"Two taels of silver for one stone." The senior manager blurted out.

"Okay. I'll give you one day to take over the hot springs and farmland immediately."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Manager Chu, go to the pawnbroker and pick out some people you like, and give me the indentures after you've picked them out. After you've bought them, train them well and replace the unruly servants in the shop."

The purpose of driving the person in charge away first is to give these people a warning.

Now Qin has been troubled again, and she has a lot to do now.

She wanted to take this opportunity to replace all the people in this shop with her own.

By the time Qin realized what was happening, all the shops were already in her hands.

If you want to take it back then, it depends on whether Qin has the ability to do so.

Manager Chu said hurriedly: "Yes, Miss."

You know what, although his young lady has never done business, after getting along with her for these days, he feels that she is worthy of being a member of the Wu family.

All matters were ordered in an orderly manner.

"Manager, if you see any honest and useful people in the hot spring villa, you can bring them here if they are willing." Jiang Luo ordered.

"Yes, ma'am."

The servants in the manor rarely have contact with Yongjing. There are always those who are suppressed by Qin's people and cannot make a name for themselves. Such people are also easy to use.

"Go and withdraw the two hundred thousand taels of silver from this account and deposit it in Baotong Bank. After I have finished the things I have told you to do, start buying grain."

This time they both answered in unison, "Yes, Miss."

After giving the order, Jiang Luo stood up and walked out the door.

As soon as he reached the door, he gave another explanation: "When buying grain, keep it quiet and don't drive up the price. If there are people selling grain nearby, you can buy it back and put it in the hot spring manor. I have the money here, so you two don't have to worry."

After saying that, he opened the door and left.

She also had to go to Prince Jing's Mansion with Xie Qing to pay a visit to Princess Jing.

The two managers Gao and Chu bowed and saw her off behind her.

Walking outside the shop, Jiang Luo looked at the rising sun and asked, "When is it?"

"Miss, it's already 9 o'clock." Mingxu replied from the side.

"Let's go."

"Miss, shall we go find Miss Xie?" There was some excitement in Rendong's voice.

Miss Xie has a good personality and is kind to her daughter.

And she also got along very well with Huayi.

Jiang Luo was in a good mood and nodded with a smile.

The two of them helped Jiang Luo onto the carriage and headed towards Mingyuzhai.

Jiang Luo sat in the carriage, bored.

She thought that the Duke's Mansion must be in a mess at this time.

Presumably, Qin was unwilling to kill the "pregnant" Jiang Nian for the sake of her precious daughter.

Jiang Zhou would not be happy if the Yongxing Marquis' Mansion created a rift with the Duke's Mansion because of this.

After all, there weren't many lackeys following him.

There are even fewer people who go to a family as prestigious as the Yongxing Marquis' Mansion.

With his ability, I don't know why his grandfather fell in love with him and married her mother to him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Luo touched the jade pendant on his neck again.

She always felt that this jade pendant was not simple.

That day, after she and her third uncle rescued Princess Jing, she listened to their conversation and knew that Princess Jing and her mother must have a close relationship.

But Princess Jing's attitude that day was cold and distant.

I guess something must have happened later.

However, Princess Jing's attitude when she came to the Duke's Mansion to express her gratitude, and the look in her eyes when she saw the jade pendant, made her suspicious.

Could this jade pendant be related to Princess Jing?

The reason why she decided to go to Prince Jing's Mansion was not only to visit Prince Jing's wife, but also to ask about this matter.

The journey is not far and we will arrive there in a short while.

At the entrance of Mingyuzhai, a carriage had been waiting there.

"Sister Luo, you're here." Xie Qing's cheerful voice came over.

Jiang Luo opened the curtain of the side window and saw Xie Qing getting off the Xie Mansion's carriage and walking towards her.

She waved with a smile on her face: "Sister Qing'er, come up quickly."

"Okay." After Xie Qing said that, she took a few quick steps, lifted her skirt and got on the carriage of the Duke's Mansion.

One night without seeing you feels like three autumns.

The two had endless things to talk about.

This may be what is called fate.

"Sister Luo, my aunt has never invited any young lady to visit Prince Jing's mansion. You are the first one!"

"Why?" Jiang Luo asked.

Logically speaking, Prince Jing is the only prince of a different surname in the Dayong Dynasty.

But he fought for the throne with his own life and military achievements.

Princess Jing is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, the most noble family in Dayong.

Even though Prince Jing has passed away, any of these two people are well-known figures in Yongjing City.

Is it because of Lu Jinan’s reputation?

But in her previous life, she had never heard people in Jingjing City talk about Princess Jing.

All I know is that there is a Princess Jing, that's all.

"Alas... ever since uncle Prince Jing passed away, my aunt has been depressed and no longer willing to socialize or meet people." Xie Qing sighed with some melancholy.

Looking at the wilted Xie Qing, Jiang Luo comforted her, "The dead are gone. Sister Qing'er, go to the palace more often in the future, maybe Princess Jing will be happier."

Xie Qing shook her head: "No."

Jiang Luo frowned: "Why is this?"

Xie Qing looked at her, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Finally, he couldn't help but said, "My uncle Prince Jing passed away, and cousin Xie became a Jinyiwei again. My aunt was very angry, so..."

It turned out to be the case.

The Jinyiwei were notorious and killed people without warning.

His reputation in the Great Yong Dynasty was indeed too appalling.

Is Princess Jing angry with Xie Jinan?

She didn't think that was necessarily the case.

Prince Jing's reputation was so great that he defeated the Northern Rong army.

Finally, he was forced to negotiate with Dayong.

The stability over the past decade is all thanks to Prince Jing.

But before he could enjoy his achievements for a few years, he was attacked by an assassin and died on the way back to the city.

This is something that everyone in the Dayong Dynasty knows.

Otherwise, how could Lu Jinan in his previous life have chosen to take over most of the government affairs while Emperor Zhaoding was bedridden, even at the cost of bearing the infamy?

Compete with Lord Ling and Queen Ling.

Presumably, Prince Jing’s death was not simple!

Prince Jing had only one son, Lu Jinan, but he did not inherit his father's legacy and serve the court, but instead became a Jinyiwei.

When you think about it this way, it’s not surprising.

Perhaps, this was the drama performed by the mother and son?

"Although Lord Lu is a member of the Imperial Guard, he is not the vicious and evil person they say. Those people are just following the crowd." Jiang Luo comforted him.

Upon hearing this, Xie Qing immediately looked at Jiang Luo in surprise.

"Sister Luo, what you said... is exactly the same as what my father said."

Mr. Xie, the chief academic officer of the Imperial College?

Jiang Luo pointed at himself: "Really?"

Xie Qing nodded quickly: "Yes. That's what my father said at the beginning."

"Haha... maybe it's a coincidence." Jiang Luo laughed awkwardly twice.

That's the chief academic officer of the Imperial College.

After an incense stick of time, the carriage slowly stopped.

"Miss, we've arrived at Prince Jing's mansion." Mingxu's voice came from outside the carriage.

Jiang Luo and Xie Qing looked at each other, then held hands and got off the carriage together.

When she stood still, she saw that the mansion in front of her was majestic and solemn, not as elegant as ordinary mansions.

The stone lions at the entrance and the brown gate inlaid with gold rings have the solemn and murderous atmosphere of a military general.

The servant at the door recognized Xie Qing at a glance and smiled and bowed: "Cousin, you are here!"
