The grass in the factory should be plucked

Zhang Wanwan was made the Crown Princess. She got what she wanted and was extremely happy.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said worriedly, "My son will be the mother of the country in the future. He must not act as he pleases like he did before. He must 'walk without showing his feet, pace without moving an inch, smile without showing his teeth, and put his hands on his chest'."

"Ah?" Zhang Wanwan suddenly looked embarrassed.

You have to walk with small steps, your feet cannot be exposed under your skirt, your teeth cannot be shown when you smile, and your hands cannot be raised above your chest... What's the difference between this and not moving at all?

The Crown Prince's wife said, "Do you think being a Crown Princess is so easy? The palace will send a nanny to teach you etiquette and rules soon. You must learn it well."

"Yes, mother."

When Zhang Wanwan thought of her gentle and elegant cousin the prince, she suddenly regained her confidence. What if she had to endure a little injustice for him?

She must be a good wife to him and not let him be distracted by the harem.

Cui Jin only got the position of the Crown Prince's Consort. Although she was very dissatisfied, she also knew that she could not compete with Zhang Wanwan at the moment.

As long as she could get to the prince's side and catch his eye, she believed that with her talent, beauty and means, she would surely make the prince fall in love with her over time.

Seeing her ambitious look, Cui Jue couldn't help but tell her that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a girl he liked!

This woman was not only resourceful, but also extremely beautiful, so the prince was deeply in love with her and trusted her very much.

"Which family is this noble lady from?" Cui Jin frowned slightly.

"She is not a noble lady, but the behind-the-scenes owner of the Longmen Trading Company which has gained fame recently." Cui Jue said.

"She's just a merchant girl." Cui Jin didn't care.

Cui Jue said: "Don't underestimate her. I have dealt with her before. This woman is extremely smart and not an easy person to deal with."

Cui Jin became interested: "In that case, I would like to meet her."

Cui Jin sent someone to pass a message to Longmen Trading Company, wanting to meet with the owner of Longmen Trading Company.

Jiang Li was puzzled: "The legitimate daughter of the Qinghe Cui family? Why do you want to see me?"

She was busy and had no time to play with the noble ladies.

Manager Liu said, "It is the Cui family's legitimate daughter who will soon become the Crown Prince's concubine."

Jiang Li was even more confused. Why would the prince, the future concubine, look for her?

"No." She said, and after thinking for a moment, "Just say I'm going back to Hangzhou Prefecture."

When Cui Jin heard that the boss of Longmen had returned to Hangzhou, he was confused. Was he planning to retreat in order to advance?

Hearing that the prince was about to get married, she was heartbroken and left, hoping that the prince would feel sorry for her? She was really scheming!

If Jiang Li knew her little thoughts, he would definitely be amused and confused.

She was racking her brains over what gift to give to congratulate Nangong Qinghe on his wedding.

However, it is still early for the prince's wedding, and the ceremony of asking for the bride's name and accepting the bride price will take several months, so there is no need to rush.

She is currently busy releasing rats in the four shops of the Jiang Mansion.

After Jiang Li resumed his normal work, he began to go to the residences of officials of all ranks in the capital to eavesdrop and release rats at the same time.

She ordered Fat Rat to take its rat friends and stroll around the four shops in the Jiang Mansion one by one, and make sure to let the customers see their "agile" figures!

There were rats in the Jiang family shop every now and then, which had scared away many customers.

The shopkeeper bought a few cats, but it didn't help.

Jiang Li also cultivated a lot of catnip in her home garden to reward her cat guards.

The cats raised in the Jiang Mansion were tricked away by Jiang Li with a handful of catnip and signed a master-servant contract. Naturally, they obeyed Jiang Li's orders and turned a blind eye to the mice who came to demonstrate in a swaggering manner.

Not only did they not catch them, they also hid obediently to avoid scaring these little "guests".

This scene frightened the shop owners so much that their scalps went numb. Could it be that the Rat Fairy appeared? Otherwise, why would the cat run away when it saw the mouse?

They all went to the chief steward of the Jiang residence to resign, but the chief steward did not dare to make the decision and had to report to Yu.

