Chapter 159

When Shu Yidong and Ning Shi saw Shu Qing coming in, they asked Shu Qing to sit down very enthusiastically, and asked the servants to bring tea quickly.

This made Shu Qing feel puzzled. Based on Shu Yidong and Ning's previous attitudes, seeing her should be very unpleasant, and they must know that they have nothing to go to the Three Treasures Hall, and they are here to ask for money, but Shu Yidong is fine. , and the guards, they all behaved so abnormally, could it be that they were planning something?
But Shu Qing is not afraid, no matter what idea Shu Yidong and the others have, she will not let him succeed.

When Wang Shilang saw Shu Qing, his eyes lit up, and he really wanted to build a relationship, but when he was about to get up, he suddenly realized that Shu Qing's identity was just a poor man at the moment, and that Shu Qing didn't give him a good face last time, so he took the Said sarcastically:
"Miss Shu is safe and well."

"Everything is fine, please bear with me."

Shu Qing didn't take Wang Shilang's ridicule to heart at all, but made Wang Shilang hold his breath.

He simply put his sights on Shu Yidong again:
"Prime Minister Shu, you can't even get 50 taels, can you?"

"You bully people too much!!" Ning couldn't help but cursed:

"At the beginning, you obviously gave the master a deposit of 5 taels, but now you want the master to give you 50 taels. This is obviously unreasonable."

She was so angry that she lost her previous dignity and gentleness. A thick-skinned person like Wang Shilang really deserves to die. The most important thing is that Shu Yidong really can't afford 30 taels now.

Wang Shilang snorted coldly and said:
"With Wang's ability, 5 taels of silver can earn 50 taels a month. Prime Minister Shu is the prime minister, so naturally he is no worse than Wang. He must have made more money with Wang's 5 taels."

Shu Qing almost wanted to laugh, everyone in the capital didn't know that Shu Yidong typically only knows about court affairs, and doesn't know anything about business. Most of her food and clothing over the years has come from the proceeds from the dowry shop left by her mother.

Not to mention giving Shu Yidong 5 taels to do business, even if you give him 50 taels, you can lose even your clothes in a month.

In Beijing, everyone knows that Shu Yidong is a typical 'Shu nerd', which means that he is more nerd than nerd in business.

Shu Yidong was ridiculed by Wang Shilang, and his face became more and more ugly. Seeing this, Ning immediately issued an order to evict the guest:

"Wang Shilang, you are arguing. Here is a 5 taels of silver note, which is your original deposit. If you are sensible, take it and leave. If not, we will meet at the government."

If in the past, Wang Shilang's official position was naturally inferior to Shu Yidong's, but yesterday his daughter came back late and brought him great news. With the fifth prince as a backer, what is there to be afraid of Shu Yidong, and her daughter knew that he had asked Shu Yidong for Shu Qing's paintings, and asked him to continue asking for the fifth prince as a dowry.

Wang Shilang thought about it, if his daughter had Shu Qing's painting as a dowry, it would be the most beautiful, but if not, it would be nice to ask for an extra 50 taels. He already knew the bad relationship between Shu Qing and Shu Yidong, and felt that It would be better to ask for 50 taels of silver if the painting is fruitless, so I came here early in the morning.

"Huh! Prime Minister Shu, Mrs. Shu, even if you say you want to see the official, Wang will listen to you, but Wang persuades Prime Minister Shu not to do unnecessary things. Even if you meet the official, Wang is justified. If Shu Prime Minister really can't afford the money, so why not ask Ms. Shu to make a painting for Wang, after all, Prime Minister Shu has raised Ms. Shu Shu for more than ten years, so he always knows how to be grateful."

Shu Yidong and Ning Shi looked at each other tacitly upon hearing this, and then said to Wang Shilang with an unspeakable expression:
"The truth has allowed Miss Shu to grow up to such a great age. Even if Miss Shu was not born to the truth, it was a mistake to sit down and sever the relationship on the spur of the moment. But the truth has always treated Miss Shu as her own daughter. , Ms. Shu is beautiful and wise, and she knows how to repay her kindness. It only takes two hours to make a painting, so she shouldn't refuse, but Truth has no face to talk to Miss Shu. Truth really wants to ask Shu about it now. Miss Shu, can you forgive me, I have always felt guilty, I hope Miss Shu can return to the prime minister's residence."

