After several days of continuous rain, the sun finally came out. It was a rare sunny day. Shen Que's body was already well. He finally stepped out of the house after recuperating for many days.
It was just an unpleasant experience. She didn't plan to get married in this life, so it didn't matter if she lost something.
I looked up at the bright sun and felt that there are still many things to do in life. My areas of expertise have not yet been fully developed. I have no time to regret the spring and autumn, let alone blame anyone.
This life is not easy. If you waste time on the unpleasantness of the past, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
After cheering up, Shen Que got in the car and headed straight to the shop.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been involved in the business in the shop. I wonder how well Amu has learned, can she read the account books clearly, has she mastered the channels for purchasing goods, can the quality screening make her feel at ease, and the business in the shop, Jin Autumn in An is very short, and winter is about to begin. Cloth shops and garment bureaus have to change into thick winter clothes. The end of the year means festivals. Do jewelry shops and rouge shops have the most fashionable designs...
Oops, when I think of these things, I feel excited all over, and I immediately become energetic and stop thinking about it.
The horse-drawn carriages were rolling down the street, and the warm autumn sun was making me feel comfortable. There were more people on the street, and it was a good time for guests to come.
There are many shops to visit today, and the first stop is the jewelry store.
The car stopped at the door of the shop. Shen Que got out of the car and told the driver to leave first. He might have to stay longer.
When he stepped into the door, he was greeted by a lively scene of crowds of people. He felt happy, and Shen Que quietly found a corner and watched slowly.
A young boy noticed her arrival and hurriedly smiled and called "Master" as if he were seeing a relative. Shen Que also smiled and said a few words and asked them to go ahead and get started.
Today's business is particularly good. Most of the ladies and ladies from high-profile families come to choose jewelry, and some come with pictures and request customization. After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Family reunions, visits to relatives and friends, and marriages and gifts are all coming. All need to be decorated.
The two people closest to Shen Que were the older woman, whose hair was covered with gold and silver. She was elegant and elegant. She wore a long brocade dress made of gold silk. It was obvious at a glance that she came from a wealthy family.
The young lady standing next to her was wearing a thin goose down cloak. The soft and distinct material was worth a lot at first glance.
"Mom, I like this pair of hairpins." The little lady's voice was soft and sweet, with a sweet smile on her face.
The woman took it and looked at it for a while, then said: "It's very unique. If you like it, buy it back. It's just the same. Just wear it on weekdays. If it's the engagement day, you still have to wear a gold hairpin to show your dignity."
The young lady nodded and said hello, then handed the hairpin to the shopkeeper, and then asked, "Do you have any unique gold hairpins?"
Before the shopkeeper could answer, the woman on the side said: "I think Jin Chai is a bit mean-spirited, shopkeeper, why don't you just customize a set of gold-headed noodles?"
The shopkeeper naturally said yes, and the two parties began to discuss the style of the headdress and the embellishment materials.
Shen Que listened for a while, and found out that this lady was very demanding, as if she was afraid that her daughter would be wronged, and she wanted the best and most expensive ones. Such a set of clothes would cost several hundred taels in total. Not only that, the style she wanted I'm afraid it won't be fashionable after the New Year. Not to mention the waste, it will also affect the reputation of the shop.
So Shen Que stepped forward to pay homage and said: "Madam, our store will soon receive a new batch of the most fashionable styles of noodles. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for two days, or you can make a decision by looking at the sample book first. "
Upon hearing this, the mother and daughter immediately said hello, "We have money, but we want the most luxurious and fashionable ones."
The shopkeeper asked: "Boss, we haven't decided to enter those yet."
Shen Que said that he would make a decision immediately, and then smiled and said to his mother and daughter: "Although the price is more expensive, it is still a real good thing. If you can wear it, you will definitely be the most beautiful."
Unexpectedly, there was no excitement or surprise as expected. The mother and daughter looked at each other, and it was the lady who asked her first:
"Are you the owner of this shop? Your surname is Shen?"
Shen Que was right, "It's me, my father Shen Fu, and my daughter Shen Que."
"It turns out it's you." The lady's expression immediately dropped, and there was displeasure in her voice, "How could a decent-looking person do such a shameless thing?"
Her voice was a little loud, causing everyone around her to gather around and start talking:
"Is this the prince she seduced? How shameless."
"You are not as good as the women in Goulan, but you use such despicable methods. It shows that your character is not good, and this thing is not much better."
"Yes, if people knew that what she was wearing was from her family, would they be considered that kind of person?"
"Forget it, no matter how good it is, you can't buy it. Reputation is important, so let's go."
…
The unpleasant words came like a flood, and everyone dropped their jewelry and left.
The shop quickly became quiet, as if the bustle just now was just a dream.
The shopkeeper and the waiter were both stunned, looking at Shen Que in embarrassment, embarrassment and bewilderment, as if it was all their fault.
Shen Que said with a smile, "I'm sorry, it's me who has caused trouble to everyone."
"My boss, please don't say that. We all know who my boss is." The shopkeeper quickly advised her, "They are the ones who don't know right from wrong and are throwing dirty water on my boss."
