The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 408
"Third Brother, please tell me." Xiao Mingyu smiled.

Xiao Mingzhen thought about it for a while, and said: "The thing is like this, there is still 3 taels of money that my mother left in Cheng'an Gambling House. Now Sun Cheng'an sees that our Xiao family is in decline, so he wants to take money from Mo Xiao's family. Our people went there several times, but they refused to give any money. Sister Mingyu, can you please ask the Wangfu to come forward to help our Xiao family get back the 3 taels." After speaking, he laughed at himself, "Speaking of which, the Wangfu is helping us. Help yourself. It is estimated that more than half of the 40 taels handed over to the government will fall into the pocket of the palace."

Xiao Mingyu frowned slightly, but did not answer immediately.

Xiao Mingzhen asked worriedly: "Sister Mingyu, is there any difficulty in this matter?"

Xiao Mingyu nodded and said, "There are indeed some difficulties. Third brother, I will write to Princess Qinghe right away. I can't guarantee when the news will come from Princess Qinghe. In case the time to save the old man is delayed, Then... third brother, please forgive me."

"Don't worry, I understand. By the way, yesterday you said that you sold the property to other people, but you haven't said who to sell it to." Xiao Mingzhen asked.

Xiao Mingyu said: "It's actually the palace. I can't guarantee whether the palace will accept our conditions."

Xiao Mingzhen thought for a while and said, "If the palace can agree, the matter will be much simpler. Sister Mingyu, you should write a letter now, and you must hurry up on this matter."

"Don't worry, I'll hurry up."

Xiao Mingyu went back to his room and took up a pen to write a letter.This letter is for Princess Qinghe, but Xiao Mingyu prefers to see Princess Fan or the eldest son Zhou Qi.So Xiao Mingyu wrote it very carefully, and must impress the people in the palace.Call Han Ba ​​and hand the letter to Han Ba, "Go to the mansion now, and deliver this letter to Princess Qinghe in person. Also, can you go to the yamen to see the current situation of the old man?"

Han Ba ​​said: "Miss, don't worry, this letter will be delivered as soon as possible. As for the prison, that place is different from ordinary houses. Half of it is built underground. It takes a little effort to get in. My subordinate It cannot be guaranteed that you can enter the prison to visit the old man without alarming people."

Xiao Mingyu expressed understanding, "Your safety is the most important thing. If you can't do it, don't force it. I don't think the government will let the old man go. They still count on the old man to make a fortune. If the old man dies in prison, by then , the Xiao family will save trouble."

"What the girl said is true. Then this subordinate will go to work."

Xiao Mingyu can only wait now, waiting for news from Han Ba, waiting for news from the palace.

In the afternoon, Han Ba ​​finally came back.Xiao Mingyu asked eagerly, "Is there any news?"

Han Ba ​​nodded, "Return to the girl, His Royal Highness, please go out and meet the girl."

"Where do we meet?" Xiao Mingyu asked.Unexpectedly, it was the crown prince Zhou Qi who came forward.Xiao Mingyu was a little disappointed not to be able to see Princess Fan.But being able to meet and talk to the crown prince Zhou Qi is also a good sign.

"His Highness said it was at Shili Pavilion. He will wait for the girl there in an hour."

Xiao Mingyu nodded, and called Man Chun, "Help me dress up. Send someone to invite the third young master. Today I will go out with the third young master."

Xiao Mingyu dressed herself up as quickly as possible, looking very refreshing.Xiao Mingzhen was waiting at the second gate, and Xiao Mingyu was in a hurry, so he hurried to the second gate.As a result, Han Shi and Xiao Mingyu both got the news and came to the second gate to intercept Xiao Mingyu.

Han's face was full of displeasure, "Ming Yu, don't you want your body anymore? There was an accident a few days ago, and you're going out again. Are you trying to make mother worry to death?"

"Mother, I have to go out this time. His Royal Highness wants to see me. I will go with my third brother. There will be guards by my side. His Royal Highness will also have someone beside me. Nothing will happen." Xiao Mingyu said eagerly.

Xiao Mingzhen also said: "Yes, don't worry, fifth aunt, I will definitely take good care of sister Mingyu."

"You guys, you guys are really pissing me off. Why do you have to be a girl to come forward about the Xiao family's affairs? Don't you have any men in the Xiao family?" Han said without choice, angrily.

Xiao Mingyu smiled awkwardly, "Mother, time waits for no one. His Royal Highness only gave me an hour, and I have already wasted a lot of time. If I don't leave, I won't be able to make it to Shiliting. Mother, don't worry, I won't Something will happen. This time will definitely be the last time. I will not go out again until my body is fully recovered."

Xiao Mingyu made repeated guarantees, and Han finally released him reluctantly.

Xiao Mingxuan took Xiao Mingyu's hand, "Mingyu, take care of yourself and be careful. It's okay if things don't work out, don't force yourself."

"Okay, I will be careful. The family relies on the fourth sister."

"Don't worry. I'll take care of the family."

Xiao Mingyu got into the carriage and left the Xiao family.As the carriage swayed forward, Xiao Mingyu's expression twisted.Every time the carriage shakes too much, it will encounter trauma on the body.Every time is a process of enduring pain.

Xiao Mingzhen rode a horse and walked side by side with the carriage.Knowing Xiao Mingyu's situation, Xiao Mingzhen said apologetically: "Sister Mingyu, I'm in a hurry, and there is no way to slow down. Just bear with it, and it will be fine when you get to the place."

Xiao Mingyu hissed in pain, and said, "Third Brother, don't worry about me, it's just a little pain, I can bear it."

Xiao Mingzhen said with emotion: "Sister Mingyu, in terms of your ability, many men can't match it."

Xiao Mingyu chuckled, and said complacently, "I still have times when I can be more capable, but third brother doesn't know it."

Mo Si waited by Xiao Mingyu's side, "Girl, it's better not to laugh. When you're recovering from your wounds, smiling can easily hurt your wounds."

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "You're right, I won't laugh anymore."

Mo Si said again: "Girl, the letter is already on the way. The prince will soon know what happened in Zhongzhou. The prince will definitely help the girl by then."

"Help me or help the Xiao family?" Xiao Mingyu laughed at himself, "With the current situation of the Xiao family, His Highness is far from being able to quench his thirst. Moreover, Zhongzhou is a fiefdom of the Qin Palace, and the court has no control over it. Besides, according to me As far as we know, His Highness has no specific errands after returning to the capital. A prince who has no errands, even if he is crowned king, what can he do."

Xiao Mingyu despises Zhou Qian, who is so majestic in Zhongzhou, and after returning to the capital, he has to keep his tail between his tails and be careful in front of the emperor.Zhou Qian had been back in the capital for such a long time and hadn't gotten an errand yet. Apparently the emperor wanted to leave Zhou Gan alone and beat him up.I don't know what taboo thing Zhou Gan did to make the emperor treat him like this.

Mo Si said: "Miss, you can't say that. With His Highness in the court, I can help a little bit."