Yu was in a state of headache: "What a bunch of rubbish!"

Seeing that the shops could no longer operate and the mansion had huge expenses, Yu had no choice but to ask the manager to sell the four shops.

Manager Liu had already received Jiang Li's instructions to spread the news of the rat infestation in the Jiang Mansion's shop.

When everyone heard that the rat was getting more and more ferocious, they dared not take it, for fear of angering the "Rat Fairy".

In the end, only Longmen Trading Company was willing to take over, but they only offered a very low price.

Yu was furious: "No, we must not sell it to Longmen Trading Company!"

At this time, Jiang Feng, the eldest son of the Jiang family, walked into the main courtyard with anger on his face: "Yes, we can't sell it to them. Longmen Trading Company is really going too far!"

He and his good friend made an appointment to have a few drinks, so he asked the servant to book a pleasure boat for the Longmen boat banquet. Unexpectedly, when the other party heard that it was the Jiang Mansion, he told him that it could not be booked!

The servant was dumbfounded and kept asking questions. The shopkeeper raised his eyelids and said, "Don't you know that your wife is targeting our boss? Everyone knows what Sima Zhao is thinking."

He said with a fake smile: "The boss has said that he will not do business with the Jiang and Yu mansions. Please come in!"

Even Longmen Restaurant, Longmen Yaji, Longmen Cloth Shop and other Longmen-affiliated stores all said they would not accept people from Jiang Mansion and Yu Mansion!

I almost wanted to hang a notice on the door saying "No one from the Jiang or Yu Mansion is allowed to enter."

Jiang Feng was mocked by a group of scholars at the entrance of Longmen Yaji, who ridiculed him for his extravagant living, saying that it turned out that he had spent all his money on food and clothing!

He was refused entry to the Longmen Gathering, which was equivalent to being excluded from the literary circle in the capital!

Jiang Feng's face turned purple and he returned home angrily, only to find that his wife Zhao was counting the dowry!

Jiang Feng was so angry that he was like a Buddha coming out of the world and two Buddhas ascending to heaven. He asked sternly, "What are you doing?"

Zhao curled her lips and said, "Although my dowry is not as good as that of Concubine Fang in the mansion, it is also what I need to make a living. How can I not keep a close eye on it?"

"You!" Jiang Feng was so angry that veins on his forehead bulged and he walked away in anger.

When Yu learned that the Longmen boss had said that they would not do business with the Jiang and Yu families, she was so angry that she slammed the table and stood up: "How dare you, a little yellow-haired girl, be so arrogant!"

She decided to teach Longmen Commercial Bank a lesson so that they would know what it meant that the people should not fight against the officials and that a strong dragon should not suppress a local snake!

On this day, Xie Changan had just returned to the government office when Yin Yi came to report: "Boss, Longmen Restaurant has been closed down!"

Xie Changan's eyes shone: "What's the matter?"

Yin Yidao said: "It is said that he ate dead people and was reported to Shuntian Prefecture by the victim."

Xie Changan snorted: "Who is so ignorant of life and death?"

Zhu Mingyuan, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, is hearing a case in court.

The Yu family had produced several Beijing officials among their ancestors, all of whom served in important departments specializing in criminal law, such as the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and Shuntian Prefecture.

Although the Yu family was gradually declining because their descendants were unfilial and no one passed the imperial examinations, the influence of their ancestors was still there, so Shuntian Prefecture still had to give them some face.

Yu was also the principal wife of Jiang Xiuyuan, the Minister of Works. She sent someone to take care of things, so Zhu Mingyuan naturally had to give her face. He immediately slammed the gavel and shouted, "Are you the owner of the Longmen Restaurant?"

Manager Liu knelt down and reported: "My surname is Liu, and I am the manager of Longmen Trading Company. Our boss has returned to Hangzhou Prefecture and is not in the capital at the moment."

Zhu Mingyuan said sternly: "Then send someone to Hangzhou Prefecture to bring the owner of Longmen Trading Company to Beijing for trial. Come!"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a cold voice, saying coldly: "Master Zhu, are you going to arrest someone without knowing right or wrong?"
