Chapter 106: Hu Yunting helps Rui Niang

Back at dusk, after thinking about it, after tossing and turning all night, she got up before dawn. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After a simple freshening up, she called Shang Duan San to find Qi Yu. Fortunately, today just happened to be resting, Qi Yu didn't have to go to court, and when Duan San slipped into Qi Yu's room, Qi Yu was still sleeping.

Xi Cui was waiting for Duan San to bring Qi Yu over in the private room of the VIP building, looking out from the window of the private room, there were still very few people on the street at this time, and there were a few people who looked like vendors pushing the cart and walking slowly, and people greeted each other from time to time.

When Qi Yu came in, Xi Cui was looking downstairs in a daze.

"Why are you in such a hurry to find me?" Qi Yu closed the door and came in and sat opposite Xi Cui.

Xi Cui glanced back at him and closed the window just now. "Actually, it's not a hurry, it's just that I have something for you." Xi Cui said and took out the list that had been compiled before and gave it to Qi Yu, but his eyes were fixed on Qi Yu's face, not letting go of any details on his face.

Qi Yu took it casually, only glanced at it, and suddenly pressed the thing with both hands, looking at Xi Cui, "How can you have such a thing?" What are you doing now? ”

Xi Cui ignored him and only said, "You just need to answer whether I want it or not, and you don't care how things come about." ”

"Are you really willing to give it to me?" Qi Yu glanced down again, "Does Nangong Yufeng know?" ”

"If you want it, I'll give it to you. But you're going to do me a favor. After Xi Cui said this, he immediately added, "Of course, I want you to help with this, and it is definitely not in exchange for this." This favor is what I, Xi Cui, asked you to help with, I don't know ......"

"That means whether I want your things or not, you want me to do you this favor today, don't you?" Qi Yu smiled, "Xi Cui, you really have become a businessman, even I have to calculate." ”

"I'm asking you, not calculating. Today, even if you take my things and don't help, it's okay, as I said, things are not a condition for agreeing to help. Xi Cui paused, and then continued, "That's why I dare to make such a request to you, except for this matter that only you can do, and sooner or later you will have to come to this point." And most importantly, I hope that the last person to get to that point is you! ”

The smile on Qi Yu's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious face, "What do you say?" ”

"Take the king's place in their place." Six words, the words sounded in Qi Yu's ears like thunder, and Qi Yu couldn't help but touch his ears to make sure that he was not dreaming, and the scene in front of him was real.

Seeing the suspicion on his face, Xi Cui continued, "I'll help you." Yinzi, I can prepare whatever you want, and I can also persuade Yu Feng to give up the Wang family and cooperate with you, but there is one thing you have to do by yourself, so that you can have enough bargaining chips to talk to those people. ”

"What's the matter?" Knowing Xi Cui for so many years, Qi Yu knows that Xi Cui never speaks falsely, since she dares to say such things today and prescribe such conditions, then she must have thought of a later move. He was willing to believe what Xi Cui, who once had nothing, let alone the current Xi Cui. Think about it, although he and Xi Cui are no longer destined to be together in this life, at least he also wants to be what Xi Cui wants to be.

"Completely destroy the relationship between the emperor and the Lao family, and weaken the power of the Lao family. I hope that in the end, the Lao family will be defeated in your hands...... "Only in this way will the Wang family have no chance to turn over, and only when the Wang family withdraws from this bizarre circle, can Yun Ting really live a good life...... As for the Nangong family, she will find another way when the time comes.

Since the old lady of the Wang family can tell the secret about Xi Cui to the third prince, at least it means that she has not stopped there, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, the old lady will not give up any opportunity to strengthen the Wang family, and Xi Cui can only completely block the road of the Wang family for Yun Ting......

Leeway...... Before finding a way out for herself, she had to pave Yun Ting's way first.

Separated from Qi Yu, Xi Cui did not return to the twilight moon but wrote a letter to Wang Shangshu, asking Duan San to send it to the Wang family, and then she walked alone in the direction of the twilight moon return. The shopkeeper of the VIP building was not very relieved when he saw Xi Cui's appearance, so he asked someone to follow carefully all the way. It wasn't until Xi Cui met Nangong Yufeng and Princess Li that he returned to the VIP building with peace of mind.

