258, Chapter 258
Marquis Jinqian looked at everyone in the hall, and when everyone was present, he said with a sullen face: "Today, the wine of Jinqian Restaurant was stopped by Royal Winery. Manager Tu asked, and the manager of Royal Winery said that someone in our mansion offended their boss, so our wine was stopped. I asked directly, who of you has offended someone recently without knowing it?"
Everyone looked at each other, because everyone was guessing that the boss behind Royal Winery was the royal family, so the prince said: "I haven't offended anyone in the royal family recently."
"I haven't."
County Xiangyu: "I haven't, and they don't dare to offend me." But she is the emperor's cousin.
"No."
"I haven't been out recently."
That is to say, everyone meant that they had not offended anyone in the royal family.
Shi Jie said: "In fact, no one knows who the owner of the Royal Winery is. You have to know who the owner is to know that no one has offended anyone. And to know who the owner is, you have to know who the owner of the shop is, and you have to be the Jingzhao Yin."
So, Marquis Jinqian went to Jingzhao Prefecture.
The prefect was not surprised at the arrival of Marquis Jinqian: "The arrival of the Marquis is really a great honor to this humble place."
Marquis Jinqian exchanged pleasantries with the prefect for a while, and then asked directly: "Sir, I know who owns the shop in the Royal Winery. I wonder if you can make some concessions?"
The prefect said very accommodatingly: "It's the emperor. It's the emperor's private property."
This made Marquis Jinqian stunned. In other words, it was the emperor who stopped the wine from the Jinqian Restaurant? Then... was it someone in the Marquis's mansion who offended the emperor? Marquis Jinqian felt that it shouldn't be the case. Who would be so bold as to offend the emperor?
Although he was a little confused, Marquis Jinqian still went to the mansion. Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was waiting. When Marquis Jinqian arrived, the Marquis's wife asked first, "Marquis, have you found out any news?"
Marquis Jinqian said, "The prefect said that the owner of the Royal Winery is the emperor, and the shop is the emperor's private property. So if it's not intentional, the winery should belong to the emperor. Who of you offended the emperor?" Although he asked this, his eyes were fixed on County Magistrate Xiangyu. According to Marquis Jinqian, no one else in their Marquis' Mansion dared to offend the emperor, except County Magistrate Xiangyu.
When County Magistrate Xiangyu heard about her and Yang Haiyan's conversation, she was immediately unhappy. The emperor scolded her for this matter, but he even heard about the wine of the Jinqian Restaurant? But facing the question of Marquis Jinqian, he dared not answer.
Marquis Jinqian snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter if you don't confess now. I will go to the palace to ask the emperor. If it turns out that one of you is guilty, the man will be expelled from the clan and the woman will be divorced." As he said that, he stood up.
"No, father." County Magistrate Xiangyu was frightened and stopped in front of Marquis Jinqian.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes stopped on him.
The prince: "County, it's not you, is it?"
"If it was the county magistrate who made a mistake and offended the emperor, the emperor should punish the Tian family, why punish our marquis's mansion?"
Marquis Jinqian asked: "Xiangyu, how did you offend the emperor? Tell me everything, don't try to spread rumors, I will go to the palace to ask the emperor for clarification later."
County magistrate Xiangyu didn't dare to hide it. After all, the emperor knew it, so what was the point of hiding it? So, she told everything.
Marquis Jinqian learned that he was punished by the emperor because he offended Yang Haiyan, and he didn't react yet. Shi Jie suddenly thought of something, and he said, "Father, I want to talk to you in private."
Marquis Jinqian glanced at him, then nodded, "Follow me to the study."
When they arrived at the study, Marquis Jinqian asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
Shi Jie did not hide anything, and told the process of his acquaintance with Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan: "So, father, this royal winery is most likely the winery of that Lady Bingyun. If it is the emperor, it seems that our wine has been cut off because of this incident..."
It doesn't seem like what a king would do.
Then, Marquis Jinqian asked: "Why would the emperor's shop let Madam Bingyun sell wine?"
Everyone is not a fool, Shi Jie opened his eyes wide: "You mean, this winery is the emperor's share?"
Marquis Jinqian: "Have you forgotten the imperial grain plan? Potato flour and sweet potato flour were figured out by Madam Bingyun, but the emperor benefited from the imperial grain plan. The relationship between the emperor and the Qin family is not simple."
Shi Jie: "What should we do then?"
Marquis Jinqian: "I am here at the mansion of Marquis Cheng'en."
Qin Mansion
Yang Haiyan: "What did you say? Who is here?"
The servant said: "Madam Jinqian and the wife of the son of the Duke of Cheng'en brought the county magistrate of Xiangyu here." The wife of the son of the Duke of Cheng'en is the mother of the county magistrate of Xiangyu.
Yang Haiyan knew what they were doing here, but she wanted to turn them away, but she couldn't. After all, the Cheng'en Mansion is the emperor's family, and the Marquis of Jinqian is a loyal follower of the emperor. Even if the emperor values Qin Fang, the premise is that you can't make the emperor lose face. You can deal with the county magistrate of Xiangyu, or even lose the face of the county magistrate of Xiangyu, but you can't turn away the wife of the prince of Cheng'en and the wife of the Marquis of Jinqian.
