104. Great delight
When Li was busy with these things, he didn't notice that Shuangxi upstairs had already packed his luggage and sneaked into Aman's room. Seeing that Aman was sleeping soundly on the bed, Shuangxi gently pushed him a few times, "Aman, get up quickly." ”
"What's wrong?" Aman rubbed his eyes.
"Do you want to go to the imperial capital?"
"What are you going to do in the imperial capital?"
"See Brother!"
"Brother?" When Aman heard this, he immediately got up energetically, "Yes!" ”
"Let me tell you, Daddy is going to visit Brother Grande in the imperial capital with Brother Dazhi! Hurry up and pack your things, and we'll go to the imperial capital with Daddy later! ”
"Good!" Aman hurriedly got up, but he hugged a bunch of wooden toys. These toys were made for him by his father, and he loved them the most.
"What to do with these! It's a big time again! You can't take it, you just have to bring clothes! ”
"But ......"
"But what! You bring too many things, Brother Dazhi, they don't bring you! ”
"This ......" Aman was a little anxious all of a sudden, he wanted to put it down but was reluctant, and suddenly the urge to urinate came up, so he was so anxious that he clamped his legs and hurriedly looked for the night pot.
Shuangxi glanced at him complainingly, and hurriedly moved to help him collect a few sets of newly made clothes.
At breakfast, Tian Xiongguang said that he was going to the imperial capital, and Shuangxi and Man'er also shouted to go, but they were reprimanded by Tian Xiongguang, and finally the two ran back to the room with tears in their eyes.
Before Tian Xiong left, he went up to the second floor, and the two sisters and brothers kept themselves in the room, and they couldn't open the door no matter how much he knocked. In desperation, Tian Xiongguang could only follow the people of the Changfeng Dart Bureau and left first.
After sending Tian Xiongguang away, Li went up to the second floor sadly, knocked on the door a few times, persuaded a few words, and heard that something was not quite right inside, and after pushing the door open, he saw that there was no one inside!
Oh no, this sister and brother thought they secretly ran away!
Li was frightened and anxious, and hurriedly turned his legs and ran downstairs, but until it was dark, the remaining guys in the dart game found outside the county, and there was no trace of the sister and brother.
Li wiped his tears, only hoping that the sister and brother were chasing Tian Xiongguang, and they would not be abducted by the trafficker. After being abducted, it's okay if you can adopt it to a big family, even if it's a slave or a maid, don't sell it to any other place, especially if you like a girl.
On this day, Li stayed up all night.
Three miles outside Baoying County, Aman and Xi'er were eating fragrant meat buns in the carriage. Xi'er was a little worried, and took a bite and asked Aman, "You said that we won't be worried if we leave like this, right?" ”
"No, it won't." Aman looked at a simple-looking man in the carriage again, "Uncle Quan, didn't you say that you sent someone to talk to my mother?" ”
"Of course." The man who was called Uncle Quan smiled, "Don't worry. ”
As he was talking, someone from outside the carriage followed, riding a horse outside the carriage and saying: "I told your mother, your mother scolded you, I guess you will be beaten when you go back." ”
"Isn't it?" Shuangxi and Man'er seemed to see the slender leafless willow branches raise an arc, and then fell down with a "snap", and the two of them only felt that their buttocks were throbbing for a while.
"So, you better stay outside for a while," Uncle Quan said with a smile, "When your motherly anger is gone, and she misses you, you go back and make sure she doesn't beat you." ”
"That's right." Shuangxi nodded, and asked, "Did our brother really earn a lot of money from you?" ”
"Of course. Let me tell you, the shopkeeper of Daifuku has opened many flower teahouses in the imperial capital, each of which is several times larger than your current teahouse! Uncle Quan smiled, and urged the chubby man who was driving the car outside: "Hurry up!" Otherwise, it won't be able to catch up with the inn after dark. ”
"Got it!" The chubby man answered, and quickened his whip again. It's really nowhere to find the iron shoes, but I didn't expect the two sisters and brothers to send them to the door by themselves, which saved them a lot of effort.
Imperial capital, right prime minister's mansion.
Tao Zhimo brooded his cheeks in boredom. This time, it was so boring that she didn't have the heart to develop flower tea. She couldn't get involved in the affairs of the Flower Teahouse at all, someone had done everything, and she couldn't go out of the house openly. It's been nearly a month since the last time I entered the palace, and now, no one in the house dares to trouble her, and those maids are sincerely scared when they see her.
In the market, although those people hate her so much, they all say that she, a white-eyed wolf, has the life of a princess, and she can't become Princess Yong, but Princess Loulan.
Bah! Can legends be believed? In her previous life, she was reduced to a cheap concubine, and finally died ......
Tao Zhimo touched his stomach again, one corpse and two lives in his previous life. If she hadn't heard the news of Ananda's suicide at that time, she might not have been so desperate. That's her child, how can she do it?
Without Ananda, she must not have been able to give birth to that child in the house. Rather than waiting for the child to be a month old and then lose it, it is better to ...... Take advantage of it......
Tao Zhimo closed his eyes, not wanting to think about it again.