"Yes, boss, don't talk about yourself like that. I don't blame my boss at all."
Guys also stood up to speak for her.
Shen Que himself didn't care, but now, he really didn't expect that it would affect the business of the shop.
So he stood up and said, "I'm leaving first. If anything happens, come and see me at home."
A man walked out the door lonely.
Not far behind her, a majestic and tall figure stared at her, feeling heartbroken.
Li Luansong followed her for a while, fearing that she would be looked down upon again, and did not stop until he saw her boarding the car and leaving.
The next day, there was another quarrel in the court.
Instead of giving in, the ministers intensified their demands for the prince to take back his life. Seeing that the new policy was about to fail, Li Luansong felt powerless and failed.
Shen Que ignored him. He was not even qualified to protect her. He watched helplessly as she was bullied, ridiculed and embarrassed because of him.
Mutam's ghost still lingers, and he comes looking for trouble from time to time, almost like a madman.
Now even the New Deal is not being implemented smoothly, and Shen Fu is being scolded as well.
…
After hastily withdrawing from the court, Li Luansong just wanted to be alone and quiet.
But this time, the old ministers went too far. Taking advantage of their large numbers, they chased him from the court to the imperial study room, forcing His Highness to take back his life.
Is the New Deal just like this? Li Luansong felt unwilling to accept it. He felt that he was not wrong and remained strong and firm. The ministers were tired of arguing and found that it had no effect, so they got entangled and simply went to the summer resort to complain to the emperor and empress.
The poor Emperor Xiaochun was forced to repeat his old tricks and fainted on the spot. The imperial doctor hurriedly came and drove away the old ministers.
*
First there was drugging in the wine, and then there were rumors. Who was the person behind this and what was his purpose.
After Li Luansong disguised himself, he found the boatman again. The boatman beat him to death and refused to say anything. He had no choice but to secretly take the person to prison. After coercion and inducement, the boatman finally said:
"The villain is just a boatman. That day a gentleman came. The clothes he wore did not look like the coarse cotton clothes of ordinary people, but they did not look like the silks and satins of rich families. They were somewhere in between. Bar."
Li Luansong thought for a while and asked: "What kind of dress and appearance." He wore a gray bunt, good clothes, a gray hat on his head, and it was a silver ingot. How had we ever taken so much money? He was fascinated for a while and then he agreed. "
In this way, he is just a servant of a wealthy family, doing things under the orders of his master.
When I asked which family it was, the boatman said he didn't know, "We just collect money and do things. It's inappropriate to ask too many questions."
There are so many people like this in the capital, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, the clues are interrupted.
Li Luansong was depressed.
For several days in a row, I couldn't sleep, so I stood by the bed and looked at the moon. Every time, I could think of that night when the two of them looked at the moon together before setting off. She said she would always be by his side. They were so good at that time... …
After not going to court for five consecutive days, Li Luansong didn't want to face the noisy ministers, and he couldn't figure out who was responsible. He was in a bad mood and hid in public claiming to be ill.
On this day, the young eunuch came to report and said: "The Marquis of Pingchang wants to see you."
Yang Xiao? What is he here to do?
After all, they were relatives and it was hard to refuse, so Li Luansong tidied up and invited the people in.
Yang Xiao came to visit a patient, so he bowed first when he entered the door.
After all, he was an elder, and Li Luansong was very polite, saying that he was fine, probably because he was worried about the New Deal and had nothing to do.
Yang Xiao said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's opinion is correct. It's those old guys who refuse to change."
In a rare agreement of opinions, Li Luansong said: "Thank you uncle for your support, but they just don't agree at the moment. The New Deal is stuck and I can't advance or retreat. I am very worried."
Yang Xiao stood up and asked for help: "If His Highness believes in the humble ministers and the old ministers are willing to come forward to convince those people, they will definitely agree with His Highness's new policy."
Li Luansong was stunned. Yang Xiao had been away from the government for a long time and had only been his idle prince in these years. How could he have the leisure to help him now, and he was so confident that he patted his chest and said, "I will definitely make them agree."
Although Yang Xiao in front of him was about the same age as Shen Fu, he looked several years younger because of his pampering. Li Luansong looked at him and had an ominous premonition in his heart:
"What kind of method can uncle use to make those stubborn old men compromise?"
He wanted to find out something. After all, this was a question that he and Shen Fu and other officials who agreed with the New Deal had been thinking about for a long time but had not figured out yet.
Yang Xiao smiled and said: "Of course I have a way, but I can't reveal it to His Highness for the time being. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
Li Luansong did not blame him and looked at him silently, waiting for his next words.
Sure enough, Yang Xiao said: "But there is one thing I can tell His Highness. I know that His Highness is not only worried about this matter recently, but also that Shen Fu's daughter was harmed by rumors. His Highness must also be very distressed.
I want to solve all His Highness's difficulties at once, not only to persuade those old stubborns to agree to the new deal, but also to let Shen Que's rumors be carried on my daughter Zhi'er. This condition is——
His Highness must marry the princess as the crown princess. "