Shu Qing looked at Wang Shilang, Shu Yidong and others, her face turned cold, she didn't expect that Shu Yidong had such an idea.

She never expected that Shu Yidong's face could be so thick. In the past, she was always called a vicious woman, and she was said to have no rules, no talent and no virtue, and she lost all the face of the prime minister's mansion. Now it is said that she is beautiful and intelligent.

And he said that he had no face to ask her to paint, but his painting was clearly saying that if she didn't paint for him, she would be an ungrateful person. Is it possible that people who plot against her like this will feel guilty? It's just a joke.

Shu Qing wanted to refuse without even thinking about it, but she heard an indifferent voice from outside:
"Father, is Ms. Shu Qing the kind of vacillating person? She had severed ties with you in public, and now if she returns to the prime minister's mansion, how will you make others think of Ms. Shu Qing? You don't think well about your father. .”

As the words fell, Shu Qing watched a woman with a graceful figure but a cold temperament walk in.

She was wearing a plain dress, but whether it was her eyes or her temperament, she had that kind of indifference and alienation that rejected people thousands of miles away, and her eyes didn't even look at Shu Qing and the others, as if It was as if Shu Qing and the others couldn't catch her eyes at all.

When Shu Yidong and Ning Shi saw Shu Yilian coming out, they frowned and said with displeasure:
"Lian'er, my father is entertaining guests, what can you say later."

In fact, he was still a little jealous of Shu Yilian, because the story of Shu Yilian's Nake could be true. Otherwise, Yin Qinghe's health was obviously good, but he died because of dystocia. The midwife said at that time, Yin Qinghe The birth situation is not like dystocia, but like a sudden death. Doesn't this mean being restrained to death?

If it wasn't for the few daughters in the family, only Shu Yilian conformed to the late emperor's will, he would definitely not have brought Shu Yilian back to the mansion.

I thought that Shu Yilian would be very fond of him and Ning Shi, but who knows that he has a cold temper, looks very similar to Shu Qing, but he always feels that Shu Yilian has a kind of personality that even he doesn't like. The delusion in his eyes, especially the fact that Shu Yilian left in front of him, Shu An and others yesterday, made him feel even worse. In addition, Gong Wushang looked completely uninterested in Shu Yilian, He is also a little imaginary.

Therefore, I discussed with Shu An and Ning last night, if not, I would try to find a chance to try to lure Shu Qing back to the house, so that the dowry and bride price would come back.

He specially ordered the housekeeper early in the morning to inform him that he must treat Shu well after seeing him. Unexpectedly, Shu Qing just came, but it was a coincidence.

But now that Shu Yilian came out to make trouble, he would naturally be dissatisfied with Shu Yilian's move, and reminded her to go in quickly.

Shu Yilian, as if she couldn't understand Shu Yidong's hint, sat firmly in her seat, and said slowly:
"Father, my daughter is not young anymore. Although she is a woman, she has practiced martial arts. She thinks she is no worse than most men. Father shouldn't keep her daughter in the boudoir. Since ancient times, there are so many women who don't let their eyebrows down. Naturally, my daughter hopes to be able to do it for her." Father is more worried."

Shu Yidong knew that Shu Yilian learned martial arts when he was on the mountain, and even made up a war dance, but because of an accident at the birthday banquet, he couldn't continue, but he had seen Shu Yilian's superb martial arts with his own eyes. Therefore, listening to Shu Yilian's words, his face softened a lot, and his tone softened a little:
"I'm very pleased with Lian'er's kindness for my father, but this time Wang Shilang wants your sister Shu Qing's painting, you can't help with this matter, you go in first."

Shu Qing looked at their scene of loving father and daughter and felt it was extremely funny. She didn't want to waste time, so she said bluntly:
"Prime Minister Shu said carefully, my mother only gave birth to my daughter, but no sister. Today I came to ask Prime Minister Shu if he has prepared the money he owed. Shu Cheng sometimes asked me to give me a few days, and now it has passed. After ten days, Prime Minister Shu should fulfill his promise."