In her life, she really wants to find Nangong Ci to make up for her previous regrets. She wanted to give him a baby. Wait, how could she have such a shameful idea! Tao Zhimo suddenly went crazy again.
But Nangong Ci, she tried her best to see him, but he always tried his best to avoid her, as if she was hiding like a plague.
"Miss," Butterfly's voice interrupted her train of thought, "you haven't replied to the second master yet." "The last time I received a letter from the second master was half a month ago, and in the past, she would reply on the same day she received the letter, and at most it would be delayed until the next day. But this time, I saw that she didn't write a word after lifting the pen several times.
Today I received a flying pigeon from the second master, and I was urging her to reply......
"I ......," Tao Zhimo hesitated, "I don't have anything to say to you two masters." Tao Zhimo scratched her head, if she had to write, she could only write something about the flower teahouse with him, and she didn't want to talk to him more about private matters. Every time she finishes writing a letter, she always looks forward to his reply, and when she receives the letter, she is overjoyed, as if she has received a love letter. She couldn't go on like this. So much so that she didn't even want to see Mo Qimiao, and when she saw Mo Qimiao, it seemed that she had seen Mo Wangnan, and she always wanted to hug it.
Butterfly pursed her lips and took out a few ledgers in her arms, "This is this month, Miss, you can report this month's profit with the second master." "For this account book, several bookkeepers in the flower teahouse were tired and rushed out all night.
"It came out so soon." Tao Zhimo took it and flipped through it, she remembered that the account book was only released for fifteen or sixteen, and it was only thirteen today.
"Well, it's coming out early this month." Butterfly smiled.
When Tao Zhimo saw it, his eyes suddenly widened as big as copper bells, and he sent someone to jump up, "Seven hundred taels!" The four shops actually made a net profit of 700 taels! "If she remembers correctly, didn't she only earn more than 100 taels last month?
"Miss, it was newly opened last month, and business is not very good. This month, all I earned was the silver of repeat customers. ”
Tao Zhimo "tsk" praised non-stop, "I didn't expect it to be so easy to make money in this imperial capital!" ”
"Miss, low-key, low-key." Butterfly hurriedly reminded.
"Okay." Tao Zhimo smiled from ear to ear, holding the account book happily.
Luo Yaosito outside the window said, "Cai Wei, you won't really earn seven hundred taels, right?" ”
"How is that possible? If the newly opened shops really make so much money, the government has long been eyeing it, and the profit this month is one hundred and fifty taels! "It's just that deducting their secret manpower and material resources is actually not a loss or a gain. However, seeing the young lady so happy, even if it is a loss, it is worth it.
"By the way, miss," Butterfly said in a low voice, "something has happened in the palace lately. ”
"What's the matter?" Tao Zhimo immediately became alert, she still had some taboos when she mentioned the palace now.
Butterfly seemed to hesitate a little, "It's a long story. ”
"Well, then you can talk slowly one by one." Tao Zhimo pulled her to sit down.
Butterfly hesitated for a moment and began to come one by one, "Half a month ago, the cat of the ninth princess poisoned someone, and later it was found out that it was the seventh princess. ”
"Seven princesses? What does she do with poison cats? Tao Zhimo was surprised.
"I heard that she was angry that she fell into the water last time, and then, I also found out that she framed you for the Qianqiu Festival, and she ordered the palace maid to secretly stuff the cat powder-dyed handkerchief under your table when she served the food."
"It's her!" Tao Zhimo slapped the table and said indignantly, "I know! And what about her now! "There must be some retribution for framing her like this.
"The matter was handled by the Empress, who grounded her for three months."
Seeing Tao Zhimo's indignant face, Butterfly smiled slightly, "In addition, because of Concubine Rong's lax discipline, the Empress Dowager demoted her from a concubine to a concubine. But later, there was some trouble, saying that when Concubine Rong was the fourth concubine of the Emperor Taishang before, she had drugged Concubine Yan because of the competition for favor, so that Concubine Yan had no heirs in her life, and the Queen Mother was angry and demoted her to Concubine Rong. ”
"Concubine?" Tao Zhimo didn't know much about these respects and humilities in the palace, and seeing this, Butterfly analyzed again: "The concubine is the second grade, and the concubine is the fourth grade." And after the events of the Thousand Autumn Festival, the seventh princess has formed a bond with the ninth princess, and she has also gained a bad reputation. Later, the Empress Dowager ordered that the mother and daughter be expelled from the Jade Palace, and now their status in the palace is not as good as before. ”
"Retribution!" Tao Zhimo instantly felt very happy, this seventh princess has been rude and willful since she was a child, and she is invincible in the harem, and she even walked sideways, but she didn't expect to have today's end.
"But, miss, that was seven days ago. I don't know if I should tell Miss about what happened later. Butterflies said with a look of embarrassment, what happened later was beyond their budget.
"Say it quickly!" Tao Zhimo was addicted to hearing this, and hurriedly asked.
"This happened a few days ago. On the tenth day of the seventh month, when the palace people were rectifying the Jade Palace, they rescued a dying eunuch from the dark room in the palace. ”
