"Thank you, young general, for arriving in time." Chu Weize and Chu Weizhou left. Qiu Yilan stopped pretending to be pitiful and walked out from behind Jiang Yashuang. She saluted him and said with a smile, "Otherwise I would be a little Little princess, I really don’t know how to face the two highnesses, King Yan and King Zhou?”
She has been busy with things these days. Girls of this age were usually thinner, but now she is so thin that her chin is pointed, which makes her face even more delicate and delicate. In particular, her eyes were shaped like peach blossoms. When she was angry, she seemed to look at people with a certain amount of affection. Now when she smiled, she looked even more affectionate.
Yi Jiang Yashuang's city government was also stunned for a moment, and then returned the favor with a smile: "Princess, you are too polite. King Yan may not be the match of Princess Yan when talking to King Zhou!"
"What are the identities of His Highness King Zhou and His Highness King Yan? If it weren't for Empress Fuze, how would I have the qualifications to engage in a verbal dispute with them? What use can my words have in such an occasion?" Qiu Yilan smiled and said, "His Royal Highness King Yan's six thousand taels of silver, if the young general wasn't here just now, how could he give it so readily?"
Jiang Yashuang said with a smile: "That's because the county master was smart and seized the opportunity to attack his army." He changed the topic and said, "Today's incident was very sudden. I also received the news and rushed here, so I reluctantly came here. King Yan was blocked on the road... but I wonder if the princess knows the origin of this matter? "
Qiu Yilan glanced at the family wearing sackcloth and mourning in the corner, and told He Zifu, "Go and deal with them!" When He Zifu shouted and dragged the people out, she said solemnly, "Do you want some advice from the young general?"
"The ninth day of April is the day when the Oiran Competition takes place in the capital." Jiang Yashuang said calmly, "This time the King of Zhou fought with Lord Ling Xiaohou. It is said that Ling's cousin is on good terms with Lord Ling Xiaohou. He is now in Xiaoxiao. It's not convenient to show up in this kind of thing, but I can definitely help Ling Xiaohou in private. And this 'Renqing Hall' was bought by Ling's cousin after he came to Beijing and before he became the heir to the Ruan family. Industry…”
Qiu Yilan felt a little headache: "Then this kind of thing will happen next?" She heard Jiang Yashuang's direct explanation of this matter: This is Ruan Qingyan's private matter. The reason why Jiang Yashuang was willing to do this today is because The timing of the incident and the people involved could easily be misunderstood as a provocation from the Queen Mother's group to the Queen's group.
Once King Zhou understands and avoids this misunderstanding, Jiang Yashuang may not be willing to continue to intervene - after all, he is the direct grandson of the father-in-law and the queen's nephew. It's okay to run around for the queen and the Jiang family. Ruan Qingyan's personal affairs are running around, how is it possible
And why is the King of Zhou a prince, and he has also been granted the title of king? How could someone other than Jiang Yashuang's status be able to suppress him
Sure enough, Qiu Yilan asked tentatively, and Jiang Yashuang smiled and said lightly: "After the princess returns, it's best to ask your cousin to send someone to inform Ling Xiaohou."
Qiu Yilan bit her petal-like lips, thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "I almost forgot - the young general rescued and escorted his old servant Qu Shan's family to the general's mansion two days ago. I am really grateful!"
"Oh, I just met by chance while traveling, Princess, don't worry too much." Jiang Yashuang smiled slightly, with a graceful demeanor, without any smoke and fire, and without any murderous intention, said politely, "They are also the ones who want to attack them. Life is not very good."
"The Qushan family was lucky enough to meet the young general." Qiu Yilan said thoughtfully, "But when the mother-in-law passed away, many of the servants were sold by the uncle's family... After all, not every servant is. The Qushan family is lucky."
Jiang Yashuang smiled and looked at her quietly.
This made Qiu Yilan feel as if he had read through her thoughts - she paused for a moment before continuing: "Would the person who attacked the Qushan family be afraid of the good life of the Qushan family and start elsewhere? After all, the Duke of Qin’s reputation is far-reaching. If they fall into the hands of the young general, they will inevitably feel guilty and short of breath. If they dare not continue to do this, they will try other ideas? "
Seeing Jiang Yashuang still smiling lightly, Qiu Yilan simply said everything, "Two days ago, Qushan's family was almost killed, and now Ruan's shop has been slandered and smashed. How can such a coincidence happen? I Look, nine times out of ten, it was done by a group of people, right?"
"If a group of people did it, what is the princess going to do?" Jiang Yashuang asked with a smile.
Qiu Yilan looked at him hopefully: "It's so unfair to be bullied all the time. I think I should teach the bully a lesson?"
Jiang Yashuang said meaningfully: "Then it depends on how the princess teaches you a lesson?"
"What do you mean, little general?" Qiu Yilan asked hurriedly.
Jiang Yashuang, however, was noncommittal and just smiled and said, "The princess can make her own decision." He glanced at the sky outside and said, "It's snowing again, I should go back home."
"You've delayed me, young general. Please go slowly, young general." Qiu Yilan walked him to the door, watched him mount his horse and leave, turned around, his face darkened, and ordered, "Shopkeeper He, you stay and take care of things. Here - go get the medicine for grandpa later, it doesn’t matter if it’s broken, just bring some! Others, follow me to the Xihe Palace later!”
