Chapter Seventy-Three: The Chivalrous Monster (1)

Three days later, in order to pray for the seriously ill queen, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty went to the hunting grounds in the northeast and east of Liangjing to hunt and release animals.

And Shangguan Jieyu, who was already favored by the emperor, was promoted to the position at this time, promoted to a noble concubine five levels in a row, and was allowed to return to her hometown and province.

Since then, the rumor that Shangguan Jieyu has fallen out of favor has completely become a joke, and for a while, the court and the people have become even more curious about this fastest-promoted concubine in history.

However, because the hometown of the noble concubine is in the northwest, and the hunting ground is in the northeast, the two teams of people and horses separated after leaving Liangjing. The mighty cars drove east and west, each heading towards their destination.

The emperor's car that went to the paddock was better, and it did not cause any commotion, while the car of the noble concubine Niangniang who returned to her hometown and province, every time she passed through a town, would cause tens of thousands of onlookers, and it was almost difficult for people to walk.

As a result, the original one-day journey was delayed into two days, and the two-day journey was delayed into five days, and the driving was extremely slow. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that I won't be able to reach the hometown of the concubine Niangniang in a month.

However, even so, the concubine and her entourage did not seem to have any intention of channeling, and it seemed that they planned to delay on the road for a while, so as to leave enough time for the Shangguan family who suddenly received the will.

But at this time, Lanzhou County, a few hundred miles away from Liangjing, ushered in He Yu, the son of the head of the He family. He was taking his new wife home for the New Year.

With them, there are two maids and two servants, who live in a courtyard belonging to the He family in Lanzhou County. said that he would wait until he had checked the accounts of several Hejia shops in Lanzhou County before setting off.

And although he knew that he was the He family's shop, but the shopkeeper Lu who was summoned by the main family for the first time, did not have the slightest mood to please the master at this time.

At this time, he just wanted to resign and leave after paying the bill quickly.

The only thing he is glad about now is that the son of the main family came in time, and he can resign in person, without having to wait for a reply after writing to resign, which saves him a lot of time.

So, after Gongzi He checked the accounts, he immediately received the resignation letter of the shopkeeper Lu.

He raised his eyebrows and said with a look of regret: "Shopkeeper Lu, your rice shop is doing well, and your reputation in the neighborhood is good, I heard that you just brought your family here and plan to live in Lanzhou County permanently, why do you suddenly want to resign?" ”

Shopkeeper Lu showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and arched his hand to Gongzi He and said, "Childe, if it weren't for the last resort, I wouldn't have resigned at this time, it's really ...... It's really ...... It's hard to say! ”

Seeing the embarrassed look on the shopkeeper Lu's face, He Gongzi's eyes narrowed and said: "Then you can think about it, if you leave now, not only will the house be recovered, but the dividends at the end of the year will also be gone, and your loss will not be small!" ”

Shopkeeper Lu didn't know that he would lose a lot of money, and even destroy his entire family because of it, but for the safety of his family, he had to do so and had to leave here.

So he said with a resolute face: "I know everything, but I can't help it, childe...... Childe is right! ”

"Is it because someone threatens you or is not good for you, so you are leaving?" He Gongzi looked puzzled, and once again expressed his puzzlement at the resignation of the shopkeeper Lu.

Shopkeeper Lu shook his head, and his face showed a sense of vicissitudes: "Don't ask, son, now that the old man has fallen to this point, he is to blame, and he is to blame!" ”
