At this time, Jiang Yi was still dining in the Hehuan Palace, and she had a good conversation with Rong Ya, but she didn't know that she had inadvertently revealed a very important information, and this information was very likely to put Shen Che and herself to death.

Shen Che and the Empress Dowager Qin each had their own thoughts, and the other vassal kings were also smiling tigers, virtual and real, and no one could see through anyone.

But at this time, a conspiracy has been brewing in the Ning Palace, and an overwhelming net is also spreading out in all directions, enveloping this sky, no one can see it, but no one can escape.

The weather at the end of July is already the hottest time of the year in Daning, and every time at this time, the south is flooded, the north is seriously drought, and there is no grain harvest. However, since two years ago, the people of Daning have rarely been troubled by this.

The reason is the relocation of the people of Ji'an County and the construction of the southern embankment.

This dam integrates flood control, irrigation, and shipping, and even has the function of storing water, which can transport the stored water to the north through special channels, so that the land in the north can also be irrigated.

No one knows that the source of this idea is a woman named Yun Yao, and no one knows how many innocent people her intelligence saved in the catastrophe of that rainstorm raid.

At this time, Yun Yao didn't know that Shen Che in the capital had been exposed, and it was very likely that she would not be able to retreat with her whole body, but she had already found a breakthrough in Haoguo.

Because three days later, Queen Hao's father, Lord Qi Tianbao, really came to the door.

When there was a knock on the door of this small alley, Yun Yao knew that the person she was waiting for had finally come, and she did not live up to her and Gu Qingming's hard work to inquire about the news, and then set up this bureau and asked Qi Tianbao to enter the urn.

Sisi and Yun Yao both changed back into women's clothes, the two walked to the door and opened the door, and really saw Qi Tianbao standing at the door, so he said: "Master Qi is really trustworthy, if he really comes alone, please come in." ”

Qi Tianbao listened to the familiar voice, looked at the familiar face, and then suddenly realized: "You are the little scholar in Guiyunzhuang who came forward to provoke me?

"There is a reason for the incident, and I have to offend Master Qi, and I ask Master Qi for forgiveness. Yun Yao said respectfully, changing her rebelliousness that day and becoming very humble.

The two invited Master Qi in and asked him to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard, and there was a pot of tea on the stone table next to him, which was the Tianshan Yunwu carefully cooked by Lu Yingquan, which had the same taste as that day in Guiyunzhuang.

"This girl, I'm here to play chess with your son-in-law, I don't know where your son-in-law is?" Qi Tianbao asked.

"Please ask Master Qi to drink this cup of tea, and my son-in-law will come out to meet. Yun Yao poured Qi Tianbao a cup of tea and said so.

Qi Tianbao took a sip lightly with the idea that what he had come to be safe, but it was this sip of tea that made him taste the taste before, exactly the same as the one he had drunk in Guiyunzhuang three days ago.

However, in the past few days, every time he went to Guiyunzhuang, he wanted to drink this kind of excellent tea again, but he couldn't drink it anymore. According to the shopkeeper, the new guy only worked here for one day, and the purpose was to make a pot of tea for Master Qi himself.

At first, when Qi Tianbao heard this, he was very unimpressed, thinking that it was just a hairy boy who came here and wanted to use this method to attract his attention. But now, he drank tea with the same taste, and found someone according to the address written in the letter, and then he realized that whether it was tea or chess, I am afraid that it is a trap dug by others.

But he jumped off without hesitation.

"Girl, try your best to bring the old man here, and if you have anything to say, just say it. After all, Qi Tianbao is a person who has been in the business for many years, even if he didn't understand it at first, he should have figured it out now, so he asked directly.

"Master Qi, don't worry, the little woman has something, please take a look at it first. Yun Yao said, and then took out the jade pendant that the queen gave her some time ago from her arms and put it in front of Qi Tianbao.

Qi Tianbao looked at the jade pendant, and the word "Qi" on it was impressive. He knew this jade pendant, because this jade pendant was handed to his daughter when she got married. In order to let her have something to rely on, in case something happens, she can also take the jade pendant and ask her mother's family for help.

But I didn't expect that today in the hands of this strange woman, I saw the jade pendant of the Qi family.

"This thing...... How did you come here?" The expression on Qi Tianbao's face became serious, and Yun Yao's eyes were also full of vigilance, he didn't think that the woman in front of him would know his daughter, so the origin of this jade pendant was of course very strange.

"A few days ago, the husband of the little woman stopped a crazy carriage on the street, and there was a lady in the carriage who was pregnant with Rokka, and the fetus showed signs of slipping after the bumps. The little woman knew a little about medicine, so she helped the lady, and later the lady gave the jade pendant to the little woman, so that when the little woman was in trouble and needed help, she took the jade pendant to the Hao Palace to find her. Yun Yao briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter, and then spoke again, "Looking at this jade pendant, the identity of this lady must be self-evident." ”

"So, are you looking for the old man with the jade pendant today, do you have something to ask for?" Qi Tianbao misunderstood Yun Yao's meaning, thinking that Yun Yao was looking for him with the jade pendant in order to ask him for help.

