The night was like water, the candlelight was dim, and in the quiet space, Chu Nanfeng naturally could not get any answer.
He stared at Lin Qingge's sleeping face quietly, but her bright and kind eyes when she was awake flashed in his mind.
Especially when she got angry and kicked him out of the car, the way she defended him made him feel very warm.
When Ye Xiao's voice sounded at the door, Chu Nanfeng stood up quietly and walked out of the room.
At this time, Sixteen and Seventeen came out, and Sixteen respectfully handed the letter in his hand to him.
Shi Qi whispered: "Sir, after investigation by spies, there are frequent letters between the imperial court and Chi Di's fifteenth clan. And in more than a month, the Gaoluo clan will come to the capital to pay homage on behalf of Chi Di."
As a general, Chu Nanfeng fought bloody battles at the border to protect the land of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and was seriously injured.
As a result, these people enjoying themselves in Beijing, because of Chi Di's small annual tribute, said that fighting turned into friendship, they simply didn't regard the frontier soldiers as human beings!
The muscles in his back tensed up, and there was a chill in his voice: "Arrange people to keep an eye on them. They must not miss any messages from anyone along the way."
"yes."
Chu Nanfeng turned around to enter the house, but paused while pushing the door open.
Ever since he injured his leg, many people who had been attached to him before wanted to step on him, but it was the woman in the room who had never interacted with him who spoke up for him everywhere.
The fact that he can stand up now is even more due to her. It's time for him to do something for her.
"Let Yan Guan prepare the secrets to kill Lin Shuquan's spirit."
…
Lin Qingge felt refreshed after taking back the profits that had been taken by the Lin family over the years.
But when she went to Yixiaotang, she found that shopkeeper Han's eyebrows were filled with sadness.
"Is there something wrong with the store's business?" She looked around, filled with doubts.
Both the location and the Feng Shui setting here are excellent.
As long as no one is looking for trouble, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Boss, I have contacted the drug supplier of the store and invited the famous Dr. Li in the capital to sit in for a consultation."
Isn't it great?
Lin Qingge raised his eyebrows slightly, and Shopkeeper Han gave a wry smile: "The Baicao Oil and White Tiger Ointment you prepared, from the selection of herbs to the manual grinding, are all the best, and the profit margin is not large. Now the Baoan Tang across the street also prepares these two, The price is still ten times ours!”
As he spoke, he walked to the door and looked at the long queue on the opposite side, shaking his head hard.
Obviously they have good quality and low prices, but most people go to the other side.
"Shopkeeper, don't worry." Lin Qingge looked away and spoke nonchalantly, "The drug store is a place to accumulate virtue and do good, and the most important thing is morality and reputation. The reputation of Yixiaotang has been completely ruined over the years, and it will take time to recover. Besides, The Security Hall didn’t take over all the business, right?”
"That's what the boss said." Shopkeeper Han nodded frequently.
After appeasing the shopkeeper and looking at the security hall opposite, Lin Qingge's eyes darkened a lot.
She saw things clearly enough, but it was impossible not to be anxious.
Without enough money, the dark spots on her face can only remain in their current state. She cannot tolerate the pursuit of perfection.
What's more important is that there is no big boss around her who is easy to deal with. She must use her smile to improve her status.
While she was thinking about how to run Yixiaotang, the Lin family's mother and daughter were thinking about skinning and cramping her.
In the court, Lin Shuquan was impeached by Yang Changming, the censor of Zuodu, the Inspectorate, on the grounds that he "collaborated with his wife and daughter to seize the dowry of a good concubine." Emperor Zhou even criticized him for this.
If we can't handle family matters, how can we deal with political matters?
For this reason, Emperor Zhou fined him half a year's salary as a warning to others.
As the Prime Minister, Lin Shuquan naturally would not live solely on his salary, but the Prime Minister was scolded bloody in the court, and he had to constantly accuse him, so he was completely humiliated!
Returning to the Lin family, he stared at Mrs. Lin who had brought Lin Qiuyue to complain with evil eyes: "Look at the evil you have raised and what scandalous things you have done! We can't let her stay at home and embarrass herself. Send her to Zhuangzi and let her fend for herself. Destroy yourself."
Lin Qiuyue's eyes widened. She never expected that her father, who had always loved her, would say such words. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Mrs. Lin understood that Lin Shuquan was not the only daughter like Lin Qiuyue.
To him, dealing with a daughter is nothing. What he wants is the reputation of the Lin family!
Mrs. Lin's mind was in a state of confusion, but she hurriedly exonerated Lin Qiuyue: "Master, how can you blame Yue'er? It was that bitch Lin Qingge who deliberately framed Yue'er! Send her to Zhuangzi, and her life will be ruined!"
"If you let her stay, you will destroy the entire Lin family." Lin Shuquan glanced at Lin Qiuyue with disgust in his eyes, "How could I, Lin Shuquan, have a great reputation for a lifetime and give birth to a daughter as stupid as you? On the other hand, Lin Qingge is a bit like me before. style.”
When Lin Qingge was mentioned, Lin Shuquan narrowed his eyes, with new calculations in his eyes.
"In Xia Yuan, both King Qin and King Qi praised Lin Qingge highly. Mr. Jiu also gave her a black jade token?"
Mrs. Lin felt uneasy, but she nodded honestly: "Yes, but King Qi also loves Yue'er very much."
"Do you care about her?" Lin Shuquan snorted coldly, "With her current situation, do you think King Qi will still accept her?"
A woman who loses her virginity before marriage is not as favored as a woman who marries for the second time!
Mrs. Lin's face was filled with embarrassment: "They are two aunts and cousins, and their feelings are always different from others..."
"What he wants is a wife who can help him, not a wife who will embarrass him." Lin Shuquan waved his hands slightly irritably, "Don't think about the marriage between Yue'er and Prince Qi. I will give it to you personally. Find a match for her and let her get married."
"master!"
"That's enough! If it weren't for the sake of Marquis Xuanping, I would have asked you to leave together!" He glanced at Lin Qiuyue, who was in despair, and felt a little compassion, "Zhuangzi doesn't need to go, but don't leave the door either. Just wait to get married.”
Putting down these words, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Lin Qiuyue wanted to catch up, but she stumbled and fell to the ground, and then cried out with a 'wow'.
But her crying could not stop Lin Shuquan's footsteps from leaving.
Mrs. Lin helped Lin Qiuyue up with great distress: "Yue'er, what are you doing? Don't cry, mother will find a way for you..."
"Mom, dad is angry. He won't help me anymore, but I just want to marry my cousin. What should I do?" She cried heartbreakingly, which made Mrs. Lin's heart twist.
She hugged Lin Qiuyue and comforted her softly: "What are you afraid of? You still have your mother, and your mother will find a way for you."
"But my cousin knows what happened that day, what should I do?"
"Hasn't he always wanted to get Lin Qingge? If I can let Lin Qingge marry into the Chu family instead of you, I can find a way for you to replace Lin Qingge and become King Qi's man."
