The princess is delicate, and the cold and cruel prince regent is teased

Chapter 296 A child living on the street is as old as Xiao Yi
Among the royal family's nephews, Jun Qinglan was the one he valued and liked the most.

Because he is loyal and brave, and has a benevolent heart that cares about the world, and he will do everything in his hand sincerely.

In politics, he never slacked off, and never let him down.

"Then can he escape from me? I can heal his injuries, and I won't pester his children every day, but he must at least give me a reason to divorce me!" Unable to bear it, he began to torture her again and again, making her uncomfortable.

"Have you gone to the street outside to see it?" King Zhongshan suddenly interjected.

Jiang Qingyan was a little dazed, so the King of Zhongshan led her and walked a few streets to Zhuque Street and Qingyu Street, where ordinary people are most lively.

This place was originally supposed to be a bustling place, with a dazzling array of shops, row upon row, hawkers and customers coming and going, everyone should come and go happily.

But now, the number of people on these two streets has been reduced by half. Looking around, most of the shops are closed, and there are children in shabby clothes shivering together in the inconspicuous corners of the streets. , with a dusty face, gnawed on the corn bread.

When King Zhongshan saw it, his heart ached.

And Jiang Qingyan was also very sad, "I... haven't been here for a long time."

She didn't expect that this bustling street would become like this.

"Shuque Street and Qingyu Street are like this, do you dare to think what other places, outside the suburbs of Beijing, look like?" King Zhongshan left the city yesterday, he recalled,
"There is a village on the outskirts of Beijing. The people who live there are porters and sellers. They rely on transportation to earn some rations. Life is very difficult.
But when Xiao Huaiyan closed all the shops of Xiao’s family, they lost all their income, their family was empty, and wild vegetables and prey in the mountains were not enough to feed their hunger. There was such a family that was the poorest. A little boy remained. "

Jiang Qingyan's heart tightened suddenly, her face turned pale, "There is... a little boy left."

King Zhongshan nodded, "Yes, that child is about the same age as Jiang Yi. His family members died and he was left to live alone. This king couldn't bear it, so he took him into the city and sent him to an orphanage, so he was free. eat."

The king of Zhongshan looked at the desolate street, and he was filled with emotion, "There are so many wars and people are suffering. Do you think the relationship between children and daughters is so important in front of these scenes?"

Jiang Qingyan's heart was sad, she never felt that she was a woman who cared about the world, and what she saw and heard did not expand her pattern so much.

But she empathizes with Jun Qinglan, he understands the suffering of the common people, and she will too, he is willing to dedicate himself to the world, and so does she.

Jiang Qingyan glanced at the corner of the street, half-gnawed the bun, and the child with confused eyes turned her head to tell Qi Lian, "Go and deliver some clothes and food to that child."

Qi Lian bent his knees, "Yes, Miss."

Holding Xiao Huaiyan's fan pendant, Jiang Qingyan went to Xiao's largest bank with King Zhongshan, and found the steward named Yin Shihang.

Yin Shihang brought everyone in Xiao's Bank and waited respectfully for Jiang Qingyan's arrival.

In the private room of Xiao's Bank, Yin Shihang eagerly served tea to Jiang Qingyan, "Miss Jiang is tired, drink some tea and have some delicate and delicious snacks."

What he personally brought to Jiang Qingyan was Jiang Qingyan's favorite green plum cake and rose hawthorn cake.

Jiang Qingyan glanced at him, and he immediately smiled and said, "Young master ordered, no matter if Miss Jiang comes or not, all the shops in the Xiao family's bank must prepare the food you like, Miss."

Jiang Qingyan's heart sank slightly, "He... has a heart."

King Zhongshan watched from the side, subconsciously touched his nose.

He felt a pity for Jun Qinglan in his heart, even if Jiang Qingyan left the palace and was divorced by him, people who missed her afterward and rushed to hold her in the top of their hearts were still lined up.

On the other hand, Duke Qi, with a solemn expression, "Jiang Qingyan, how long are you going to hang around here? Can't you see the suffering of the common people?"

Jiang Qingyan recalled that no matter in her past or present life, she had never had any contact with Duke Qi's mansion and Duke Qi. Even if Duke Qi was talented, he would not trouble them.

but now……

Jiang Qingyan felt that she was not respected by Qi Guogong, so she and Qi Guogong were not so polite anymore, she said, "I can open all the shops of the Xiao family, but Qi Guogong, you must promise me one condition."

"You still want to talk about conditions?" Qi Guogong looked at her with displeasure, "Do you know that because of your own body, the government is in chaos and the people are suffering, you have already brought disaster to the country and the people! What qualifications do you have here? Talk about conditions?"

Jiang Qingyan's body hadn't healed yet, and she coughed after being scolded by Duke Qi.

Seeing this, Yin Shihang stepped forward and reminded, "My lord, our Xiao's Bank did not invite you here."

"Is this official someone you can invite here?" Qi Guogong glared angrily, "If Xiao Huaiyan hadn't acted like this, I wouldn't be worthy of letting this official set foot here in this lifetime!"

"Oh?" Yin Shihang raised his eyebrows, "How does that villain remember that several young masters in Qi Guogong's mansion have silver deposits in our Xiao's bank? It seems to be the fifth young master of Qi Guogong's mansion two days ago, because the bank is not open. If he didn’t exchange money for him, he would directly spoil at the gate of the bank, and even quarreled with the Jingzhao Mansion, yelling that our Xiao’s bank would be burned down. Is this... the tutor of the nobles?”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qi Guogong choked, and his old face turned red.

That traitor in his family, he must beat him to death when he goes back!
Bastards are useless!

"Okay, what are you talking about?" King Zhongshan is Qi Guogong's teacher. He valued him very much at first, but now he also feels that he is very annoying.

He directly asked Jiang Qingyan, "Girl, what conditions do you have? Let's talk about it. This king and Qi Guogong may not be able to make decisions, and they may have to ask the emperor for instructions."

Jiang Qingyan looked at King Zhongshan, holding the fan pendant tightly in his hand, "I want Xiao Huaiyan to come out of the dungeon safely, and don't put him in prison again, and hold him accountable."

King Zhongshan pinched his cuffs and thought for a moment, "This king and the Duke of Qi cannot completely decide on this matter."

In the end, I still have to ask Jun Qinglan for instructions.

They sent people back to the palace, and went to the prison to deliver the news. Half an hour later, Xiao Huaiyan was sent to Xiao's bank.

Seeing Xiao Huaiyan's safe return, Yin Shihang breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly had Xiao Huaiyan carried back to heal his injuries.

When he came back again, he respected and admired Jiang Qingyan even more.

Jiang Qingyan handed the fan pendant to him, and ordered in a low voice, "Resume the business of all shops under the name of the Xiao family, the bank, freight, and docks, as before, without any mistakes."
