Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled
Chapter 175 Old Madam Ye is dumbfounded
Ye Jintang was a smart man and quickly figured out the twists and turns between General Yu and Xiao Mo.
However, she was not as optimistic as Xiao Mo. General Yu's status was there. If he dared to have too close contact with Xiao Mo, although Emperor Jing was stupid, he was not foolish.
If Xiao Mo dared to touch the army that protected his life, he could find any excuse to kill her immediately.
"Your Highness, do you think General Yu would risk coming to the Qin Palace again just for a pot of braised beef?"
What Ye Jintang said was very interesting. She used the word "adventure". In the eyes of many court officials, the Prince Qin's Mansion was not a good place.
Seeing Ye Jintang's worried look, Xiao Mo couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"General Yu may not dare, but I believe Madam Qi is still very willing to go out with Jintang."
After being reminded by Xiao Mo, Ye Jintang finally realized that Madam Qi and General Yu were a family.
Madam Qi was well-known for her love of gourmet food, so there was nothing wrong with her often going to the Prince of Qin's Mansion for gourmet food. There was also nothing wrong with General Yu coming to pick Madam Qi up occasionally.
In this way, Xiao Mo could gradually establish contacts with General Yu.
Thinking of this, Ye Jintang couldn't help but give Xiao Mo a thumbs up.
His calculation was really good. If she hadn't taken the initiative to propose to hold the riverside banquet, I would have thought that she had been plotted against by him from the very beginning.
Xiao Mo has more than 800 ideas in mind, he might have 8000 ideas. From the moment he knew that she was going to hold the Linjiang Banquet, he took all the subsequent matters into consideration.
"Besides General Yu, has the prince contacted other court officials?"
"Of course, I would not easily miss such a good opportunity. Not only did I contact many officials who I had never contacted before, I also specifically told them about the hidden disease in my legs, which I am afraid will never be cured."
"Why do you say that, Your Highness? Didn't Doctor Yin say that as long as Your Highness takes the medicine on time and actively receives treatment, Your Highness will be able to walk like a normal person in two to three years at the latest?"
"I am talking about both truth and lies. If not for Imperial Noble Consort Dehui's temper, she would definitely not want to see me have a good life."
"As long as I can't stand up, I will have no chance of becoming emperor. Even if I interact more with other court officials, it will not threaten Xiao Yi. Only in this way will Imperial Noble Consort Dehui not kill me immediately."
Xiao Mo didn't say that apart from the fact that he had a leg disease and couldn't stand up, the fact that Ye Jintang had never been pregnant was also a good deception.
Only as long as he could not have his own children could Imperial Noble Consort Dehui feel completely at ease with him.
Ye Jintang didn't expect that a riverside banquet would bring so many benefits to Xiao Mo.
Or it could be said that a riverside banquet directly disrupted the capital, forcing some people to get to know Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang again.
The two chatted until late that night, and Xiao Mo told Ye Jintang a lot about officialdom.
Ye Jintang listened with great interest. She used to be in the business circle, where there were also many intrigues.
But compared with the methods used by officials in the capital, they are not worth mentioning.
The struggles between powerful court officials were not about money but life. If one was not careful, the entire family would be executed.
It was late at night, but Xiao Mo was still quite excited. He used to feel that he had always lived in darkness, and no matter how he struggled, he could not see hope.
The appearance of Ye Jintang was like a ray of light, giving him hope to break out of the darkness.
Even though everything he was facing now told him that he could not compete with Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, he still wanted to try, not for himself, but for Ye Jintang.
He wanted to live and spend the rest of his life with Ye Jintang.
"Your Majesty, I'm so sleepy. Can we talk about it tomorrow?"
After a tiring day, Ye Jintang yawned and started to chase people away.
"Okay, I'll come see you tomorrow."
Xiao Mo felt that he still had a lot to say to Ye Jintang, and he couldn't finish even if he talked for a whole day and night.
Ye Jintang became famous in the capital because of the Linjiang Banquet. Since no one from the Danyang Marquis' Mansion attended the banquet, they only heard about her fame in the evening.
"Big Boss's wife, have you found out clearly? Did the Sixth Girl really pay for the Riverside Banquet out of her own pocket?"
Old Madam Ye looked at Madam Gan in disbelief.
"Mother, this is the news that Yanran sent over. It must be correct. The Prince of Qi said that before the sixth girl married into the Prince of Qin's Palace, the Prince of Qin's Palace only had 2 taels of silver on its books, and there was nothing worth taking out in the storehouse."
Madam Gan repeated what Madam Yao had said to Old Madam Ye.
"Sixth girl deceived me so badly."
A feeling of anger was stuck in Madam Ye's chest, almost making her die of anger.
"Who said she wasn't? The sixth girl looks so weak, but who would have thought that she is such a vicious old fox? I'm afraid that all the wealth Ye Li saved as a prefect must have been secretly hidden by her."
"She is just a little girl with only a few maids and servants. How did she hide so much property?"
Old Madam Ye has been the housekeeper for many years and knows the family property in the rear quarters very well.
It is impossible for them to hide so much property.
"Mom, don't forget that Ye Jintang's maternal grandfather, the Wen family, is a famous merchant in Yuezhou City. If the Wen family helps, no matter how much property there is, it can be hidden."
After hearing what Mrs. Gan said, Mrs. Ye's face instantly turned ugly. How could she forget about the Wen family?
"Okay, very good. Send a letter to Sixth Girl tomorrow and tell her that I'm sick and want to see her."
"Mom, you?"
"We in the Danyang Marquis' Mansion can no longer make ends meet, so naturally we have to ask the sixth girl to borrow some money to spend."
"My mother is smart. I was so angry that I didn't think about it."
Madam Gan was extremely happy. Ever since the Marquis' Mansion was robbed, her life had been in chaos. Several sisters-in-law who used to have a good relationship with her were now quarreling with each other. She had no idea how many times they had quarreled.
If we can get some money from Ye Jintang, it will at least help solve the urgent problem of the Marquis' Mansion.
"I have plenty of ways to deal with the sixth girl. I want her to spit out all the silver she hid."
Old Madam Ye smiled confidently. What kind of trouble could a dead girl cause? It was just a banquet by the river. What was there to be proud of?
The old lady didn't like Ye Jintang from the bottom of her heart, and she was bound to suffer. Ye Jintang, who had become the Princess of Qin, was no longer the little girl who had just entered the Marquis' Mansion.
Ye Jintang was tired after a long day and slept until noon.
She had just gotten up and washed up when the first message she received was that Old Madam Ye asked her to return to the Danyang Marquis Mansion.
"The old lady really thinks I am a piece of cake. She thinks I am the helpless little girl she used to be, and that I can be ordered around by her?"
"Madam Liu, send someone to deliver a message, saying that I have a lot of things to do here and cannot return for a while, and ask the old lady to take care of herself. I will go back to see her another day when I am free."
"Yes, I will reply right away."
