All the Meng family's money was taken away by Duan Jianzhuo. She counted on Duan Jianzhuo to give her money every month, and then distributed the monthly salary in the mansion, but there was no way she could get five thousand taels.

But Mrs. Meng looked at Doctor Meng's eyes and swallowed the words she spoke. She nodded and said, "I will give it to the head of the family tomorrow."

"Okay, Yanjing has been troubled recently. You should go less to Zhao Mansion and rest more at home." The head of the Luo family said a few more words.

Mrs. Luo responded absently, and then looked at Mrs. Zhu next to her. The things that were suppressed in her heart were like a thousand-jin boulder, making her uneasy and frightened.

She spoke harshly and said with a stiff expression: "Master, I listen to you. I know that you have been running around for the emperor recently. I am responsible for everything in the house. Don't worry about it. If the master has other matters, I will go to him first." Go ahead."

"You don't look very good, how about I take your pulse?"

"No." Mrs. Luo knew that her husband had excellent medical skills, but she rarely asked the Luo family master to check her pulse. The Luo family master also respected his wife: "I will ask a female doctor to take a look later. Family master, you go Go about your business."

She was afraid that if the head of the Luo family didn't leave, the matter would no longer be hidden.

Seeing that she was fine, the head of the Luo family did not insist. He stood up and asked Mrs. Zhu to accompany Mrs. Luo, and then left the yard.

As soon as the head of the Luo family left, Mrs. Luo vomited all over the floor.

The maids around her were crying anxiously. They patted Mrs. Luo's back with their hands and called for the Master of the Luo family to come back.

Mrs. Luo immediately grabbed the maid next to her and said, "You are not allowed to call the master of the house, Mrs. Zhu!"

"Sister, sister-in-law is here, what are you going to do next?" Mrs. Zhu walked to Mrs. Luo and asked.

Mrs. Luo said: "You still have the nerve to ask me what to do? Search, dig three feet under the ground to find Duan Jianzhuo, go find him quickly, by the way, the bank... continue to open, don't disturb other aristocratic families first. "

East Palace.

"Aren't you going to alarm other aristocratic families?" Xie Jinyun raised his eyes and looked at his third brother Xie Li, with a hint of ridicule in his eyebrows: "The bank pays interest once at the end of the month, and many dignitaries from Yanjing's aristocratic families go to the Duan family bank because of its reputation. To borrow money, even ordinary people put most of their wealth into Duan Jianzhuo's bank. The amount is huge. Doesn't Mrs. Meng want to bear it all by herself? "

Not to mention taking over the bank, Mrs. Meng might not even be able to afford the expenses of the Meng Mansion now. Xie Li frowned deeply and said: "She should think that she can find Duan Jianzhuo quickly. Does the third brother need anything? The third brother has met many caravans. As long as I send a message, all the caravans will help find Duan Jianzhuo." ”

"Look, we must find Duan Jianzhuo. He still holds the people's hard-earned money in his hands."

As soon as Xie Jinyun finished speaking, Bai Lu walked in from the outside and said with an ugly face: "Crown Princess, Mrs. Lan brought Miss Lan and Second Miss Lan to ask to see the Crown Princess."

"Mrs. Lan?" She frowned slightly and looked at Xie Li.

Xie Li immediately turned back to Bai Lu and said, "What are you asking for? There is a national funeral in the palace, and the Crown Princess is copying scriptures for the Emperor."

Bai Lu frowned and said: "Then Mrs. Lan said that if she can't see the Crown Princess today, she will come tomorrow. If she can't see her tomorrow, she will come the day after tomorrow. She has very important things to discuss with the Crown Princess."

"Then let her..."

"Third brother." Xie Jinyun interrupted Xie Li: "Let them come in."

"Sister, Mr. Lan has been leading the ministers to stir up trouble in the court recently, and has repeatedly contradicted His Highness the Crown Prince. Now that Mrs. Lan has come to the East Palace to ask to see you, she must not have good intentions. You are pregnant now, and I am afraid that she may have evil plans for you. It is best to be careful. ”

Xie Li looked at her slightly bulging belly and was worried about Xie Jinyun's situation.

He thought that by being in a high position, Xie Jinyun would be able to find happiness, but he didn't know that Leng Jian was hard to defend against in a high position. He wished he could build a high wall to protect Xie Jinyun.

Xie Jinyun's red lips curled up slightly and he said, "I know why Mrs. Lan is here."

It’s for the position of Crown Princess, no, I should say... it’s for the position of Queen!
