Chapter 007 I can't bear it
After Princess Jingwei finished these words slowly, she seemed to be confident, and she didn't observe Wang Qifang's reaction, but still looked at the peony flowers blooming in front of her, as if it was the first time she had seen such a delicate flower.
Pretending
Wang Qifang's heart was cold, hmph, don't you just want to wait for me to ask in shock, 'Princess, how did you know' or something like that.
It's a pity that you miscalculated.
What if you know her whereabouts, and what about finding out Li Huaien's details? Thinking that her Wang Qiniang, a young grandmother from a merchant family, can worship a few skilled chivalrous apprentices, is it not allowed for the princess to raise some eagle dogs?
What's more, there is the glorious image of the three princesses as a heroine as a model, and the princesses of the Great Zhou also have the phenomenon of privately training the women's army, of course, the number is not as large as the number of the three princesses, but there is no problem with each family having thirty or fifty people.
Princess Jingwei is also in the name of a princess, how can she not have a female guard with outstanding martial arts in her hands?
And these female guards have a lot of work, in addition to protecting the safety of the master and the safety of the house, they also help the master collect some information by the way.
Therefore, Wang Qifang knew after a little thought how Princess Jingwei knew her whereabouts today.
"Huh?" Princess Jingwei waited for a long time, but did not wait for Wang Qifang's response, turned her head a little stunned, looked at her deeply, and said, "What?" The second young grandmother didn't hear the words of this palace? Or do you think these things are too trivial for the second young grandmother to be interested in? ”
"If you go back to the princess, the concubine doesn't dare," Wang Qifang owed slightly, with a shallow smile on her face, her expression was calm, and there was no panic or confusion in her eyes as Princess Jingwei expected.
"......" Princess Jingwei was a little at a loss, a scene like today was staged in her princess's mansion and N times, and she was able to achieve her goal every time, why did she lose its effect today?
Wang Qifang's tepid reaction made Princess Jingwei very unhappy, as if the fist she had tried so hard to hit did not hit the opponent's vital point, but hit a pile of cotton, and she didn't even respond at all.
"Princess, I have long heard that the red plums in your house are particularly bright, and now thanks to the princess's wrong love, I specially invited the concubine to 'enjoy the plums', I don't know——"
Wang Qifang saw that Princess Jingwei was there, so she reminded her loudly.
"Hehe, the second young grandmother really calmed down," Princess Jingwei came back to her senses, glanced at Wang Qifang meaningfully, ignored her words just now, and continued according to her own plan: "Okay, presumably the matter of Li Ji's groceries is too small to enter the eyes of the second young grandmother. Then the palace will say one more thing, a few days ago, the second young grandmother sent someone to quietly send a human-shaped He Shou Wu nearly two feet long to the ninth sister, right. ”
Wang Qifang smiled and didn't answer, just nodded slightly, indicating that Princess Jingwei's message was accurate.
"Then Bengong wondered, where did the second young grandmother get such valuable medicinal materials?" Princess Jingwei lost the first battle, and her face no longer had the leisurely appearance just now, but asked aggressively: "Bought it?" No, it's hard to say elsewhere, but in this capital, if any store gets such a treasure, it will not be sold easily. Even if you are willing to make a move, which pharmacy is it? ”
Speaking of this, Princess Jingwei paused deliberately, carefully watching Wang Qifang's reaction. I don't know if what she said is not straightforward enough, why is this Second Grandma Zhao's expression still so calm?
Secretly gritting her teeth, Princess Jingwei decided to change her previous routine, and said straight to the point: "This palace has investigated in both the capital and Qingzhou, and in the past ten years, there has never been such a rare humanoid He Shou Wu in the pharmacies of the two places. Therefore, the He Shou Wu you gave to the ninth sister was definitely not bought. ”
"Someone else's gift? It's impossible, because the second young grandmother has hardly been out of the house before this spring, and the interpersonal interaction is even more pitiful, so no one must have given you such valuable medicinal herbs. ”
"Hehe, it was neither bought nor given by someone, could it be that the second young grandmother 'planted' it herself?"
After talking for a long time, Princess Jingwei finally said the center of gravity, she pinched off a blooming peony flower, put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, her expression was very intoxicated, and her mouth was not idle, "It's just that the second young grandmother is far away in Zhuangzi in Ling County, although she has planted a lot of fruits, vegetables and grains, she has never planted a single medicinal herb, let alone He Shou Wu."
When Wang Qifang heard this, she chuckled in her heart: What does Princess Jingwei mean by this, is she doubting the origin of He Shou Wu that she sent?
Hiss~~ Damn it, she was careless
At the beginning, Wang Qifang wanted to send some expensive gifts to the ninth princess, in order to thank the ninth princess for her righteous help that day, considering that the ninth princess was born in the royal family and was deeply favored by today, there must be a lot of precious and rare objects in the family.
After thinking about it, Wang Qifang suddenly thought that Zijuan once said that the ninth princess had a difficult birth when she gave birth a few years ago, and after careful rescue by the medical women, she barely picked up a life, but she was injured and could not be cured repeatedly. In her space, there are large swaths of precious medicinal materials, not to mention the good condition, but more importantly, the medicinal effect is excellent.
So, Wang Qifang asked Qingyun, who was well versed in pharmacology, and learned that He Shou Wu has the effect of treating postpartum diseases, so she went to the Baicao Garden in the space to dig up a He Shou Wu that has been planted for the longest time, and after unearthing, she was pleasantly surprised to find that this He Shou Wu is not only big, but also if you look carefully, it is still a human shape, so she knew that she had dug up the baby, and quickly wrapped it in red and sent it to the Nine Princesses in person.
