Chapter 80: The Liu family goes bankrupt
Li Qiuchi smiled and said nothing, Chen Shangshu only regarded her as a tacit, and immediately respected her, "The crown princess is really young and promising, and the minister will report to the emperor tomorrow about the purchase of property." ”
She felt a little hot, so she took a sip of the juice and played with the wine glass, "What about the Liu family?" ”
Chen Shangshu hurriedly smiled: "I will also report to the emperor." ”
Li Qiuchi raised his lips with satisfaction, "When the time comes, please also ask Chen Shangshu to cooperate with me." Thinking of Liu's angry appearance after hearing the news, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After the two filmed, Chen Shangshu said goodbye to the two old men, and immediately took a carriage back to the capital with Li Qiuchi, knocking on the door of the Chaoyang Marquis' Mansion.
The guard outside the door saw that it was Li Qiuchi, and immediately saluted and opened the door for her.
The two walked in unimpeded, and then Li Xingzhao and Liu Shi also greeted them, and they all looked happy when they saw Li Qiuchi.
"Qiu'er, why did you come back? Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also coming? Li Xingzhao held her hand, and glanced behind him from time to time, but found that there was no Chu Jinrong behind him, but Chen Shangshu followed behind Li Qiuchi.
Li Qiuchi tugged at the corners of his mouth, do these people like to shake hands so much? She slowly withdrew her hand, and her voice was flat: "Father doesn't need to look for it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't come." ”
He stopped looking, and the gaze that fell on Chen Shangshu suddenly became confused, "What's wrong with Chen Shangshu?" ”
Hearing this, Liu's eyes widened, and she looked at Chen Shangshu behind Li Qiuchi, and her heart suddenly became uneasy. She asked Chen Shangshu with her eyes, but Chen Shangshu directly avoided her, her heart sank, she wrung the handkerchief in her hand, and her heart was even more panicked.
Chen Shangshu smiled heartily, "Marquis Fuyang, long time no see." ”
Li Qiuchi chuckled, "Father, Chen Shangshu was met when I happened to pass by on the road, so I invited him to come to the house for dinner, presumably my father won't mind, right?" ”
Although Li Xingzhao was still confused in his heart, he smiled indifferently on his face: "Welcome." ”
Liu Shi reluctantly pulled a smile: "Qiu'er, how did you meet Chen Shangshu?" ”
Li Qiuchi hooked his lips quietly, "Auntie, have you forgotten?" My father has a very good relationship with Chen Shangshu, and he just happened to come to visit his father today and go the same way with Qiu'er. It's not that Qiu'er specially came to invite her, so don't worry about it. ”
Her words were smug, and Liu's face turned even paler.
With this uneasy mood, Liu's meal also became sloppy, and after a few bites, he was in no mood to eat. Seeing Chen Shangshu and Li Xing talking happily, her eyes flashed with shadows, she didn't know what she was thinking, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.
After finishing the meal, Liu hurriedly went to find Chen Shangshu, at this time Chen Shangshu was still walking in the aisle, Liu's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly shouted: "Chen Shangshu stays!" ”
Chen Shangshu paused, he turned around, and looked at Liu Shi in feigned surprise, "I don't know what Madame is looking for me?" ”
Liu wiped the cold sweat on his head, and said with a forced smile: "It's okay, Chen Shangshu has free time today, come to catch up with our master?" ”
Chen Shangshu nodded, with a hearty smile, "I have been busy with government affairs a few days ago, and today the emperor gave me a rare day off, and I haven't seen your master for a long time, so I came here to catch up with him." He tilted his head and looked at Liu in confusion, "Madam, but what's wrong?" ”
Liu Shi waved his hand, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that when I saw the adult, I remembered that Qiu'er said that I wanted to see the account book with you before, I don't know if the adult knows?" As she spoke, her eyes were firmly fixed on Chen Shangshu, and her heart was raised.
"Ledger?" Chen Shangshu thought for a moment and looked at Liu Shi in confusion, "What ledger?" Madame, can you elaborate? ”
Liu's brows furrowed, and he looked up at Chen Shangshu suspiciously, "Don't you really know what account books your lord is?" ”
Chen Shangshu shook his head, "I've never heard you mention it. ”
Liu stared at the change in his expression, and found no flaws, so her heart was relaxed. She eased her expression and changed it to a smile: "It's okay, I bothered you a lot just now, I hope you will forgive me." ”
Chen Shangshu also smiled gently: "It's okay. ”
After Liu saw him leave, she patted her chest in horror, and the big stone in her heart finally fell, and slowly walked back to her attic.
Originally, she thought that this matter would pass like this, but she didn't expect that at night, Wang suddenly came to the door.
As soon as Wang entered the door, he took her hand and began to cry mournfully: "Menglan, our Liu family is bankrupt, all the properties are gone, bankrupt!" ”
Liu Shi didn't come back to her senses for a long time as if she had been struck by lightning, she held Wang's hand tightly, and she was so anxious that tears were about to come out, "Mother, tell me carefully, what's going on!" Our Liu family has a big business, why did it suddenly go bankrupt! ”
"Just half an hour ago, the government suddenly came to the door and sealed our Liu family!" Wang kept wiping away tears, and his voice was choked.
"Sealed?!" Liu's voice was raised, she suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked Wang: "What about our private property?" I remember that we did a lot of industries privately, so we couldn't have all of them blocked, right? ”
In Liu's expectant and anxious gaze, Wang shook his head, shattering Liu's last hope. Her voice was also trembling, "It's gone, it's all blocked by the government...... Our Liu family is all gone......"
"Official? How can it be a government? What the hell is going on? Mother, say it quickly! Our Liu family has a good job of stalling in the official mansion! Liu shook Wang's hand like crazy, thinking of her situation after Liu's ruin, her heart was even more desperate. Wang's eyes were also scattered, and he burst into tears in an instant.
Liu Shi sat weakly on the ground, suddenly thinking of what happened during the day, she got up suddenly, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and roared almost frantically outside: "Quick, invite Li Qiuchi over!" Whatever method you use, bring her over! As soon as possible! ”
The housekeeper inside was so frightened that he crawled out of the attic.
After a while, Jia Ding stood at the door tremblingly, "Madam, the crown princess, she has already returned to the East Palace." ”
Liu Shi completely collapsed, she threw out a vase fiercely, the sound of the ceramic breaking sounded violently, and she screamed, "Li Qiuchi!" ”
