Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 117 Implicated
God knows who she offended, such a small matter, Wei Minghui has long forgotten, Ming concubine thinks that Su Shi and Dingbeihou are implicated in all likelihood.

The second wife must have asked for something, but they refused to agree, and they happened to see Wei Minghui's innocent look again, and they were annoyed, so they took Wei Minghui out of their anger.

Ming concubine took a deep breath, not only Su Shi is naive, but she herself is naive enough, why should she count on Su Shi, Su Shi looks soft and easy to bully, the second wife is fierce and thick-skinned, Su Shi and her face each other On the other hand, the unscrupulous two will be defeated if they go back and forth, Ming concubine said, "Mother, I will handle this matter myself, don't worry about it."

Mrs. Su was about to ask Ming concubine what she planned to do, when a voice from the servant girl outside asked for peace, "I have seen Lord Hou."

The door was pushed open, and Marquis Dingbei stepped in. Seeing that only Mrs. Su and Ming concubine, plus Xi'er, were in the room, he couldn't help but said, "Mother and daughter, what kind of self-deprecating words did you throw the maids out?"

Su sneered and said, "What else can I say, I'm teaching my concubine, when Lord Hou comes back from the palace later, the emperor must reward her and ask her to ask for it, so that she won't put it all in the palace and return it later." Being stared at."

The corner of Dingbeihou's mouth twitched, and he said, "This time, the emperor has rewarded me a lot, two pieces of brocade are given to the old lady, and the rest are given to my concubine as a dowry."

"That's about the same," Su asked with a smile, "Where are the two beauties?"

Marquis Dingbei sat down, Xi'er hurriedly poured tea for him, he said, "The emperor has rewarded me, and I will definitely not take it back, and I can't give it away casually, it just so happened that Prince Yun's mansion sent a memorial to the palace, saying it will not be long If you want to come to Beijing, when the time comes, there will be a banquet in the mansion for Prince Yun’s mansion, let Prince Yun ask for a beauty, bring it to the fief, and then I will accuse the emperor and suffer a few reprimands, and the matter will be over."

Su Clan was a little disappointed that they couldn't be sent away immediately, but at least they made arrangements for them, and they were thoughtful, and no one would offend them.

Su Shi talked to Dingbeihou about the two beauties going to Jinwang's mansion to get things, but Dingbeihou didn't care about the two beauties, he didn't take this matter to heart, and followed Su's arrangement.

While talking, the servant girl outside came to report that Miss Ziyue and Miss Qingshuang had returned home.

Mrs. Su let them in, and the two of them entered the room gracefully and gracefully, graceful and graceful.

When they were blessed and saluted, Su Shi said, "You all know why you were rewarded by the emperor to Lord Hou, so I won't say more. Lord Hou's old illnesses are gradually recovering, but after all, he is not healed yet. You have to rest and recuperate well for two months, and I will show you guys in two months. It is not suitable for you to live in the East Courtyard as a girl. I will ask the maid to help you move to Tingyuxuan, and you will not use it to greet me, eat and wear According to the standard of hospitality in the mansion, if there is something missing, let the servant girl report it."

After Su's order was finished, she glanced at Lord Hou, "Master Hou, how about this arrangement?"

Lord Hou nodded, "Listen to Madam."

Ziyue and Qingshuang looked at each other, and the light in their eyes was flowing. Didn't it mean that Dingbeihou's body was healed, but they were left to dry for two months? Do offspring consolidate status?
They were rewarded by the emperor, and unless they died, they would never leave Dingbeihou's mansion.

Two months can't change anything, the two of them respectfully and politely thanked each other.

The two of them didn't have the restlessness of those concubines in the mansion, their eyes circled around Lord Hou, and when they caught the opportunity, they would babble, and the bones of the people with crisp voices softened a little, but the more peaceful they were, the less Su Shi dared not take it lightly. Was it an ordinary person who was chosen by the King of Jin to be a chess piece in the palace?
Before the two of them left, their gazes swept across Ming Concubine's body, and they smiled all over the city. Ming Concubine smiled with a big question mark on her head: Why did you seduce her?
Dingbei Hou sat down for a while and then left. The reward he brought back from the palace, two pieces of cloud brocade honored the old lady, and the rest were sent to Youlan Garden.

