a rich fief because of this, so as to ensure that he has no worries for the rest of his life, this is a matter of grace, and he left it to Emperor Chengping to do.
However, Emperor Chengping did not comply.
For this reason, Prince Jing scolded him a lot at home, but even so, Emperor Chengping still did not give him a fief.
Li Qianqian smiled and poured tea for him, Liu Er got up to greet him, Feng Gongzi replied with a half-salute, then sat down and took the tea that Li Qianqian gave him, and after taking a sip, he put it on the table, took out a stack of paper from his arms, and it was densely written with words, it seems that he should have found something.
"Do you want to send these things directly to the prefect Wang's mansion?" After Li Qianqian took it, he didn't look at it.
Feng Gongzi smiled, "It's not too important news, in fact, the secret agents of the Emperor Jingli have it in their hands, but they don't know how to find it and use it." ”
Li Qianqian thought about it, and after taking it and quickly browsing it, he gave Liu Er a copy after reading one, and the two of them quickly finished reading it, and Li Qianqian looked up at Feng Gongzi.
"This Prince Jing is really bold! she coaxed so many people to help her make money in various places?"
It's just that why did she have to let these women into the Qinglou? Since she has the help of manpower, opening a restaurant, inn or teahouse, can't she also make money and collect intelligence, why ......
Could it be ...... "Could it be that among these people, there is really the daughter of Prince Jing?" Li Qianqian asked tentatively.
Feng Gongzi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Li Qianqian to guess so quickly. "Yes, there is more than one, but that Boss Jin is not. ”
"Then ......" Li Qianqian waited for an answer, and Feng Gongzi chuckled, "Only one of these three relics is still alive now, but she has long been out of the control of Prince Jing and Princess Jing." ”
It turned out that there were three missing pearls! Li Qianqian's face was amazed, and Liu Er was shocked, Prince Jing, as a mother-in-law, actually got her husband's concubine into the Qinglou, this woman was too vicious!
"Are they from the outer chamber?" "If you are born in the Prince's Mansion, even if you are a daughter, you have to be a jade, after all, it is a clan.
"Well, and the biological mothers of these three people are not low-handed, and one of them was once the guard of Prince Jing. ”
Li Qianqian thought for a moment and asked, "Could it be the mother of the missing pearl who is still alive?"
Feng Gongzi smiled appreciatively, "Exactly." The guard was in love with him day and night, and she cheated to death after having a child, at that time, Prince Jing was a thorn in the side of the princes, and was often assassinated, so she took advantage of it, but how could it be discovered by Prince Jing and Princess Jing, and when she was out, she abducted her daughter. ”
Feng Gongzi took a big sip of the teacup, and Li Qianqian hurriedly helped him refill it.
She found out that her whereabouts were exposed, and she cheated to death again, before sneaking back to the prince's palace to track down her daughter's whereabouts. ”
It's just that she was unlucky, Prince Jing didn't bring her daughter back to the palace at all, she didn't know where her daughter was taken, so she could only wait for an opportunity in the palace.
Later, Xu did too many bad things, God couldn't look past it, or because things were too smooth, so he gradually relaxed, anyway, after all, the female guard found the clue, but she was also discovered by Prince Jing's people, and the next thing was to chase and kill for more than ten years, she wanted to cheat to death again, but unfortunately because the pursuers chased too close, so she couldn't arrange a scam at all.
By the time she succeeded in killing her pursuers, her daughter had become a well-known Oiran lady and had already served Prince Jing.
She finally recovered from her injuries and planned to find her daughter, only to find out that Prince Jing used these girls to establish a huge intelligence network, but it was a pity that she couldn't rely on selling news to make money like Fengjiazhuang, otherwise just by selling this information, Prince Jing's Mansion would not be short of money at all.
It took her a lot of effort to recognize her daughter, and the mother and daughter sold all the information they had to Fengjiazhuang in exchange for a place to live.
"That's why you know these things?"
"In fact, our people have long noticed that there are well-known Oiran ladies in several major cities in Southern Chu, they have good wrists and countless subordinates, but they have not found that they have done anything bad. ”
They are all like Boss Jin, someone does bad things for them, after these people finish their work, they have someone to clean up, they just need to appear in front of everyone beautifully every day, and deal with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, if someone annoys them, someone will be angry for them, even if Mrs. Jiang is like that.
Once there is a successful model, it is easy to copy it to other people, but people's hearts are unpredictable, but like Mrs. Jiang, there is almost no one who pays so little attention to her own bloodline, and fortunately, she is the only one who encounters like Jin Nuer.
"How did the other two relics die?"
"One is a blood collapse when giving birth, but I'm not sure if anyone did anything from it, and the other is that she is already weak, the old bustard doesn't know her identity, and thinks she spends too much, it is said that she should be like Boss Jin, become the behind-the-scenes boss of the green building, but the old bustard's means are higher than her, and she subdued the people sent by Prince Jing's mansion. ”
Anyway, what Prince Jing and Princess Jing wanted was just the silver tickets they handed in, and as for who helped her earn it, she didn't care at all and didn't care about it.
The old bustard easily persuaded the man sent by Prince Jing, until the female guard mother and daughter sold the news to Fengjiazhuang, she stayed in the Qinglou well, serving the deceased pearl to Princess Jing.
Li Qianqian shook his head, "This Princess Jing is really a ......?" Say that she is jealous! Anyone who is a wife of Xiao San and Xiao San can't bear it, right? No matter how generous and generous she is on the surface, in fact, she will inevitably have resentment, hatred, and of course even more jealousy in her heart.
