Chapter 5: It turns out that the prime minister's mental state is problematic
Ink Dye chased after him: "Can you slow down?" Bullying me for short legs? Mo Ran finally caught up, and also arrived at the Drunken Immortal Building, the two entered the building together, and Xiao Er immediately greeted: "Qin Gongzi, Qin Shangshu is already waiting in the room, and the meal has been prepared." Qin Zhongqing nodded, and Mo Ran followed Qin Zhongqing upstairs.
After pushing the door in, Qin Zhongqing found that his father was waiting for him, and immediately walked in: "Father, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
"It's okay, it's okay, sit down and eat." Qin He motioned for Qin Zhongqing to sit down, and after Qin Zhongqing sat down, "Qingyan girl, right?" Ink Dye nodded.
"I remember that the top card of the Red Man Fang is called Red Girl, how did you become you?" Qin He stared at Mo Ran and asked.
"Back to Qin Shangshu, the little girl only became the top card yesterday, and she was chosen in a challenging way." Mo Dye answered truthfully, respectfully.
"Oh? It seems that the girl has something very outstanding, so she might as well come and help out. Qin He looked thoughtfully at his son, and then at the ink dyeing.
"Father, Mo Ran is from Qingliangmen, and this time she went down the mountain to experience as a woman in the Qinglou, so I took her to meet my father today." Qin Zhongqing whispered to Qin He.
When Qin He heard that it was from Qingliangmen, he was immediately shocked: "Are you sure?"
Qin Zhongqing nodded seriously.
"Since the girl's identity is special, I won't embarrass you, you can find Su Zhi if you have any needs in the future, and the girl will also sit down to eat." Qin He heard Mo Ran's stomach growling, and Mo Ran sat down very embarrassed, what Qin Zhongqing said just now Mo Ran had already heard.
"Thank you Qin Shangshu, Qin Gongzi, please don't spread this matter of ink dyeing down the mountain to practice." Mo Ran pretended to be very sincere and looked at Qin He.
Qin He laughed: "No problem, no problem, Su Zhi said that being a father knows how to do it, are you called Mo Ran or Qing Yan?"
"Ink dyeing is the name given by the head of Qingliangmen, Qingyan is the name used by Qinglou, you can call me ink dyeing when there is no one, and it is better to call me Qingyan when there are outsiders." Mo Dye said slowly, hoping that Qin He could hear it clearly, this was Mo Dye's intention.
"Okay, the official knows, let's start eating." Qin He nodded, and after launching the command, Mo Dye couldn't wait.
Half an hour later, after the three of them had eaten and drunk enough: "Suzhi, wait a minute, you send the ink dyeing girl back to the Red Man Workshop, and go back to the house for your father first." After Qin He finished speaking, he stood up and left.
"Father walks slowly." Qin Zhongqing said a word in the back.
At this time, Mo Ran thought that Qin He had mentioned Qi Qiong just now, and also mentioned 3 million taels, and also mentioned shops, so he asked Qin Zhongqing: "...... Gongzi Qin?"
"Huh? Didn't you say it's called 'Suzhi'! Qin Zhongqing said a little angrily.
"Okay, Suzhi, just now my uncle said that the shop is 3 million taels, do you want to buy the shop with 3 million taels?"
"You sat so close and didn't hear my father clearly, and you are also talented. What my father said was that the Qi family also had a talent (Qin Zhongqing looked at the ink dye with interest, and the ink dye immediately understood what it meant and said: I am willing to be a talent, Qin Zhongqing smiled), and then said, ah, this talent is called Qi Qiong, and he spent 3 million taels to buy a shop, do you say this person is stupid? Qin Zhongqing didn't understand what this brother was thinking.
"So that's what it means, so is this Qi Qiong really having a problem with his brain or is it ......" Mo Ran took the opportunity to ask Qi Qiong, this is the purpose.
"I've never heard of Qi Qiong's brain problem before, this matter is also very sudden, my father mainly asked me to investigate what is in this shop, can it be worth so much money?" Qin Zhongqing said thoughtfully.
"The surname is Qi, and you are related to Qi Xiao? That shouldn't be checked by Qi Xiao, how did it become that you checked? Ink dye pretended not to understand.
"Let Qi Xiao check? Then you have to find out the Year of the Monkey, Ma Yue, this kid won't grow up......" Qin Zhongqing shook his head when he thought of Qi Xiao's appearance.
"It's okay, it's okay, Qi Xiao will have smooth sailing in the future with you as a good friend. Let's go? "Ink Dye has learned what he wants to know, this should be over, it's time to go back and make plans.
The two walked to the Red Man Square, which had not yet opened.
"Qin ...... Suzhi, go back, I'm going to pack up and open up! Ink Dye laughed.
"Are you sure you want to stay at the Red Man Shop? Why don't I pay for you? Qin Zhongqing really felt that the girl in front of him was different from the eldest lady of the official eunuch family or the palace nobles he had seen before, and she could attract herself by showing it at will, and she felt that she was about to be hopeless.
"No, no, no, it's good for me to stay here, don't bother, go back quickly, uncle is still waiting for you to go back?" Ink dyeing tries not to show eagerness.
Qin Zhongqing nodded, turned around and went home.
Mo Dye did not go back to the Red Man Workshop, but went to the tailor shop and made a lot of clothes, all in order to hide people's eyes, because there were two sets of night clothes among the many clothes, and it was suddenly spent many times the money to ask the store not to be exposed, and then returned to the Red Man Fang, at this time the Red Man Fang had already opened, and when I arrived at the door, I heard my mother shouting: "Qingyan, where are you going?" Scared the hell out of me, I thought ......"
