The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 59
Jin Feng was stunned by the beating. She lay on the ground covering her face and looked at Qin Wan, screaming, "You hit me?!"

Qin Wan crossed her hips and stared at Jin Feng on the ground, then turned to Jin Yu and said, "Your sister is almost riding on your head, if you don't want to beat her up, when are you going to beat her up?"

At this moment, the little maids beside Jinfeng rushed to help Jinfeng who was on the ground. That Jinfeng had never been beaten before, so he was anxious for a moment, and he was about to pinch Qin Wan's neck when he came up.

Qin Wan had learned some fists and kicks, and passed her left hand upwards under Jinfeng's right arm, and suddenly grabbed her left wrist, and turned her body to the left, twisting Jinfeng's left arm like twisting twists, and her right hand firmly Suppressing her shoulders, and then, pushing forward fiercely, Jin Feng was directly pushed to the ground, landed on her face, and directly broke half of her front front teeth.

"Miss!" the maids exclaimed and rushed over to help.

Qin Wan shouted loudly: "Whoever dares to help her, I will beat up with him!"

Jin Feng frightened and touched his half-opened upper tooth, and looked down to see that his hands were covered with blood.It turned out that when she fell, her broken tooth broke her lip and cut the opening. Blood flowed out along the opening and fell down her chin.And her entire upper lip to right cheek was swollen up.

Looking at it, Qin Wan couldn't help but think, this girl is completely disfigured.

"Wow!" Jinfeng was in pain and anger, looking at the blood beads on the ground on her hands and body, she burst into tears on the ground.

The maids looked at each other in blank dismay as they wanted to help but did not dare to help.

"Why are you crying? Shut up! It's so noisy!" Qin Wan was full of disgust, and while cursing, she strode up to Jinfeng, knelt down, grabbed her collar and pulled her to her eyes, saying viciously, " Don't think that everyone will give you three points of affection like your sister, next time I hear you dare to talk to others in such a arrogant and arrogant way, listen well, I'm talking about anyone, I'll see you I will beat you once! This time I will knock out your front teeth, and next time I will leave you with no teeth left!"

After finishing speaking, she loosened Jin Feng's collar suddenly, and threw her heavily to the ground again.

"You...you..." Jin Feng, who was sharp-tongued just now, was stunned by Qin Wan. She didn't dare to cry, but she was trembling with anger, and boldly shouted again, "You wait! I Go find my father and let my father teach you a lesson!"

Qin Wan stared at Jin Feng and said, "You go back immediately and tell your father that I beat you, and see if your father dares to come?"

"You wait! You all wait for me!" After that, Jin Feng covered her face while crying and ran out of the main house with her maidservants, towards the second room.

Qin Wan stood up straight, looked at Jin Feng's fleeing back, chuckled twice, turned to Jin Yu and said, "Facing such a disobedient sister, what reason do you still have to tell her? Go ahead and hit her if you don't agree." Until she is convinced, and if she refuses to accept it, she will be beaten until she dies. If her parents dare to come to find trouble, they will fight together. Mrs. Jin, don't forget that you are the elder sister and the head of the Jin family. Hitting anyone is not justified!"

Jin Yu looked at Qin Wan's operation, although it was a bit inappropriate, but he did vent his anger on her.She calmed down a little, and bowed to Qin Wan, "Thank you, Ma'am."

"Thank you for what I did," Qin Wan smiled, "Your sister really deserves a beating just by looking at her. When I came here, I wanted to beat her up at the gate, but I endured it when there were too many people."

Jin Yu frowned: "What we said just now... did your mother hear it?"

Qin Wan nodded: "I heard."

Jin Yu: "..."

Qin Wan went to a chair and sat down, and said solemnly: "Looking at your expression, what Jinfeng said just now is true. Your Jin family looks like a big family on the surface, but in fact it is about to go bankrupt?"

Jin Yu hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly nodded.

Qin Wan continued to ask: "Aren't you afraid that Ning Yi will know that you lied to him and wiped out your Jin family?"

Jin Yu paused and said, "I'm afraid."

"Then why do you still take such risks?" Qin Wan wondered.

Jin Yu explained: "I'm thinking that maybe by cooperating with His Highness King Ning, the Jin family's business can improve. Since my father passed away, I have taken over the entire Jin family. The people in the second room see me as a woman and never recognize me. The status of the head of the family, coupled with the long-standing internal abuses in the family, many things my father is powerless to change, let alone me."

Qin Wan asked: "Actually, do you want to cooperate with the Beirong army to give the Jin family a chance?"

Jin Yu: "Yes."

Qin Wan said: "But what Ning Yi wants is your family's money. Now that you have no money, it is impossible for Ning Yi to reach a cooperation with you."

Jin Yu: "I know."

Qin Wan said, "Then what is your plan?"

Jin Yu shook his head, his eyes gradually turned red: "I don't know, I can only take one step at a time. The Jin family and Jiangnan have always maintained tea and mulberry silk trade, but now King Ning has transferred the right to privately purchase tea and mulberry silk to the royal family. The Jin family’s way to buy goods is broken, and the way to make money is also broken...I hope that I can persuade King Ning to grant the power of purchasing tea, mulberry and silk to the Jin family, so that the Jin family’s trade can breathe and return to profitability..."

