Chapter 199: Stormy weather, Shen Lin sets a trap
Ye Qinghuan didn't care about the affairs of the court. She just managed her business and small family every day and prepared for the New Year.
Shen Lin goes out early and comes back late, sometimes even not returning home for several nights.
The news that Jiang Shiming and Lu Ziyi spread rumors spread throughout the capital, and finally Ye Qinghuan was cleared of all charges.
The fact that the Marquis Changning's Mansion used land deeds to exchange people was also widely publicized.
When Shen Rong heard that Ye Qinghuan had acquired the fertile land in Nan County, he felt uneasy: "Why did it have to be Nan County?"
"Because Changning Marquis's Mansion has been squandered. The fruit forests in Jiangzhou and the fertile fields in Nan County are their few remaining assets." Zhao Qingyao sighed, "I heard that Ye Qinglan's dowry has also been spent!"
Shen Rong slowly dispelled the doubts in his heart.
These days, he has been busy with more important things - rescuing the third prince Gao Yu.
Crown Prince Gao Xun has returned to Beijing safely and is currently focusing on the assassination of Gao Yu.
The situation was getting worse and worse. Judging from the current situation, the government might not be able to save Gao Yu.
"Husband, the prince, the Qin family, and Shen Lin have already formed a line of defense." Zhao Qingyao reminded.
Shen Rong felt even more annoyed.
Prince Gao Xun is very favored by the emperor. It is said that Shen Lin contributed to his return to Beijing alive this time! So the emperor also has a special preference for Shen Lin.
Shen Lin is already a member of the prince's party. If Gao Yu really dies and Gao Xun ascends the throne, he will abandon his past life and will never be able to obtain the military power of the Shen family army!
Gao Yu must not be allowed to die!
The only one who died was Gao Xun!
"My dear, mother told us to find a way to rescue the third prince." Zhao Qingyao conveyed the mother's will with a serious expression.
"That's easy for you to say. How can we save the crown prince who was murdered?" Shen Rong pushed the wheelchair irritably and walked back and forth in the house. "I have no official position or military power now. What can I do?"
Whenever Shen Rong thought of this, he felt extremely resentful.
If his legs weren't crippled, how could he be so weak?
If his legs were not disabled, at least half of the Shen family army would be under his command!
"If the crown prince changes his words, the third prince can live." Zhao Qingyao said.
Shen Rong sneered: "The Crown Prince and the Third Prince are at loggerheads, how could he possibly change his words?"
"Money. Money makes the world go round, and the same is true for the Crown Prince." Zhao Qingyao said, "According to reliable information, the Crown Prince has been away from the capital for too long, and his power is weak now. If the Crown Prince wants to build his own power, he must spend money. We provide him with money, and he will let the Third Prince go this time."
"Do you think it's feasible?" Shen Rong thought it was ridiculous. "No matter how short of money the prince is, he wouldn't go to this extent."
"He will definitely disagree, but mother has her own power to check and balance him. Let's raise 100,000 silver first and let mother negotiate."
"That much? But a mere 100,000 silver taels should be enough."
"The money of the *** Mansion cannot be moved now. So, we can only rely on it." Zhao Qingyao said, "Although the emperor has always respected my mother, he was very angry this time. He has kept my mother in the palace and is fully monitoring the *** Mansion."
"But I can't afford much money right now." Shen Rong pondered, "The silver I can move is less than 20,000."
"I have some in my dowry. If I sell some of it, I can get 50,000 taels." Zhao Qingyao said, "There is still a gap of 50,000."
Shen Rong had just taken over the general's mansion, so it was not appropriate to sell the fields and land at this time.
So, he thought of Bai Qing's pearl farm - pearls can be converted into cash the fastest, and they can be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver.
If it is not convenient to sell in Shengjing, go to Beidi and Xiyi to sell.
"Okay, I'll take care of the remaining gaps." Shen Rong said.
Zhao Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, husband."
