Chapter 904 Tang Lin is Back

The imperial court sent a large number of imperial envoys, and the boiling public opinion in the capital finally calmed down, and everyone was waiting quietly for the final result.

Both Prince Yu's Mansion and the Eldest Princess' Mansion were sealed off, and the only one who was able to move around freely was the married Shi Tianqi. Because there was no hope of marrying Gu Yun, the Eldest Princess made the decision, contacted other princesses, and got in touch with many relatives of the son-in-law's family. She chose a marriage, because she didn't choose her grandson and son-in-law from Zhao's in-laws, Concubine Zhao Xian was very angry with her daughter.

Who would have thought that in the current chaos, only Shi Tianqi was running around for the sake of her natal family regardless of her early pregnancy, putting aside the face of being a daughter of the clan, and visiting every family, begging the elders of the clan and the Dajiuqings to intercede with the saint, even if she was allowed to enter... The palace face saint is also fine, because of an accident with her children, Concubine Zhao Xian's palace was also banned, and Shi Tianqi was forbidden to enter the palace at the same time, she had no choice but to ask for help.

It's just that no one in the government and the public is willing to help Shi Tianqi, and no one intercedes in front of the saint. Concubine Zhao Xian has been favored for decades, making the Zhao family in Dacheng prefecture and county a big one. Everyone in the officialdom is disregarding the relationship and moving closer to the prince. Everyone is afraid of getting involved with the Zhao family, even if Shi Tianqi is already someone else's daughter-in-law.

Shi Tianqi, who had nothing to do, washed his face with tears at home. Occasionally, when he relieved himself, he found blood on his pants. The husband's family rushed to the imperial doctor, but it was too late when the imperial doctor arrived, and Shi Tianqi had already miscarried.

The man's family was naturally very unhappy about this. They thought marrying the eldest princess' daughter would be a happy event that would be beneficial to the family. Who would have thought that the Zhao family would be in such a big crisis. His natal family didn't care about himself and the child in his womb, and even his husband, who had always cared for Shi Tianqi, was dissatisfied with her. During his wife's confinement period, he simply moved to a wing room and called him every night. The house girl sleeps with her.

In this sad and hopeless mood, Shi Tianqi accidentally saw that the maids under his command had brought the newly bought daily necessities at home, thermos bottles that can keep hot water or ice water warm for four hours, and Gu Yun's factory was specially launched for winter The new product, thermos bottles are big and small, there are two-liter large bottles, there are also half-liter small bottles, everyone can have hot water at any time.

Looking at the small bottle on the table for adding boiling water, Shi Tianqi thought of Gu Yun, his eagle, and the special feelings he had for Gu Yun when he was a girl, and suddenly an irresistible urge surged in his heart , wanted to go for a walk in the street, wanted to see Gu Yun.

The girls couldn't persuade Shi Tianqi, so they had to prepare a sedan chair and take her for a drive in the workshop. On Shizi Street, Shi Tianqi saw a shop selling thermos bottles. The big poster at the entrance of the shop said "Caring for your family, stopping cholera, drinking and boiling." Many people are queuing up to buy clean water, carrying it home with two left hands and two right hands.

Shi Tianqi asked the bearer to park the sedan chair across the street, and didn't go anywhere. She just watched the customers coming and going in and out of the store through the sedan window, thinking that Gu Yun's business was really done, as long as there were new things It will always attract people to line up.

The girls didn't know what she wanted to do. After standing in the cold wind in the early winter for a while, everyone couldn't stand it anymore. They tried to make grandma think that the family was blooming and taking care of her body, so she persuaded Shi Tianqi to go home.

The husband's family learned from the servants that this grandma was just watching people coming and going on the street, so they thought that she might be suffocated at home. If she racked her brains to save her natal relatives and took the interests of her husband's family as her own responsibility, she would still be a good daughter-in-law of their family.

But when Shi Tianqi returned home, she was still thinking about Gu Yun. She suddenly remembered the matter of the farm. She and her brother are the major shareholders of joint investment. She could meet with Gu Yun because she cared about the income of the farm, and maybe she could get some information from him. to something she didn't know about.

Shi Tianqi, who couldn't sit still, immediately wrote a letter to Ning Peilan, and asked her to hold a meeting with major shareholders on the grounds of year-end income. Shi Tianmin is locked up at home now and doesn't come, so it is reasonable for her to come forward.

The servant who served took the letter and handed it to the wife at home to open it for inspection. Seeing that it only said that the shareholders met to discuss the year-end dividends, nothing else was mentioned, so they took a new envelope and asked them to re-copy it according to the handwriting. Once again, then put the letter into this new envelope and seal it, and send it to Chengjun Prince's Mansion.

When Ning Peilan received the letter, she was chatting with Bai Kou in the house while eating the pastries and snacks that Bai Kou brought back from the street. Thermos bottles were sold very well and were very popular. The ones that were bought were less than a hundred, so it goes without saying that the ones that were too many were just for the harem distribution. The first order was 4000. According to the size of the capacity, there are large bottles, small bottles, and small bottles. You can supply as much as you order, and the factory has sufficient stock.

