Chapter 48: Substitute Maid (20)
"Madam, you guessed it right, the food delivered from the big kitchen today was poisoned." Qiu Yue's face was iron blue.
She never thought that someone would actually put her hand here, if it weren't for the alertness of Madame, she would have been tricked.
"Sure enough." Xia Yan sighed, this is a common trick used by women in the backyard.
I don't know if Mrs. Ling did it, or the heroine did it.
"Go out and order a table of wine, let's eat together." Xia Yan waved his hand, since the big kitchen is unreliable, forget it.
Anyway, she has money now, and she can't spend it every day to buy and eat.
It's just a pity that her money in the early stage was just a number, and it was all taken away by Mo Yan for disaster relief.
The emperor fiddled with the glass tea set, watching the tea leaves spread out in the transparent cup, and his mood was much better.
"Fourth, I'm still a little clever." The emperor smiled slightly, turned his head to Wu Yong and said.
"King Lijun is very good." Wu Yong had a smile on his face, and bent down to echo the emperor's words.
The emperor nodded, coughed twice, and then sighed in a low voice: "It's a pity that you are still young!" ”
Wu Yong lowered his head, looked at his nose with his eyes, and looked at his heart.
He knew that he didn't need to take that kind of thing.
The emperor disobeys the old man and holds power very tightly, and even he, a confidant, does not know which prince the emperor favors.
In fact, the princes are in a hurry, and he, the emperor's henchman, is even more anxious, and he doesn't know in advance who the next emperor is, how can he sell it well? can't sell well, and when the old emperor dies, what awaits him is a plummet, and maybe he will lose his life.
Wu Yong was not disloyal to the emperor, but it was about his future and life, and he had to work hard.
"Help me remember, if the fourth child completes his errand this time, he will be rewarded as a prince." The Emperor said with a grin.
"Yes." Wu Yong's eyes caught the smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth, and he trembled.
And in his heart, he lit a piece of wax for Mo Yan.
At this time, it is not a good thing to surpass the previous princes and become the first prince.
The next artillery fire of those princes will attack him, probably this is what the emperor wants.
I can't think about it, and the more I think about it, the more scared I become.
Wu Yong's head lowered a little and stood aside with awe.
Mo Yan didn't know that the old emperor was calculating him again, and he was on his way at this time.
Grizzled, with a batch of grain, hurried to Qingzhou.
This batch of grain was bought by him with the money in the house, and the Hubu Shangshu didn't squeeze out a penny, and Mo Yan didn't have time to ink with him, in fact, he couldn't wait to pinch this corpse meal Shangshu to death.
When he ascended to the throne, the first thing he promised was to copy the house of Tobe Shangshu!
In the study of the Three Princes' Mansion, he was in a solemn silence at the moment.
Just now, Situ Khotan inquired about the fact that the Crystal Pavilion was Mo Yan's industry.
It should be said that Mo Yan didn't want to hide it at all.
This made Situ Khotan, who got the glass formula, no longer happy.
He rushed to the Three Princes' Mansion as soon as possible and told the Three Princes about it.
"I didn't expect the fourth child to think so deeply." After a long time, the third prince exhaled deeply.
"How the hell did he get that recipe?" Situ Khotan was puzzled.
There had never been such a thing as glass before, and he didn't believe that the fourth brother of Mu Ne could make such a money-making thing.
Since he couldn't get it himself, he must have gotten it from someone else.
But apart from Ling Jiayin, where can you get it? Could it be that he, a good fourth brother, had already set his sights on Ling Jiayin, bought off the people around her, stole the formula, and then made things in advance?!
The more Situ Khotan thought about it, the more it made sense.
"The fourth child is too treacherous!" Situ Tian punched heavily on the table.
"How?" The third prince turned his head to look at Situ Khotan.
Situ Khotan angrily told his guess, and after the third prince pondered for a long time, he nodded and said, "There is some truth, then you have to pay close attention to Ling Jiayin, such a woman, you can't let others go." ”
"I understand, third brother." Situ Tian's expression was solemn.
He also realized that he underestimated this woman, not to mention anything else, but she was worthy of his attention when she could often come up with money-making ideas.
"You don't have to worry too much about the fourth child, it's the most important thing to get the so-called glass out as soon as possible."
Situ Tian nodded, he understood this truth, he was too short of money now.
Weapons, soldiers, recruiting officials, you don't need money, you can't do it if you don't have money.
"Alright, let's go." The third prince waved his hand.
Xia Yan sent Dawu Xiaowu to inspect the yamen to ask about the assassination two days ago, and as expected, there was no result.
On the streets of Kyoto, when it was still broad daylight, he dared to jump out and use the sword soldiers, and the most important thing was that he had nothing to do with the sword soldiers, which only proved that the emperor did not have much control over the officials below.
Xia Yan even wondered if the emperor had gotten any news about this matter.
The emperor who has been ill for a long time can't be awe-inspiring at all, so it's better to retire early.
Xia Yan hugged the little guy over and rubbed it, feeling a little bored.
was thinking about what to do to pass the time, Qiu Yue came in and reported: "The girls in the backyard want to say hello to their wife." ”
"Girl?" Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was the women collected by Situ Khotan, "I don't see it." ”
Qiu Yue got the order, so she turned around and went out to send someone.
But not long after, Xia Yan heard the sound of quarrels, and there was a growing trend.
What the?!
Xia Yan stood up and walked out of the house, and saw a group of about seven or eight women shouting around Qiu Yue.
Wrinkled, these women are not very old, but they are dressed up bewitchingly, and they are annoying to look at.
"What for? What nonsense are you talking about them? Tell someone to throw it out. ”
"Yes, ma'am." Qiu Yue looked at Xia Yan's tense and displeased face, and was startled.
For the first time since she was bought, she saw Xia Yan's stern expression.
But before Qiu Yue could react, a woman rushed over, and said as she rushed: "Madam, everyone is the woman of the Six Princes, we respect you, but you can't ...... Ah~~~"
Before he finished speaking, he was kicked by Xia Yan and hit the wall.
Suddenly, the scene was quiet, and the women stopped making noise, and they all took two steps back in fear.
"Throw it out!"
Qiu Yue bit her lip and glared hatefully at these unconscious women in front of her, just as she was about to make a move, these women consciously turned around and ran out, and in the end, only the unlucky woman who was kicked away was left with her hands.
"Come back and deal with it like this." Xia Yan nodded with satisfaction, left a word of instruction and turned around and went back to the house.
"We'll find His Royal Highness the Prince!" In the distance, a woman's screams could be heard.
Xia Yan ignored it, but Qiu Yue took a few steps to the gate of the courtyard and snorted at the backs of those women.
I regret that I didn't do it sooner.
