The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 74
Yesterday, she was a little carried away from the drunkenness, Shangguan Qing learned from the pain and decided to be an honest child for a few days, and was thinking of retreating in the embroidery pavilion for a few days, when He Ye, who was on duty for the day, came in and reported: "Girl, someone is coming from the house."

The mansion she mentioned refers to the Shangguan family.

Since moving out, Shangguan Qing has never been back. She has no nostalgia for that home, but has a deep vigilance on the contrary.

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to deliver the post, saying it's the old lady's birthday, let the girl go back."

Shangguan Qing took the gold-plated post from the lotus leaf and smelled a scent of red flowers on it, which should be a plant similar to saffron, used for dyeing and painting gold.

"It's really a waste?! No." Shangguan Qing sniffed it carefully again, threw the post aside in disgust, and ordered: "Burn it, and you go back and say, I will go back someday."

"promise."

He Ye was puzzled, but still took the post down.

"This small dose has also been used on me, and I am beyond my control." Shangguan Qing looked at the leaving lotus leaf, feeling a deep hatred for the women in Shangguan's back house.

The gold paint on the post is not saffron, but a plant similar to it, which has a cold attribute, and women are prone to infertility if exposed to too much.However, this kind of thing requires long-term exposure and a large amount of food. Such a small amount of gold-painted paint has no effect at all. I really don't know who made the foolish trick.

"Old lady? It should be my grandmother. The original owner only met a few times during festivals, so I really don't remember it." Shangguan Qing searched in memory for a long time before finding a very vague detail.

It seems that their relationship is not close.

Although she didn't want to go back to that fucking house, but due to her father's affection, Shangguan Qing decided to go back. She definitely couldn't do it empty-handed. She thought for a while and called people in. He Ye came in with two maids. Shangguan Qing asked: "Is it burning?"

"Burned."

"Tomorrow is my grandmother's birthday, prepare four gifts for me, as usual, no more, no less."

"promise."

"Also, prepare some ink sticks for my father. The inksmith didn't make ink, but burned a lot of good ink. Unfortunately, none of them are what I want."

Shangguan Qing got upset when she mentioned this matter, she made it very clear, but it just couldn't be made there, the school was about to start to recruit students, and the problem of printing textbooks hadn't been resolved yet.

He Ye reported cautiously: "The Sixth Highness lives in Zhuangzi in the south, and there is a highly skilled blacksmith. Would you like to talk to the Sixth Highness..."

She couldn't continue speaking halfway through, and hurriedly lowered her head.

Shangguan Qing said lightly: "You are loyal."

The head of the lotus leaf is lower.

The sixth prince Chu Qianyun came to her to ask for shares, but she just refused, how could she ask Chu Qianyun for help?

The prince who can be escorted can only feel at ease if he belongs to one camp.

The prince Chu Qianyu felt very weird, and he was suspected of sending people to assassinate Chu Qianshui and Chu Qianhan. Before the problem was clarified, Shangguan Qing planned to stay away from the prince's party.

…………

Shangguan's inner house.

Mrs. Shangguan asked the boy who had been reporting back and forth again: "Did the second girl agree to come back?"

"Yes, the second girl sent someone to say that she will come back that day."

"You didn't see her?"

"No."

"Understood, you go down!" Mrs. Shangguan waved the boy to go down, and Shangguan Xiao on the side went one step further, telling everyone to leave.

"Mother, that lowly maid is getting more and more arrogant." Shangguan Xiao said in a bad tone.Ever since she heard that Shangguan Qing was bestowed the title of county lord by the emperor, the jealousy in her heart was hard to suppress. She couldn't bear the fact that someone who had been trampled under her feet suddenly rose to a height that she couldn't reach one day.

In several dreams, Shangguan Xiao would dream of the beauty of her childhood, she could bully Shangguan Qing wantonly, but Shangguan Qing didn't know how to resist at that time.

"If she has no secrets, the title of the county lord will be mine." Every time Shangguan Xiao thinks of this, he can't help but want to scratch Shangguan Qing's face.

"Why is that lowly maidservant? Those should all be mine." Shangguan Xiao managed to keep from shouting out the words in his heart.

When the maid in the room retreated, Shangguan Xiao said: "Mother, I have already ordered the things to be prepared, and I just wait for tomorrow to act, but... can the prince really come?"

"Why should the prince come? The same goes for everyone else." Mrs. Shangguan had scruples in her heart. She still wanted to be the prime minister's wife. If her daughter married the prince, Shangguan Wenhe's future would be ruined.

"Didn't it be agreed before? Why did it change again?" Shangguan Xiao was dissatisfied.She doesn't care about her father's future, she wants to be the concubine of the prince Chu Qianhan, even if she is a side concubine.If this can be used to provoke the relationship between the Tian family and the prince to be deposed, Chu Qianhan may also become the prince, and then she will be the prince concubine, the future empress of Chu.

"The prince is not easy to invite. If your father doesn't agree, the invitation can't be sent out." Mrs. Shangguan shook her head.

"I went to tell my father that grandma's birthday would be honored by inviting the crown prince."

Mrs. Shangguan grabbed her whimsical daughter and said, "Silly boy, it's not appropriate for your father to invite you for such a noble status as a prince."

Shangguan Xiao snorted unwillingly, and asked: "Mother has a suitable candidate?" She acted cooperatively, but she had other ideas in her mind. She was going to find someone to inform the prince, saying that Shangguan Qing would Go back to Shangguan's house to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. If the prince is willing, he will definitely come.

Shangguan Xiao was thinking carefully, and Mrs. Shangguan said: "I met Mrs. Ru from Rong'anhou's family in the northwest yesterday. They spoke for the Zhenbei Palace and wanted to get the cement formula and kiln blueprint in advance. I don’t want to wait three years, I’m willing to give this amount.” After finishing speaking, he stretched out his five fingers proudly and flipped it three times, which was [-] gold.

Shangguan Xiao asked anxiously: "Mother agreed."

Mrs. Shangguan said bitterly: "I only agreed to take the word, and you also know that lowly maid, now she doesn't listen to me."

Only then did Shangguan Xiao breathe a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "It's fine if mother doesn't agree. I've inquired about it. This year's plan for repairing the wall in the capital alone is this amount." The voice says a number.

"So much?!" Mrs. Shangguan was shocked.

"I heard that the lowly maid only left 40% of the dry shares, [-]% were given to the second, third and eighth princes, and the remaining [-]% ​​of the dry shares were divided into [-] shares and sold to the dignitaries in Beijing. , the price of one share is [-] gold, and it is said that it has been sold out, and the income is [-] gold at one time."

"40 gold?" Mrs. Shangguan was shocked again. This is a huge amount of money. According to the scale of the Shangguan family's property, she would not be able to accumulate such a large amount of wealth without eating or drinking for 100 years.

The previous figures were just expectations, but the 40 gold was real.

"So mother must not agree, as long as father comes forward, even if the lowly servant girl is not happy, he will give us some dry shares."

"Let me think about it."