Yun Yao shook her head and said, "Master Qi misunderstood, I didn't have something to ask for, I wanted to do a business with Master Qi. ”

Qi Tianbao is a businessman, when he hears the word "business", his eyes will involuntarily shine brightly, and the woman in front of him, who is not good-looking but has a smart mind, also happened to arouse his interest and made him want to do business with her.

"I don't know what kind of business the girl is talking about, but the old man is willing to listen to it. Master Qi spoke, his eyes were also full of curiosity.

Yun Yao glanced at Sisi, then saw Sisi nodding and walked towards the backyard, and soon, Gu Qingming came out of it, stood still at the stone table, and saluted Master Qi before sitting down to discuss.

Since Yun Yao had mentioned her husband in her words before, Gu Qingming's appearance did not make him suspect anything, and the three of them sat on the stone bench under the plane tree and drank the tea cooked by Lu Yingquan himself, which had a different flavor.

"The deal that the little woman wants to do is the child in the womb of the queen's mother, the hope of the future of Haoguo. When Yun Yao said this, the expression on her face became very solemn.

Similarly, Master Qi's expression also became serious, because the issue of King Hao's heirs is not only a heart disease of King Hao Shen Yan, but also a heart disease of the Qi family.

If the three queens before and after can't give birth to children for King Hao, then how will the eyes of the world view their Qi family?

Therefore, Yun Yao can be regarded as grasping the sore spot of Master Qi, and also grasping the seven inches of King Hao, if the problem of heirs can be easily solved, why worry that King Hao will not agree to form an alliance? What's more, Yun Yao has a hunch that in the palace of King Hao not far away, the mastermind hidden in the shadows must have an unknown secret, and may be planning a shocking conspiracy.

Master Qi stayed in this remote and uninhabited courtyard for nearly two hours, and the tea on the table had already run out, but their conversation was not over.

A bold guess, a chess game planned for the Shen family, also unfolded in this small courtyard, and no one knew that the person who planned all this was this woman who walked out but didn't look good, how powerful her heart was.

After a long time, Master Qi raised his head from his contemplation and said to Yun Yao, "If what you said is true, then this matter is not so simple. Miss Yao, why should I believe you?"

"I really don't have anything to make you believe me, so Master Qi, you can only gamble on this matter. Bet that you care about the child in the queen's womb, bet on your importance to the Qi family, and bet that I won't deceive you. Yun Yao opened his mouth and said, "But Master Qi, you have to think clearly, I am not helping you unconditionally, I have my own purpose, I need to get a large amount of money from the Qi family." ”

Qi Tianbao looked at Yun Yao, thinking about the authenticity of this matter in his mind.

If Yun Yao was really unreliable, then she would not have proposed to do business, and she would not have proposed to ask the Qi family for a large sum of silver. After all, for Qi Tianbao, if he really gave silver, and Yun Yao couldn't do it, it would be to lose his wife and soldiers. But since Yun Yao dared to speak like this, it showed that she had a certain degree of confidence in her heart, but it increased a lot of credibility.

"Well, the most important thing for a businessman is accurate vision and decisive courage, the old man chooses to believe in Miss A-Yao. Qi Tianbao said, "Since it's a business, then you have to buy and sell, I, Qi, am willing to make a friend of the girl, but business is business, and our agreement can't be sloppy." ”

"Master Qi, the agreement has already been prepared, please take a look. Gu Qingming on the side took out two pieces of paper from his sleeve, handed them to Qi Tianbao, and spoke.

The agreement is in duplicate, one for each party, signed and sealed, and it is considered to be effective.

Qi Tianbao looked at this agreement and couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that this girl called Ayao really calculated everything, knowing that he would definitely come, knowing that he would definitely agree to cooperate, so he prepared the contract in advance, so that he didn't even have room to regret it.

And the silver on the agreement is not a small amount, he Qi is very rich, but to take out so much money at once to give it to a young girl, he also feels very painful.

"This is a hundred thousand taels of silver tickets, which is considered a deposit according to the requirements of the agreement. After signing the agreement, Master Qi asked, "Miss Yao, when will I be able to enter the palace with the old man?"

"Now. Yun Yao said, her eyes flashing with determination and persistence.

And it was this kind of Yun Yao that made Qi Tianbao trust a little more. If it is said that after signing the agreement, Yun Yao will still push back and enter the palace in a few days, then Qi Tianbao will definitely suspect that Yun Yao has other plans, but now, Yun Yao is frank and open, but it seems that he has the heart of a villain to live the belly of a gentleman.

"Master Qi, Neizi is taking a risk when he goes to the palace, and I ask Master Qi to take care of it. Gu Qingming looked at Yun Yao, who was about to enter the Hao Palace, and said to Master Qi with his hand, his tone was sincere, he was really worried about Yun Yao.
