Chapter 96: His Highness Must Marry the County Lord
After several days of rain, the sun finally came out, and Shen Qu's body was already in good shape, and he finally stepped out of the house after recuperating for many days.
It's just an unpleasant experience, and she doesn't plan to get married in this life, so it doesn't hurt to lose something.
Looking up at the brilliant sun, I only feel that there are still many things to do in life, and the field I am good at has not really been brought into play.
This life is not easy, and wasting time on the unpleasantness of the past would be in vain.
Lifting his spirits, Shen Qu got into the car and went straight to the shop.
I haven't asked about the business in the shop for a long time, I don't know how Amu has learned, can I understand the account book, have the channels of purchase been mastered, can the quality screening reassure her, and the business in the shop, the autumn days in Jin'an are very short, and it looks like winter is coming, the cloth workshop and the garment bureau are going to change thick cloth winter clothes, and the end of the year means the festival, and the jewelry workshop and rouge shop have not entered the most fashionable tricks......
Oh, when I think of these things, I feel that the whole person is excited, and I immediately come to my senses, and I don't think about it anymore.
Horse-drawn carriages are walking on the streets, the warm autumn sun is shining on the body, and the people on the street are also increasing, which is a good time for the guests to be full.
There are many shops to patrol today, and the first stop is the jewelry shop.
The car stopped at the door of the shop, Shen Qu got out of the car, and told the coachman to leave first, he was afraid that he would have to stay longer.
Stepping into the door, there was a lively scene of crowds, and I was overjoyed, and Shen Cheng looked at it slowly in a low-key corner.
When a young man found out that she was coming, he hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and shouted "Dongjia", as if he had seen a relative, and Shen did also smile and said a few words and asked them to hurry up and get busy first.
Today's business is particularly good, most of the ladies and nobles of the wealthy families to choose jewelry, and some are with the painting to request customization, in the end it is about to be the New Year, family reunions, visiting relatives and friends, marriage and gifts, all need to decorate the faΓ§ade.
The two closest people to Shen Qu, the older woman was full of gold and silver, graceful and luxurious, wearing a brocade dress and a long skirt made of gold silk brocade, and at a glance it was a rich and noble family.
And the little lady standing beside her was draped in a goose down thin coat, and the soft and well-defined material was worth a lot at a glance.
"Mother, I like this for Zhu Hai." The little lady has a delicate voice and a sweet smile on her little face.
The woman took it and looked at it for a while, and said: "It's very chic, if you like it, you can buy it back, just the same, just wear it on weekdays, if it's the day of marriage, you still have to wear a gold hairpin to show your bearing." β
The little lady nodded and said yes, then handed the pearl hairpin to the shopkeeper, and then asked, "Is there a chic golden hairpin?" β
Before the shopkeeper could answer, he listened to the woman on the side: "I think that the gold hairpin is also a little thin, and the shopkeeper, it is better to directly customize a set of gold head noodles, okay?" β
The shopkeeper naturally said yes, so the two sides began to discuss the style of the head and the material of the embellishment.
Shen did listen to it, this lady is very demanding, for fear that her daughter will be wronged, she wants the best and most expensive, such a set of noodles will be hundreds of taels bigger, not only that, but the style she wants will not be fashionable after the New Year, not to mention waste, but also affect the reputation of the shop.
So Shen Cheng stepped forward to salute and said, "This lady, the shop will soon have a new batch of the most fashionable styles, if you are not in a hurry, you can wait for two days, or you can also take a look at the sample book first." β
When the mother and daughter heard this, they immediately said, "We have the silver, so we want the most luxurious and fashionable." β
The shopkeeper asked, "Boss, we haven't decided to enter yet." β
Shen Qu said that it would be decided immediately, and then said to the mother and daughter with a smile: "Although the price is more expensive, it is also a really good thing, if you can wear it, it will be glamorous." β
Who knew that there was no expected excitement and surprise, but the mother and daughter glanced at each other, or the lady asked her first:
"You're the owner of this shop? Last name Shen? β
Shen Qu said yes, "It's me, my father Shen Fu, and my little daughter Shen Qu." β
"It's you." The lady's expression immediately fell, and her voice was full of displeasure, "How can someone who looks like him do such a shameless thing." β
Her voice was a little loud, which provoked everyone around her to come around, and began to discuss:
"Is it His Royal Highness the Crown Prince she seduced, it's really shameless."
"It's not as good as a woman in the hook bar, but she used that kind of indiscriminate means, it can be seen that the character is not good, and this thing is not much better."
"Yes, if people knew that they were wearing something from her family, would they be considered that they were also that kind of person?"
"Forget it, no matter how good it is, you can't buy it, reputation is important, let's go."
β¦β¦
Ugly words came like a tidal wave, and everyone threw down their jewelry and left.
The shop quickly fell silent, as if the excitement was just a dream.
The shopkeeper and the guy were stunned, looking at Shen Qu in embarrassment, embarrassment, and bewilderment, as if it was all their fault.
Shen Qu sneered and said, "I'm sorry, I'm the one who has caused everyone." β
"Don't say that, the owner, we all know what the owner is like." The shopkeeper hurriedly persuaded her, "It's they who don't distinguish between right and wrong, and pour dirty water on the owner." β
"Yes, the owner, don't talk about yourself like that, I don't blame the owner."
