Chapter 335: The Truth About the Tragic Death of the Mother Concubine
The housekeeper tried his best to please Zhao Wenlu, and told him all the weaknesses of Nalan Jin and the things in the workshop.
However, it may be because Nalan Jin didn't let anyone know when he was promoting the cooperation with small local vendors, so the housekeeper didn't transmit the news to Zhao Wenlu.
As a result, Zhao Wenlu's business was hit hard and plummeted. In Zhao Wenlu's heart, he thought that this matter was a trick for the housekeeper and Nalan Jin to unite and calculate.
The housekeeper didn't know that he was stammering Zhao Wenlu, which made him sulky and hated everyone in Nalan Mansion, including the housekeeper.
"I said, you better please go back, let the prince enter the palace if he has something to do." The guard at the door persuaded him to have a dry mouth.
"The third prince has seen me, and it just so happens that I have nothing to do today, waiting here." The butler stood aside stubbornly.
The guard saw that this housekeeper had the intention of consuming it all the time, so he muttered a few words in the ear of another person and asked him to inform Zhao Wenlu to know.
In less than half an hour, Zhao Wenlu followed the guards out angrily, followed by a staggering peony.
"Do you want to see the king?" Zhao Wenlu asked in a rough voice.
"Master, this is the person." The guard saluted and pointed to the butler.
When the housekeeper heard that it was Zhao Wenlu's nature, he secretly rejoiced, and finally lived up to his painstaking efforts, and waited until Zhao Wenlu was willing to see him in person. He walked over eagerly to say hello.
"Three......" The butler smiled and saluted.
"Someone! Call me! In the future, this person will appear in the palace again, and if he sees it, he will be beaten once and dealt with as an assassin! Zhao Wenlu shouted.
Before the housekeeper's words were finished, he saw that Zhao Wenlu's thunderous anger had already been issued. When he was in the middle of his life, he saw two guards coming up from the left and right, poking the butler's popliteal fossa with the knife in his hand, and he fell to his knees heavily.
Then he was taken care of by the guards one after another, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and the housekeeper only felt a little pain in his right leg, a pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
"Scrapping your leg today is a lesson, get out!"
Zhao Wenlu raised his hand to let the guards retreat, warned the housekeeper sharply, and at the same time asked people to throw the housekeeper into the street.
The housekeeper suffered a loss, and he definitely didn't dare to refute in front of Zhao Wenlu, so he had to drag his disabled body back to Nalan Mansion.
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
The housekeeper's affair soon spread in the streets. Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi naturally heard about it.
At first, they didn't believe it, but when they saw the butler's crippled leg, they slowly accepted this fact.
"The housekeeper really went to tie up the three princes, but aren't they all the way, how can they still be disabled?" Although Nalan Jin was puzzled, she was not surprised at all.
"The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, do such things need to be explained?"
Dongfang Yi just shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then hid with Nalan Jin and watched the housekeeper's lame leg in secret.
The housekeeper also felt ashamed of such a thing, and was worried that Nalan Jin would drive him out of the house and hide in the house
Li didn't come out to see people for several days, and let Liu'er spread rumors everywhere, saying that he was targeted by Zhao Wenlu for the sake of Nalan Mansion.
This kind of message has been passed on to Nalan Mansion, and of course Nalan Jin knows how powerful it is, so he pretends not to know.
Gradually, the turmoil in Nalan Province stopped, and the business of the workshop gradually stabilized.
Those merchants who had cooperated with Nalan Jin before, seeing that Zhao Wenlu had no oil and water around him, let their business slowly decline.
Several people got tangled up and discussed, planning to cooperate with Nalan Jin again, but because of the previous downfall, they were embarrassed to come out with Nalan Jin again.
Several people shirked each other for a long time, and the merchant who thought it was older suggested to Nalan Jin.
Nalan Jin was busy processing the next orders in the workshop, and when she heard Cui'er say that a few merchants had come over in a gang, she thought it was a troublemaker.
"I don't know how many people came here today......" Nalan Jin Xiaowei asked vigilantly.
Several merchants bowed their heads in shame, looked at each other at the people around them, and then the people in front of them said what they meant.
"A few of us are here today just to ...... If we want to re-cooperate with Nalan Mansion, we used to be obsessed, and we had to cooperate with her under the coercion of the third prince. The older merchant looked at Nalan Jin in embarrassment.
"Yes, we are all forced to be helpless." The others chimed in.
Nalan Jin looked at several merchants standing in front of her, and remembered all kinds of ruthless abandonment of her before, and even pushed her deeper into the abyss.
"This ......" Nalan Jin's heart was a little taboo about what they had done before.
Cui'er was worried that Nalan Jin would be bullied, so when the merchant came, she hurriedly went to tell Dongfang Yi, fortunately, the two of them were fast enough to catch up with the time.
"Of course, the door to the workshop will be open for you at any time." Dongfang Yi replied loudly.
Nalan Jin paused for a moment, looked at Dongfang Yi standing at the door, and then nodded with a smile, "That's right, business comes from cooperation, and only by cooperating with everyone can we go further." ”
Dongfang Yi walked in front of Nalan Jin, and the two exchanged a glance, and she immediately understood what he meant.
