After hearing that Jiang Nianjiao had only done such complicated comparison work before, everyone couldn't help but sigh that Jiang Nianjiao was really meticulous in her work.
Concubine Min De was even more appreciative and said, "It's hard to believe that Jiaojiao can think so carefully. I think Jiaojiao's method is very good."
Although Concubine Yuxian did not speak directly, she obviously agreed. However, since she was the person in charge, she naturally did not want to appear too biased, so she only asked the other concubines what they thought of the proposal, and it was rare for the others to have any opinions.
Just when everyone was about to approve Jiang Nianjiao's proposal.
However, Li Bin spoke again at this moment and said, "What Miss Jiang means is that you plan to change the merchant, but even the merchant has changed. Who can guarantee their quality? If something goes wrong, Miss Jiang, can you afford it?" Is this responsibility?"
Jiang Nianjiao really wanted to say that she could really afford this responsibility. After all, she had confirmed this, but now if the royal family was involved. But it was hard for her to speak too fully.
She only said softly, "What Empress Libi said is that it would be better to do this. I can first send people to find out about the merchants who purchased from these lists. If we can negotiate the prices one by one, I will ask the servants in my house to do it." What do you think of leading the father-in-law over there? But in this case, I may not be able to give you an answer tomorrow. Of course, I can still give you an answer the day after tomorrow at the latest."
Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao had said this, Concubine Li naturally said nothing more. Seeing that the others had no objections, Concubine Yuxian just said to Jiang Nianjiao, "Then leave this matter to Jiaojiao."
Then Concubine Yuxian just said to the others, "If nothing happens to you, please leave first."
Concubine Yuxian has spoken like this, so naturally it is not easy for others to stay.
After everyone left, Concubine Yu Xian only pulled Jiang Nianjiao into the inner hall. She couldn't help but feel a little distressed and said, "It's been a hard journey for you, but Jiaojiao, don't take everything on yourself." . Aunt looks at you and has lost weight."
Jiang Nianjiao saw that her aunt's face was very similar to that of the girl in the dream's mother, and she felt an infinite sense of intimacy. "It's not tiring to be delicate, and besides, it's such a simple matter."
Concubine Yu Xian chuckled, but Jiang Nianjiao suddenly asked, "Aunt, can I ask you a question?"
Concubine Yuxian said, "You tell me."
"Does my mother look a lot like you?" Jiang Nianjiao asked.
She would ask her aunt about this matter. In fact, there is almost no sign of her mother living in the Jiang Mansion today. She only heard that her mother died in childbirth, but there is only a portrait of her mother in the house. None of them stayed, and almost all the old people his mother brought there were dispersed before Yu Se married into Jiang Mansion.
Therefore, she has a very weak impression of her mother, and even if she thinks about it now, she has almost no way to ask about it.
However, after hearing this, Concubine Yuxian was slightly startled, "Why did Jiaojiao suddenly ask about this?"
"It's nothing. I just had a dream a few days ago. In the dream, there was a woman who looked exactly like my aunt, but she was not my aunt, so I wanted to ask my mother what she was like."
Hearing this, Concubine Yuxian suddenly asked with concern, "Did she say anything to you? What was she doing at that time? What did you dream about?"
Seeing Concubine Yuxian asking such concerned questions, Jiang Nianjiao naturally couldn't tell the truth. She just made up a random answer, "It's nothing. I just dreamed that the woman kept crying and seemed to call my name."
When Concubine Yuxian heard this, her eyes showed a sad and desolate look. She remained silent for a long time, as if she was trapped in some sad memory.
Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but call out a few words softly before she came back to her senses.
Then she stood up and said, "Since Jiaojiao took the initiative to ask, I will take you to see it."
After her words fell, she only walked to the inner room, then she opened a small sandalwood wooden cabinet, and then took out only a long small wooden box. The wooden box contained a rolled scroll. She opened the scroll, but The beauties in the painting are holding gauze fans and looking at each other on the railing in the corridor, and there is a girl in pink clothes fluttering butterflies in the flower field under the corridor.
Although the description of the two people's faces was very freehand, Jiang Nianjiao still easily recognized that the girl fluttering butterflies under the flowers should be her aunt when she was young, and the person in the corridor who was somewhat similar to her aunt should be
She must be her own mother.
Concubine Yu Xian quickly confirmed Jiang Nianjiao's suspicion. She pointed at the woman sitting in the corridor and said, "Jiaojiao, this is your mother."
When Jiang Nianjiao heard this, she only looked at the woman in the painting carefully.
Concubine Yuxian said from the side, "Your mother didn't leave any portrait, but this one was drawn by me after asking your mother for a long time."
Looking at the woman in the painting, she then said, "But since you asked about this, I will give you this portrait."
It can be seen that my aunt has very deep feelings for her mother. When she said this, her eyes were full of reluctance.
However, she said that if she gave the portrait to herself, she would probably not take it back, so Jiang Nianjiao still took the portrait that Concubine Yu Xian left for her, and carefully put it back in the box.
