Calmly sitting on the steps of the Moon Tower, looking into the distance, what I saw was still the city wall in the distance, and Xiao Haruko stood on the side, looking at the gradually falling sunset, silent.

After a long time, he calmly withdrew his eyes, looked up at Xiao Chunzi, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Chunzi, after taking over Qianzhuang, there are still a lot of things to do, I am not here for a while, you and the eldest brother are more familiar with the operation, and when I come back, I will give you a few plans, and if you do it again, the income will be several times better than now." ”

"Niangniang, if you are flattering and grateful, Haruko will stop talking, what Niangniang asks Haruko to do, Haruko will do it." Haruko's voice was a little dull and trembling, and her face was sad.

"The biggest money bank in the capital is now ours, aren't you happy?" Calmly asked him.

Xiao Chunzi's tears flowed out of her eyes: "Compared with this money, what Haruko wants to see more is that her mother can live in the harem safe and sound." ”

Calmly laughed dryly: "What are you thinking about this bear child, why can't I be safe and sound, it's not that there is nothing now?" Don't worry, Zhu Yingsi has now been strictly ordered by the Queen Mother not to take a step out of the palace gate, and it is impossible for him to know that he was calculated in his life. You can see that he is now grateful to me for saving my life. ”

"Niangniang, don't just pick it up and say it freely, why don't you say that the cabinet ministers jointly played and asked the emperor to kill you. The minions all know that the harem has spread. Haruko choked up.

"Wasn't it blocked back by the emperor? I heard that Lord Shoufu also interceded for me, and it was unreasonable to reprimand those who played together, there was no danger, and I was not afraid. He said calmly and indifferently.

"Niangniang, what do you want to do big, Chunzi doesn't understand, Chunzi only asks Niangniang to take care of herself, everything must be life-oriented, money is just something outside the body, life does not bring death, you don't have to fight with your life."

Haruko knelt down beside her and cried.

Calmly touched his head, speechless, and sighed in his heart.

Zhu Yingsi was really as she thought, extremely greedy, and went out to make extra money with the satin of the Needlework Bureau.

Calm has long let Koharuko's eldest brother find someone to keep an eye on him, and when he saw him selling satin, he tempted him to continue to toss at a high price. And this guy really dared to sign a contract to buy and sell 10,000 pieces of satin.

On the side of the inner eunuch, it was also a letter to calmly find someone to penetrate, she had calculated that if Guan Jinu was loyal to the emperor, then she would not succeed in this plan, and Guan Jinu would only tell the emperor about Zhu Yingsi's private business and let the emperor deal with it.

But if Guan Jinu has a grudge against the emperor or his previous donation of family wealth is just acting, he will definitely arrest Zhu Yingsi and embarrass the emperor.

Calmness is the latter possibility.

Sure enough, Guan Jinu really arrested Zhu Yingsi.

Calm has long checked how much the emperor's reward for the concubine's family is appropriate.

Although the previous emperors were more or less different, most of them were tens of thousands of satin horses and thousands of taels of gold, and the total did not exceed 100,000 taels of silver.

So Calm took the lowest limit ever recorded in this comparison, which was fifteen thousand pieces of satin.

Zhang was helpless about this matter, so he taught him calmly, and only said to the ministers that this satin was originally given to his calm family, and Zhu Yingsi was just running an errand from it and delivering these satins truthfully.

Because of the current extraordinary period, if the reward is publicly given to the concubine's family, it is afraid of causing dissatisfaction among the courtiers, so it is not publicized.

As soon as the emperor said this, although the courtiers were dissatisfied with the emperor, they were even more dissatisfied that the fox spirit of calmness confused the emperor's mind and let the emperor, who had always been wise, do such a hasty thing.

All the infamy came towards calmness, scolding her for being a contemporary Daji, a disaster to the country and the people, and a crime that should be punished.

But before the emperor confessed to the courtiers, he had already talked to Shoufu first.

The idea before calming down successfully helped the court solve the problem of military salaries, and as a little woman, it was not impossible to ask the emperor for some rewards.

What's more, what she wants is not too much, it is the least amount of rewards among the concubines in all dynasties.

Lao Shoufu naturally has nothing to say, and the request for calmness is indeed not too much. Naturally, he couldn't say anything.

The emperor's approach is not too much, a woman who loves him has helped him come up with such a powerful idea, he is smug and asks for something, if the emperor refuses again, it is too ruthless.

Lao Shoufu is also a man of temperament, so he naturally understands the emperor's feelings, and of course he will help the emperor speak.

At the same time, he is also relaxed about calmness.

Since the beginning of the dynasty, the ancestors have made a rule that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

Therefore, at the beginning, after the emperor said that the idea of selling the official lord was calm, the old Shoufu was quite worried for a while, and decided that this cold concubine must be an ambitious strange woman, afraid that she would follow the example of her predecessors and ruin the foundation of Great Xia for a hundred years.

Judging from the fact that she asked the emperor for a reward, it was just a woman's knowledge, and she didn't have any big ambitions, because suddenly an idea was adopted by the emperor, and she got her mind and asked for something, which is really normal for a woman, and it is understandable.

This incident was all because of the previous emptiness of the treasury, and the old Shoufu himself was accused of selling the official title, and now Concubine Leng Niangniang has borne the sin of red face and trouble, and the sin of disaster to the country and the people, and she has really wronged her as a little woman.

