Chapter Seventy-One: The Emperor's Secret Edict
Chang Yi still shook his head, "That, you won't cook in the future, there is a cook in the house who specializes in cooking, you said that your hands are used to create, how can it be ruined on cooking, isn't it?" ”
Chang Yi tasted it under Shen Xi's persecution, the taste was really a little weird, and the mushy taste in his mouthful made him unable to accept it, so he quickly ran away.
Shen Xi herself is self-aware of her cooking skills, and she can't say anything, after all, she hasn't been into the kitchen much, and it's great to be able to do this.
"Now, since he doesn't eat it, you can eat it!" Shen Xi turned around and said to Fu Chuan beside him.
Fu Chuan shook his head with a face full of resistance, "I don't like to drink porridge, so I'd better leave it to myself!" With that, he ran out of the hall at the speed of the wind.
And Lu Qingyi, he has tried his best to stagger the time with Mrs. Ru, but it is inevitable that there will still be times when Mrs. Ru is talking and chatting with Yu Bin in the living room, but looking at her appearance, it is much more vicissitudes than before, and I think it is also because of the matter of the pharmacy.
Although she said that she would not be implicated in the matter of the pharmacy, Shen Xi made such a fuss, which can be regarded as a heavy blow to Mrs. Ru, who originally thought that there would be nothing wrong, but Shen Xi directly made everyone know.
Not only did it not make Lu Qingyi's pharmacy's business decline, but it also made the pharmacy's business better and better.
When Lu Qingyi saw it, he was in a good mood, he had been fighting with Mrs. Ru for so many years, and he had never been in such a good mood.
When Mrs. Ru saw Lu Qingyi, she naturally didn't have a good face, she had always pretended to be very good to Lu Qingyi only in front of Lu's father.
Lu Qingyi walked straight past Mrs. Ru, and didn't say hello, and pretended not to see it, but his action angered Mrs. Ru, "Lu Qingyi, as a junior, don't you know how to greet your elders?" How can you be so uneducated? ”
Lu Qingyi stopped, turned to look at Mrs. Ru's disgusting face, "Upbringing? Are you worthy to talk to me about upbringing? Are you worthy to be an elder? An elder who has been trying to frame me all day long, where is he worthy of my respect? ”
Lu Qingyi's expression was indifferent, without the slightest emotion.
Mrs. Ru was not angry, but just smiled at Lu Qingyi, "You said that you have no mother since you were a child, why are you so stubborn?" I don't know how good it would be if you were obedient. ”
"It's a pity that it didn't work out as you wished." After Lu Qingyi said this, he turned around and left.
Mrs. Ru was so angry that she dropped the teacan, and Yu Bin comforted her on the side, "What's the use of you being angry?" If you have time to get angry, you might as well think about how to deal with this evil seed. ”
Yu Bin is not a particularly talkative person, and he seems to be very gentle, but in fact he is also a vicious person.
Lu Qingyi first went to Chang Yi's mansion, Fu Chuan was teaching Shen Xi how to hold a sword in the courtyard, only to see Fu Chuan sticking behind Shen Xi and holding Shen Xi's hand with his hand, Lu Qingyi's face suddenly darkened.
"What are you two doing here? Hurry up and put your sword down. ”
Shen Xi looked at Lu Qingyi's sinking face, but smiled, "You also eat Fu Chuan's vinegar?" Is this necessary? ”
"What do you mean by unnecessary? Who said that sword training has to be so close? After Lu Qingyi finished speaking, he glared at Fu Chuan, and Fu Chuan quickly put away his sword and ran away in order to avoid lightning.
"Then you don't have time to teach me, I'll let Fu Chuan teach me without any problem, do you want to make such a fuss?" Shen Xi rolled her eyes at Lu Qingyi, how could she not know that Lu Qingyi was so jealous before? 137
"That's it, I said you don't even believe Shen Xi at this point, how can you stay with her for the rest of your life?" Chang Yi, who has been gloating on the sidelines, can be regarded as speaking.
Lu Qingyi glanced over, and Chang Yi immediately stopped talking.
"If you are really bored, you might as well think about how your bookstore will run in the capital in the future, and what kind of martial arts you will learn blindly! Even if I want to learn, I'll have to teach you when I have time. Lu Qingyi said to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi knew that Lu Qingyi meant that she couldn't touch anyone except him.
"Didn't you come here early in the morning just to find fault and be jealous?" Shen Xi crossed his hands on his hips, expressing his dissatisfaction with Lu Qingyi's overlord clause.
"I'm here to see you, nothing else." Lu Qingyi scoffed.
Shen Xi, "......"
Chang Yi was happy to watch them bickering from the sidelines, and this Lu Qingyi estimated that Shen Xi dared to quarrel with him like this.
Lu Qingyi hadn't sat in Chang Yi's mansion for a while, when he received the emperor's secret decree announcing that he and Chang Yi had entered the palace.
Even if it is a secret purpose, it represents that this matter is extraordinary, and it is even more unusual to call Lu Qingyi.
Chang Yi and Lu Qingyi both went directly to the imperial study to find the emperor as usual, but they were directly led to the secret room by Gonggong Li beside the emperor, Chang Yi and Lu Qingyi glanced at each other, and then looked solemn.
"Father, you Xuan'er and Lu Qingyi are here, but what is the important matter?"
After the emperor asked Gonggong Li to go out to guard, he handed the secret letter he received in his hand to Chang Yi, "Here are some evidence of some merchants in Changzhou colluding with the local government to evade taxes and evade taxes, and also act with conscience, most of these merchants are in collusion with the He family, and the others are the property of your Lu Mansion." When the emperor said the last sentence, he looked at Lu Qingyi.
"Your Majesty, the Lu family's industry is huge, and it is inevitable that some traders will be greedy for small profits and do some things that hurt nature and reason." Lu Qingyi frowned slightly, most of Changzhou's industries are taken care of by Mrs. Ru, and she must know all these things.
"I asked the two of you to go to Changzhou and solve all these things, kill the heads who should be killed, and take back the property that should be recovered." The emperor's face suddenly became solemn, "But this matter is very important, I hope you will be careful and don't let the queen and the He family know." ”
"And you, I can't control the affairs of you and your stepmother, but this matter is related to the Lu family, and I hope you don't have selfish intentions."
"The sons obey the order, the father can rest assured, the sons will definitely not ask Lu Qingyi to be partial." Chang Yi replied.
Coming out of the secret room, Chang Yi and Lu Qingyi's faces were full of gloomy clouds, Chang Yi has never been valued by the emperor, why did he let him carry out this matter this time? And Lu Qingyi is not an official in the court, let alone involved, the two of them can't figure out what the emperor's current approach means for a while.
But since it fell on their heads, no matter whether there was a mountain of swords or a sea of fire in front of them, they had to break through.
It's just that once Lu Qingyi goes to Changzhou, no one will take care of the capital, and he is worried that even if he destroys Mrs. Ru's property in Changzhou by then, he is afraid that he will have no place in the capital.
After Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi told Shen Xi about this matter, Shen Xi also frowned and thought about it for a long time, and couldn't see the emperor's intentions clearly.
