Chapter 663: Pack Up
After Huang Quan left, Xue Ying said with a smile: "At that time, I knew that the secret guards sent by the Pavilion Master of the Secret Guard Pavilion were all people who were not good at being secret guards, and the slaves and maids thought that the Pavilion Master was perfunctory to the princess, but I didn't expect them to be quite successful now." β
At that time, Shi Qingqian took Xue Ying to meet these secret guards once, either they were huge and couldn't hide them at all, or the secret guards' skills were not solid, otherwise, they were energetic and noisy, and they couldn't calm down to hide themselves secretly.
Xue Yingri said: "This is still a secret guard......
Shi Qingqian admired that Yanxiao's consideration in his heart - this group of people, as the secret guards, can be said to be at the bottom, if they have been in the dark guard pavilion and have no achievements, they will definitely be disliked and looked down upon one day.
And with this reason, let them become the forbidden army, no matter how bad they are as secret guards, the foundation is much better than others.
In this short period of time, some of them have already emerged, and in order to make them better integrated, Shen Mi dispersed everyone into various military camps.
And now in Shen Shu's army, Huang Quan and Lechuan are the two most outstanding.
Before leaving, Shen Shu left his token to Shi Qingqi, and Shi Qingqi went to the barracks with the token and the jade plate of the Dark Guard Pavilion, so that they could obey his orders.
It's really convenient to think about it like this, and there are a few people with convenient legs and feet around you.
Huang Quan moved quickly, and in five days, he found out what Shi Qingqian handed over to him.
The old man Su has also been staying in the palace and refusing to leave, but the subordinates of the Hou Mansion have come so much, and he has unconsciously restrained a little, but he is still playing tricks every day, refusing to let Shi Qingqian have a peaceful life.
Shi Qingqian is not a fool, Old Man Su has been taking advantage of the Yan Palace, and she doesn't know at this time, now that she knows, it is impossible to ask him to go on like this.
And the news found by Huang Quan also gave Shi Qingqian an 'inspiration', and came up with a good way that could be done once and for all without being criticized.
On this day, Old Man Su didn't know who he was listening to gossip, and suddenly realized that for nearly a month, Shi Qingqian had been perfunctory to himself every day, in fact, he didn't want to give money at all, so he couldn't help it immediately, and went directly to Shi Qingqian's dormitory to make noise.
Shi Qingqian was still afraid that he would not come.
"Old Man Su, you also know the situation in our palace, I just got married, and everything is still unfamiliar," Shi Qingqian replied calmly, "You want me to take out the money so quickly, if I don't settle the previous accounts and find out the previous things, it is really unruly." β
"Come less! You girl has been urinating since she was a child! Old Man Su scolded, "Can't you take out a few thousand taels of silver from your huge Yanwang Mansion!?" Don't cry with Lao Tzu and be poor. β
Shi Qingqian sighed slightly and said, "It's not difficult to give money, but there is one thing that the younger generation still doesn't know very well - why can Old Man Su come to me for money so confidently?" β
"Naturally, it's because you owe Lao Tzu! I am the head of the Su family and the grandfather of the prince! The old man Su scolded confidently, "The little prince is so developed and doesn't worry about money, doesn't he care about the people in the family?" β
Hearing this, Shi Qingqian felt a burst of disdain in his heart.
This kind of so-called 'family' has never fulfilled the responsibility of nurturing, but only wants to enjoy the gratitude of the younger generation, what is the difference between such a greedy face and an insatiable traitor?
I didn't expect that the desires of these people would be more difficult to fill than a black hole - it is really not enough to swallow elephants, with two Zhuangzi as big as this, they could have lived safely and steadily on these two Zhuangzi for a lifetime, but they had to continue to be insatiable.
Thinking about it in his heart, a look of determination flashed in Shi Qingqi's eyes, and he continued: "But as far as I know, as early as ten years ago, the little prince gave you a Zhuangzi located in Lin'an, and two years later, he sent you an imperial village. In these two Zhuangzi alone, the annual rent collected is as much as 10,000 taels of gold and silver. My grandfather could live on these two Zhuangzi, and the 1,000 taels of silver per quarter was actually completely unnecessary. β
Seeing a hint of emptiness flashing on Old Man Su's face, Shi Qingqian continued to ask: "Could it be that this rent of 10,000 taels a year can't meet the expenses of the Su family, shouldn't it...... Could it be...... What went wrong? β
"When, of course not." Old Man Su said, "Your royal family has a big business, and the two Zhuangzi are not in your eyes, why do you keep holding a thousand taels of silver and refuse to let go!?" β
Shi Qingqian did not answer Old Man Su's words, but continued: "I know why, because these two Zhuangzi are not well managed, and they owe a lot of silver in just five or six years - the IOUs are stacked thicker than the title deed, and there are debt collectors coming to the door every three or five places. β
These are all news found by Huang Quan, although he is big, but his skills are still good, for fear that what he said will not be convincing, and he directly took advantage of the dark moon and high wind to go into the house and steal the IOUs or something.
Shi Qingqian was very satisfied with this, and couldn't help but 'admire' the ability of this old man Su to be pretentious when he looked at the stack of IOUs.
She took out these IOUs and waved them in front of Old Man Su, "The old man used these two Zhuangzi as collateral to borrow and repay the loan, but it was a bottomless pit, and he would never fill in his feelings." In order to make up for the loss of money, not only did you use various excuses to ask the palace for money, but also exploited the farmers in the village, and the rent was rising every year. The tenants in your village are almost unable to make a living now, and the old man, as the manager, doesn't even know? β
"Then, the Zhuangzi gave it to me is mine! It's not appropriate for the princess to come and ask again, right!? Old Man Su never expected Shi Qingqian to get those IOUs, but he still held on to his momentum.
"If I don't ask, you'll be chased in a few days. The debtor was killed. Shi Qingqian said with a smile.
Hearing this, Old Man Su raised his eyebrows vigilantly, "What do you mean by this?" β
Shi Qingqian got up, paced back and forth and said: "Minzhuang, if you send it, you will send it, how do you squander it, old man, it is also the face of your Su family that is ruined, but Huangzhuang is different, anything is related to the face of the royal family, you have not managed well over the years, it is enough to make the royal family lose face with your Su family, if you continue, no matter whether your Su family falls or not, the royal family will suffer with you......"
Listening to her words, Old Man Su's face was getting worse and worse every moment, and he said in his heart that this little girl really turned her face and didn't recognize people, and she started to speak so ruthlessly, it seems that she didn't think of herself as an elder at all.
"So, I will take back this imperial villageβof course, along with the debts on this village."
"Why! You said you will take it? β
