Chapter 442: The Difference Between the King and the People
I handled the affairs of the Lu family almost completely, and King Rui'an was also ready to set off, Cui Wei was inconvenient and couldn't go far, so he was asked by King Ruian to stay in Ning'an County, and I went to the capital as a representative of no return to report on my work, and entered Beijing with King Ruian.
used to be the princess of King Ruian, and when I entered Beijing with him, the treatment I enjoyed was also the treatment of the princess, and everything was the best. But this time I am just a folk girl, although I am fortunate to be stained with the light of King Ruian, and live with him in the post station of the official family, but King Ruian can live in a good room, so I can only live in a lower room. King Ryan can be waited for by a group of people to wait before and after the saddle, and whatever he wants, someone will send him to his room at the sound of an order, and I can only do it myself, and if I refuse to do it, I can only starve.
I sighed speechlessly, went back to my room with a sour heart, and said to Cai'er: "I only know now what the heavenly family is rich and noble, it turns out that the gap between us civilians and the prince is so big, you look at the king of Ruian opposite, which one is the prince traveling?" I don't think that's how the emperor travels, right? Look at us again, we even have to boil hot water by ourselves, and we have to keep an eye on it ourselves, and if we don't pay attention to it, we will be used by the other side! ”
Cai'er smiled: "Do you think you are still a princess?" Okay, if Miss hadn't suffered before, it would be nice if we could have a post station to live in, drink water, and eat later, I don't know what we can eat, if it doesn't suit the taste, the slave will cook it herself, and promise not to make Miss suffer herself. ”
Unexpectedly, at dinner, Wang Xi personally delivered the food and said, "This is what our prince personally ordered to send to Miss Lu, please Miss Lu use it slowly." ”
Seeing Wang Xi's attitude, I chuckled silently, and after sending him out, I couldn't help but laugh and said: "His attitude towards me was bad before, but now that King Ruian personally ordered it, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to me, it's really snobbish." I look pretty good, shall we eat it? ”
On the surface, only Cai'er and I entered Beijing with King Ruian's team, but Yue Baiyu took people to accompany me in the dark to ensure that there would be no problems with my safety. But with King Ryan, I want to see the faces of those who pursue King Ryan, and I have endured all the white eyes, but fortunately, King Ryan took good care of me and didn't let me be wronged.
I know that my identity is not as good as before, so I can only endure it and not worry about them, and even if I am powerful, now I don't have the identity of Princess Ruian as a shield, and I can't face the officials, and the people don't fight with the officials. So along the way, the subordinates of those post stations promised King Ryan to take more care of me, but I didn't care about how many stumbling blocks I made behind my back, and gave me more rewards, so that they would not have any complaints against me.
Since King Ryan was scolded and driven out of the Lu Mansion by me that night, his attitude towards me has become much more respectful, and he no longer dares to have any deviant behavior, even if he talks to me, it is during the day, when there are many people, in front of everyone, speaking innocently, for fear that his inappropriate behavior will ruin my reputation.
But because of this, King Ryan had very few opportunities to speak to me, and we had to travel during the day, and we had no chance to speak, and when we arrived at a place, he had to meet with the local officials, and when I came back, I had already fallen asleep. Ryan Awang rarely saw me a few times, and it was only when he was about to leave in the morning, but time was pressing, so he could only say hello and say a few polite words, and our team was about to leave.
I am also happy to be clean, I don't have to see him every day, I can have a lot of time to do what I want to do, read books, and deal with the affairs of the Lu family and the Lu family.
Although Lu Jiajun is eating the silver earned by the industry under my name, sometimes my industry harvest is not good and the profit is not enough, Lu Fengnian will also use the Lu family's silver to make up for it. So later, Lu Jiajun took care of the work of finding out the news, and I also returned the money I earned to Lu Fengnian first.
At first, Lu Fengnian only lent me money in his personal name, but later I asked him to go through the clear account and do this through the Lu family's bank. Lujiazhuang's intelligence business is also open and fair, but in our intelligence business, there are absolutely no sensitive issues of the royal magnates on the surface. Some guests want to know some private messages, and we don't accept them on the surface, but we will make a little action behind the scenes to transfer the transaction underground.
But now that there is no return to die, Cuixianglou is in my hands, Cuixianglou and Lujiazhuang's business has a conflict, since Xiangwei and Cuijia have recognized me as the boss, I naturally can't let every power in my hands be wasted, I will cut off the overlapping parts, Lujiazhuang and Cuixianglou to find out the source of news is different, some problems are more convenient for women to explore, I let them make the best use of things, use their own advantages to do things, and also help each other.
Lujiazhuang's intelligence work is much more idle than before, and I originally intended to let them follow the old path of the Black Water Regiment and do the killer business, but this business is too dangerous, and I am still thinking about it. Besides, what the killers are like, I know very well, first of all, those people in Lujiazhuang can't do it.
But what do they do? There are too many people in the intelligence business, so you don't need so many people, so that those people are idle and wasted, and they are fighting? We are not enough for a country's army to stuff our teeth, what benefits can we get from it? Rely on the "Treasure Book of Public Opinion" to make money? A squad of 100 people is enough, and there are still too many people left, so you can't let them all go home, right?
It turns out that there are so many people under my hands, and sometimes it's not a good thing!
What I could do with King Ryan in the past, now I can't do it as a common person, and what the officials can do, we can't do, this is an iron-clad strict law.
I was in a predicament for a while, and I didn't know how to arrange them so that I didn't wronged them?
Halfway through the walk, it suddenly started to rain heavily, so we had to find a place to shelter from the rain and wait for the rain to stop before walking. But this rain is three days, we are trapped here, three days later, the local officials came to report that the official road leading to the capital, blocked by the mudslide, has not yet counted the disaster, just want to clear the mudslide, it will take a month to restore traffic, if we have to wait, it will delay the big event, so let King Ruian think of other ways to enter Beijing as soon as possible.
King Ryan had no choice but to choose the waterway at the moment, and go through this section first.