Yang Haiyan said: "Please come in."
After a while, Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi, Mrs. Qianhou and Xiangyu County Commissioner came. The first two were polite and had smiles on their faces. Yang Haiyan observed carefully and did not find that there was a knife hidden in their smiles. Xiangyu County, on the other hand, looked nonchalant. Xiangyu County is indeed unwilling to accept it. She is the emperor's cousin, but she wants to apologize to a person who was born as a maid. Why?
I don’t know, it’s just based on my own abilities. The emperor can have many cousins, but Yang Haiyan, who can make money for the emperor, may not be the first one.
Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi pulled Xiangyu County's wife, and then said with a smile: "I have long heard that Mrs. Bingyun is a woman who is not inferior to women. When I saw her today, she really lived up to her reputation. Speaking of which, I made potato flour and After the appearance of sweet potato flour, everyone in the family loved to eat it. ”
Mrs. Qianhou followed: "No, I like to eat."
Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "These are some small things that I make on daily basis. It is really great that the two ladies like them."
Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi said: "Mrs. Bingyun, to be honest, today is the birth of Xiang Yu. This child has been spoiled by me since he was a child, and he did such a mindless thing. , I’m really sorry, I, the mother-in-law, would like to apologize to you first.”
Yang Haiyan said: "Ma'am, you're too polite. What the county did is really mindless. But since the madam is gone and my daughter has apologized, I won't care about it. Madam, don't worry."
The smile on Mrs. Cheng'en's son's face froze. It was true that she came to apologize. What her daughter did was really out of her mind. However, when an elder apologizes to a junior, it shouldn't be in this tone, right? "Yes...yes, thank you Madam Bingyun."
Yang Haiyan didn't care about the other party's face, even if the other party came to apologize sincerely, what he said was correct. The daughter has done something wrong, and the parents should bear the responsibility. This is reasonable. After all, such a daughter is trained by her parents. Therefore, the apology from Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi is acceptable. rise.
When Xiangyu County saw Yang Haiyan talking to his mother in such a disrespectful manner, he immediately became angry and said, "What do you mean by that?"
Yang Haiyan smiled slightly: "I don't understand what the county said. Madam apologized for the county. I accepted Madam's apology. Did I do something wrong? Or should I not accept Madam's apology?"
"you……"
"Mrs. Bingyun is right." Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi held her daughter and said, "Xiangyu, please apologize."
"mother……"
"Sorry, have you forgotten what your father said?" If you don't apologize, your county title will be lost.
A proud person like Xiangyu Xian cannot accept the county's title being taken away. Based on this comparison, then an apology is nothing. "I'm sorry." Xiangyu County apologized through gritted teeth.
Yang Haiyan still smiled: "It doesn't matter."
Mrs. Qian Qianhou: "Mrs. Bingyun, after the new year, we will have a flower party at the Hou Mansion. Then I will ask Madam to show her favor and attend."
Yang Haiyan said politely: "It's my honor to be invited by Madam. As long as it is available, I will come over. But Bingyun doesn't know much. If it disturbs everyone's enjoyment of flower appreciation, Madam, please forgive me."
Mrs. Qian Hou said: "No wonder, in fact, I don't have much knowledge. Before the Marquis, our Marquis family was a merchant. Everyone said that we smelled like copper. I was worried that Madam would dislike it. "
When Yang Haiyan heard this, she felt that Mrs. Qian Hou had some meaning: "The smell of copper is not bad. After all, without money, nothing can be done."
When Mrs. Qianhou heard this, she felt that what Yang Haiyan said was right: "What Madam said is very reasonable."
As a result, Mrs. Qianhou and Yang Haiyan started chatting, while Mrs. Cheng'en Gongshizi and Xiangyu County Commissioner acted as foils.
After chatting for a while, we said goodbye, and Yang Haiyan personally escorted us to the door. After sending them away, Yang Haiyan asked people to leave the Royal Winery and lifted the ban on Qianqian Restaurant. People came to visit, one was the emperor's aunt and the other was Mrs. Qianhou. This face should still be given. .
However, the news about this incident somehow leaked out. After that, everyone knew that although Mrs. Bingyun was born as a maid, she was definitely not someone to be bullied. In addition, Qin Fang was highly regarded by the emperor, and no one with a right mind would come to seek Yang Haiyan's displeasure. There are only a few brainless people like Xiangyu County in this huge capital city.
five years later
In the past five years, the Qin family has been very peaceful. Unlike the men in the original drama, who will be liked by ladies from all over the world, Qin Fang's facial features do not conform to the aesthetics of women in this world, so those mistresses Xiaosi's incident did not happen in Yang Haiyan's life. In the past five years, the Qin Mansion never held any banquets, so their life was very peaceful.
Similarly, due to the pyrotechnics, the border of Qi State was very peaceful, because no other country dared to challenge the power of the pyrotechnics. At the same time, Qiguo went to war against without fire medicine. Because huo medicine was , if Qiguo went to war against fire medicine and launched a war against , if it attracted the alliance of other countries, the gain would outweigh the losses. .
