Chapter 234: The Queen's Chess Game
Ye Shaoke looked up at Yuexiu and smiled.
"Shopkeeper Moon, how can you think that I still earn it? It's only 5,000 taels here, and the one I just gave to the Seventh Prince is 50,000 taels. If you want to earn, it is also earned by the Seven Princes! If you want to make money, work hard in the future, and I won't treat you badly. ”
When everyone heard Ye Shaoke say this, they couldn't help but look at Leng Linghao's side. Leng Linghao coughed a few times in embarrassment, pretending to be fine.
"All the things in today have been taken care of, then please ask the Seventh Prince, you can find me someone to do the decoration and those carpenters, and tomorrow I plan to start decorating the storefront."
Being named by Ye Shaoke as a coolie, Leng Linghao was already accustomed to it, nodded helplessly, and turned his head directly to Le Xiu: "This matter will be handed over to you, remember to find the best decoration craftsman in the capital, your girl is not short of silver." ”
Ye Shao shook his head silently, put the silver in the counter directly into a box, and directly took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels at the cuff and handed it to Yuexiu.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you, I'll come over at noon tomorrow, you bring the person who decorates, and I'll explain it to her." You have these silver tickets, and you can buy whatever you need to buy when the time comes. ”
Being able to get such an important commission from the new master, Yuexiu was very excited. nodded again and again and promised that it would be done.
Ye Shaoke is not familiar with the capital, and he was sent by Leng Linghao when he went back, and when he returned to the inn, Ye Shaoke blackmailed Leng Linghao for a meal, and decisively drove her away.
In the palace of the Dacheng Dynasty, in the Fengyi Palace, Helian Zhuyi stretched out her slender and white hand, closed her eyes and leaned on the chaise longue with a look of enjoyment, and asked the palace maid to dye her Kodan, and her personal palace maid "Die'er" kneeling below was trying to repay something.
After the Kodan on both hands was dyed, He Lianzhu held it in front of him with satisfaction, and admired it elegantly and nobly.
"Let's all go down."
The queen waved her hand and said lightly, and the more than a dozen palace maids on the side of Hou all bowed respectfully and retired.
"What's the news?"
The queen didn't even look at the butterfly kneeling on the ground, and sighed softly at her nails, and said coldly.
"Back to Niangniang, there is news that Ye Shaoke has rushed to the capital from Jinxian County, and it happened very suddenly, and I don't know if I want to recapture the Night King."
Die'er told the queen the news reported by the people below, and the queen didn't react much after hearing it, but a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"I can't do it."
Die'er knelt respectfully and didn't dare to interject, and after a while, the queen slowly spoke lazily.
"The men sent are following, I want to know all the news about her."
"Yes, slave and maid command."
"Why hasn't that girl in the Xiao family moved recently? The mourning family has created such a good opportunity for her, why don't you know that she is close to the night king with the identity of the princess of the night? Isn't the emperor worried in vain? ”
"Yes, the slave will do it, and I will definitely let Xiao Wei'er meet with the Night King."
Hearing Die'er say this, the queen waved her hand and let her go down.
In the huge "Fengyi Palace", Queen Helianzhu remembered that she was lying elegantly on the chaise longue, smiling, and seemed to be very satisfied with the chess game she had set.
In Xiao's mansion, Xiao Wei'er is dressed in brocade clothes and jade clothes, with exquisite makeup, and her whole body is full of nobility and elegance! After the emperor decreed the marriage of Xiao Wei'er and Leng Lingye, Xiao Wei'er's mother Liu put all her energy on her, and there were originally four people around her, but now she is directly promoted to eight!
There is a poetry banquet in Shangshu Mansion today, it just so happens that Liu and Xiao Wei'er were warmly invited by Mrs. Shangshu Fuchen, and today the mother and daughter got up early in the morning to dress up, thinking that they wanted to come out on top among that group of women!
After Liu Shizhi was given a marriage to Leng Lingye from his own daughter, he also got rid of a lot, and the vanity in his heart was even stronger! Now her favorite thing is to go to various mansions to participate in similar banquets, as long as their mother and son have appeared, they will definitely be the object of everyone's praise!
When the two went out, they were surrounded by more than a dozen maids, this pomp was really big, Mrs. Xiao ate in the backyard all day long, and showed how much she cared about her granddaughter becoming the princess of the night, but on the day of the order, Mrs. Xiao opened her mouth to reward Xiao Wei'er with some jewelry, and it was over.
Regarding the high profile of her daughter-in-law and granddaughter in recent days, Mrs. Xiao is even more indifferent. She prays every day that Nanhao can wear the good news as soon as possible, she is really afraid that the days of reuniting with her daughter are getting fewer and fewer, in recent days she found that her body is getting worse and worse, and it may also be caused by longing for a long time, she prays to the Buddha every day, just to see her daughter in her lifetime.
The backyard of Shangshu Mansion is extraordinary, in fact, today's banquet is mainly prepared for Xiao Wei'er, so the carriage of the Xiao family has just arrived at the door of Shangshu Mansion, and Mrs. Chen and all the guests are at the door to greet her.
"The general's wife is polite."
