Song Xingchen's expression changed, but he quietly followed Song Yue's speed, looking around, and no one passed by, nor did he find anything abnormal.

"What's the news?" Song Xingchen asked in a low voice, and then followed Song Keymei's example, and laughed loudly: "You are in a hurry, can I still lose it?" Don't worry, I won't forget what I promised you. ”

"Your noble business is busy, it doesn't matter if you forget, I took the initiative to remind you." After Song Keymei finished speaking, she lowered her voice and said: "The messenger, let me pay attention to the medicine that works particularly well on the second sister and the second brother-in-law, let me find a way to get some for them, and let me see if you have any special water there, I don't quite understand what they mean." ”

Song Xingchen paused, and his face turned cold.

Although it is uncertain who the person who threatened Song Keymei's errands is, at present, An Jia is the most suspicious.

Thinking of what Zhou Ding said, Song Xingchen smelled that a crisis was coming.

To be exact, it is a conspiracy that she cannot predict, brewing, and the Song family may be involved in it.

"Meizi, I'll send you away, you can go back and clean up now...... No, you don't have to bring anything, I'll just send you away, and I'll have someone arrange everything for you. Song Xingchen didn't want to drag Song Keymei into the water, so he was determined to send Song Keymei away.

"Xingchen, have you forgotten? We are good sisters, you encouraged me to help me when I was at my worst, how could I leave when you needed me? Song Keymei shook her head with a smile and said: "What's more, the third uncle and the third aunt went back to Gushantun to run an academy this time, and the entire Gushantun will follow, and naturally they will all participate, especially my father and mother, who are inseparable from the Song family in the capital." ”

"Meizi, I'm ......" Song Xingchen opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, because Song Keymei was telling the truth.

"Don't say anything like that again, if you feel sorry for me, then when the matter is over, help me open a small shop." I'll pay you a little money every month, don't say anything you want to give it to me, or I'll be angry." Song Keymei smiled silently, her eyes full of sincerity.

Song Xingchen knew that it was useless to say more, so he was not ready to persuade Song Keymei anymore, but thought about what to do to protect the mother and daughter.

The Song family is not necessarily absolutely safe, but Song Xingchen doesn't want Song Keymei to have an accident because of the Song family again, after all, they are no longer children, and if something really happens, they don't have to worry about causing their relatives to collapse, at most they will be sad for a while.

But they all have their own responsibilities on their shoulders and cannot shirk it.

Song Keymei only made a stick of incense in Song Xingchen's house, and then returned to the guest house with a snack recipe.

After drinking a cup of tea, Song Xingchen called Strawberry to him and asked her to tell her what had happened in the past few days.

Strawberry has always been an expert in gossip, whether it is the neighborhood or some inside stories in the inner courtyard of the palace, she can find out clearly.

"An Guiren is a good means, and he actually jumped two levels to become An Concubine, and she is worthy of being the woman who was able to share the power of the six palaces with the queen mother back then." Song Xingchen said this, but in his heart he was wondering if the emperor's assassination had anything to do with Concubine Ruan's accident.

Although the emperor did not let Shuntian Mansion Yin enter the palace to investigate the case, some things still invisibly put pressure on Shuntian Mansion Yin, I am afraid that he could have done his best, but this time he could only dare to do seven or eight points.

"I heard that Concubine An did not invite pets this time because of her meritorious service in rescuing the driver, but she was very quiet to recuperate, which is very different from her previous temperament." Strawberry said as if she was in the palace and saw everything with her own eyes.

"It's smart to learn, and I know how to converge on the edge." Song Xingchen commented and motioned for Strawberry to continue with the next gossip content.

Although Song Xingchen felt that it was not an accident about An Concubine, the queen could allow her rival to dangle under her nose, either because she was helpless, or she wanted to deal with her to the end.

No matter which one it is, it is a struggle in the palace, Song Xingchen is reluctant to think deeply, she can't do anything anyway.

"I heard that Qin Tianjian has already calculated the days, and in half a year, he will build a princess's mansion for the princess. Now the Ministry of Household is negotiating with the Ministry of Rites to prepare the materials for the construction of the Princess's Mansion. Strawberry said with some anticipation: "I don't know if the princess's princess's mansion has an imperial kitchen, the food in the palace must be delicious, right?" ”

"Well, the craftsmanship of the imperial chef is top-notch." Song Xingchen said insincerely.

Having lived in the palace, Song Xingchen certainly knew that the meals cooked by the imperial kitchen only paid attention to form and nutrition, but could not pay attention to the taste.

No matter which palace it is, it is sent over by the imperial dining room, and most of the imperial chefs make cold dishes in order to make the food delicious.

And in order to make it easier to test whether there is a problem with the meal, the taste is mainly light.

A person like Strawberry, who is greedy for a quick appetite, will definitely be able to lose weight into a lightning bolt within a month of arriving at the palace.

Thinking that the palace concubines and palace people he saw were all graceful women, Song Xingchen covered his mouth and laughed, he really sympathized with these nobles with high status, if they didn't have the silver to open a small stove, they would all be not much different from leading hair cultivation.

"Miss herself has eaten the food in the imperial dining room, and the slave is not allowed to think about it!" Strawberry said aggrievedly.

