Marrying into a poor family

Mrs. Sun had heard about what happened in Qijiang County, but she didn't know the specific details.

After hearing Qin Xiang mention Qijiang County, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but think of what she had heard before when she returned to her parents' home.

"I heard that Eunuch Zhao from the Queen Mother's Palace died in Qijiang County in Dancheng. Now Qijiang County is going to stab Louzi!" The second sister's tone could not be said to be regretful, but rather gloating.

The eldest sister glanced at the servants in the room and asked people to go out first before scolding the second sister: "Don't mind your own business. Don't say anything you want without blocking it. Be careful of bringing trouble to your mother's family and your husband's family."

The second sister has always been heartless. She married well and developed a straight temper. She can never hold back what she says.

The eldest sister was much calmer. She scolded her younger sister first, and then slowly talked about the matter with her younger sisters.

However, the version that the eldest sister knows is not complete. After all, if it comes out, it will have been deleted or deleted.

Mrs. Sun frowned and thought for a while, then she realized one thing. Qin Xiang was from Qijiang County.

In other words, Qin Xiang and the incense offered as tribute are somewhat related to the Qijiang County incident.

Mr. Sun has benefited from the Lu family, and Mrs. Sun also knows it. For so many years, the Sun family has been able to live so well in the capital city without the help of the Lu family in Dancheng.

Therefore, when Master Sun came to see Lu Jiu, he was very polite and enthusiastic. After hearing what he wanted to do, he agreed with a wave of his hand and then left it to Mrs. Sun to handle.

Lu Jiu naturally showed his sincerity. He first gave a generous gift and promised to pay a hard-earned fee in the future.

For the sake of a box of silver, Mrs. Sun took it without hesitation.

And she only thought that she could get a lot of money and benefits by connecting the middle. She also helped Master Sun return the favor, and Master Sun was much gentler to her. Why not do such a good thing?

In fact, Mrs. Sun also went back to her natal brother for help. The brother asked her to wait. He also said that there were too many people paying tribute, and he was afraid that she would have to wait.

When she thought things would not go well, Princess Yaoxiang took the initiative to send someone to find Mrs. Sun and said she wanted to help.

Mrs. Sun was a little strange, but later she thought it was natural, because the eldest brother's daughter and Princess Yaoxiang were in love with each other. They had very different statuses, but they got along unexpectedly. It was a great miracle in the capital.

"What do you mean, Mrs. Xiao?" Mrs. Sun finally began to look at the overly beautiful woman in front of her.

"I don't know if Mrs. Sun knows that I am from Qijiang County. Our tribute of spices and fragrances is the hard work of most of the merchants in Qijiang County."

After a moment of silence, Qin Xian continued: "If Eunuch Zhao hadn't waited for this batch of incense, he would have left Qijiang County long ago, and maybe nothing would happen next."

Mrs. Sun took a breath, and her fingertips couldn't help but tremble slightly: "Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu never said that this batch of goods came from Qijiang County. I thought it was just from the Lu family in Dancheng. How dare you Harm me?"

Qin Xi smiled lightly and deliberately put the matter in a light tone: "Don't panic, Mrs. Sun. This matter is not a disaster. As long as things develop in a good direction, everyone will be happy, right, Mrs. Sun?"

Mrs. Sun glared at Qin Xiang. Seeing that she was so young, but very calm, and not afraid or flinching at all. Slowly, Mrs. Sun gradually calmed down.

After she finished the cup of tea, she asked, "What do you want me to do?"

After saying that, he added: "But please don't go too far, otherwise, I won't be afraid of being a villain." Qin Xiang sneered in her heart, you have taken advantage of all the good things, and now you want to let it go. How can such a good thing happen?

But her face remained gentle: "I just ask Mrs. Sun to help find out what happened to the incense we paid tribute? Has it arrived in the palace? What's the story behind it?"

Qin Xiang knew that the Queen Mother's people died in Qijiang County and gained a bad reputation. Now that the Queen Mother had abandoned Eunuch Zhao, she was still being implicated in her own reputation.

When this news passes, the Empress Dowager will definitely show off her bad temper. When the time comes, the people in Qijiang County, including Qin Xian's family, will not be able to get any favors from her.

That's why I personally delivered the tribute incense this time.

Qin Xiang also persuaded several other incense shops that cooperated with her to collect the incense products and deliver them together.

Qin Xiang had a connection, so everyone entrusted it to Qin Xiang and Lu Jiu, but it was still unclear whether it would succeed or not.

People in Qijiang County today are in panic, and they are still worried about what will happen to the new county magistrate?

Mrs. Sun thought for a while and said: "Actually, you only need to ask Princess Yaoxiang. However, Princess Yaoxiang has a somewhat weird personality. It is not easy for her to meet people she doesn't like, even if they are nobles in the palace. When I meet her, the person she likes does not matter what age or status he is."

Qin Xiang thought of Princess Yaoxiang who dared to dress up as a daughter and swagger into the drunken red building to listen to her previous life playing the piano, and couldn't help but agree with Mrs. Sun. She was a strange woman.

"Mrs. Sun, can you help deliver the post to Princess Yaoxiang? I want to meet Princess Yaoxiang in person."

Mrs. Sun frowned, and looked at Qin Xiang like a fool who didn't know the heights of the sky. Finally, she said: "Go back and wait. I'll think of some ideas and see if I can pass on a message. If Princess Yaoxiang meets, You, you can be considered a firm foothold in this capital."

After talking about the business, Qin Xiang felt more relaxed and began to inquire about Princess Yaoxiang.

Mrs. Sun is willing to talk, but probably because she is too lonely, she talks a lot today about Princess Yaoxiang.

"She was engaged earlier, but then her fiancé passed away. Her husband's family is the Queen Mother's natal family. Relying on the power of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, she wanted to force Princess Yaoxiang to marry her and leave her as a widow for her fiancé."

But who knew that Princess Yaoxiang would go home without saying a word after hearing this in the Queen Mother's Palace.

Later, the Ninth Prince, who had been doing nothing for many years, entered the palace and found an excuse for the emperor to scold her. Anyway, Princess Yaoxiang stayed in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, but no one dared to come to propose marriage.

No, no one in their twenties can get married.

After Mrs. Sun finished speaking, she added: "The Ninth Prince has handed over the entire palace to Princess Yaoxiang. This is to show the people in the capital that Princess Yaoxiang is not a poor creature who has not been loved by others."

"But you said that a woman who is not married is pitiful and lonely after all. After all, she should have a child by her side!"

Qin Xiang didn't quite agree. After all, the marriage between Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Qin Si couldn't be said to be very happy.

After all, everyone's destiny is different.

Three days later, people from the Ninth Prince's Palace came to the Xiao family in person and handed over two invitations, one to Lu Jiu and the other to Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu.

Xiang invited them to stay for two days at Jiuwangfu Villa outside Beicheng in two days. Hunting and flower viewing were part of their repertoire.