Shu Yidong didn't expect Shu Qing to be so impolite, his face was a little dark, the atmosphere just now was very good, if it wasn't for Shu Yilian's interruption, he would have played the family card more, and he might have a chance to fool Shu Qing back, but now seeing Shu Yi Qing's attitude must be because he was angry because of Shu Yilian's words, and he couldn't bring up the matter of letting her come back.

Seeing Shu Yidong's unkind feelings, Shu Yilian smiled and said to Shu Qing:
"Miss Shu Qing, you have lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion for more than ten years. You should also know that my father has always been an upright official. Let alone more than 300 million taels, even more than 30 taels will not be available. Are you deliberately making things difficult for my father? ?”

Although the corner of Shu Yilian's mouth is upturned, Shu Qing only saw contempt and impoliteness in Shu Yilian's eyes.

But she was not angry, instead she said with a half-smile:

"Miss Shu Yilian is wrong. To be precise, I have only lived in the prime minister's mansion for two years, so naturally I don't know how the prime minister's family is, but I do know that the prime minister's mansion has a medicinal herb called Baiyelian, which is the name of His Royal Highness. As a birthday present for Mrs. Shu, although the lotus is not worth more than 300 million taels, Prime Minister Shu should also know that I have long admired His Highness the Crown Prince, if Prime Minister Shu is willing to use a lotus to pay for it, then I am willing to accept it."

Seeing this, Ning's eyes lit up immediately, and she looked at Shu Yidong.

She was very worried that Shu Yidong would take out her dowry to compensate Shu Qing, and she was even more afraid that Shu Yidong would ask her to borrow money from her natal family. Now Shu Qing only needs a lily pad to solve it, which is great.

But Shu Yidong was not very happy, he did not forget that one of the herbs needed for his illness was lily pads, if it was given to Shu Qing, what would happen to his illness? !

Seeing that Shu Yidong was not very willing, Shu Qing continued:

"If Prime Minister Shu is unwilling, then I can't help it. It seems that Wang Shilang also wants to report to the official, why don't we report to the official together."

Wang Shilang didn't expect that Shu Qing would mention him suddenly, and he simply nodded his head to agree, but Shu Yilian's voice as cold as ice came at this moment:

"Wait, I can get Ms. Shu Qing's painting, and Wang Shilang only needs to wait for two days."

After Shu Yilian finished speaking, Shu Yidong and Ning looked at Shu Yilian and Shu Qing in surprise. How could they fail to see that there was a discord between Shu Yilian and Shu Qing? As far as painting, it's really unlikely.

Shu Yilian seemed to know what Shu Yidong and the others were thinking, and explained:
"Miss Shu Qing has sold several paintings. I happen to know a friend who has a painting by Miss Shu Qing in his hand. As for Miss Shu Qing who wants Baiyelian, why don't you just give it to her, after all. There is not only one lotus in the capital."

Shu Yilian signaled Shu Yidong to agree to Shu Qing.

Shu Yidong was still amazed that Shu Yilian had only been back for less than a month, yet he had made friends in the capital, and the relationship seemed to be very good, which made Shu Yidong very satisfied with Shu Yilian, thinking that Shu Qing had been in the mansion for two years , only embarrassing the prime minister's mansion, and being run on by everyone in the capital, how can it compare to Shu Yilian, so it seems that Shu Yilian has a good chance to squeeze Shu Qing away and become the future princess.

Although it is still half a year before Shu Qing and His Royal Highness get married, he believes that within six months, Shu Yilian will definitely make His Royal Highness fall in love with her.

Moreover, Shu Yilian hinted just now that she seems to be able to get basil leaves. The basil leaves are indeed not worth more than 300 million taels. Said to the butler:

"Housekeeper, go to the old lady and get the Baiyelian."

The chief steward's complexion was very bad, probably because of his son Niu Shun's imprisonment, he took the order and left in a state of desperation, not as energetic as before.

