Guan Jingqiu knew that the second prince behind the tree was observing them secretly.
On the eve of the flower viewing party, Nangong Yan held a small "tea tasting party" at home.
The second prince's concubine Zou "happened" to visit Nangong Yan's sister-in-law Chen. The two were close friends, so it was "natural" that they met many noble ladies in the garden.
During the chat, Concubine Zou said feeling lonely,
"Now, Your Highness has only one daughter. Although Your Highness said nothing, Concubine He and I were very anxious. We urged Your Highness several times to marry another concubine or take in more concubines. However, Your Highness always refused. I am willing. If this continues, won’t it delay the royal family’s heirs?”
Mrs. Chen and Concubine Zou met while walking on the veranda. They were neither far nor close to the ladies, but the veranda was full of noise, and their conversation could clearly fall on the ears of interested people.
Mrs. Chen saw a few young ladies starting to prick up their ears and pay attention, and couldn't help but evoke a playful smile.
Mrs. Chen raised her voice and said,
"Concubine He is virtuous and highly respected by His Highness. The concubine is also kind and approachable, but I don't know which noble daughter is so lucky. Why don't you two help His Highness choose someone, not the concubine, but also the concubine? Yes! Your Highness, the Second Prince, is so handsome and handsome, so he is a good match! When a boy is found, the royal family will naturally promote the birth mother to a higher rank and put her on a jade plate. Wouldn’t everyone be happy? "
When Guan Jingqiu heard this, her mind started to get excited!
Previously, Guan Jingqiu's only thought was to be a concubine for Zhou Biao or Zhou Huan, but later she found that this path was unworkable.
So, I dreamed about whether I could be an equal wife for Li Mi.
She really couldn't marry a first-class prince like Li Mi, and she couldn't marry into any wealthy and famous family. She couldn't be a wife, so she felt satisfied to be an ordinary wife.
In short, Guan Jingqiu wants to follow her father's arrangement and marry into a family that is not as prominent as the Minister's Mansion, even if she wants to be the head wife.
Guan Jingqiu's biological mother was her aunt. Before she became Guan Shilang's concubine, she was engaged to be the son of a small landowner.
Guan Jingqiu's biological mother would rather be a concubine than a decent lady. Nowadays, Guan Jingqiu and his sister are no different from their eldest sister Guan Jingzhu in the palace of the Vice Minister.
Therefore, Guan Jingqiu never thinks that there is anything great about being someone's first wife!
Of course, it’s better to be a legal wife. On the premise that you can’t be a legal wife, it’s not a big deal to be an ordinary wife, a noble concubine, or a concubine!
The key is that this man must have power and money!
Now that there is such a good opportunity, how can Guan Jingqiu let it go?
Being a concubine for the second prince would be inferior to a few people, but superior to tens of millions of people!
When the time comes, she, Guan Jingqiu, will no longer be inferior to them even when she is in front of people like County Lord Qili and County Lord Yangxu.
Moreover, if the second prince can ascend to Dabao in the future, then she will at least be one of the "four concubines"!
If a son is born, the position of concubine and concubine must belong to her!
Just like today's Concubine Qin and Concubine Shangguan Shu, glory and wealth are at your fingertips!
And the most important thing is to stand tall!
By that time, everyone, including Qi Li, Yang Xu, and even Princess Tong'an, will have to treat her with respect.
Just as she was dreaming, she heard Concubine Zou sigh quietly,
"Oh, how can my sister and I dare to make decisions for His Highness so easily! His Highness has recently become concerned about Duke Li's granddaughter Ji Min and her cousin Ji Jun for some unknown reason. I also quietly went to see him, but I just looked like a middle-aged man. But, come to think of it, , His Highness has his plans, and I don’t dare to ask.”
Mrs. Chen smiled and said,
"You are too worried! It's just that the burrito shop opened by the two sisters is making a lot of noise, and His Highness just pays attention as if watching a play. The two of them, one is just the legitimate daughter of a fourth-rank general, and the other She is still a merchant girl, how can she catch His Highness’s eyes!”
Concubine Zou shook her head and whispered,
"Your Highness is not a lecherous person. I heard that Miss Ji's body has some secrets. Your Highness wants to know what it is. If Miss Ji's family is brought to the Prince's Mansion, wouldn't it be a close call?"
Chen didn’t take it seriously;
"Then just propose marriage. One will be a concubine and the other a concubine. How dare they not agree?"
Concubine Zou rolled her eyes at Mrs. Chen,
"How can it be so easy? Now eight hundred eyes are staring at Ji Min, and the second prince doesn't want to be the first raft. If you can think of it, others can think of it, otherwise, look, why is Aunt Su Jin of the Huai'an Marquis Mansion doing that? After tossing these two sisters like this, they are left to their own devices inside and outside the Huai'an Houfu. Isn't it just that everyone is waiting and watching? Let's see if Su Jin can figure out this secret."
Chen was surprised.
"I've never heard of it. To find out secrets, you have to use your aunt to bully people into finding out."
Concubine Zou was also very confused and said,
"Who says it's not! I just heard that there is a secret hidden deep in the heart, and even I sometimes don't know it. Only when the mind is severely impacted, or under some coincidences, the secret may suddenly emerge , It’s like a person suddenly having a great enlightenment.”
Mrs. Chen was speechless.
"It's so mysterious! We ordinary people really can't understand it."
Concubine Zou thought to herself, you don’t need to understand, as long as someone uses force on Ji Min, that’s all.
