"County lord, eight years ago, General Gu Wuxing, the general of Xingcheng, was exposed by the deputy general as collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the emperor ordered the three clans to be razed. When the horse was young, he and General Gu once worshiped the old general as a teacher, and then General Gu went to the border pass, and the horse abandoned Rong to throw a pen, and worshiped under the sect of Fang Da Confucian......"

Yu Menghuan nodded as she listened.

The surname is Gu~

That's a coincidence.

"What does this have to do with King Kang?"

"The subordinates don't know, but the subordinates have already sent someone to sneak into King Kang's mansion to investigate the situation."

Yu Menghuan's eyebrows frowned slightly, "What about Zhao Wenju?" ”

"Zhao Wenju has been busy with business affairs recently, a grocery store, a perfume shop, the grocery store is especially popular with the people, and the perfume shop is a place where the nobles of the family often go, and people come and go every day, which can be called a daily gold."

"If one family does it, the business is naturally good, if the family does this business, who cares about him?"

Yu Menghuan laughed lowly, "Ming'er asked Qingfeng to make an appointment with the Zheng family, gave him a few prescriptions and told him to do it too, and by the way, let the Zheng family make some trouble for Zhao Wenju, so that his shop could not be opened for the time being." ”

"Yes. The subordinates also found that Zhao Wenju had been buying saltpeter on a large scale recently, and he didn't know why. ”

"It's getting hotter, presumably to make ice...... Saltpeter? How much did he acquire? ”

"The subordinates didn't check it, but I think it's not a minority."

It's bold.

Yu Menghuan's eyes crossed a dark light, "You go and find two Taoist priests who know how to make alchemy for the county lord and place them in the suburbs of Beijing, the county lord will be of great use." ”

"Yes."

The secret guard didn't ask why, but saw that Yu Menghuan didn't have any other instructions, so he got up and left.

It's also a coincidence.

As soon as the front foot of the dark guard left, Zhu Shizi came in with the back foot, and his face was full of joy, "Lord Wenning, it's a good thing!" ”

"Made?"

"It's done! According to the recipe you gave, it is really such a crystal clear and shining material, which is almost exactly the same as the feel of warm jade, warm and delicate, and it is also very well shaped! ”

Zhu Shizi smiled and said: "And it is not difficult to fire, and the cost is low. ”

Yu Menghuan said a light "um" with a flat expression, "Then what do I want?" ”

"Look."

Zhu Shizi smiled and pointed to the two wooden boxes he brought, "I promise I won't let you down." ”

When I opened it, I saw a wooden box containing a complete set of tea sets, made of special materials that shimmered in the sun. Today, I like the landscape, there is a landscape pattern on the tea set, and the other set is painted with plum, which is the preference of the original owner.

"And that's not all."

Zhu Shizi sold a pass, asked someone to send a pot of water, poured it straight into the teapot, and in an instant, the teapot seemed to be smart, gurgling water, plum shadow swaying, making people look surprised and happy.

In her high-tech world, it was very simple, but in ancient times, when all aspects of technical materials were relatively backward, it was not easy to make this thing.

Yu Menghuan couldn't help but be a little surprised, "It is worthy of the Zhu family, who has been in the jade business for many years, and the level of this craftsman is far inferior to that of the Internal Affairs Office." ”

"It's just a trick."

Zhu Shizi patted another wooden box, "This set will be given to the emperor by Lord Lao." ”

"Well said."

Yu Menghuan didn't refuse, closed the wooden box, "I'll go in the afternoon." If you want to open a shop, you have to do it as soon as possible, after all, Zhao Wenju is preparing to open a glass shop. ”

"It will be up and running in seven or eight days at most."

"Good. But I wish the prince, if he takes over the official position, this business matter ......"

"I understand, my mother is in charge of the business, and the major shops in the house are also my mother's dowry, and they have nothing to do with me." Zhu Shizi said very well.

After all, the law of the Great Feast stipulates that officials are not allowed to do business. But the law governs heaven and earth, and it cannot control the dowry of the lady of the lord's family.

Many officials are taking advantage of this loophole, and Zhu Shizi is not alone.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Soon, Zhu Shizi walked away, and Yu Menghuan immediately took a carriage into the palace - it just so happened that she also wanted to ask the emperor about Gu Wuxing.

But before she walked in, she heard a crackling sound inside, and her footsteps paused slightly, and she turned her head to look at the old acquaintance on the side - the emperor's personal servant Zhao Gonggong.

"Father-in-law Zhao."

Yu Menghuan smiled at the other party, stuffed a money bag, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Emperor is not happy?" ”

Can you be happy?

Gonggong Zhao stuffed the money bag into the cuffs, shook his head with a wry smile and whispered: "County Lord, the emperor is reprimanding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Second Prince inside, it's better not to go in." ”

"Why?"

"The two of them didn't get their errands done."

Of course, this is just an excuse. In fact, it wasn't all these two people who saw the emperor's old age, and one by one they attracted the courtiers to poke the emperor's lung tubes.

It was naturally impossible for Gonggong Zhao to tell Yu Menghuan this.

However, Yu Menghuan also guessed that the affairs in the court were complicated, but in fact, it was just like that, just figure it out.

"Father-in-law Lao Zhao went in and said, I'll wait outside......"

Before the words fell, I heard the hurried footsteps inside, and the crown prince and the second prince both walked out with a depressed face.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Second Prince." Yu Menghuan's eyes swept over the two of them, and he knew it in his heart.

"Cousin doesn't have to be so polite."

The prince didn't dare to really let Yu Menghuan finish the ceremony, and stretched out his hand to help the person up. After all, the emperor in it doted on Yu Menghuan, and he was just a prince, and he really didn't dare to pose at the entrance of the palace.

After a few words of greeting, Yu Menghuan followed Zhao Gonggong inside.

She once held the power of the court and subconsciously began to analyze the situation of the princes, but after taking two more steps, she suddenly realized that she didn't need to fight for anything about her business.

So after entering the door, Yu Menghuan adjusted the expression on her face and shouted happily: "Uncle Emperor, I'm here." ”

Listening to the voice, the emperor's face was relieved, and his tone instantly became kind, "It's Yihua, why did you suddenly enter the palace?" But someone is bullying you? ”

"With the emperor's uncle supporting me, who dares to bully me?" Yu Menghuan blinked lightly, "I'm here to send a baby to the emperor's uncle." ”

"Oh?"

"Don't believe it, my precious uncle has never seen it."

"Really?"

"Uncle Emperor, don't you believe me?" Yu Meng's voice was high, and her expression was very arrogant.

The emperor couldn't help laughing when he saw her deliberately amusing her, and said very indulgently: "If it is really a treasure that I have never seen, then I will be rewarded." ”

"Then the emperor's uncle is waiting to reward me."

Yu Menghuan beckoned, and Father-in-law Zhao stepped forward with the wooden box, "Look, is this something you haven't seen?" ”

I saw that the tea set in the box was crystal clear, but the pines and cypresses on it seemed to be dyed with a verdant color, which was indeed a rare good treasure.

"But there is no shortage of such good things in my palace." The emperor's eyes were slightly bright, but he said with a little reserve.
