Chapter 30 Yujue's Cash
Chi Yingchu didn't find anything in the house, Lu Yuanbai didn't help, and he was still watching a good show on the side, asking her not to wronged anyone.
He asks for so much, why don't you see him doing it himself?
In desperation, she had to go out of the house to check the pharmacy, if it was really like what Liu Yuezhi said, the medicine should have been bought on the same day.
Asking for the location of the pharmacy from Liu Yuezhi, she rushed over without hesitation and saw someone in the city looking for someone with a portrait.
"Have you ever seen this woman ...... pictured?"
Chi Yingchu subconsciously turned around to dodge, someone patted her from behind, and she saw the portrait in his hand in her spare eye.
The guard asked coldly, "Have you seen it, what are you grinding, dumb?"
"Woo-ah......" she pretended to speak inarticulately, and the guards left her behind.
"It turned out to be a stammer. ”
Chi Yingchu breathed a sigh of relief, secretly clenched her palms, and now she rushed to see the emperor, she would only startle the snake, and besides, she and the prince were not all the way.
When she arrived at the pharmacy, the owner of the pharmacy was about to pack up her things and close the door, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "A few days ago, the maid of the second aunt of the Four Princes Mansion came to buy a medicine, called saffron?"
"Yes. The proprietor of the pharmacy was quick to admit it.
"Has anyone else ever bought it?"
Hearing this, the owner's gaze at her suddenly became hesitant, and his eyes dodged and pushed her away: "Don't delay me going back, the pharmacy won't be open today." ”
"I'm just asking, and I won't delay you for long. Seeing this, she felt suspicious, thought about it and asked in a different way, "Then I want to buy saffron, how much do you have here?"
"It's gone. The proprietor didn't dare to look at her anymore.
When Chi Ying first heard this, she felt more and more that he was acting abnormally, he crossed her and wanted to leave, she grabbed him with one hand: "Didn't you say that it was in stock a few days ago? Why is it so soon gone, who bought it?"
"I don't have it here, you continue to buy it elsewhere, what are you doing with so many questions?" The owner wanted to struggle, but her strength was not as weak as it seemed.
"I won't tell you anything, someone in the house has a miscarriage, it was caused by saffron, the prince ordered me to find out, you said you don't explain, don't wait for the prince to find you in person. ”
The owner thought of Lu Yuanbai, where could he afford to provoke this, and immediately said it clearly:
"As soon as the second aunt's maid left on the front foot, someone bought the remaining saffron on the back foot, and claimed to be from the Four Princes' Mansion. ”
Chi Yingchu's eyes lit up, and she continued to ask: "Who is that person, if we meet again, can you still recognize it again?"
"It should be possible, quite a beautiful little girl......"
She took the owner of the pharmacy back to the Four Princes' Mansion, the latter was about to refuse at first, but she threatened to send the official to her, and asked Lu Yuanbai to summon all the maids.
Zhao Lique was extremely reluctant to bask under the sun, frowning fiercely: "You can really find out, then it's okay to say, if it's just perfunctory, it will take a lot of effort, don't blame me for not letting you go." ”
"Just wait and see. Chi Yingchu's face did not change, and asked the owner of the pharmacy to go to the maid to recognize people.
Lu Yuanbai glanced at her faintly, and the corners of his mouth pursed a smile: "It's better not for you to find someone casually to perfunctory this king." ”
"The second aunt is also coming soon, let her explain to you in person later. Chi Yingchu was too lazy to speak, he thought she really wanted to take care of his backyard!
In the end, the owner of the pharmacy stopped in the maid behind Zhao Lique, and pointed his hand at the other party, and the other party knelt down tremblingly in fright.
"That's her. ”
Zhao Lique looked over and looked shocked: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Liu Yuezhi's voice came from not far away: "Is he talking nonsense, or do you not hesitate to frame the child with a frame?"
"You!"