Because some old shoufu also showed kindness, he suggested that the emperor reward Concubine Leng Niangniang's family with another 3,000 taels of gold, so as not to let her bear this grievance in vain.

Calm made a lot of money on the emperor's side, and outside the palace, she ordered Xiao Chunzi's eldest brother Lixia to talk to the shopkeeper of Zhu Yingsi's money village about the exchange.

Zhu Yingsi was arrested, and the shopkeeper was already afraid, if this matter of selling silk and satin led to the fact that he opened a money bank privately, then he would have to be beheaded.

This dynasty is very strict with the eunuchs who buy and sell abroad without permission, and once discovered, not only will the buying and selling be confiscated, but those who assist in the abuse will also be punished as accomplices.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard that someone wanted to redeem money, he naturally couldn't ask for it, and ventured into the palace overnight to ask for the idea of wishing Yingsi.

At this time, Zhu Yingsi has been ordered by the emperor to look at it, and he is not allowed to go out of the palace again, and he can escape with his life, for him, it is already burning high incense, how can he have any mind to continue to do business.

and went by the disposition of the shopkeeper.

As a result, Lixia only gave the shopkeeper surnamed Chang two cents of dry shares, and then offset Song Ji Qian Zhuang at one-tenth of the normal price.

Calmly, he ordered Lixia to sell the satin sent back from the release of the inner prison to the merchants of the Western Regions who came to the capital to do business, and the silver obtained was enough to pay for the money of the bank.

After tossing this place, he didn't pay a penny, and he got the largest money in the capital for nothing, and even businessmen like Lixia threw themselves to the ground with calm admiration, and they didn't shout that their younger brother would take them to meet this strange woman.

Haruko wanted to bring her brother to see Calm, but she was afraid that Calm would not be seen.

calmly told the emperor that Chunzi Niang was her distant cousin, who had been very good to herself since she was a child, and she was able to get acquainted with her when she came to Beijing. Of course the emperor believes.

The emperor was in a hurry to solve the matter of Zhu Yingsi, so naturally he would not be suspicious of calm words.

Before doing this, he had already explained to Haruko how to talk about his relationship with Calm, and before that, Calm and Xiao Chunzi also acted in a big show of recognizing relatives in front of Yu Fengshi Tai in Miaoyin Temple.

The opening scene of the big drama is to calmly chant sutras in the main hall, and Xiao Chunzi comes to hand over the daily necessities such as incense, candles, torches, etc., which are procured in the temple.

calmly waved his sleeves inadvertently, and dropped half a jade pendant out.

Xiao Chunzi happened to pass by and picked up this jade pendant for her.

It doesn't matter when I see this, even if I cry, I took out half a jade pendant from my sleeve, and the two came together, and it was indeed a complete jade pendant.

It turned out that they were cousins who had been separated for a long time, and it was no wonder that they hit it off at first sight, and when they saw Koharuko calmly, they were as affectionate as seeing relatives.

The sincere feelings of the cousins touched Mrs. Yu Feng, and Yu Feng also lamented that the world is unpredictable and makes people happy.

Calm down and beg her not to spread the word, lest it be misunderstood. said that she installed her relatives in the harem to do eyeliner.

Yu Feng, a monk, prides himself on being compassionate, and of course he agrees.

Therefore, when she calmly said that the merchant who bought the fifteen thousand satins was actually her family, Yu Feng became her most powerful witness, confirming that the Koharuko family was indeed her mother's family.

The monks don't speak, not to mention that Master Yu Feng is still an old fairy who has served the two emperors in the palace, of course he doesn't lie.

Calmly's plan was a complete success, and with Qianzhuang, according to her ability, she believed that she would soon become the richest rich man in Great Xia.

Money can't bring her status, but she wants to fight for that status, money is indispensable, although she is studying medicine, but she is not confused, if she controls the country's economy, it will not be far from the time when the emperor is overthrown.

So far, nothing has gone wrong with her plan.

The only thing that made her miserable was that she missed Sima Nan more and more.

Every time she does something, every time she takes a step towards success, her heart breaks once.

She never told Sima Nan how much she wanted him to raise her, she was only responsible for being beautiful like a flower, and Sima Nan was worried about the rest.

She is a little woman who just wants to live a quiet life with a husband and children.

And what she is doing now is not what she wants to do, nor is it what she wants.

But the person she had in mind would never appear again, and would never accompany her on this road of no turning back in the world.

She hated why she hadn't eloped with him earlier, and hated herself for not doing it when she could have saved him.

Sometimes, on a lonely midnight of tossing and turning, calm will break out in cold sweat one after another, feeling that he has killed his closest lover.

They have never really been together, which also makes Calm feel really sorry for Sima Nan, sorry for his deep affection for him, and sorry for him spoiling himself so unprincipledly.

She wanted to give herself to him no longer had the opportunity.

And her so-called revenge is probably just a reason for herself to live, no one bears the weight for her anymore, and she has to walk this thorny road on her own.

Calmly and slowly walked back to Miaoyin Temple, thinking about the day after tomorrow to set off for Jiangnan.

She didn't want to go to rest with Zhang, she wanted to meet someone.

She can't understand what she misses Sima Nan, as long as she misses anyone related to Sima Nan. As if seeing her, he was one step closer to Sima Nan.