During the flower viewing banquet, the Lord of Qili County will not be idle, and the young ladies who want to be the concubines of the second prince are adding fuel to the fire. I don't believe that Ji Min will not peel off a layer of skin!
His Highness said that if he had helped Ji Nian when he was at his most miserable, Ji Nin would have shed tears of gratitude.
If he stepped on Ji Min when he was most helpless, there might be some unexpected gains!
In short, it’s a sure profit!
After hearing this, Guan Jingqiu began to make secret calculations. If she helped the Lord of Linli County to throw Ji Min to Liao Rong, would the second prince be angry?
I don’t know whether the second prince was furious or not. At this moment, County Master Yangxu came straight to Guan Jingqiu and others with his maid!
Last time, on the day when Liuli got married to Chen Bing, the son of Chen Guogong, Guan Jingqiu said that in order to harm Ji Min, the Chen Guogong's palace was brought into chaos.
The head of Yangxu County was suffocating in his heart.
At this moment, Yangxu County Master has a mission again, and his hands are itching when he sees Guan Jingqiu!
The head of Yangxu County seemed to see the banknotes flying all over the sky, like snowflakes!
Fight Guan Jingqiu! A slap in the face requires a palm print! One hundred taels of silver per punch!
If you hit the body, you have to stand still, one punch is fifty taels!
If you beat Meilin, you will be reduced by twenty taels!
Beat Nangong Yan and increase the number by ten taels!
Fight Shangguan Sprite and Shangguan Xuesheng, with Meilin!
beat……
That day, in the back room of "Good Neighbor", Ji Jun and Ji Min were taking stock of the "Good Neighbor" income this month.
Li Mi saw Ji Jun counting the thick banknotes one by one, but his face was unhappy, and he asked with concern,
"What? Sales are not as good as last month?"
In Li Mi's view, last month's "Golden List Title" package, "Little Bridge Flowing Water" package, "End of the World" package, in short, these various packages are selling like crazy!
Li Mi discovered that although it was still a burrito, of course the contents of the roll had changed, but even if it changed, wouldn't it still be edible?
However, it is so annoying that if you put out a set meal, a large number of people will come to buy it!
As for the former model, it was immediately put on sale at a discount, which attracted a large number of people to grab it!
Li Mi didn't understand. Why didn't he wait to buy this product when it was on sale? It’s the same food and cheaper!
Not only that, almost everyone who had sold out the set meal felt as if they had drunk the ecstasy soup, and followed Shaoyao and others in shouting in the store:
"You are the most important in my heart! A burrito is full of affection!"
“Add chopped green onion and minced garlic! It’s just as good without the chili pepper!”
"Be a vegetable and a meal, eat the burrito and work hard!"
"I like salty, I like sweet, and I am so generous that I will look forward to tomorrow with a smile!"
Then, another wave of people came to buy burritos!
The old god Jijun is in the tunnel,
"Cousin, you don't understand this! What I do is in line with people's need to save face! Think about it, now that we have launched a new type of burrito, if there are any respectable people in the capital who haven't eaten it or heard about it, If you have said it, or haven’t bought it, does it seem particularly outdated and shameless?”
Before Li Mi said anything, Zhan Xiao said hurriedly,
"The eldest lady is so right! That day, Long'an Crown Prince Zhou Xian couldn't buy any, so he specifically asked for his help to find me and help him buy a few copies!"
Zhan Xiao and Zhou Xian's Chang Sui have known each other since childhood.
Ji Junqi said,
"Zhou Xian? The brother of County Master Qiqing and County Master Yangxu? Why are you going around in such a big circle? Just go to his sister and mention Sister Liuli to us, and we'll get married, right?"
Li Mi smiled and said,
"How dare he tell his sister such a thing? County Lord Qiqing has a good temper and can be cold-faced at best. County Lord Yangxu might give him a scolding!"
"Ah?" Ji Jun was surprised.
Ji Min explained aloud,
"The Crown Prince of Long'an is incompetent. He lost a lot of money in gambling in the past few years. Therefore, when the Prince of Long'an married the Lord of Qiqing County, many of the gifts he asked for were actually given to Zhou Xian in gambling."
Ji Jun's mind instantly thought of Xue Baochai and Xue Pan in "A Dream of Red Mansions". Is this another example of "brother dragging down sister"?
Ji Jun smiled bitterly and shook his head, wondering what Zhou Xian was doing, he had better think about how to deal with the Lord of Qili County.
"If I can use money to make the Lord of Qili County honest, I would rather work for a year in vain!" Ji Jun said in a slightly depressed mood.
Li Mi knew what Ji Jun was worried about, so he explained,
"We have made preparations for Zuili, so don't worry too much. However, it is true that Zuili cannot be smashed with money, but County Master Yangxu can. But now, it is not Yangxu who wants to cause trouble, but Zuili. !”
When Ji Jun heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped Li Mi heavily on the shoulder.
"Oh! Big brother! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Li Mi grinned, not because he was in pain, but because he was scared!
Li Mi, "..."
What did you say earlier?
The wives have become brothers!
Ji Jun grabbed the banknote and smiled with crooked eyebrows, as if his face were covered with happy little flowers!
Li Mi didn't know why.
"What do you mean?"
Ji Jun shook his head proudly and said,
"Hey hey hey! People with money can make ghosts push millstones, but now I have money and can make millstones push sheep!"