Then she asked her aunt how she planned to deal with the incident of the princess of Prince Liang being drugged.
It was okay for Jiang Nianjiao not to mention this matter. Concubine Yu Xian's expression became a little colder when she mentioned it.
"Not long after that, I asked Prince Liang to pick up Prince Liang's wife. After all, their incident had caused a storm in the city. Now Xu Zhilan has been taken back by the Xu family. Doesn't this confirm those rumors?"
"Every one of them said that His Highness Prince Liang spoiled his concubines and killed his wife. Even His Majesty reprimanded Prince Liang for this matter. I couldn't possibly let this rumor continue to spread. So I asked him to go to the Xu Mansion in person to apologize. , took Xu Zhilan back. I heard that Xu Zhilan gradually recovered after being raised for three or two days. The Xu family was overly angry and agreed to our family's request, but now they still have one request, that is It was to deal with Su Zhirou."
"After all, it was because of her that Lan'er fell into a coma." Concubine Yuxian whispered.
"Auntie really thinks that Concubine Su did this?" Jiang Nianjiao asked.
Concubine Yuxian didn't say much.
Jiang Nianjiao then said, "Miss Su is not a fool. Why would she do something like this that would cast doubt on her? Besides, what benefit would poisoning Xu Zhilan do to her? Could it be that the position of the princess still belongs to her?"
"Although Miss Su has some knowledge in detoxifying poisons, she doesn't know how to make poisons."
Listening to Jiang Nianjiao's passionate defense of Su Zhirou, Concubine Yuxian's eyes showed some doubts. If Jiang Nianjiao had thought before that Jiang Nianjiao was in love with Zhao Nianze and was speaking for Zhao Nianze, then now she was not talking about Su Zhirou. Zhirou spoke.
However, she did not raise any questions in this regard. She only said softly, "Jiaojiao, in fact, what is the importance of the truth now."
"What does aunt mean by this?" Jiang Nianjiao asked in surprise.
"The Xu family cannot allow their daughter to be wronged. The King of Liang was too doting on Su Zhirou, but he abandoned his wife. This matter has long been rumored in the capital. The Xu family is actually waiting for an opportunity to attack. , so no matter whether the murderer in the end is her, Su Zhirou cannot stay!" When Concubine Yu Xian said this, a coldness flashed in her eyes.
"Does the aunt mean to follow the Xu family's arrangements and deal with Su Zhirou?" Jiang Nianjiao took a breath of air.
Concubine Yuxian didn't say anything, but she obviously acquiesced to this matter.
Jiang Nianjiao quickly persuaded, "Aunt, not to mention that she is not a murderer, besides, she is kind to His Highness, and His Highness likes her so much. If you kill the one he loves when he likes her the most, do you think His Highness Prince Liang will agree to it?" ?”
Concubine Yuxian sighed after hearing this, "It is true that he did not agree to this request, but this is also His Majesty's intention. Your Majesty does not want to see his son, and he will live and die for a woman."
Hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao was slightly startled.
Then Concubine Yuxian said, "Jiaojiao, don't tell me these things. After all, this matter is not something I can decide."
Since Emperor Yong was involved behind this, Jiang Nianjiao knew that no matter how scared she told her aunt, it would be difficult to reverse the situation, unless there was some shocking reversal in the truth.
When Jiang Nianjiao came out of the Chuxiu Palace where Concubine Yuxian was, she was still in a state of wandering.
After a while, she realized that today's system seemed a little abnormal.
If this system had heard that Su Zhirou was in any danger before, the first thing it would have done immediately would have been to issue a task to itself.
However, this time even Emperor Yong was determined to punish Su Zhirou.
But there was no response.
Could it be that the system is offline?
Thinking of this, she tentatively called the system.
"Host, what's the matter?" The system seemed a little weak at this time.
"Now that Su Zhirou is involved in such a big turmoil, hasn't your general system issued any tasks?" Although Jiang Nianjiao wanted to take care of this matter, when it came to matters involving Su Zhirou and Zhao Nianze, she always felt that if she couldn't make money along the way, If you get one point, you will lose.
Unexpectedly, the system said uncharacteristically this time, "It's okay, you don't have to worry about them, His Highness Prince Liang can protect her this time."
"Really?" Jiang Nianjiao expressed her doubts about this.
But now that the system has said this, she naturally no longer worries about Su Zhirou. After all, she can't get out now because of the blessings in the northern suburbs.
When Jiang Nianjiao came out of the palace, because it was still early, she did not go back home, but went directly to the Qianji Incense and Candle Shop listed on the list. @
It was almost noon when we arrived at the east side of the city.
Jiang Nianjiao wanted to get things done as soon as possible, so she was not in a hurry to have a meal, but went directly to Qianji Incense and Candle Shop.
The street where Qian Ji is located is full of places selling incense and candles, so in front of a bunch of incense and candle shops, this Qian Ji is really not that eye-catching. Jiang Nianjiao also asked Lianying to follow him to explore, and just now he was in the east of the city. I found the somewhat dilapidated Qianji Incense Candle Shop in the depths.