It turned out that the Marquis of Pingnan would escort the Zhenyi Kingdom delegation in the southwest into Beijing, and this Zhenyi State was the country that was at war with the Great Xia Kingdom a few months ago, and Nangong Yufeng's earlier prestige was probably spread throughout the entire Zhenyi Kingdom, so the emperor handed over the matter of entertaining the Zhenyi Kingdom delegation to the Liwang Mansion to take over. Princess Li had to hurry out in person these days to buy some items and take a good rest up and down the mansion, so she couldn't lose Yufeng's reputation.

Seeing Xi Cui, the princess just found a helper, and took Yu Feng for a long time, this kid couldn't help at all, just complaining and shouting tired and annoying, but as soon as she saw Xi Cui, her eyes began to shine, and she immediately came to her senses. Although the princess was unhappy in her heart, she could only accept her fate, and said in her heart, since she was so busy with this matter, she would simply finish this matter and handle the marriage of these two, and Yufeng of the province would run back to the twilight moon in three days, and she, the mother concubine, would have to chase and intercept her son if she wanted to see her.

Xi Cui accompanied the princess to walk two streets, and saw that the princess seemed a little tired, so she persuaded her to go back to rest, and she would help to see the rest.

Although the princess was very happy in her heart, she still had a face on her face, nodded, and asked Yufeng to send her back. Nangong Yufeng looked at Xi Cui and wanted to stay, but was glared back by Xi Cui's eyes.

Duan San returned to the twilight moon and didn't see Xi Cui, thinking that something had happened to Xi Cui, so he found the VIP building, and then found Xi Cui in the Jinyi Pavilion. Lingxiang and Lixiang also came out, Xi Cui asked Duan San what Wang Shangshu said when he received the letter, Duan San shook his head, and said that Wang Shangshu only said one sentence to tell your girl, and the old man knew.

Xi Cui smiled, leaving Lingxiang to ask Duan San and Lixiang to go back first.

Xi Cui told Lingxiang about the palace, and asked Lingxiang to accompany him and continue to shop, Lingxiang smiled and said that she had no experience in this kind of thing, so it was better to ask Rui Niang, when Rui Niang went out today, she said that she would check the accounts in the shops on North Street, which is not far from North Street, and you can go over to find her.

The two chatted while shopping, and soon found Rui Niang, but she was not checking the accounts, but sitting alone in the inner room drinking tea, Huanxi was not around.

Xi Cui and the others went in and called several times before Rui Niang came back to her senses. asked her what was going on, but Rui Niang didn't say anything. After a while, Huan Huan came back, and when he entered the door, he seemed to be in a hurry to tell Rui Niang, and he saw that Xi Cui shut up.

Seeing them like this, Xi Cui was a little unhappy, but fortunately, Xiao Yi told Xi Cui that Rui Niang just saw that Xi Cui had been very busy recently, and she didn't want to worry about Xi Cui because of her own affairs, so she asked Huan Huanxi not to tell her about it. It may be that Huan Huanxi is a little too obvious, Rui Niang was afraid that Xi Cui would misunderstand, so she talked about the problems on the books of these shops on North Street, and wanted to use this to divert the topic.

didn't want Xi Cui to be uncooperative, so he didn't pay attention to Rui Niang's words at all, but ran to Huanhuan, took Huanhuan's hand, and looked at Huanhuan's eyes, "Huanhuan, I know that you are the most can't lie in our family, I will believe what you said, what happened to Rui Niang today?" Seeing Huanhuan asking Rui Niang for help, Xi Cui turned her face with both hands and forced her to face herself, "Look at what she is doing, look at me and say...... If you are not honest, I will tell the third brother that you and Rui Niang and they will exclude me! ”

"Hey, you ...... how can you do that?" Huanhuan's eyes rolled quickly, thinking of Duan San's madness towards herself, Huanhuan's heart trembled for a while, but Rui Niang said......

Seeing that Xi Cui refused to give up, even Duan San moved out to threaten Huanhuan, Rui Niang didn't want Huanhuan to be too embarrassed, so she said helplessly, "Okay, don't force her, I'll just tell you no......"

