Chapter 89 Becoming the Emperor 12
"You've done this to me, aren't you afraid that Master Er will find out? Besides, Brother Chao is his own flesh and blood!"
"Sister, you are so naive. You only know how to make wine and manage the winery. You can't see the person beside you, and can't you see that the Second Master has always valued profit? With your secret recipe and winery, and after killing the two elders of the Shui family and seizing all the Shui family's property, the Second Master's influence in the family has greatly increased, and he has more say. Now the Second Master is seeking the position of head of the family. The legitimate wife and eldest son are the bargaining chips for my Yang family. I will use the influence of the Yang family to help him get rid of the eldest master and help him sit on the position of head of the family! What I can get is the position of legitimate wife and ensure my son's status as the eldest son. The Yang family is also happy to use a illegitimate daughter to consolidate their relationship with the Yang family!"
"A daughter from an aristocratic family, especially one like me born out of wedlock, would have died long ago if she were obsessed with love. You don't have to blame me. I do this for myself. Although the Second Master didn't explicitly instruct me, I'm happy to see it happen. He knows what your situation was like after I came into the family. He just doesn't care."
"Aren't you afraid that he will use the same methods he used against me on you?" Shui was completely disheartened.
"As long as the Yang family doesn't fall, I won't end up in your situation, especially with you as a lesson."
"My Shui family has accumulated wealth for generations, and the brewing recipes developed by our ancestors are truly eye-catching. I thought I was smart and carefully selected, but I still ended up in this situation! All of you go out. I want to die peacefully and respectfully. I'm using a secret of the Qian family in exchange for my son's lifelong safety."
"No, I can only live until my son is born!"
"Ten years, or I'll take you to hell. This secret is very important to your Yang family! It won't be that useful to me once I know it. You didn't leave me with hope. Now that I'm dying, knowing it will give you another life-saving trump card. So, it's up to you!"
Yang came from a prominent family and was influenced by it so much that it was impossible for her to completely ignore such a major event that would affect the family, so she nodded in agreement.
Shui made her swear an oath with the fetus in her womb!
The secret involves another family's conspiracy against the Yang family, and the conspiracy between the current head of the Qian family and outsiders, who were discovered by the second master and threatened to seize the market share.
Shui had little time left, so after closing the Buddhist hall, he knelt in front of the shrine and saw Qian Weichao, who was hiding in the shrine with tears streaming down his face, trying hard to signal him not to come out.
Whispering softly: "My son will have to rely on himself in the future. I could already foresee the outcome today, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. I thought my concession would at least give me a few more years to help my son grow up. For the next ten years, you must live a mediocre and unruly life, secretly seeking a way out and building your power. There is a secret door behind the central mural in the ancestral hall of the Shui family's old house. There lies our Shui family's true wealth! Don't consider revenge until you have saved your own life. The enemy is too powerful: your biological father, the Yang family, the Qian family, and the Yang family! Staying alive is the most important thing! A gentleman's revenge is never too late even after ten years!"
After his mother's death, Qian Weichao, who used to be very smart, became muddle-headed and mediocre. Unfortunately, after ten months of pregnancy, Yang gave birth to a daughter. She didn't take action against Qian Weichao because of the oath she had made, but she was still worried about raising him in the direction of a playboy, causing the Second Master to give up the last bit of value he had for him!
Qian Weichao, using his dandy identity to travel the world, uses the alias Qiu Miao to build his own business empire, leveraging the Shui family's hidden connections within the ancestral hall. However, his desire to avenge his mother is impossible. Ten years later, after giving birth to two daughters, Yang finally gives birth to a son. She then uses a prostitute in a brothel to kill Qian Weichao, who is less than 18 years old, from a stroke.
When the drug was administered, it was discovered by a Jinyiwei, the drug was replaced, and the person was detained. This was originally a Jinyiwei's lair, and after a careful investigation, all of Qian Weichao's affairs were discovered.
Qian Weichao put forward a condition: to uproot the Qian family headed by Mr. Qian Erye and the Yang family, suppress and retaliate against the Yang family, and then he would be loyal to the master and work hard for him!
Afterwards, the Imperial Guards designed a scheme to have the Yang family's true dandy sons bully and beat "Qian Weichao" to death in the street! The real Qian Weichao changed his name to Shui Chou Miao, a descendant of the Shui family who had fallen out of favor and could inherit the Shui family's wine-making business!
Shui Chou Miao started from other places and slowly used the secret wine-making recipe that the Shui family dared not reveal. Under the sign of the Shui family's authentic winery, he gradually expanded and became stronger! Within two years, his business reached the capital.
The fact that even the emperor paid attention to it shows the effectiveness of the work. Qiuqiu then gave the recipe for making vinegar from a modern family to Shui Choumiao, which was a good way to recycle waste and increase the utilization rate of grain!
The Embroidered Uniform Guard brought him instructions from his master: if he wants to take revenge, he should study hard. One year later, he will have a chance to go to Beijing to take the examination for the emperor's disciples. If he passes the examination, he can become an official in the court!
Qiuqiu's storage ring contained a thousand-year-old collection of the Xu family of China, including numerous recipes and techniques that benefited the nation and its people. After nearly three years of practical application, coupled with Qiuqiu's constant attempts to sow discord among the aristocratic families in the court and the disappearance of centuries of accumulated wealth, these families' foundations, without the financial support of their wealth, were reduced to less than 30% of their full potential.
As one thing grew while another grew, new businesses developed all over the country. One reason was that the major aristocratic families didn't pay enough attention to it. The scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans were originally the lowest class of merchants, and the aristocratic families left the management to servants or useless bastards, and they didn't get the attention they deserved!
Due to the lack of money, business became increasingly sluggish. Many wealthy families had to deal with some less important lands and shops as emergency measures. Qiuqiu took the opportunity to lower the prices and got back a lot of land.
They didn't dare bring the matter of the lost silver to light at all. The emperor was short of food and grass for his military campaign in the north. Not to mention collecting, even if he had to borrow from the various noble families, the noble families were all crying poor. Now they suddenly said that their silver was lost, their treasures were gone, and their stored grain disappeared.
This isn't a complaint, it's deceiving the emperor! Furthermore, the major families didn't dare let other families know that their accumulated wealth was gone, as they were being looked down upon.
Therefore, the sale of land and shops was carried out in secret, and the people trained by the emperor were happy to pick up the spoils! By the time the ministers in the court discovered the massive loss of financial resources, manpower and land, it was a foregone conclusion. They even suspected that it was the work of the emperor who had been bedridden for three years and still alive!
Three years later, outstanding students from all over the country returned to Beijing, and the seriously ill emperor and empress met them in high spirits.
Entering the final stage of the prayer, over 2,000 people divided into groups and entered Leiyin Temple to chant sutras and pray for seven days. After undergoing baptism, those with the greatest blessings were selected to enter the palace and share a meal with the Emperor and Empress. They were the light of the people and received their blessings!
In fact, it is to kick out the spies and find the people who are truly talented.
In the end, there were 780 people who could enter the palace with the emperor, including more than 350 women. The emperor was frail, and there were only a few concubines in the harem. The women lived scattered throughout the palace, and it was very convenient for the empress to manage them. Moreover, these were selected women of the lowest rank who came under the empress's direct jurisdiction.
