Their posture can be said to have frightened Qixiang's shopkeeper, and he hurriedly stepped forward and stammered and asked, "Officials...... Official, we are operating legally, why are you? ”

When he said this, the shopkeeper didn't forget to block Jiang Qianqian with his body. The eldest lady of their family is so delicate, don't be frightened by these five big and three thick officers and soldiers.

"Why are you so cowardly? Who said we're here to get in trouble with your store? The shopkeeper's words amused the officers and soldiers at the head, and a face full of beards and laughter can be described as how honest and honest it is: "Let me ask you, is your boss the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

"I'm Qixiang's boss Jiang Qianqian, I don't know what the officials are looking for me." Jiang Qianqian understood that these officers and soldiers should have something to do with her. He simply took a few steps forward and stood in front of several officers and soldiers in a dignified manner.

The leading officers and soldiers looked at Jiang Qianqian, he felt that although this woman looked delicate, there was no cowardice in her eyes, it was obvious that she was a woman who was weak on the outside and strong on the inside, so he immediately ordered the entourage behind him: "Please bring in that person and the plaque!" ”

It didn't take long for a fair-skinned man with a dust whisk in his hand to pass through the passage of everyone's concession and appear in front of Jiang Qianqian. At the same time, there were two people behind him carrying a plaque, on which were written the four big characters "Good thoughts will last forever".

These four words are magnificent, and it is clear that they are not very human.

"What are you?" Everything in front of her made Jiang Qianqian even more confused, and in addition to confusion in her eyes, she was still confused.

The leading officers and soldiers couldn't stand it anymore, and explained to Jiang Qianqian: "This is the Fu Gonggong in the palace, who specially conveyed the holy decree for today's saint!" ”

As soon as the leading officers and soldiers finished speaking, the man with the floating dust in his hand took out the holy decree from his wide sleeve.

It turns out that this person is the father-in-law of the palace!

Jiang Qianqian reacted at this time, no wonder she felt that this man was a little feminine, but this was the case. She knelt down and waited for the blessed father-in-law to read the decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said that the Jiang family has a female name called Qianqian, and the heart of the world is for disaster relief for the people. Hereby, the Jiang family is the imperial businessman, and I am given a plaque written by myself to show my appreciation! Chin this! ”

"Emperor Xie, long live the emperor, long live long live!"

Jiang Qianqian never thought that one day she would be treated so favorably by the current emperor, and she was inevitably a little excited in her heart. After accepting the holy decree and getting up, she didn't forget to let Su Xin stuff some silver taels to Father-in-law Fu and let him drink tea or something.

Father-in-law Fu pretended to excuse himself a few times before he pretended to be unable to shirk and accepted the silver money given to him by Jiang Qianqian, and flattered him that he was touched by Jiang Qianqian's joy. But Father-in-law Fu is a person in the palace, he did not stay in Jiang Qianqian's shop for a long time, and after congratulating him, he went back to the palace to resume his life.

Soon, the news of Jiang's appointment as an imperial merchant spread throughout Kyoto, and the most surprising of them was the prime minister's wife. After the doorman in Cheng's mansion came back from playing chess, she hurriedly asked the prime minister about the matter: "Master, where do you say this Jiang Qianqian has the ability?" Received the emperor's holy decree? ”

"Oh, it's a long story......"

The prime minister told the prime minister's wife what happened when he saw Jiang Qianqian at the donation site that day. I didn't forget to add: "Don't underestimate our delicate daughter-in-law, she has the integrity that ordinary men don't have!" ”

(b)

As soon as Jiang Qianqian returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she saw the Prime Minister's wife greet her, and said to her very warmly: "Qianqian, can you let your mother take a look at the holy decree issued to you by the emperor?" ”

To be honest, Jiang Qianqian was quite unaccustomed to seeing her mother-in-law so enthusiastic, but she still gave the holy decree to the prime minister's wife. Fortunately, since then, the prime minister's wife has never made things as difficult for Jiang Qianqian as before, and even occasionally asks Jiang Qianqian if she has encountered difficulties in her business.

The change of the Prime Minister's wife Jiang Qianqian was a little surprised at first, guessing that maybe it was the reason why she won glory for the Prime Minister's Mansion this time, so she didn't continue to dwell on it.

After dinner, Jiang Qianqian walked around the courtyard accompanied by Su Xin. The cool wind blew Jiang Qianqian's soft and flowing hair, making her whole person look extremely fairy.

"Miss, do you think that the emperor's gift of the plaque is behind the prince's help? Some time ago, when the slave maid went to Qixiang, I happened to hear the people in the store say that the prince had made a special trip to the palace! ”

After hesitating for a long time, Su Xin still said the guess in her heart.

"You girl is finally smart, and I and other civilians naturally can't get into the eyes of the emperor." Jiang Qianqian smiled softly at Su Xin, and affirmed what Su Xin just said: "But the prince is different, he is the emperor's younger brother." As long as he mentions it casually, the emperor will naturally be more concerned. ”

Jiang Qianqian got Ling Haochen's help, and always wanted to find an opportunity to express her gratitude to him, but because of the woman's reserve and the criticism of the outside world, she didn't dare to ask him to meet and thank him in person. Fortunately, on this day, Jiang Qianqian went to the street and saw Ling Haochen's figure from a distance.

"Lord Wang!" Although she really wanted to help those victims at first, Ling Haochen's kind words allowed her to take such a big benefit. Jiang Qianqian wanted to thank him, so she took the initiative to say hello to Ling Haochen.

Hearing the woman's gentle voice, Ling Haochen had some doubts in his heart. In the past, if there was nothing important, she would take a detour when she saw him, how could she take the initiative to come forward to say hello today?

"It's Madame." Ling Luochen and the others fixed their eyes on Jiang Qianqian, and their voices were extremely soft: "This king saw that the weather was very good today, so he came out to shop, didn't you think that you also had such leisure?" ”

"I wanted to go to the street to buy something today, but I didn't expect to meet the prince here." Jiang Qianqian's words were serious, and there was a shallow smile on the corner of her lips.

It's just that she is still in the downtown area, and as soon as the words fell, an old woman who didn't know where to break out hurried and bumped into Jiang Qianqian without knowing it.

Jiang Qianqian was caught off guard, her body suddenly lost her center of gravity, and she fell forward. She closed her eyes in fright, thinking that she was going to make a fool of herself in front of Ling Haochen one day. But what awaited her was not the hard ground, but a warm embrace.

"Thank you...... Thank you, Lord Wang! At this moment, Jiang Qianqian was even more panicked, her ears instantly turned red, and she hurriedly broke free from Ling Luochen's arms.

"It's okay, please forget what happened just now." Ling Haochen also took a step back, keeping a safe distance from her. Seeing that Jiang Qianqian was still blushing and looking embarrassed, he coughed lightly to break the embarrassment between the two: "Mrs. said just now that she wanted to go shopping, and this king was just going to the front, I wonder if I stopped by with Mrs." ”。

"Naturally, it's on the way."
