The prince wanted to die, and the doctor raised her hand and slapped him

The man beside the woman's legs trembled, "Yes, yes, the guards beside her are strong and powerful, they can kill me with one punch!"

They had been dazzled by the wealth and splendor described by Dong Que.

Suddenly, he saw everyone nodding and bowing in front of Su Yinyue, and he became scared.

Dong Que said coldly: "Backing off? Then go home and I will replace you."

"It's just that we didn't complete what we agreed on. I won't give you the money. You have to figure out how to pay your gambling debt yourself."

After saying that, Dongque turned and left.

one two Three……

Dongque turned her back to the couple and left, counting silently in her heart. If the couple didn't call her after she counted to ten,

She will silence them.

Five, six...

"Wait! Sister, I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Dong Que's arms were grabbed on the left and right.

The man's face was sallow and he looked crazy. "Sister, I was just joking! How much does it cost to be the princess's father? Why wouldn't I want to?"

The woman's eyes were dark and she was skinny. "Yes, sister, we are willing. We are all willing."

Dong Que's expression slowed down, and he took out some silver from his waist. "Here is five taels of silver. When you become the princess' parents, you will have plenty of silver!"

The man greedily took the silver, bit it with the tip of his teeth, looked at the bite marks and smiled with his yellow teeth.

After bidding farewell to the couple, Dong Que returned to the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

He avoided the servants passing by and entered Yechunyuan.

When faced with servants who occasionally came to visit, Dong Que would smile and nod when they called her "Aunt Yan Xi".

Yansi was waiting for her in the courtyard.

"Come in, let's talk inside!"

Enter the room and close the door carefully.

After returning to the room safely, Dong Que breathed a sigh of relief and tore off the human skin mask belonging to Yan Xi on his face.

Yan Si asked anxiously: "How?"

Dong Que put away the human skin mask and said, "I have arranged everything. The man's name is Cao Jiang. He is a gambler and owes a lot of money to the gambling house. He agreed immediately after I gave him the money."

"The woman's name is Ji Sanniang. She washes clothes for a living. After marriage, she has been supporting Cao Jiang. She is very infatuated with him and obeys his every word."

"Today I took them to identify the parents, and they had no objection to them pretending to be Su Yinyue's parents."

Yan Si gritted her teeth and said, "When that little bitch Su Yinyue loses her status as the daughter of the Marquis's Mansion and the Princess of Prince Yu, I will deal with her properly!"

Dong Que reminded, "Although I used Yan Xi's face and Liu Wan will cover me after the incident, you'd better not show your face."

“You’ve never found a good way in front of Su Yinyue.”

When it comes to this, Yansi's anger starts to flare up.

"How could I fall into the same pit three times?"

Yan Si was about to tear the handkerchief in her hand. "Didn't she open a cloth factory? I went to see it and it was empty. When she starts to run the factory, that will be my chance!"

"I'll stay hidden this time and watch that little bitch hit rock bottom!"

-

Royal Palace.

Yuxiang walked up to Su Yinyue with the marked report card.

"Princess, these are the test results. Thirty-two people failed."

Seeing Su Yinyue randomly checking the test papers, Yu Xiang hesitated, "Princess, are all these thirty-two people going to be dismissed?"

Su Yinyue added up the total score on the white paper. "Those who fail will be dismissed. Didn't I publicly say so a month ago?"

Yu Xiang was in a dilemma. "If we dismiss so many people at once, and they start making trouble..."

Su Yinyue put down her pen and said indifferently, "Why, they are unhappy, are all the servants in the palace unhappy?"

"Can you sell me, a concubine?"

Among the thirty-two people who failed, there was Yuxiang’s friend.

She wanted to plead for mercy out of selfishness, but when she saw Su Yinyue's face turned cold, she dared not say anything.

"No, no, it was me who spoke too much."

Su Yinyue put the test paper into the cabinet. "It won't be long before my cloth factory will be hiring people, regardless of gender. If you are confident that you can pass, you can go and try."

Yuxiang was overjoyed, "Yes, yes!"

Su Yinyue called someone over and distributed the printed version of the code of conduct.

After doing all this, seeing that it was still early, she called a few guards, left the palace, and headed straight for the cloth factory.

In addition to cotton, the raw materials of the cloth factory also include dyes.

In ancient times, many dyes were extracted from minerals and were expensive.

If Su Yinyue's cloth factory wants to go the affordable route, it cannot use ore or grass juice for dyeing.

She was going to see how the dye was prepared.

The avenues in the capital are straight and wide.

There are much fewer hawking sounds on both sides of the road today.

Because half of the road was occupied by an endless team.

The team was full of ragged, sunken-cheeked men, young and old, with a wide age range.

The same numbness was on his face.

His eyes were dull and he walked unsteadily.

Some people have no shoes, their calves are swollen and red with pus, but they still walk.

Like a walking corpse.

Su Yinyue retreated to the side of the road and asked, "What are they doing?"

Konoe replied, "They are the corvées the emperor summoned from all over the country to build the Treasure Garden."

"The Wonder Garden?"

"The place where the Queen's birthday banquet was held."

Su Yinyue was silent for a moment and looked back at the end of the street.

At the end of the street, corvées kept coming out, with no sign of ending.

Su Yinyue felt a little upset. "How many people are there in total?"

"Three hundred thousand."

Su Yinyue said with a sneer on her face, "I remember that corvée labor doesn't pay, right?"

Konoe nodded, "Yes, they will also need to provide their own food."

It's worse than working at a loss.

Maybe, she needs to do more during her trip to ancient times.

Su Yinyue stared at it for a long time and said, "Let's take another route."

She changed the route, exhaled, identified the direction, and walked away.

"Princess Yu, please stay!"

Looking back, she saw a heroic woman walking out of the alley she had just passed.

"Are you calling me?"

Seeing that she had never seen the person before, Su Yinyue immediately thought of the young lady from the general's mansion mentioned by Concubine Zhao.

"Princess Yu, look."

The woman took off the wooden box from her back with a proud look on her face.

When you open it, there is a white petal the size of a grapefruit leaf inside.

sell?

Su Yinyue said politely: "I don't want to buy it, thank you."

The woman was stunned.

The guard recognized the petals and breathed rapidly, "Kunlun Snow Lotus!"

"Princess, it's the Kunlun Snow Lotus that can cure all kinds of poisons!"

Su Yinyue realized belatedly why the woman looked so strange after she said she didn't want to buy it.

As long as I don’t know the value of something, you can’t show off to me.

Konoe's eyes were burning, "Girl, how much do you want to pay?"

The woman put away the wooden box, clasped her fists and said, "My name is Chu Yingxiu. I don't want a penny for this petal of Kunlun Snow Lotus. I just want to make friends with Princess Yu."

The free ones are the most expensive.

It's obvious that Chu Yingxiu knows martial arts.

Su Yinyue retreated behind the guards and said vigilantly: "Tell me your purpose."

Chu Yingxiu, "I would like to ask the princess to introduce the Marquis of Yongning to me."

Su Yinyue was puzzled, "You wanted to see the Marquis of Yongning, but you didn't go to the Marquis's mansion, but came to me?"

Chu Yingxiu's eyes flashed with grief and anger, "My brother and I went to the Marquis' Mansion, but the Marquis of Yongning wanted to take the Kunlun Snow Lotus for himself."

"My brother and I managed to get away with great difficulty!"