As soon as Xi Cui heard this, she immediately let go of Huanhuan and sat down in front of Rui Niang, "Say it earlier, I actually like Huanhuan a lot, and I don't want to embarrass her at all!" ”

Huanhuan gave her a slap in the face after hearing this, and then stood aside silently.

It turned out that Rui Niang met her father before when she checked the accounts today, and then the Yang family's property was occupied by her uncle and aunt and followed an old shopkeeper of them, although the old man did not recognize Rui Niang, but was asked about the Yang family was quite excited, and he learned from his mouth that her uncle and aunt embezzled her father's property and killed her brother, I don't know whether I was uneasy or I knew that I was not able to run the Yang family's business, so I sold all those shops and houses, and donated a small official to her uncle, and has never appeared in the capital since. The business of the Yang family's shops has been worse for a year, and now they have changed several owners, but they have not improved. Rui Niang actually wanted to take back those things that originally belonged to her, but she had been busy helping Xi Cui deal with her side of the matter during this time, and she didn't have so much energy to involve the Yang family's affairs. But when I met the old shopkeeper today, I got the news that her uncle had married his own daughter to a wealthy merchant surnamed Ma in the capital.

Huan Huan Xi just went out to inquire about this matter, and the result was indeed the same. And it was Rui Niang's cousin who did it herself, saying that she wanted to take back her ancestral business. It is said that because those shops are now in the hands of different people, Yang has given posts to several bosses, as if they have set up a banquet in the VIP building three days later. It stands to reason that with the Ma family's financial resources, they don't have such great courage, and it is rumored that Yang's father and mother seem to be about to be promoted to Beijing, which fuels the Yang family's arrogance.

Oh, so that's what happened. Xi Cui thought about it after hearing this, and suddenly a thought flashed in her mind, she smiled and took Rui Niang's hand, "Since you have long wanted to get your things back, why didn't you tell me earlier, if you had said it earlier, there would have been no such trouble." But it's not too late, I've already thought of a way, since you've delayed your own business because of my business, then you don't care about these things for the time being, I promise to get them all back for you! ”

The gloom on Rui Niang's face suddenly dissipated, and she shook Xi Cui's hand in surprise, "What you said is true!" I know you've always done what you say, but I still want you to give me a definite answer on this matter, because it's important to me! ”

"You can rest assured......" Xi Cui stood up and patted her on the shoulder, "What about you, do whatever you have to do, I may not be as good as you in business acumen, but when it comes to dealing with villains, I am not on the same level as you." ”

Rui Niang believes this. Hearing her say this, Rui Niang smiled and didn't speak again.

Only then did Xi Cui remember what she wanted to do for the princess, so she whispered a few words in Rui Niang's ear, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Next, Xi Cui took Lingxiang to the Liwang Mansion, and there seemed to be guests in the house, and when he saw Xi Cui's several ladies, he said a few polite words. It turned out that these few people were all ministers who had a good relationship with the Liwang Mansion, and when they heard that the Liwang Mansion was ordered to handle the reception of the Zhenyi State Mission, they thought about coming over to see if the princess needed help.

Several of them were elders, Xi Cui was not in a hurry to speak, but waited for a few of them to finish speaking, and she was the last to stand up, "Princess, in my opinion, we can't arrange the mission in the palace, it's best to find a good size and decorated mansion in a good place in the capital." First, after all, the people who come are people from other countries, and their behavior and habits, clothing, and diet must be different from us in many aspects. Although the palace is dignified and magnificent, there are many people in the end, and friction is easy to occur if one is not careful. Once there is a little problem, it may become a handle for others to say about us in the future, but it is not good. But it is different to place them outside the house, there are not so many rules, the people of the mission are relatively free and relaxed, we only need to provide the necessary manpower to help them understand the customs and eating habits of our side, so that they can feel our full respect at the same time, and more appreciate the cordial care given by our most landlords. And in this way, it will be more convenient for us to choose to take care of their subordinates, we only need to strictly select some people who are familiar with the customs of Zhenyi country, unlike most of the people who serve in the palace are old people who are not easy to arrange. In this way, the contradiction can be minimized, what does the princess think? ”

Xi Cui's words were said by several people present who nodded frequently, and the princess was naturally satisfied.