After the butler left, Shu Yidong said to Wang Shilang in a pleasant manner:

"Wang Shilang, Lian'er said that even if Ms. Shu Qing is not willing to help Zhenxiang draw a painting, Lian'er will get Miss Shu Qing's painting. I hope Wang Shilang can give it another two days."

Shu Yidong smiled very kindly on his face, but he scolded Wang Shilang countless times in his heart. He had already thought that after Shu Yilian became the queen, he would be the uncle and prime minister of the country. The days are coming to an end, and by then he must let Wang Shilang know what regret is.

Shu Qing was puzzled. She remembered that all her paintings had been sold by Shu Muchen, but she didn't know who they sold them to. Including a painting from Gong Wushang and Mr. Qin Hua, there were four in total. Who did Shu Yilian know about the painting?

However, Shu Qing was just a little puzzled, and didn't care about it. After all, even if Shu Yilian really got the sold paintings and gave them to Wang Shilang, she had no intention of pursuing it.

Wang Shilang also seemed very happy. Now that Shu Qing's paintings have increased in value to 50 taels, he can buy 5 taels of paintings with 50 taels of silver. road:

"Then Wang will come back to bother you in two days, and leave."

Shu Yidong asked the waiter to take Wang Shilang out, but he thought in his heart that if he didn't pay the balance when he came to ask for a painting, then it would be time for him to take advantage of him.

As soon as Wang Shilang left, no one spoke in the hall for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became weird. Even if Shu Qing didn't look at Shu Yidong and the others, she could feel the contempt and alienation from these people, but she didn't care at all. Said that these people are just strangers, as long as they don't offend her, she naturally doesn't care, but if they offend her, she will even settle the score of her previous life.

Perhaps Shu Yidong and the others also felt that the silence in the hall was a little awkward. He coughed his throat, and took the initiative to say:

"Shu Qing, since you said that you will pay the IOU with lily pads, should you also take out the IOU?"

Shu Qing sneered inwardly, she just returned Miss Shu Qing, now that she knows there is a solution, she doesn't even bother to address her politely, this is Shu Yidong's face, but the purpose of Shu Qing's visit today is Bai Yelian, so naturally she won't gossip, She nodded and said:
"It's natural."

Shu Qing put her hand into her sleeve, but it was actually into the Qiankun bag, taking out the IOU and unfolding it.

When Shu Yidong saw it, he unceremoniously asked the boy to take it, but Shu Qing put it away when the boy stepped forward:

"Prime Minister Shu, it's better to pay the Baiyelian with one hand and the IOU with the other."

Shu Yidong and Ning's face suddenly became ugly, Shu Yidong said coldly:
"Shu Qing, don't you think that the truth will be denied? You also underestimate the truth."

Shu Qing snorted coldly in her heart, she wasn't worried that Shu Yidong would go back on his word...

"Yaoshou!! Shu Yidong, you unfilial son!!"

Before Shu Qing made a statement, a hoarse and shrill voice came from outside the hall. Hearing the voice of a spy full of anger, it must be Shu An's.

The corner of Shu Qing's mouth curled up into a smile. What she was worried about was that Mr. Shu An would not give it up. As expected, hearing the other party's voice, she should be out of breath, but she believed that Shu Yidong would definitely persuade Mrs. Shu An to give up Bai Yelian in the end.

Shu An's footsteps rushed into the hall, Shu Yidong saw it, and hurriedly got up to meet him, but Shu An's glance was at Shu Qing, who was sitting at the bottom of Shi Shiran's seat, and immediately pointed at Shu Qing's nose with his hips akimbo and cursed. road:
"You little bastard/hoof, you actually want my lilies, I tell you, don't even think about it!! Even if I fall, I won't leave you a leaf. It's not enough for you to move all my property, you still want Kill me! A white-eyed wolf like you deserves to be hacked into pieces!!"