Mo Ran interrupted without listening to his mother: "Mom, why do you think I'm not coming back?" No, Mom, I want to earn money for a house here, now I can't move an inch without money, by the way, Mom, Mom didn't give me the money yesterday, I made a few clothes to trouble Mom to help me clear it, just go out to the east of the Wang Ji tailor shop! This is not a question but an exclamation, and it doesn't matter whether my mother agrees or not, after saying that, Mo Ran walked upstairs: "By the way, Mom, yesterday's violinist please inform me and come to my room."
Mom shook her head helplessly, she really fell into this girl for a few lifetimes.
Mo Ran returned to the room and sat in front of the dresser and was writing a flow chart: get the clothes tomorrow night, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, prepare for the day after tomorrow, prepare for the ancestor worship ceremony, and 3 days later will be the end of Qi Qiong.
After Mo Ran finished writing, he was thinking: 'This Qi Qiong is a small person in the Prime Minister's Mansion, why do you want to kill him?' Wouldn't it be better to make a big move and kill an official? But killing Qi Qiong is still a piece of cake. ’
On the second day, Mo Ran woke up almost past noon, and when he got up, he couldn't get hungry, so he picked up the snacks on the table and filled them into his mouth, and choked after eating three of them: "No, I'm going out to eat."
Mo Ran knocked on the door of his mother's room, but there was no movement, he knocked again, but there was still no movement, so he pushed the door and entered, and saw that his mother was still sleeping, so he walked to the bed, and his mother felt that someone was there, and suddenly opened her eyes: "Qingyan, why are you here?" You're going to scare me to death! ”
"Mom, it's not that I'm trying to scare you, I knocked on the door and you didn't answer me and came in." Ink Dye looked at his mother very innocently.
"So early, what's wrong with you?" Mom asked, sitting up.
"Mom, did you pay off the money for making clothes yesterday?" Mo Ran counted his fingers: "Well, it's just 10 pieces of clothing, I'll go get two of them and wear them later." Ink Dye nodded affirmatively to his mother.
"I said, why do you need 170 taels of silver, you make 10 sets of clothes, can you wear them?" Mom glared at Mo Ran very angrily, patted Mo Ran's arm and motioned for Mo Ran to give up her place and let her get out of bed.
"It's only 170 taels, and the gold given by the son yesterday can buy more than 100 sets, right?" Mo Ran said and walked to the dresser: "Then Mom, give me what I deserved yesterday, I'm going to eat." Ink Dye put his hand in front of his mother and bent down to look at his mother in the mirror.
"I really obeyed you, 100 taels of gold minus 170 taels of silver, and 830 taels, the girl takes 3 percent, I take 7 percent, this is the rule, don't you break the rules?" Mom expected that Mo Dye must feel that the money was small, so she explained the rules clearly, and then took a small bag from the small box on the dresser: "Oh, this bag is 260 taels, give you 10 taels more, take it." Mom put the bag in Inkzen's hand.
"Thank you, Mom, I'm going to eat something delicious!" Mo Ran took the silver and jumped out.
"This is still a child, why is his temper so repetitive?" Mom shook her head at the jumping ink dye and continued to make up.
Mo Ran didn't go to any big restaurants or restaurants, but found the most remote noodle stall in the capital, where there were many beggars, she found a little beggar: "I invite you to eat a bowl of noodles, how about you answer me a few questions?" The little beggar ignored the ink dye at first, but then the ink dye said, "You just need to answer my question and eat a few bowls." The little beggar agreed.
Mo Ran pulled the little beggar to sit at the noodle stall: "Boss, serve 3 bowls of noodles first." Then he looked at the little beggar: "What's your name?"
"My name is Koi." The little beggar replied very seriously.
"Oh, Xiaojing, let me ask you who you know when you are an official of the court?" Mo Ran touched his face with his hands, moved to Koi's side, and asked in a low voice.
"Sister, then you can ask the right person, I know all the big officials of the dynasty, some time ago there was a big brother who gave me and my friends money to let us squat in various officials' mansions and report the itinerary, but it has been several days that the big brother has not come again." Koi was excited at first, but then he was a little disappointed.
"Can you tell my sister about the situation in Prime Minister Qi's mansion? Including the people inside and the things done. Ink Dye took out a handkerchief and wiped Koi's dirty face and hands, and then put the handkerchief in Koi's hand. At this time, he was on the table, pointed to the small well and said, "Talk while eating"
Xiaojing nodded, and the chopsticks were a big mouthful, and then he couldn't chew it.
"You eat slowly, and no one robs you, drink some soup." Ink said as he patted Koi's back.
Xiaojing finally swallowed: "Prime Minister Qi goes out every day on the fifth watch of the morning court, and returns to the house after the morning court, we don't know much about the situation in the house, but after noon, he will kneel down in front of a cemetery in the suburbs, every day, and every time he recites words, Xiaomi said that he heard the prime minister say that you don't come to me again, I have been deserved, like this, basically every day, about an hour in front of the grave, because I can't read and don't know what is written on the tombstone." After saying that, Xiaojing ate a few more mouthfuls of noodles, drank all the soup, and licked it.
"It turns out that the prime minister's mental condition is not good!" Ink Dye nodded, and ate his mouth.
