Chapter 115: Muddy Waters

Ning Shu stood behind several people with her head down, and her situation was even more embarrassing than the few maids standing behind her.

Concubine Xu sat on the only remaining chair without hesitation, then pretended to be surprised and glanced at Ning Shu, and asked the maidservant next to her: "What's the matter with you?" Don't you see that there's one chair missing? ”

"Slave and maid, go now." The maidservant immediately walked out of the pavilion, and after a short time, she found a small stool for Ning Shu.

"Please forgive Aunt Man, there are so many guests in the house today, only this small stool used by the cook to light the fireβ€”β€”"

The three ladies couldn't help but smile, but Concubine Xu turned pale, "How can this be?" Hurry up and tell the prince, and let the prince personally send someone to bring a chair from the main hall. ”

Ning Shu had already slashed Xie Yunyan with a thousand knives in her heart.

and Zhao Zhenhai.

Is it so difficult to go out and bring a lady in the main room?

She twisted and pressed the small stool in the handmaid's hand, "It's okay, it's already a gift from the mother that the concubine has a place to sit, how can you trouble the prince again?" ”

"It turns out that Manniang is still a general knowledge, no wonder Master Zhao will take you with him when he travels." Concubine Xu stroked her sideburns contrivedly, turned around and smiled at a few ladies: "There is a lot of panic in the hall, invite a few people to come to the garden, a few people won't be unhappy, right?" ”

A woman dressed in a purple dress laughed with her, "How come? I would like to thank my mother for her kindness. ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Ning Shu in the corner, her eyes widening.

Concubine Xu drank the tea without moving, her mind turned, and she smiled at the woman: "Mrs. Chen's face has been much better recently, what tricks don't hide it from us?" ”

Another woman chimed in: "I just wanted to say that Mrs. Chen's complexion is getting better and better. ”

Mrs. Chen wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said faintly proudly: "Last month, my husband went to Kyoto, and by the way, I brought back some rouge from the Kyoto rouge shop, and there is a jade gel paste that is very useful. ”

"Look, where is Mrs. Chen's complexion that can be presented by jade gel cream? Obviously, he has won a lot of favor from Lord Chen. Concubine Xu joked.

Ning Shu listened carefully on the side.

She remembered that it was the main rouge of the shop that Long Shan frequented.

Unexpectedly, in this remote Yuzhou, it has become a first-class product.

Mrs. Chen's eyes darkened, and they returned to their original state in an instant.

Is it jade gel ointment, she knows better than others.

Lord Chen hadn't been to her yard for months, and he had brought a skinny horse from Kyoto to pet him all day, and I was afraid that he couldn't even remember what she looked like.

As a result, she glanced at Ning Shu with even more disdain.

Concubine Xu also noticed the change in Mrs. Chen's complexion, tried to change the topic, and asked unintentionally: "What is Lord Chen going to Kyoto for?" ”

Mrs. Chen replied without thinking about it: "It is said that something happened in Kyoto, and the master must solve it himself." As for what happened, I don't know as a woman. ”

Ning Shu sat on the small stool obediently, and the four people in front of her chatted enthusiastically, and no one paid attention to her expression.

Something happened in Kyoto a while ago?

The biggest thing is that the Hou Mansion of Shu'an was raided.

Could it be that this Lord Chen has colluded with Shu Anhou?

As soon as this idea came to mind, it was vetoed by Ning Shu.

The official silver in Shu Anhou's private collection has been found, and the death has been decided.

The remote Lord Chen went and couldn't turn things around at all.

But intuition told Ning Shu that Lord Chen's entry into Beijing must have a great relationship with the destruction of the Shu'an Hou Mansion.

I didn't expect that the little Yuzhou could still be involved in the muddy waters in the capital, so I had to inform Xie Yunyan as soon as possible.

In another remote room, Xie Yunyan looked at Zhang Junshou with solemn eyes.

"Lord County Guard, the villain is in the silk business, and the fat villain in Kyoto can't gnaw it, but Xiliang has a lot of money and a lack of silk craftsmanship."

He suddenly got up and shook his head at the county guard, "The villain implores the county keeper to show the villain a clear way, whether Gucheng County is worth the villain's trouble." ”

Zhang Junshou smiled, "What is Master Zhao talking about?" You businessmen, do you still need to take the 'official road' for business where you want to do it? ”

Xie Yunyan said in fear: "The county guard doesn't know, the tiger is difficult to suppress the snake, a few days ago, the important minister of the Kyoto cabinet was assassinated by mountain bandits, and it is said that there is no corpse. The dignified court officials are still like this, and if the villain does not have the protection of adults, I am afraid it will be difficult to even get out of the mountainβ€”β€”"

Zhang Junshou saw the urgency in Xie Yunyan's eyes, but his tone was still leisurely, "I heard that those mountain bandits are doing big business, and they can't look down on small people, I don't know how big a business Lord Zhao wants to make?" ”

Xie Yunyan frowned, as if he had made a lot of determination, gritted his teeth, and explained to Zhang Junshou: "The villain has a complete channel to Jiangnan in Pingcheng, if the channel from Pingcheng to Gucheng County is also complete, presumably in less than three years, the villain will be rich in the entire Yuzhou region, and even the entire Qi country." ”

"Master Zhao has such a big appetite." Zhang Junshou snorted lightly.

Xie Yunyan hurriedly said: "If the villain becomes a rich armor, then Zhang County Shou must be above the rich armor." The villain is willing to take out fifty percent of the profits to honor the county keeper! ”

Zhang Junshou's eyes fluctuated for the first time.

Fifty percent?

That's even higher than the prince expected!

He guarded Gucheng County, not that he didn't want to do some business that made money quickly.

It's just that Yuzhou's local specialties are scarce, and the climate is indescribable.

There's really nothing to resell.

As for the out-of-town onesβ€”

The prince recuperated and did not dare to attract people who did not know the bottom of the matter to enter the palace.

But Zhao Zhenhai is different.

He is a "local" in the Yuzhou region, and his direct channel to Jiangnan is also very tempting-

"Let me think about it."

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Junshou still felt that he should discuss it with King Xun and give Zhao Zhenhai a result.

Xie Yunyan was a little excited, "If you want to get it, but if it is successful, please ask Zhang Junshou to give the villain a clear word, that mountain bandit-"

Zhang Junshou waved his shriveled hand, stared at Xie Yunyan and smiled: "How could a shrewd person like Lord Zhao be interested in these things?" Although Lord Zhao is relieved, if this matter is done, those mountain bandits should not worry. ”

Xie Yunyan nodded clearly, and gave a thumbs up to Zhang Junshou, "The Lord of the County Shou is really powerful, and it is really right for the villain to defect to the adult." ”

"It's too early to say this, now that the prince's birthday is not over, when there are few people and quiet, we will discuss it carefully."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xie Yunyan nodded hurriedly, and an undercurrent of temptation came to an end.

Zhang Junshou no longer seems to have doubts about his identity.

And Xie Yunyan also determined that the person who assigned the mountain bandits to kill him was Zhang Junshou.

Seeing that Zhang Junshou's back was getting farther and farther away, Xie Yunyan straightened his back, and his eyes were deep.