The servants brought in the letter, and seeing that it was written by Shi Tianqi, Ning Peilan picked up the letter cutter and prepared to open the letter by herself, but Bai Kou saw something wrong with the words on the cover, and pressed Ning Peilan in time. Perrin's hand.

"Wait a minute, something is wrong with this letter."

"What's wrong?" Ning Peilan put down the knife and handed the envelope to Bai Kou.

"The handwriting is wrong, the focus is different, and there are traces of deliberate imitation. Do you still have Shi Tianqi's previous letters? Take it out and compare it."

The girl hurriedly fetched Shi Tianqi's letter. At first glance, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, but when she went outside and compared it with the sunlight, she found that there were indeed some slight differences.

"Your eyes are too sharp, you can see something is wrong just at a glance!" Ning Peilan smiled and returned to the room with Bai Kou, and frowned slightly when they sat down again, "If there is something wrong with the handwriting, the letter Shi Tianqi sent me It seems that someone opened it up and read it separately, is this an assumption? Then the contents of the letter here don’t know if it’s true or not.”

"Let's take it apart and see what's written."

Bai Kou picked up the letter cutter and cut open the envelope. Inside was Shi Tianqi asking Ning Peilan to call the major shareholders to meet and discuss the year-end dividends. There was no other redundant content.

"She's short of money?" Ning Peilan thought it shouldn't be the case, "She is a daughter of the clan, and the treatment she deserves will not be less. How can she be short of money?"

"Maybe it's not a lack of money, but we don't know her true intentions. The letter has been opened by someone else, and maybe a few pages are missing."

"The man's family is really bold. Shi Tianqi's surname is not Gong, but she is a daughter of the clan. They dare to play tricks like this before the Zhao family collapses."

"The situation in Concubine Zhao Xian's family is not good, and the man's family must feel conflicted about Shi Tianqi now."

"Actually, there is a gossip recently. I don't know if you have heard of it."

"What gossip?"

"Shi Tianqi had a miscarriage a while ago because he was running around for his mother's family. He should be in confinement now."

"Oh, this is really unfortunate news." Bai Kou also frowned, "It seems that I have been too busy recently to notice this news, who she married, I seem to have forgotten, and the congratulatory gift seems to be from me Worrying."

"You really didn't care, it's not that you forgot, the congratulatory gifts were sent to my Ning family's warehouse to pick out the congratulatory gifts, and they have become regular customers of my mother's big warehouse."

"Don't worry."

Ning Peilan smiled, and instead of playing tricks with Bai Kou, she pointed to the letter, "What about this letter now?"

"Reply, make an appointment with her, isn't she in confinement, she can arrange for a day when it is convenient for her, it is not a secret that their brother and sister are the major shareholders of the farm, politics belongs to politics, business belongs to business, not to mention the eldest princess The government has taken such a big scapegoat for us, and now we can do something small as a reward."

"You're the only one with a lot of ideas."

"By the way, the sender must insist on handing over the letter in person, and don't let him leave without seeing anyone."

"Seeing someone bring the letter back?"

"Tell Shi Tianqi that her letter has been opened."

"Bad guy, you're making Shi Tianqi and his husband's family quarrel."

"Maybe she won't make trouble, who knows? Anyway, we didn't provoke discord. Her letter was indeed opened, and her handwriting was deliberately imitated to pretend that the letter was complete. She is a Jurchen from the clan who has been pampered since she was a child." Will you endure this because of the miscarriage?"

"You are a bad guy." Ning Peilan scolded with a smile.

"It's not~"

Bai Kou got up to get a pen and ink, Ning Peilan replied a text message as agreed between the two earlier, and asked her servants to deliver it immediately while it was still early, and told her to hand it over in person, and come back if she didn't see anyone.

After being interrupted by Shi Tianqi's matter, the two of them changed the subject when they were free. Speaking of this winter, Ning Peilan gave birth to a child and she could ask for leave. Bai Kou is now a commoner and has no qualifications, so the two simply discussed it. Taking advantage of Dongshou these few days to call the sisters who stayed in the capital to play together, it happened to be an opportunity to call Shi Tianqi out.

Shi Tianqi must have something to send the letter to meet, no matter whether her husband's family took away other contents after peeking at the letter, in short, we should meet first before talking, let's see what she has to say.

The two of them were chatting lively, and the servants came in again to tell Bai Kou that Tang Lin had returned and was waiting outside the gate, with a whole family beside him.

Bai Kou jumped up and rushed out, Ning Peilan originally wanted to go with her, but when she chased her out of the room, Bai Kou had already run away, Ning Peilan had to get dressed and go back to the room to wait.

As soon as she ran to the front yard, Bai Kou was stopped by a servant and took her to the flower hall to meet guests. Since the guest was Tang Lin, who has become famous recently, how could the butler of the palace neglect the guests, and prepared exquisite refreshments for the long-distance The trekking guests relieved their fatigue.

"Uncle, you are back!"

As soon as Bai Kou entered the flower hall, she ran towards Tang Lin and hugged him tightly before he stood up.
