The grass in the factory should be plucked

The news that a female marquis had appeared in the Great Chu State caused a huge uproar, and the entire capital city was in an uproar.

The matter was being hotly discussed on the streets, in restaurants and teahouses.

"Have you heard? That Princess Fuhui has become Marquis Jing'an!"

"Is this true? Can a woman become a marquis?"

"She has the merit of following the emperor. When the current emperor was still the third prince, the princess followed him!"

"I heard that she had made great contributions. If she were a man, she would have been appointed as a prime minister!"

"Since she and His Majesty have known each other since childhood, why doesn't His Majesty take her into the harem? Even if she can't be the queen, she can still be a concubine, right?"

"Don't you know? She was the concubine of the previous emperor and the concubine mother of the new emperor! How can His Majesty take a concubine mother as his concubine?"

"That's right, no wonder the late emperor granted her marriage to the commander of the Imperial Guard."

"A young widow and a eunuch are quite a good match, hahahaha..."

"Oh, who wouldn't want to marry such a beautiful, wealthy and powerful young widow?"

Many noble ladies and rich girls from wealthy families regarded him as their idol: "Marquis Jing'an is truly a role model for women in the Great Chu!"

Many people also sneered: "A hen at dawn is a disaster!"

When Jiang Li received the imperial edict, he was stunned at first, but then he smiled happily. Nangong Qinghe was really considerate. He actually fulfilled a joke he made that day!

"As the first female marquis of the Great Chu Dynasty, I will also be recorded in history!" Jiang Li wanted to laugh out loud.

Aunt Lian was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses. She rushed to Fang Yi's spirit tablet, crying and laughing, and knelt down: "Miss, our little slave Li is amazing..."

Manager Liu was so happy that he shed tears. When Fang Yi entrusted her with a large sum of money, he just wanted to take good care of the money and hand it over to the girl in the future.

I didn't expect the girl to be so outstanding!

He also rose with the tide, from a small manager in a merchant's home to the chief manager of Longmen Trading Company, and then became the chief manager of the princess, and now he is the confidant of the marquis!

When he left the Fang family, Fang Yi had returned the indenture to him, and he got married and had children as a legitimate citizen.

But merchants are not allowed to participate in the scientific examinations.

Now that the girl has become a high-ranking and powerful marquis, his children and grandchildren will also have the opportunity to change the family fortune!

He admired himself immensely and his unwavering determination to follow the girl was truly the wisest thing he had ever done in his life!

Manager Liu ordered his men: "Quick, go to Longmen Tiangong to order a plaque!"

The plaque on the gate needs to be changed again!

Jiang Li's house only has three courtyards. Now that it has become a marquis's mansion, it is natural to expand it.

The court paid for the expropriation of all the houses adjacent to the Princess's Mansion, except for the Xie Mansion, and connected them with the Princess's Mansion to expand it into the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion.

Manager Liu is in a dilemma. The Xie Mansion next door is under construction, and now the Princess' Mansion is also about to start construction. Where should these two masters live?

Jiang Li smiled and said, "We can just go back to the house next to the East Factory and stay there temporarily."

Xie Changan smiled and said, "Very good, it's close to the imperial city, so you don't have to get up so early to attend court."

Jiang Li was shocked: "What did you say? Go to court? I still have to go to court?!"

Xie Changan pursed his lips and smiled: "Marquis Jing'an will naturally go to court."

Jiang Li's eyes went dark: "I don't want to be a marquis anymore!"

Shen Muchun gloated: "Fortunately, I am only a fifth-rank official, so I don't have to get up early to attend court, hahahaha..."

Mo Qillang insisted that Jiang Li treat them to a Longmen puffer fish banquet.

Jiang Li said: "During the period of national mourning, banquets are prohibited! Brother Mo Qi, you just put on this fifth-rank official's robe, be careful of being impeached by the censors, you must take it off tomorrow!"