Su He said in surprise: "Princess, our things are still unpacked at the General's Mansion! Why do we have to go back to the Prince's Mansion?"
"Who said I was going back?" Qiu Yilan said coldly, "I was going to ask my good uncle and aunt why they were so ruthless and ruthless, even killing my grandfather's life-saving medicine! Why do they hate my grandmother so much? Even my grandfather is angry?"
"Ah!" Su He exclaimed, "Your Majesty and the others?!"
"Princess, these are all prepared for the old general." As he spoke, He Zifu had already carried several medicine boxes that were covered with footprints and almost falling apart. "Many of the medicines in them are gone!" He lowered his voice. , "But no one found the hidden compartment. The younger one found a few of the least valuable ones, trampled them to pieces and put them in!"
Qiu Yilan glanced at him approvingly: "Don't worry, someone will replace it with the best one for us!"
"I am ashamed of the young master and the princess." He Zifu lowered his head, not hiding the resentment in his tone, "But the reputation of 'Renqingtang' has been accumulated by the hard work of father and son for decades... Xiao Dan Hope, evil will be punished!"
... After Qiu Yilan's master and servant boarded the car and drove away, a small car with oil-filled walls turned out from the corner of the street. The inconspicuous dark curtain was carefully lifted up by a corner. Behind the car curtain, she was wearing a lily bun, gorgeous clothes, and bright make-up. She was as beautiful as the first blooming peony flower, but she was gnashing her teeth: "Shameless bitch! Ruan Lang is so good to her, but she is actually like the Jiang family's The Nineteenth Young Master is hooking up..."
The maid advised: "Princess Ningyi has a marriage contract..."
"Who in the capital doesn't know about Deng Yi's reputation for hating women and good men?" Hua Shen sneered, "I think Qiu Yilan just wants to use Mr. Ruan to get out of this marriage! Otherwise, why would she not go back to Xihe Palace during the New Year instead of staying here? General's Mansion! ? Ruan Lang was good to me, why didn't he help that bumbling Penglai Yue this time? It must be that Qiu Yilan was jealous of Ruan Lang and me. You said something bad about me!"
"I originally thought that Ruan Lang would come over, so I specially dressed up and waited here... But if I found out that Qiu Yilan was hooking up with Ruan Lang on Jiang Jiu's back, it wouldn't be a wasted trip!" Hua bit her lip deeply, "First of all, Go back and think about how to deal with her - you dare to steal a man from me!"
Just because she was sending Jiang Yashuang out, a malicious "love rival" appeared inexplicably. Qiu Yilan didn't know about it at the moment, and of course she didn't care about Hua Shen Qian.
She was explaining the reason for her trip to Su He, Chun Ran and others in the carriage: "The king of Zhou intervened in the affairs of 'Renqingtang' today. General Jiang's intervention is an exception. He may not interfere in the future."
Su He, Chun Ran and others all said nervously: "What should we do?!"
"So we are going to the Xihe Prince's Mansion now!" Qiu Yilan looked solemn, "General Jiang refuses to stay involved in this matter because it is my cousin's private matter! It has nothing to do with the Jiang family! I want him to continue to take care of it. , then this matter must be related to the Jiang family!"
Su He was at a loss. Chun Ran and Xia Ran were two years older after all. They followed Ruan Qingyan from the far south to the capital and saw a lot along the way. At this moment, his mind changed. Chun Ran asked tentatively: "Princess Princess said, now If we go to Xihe Prince's Mansion, we can get something involved with the Jiang family?"
"Not bad!" Qiu Yilan sneered, "'Renqingtang' has been slandered, its signboard and shop were smashed, and even my grandfather's medicine was damaged like this -"
She pointed to the box that the maids were holding carefully so as not to fall into pieces. "King Zhou just denied that he smashed it. Of course he would not admit that he instigated the family to cause trouble... but that family would never You came to Renqingtang for no reason, right? There must be a reason! The reason is that Qiu Mengmin is instigating this!"
Su He subconsciously said: "But what if that family doesn't admit that it was the prince and the others who were the instigators?"
"So I just asked General Jiang for advice!" Qiu Yilan snorted, "Jingzhao Yin Feng Rugui is a member of the Jiang family. General Jiang asked King Yan to agree to hand over the case to him for trial. If he joins the family I can't even get a confession out of him, so the Jiang family has promoted him as a minister in vain! Since General Jiang has acquiesced in my doing this, he will naturally prepare it for us!"
Chun Ran and Xia Ran looked at each other, refreshed and said, "What should the maids do?"
Su He angrily said: "Old Mrs. Fan at my aunt's place, and old Mrs. Sun in charge are not good people! They used to bully the princess - I must teach them a lesson this time!"
"Mother-in-laws, don't be in a hurry. After taking care of the master, what are a few servants?" Qiu Yilan reached out and touched Su He's little head and said, "Qiu Mengmin is my uncle after all, even if I want to beg my grandfather for a It's fair, and he can't let him catch me being disrespectful... So this time, let's be polite first and then fight!"
Su He hurriedly asked: "What does it mean to be polite before fighting?"
"Be polite when in front of others; be polite when behind others!" Qiu Yilan said decisively!