Shu Qing's eyes turned cold and he was about to express his opinion. Xiao Kui, who had been standing behind Shu Qing, rushed forward to block Shu Qing, and said to Shu An's bluntly:

"Our lady is not a little bitch/hoof, but you are like an old bitch/hoof. What our lady took away was the dowry left by the lady's mother and the betrothal gift from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the lady. On the contrary, you are the old lady who has been occupying what belongs to you. Our lady's things, now I have the nerve to slander our lady."

"Ahhh, how dare you scold me, you bitch/servant, come here, beat her to death for me!"

While talking, Shu An hit Xiao Kui.

Xiaokui also practiced martial arts with Li Qing in the past. Although she has not officially started like Shu Qing, her foundation is very solid and her foot is very stable. Xiaokui easily blocked it with her hands, and blocked Shu Qing very steadily, not letting Shu An touch a single hair of Shu Qing.

"How dare you fight back!! Come here soon! Shu Yidong, just watch your mother being bullied by a low/cheap little girl!!"

Shu Yidong felt that Xiaokui, Shu Qing's maid, was too presumptuous, and even scolded his mother, watching a few servants coming forward, she had no intention of stopping her.

Xiaokui was immediately surrounded by four young servants, a little helpless, and was pinched several times by Shu An's, and was almost eaten tofu by a wretched young servant.

Not only did Shu Qing's eyes turn cold, but even the temperament of his whole body became cold. He stood up abruptly, and kicked the boy who wanted to eat Xiaokui tofu away.

"Ah! Pfft!!"

After the boy was handed over and kicked out, he hit the pillar and slipped down, spitting out a mouthful of blood and passed out.

Shu Yidong's expression changed, but Shu Qing kicked the other three servants away with three kicks, and one of them just hit Shu An's body, and brought her flying two feet away.

"Ah! Yaoshou, I'm going to die!"

Shu An was pressed down by the servant, and could only scream in pain.

Shu Yidong hurriedly pulled the servant away, helped Shu Anshi up, looked at Shu Qing with extremely sharp eyes, and asked with an angry voice:
"Shu Qing, are you challenging the truth? You even dare to beat the truth's mother!!"

Ning looked at Shu Qing in surprise, and seeing Shu An's distressed appearance holding her waist, she felt a little gloating in her heart, and Shu Yilian's feelings towards Shu Qing also changed in her heart. Fingers can't compare, there is nothing worthy of attention at all, but now I feel that Shu Qing is not so useless, but it is far worse than herself, if she makes a move, she will not stop if she sees no blood of.

But Shu Qing didn't know what Shu Yilian was thinking, she said loudly to Shu Yi:

"Prime Minister Shu, did you make a mistake? Madam Shu pointed at me and scolded me as soon as she came in. Is this Madam Shu's upbringing? No wonder Prime Minister Shu is so bullying. Son, Prime Minister Shu's way of treating guests today, Shu Qing has learned a lot."

"Presumptuous! You actually arranged the truth and hurt the mother of the truth. Do you know that I can send you to the government right now! If you are sensible, hand over the servant girl who committed the crime to the truth and beat him with sticks." Die, or don’t blame me for being rude!!”

Shu Yidong was very angry, Shu Qing seemed to be protected by His Royal Highness, he couldn't do anything about it, but he couldn't deal with this maid who dared to scold his mother.

Shu An refused to give up and scolded:

"No, I still want this little bitch/hoof to die! You bitch, you still want my lily lotus, I will definitely not let you off today, ouch, my waist hurts like hell!"

In her heart, she wanted to kill Shu Qing immediately. She had regarded the lotus as a magic medicine to save her life, but when the doctor said that at least half of the lotus would be used to cure Shu Yidong's disease, she was so distressed that she wanted to bleed. Missing her whole lily lily, it's no wonder she didn't kill Shu Qing! !
Shu Qing was not afraid at all, instead she mocked:

"How do I remember that I didn't even touch the old lady's finger, and someone wanted to hurt me. My servant girl is loyal to the Lord. Not only is she right, but she should be rewarded. Prime Minister Shu and Mrs. Shu deliberately wanted to intimidate me. And me, don’t you want to hand over the Bai Yelian? Then ask Prime Minister Shu to return the money, and I will accompany you at any time whether you are meeting an official or the emperor.”