Seeing that the princess nodded, Xi Cui continued, "In this case, this matter will be handed over to Xi Cui to ensure that the princess is satisfied." ”

Hearing Xi Cui say this, several people present were shocked and cast envious glances at the princess. The implication is that the princess is really lucky, and this daughter-in-law has already been able to help the princess do such a big thing before she has passed the door, and they don't know when they will really let go of the burden of the family and enjoy the blessings.

The princess naturally felt everyone's gaze, and for a while she became proud, looking at Xi Cui more and more pleasing to the eye, and said with a smile, "Okay, since you say so, then go and try, if you have any problems, come to the palace to find me." ”

"Xi Cui understands......" Xi Cui said and slowly withdrew.

After Xi Cui left, several ladies began to talk about it, but most of them persuaded the princess to hurry up and handle the marriage between Yu Feng and Xi Cui. When I came to see Xi Cui today, I didn't have the imaginary little family spirit, and she was very measured in her words and actions, it was not easy for such a young child to do this part. Second, Yu Feng has been staying overnight in the twilight moon recently, and they have also heard about it, looking at today's appearance, the princess does not seem to look down on Xi Cui, even if she doesn't look down on the holy decree, she can't disobey it, since this is the case, she just did it early, and the others in the province said irresponsible things, after all, it was not good for the reputation of the palace. What they said was exactly what the princess was thinking, and she had been pondering it this morning. Now that these people are saying this, she is wondering if it is time to talk to Prince Li and Yu Feng.

Xi Cui left the palace and took Lingxiang to the Yang family's old house. Now the surname of the person who lives here is Zhao, and he is a scholarly family, and when he receives Xi Cui, it can be regarded as a courtesy. After Xi Cui explained his intentions, he asked the master's opinion, but the Zhao family immediately turned sad when he heard this. It turned out that their family also received a post from the Ma family's Yang family, and the post stated that the next post was Lord Yang of the Nine Cities Patrol who was about to take office. This is clearly forcing them to go, the purpose is nothing more than this mansion, Xi Cui came over today and wanted this mansion, and they Zhao family on both sides can't afford to provoke it, but after all, there is only one mansion.

Xi Cui didn't get angry after hearing this, she just smiled and identified herself, and said that she was willing to pay twice the price of the market price to buy it, and she would also help them deal with it on the Yang family's side, but the premise was that they moved immediately, if they couldn't find a suitable place to live for a while, Xi Cui could also give them another house, but they didn't dare to guarantee that it would be better than this house.

When the Zhao family heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. Although Xi Cui represents the Liwang Mansion, this condition does not mean to bully people at all, on the other hand, although the Yang family is not a big official, it is clear that they will not trade with them fairly. In this way, they naturally agreed to Xi Cui's request without even thinking about it. When they moved, there was not much movement, and in return, they even left some more elegant decorative objects, and the beauty of the yard was basically intact.

On the same day, Xi Cui took Rui Niang back to the house, led her around a few times, and told her that she planned to use this place as a residence to entertain the Zhenyi State Mission, and as soon as the mission left, she would return the cleaned up place to Rui Niang. It's just because this time I'm going to entertain the Zhenyi Mission, maybe many places in the garden have to be changed, but since this is Rui Niang's home, she doesn't plan to do it herself, how to change it will be handed over to Rui Niang herself, so that it will be more convenient to clean up when you go back.

Rui Niang was naturally so moved that she couldn't do it, so she almost hugged Xi Cui and cried bitterly, helping Xi Cui transform the garden was naturally not a problem.

However, Rui Niang has solved a matter on her mind, but Xi Cui's matter is not over yet. There are still a few shops next, and the first thing to figure out now is how this Lord Yang climbed to the position of Nine Cities Patrol. And can this thing be put to good use?

Of course, this matter is making a lot of noise, and it is obviously not good, it is too small to achieve the expected effect, even if it is to help Rui Niang get something, I am not happy! (To be continued.) )