The guys also came forward to speak for her.
Shen really didn't care about it, but now, he really didn't expect that it would affect the business of the shop.
So he stood up and said, "I'll go first, if there's anything to do go to the house to find me." β
A lonely person walked out the door.
Not far behind her, a majestic and tall figure looked at her, feeling distressed.
Li Luansong followed her for a while, for fear that she would be looked at again, and did not stop until he saw her boarding the car and leaving.
The next day, there was another quarrel in the court.
The courtiers not only did not back down, but also intensified their efforts to ask the prince to take back his fate, seeing that the new policy was about to face an untimely death, Li Luansong felt very powerless and very defeated.
Shen did ignore him, he didn't even have the qualifications to protect her, and watched her being bullied, mocked, and embarrassed because of herself.
Mutam is still haunted, and from time to time he runs to find trouble, like a madman.
Now even the new policy is not being implemented smoothly, and Shen Fu will be scolded for it.
β¦β¦
Retreating hastily, Li Luansong just wants to be quiet and quiet.
But this time, those old ministers went even further, relying on the large number of people to chase from the court to the imperial study, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could take back his fate.
Is the new deal like this, Li Luansong felt unwilling, he felt that he was not wrong, he was still strong and strong, the ministers were tired of arguing and found that it had no effect, so they got entangled and simply went to the summer resort to find the emperor to complain.
forced the poor Emperor Xiaochun to repeat his old tricks, fainted on the spot, and the imperial doctor hurried over, which drove those old ministers away.
*
First he was drugged in wine, and then there were rumors, who was the person behind this, and what was his purpose.
Li Luansong found the boatman again after disguise, but the boatman was killed, but he had no choice but to secretly put the person in prison, and after coercion and temptation, the boatman finally said:
"The villain is a boatman, and a Lang Jun came that day, and the clothes he wore were not like the coarse cotton clothes of ordinary people, but they didn't look like the silk silk of the noble family, in between."
Li Luansong thought for a while and asked, "What kind of dress, appearance." "Gray short, good clothes, gray hat on his head, a silver ingot, where did we get so much money, I agreed to it for a while."
In this way, it is just a small servant of a high-ranking family, who is instructed by the master to do things.
When asked again which family it was, the boatman said he didn't know, "We just need to collect money to do things, and it's not appropriate to ask too much." β
There are more such people in the capital, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the clues are interrupted.
Li Luansong was depressed.
I couldn't sleep for a few days and nights and stood by the bed to look at the moon, and every time I could think of that night when the two of them looked at the moon together before leaving, she said that she would always be by his side, and they were so good at that time......
did not go to the court for five consecutive days, Li Luansong did not want to face the noisy ministers, and he couldn't figure out who was the black hand, and the whole person was in a bad mood, and he called himself sick and hid.
On this day, the little eunuch came to report and said, "The Marquis of Pingchang asks to see him." β
Yang Xiao? What did he come to do.
After all, it's hard to refuse if it's a relative, so Li Luansong cleaned up and invited people in.
Yang Xiao came to visit the patient, and he saluted first when he entered the door.
After all, he is an elder, and Li Luansong is also very polite, saying that he is fine, probably because he is worried about the new policy and has nothing to do.
Yang Xiao said: "His Royal Highness the Prince's proposition is right, it is those old guys who can't eat the ancients. β
It is rare to have a consensus of opinion, Li Luansong said: "Thank you uncle for your support, but at the moment they just don't agree, the new deal is stuck and can't advance or retreat, and the palace is very worried." β
Yang Xiao stood up and asked: "If His Highness believes in Weichen, the old minister is willing to come forward to persuade those people, and they will definitely agree with His Highness's new policy." β
Li Luansong was stunned, Yang Xiao had been away from the government for a long time, and he had only been his idle prince with peace of mind all these years, how could he have the leisure to help him now, and he still swore so confidently patted his chest and said, "I will be able to make them agree."
Although Yang Xiao in front of him was about the same age as Shen Fu, he looked several years younger because of his pampering, Li Luansong looked at him, and an ominous premonition surfaced in his heart:
"What kind of method can Uncle do to make those old stubborn compromises?"
He wanted to find out a thing or two, after all, this was a question that he and Shen Fu and other officials who agreed with the new policy had not come up with for a long time.
Yang Xiao said with a smile: "The minister naturally has a way, but I can't reveal it to His Highness for the time being, and I hope Your Highness will forgive me." β
Li Luansong didn't blame, looked at him without saying a word, waiting for his next words.
Sure enough, Yang Xiao said: "But there is one thing that the minister can tell His Highness, the minister knows that His Highness has been worried about more than this one thing recently, and that Shen Fu's daughter was harmed by rumors, and His Highness must be very distressed."
The minister wanted to solve all the difficulties of His Highness at once, not only persuaded those old stubborns to agree to the new policy, but also let Shen Qu's rumors be borne on the little daughter Zhi'er, and this condition was-
His Royal Highness must marry the county lord as the crown princess. β
