The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 642 Kneaded into Xiaolongbao (3)
In the past, I learned about it through letters. I wrote dozens of lines on a letter, but I didn't know much about it.

Yuniang reported the truth and talked to Wei Changqu in detail.

After hearing this, Wei Changjue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhenshanfang is a pastry shop used by the Queen. Although the business is good, no one dares to come to make trouble.

Furthermore, Zhenshanfang has just settled in Shangjing not long ago, and its foundation is not solid. Although the business is good, it has not attracted the attention of those wealthy businessmen and tycoons in Shangjing. So far, it has not been suppressed or excluded.

After staying in Zhenshanfang for nearly an hour, Wei Changjue, Shangguan Yu'er, and Gu Xizhao got up and left.

When Gu Xizhao heard that Prince Rui was awake, he brought Shangguan Yu'er to Prince Rui's mansion with Wei Changqu.

Tianxiang Pavilion.

The guards of the East Palace sent by Prince Ling Yu returned empty-handed.

In the private room, several people knelt beside Prince Ling Yu in unison, with their heads lowered, not daring to look at Ling Yu's gloomy face.

"Why did you return empty-handed, what about people?"

Ling Yu put the wine cup in his hand heavily on the table, frowned, and stared at the guards with gloomy expressions.

Hearing Ling Yu's question, the leading guard raised his head slightly, and said bravely: "His Royal Highness, that girl is not an ordinary citizen, my subordinate... I dare not act rashly."

"Not ordinary people?" Fan Zhen gently repeated the guard's words.

He turned the wine cup in his hand, playing with it happily, pursing his lips slightly, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he smiled as if there was nothing there.

After a long time, Fan Zhen shifted her gaze to Ling Yu, and said calmly: "Your Highness, don't get angry, you might as well listen to the specific situation first."

After Fan Zhen's words fell, the guard quickly reported the truth.

He looked at the crown prince Ling Yu, then at Fan Zhen, and said respectfully, "His Royal Highness, Eldest Young Master, according to the information heard by my subordinates and others, that girl is the behind-the-scenes owner of Zhenshanfang."

Zhenshanfang is an imperial pastry shop, if they rashly rob the owner of Zhenshanfang, if this matter gets to the ears of the emperor, it will definitely be detrimental to His Highness the Crown Prince.

"The owner of Zhenshanfang is actually a young girl, heh, it's interesting." Fan Zhen said happily.

While speaking, a strange sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The guard thought for a moment, then continued the topic just now, and continued: "The subordinates and others followed all the way, and finally, that girl and the third son of Gu Xiang's mansion entered Prince Rui's mansion."

"Your Highness, that girl is the owner of Zhenshanfang, and she is related to the third son of Gu Xiangfu, Mr. Jing Shizi. Therefore, the subordinates and others dare not act rashly. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

After the guard finished speaking, Ling Yu waved at him, "Go down."

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

Several guards breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and in response, they quickly got up and stepped aside.

Ling Yu suppressed the anger just now, changed his smile, turned his eyes to look at Fan Zhen, and said: "Big cousin, Prince Rui's mansion and Gu Xiang's mansion are in the same breath, which has already shaken the Fan family's power in the court." Status, now, Zhenshanfang is actually involved with these two families, although at present, this Zhenshanfang can't achieve much, but if it is allowed to develop and grow, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous to the Fan family."

After drinking half a cup of tea, he slowly put down the teacup, "I'm afraid we can't keep this Zhenshanfang, big cousin, what do you think?" Suddenly, his tone was a little bit cold.

Fan Zhen drank by herself, and after hearing Ling Yu's words, she remained silent for a long time.

As shrewd as he is, how could he not know that all along, the crown prince kept calling him his eldest cousin and being close to him, just because he valued his status as the future heir of the Fan family and his monstrous wealth, and took advantage of the power of the Fan family in the court and the opposition? The influence, as well as his Fan Zhen's financial resources, suppressed those former officials of Prince Rui's residence.

Seeing Fan Zhen drinking alone and ignoring his words for a long time, Ling Yu frowned slightly, feeling displeased.

"Cousin, don't forget that the Fan family is the mother family of the current empress. Only when I ascend the throne can the Fan family continue to prosper forever."

"Now, the father has issued an order to let the third brother return to the capital. The position of the crown prince in this palace is in jeopardy. If the palace loses power, the Fan family will definitely have a hard time."

Talking about this matter, Ling Yu couldn't help but his face darkened a bit, and dissatisfaction appeared between his brows.

As a crown prince, he has an authentic lineage and a noble status, yet his father didn't pay any attention to him. Instead, he wanted to call back the son born to that concubine to the capital, and even more wanted to hand over the command of the imperial army to the scoundrel born to that concubine. It is simply hateful, extremely hateful.

Ling Yu chattered for a long time, Fan Zhen raised the corners of her lips unhurriedly, smiled coldly, and sarcastically said: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry, although the emperor has already issued an order to call the Third Highness back to the capital, but, That also depends on whether the Third Highness can return smoothly."

"Poor mountains and bad waters, bandits are in power, from the border to Shangjing, there are thousands of mountains and rivers, any accidents may happen on the road, Your Highness, do you think so?"

After Fan Zhen finished speaking, Ling Yu immediately understood what he meant.

Without sweeping away the previous unhappiness, he raised the cup in his hand, and said with a smile: "What big cousin said is very true, I respect big cousin, I do it first to respect." After finishing speaking, he raised his head and rolled his Adam's apple , Drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

Fan Zhen looked at Ling Yu, with a deep sneer on the corner of her mouth, raised her glass symbolically, and drank a glass with him.

"As for Zhenshanfang, hum." Buchu snorted coldly, "A small pastry shop can't do much, His Royal Highness, don't worry about it."

After finishing a few words, Fan Zhen lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Ling Yu.

Suddenly recalling, a petite figure flashed through her mind, recalling the scene she had seen before, the corners of Fan Zhen's mouth raised a little higher, the sneer gradually disappeared, and a slightly warmer smile appeared on her face.

That girl is courageous, decisive, has a hot temper, and has a sharp mouth. At such a young age, she turns out to be the behind-the-scenes owner of the Queen's Pastry Shop. not bad.

Hussar General's Mansion.

Dou Qingwan vomited several mouthfuls of blood on the street, and when she was carried back to the General's Mansion, her complexion was pale, her chest heaved and she was panting heavily, as if she was going to burp and die if she was not careful.

Dou Wei lost his beloved son, and seeing Dou Qingwan's half-dead look, suddenly, his heart tightened.

Immediately ordered the servants to send Dou Qingwan back to the boudoir, and then ordered the servants to invite the doctor to see a doctor.

Fortunately, after the doctor's consultation, he only said that Dou Qingwan's qi and blood were attacking her heart, and after taking a few doses of medicine to regulate her qi and blood, there was no serious problem, so Dou Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

After Langzhong left, Dou Wei ordered his subordinates to call Shao Yao and the coachman to the hall.
