Chapter 1586

Speaking of the string of coral beads, Osmanthus fragrans didn't even know how much it was worth.

That stuff wasn't Osmanthus fragrans' property, nor Ling Chenyi's, but a gift from Xiaoshan Cunkou, the third prince of Dongfan Kingdom, to Osmanthus fragrans when Osmanthus fragrans was on an envoy to Dongfan.

Dongfan Kingdom is near the sea, so he is much more familiar with the things in the sea than Ming Luochao.

In the Ming and Luo Dynasties, things like fish were only served on the table when the people were extremely poor and had no food to eat, but in Dongfan it was already commonplace.

If this is the case with fish, then they will naturally see much less than Ming Luochao on aquatic treasures such as pearls and corals.

But it was precisely because of this relationship that Osmanthus fragrans didn't take this string of coral beads seriously. The reason why she brought it back to Antao Town this time was because she wanted to use it as a gift.

Today's arrangement is in line with Osmanthus's mind, but if Osmanthus knows the true value of the string, I'm afraid she will vomit blood from distress.

It is said that unintentionally planting willows and willows into shade, the sweet-scented osmanthus is given away today, but in exchange for the loyalty of Meng Liang and his wife to her.

Compared with the help Meng Liang and his wife gave to Osmanthus fragrans in the future, the string of beads is actually not considered a waste, at least it is much better than being put on the shelf of osmanthus fragrans to catch ashes.

After Osmanthus calmed down after having made the final decision, she began to ask people to investigate the matter of the old house.

Three days later, she appeared in person at the gate of Meng Liang's mansion.

When Mengshang saw the sweet-scented osmanthus, her nervous heart was finally relieved at this moment.

Although she has been comforting Meng Liang for the past few days, how could she not be nervous.

But now that Osmanthus fragrans is only wearing ordinary clothes, not the formal attire of the imperial concubine or the official uniform of court ministers, it seems that Osmanthus fragrans is really only here as a personal friend.

When the two women met, it was natural for them to have some small talk, and after greeting each other, Osmanthus just started talking about the business.

"I have read all the news sent by Mr. Meng in the past few days. Thanks to the presence of Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng in Antao Town in the past few years, otherwise, I am afraid that we will not be able to see the current Antao Town."

Hearing Osmanthus fragrans say this, Mengshang couldn't help being excited and nervous, hurriedly got up to give a blessing, and said: "The concubine is serious, my lord is the parent officer of Antao Town, and I should take good care of this place, otherwise I will live up to the past. The concubine's trust."

"Well, I understand." Osmanthus fragrans nodded, motioned for Meng Shang to sit down again, and said, "I will sit here to listen in two days. As for the case of the old house of the Chu family, I will leave it to Mr. Meng to handle it."

Meng Shang was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Concubine Shizi, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's wrong!"

"Huh?" Osmanthus fragrans raised her eyebrows and looked at Mengshang, but she saw that Mengshang's whole body trembled, but she still bit the bullet and explained: "Shizi concubine Mingjian, aside from other things, that Chu Yanyi in the old house of the Chu family He is a scholar, if he is to be punished, he must be punished by the magistrate Yao. Besides, the old house of the Chu family is the in-laws of the prefect. I can understand. Even with the backing of the concubine, my master really shouldn't be afraid of power. But after all, my master is just a small official, and if this kind of case is really investigated, it must go through the hands of the magistrate to be justified."

Listening to Meng Shang's words, Osmanthus's expression didn't change at all, she just raised her hand and took a sip of tea, and didn't put down the teacup until Meng Shang finished speaking, "Mrs. luck."

After finishing speaking, Osmanthus smiled, got up and said: "You don't have to worry too much about the other side. After three days, you will be promoted to the court for questioning, and Master Meng will come to sit in the court for trial. As for the rest, this concubine has her own arrangements. Alright, what time is it today?" It's getting late, the Ling family has other things to do, so this concubine left first."