"Of course, if you have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely fulfill your wish and let you eat the food cooked by the imperial kitchen." Song Xingchen said very happily, seeing that the eyes of the strawberry foodie were flickering, he hurriedly said: "In addition to these things, what else have you heard about in the past few days that are related to the house?" ”

"Hee-hee, no." Strawberry shook her head.

"Miss doesn't need to ask strawberries, in addition to going to the young grandmother to help take care of the little lady these days, most of the time she goes to Rebirth to sit, and these news are also reborn for her to convey to Miss." Apple dismantled the stage on the sidelines, accusing Strawberry of fake public benefit.

"My dear sister, how can you wronged me so much? Who's to say I didn't find out on my own? Strawberry pouted unhappily: "I went to look for Rebirth that day, and I happened to see the businessman who signed an order with the second lady, guess who he went to meet?" ”

"Who?" Knowing the temperament of strawberries, Song Xingchen asked cooperatively.

"The butler of Anfu." After strawberry finished speaking, he playfully stuck out his tongue and said, "But they went to talk in Anjia's restaurant, so I didn't follow up." ”

"Has Rebirth found out the details of the merchant?" Song Xingchen frowned and asked.

"I forgot to tell him." Strawberry muttered quietly.

"You don't have a long brain, in addition to knowing how to eat, you think about marrying your reborn brother all day long, if you miss the young lady's business this time, it's up to you to do it." Apple glared at Strawberry in hatred.

"I really didn't mean to, when my reborn brother saw me, he told me about the palace, and I forgot about it when I was excited." Strawberry explained weakly.

"Apple, you immediately go to Rebirth and ask him to investigate the background of that businessman as soon as possible, focusing on his relationship with the An family." Song Xingchen didn't have time to appease Strawberry, so he directly asked Apple to do it.

"Yes, slave and maid will go." Apple was blessed, turned around and walked away quickly.

Strawberry craned his neck, knowing that he had done something wrong, and he didn't dare to speak out.

Song Xingchen didn't bother to punish the strawberry, but thought about the relationship that the merchant might have with the An family, and the purpose of the contract between the merchant and the Song family.

"Strawberry, what kind of deal did the second lady and the merchant sign?" Song Xingchen pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked.

"Three thousand barrels of soy sauce and five thousand barrels of vinegar, but the merchant said that he was in a hurry to leave the capital, and he would ask for the goods in half a month." Strawberry replied.

Because Apple and Strawberry often go to deal with business matters with Song Xingchen, they know the situation of the workshop better than Song Yue, so when talking about business, Song Yue always takes one of these two girls with her, so as not to fail to deliver.

Song Xingchen naturally knew the amount of inventory in the workshop, although the goods asked by the merchant were urgent and there were a lot of them, but the Song family's workshop would not break the contract.

If Strawberry hadn't said that the merchant had anything to do with the housekeeper of the An family, Song Xingchen wouldn't have bothered about it, but at this moment, he felt that this matter was definitely boring.

"Strawberry, you go to the second sister's place and ask the second sister to send me the contract. Also, I want the ledger from the workshop. After Song Xingchen finished speaking, he got up and went to the inner room.

After the strawberry left, Song Xingchen immediately entered the space to check the amount of inventory in the space.

Most of the Song family's workshops are orders for regular customers, so there is a fixed consumption every month, and the inventory is used for emergency emergencies, and the number will not be outrageous.

"An family, it's really incompatible with our Song family, sooner or later, you will no longer be qualified to be the enemy of the Song family." Song Xingchen counted the amount of inventory in the space with two minds, and also estimated the situation in the workshop after the delivery of this batch of goods.

Let's say that after Zhou Feng returned home, he went to the small courtyard for a walk, and after learning that Song Xingchen had left, he didn't show any disappointment, after all, he knew that Song Xingchen couldn't stay here all the time.

Yelang secretly observed Zhou Feng's expression, and saw that he had no reluctant attitude, so he showed him what Zhou Ding said.

"An Feast." Zhou Feng silently read the name, his expression dark.

"Zhou Ding should be very short of silver." Yelang was on the side, and he didn't raise his head.

"What do you mean......" Zhou Feng didn't keep up with Yelang's train of thought.

"Give him the money and buy the evidence." Ye Lang moved his finger and said in a low voice: "An Xuyan has a lot of private soldiers in his hands, and we haven't found a few strongholds yet. Once An Xuyan receives the news, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold back and send troops. ”

"The An family wants to call themselves emperors?" Zhou Feng didn't believe it, after all, the foundation of the Great Zhou Kingdom was stable, and if the An family really had this intention, it would also be self-defeating.

"Hasn't Ahn Hoon confessed yet?" Yelang didn't answer Zhou Feng's question, those things should be the people in the royal family to worry about, not him, the leader of the secret guard who only helps in secret.

"Nope." Zhou Feng shook his head, Zhou Feng felt a deep headache for An Xun, whose mouth was harder than a stone.

If it weren't for the fact that An Xun must have something useful in his hands, Zhou Feng would not have kept him until now, and he would have to waste manpower to ensure that An Xun would not die 'accidentally'.

Yelang frowned and said, "An Xun has a weakness, I'll try it." ”

"It's fine." Zhou Feng didn't ask Yelang, what An Xun's weakness was, as a superior, many things don't need to be handled personally, otherwise he will be a loser.