"Lord Wang, here's how it is......" Liu Yuezhi ignored her existence and took the initiative to tell everything in front of Lu Yuanbai.
"Of course, the concubine is at fault, the fault is that she shouldn't be bothered with, but she will never be angry with a child, the concubine can't be pregnant, it doesn't mean that the concubine doesn't like children, and it is a big mistake for her to be pampered and arrogant. ”
Zhao Lique's face changed anxiously, but Lu Yuanbai ignored her, and instead said to Liu Yuezhi: "What you said is reasonable. ”
"Then what is the prince going to do with that maid?" Liu Yuezhi was overjoyed.
"Leave it to her to deal with herself, after all, she has no children, your grounding is lifted, and this month is double. Lu Yuanbai brushed his sleeves and left.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Even for such a result, Liu Yuezhi was still very happy, and let the doctor go away.
Zhao Lique was so angry that she almost turned her back on it, the child she thought about in her heart didn't expect to be destroyed in the hands of her maid, how could she not hate?
"You eat things outside the inside......" A slap sounded on the maid's face, and after Liu Yuezhi left, Chi Yingchu didn't stay much.
Later, the maid was never seen again, some said that she was kicked out of the house at that time, and some said that Zhao Lique secretly disposed of her.
Chi Yingchu waited for a few days, and saw that Liu Yuezhi didn't come to find her meaning, so she simply took the initiative to go over: "What the second aunt said last time, shouldn't it be fulfilled?"
Liu Yuezhi's face was ruddy, and she picked up the teacup and took a sip: "I remember everything, as long as I promise you, I will naturally not go back on my word." ”
"The day after tomorrow, I will go out of the house to buy fat powder, and I will take you out at that time, I know the owner of a pawn shop in Shangjing, and the price is fair. ”
Chi Yingchu got a satisfactory answer before going back, if the ten or so pieces of jade Jue were realized, he could get at least 100,000 taels of silver.
Before I entered the house, I saw a maid come out recklessly, and she stepped forward to stop: "Which yard are you from?"
"I, I'm ......" the maid couldn't explain, pushed her away and ran.
Chi Yingchu went in to check and found that there was nothing missing, so she didn't care about it anymore, and early the next morning, she got into the wooden box behind the carriage first.
The coachman took the reins, and Lu Yuanbai walked out of the palace: "Wait." ”
Liu Yuezhi showed surprise on her face: "Lord Wang?"
Lu Yuanbai didn't answer her, his eyes swept over the red lacquered wooden box, his fingers were on it and he whispered, and Chi Yingchu in the box held his breath and didn't dare to move.
He suddenly laughed: "This king has nothing else to do, but he came to tell you, if you fancy something, just buy it, the silver is not enough for them to record it in the royal account." ”
Liu Yuezhi wanted him to accompany her, but Lu Yuanbai didn't mean this, and besides, Chi Yingchu was there, so she had to give up.
After leaving the palace's sight, Chi Yingchu had a chance to come out of the box and breathe heavily: "It's suffocating me." ”
"Actually, the palace doesn't worry about food and clothing, what do you want so much silver for?"
"Money can make ghosts grind, and if I have silver, my heart will be steady. When he arrived at the pawn shop, Chi Yingchu walked in with a wooden box.
Liu Yuezhi was in front, and the pawn shop owner quickly came out, and she opened her mouth to explain: "I have a friend who wants to pawn. ”
Chi Yingchu opened the wooden box, which contained more than a dozen pieces of jade, all of which were from Zhao Lique, and some of them should have been rewarded by the prince.
But the boss looked at it for a long time, but his face became more and more solemn, and he said thoughtfully: "These are not real jade, and they are not worth much silver." ”
Liu Yuezhi suddenly felt embarrassed, turned around and left without saying a word, and Chi Yingchu apologized before leaving.
She thought of the sneaky maid the day before...... Is this jade fake, or has someone dropped it?