"Really? That really couldn't be better. I really appreciate your willingness to cooperate with us despite your past suspicions. We're going to be ruined. The older merchant thanked Nalan Jin excitedly.
"yes, yes."
The others were even more surprised that they had treated Nalan Jin so ruthlessly before, and they could still be forgiven by them.
In order to show the sincerity of their cooperation, they deliberately took out the benefits they got in Zhao Wenlu as financing for cooperation.
Nalan Jin also gladly accepted.
Although he agreed to cooperate with these merchants, he still felt a shadow on his right arm in his heart, after all, the dog that had been bitten, no matter how much he was petted, he had to prevent him from biting again.
The business of the workshop is booming day by day, and Nalan Jin is also busy, a lot
The merchants looked red and wanted a piece of the leftovers.
Nalan Jin also did not refuse to come.
Early in the morning, the sky was gray and bright, and Nalan Jin had just gotten up. I saw Cui'er come in with an invitation.
"Miss, Lolo's letter." Cui'er placed the letter on the table.
Because there are only two words written on the letter, Lolo. So Cui'er didn't know that it was the letter of the Seven Princes.
Nalan Jin looked at Dongfang Yi suspiciously, and his jealousy began to flood again, "Don't look at me, I just saw it." Nalan Jin quickly explained innocently.
Dongfang Yi glared at Nalan Jin, and then stared at the letter on the table, and simply didn't do anything, and went up to open his heart.
Nalan Jin originally wanted to stop it, but it was still not as fast as Dongfang Yi.
"He invited the two of us to the suburbs to enjoy the scenery, and said that you know the location?" Dongfang Yi turned his head to look at Nalan Jin in surprise, "What is the matter with you carrying me behind your back?" ”
Dongfang Yi's anger began to burn slowly, and he directly touched the letter in front of Nalan Jin.
Nalan Jin was also inexplicable, "The only outskirts I know between me and him is when I was kidnapped, he rescued my manor, but it was just an orchard and nothing." ”
Nalan Jin was put on a position by Luo Luo, which was also a little inexplicable. The two of them were silent for a long time.
Originally, that person decided not to go just to avoid misunderstanding, but Dongfang Yi wanted to know what secrets were between them?
insisted on letting Nalan Jin take him there.
After not returning to the manor for such a long time, Nalan Jin found it entirely from memory.
When the two of them came to the manor, they could smell the aroma of wine from afar. The two followed the smell of wine to the thatched hut. And he saw Lolo drinking alone.
"Lolo, there's something I have to ask to talk about here." Nalan Jin looked around and felt that the atmosphere was a little weird.
"Sit down and have a few drinks with me, it's a great old wine." Lolo pointed to the position in front of them and asked them to sit down.
Nalan Jin glanced at Dongfang Yi and pulled him to sit down, and both of them looked at each other and felt that something was wrong with Luo Luo.
Luo Luo pulled Nalan Jin to drink a lot of wine and talked about the past and the present. The whole person's face began to be rosy, and his speech was a little unclear.
"Lolo, you're drunk, don't drink. You've changed, I remember you never drank before. Nalan Jin persuaded Luo Luo.
"Hehe... I'm not drunk, do you know why I became the way I am? Luo Luo looked at Nalan Jin with a smile.
"I've always wanted to ask, after separation, when we meet again, you're a completely different person." Nalan Jin looked at Luo Luo suspiciously.
"I always thought that my mother and concubine died of the cause, until my father was critically ill and my brother was fighting for the throne, I didn't know that my mother was killed by the queen!" Luo Luo pounded the table vigorously and drank the wine in one gulp.
"What!" Nalan Jin looked at Luo Luo in shock.
Even Dongfang Yi, who had been jealous next to him, looked at Luo in surprise
Lowe.
Regarding the affairs of the palace, they have also been hearing rumors outside that they died of the cause, but they didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns.
"That's right! It's the third prince, it's his mother who killed my mother, so I want to take revenge! Luo Luo's emotions were a little excited, "Do you remember that you just came back from the Western Regions, and I want you to cooperate with me?" is to take revenge on the third prince, I must let him be ruined, and let his mother die tragically. ”
Nalan Jin suddenly felt that the matter was a bit serious, this was a conspiracy to kill, a great crime of the queen. If you don't get it, you will be burdened, so come to the house and leave.
"This ......" Dongfang Yi quietly pulled Nalan Jin's arm, "This is originally a matter of the royal family, and we ordinary people can't help." Dongfang Yi gave Nalan Jin a look.
But Nalan Jin didn't think so. She originally felt that Zhao Wenlu was insidious and vicious, and there was no ink in her belly, especially the previous incidents, which made her feel that Zhao Wenlu's virtue was at a loss.
"It's not easy for us to make a decision about such a thing, so let's think about it. Today, I see that you are almost drunk, go back first, and talk about anything when you wake up. ”
Nalan Jin tactfully persuaded Luo Luo, and asked him to serve the people by the way, and took him away.