As soon as the mother and daughter got off the carriage, Mrs. Chen greeted each other warmly with a smile, and the official wives and family members who were invited to the banquet today behind her were all below their rank, so they all enthusiastically followed Mrs. Chen to greet Liu and Xiao Wei'er.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are polite." Xiao Wei'er greeted the elders obediently and sensibly, this is the minimum etiquette of the official eunuchs, even if they look down on these people, but the kung fu on the surface has to be in charge.
"Hey, Mrs. Liu is really blessed, looking at Miss Xiao's appearance, it's no wonder that even the Night King's heart can be recovered."
Mrs. Chen looked at Xiao Wei'er with a smile and said praisefully, making Xiao Yu'er's clothes look shy, and quickly lowered her head.
"Hey, I'm still shy! What a joy! The Night King is the god of war of our Dacheng Dynasty, and the marriage between the two of you is not a tiger for the emperor? Hehe, let's go inside, please. ”
After flipping through the compliments, the people surrounded the mother and daughter of the Xiao family into the backyard of Shangshu Mansion.
Mrs. Shangshu Fuchen's daughter-in-law, Zhong Qianchen, is sixteen years old this year, in fact, she has always liked the sixth prince Leng Lingyan, she is indifferent to Xiao Wei'er's marriage with the Night King, if she wasn't forced by her mother to accompany this arrogant Xiao Wei'er today, she wouldn't have bothered to deal with it.
"Sister Yu'er, come with my sister, my sister got the embroidery she likes a few days ago, and it's still double-sided, and I want to share it with my sister."
As soon as he arrived in the backyard, Zhong Tingchen enthusiastically pulled Xiao Wei'er to her yard, wanting to share the embroidery with her.
Xiao Wei'er looked at Liu's family, Liu nodded with a smile, and Xiao Wei'er went to her courtyard with this Zhong Tianchen.
Zhong Qianchen took out the double-sided embroidered gauze clothes that were placed in the cabinet and presented them in front of Xiao Wei'er.
"Sister Ming'er was given a marriage to His Royal Highness the Night King as she wished, which made many girls in the capital cry and break their hearts! Sister Ming'er is really a blessing. ”
Zhong Qianchen fiddled with this and that dress, and said flatteringly to Xiao Wei'er, which made Xiao Wei'er feel more and more proud!
"Hey, Sister Tingchen knows how to laugh at me, and I am also thanks to the grace of God to get my wish, but what about you, Sister Tingchen? Don't have the right person yet? I think the six princes are also beautiful. It just so happens that Sister Tingchen's Alluring appearance can match the Sixth Highness! ”
It's no secret that Zhong Tingchen likes Leng Lingyan. In their aristocratic circle, in fact, everyone knows it.
"You girl knows how to make fun of my sister, do you like this dress? I'm going to give it to Sister Yu'er as a gift, if Yu'er wears this double-sided peacock embroidered dress and appears in front of the Night King, the Night King will definitely love Yu'er.
In fact, as soon as this gauze was displayed, it amazed Xiao Wei'er's eyes! Hearing that Zhong Qianchen was going to give it to herself, Xiao Wei'er happily picked up the gauze dress, and her heart was overjoyed.
Soon, Xingxi's expression slowly became lost, and all this was seen by Zhong Tianchen.
"What's wrong with Sister Yu'er? How can you be so lost? Don't you like the congratulatory gifts your sister gave you? Zhong Qianchen asked Xiao Yu'er knowingly, with a worry on his face.
Xiao Wei'er pouted, and when she saw the sincere worry in Zhong Qianchen's eyes, she decided to say her psychological words.
"Sister Qianchen doesn't know, although my emperor is gracious, I have been married to His Royal Highness the Night King, and the holy decree has been issued for so long, but I haven't even seen the face of the Night King."
Hearing Xiao Wei'er say this, Zhong Tianchen sneered!
Did you see the Night King casually? If it weren't for the queen's gift, how would you pick up such a big bargain!
Although Zhong Qianchen thought so in his heart, his face showed a sympathetic look, and he stretched out his hands to pull Xiao Wei'er's little hand, holding it in the palm of his hand, with a look of concern.
"Sister Yu'er, don't be discouraged, this Night King is busy with business, isn't there news of turmoil on the border of Mozambique? His Royal Highness the Night King must have no time to meet with Sister Yu'er because of the shackles of those official affairs. ”
"Is that really the case?" Xiao Wei'er's face was innocent, looking at Zhong Tianchen, her eyes flashing with hope.
"Of course, Sister Yu'er is as beautiful as a fairy, by the way, my sister will change this dress tomorrow. Some time ago, I heard that the Night King would dine at the "No. 1 Restaurant in Beijing" every night, so why don't you try your luck and maybe have a chance encounter with the Night King. ”
At the instigation of Zhong Qianchen, Xiao Wei'er was completely convinced that it was not easy, and happily asked the stand-in maid to put away her clothes, and was already looking forward to tomorrow's encounter.
Ye Shaoke walked around the streets and alleys of the capital early this morning and saw a lot of antique businesses. I can't help but sigh at the wisdom of the ancients.
At noon, she went to the ready-to-wear shop, and Yuexiu and a craftsman were waiting in the store early.
