Chapter 380: Mrs. Yuan sacrificed her wealth for her life

And Jiang Yao's class doesn't have so much leisure, she still has to go to the street to take a look after eating, maybe she will encounter something interesting, these two deliberately keep competing for favor in front of her, she is afraid that she will waste their toss.

Jiang Yao ate two bites casually, then walked out, and when he walked downstairs, more than a dozen officials looked over, some were suspicious, some were disdainful, and more were the cold eyes of Yuan Ping and his party.

Jiang Yao went to the street, in fact, she also wanted to see if she could catch a fish as bait, she was aimlessly shopping in the downtown area, and when she met someone who was eye-catching, she squandered it regardless of the price.

Yun Sleeve hugged a lot of things, feeling that his mother was crazy, seeing that Jiang Yao was going to continue to stuff the goods into her arms, he couldn't help asking: "Niangniang, you can buy some novelty gadgets, even buy everything." ”

"This and this, and that."

Jiang Yao pointed at each other, which made Yun Sleeve even more helpless, sure enough, the rich lady just couldn't go on the street.

The woman who was secretly observing on the side had been following Jiang Yao since she walked out of the official post, and she had been following for two streets, looking at the appearance of spending money, she stabilized her mind and walked out of the small alley.

At this time, the street was very lively, the shouting came and went, the woman walked out looking left and right, Jiang Yao was holding a hairpin in front of a small stall, and the woman said in Jiang Yao's ear: "This lady, our Mrs. Yuan is invited."

Jiang Yao smiled expectantly in her heart, but this frightened Yun Sleeve, and immediately blocked in front of Jiang Yao and said, "Which family are you?" So ignorant of the rules? You think anyone can talk to us! ”

The woman understood for a while, glanced at the carriage in the distance, and said: "Our family is Lord Yin Yuanping of Zhongyang Mansion, and our wife knows that Niangniang is coming to Zhongyang, so she has come to invite her, and she has already set a teahouse on the side, and I hope that Niangniang will appreciate the light." ”

Jiang Yao glanced at Yun Sleeve, stopped her from speaking again, looked at the rich woman holding her head in the carriage in the distance, and said, "Lead the way." ”

"Yes, mother, please."

Yun Sleeve followed closely behind Jiang Yao, and around the corner of the market was the teahouse, Jiang Yao followed the woman to the pavilion and entered the Tianzi private room.

As soon as the door opened, there was a blue-blue woman inside, graceful and luxurious, dressed in the most fashionable silk brocade at the moment, and the style was so unique that it was Yaochi's clothes.

The workmanship is exquisite, and there is no doubt that it is genuine at a glance, Jiang Yao couldn't help but marvel at the wealth of the Yuan family in her heart.

"The women of the people ask the lady to say goodbye to the lady and the mother, and the mother is blessed and healthy."

Jiang Yao whispered "um" and walked inside, the slave behind her gently closed the door, Jiang Yao sat on the main seat on the side, and Mrs. Yuan poured tea and served it in front of Jiang Yao.

"I have long heard that Niangniang has unparalleled beauty, and she is pampered, but now when I see it, it is really better to see it, and it is even more shocking, no wonder I can be so favored by the emperor."

When Mrs. Yuan saw Jiang Yao for the first time on the street, she had already made up her mind, but she was just a profligate woman.

"Your clothes are not bad, I guess I bought them from Yaochi in the capital at a great price."

"Niangniang's vision is excellent, it is indeed my family who entrusted someone to buy, I really admire your vision, so I bought it to see one or two."

Jiang Yao took a sip of tea, and said with a slight smile on the corner of her lips: "Say, why did you call me here?" ”

When Mrs. Yuan heard this, she immediately smiled, lifted her skirt and knelt down, and said: "Please let the mother hang the curtain, yesterday my husband Yuan Ping did not return overnight, and today at this time, I am very afraid." ”

"This is the emperor's decision, and I have no choice."

Jiang Yao put the cup on the table, chuckled and looked at Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Yuan bit her lower lip, and continued: "My husband has a good character and has won the hearts of the people, and the Yihe Gang is also under his control, suppressing the Wan Yong Gang, but the husband is an honest and honest minister. ”

"This is all a state affair, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, I believe you also know, I can't be the emperor's master."

"Niangniang, you are the one who favors the sixth palace, and the people in the streets and alleys don't know the prestige of your concubine, and even the queen's position is within reach. My husband's affairs, if you can come to the rescue, our Yihe Gang will definitely help in the future. ”

is just a woman, so it seems that she is also a fierce general, Jiang Yao was a little interested, and only smiled silently. As soon as Mrs. Yuan saw that there was a way, she immediately took out a large amount of silver ticket from her cuff and gave it away.

Jiang Yao smiled and pinched it with his hand to unfold it, glanced at it, and his heart suddenly sank, but he still said lightly: "One million taels." ”

Mrs. Yuan looked at Jiang Yao's face, that bleak expression, without any emotion, and couldn't help but feel pain in her heart, and slowly took out a silver ticket from her arms.

"For only two million taels, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy a few pieces of Yaochi's clothes and jewelry."

That's right, Jiang Yao also recently learned that Duan Jingyan secretly changed the pricing of clothes after the New Year, and a set will cost hundreds of thousands of taels, and those who can't afford it won't enter, those who buy it will go in, and those who can't buy it will have to look at the way.

Jiang Yao also spurned Duan Jingyan for taking her shop behind her back at that time, collecting money privately, and the two profits handed over by Yao Chi every month were enough for the major expenses of the harem.

And what Duan Jingyan wanted to see was who could buy it, track it down, and check it one by one.

Mrs. Yuan's face turned even paler, she didn't expect Jiang Yao's appetite to be so big, this was to empty out their family's foundation.

"Niangniang, you have pity on us, there is an eighty-year-old mother at home, and a few young children, and a family of more than 300 people to eat."

"Then there are indeed too many people in your family."

When Mrs. Yuan saw that Jiang Yao said this, she couldn't turn back, she didn't satisfy her appetite, how could she ask the adult to come back? Now that the official post is sealed, there are layers of forbidden troops outside, and she is a weak woman, even if she goes to shout injustice, no one can hear her.

He simply gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, took out all the silver tickets from his arms, put them on the table with trembling hands and said: "Please ask the mother to intercede for the emperor and let go of my family, this is already all the family wealth of my Yuan family, and there is no more." ”

After speaking, he sat on the ground weakly, looking at Jiang Yao with empty eyes, Jiang Yao smiled at the corner of his mouth and checked the silver ticket, a full ten million taels. It is twice as much as the national treasury, but it is really a moth, and it has enriched itself and pitted the country.

"Done! I understand the filial piety of the Yuan family, and I will tell the emperor when I go back, but what the final result is, it is the emperor's business. ”

Jiang Yao smiled with satisfaction, helped Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Yuan looked at Jiang Yao longingly, and said: "As long as Niangniang is willing to say a word for her husband in front of the saint, the lives of the women and husbands and more than 300 people will be handed over to Niangniang." ”

"It's a little serious, I'm going to go back if I have nothing to do, if I'm late, I'm afraid the emperor should be in a hurry."

Mrs. Yuan immediately opened the door for Jiang Yao, Jiang Yao was about to step out of the door, and turned around as if she remembered something, and said: "If the emperor reproaches and asks, who is in charge of the chaos and wants to cover up the ......"
