Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

The note was not big. In addition to Mr. Xiang's signature, there were only a few short sentences on it: "What happened just now was planned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Don't investigate. I will let you know later. The other Vietnamese brothers and sisters are in Chengjiang, be careful!"

After quickly reading the words on the note, Li Yu crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into his purse calmly.

There are too many people in Chengjiang, so we can’t just throw this thing away. It would be bad if someone saw it, so we might as well take it home and burn it when the time comes.

As for Emperor Tianyuan, because of what happened with the two old men just now, he changed his original plan to return to the palace and decided to stroll around for another hour.

This, in turn, made those officials with bad conduct and their families who were mixed in the crowd very anxious.

They were afraid that the people they had oppressed would become like the two old men and directly stop Emperor Tianyuan from seeking justice.

They were trembling with fear, and some even forgot to let their daughters get closer to Emperor Tianyuan.

For a time, a very strange phenomenon appeared in Chengjiang: many ordinary-dressed people were in high spirits, while nobles in gorgeous clothes were anxious.

There was a head of the Ministry of Revenue who was over 40 years old and couldn't stand it anymore. He hid in a remote place and complained.

"Why is the emperor in such high spirits today? If he doesn't leave, I'm going to faint."

His colleague looked at him and suggested, "Why don't we go home now?"

The head of the Ministry of Revenue rolled his eyes at his colleague and said, "How can we go back now? We have to be in Chengjiang. If someone sues us, we can at least go up and defend ourselves. Otherwise, what the suer says will be the final word, right?"

My colleague suddenly realized what was going on and for a moment he gave up the idea of ​​going home.

"Hurry up and follow the emperor. We will go back when everything is clear."

*

As an emperor, Emperor Tianyuan was keenly aware of those different gazes.

He snorted coldly and said, "I seem to have been too lenient over the years, causing some people to have thoughts that they shouldn't have. They say one thing to my face and another behind my back."

The eunuch who was half a step behind him heard this and lowered his head and laughed awkwardly, "How could that be possible? Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. All the gentlemen are very loyal."

Behind Emperor Tianyuan, Shangshu Huang, who was hiding himself in a humble manner, heard the conversation between the two and felt a pang in his heart again.

Is the emperor trying to warn him?

He was trying to figure out what Emperor Tianyuan meant when he saw him suddenly turn around and look at him: "Huang Qingjia, didn't I tell you to go home and reflect on yourself? Why are you still here?"

Huang Shangshu immediately smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty, there are many people in Chengjiang, and I am afraid that someone will harm you. I want to wait until you return to the palace before leaving."

He is a man who knows how to say nice things, Emperor Tianyuan thought to himself, with no change in his facial expression.

This Huang guy was pretty good when he first entered the court, but he has become more and more unreliable in recent years. The Jinlai Casino must be opened by him, and the two old men are probably not lying.

But the two old men today must be related to the prince in the court. Is it the crown prince? Or the fourth prince?

Thinking of this, Emperor Tianyuan's eyes flickered slightly.

*

Minister Huang saw that Emperor Tianyuan's expression was not too bad, so he continued to follow carefully.

After walking a little further, he thought he was ready, so he straightened his bent body slightly and glanced around.

After being rejected by Huang Qingqing, he chose a girl named Jiaojiao from the tribe. Jiaojiao should appear now.

Minister Huang was looking for Jiaojiao, waiting for her to be noticed by Emperor Tianyuan and then enter the palace to make contributions to him and the Huang family, but he couldn't see anyone after looking around for a few times.

Minister Huang was not giving up. He winked at the servant of the Huang family standing in the crowd, but the servant just shook his head at him in panic.

Huang Shangshu: "......"

*

Just when Minister Huang thought that Huang Jiaojiao had stood him up, he saw Huang Jiaojiao at the next intersection.

But everything was different from what he had planned.

In his arrangement, Huang Jiaojiao would wear a white dress and have a simple bun, like a fairy.

But in reality, Huang Jiaojiao was wearing a simple blue dress and a veil.

This outfit is just barely acceptable and usable, Minister Huang complained in his heart. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up Huang Jiaojiao's veil, revealing a face with a rash underneath the veil.

Huang Shangshu: "......"

A rage suddenly burned in his chest, and Minister Huang almost wanted to push Huang Jiaojiao into the water and drown her.

The next moment, something even more infuriating happened.

A man took the initiative to talk to Huang Jiaojiao. Huang Jiaojiao did not refuse, but started chatting with the man. From a distance, the two looked like a perfect match.

At this point, Minister Huang no longer dared to let Huang Jiaojiao get close to Emperor Tianyuan.

On the contrary, Emperor Tianyuan smiled kindly when he saw Huang Jiaojiao and the man.

*

Emperor Tianyuan strolled around until the end of the hour of Wei (before 3 p.m.) before leaving.

Only after they were sure that he had really left did the officials in Chengjiang feel relieved. They patted their chests and went home to rest without saying a word.

Apart from anything else, they are more tired today than when they went to court, so they have to go back and recuperate.

On the other side, Li Yu, Han Xiaomei and Si'er also walked around until the end of the day and left.

The Orange River is too big, so they didn’t finish exploring it today. They will wait until tomorrow to see the rest.

The three of them returned home and had just sat down and had not yet had a sip of tea when Mr. Bai, the boss next door, threw a package into the yard.

Li Yu heard the noise, went over to collect the things, threw away the stones in the package, and then took out the letters from the package.

*

The letter was written by Mr. Xiang, telling her the whole story of what happened between the two old men today.

Although the two old men were hired by the prince, their experiences were true and they did not lie.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to find them, settle their families in a safe place, and give them a chance to survive. They are so grateful that they put on such a scene in front of His Majesty today."

Mr. Xiang gave a general idea in the letter, but at the end he changed the subject, "The Crown Prince read the plan written by Madam Li to deal with Minister Huang a few days ago. He said that you are a smart person, and the plan is feasible. If it is done well, it can deal a heavy blow to King Hui.

But Huang Shangshu has a special status, and he has the support of King Hui, and the emperor's attitude towards Huang Shangshu is unclear, so he was allowed to come this time, which can be regarded as his gratitude to you."

After reading it, Li Yu put the paper on the candle and lit it.

The prince's move was indeed a good one. When she was writing the plan, she didn't expect the snack party and didn't think of this method.

Although the plan he spent time writing was not used, Li Yu did not feel angry.

Anyway, the result is good, so there is no need for her to worry about the process.

However, this attack had limited effect on Shangshu Huang. She had to do something else and make sure Shangshu Huang could not live a peaceful life.

Sitting at the table, Li Yu began to make new plans.

As she wrote, she thought of Han Zheng.

It has been ten days. He and Minister Pei should have arrived at the capital of Donghai Prefecture.

*

Han Zheng sneezed.

Minister Pei, who was walking in front, stopped and asked, "Is Lord Han feeling unwell?"

Han Zheng shook his head, "No, it was just blown by the wind. Lord Pei, we should go to the Donghai Prefecture today."