She thought for a long time before she said, "A murderous person." ”
Isn't it cruel means? Feng Gongzi smiled, "When the one in the palace receives these things, I'm afraid that her good life will come to an end!"
"What about her son?"
"I don't know, although he took over the management of this mess, but the front was all arranged by his mother, and it was a little difficult for the emperor to really cure his crimes, but this kind of thing cannot be publicized, maybe in the end, it will make them sick and die, anyway, don't they have medicine in their hands? If the prince and princess do this kind of thing, it will be a scandal when it spreads, so it is better to clean it up quietly. ”
Li Qianqian and Liu Er listened and nodded in agreement.
The next day, the nephew of the prefect of the palace came again, this time with nearly ten guards, two stayed by the car to accompany the coachman, and the others accompanied him into the inn to see Li Qianqian.
Li Qianqian has sent someone to tell Master Li here, and Master Li has the opportunity to make friends with the prefect, so he is too busy to come down.
Both parties were satisfied that an agreement was reached.
The next step is to arrange for the prefect of the king to bring Jin Nu'er and Mr. Jiang and his wife to the inn for a meeting.
At this time, in the inn, an old guest quarreled for some reason, and the shopkeeper received a notice, so he rushed over with two henchmen, but he didn't want to, and he didn't come out as soon as he entered.
Seeing this, the people below had to hurry to find Li Qianqian to get an idea.
"What's going on?" asked Liu Er with a straight face.
The shopkeeper learned that someone was making trouble, so he rushed to deal with it, and then he didn't come out. Xiao Er, who watched the shopkeeper and stewards enter, was so frightened that his face turned pale.
Li Qianqian looked at his face as white as paper, motioned for Liu Er to sit down, and poured him a cup of hot tea to calm him down.
A few stewards who came along helped explain, "I heard that the family members of that old man Wang didn't know what they heard from outside, and then they made a noise. ”
"Boss Wang is old, and he can't afford to make such a noise, so he sent someone to find and deal with it. ”
When the shopkeeper found out, he brought in two stewards. ”
"It's just that I don't know what's going on inside, someone actually shouted murder!" The steward who spoke looked at Xiao Er, whose face was pale, sympathetically, "His father is one of the two stewards who followed the shopkeeper in." ”
Liu Er patted Xiao Er's shoulder sympathetically, watching his father go in on an adventure, life and death were uncertain, no wonder the son was frightened, his hand slid to his back, and at the same time injected a trace of internal force to help him stabilize his emotions.
Li Qianqian didn't understand very well, so he gestured to them to shut up, and then pointed to one of them and asked, "Who is Master Wang?"
"Mr. Wang used to be a scholar of the household department, but he has returned to his hometown, and he has rheumatism in his legs, so the doctor suggested that he come to our hot spring inn to recuperate. ”
Li Qianqian thought of what Jin Nu'er said, the two fish that slipped through the net, she turned her head to look at Feng Gongzi, and saw it in Feng Gongzi's eyes, "You say, could it be that they saw the guards who escorted the king's staff." ”
"Mistaken for them? Feng Gongzi said, "This also indirectly confirms that they know that the government is arresting them." ”
I must know, otherwise I wouldn't have killed the other two. It's just that Boss Wang, surnamed Wang, won't have anything to do with the Wang's prefect and Wang's staff, right?
Before Li Qianqian could speak, Liu Er had already reacted, "This king is not the other king, the uncle and nephew of the prefect of the Wang Mansion are from the capital, this Wang Lao should be from Yingcheng, right?"
The stewards looked at Liu Er with admiration, "Exactly, Mr. Wang came from Yingcheng, because the conditioning in our inn is very effective, so he came here a year ago, and specially asked us to help him exchange booking time with other guests." ”
Some guests book a room, but they can't spare time temporarily, and they don't want to leave a bad record, so they will ask the inn to help, and exchange the original time with other guests, or exchange the other party's reservation time, or trade with money.
In this regard, Li Qianqian does not interfere, this is a little benefit for the inn staff to earn extra money, they help the guests, the guests because of their assistance, to achieve their own goals, for which to help the person to pay, very reasonable!
It's just that in the end it is the owner's own opinion, so after the steward finished speaking, along with the other stewards, they were a little embarrassed.
Li Qian glanced at them and didn't say anything, but said, "What matters now is how to rescue the shopkeeper and the others safely." ”
"Yes. ”
When Li Qianqian and Feng Gongzi went to the guest room together, Li Shu and Feng Lao Zhuang had already arrived, and there were many curious guests and their servants around them.
"Do you know what's going on inside?"
"I don't know yet, but there are a few women in there, shouting and screaming all the time. Li Shu is very uninterested in the kind of woman who can only scream and cry when she encounters something, and the owner of Feng Lao Zhuang has a headache for this kind of woman.
Feng Gongzi has seen a woman, there is no such type, so he is frowning the whole time, three types of beautiful men, attracted the attention of many onlookers, and have inquired about the inn's Xiao Er and the steward, and some people saw Li Qianqian, seeing that she was surrounded by people, some people guessed that she was the largest proprietor of the hot spring inn, but some people didn't know, and asked Xiao Er and the steward about her.
Li Qianqian is actually very unruly about this kind of woman who can only cry when she encounters an incident, but in the end, she is the one in charge, and she still has to come forward to solve it, and she can't let her cousin come forward, right? If he comes forward, he will definitely kill the women who quarrel with him first.
"Go and invite Mother Ye to come over and sit in town, and after inviting those ladies out for a while, I will ask Mother Ye to help comfort them. ”
I believe that Mother Ye, who has experience in waiting for hostesses, will definitely be able to successfully complete the task.