After the ninth princess saw it, she was very happy, and she was not polite to Wang Qifang, and accepted He Shou Wu happily......
Wang Qifang came and went carefully, for fear that someone would discover the secret of the space, and even the closest Mama Zhao would hide it. Unexpectedly, someone still found out the clue.
"What? The second young grandmother still refuses to say? Where did you come from? Princess Jingwei finally saw Wang Qifang's face showing a different color, and her heart suddenly burst into happiness, she pressed step by step, "Oh~~ By the way, I heard that the second young grandmother has a deep Buddha fate, and even the rare Bodhi tree can be obtained, not to mention this little He Shou Wu?" It's just that this palace has never understood, how exactly did the Buddha give you the Bodhi Zishu and He Shou Wu? Or did it come out of nowhere? Kindness? ”
Wang Qifang frowned slightly, and after being silent for a moment, she suddenly chuckled, "It's really an honor to be a concubine, to be favored by Princess Jingwei, and everything is paid attention to by Princess Jingwei." Originally, these were trivial things, and the concubine didn't want to talk about it. However, since the princess has said this, if the concubine still doesn't explain, she may be mistaken for some kind of 'demon'.
The Bodhi tree was bred from a Bodhi seed left by the concubine's mother, and as for how it was bred, because it involved the secrets of the family, the concubine could not tell him; As for the He Shou Wu, it is indeed planted by the concubine herself, if Princess Jingwei is willing to go to the hot spring Zhuangzi of the concubine to play, the concubine will personally lead Princess Jingwei to the 'Baicao Garden' to have a look."
"Grow your own? How can it be? Hongu Ming-" Princess Jingwei blurted out in a gaffe, and when she realized that she was almost exposing the 'secret agents' in her hands, she hurriedly swallowed the words that followed.
In fact, she did send someone to check, and the people who returned to her were really good, and there were no medicinal herbs planted in the Zhuangzi in Lingxian County at all
Could it be that Wang Qifang lied?
"Okay, I've long heard that a hot spring has been dug out in the Zhuangzi of the second young grandmother, and it is comfortable to soak in a hot spring on this cold day," Princess Jingwei decided to go and see it for herself, "I just don't know, when will it be convenient to go to the palace?" ”
She wants to see that Wang Qifang really has such a great ability, and she can build a medicine garden out of thin air. If she caught Wang Qifang telling a lie, then don't blame her Princess Jingwei for being ruthless, when the time comes, she will have to put forward twice as many conditions as today, otherwise, she will have to ask the master to catch the demon.
"The princess is here, that is the glory of the concubine, after the hot spring Zhuangzi is built, the concubine will be the first to send you an invitation" Fortunately, there is a place in the hot spring Zhuangzi where the women's army is stationed, outsiders can't enter, and she can take the opportunity to fake.
"I'm waiting, it's just, don't take too long" I will send someone to the hot spring Zhuangzi today to stare at it to see what tricks Wang Qifang can play.
The two of them smiled like flowers, but secretly they were thinking about their own thoughts.
……
In the evening, the peony garden.
"Second young grandmother, the subordinates have investigated clearly"
Qingfeng came in from the outside with a cold air, ignoring the dust on his face, and bowed down to Wang Qifang.
"Hard work, Ziyuan, warm up your body with a cup of hot tea for Qingfeng," Wang Qifang wore a homely blue floral jacket on a white background, and sat casually on the big kang near the window, on which the account books taken back from Li Ji were stacked, and Amethyst, who had just finished the account, stood aside with a disgruntled face.
"Grandma Xie Er," Qingfeng took the teacup, drank the tea in three or two sips, handed the empty cup to Ziyuan again, and arched his hand: "My subordinates followed Li Huaien out of the city all the way to a farm not far from the capital...... According to local farmers, this small village called Lijiazhuang has more than 260 acres of fertile land, and it is the dowry of Li Huaien's eldest daughter-in-law, Qiu Niang.
It's just that the subordinates heard that this Qiu Niang's maiden family is not in the capital, but in a remote Guanwai, except for when he bought the land, there was a person who claimed to be Qiu Niang's eldest brother to go through the procedures, but when Qiu Niang got married, this eldest brother did not show up.
In addition, in addition to this farm, Qiu Niang also married three shops, which are located in the east and west cities, and I heard that the business is quite prosperous. The three shops were looked at and inquired about the surrounding merchants, and it was said that the three shops were not bought in the same year, but were bought 18 years ago, 11 years ago, and 6 years ago. The handler is also Qiu Niang's eldest brother. ”
"Oh? Is there anything else. ”
"Well, there's one more point," Qingfeng rubbed his nose and said with a little hesitation, "However, this is not what my subordinates heard, but a little opinion of my subordinates...... The subordinates felt that Qiu Niang's maiden family was very far-sighted, and it seemed that she had already foreseen that she could give birth to a daughter, and her daughter would marry into the capital. Otherwise, how could he help her buy a dowry in the capital when her daughter was not yet born? ”
"Smack"
Wang Qifang patted the kang table, the matter has been investigated to this point, if she can't guess it again, then she is a fool.
Thinking of the shop that her mother left to save her life, she was greedy for ten ** by a black-hearted Diao slave, she hated it so much, and during the day, she was calculated by Princess Jingwei, and the anger in Wang Qifang's chest became more and more intense, "I wanted to live quietly, but these people ...... It's just that my aunt can bear it, but my uncle can't bear it."