Four pieces of Sichuan brocade, two paintings, a pair of jade ruyis, a small box of pearls and a pair of colored porcelain, Su's favorite pearls, smiled and said to Ming concubine, "These pearls are lustrous and lustrous, and tomorrow my mother will send them to the Su family. Put it on your wedding dress, it must be beautiful."

Ming concubine was planning to go back to Hanyuyuan, but Xueyan came to report that Wei Minghui had woken up and returned to Chu Yuxuan, so Ming concubine would just accompany Su for lunch.

After eating half a bowl too much for lunch, my stomach was a little full, so I went to the garden to enjoy the flowers. While admiring the peonies, I was thinking about how to help Wei Minghui. I was a little absorbed in my thoughts, so I heard Xi'er say, "Girl, fifth girl and the others are back from shopping. .”

When Ming concubine turned her head, she saw Wei Mingyi and the others walking over talking and laughing, and the maidservants behind them were holding a thick stack of books.

Originally, they were going back, and when they saw Ming Concubine, they said loudly, "I thought Qing Yaxuan's books were cheap enough, but I didn't expect there to be even cheaper ones. Poor Qing Yaxuan posted a banner a few days ago saying that if you buy expensive books, you will be refunded. Those who returned the books almost broke the threshold of Qingyaxuan."

When Xi'er heard this, her eyes widened, "Is there anything cheaper than Qingyaxuan?"

Over there, Wei Mingyi continued, "It is estimated that in two days, Qingyaxuan will be closed again."

Xi'er looked at Ming Concubine worriedly, and Ming Concubine said, "Go and find out what happened."

Xi'er nodded, and hurried to the front yard to inquire, but after walking for a long time, a servant girl didn't know what she had said to her, so she ran back and said, "Miss, the third cousin is here."

Ming concubine walked towards the outer courtyard, and as soon as she reached the second gate, she saw Su Yang, and she said, "Cousin is here for Qingyaxuan?"

Su Yang looked solemn, "Cousin also heard about it?"

Ming concubine only said, "I only know one thing. I was planning to let the servant girl inquire about it when my cousin came. What's going on?"

Su Yang said helplessly, "Zhuangyuanfang is crazy, and it will bring down Qingyaxuan even if it loses money."

If the Su family has strong financial resources, they can choose to fight with Zhuangyuanfang to the end, but the Su family only has Qingyaxuan as a profitable business, so they are afraid that Zhuangyuanfang will not collapse, Qingyaxuan will collapse first, and the Su family will have nothing to do, so we can only let Su Yang come to find it Let's see if there is any way to save it.

Ming concubine asked curiously, "The books in Zhuangyuanfang are manuscripts, how can there be so many books?"

Su Yang replied, "Zhuangyuanfang originally stored a lot of books, and with the purchase of books from nearby counties and counties, there are a lot of books..."

Because of this, Su Yang said that Zhuangyuanfang was crazy.

Zhuangyuanfang doesn't care whether it can make money, what they want is that Qingyaxuan has no business to do.

Hearing this, Ming concubine chuckled, "If this is the case, the Su family needn't be in a hurry."

Su Yang looked at Ming Concubine in surprise, how could he not be in a hurry, his grandfather was getting angry, Ming Concubine laughed, "Manuscripts are limited after all, they are no better than printed ones, no matter how rich Zhuangyuanfang is, there are no books for sale. It won't last long, and all the books from the nearby states and counties have been sent to Kyoto, which means that there are fewer books in the states and counties. The Su family can temporarily abandon Kyoto and transport books to other states and counties for sale. I don't believe in Zhuangyuanfang. They can continue to chase after Qingyaxuan."

To do business, you need to be flexible, and when you are in trouble, you must find a way to find a way out.