"He will not easily agree to what you think," Qin Wan said firmly, "What he wants is to curb the export of Nanliang's superior agricultural products, sanction the economy of their small court in Nanliang, so that Nanliang has no money to compete with Beirong. If you open up a trade opening, you merchants only value profits, and you will inevitably purchase a large amount of goods according to market demand, causing gold and silver to flow into Nanliang, which Ning Yi does not want to see at all."

Jin Yu was a little surprised that Qin Wanhui said this, she nodded and said: "Your Majesty is right, I have already felt His Highness Ning Wang's insistence on this matter."

Qin Wan took a deep breath.Jin Yu looks very beautiful on the outside, but I am afraid that only she knows the pressure on her body. After all, no one wants to lose the foundation left by their ancestors in their own hands.

"Haven't you thought about opening another business route?" Qin Wan asked curiously.

"Open another business route?" Jin Yu was stunned.

"The tea and mulberry business is indeed prosperous, but now that the general environment has changed, and the political risk is so high, why should you put all your eggs in one basket. Why not think about other business directions and stop sticking to the original industry, such as selling the spices here Go to the countries of the Western Regions? People there like to eat meat. If you add spices from the Central Plains, they will like it very much. And the products from the Western Regions can also be sold to the Central Plains. Isn’t it good for you middlemen to earn the difference? And now Ning also As your backer, the local snakes in the Western Regions will not be too shameless. Of course, this is all my nonsense, I just want you to open up your ideas, and I don't guarantee whether it can be implemented."

"..." Jin Yu thought for a moment and said, "Actually, my father was already thinking about opening up trade in the Western Regions when he was alive. Everyone in the Naihe clan thought that the original tea and mulberry trade was enough, and there was no need to go to dangerous places in the Western Regions, so That idea is over."

Qin Wan said: "Those people in your clan are just lazy and lazy. The Western Regions are tough. No one wants to suffer from this burden. They just shirk it, don't they?"

Jin Yu said: "It's not just hard work, bandits are rampant in the Western Regions, the environment is harsh, and the young people in the clan are pampered and raised, they can't even fight, let alone fight against bandits..."

Qin Wan thought for a while and said, "Let Ning Yi's people help you open up the Western Regions, so that your safety will be guaranteed."

"..." Jin Yu lowered his eyes and fell silent.

Qin Wan tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jin Yu said: "You want us to cooperate with King Ning to open up trade routes in the Western Regions and share profits. Is that what you mean?"

Qin Wan nodded: "Madam Jin can understand at a glance, so I don't need to say anything."

Jin Yu hesitated again: "But everyone in the clan, especially the second bedroom and second uncle, they will definitely not agree, I have to think about how to persuade them..."

Qin Wan originally wanted to say that if the Jin family was unwilling, let Ning Yi hit them until they were willing.It's not right to think about it, everything is resolved with violence, and if everyone is not convinced and voluntary, it will inevitably bury hidden dangers.Let Jin Yu figure out how to persuade the Jin family.

What matters now is not the issue of commercial routes in the Western Regions, but Jin Yu concealing from Ning Yi the true financial situation of the Jin family.If you keep hiding it, things will explode when the Dongchuang incident is revealed.

Qin Wan said: "The most urgent thing now is for you to go to Ning Yi and explain the current situation of the Jin family honestly and clearly."

Jin Yu frowned: "I'm worried..."

Qin Wan sighed: "If you still want to keep it a secret, it's definitely better to take the initiative to explain it than he found out later. And now he has not cooperated with you in a real sense, so being open and honest is your correct choice."

Jin Yu suddenly knelt down in front of Qin Wan: "Can I ask your majesty to accompany me to see His Royal Highness King Ning? With your majesty helping me to say a few good words, I can calm King Ning's anger."

When Qin Wan heard this, she shook her hands and refused all over her body. She pushed four, five and six: "No, no, no, this is a matter between you and Ning Yi, please don't drag me. I'm just giving you a suggestion, let's hurry up Having said that, I just want you not to come up with the worst result in the end, when the time comes, I would rather care if you ask for money or not, and finally kill your whole family on the grounds of delaying the military plane for the crime of bullying the king."

"But empress, you hold a lot of weight in the heart of His Highness King Ning, and everyone can see clearly..."

"Don't, don't, I don't have a good heart, you should go by yourself," Qin Wan stood up, lifted her skirt, and ran away from the main house, "You are the head of the Jin family, show some grandeur Come on! If Ning Yi really wants to kill you, I will finally plead for you."

After all, she ran out of the main house of the Jin family as if she was afraid of stepping into this muddy water.

When she ran out of the main courtyard of the Jin family, she suddenly remembered: "Oh, I didn't go to Jin Yu to talk nonsense, I went to her to ask about the golden pot... Forget it, let's talk about it another day, otherwise She dragged me to find Ning Yi, that's no trouble..."