Mo Qilang made a bitter face: "When can we eat?"

Puffer fish, the Longmen Puffer Fish Banquet that he had been dreaming of, if he wanted to make a reservation, who knows when he would have to wait?

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Don't tell anyone. I'll ask the chef to come to our house quietly and cook it tomorrow."

Mo Qilang was very happy: "Little Sixteen, that's really nice! I'll also take care of your mansion, and I promise to build it to your satisfaction!"

At the Jiang residence, everyone was stunned.

After being shocked, the old lady stood up in ecstasy: "Quick, hurry up and set off the firecrackers. Our Jiang family has actually produced a marquis. This is really a great honor!"

Jiang Feng hurriedly stopped her: "Grandma, now is the national mourning period!"

Isn't it seeking death to set off firecrackers in public?

The old lady said embarrassedly: "Grandmother was so happy that she forgot about this. By the way, do you want to change the plaque in our mansion? Jing'an Marquis Mansion is so magnificent!"

Jiang Xiuyuan said weakly, "Mother, are you confused? The one who was conferred the title of nobility was not your son, but your granddaughter! After she left the palace, she established a female household. This title has nothing to do with the Jiang family!"

The old lady glared at him and said, "How can it be okay? You are her biological father and I am her biological grandmother! Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected."

Jiang Feng was about to say something when Madam Zhao pulled him aside and whispered in his ear, "Your sister won't have a child."

Jiang Feng was stunned. What does that mean?

He thought about it for a moment and then reacted immediately.

Yes, the man A'li is going to marry again, although he is the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and a second-rank General Dingguo, he is in a high position and has great power, but he is a "eunuch"!

A'li and he will not have children, and the future prince of Jing'an will definitely be adopted from blood relatives!

He looked surprised and glanced at Zhao, then stopped talking and secretly planned in his mind how to get along well with his sister.

Jiang Song, Jiang Huai, and their wives Zhou and Song had the same idea.

Several people had their own ulterior motives and were making their own calculations in their hearts.

Only Yu had a pale face and sat there blankly.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, almost scaring her to death.

No, it wasn't real, she must be dreaming!

How could that little bitch suddenly transform herself into Princess Fuhui and now Marquis Jing'an!

Isn't that the boss of Longmen Jiang? How could she be the little bitch who was banished to the cold palace?

She couldn't help but shudder when she thought about what she had done to her and Fang Yi.

"Yu."

The old lady suddenly called her, her voice was extremely cold.

Yu looked at the old lady in a daze, and only heard her order word by word: "Go to the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion tomorrow and apologize to my precious granddaughter. Be sure to ask for her forgiveness."

Yu thought there was something wrong with her ears: "What does mother want her daughter-in-law to do?"

"Go and apologize to Ah Li!" The old lady snorted coldly, "Have you forgotten what you did to her?"

"Why didn't Ahri go home after leaving the palace? It's all because of you!"

The old lady became more and more angry as she spoke. If it weren't for Yu's jealousy and Fang was still alive, would A'li have abandoned her mother?

"If you can't get Ah Li's forgiveness, go back to your mother's house!"

"Mother!"

Yu was so angry that her teeth were about to break. No wonder the old hag was in a hurry to promote Fang to be her concubine and record the little bitch as her legitimate daughter.

It turns out that they already knew it, but they kept it from her alone!

This is clearly an attempt to push her out as a scapegoat!

"Master, do you think so too?"

Yu looked at Jiang Xiuyuan dimly.

Jiang Xiuyuan avoided her gaze and whispered, "If you hadn't sent her to the countryside when she was just born, how could Ah Li resent us?"

Jiang Feng looked incredulous: "Mother, how could you treat my little sister like this? Ah Li is too pitiful!"

"well!"

Yu laughed loudly, "So my whole family eats Fang's flesh and drinks Fang's blood, but I am the only one who has to take the blame!"

She laughed wildly and staggered out.
