MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 81 banquet

In a Linhe tea shop in the south of Yangzhou City, a middle-aged man dressed in a gray cloth gown with a face full of stubble asked for a pot of second-class tea and sat in an inconspicuous corner of the hall.

During this period, the teapot had been filled with water three times, and the tea had been washed to the ground and tasteless, but he still drank one by one.

This man is the Fourth Master Qin who disappeared for a while.

Qin Siye went to Jiangnan to collect grain some time ago, but he had already missed the best time to buy. Due to the flood in the south of the Yangtze River, the grain harvest was already poor. All the gentry seemed to have heard the wind in advance and seized the opportunity. When the fourth master of Qin started to buy, the price of grain had more than doubled compared to the beginning of the year, and the supply of grain was in short supply.

After several times of tossing and turning, Qin Siye finally got 250,000 stone grain with 400,000 taels of silver, and the silver in his hand not only bought grain, but also had to manage, manpower, freight, warehousing, seven-seven-eighth-eight, to him. His pockets were almost empty.

However, he finally got the food, and when the floods and food shortages became more serious, he would sell twice the food, Qin Siye had his wishful thinking.

Without waiting for Qin Siye to be happy for two days, the above suddenly strictly investigated the hoarding, and his granary was not spared. However, the government still left room, and did not directly confiscated the grain from them, but bought the grain at the price at the beginning of the year.

The 250,000 stone grains in Qin Siye's hands were forcibly purchased by the government for 50,000 taels of silver. For 400,000 taels of goods, only 50,000 taels were sold. This is a real robbery.

Qin Siye wanted to cry without tears, but he had no choice but to endure it.

And in Shangjing, the shop Zhuangzi, which was mortgaged to Yu Qingfeng, should be redeemed with what?

Qin Siye did not know how to represent Qin Wen, took the remaining 50,000 taels of silver, went to Jingzhou, and spent the whole day in the casino, trying to turn the book.

But in the end, he still lost everything, and he even managed to collect the ancestral jade pendant when he returned to Yangzhou.

In the tea shop, no one recognized the man in the corner as the fourth master Qin who used to be high-spirited. Everyone was chatting excitedly for themselves.

"The prince came to Yangzhou, have you ever seen the true face of the prince?"

"I heard that the Crown Prince lives in the first garden in Yangzhou City, Liuyuan. The guards who go out for the Crown Prince are on the third floor and the third floor. Where can I get this honor. But His Royal Highness's style, tsk tsk..."

"I heard that Liu Yuan is owned by Boss Yu Qingfeng Ji. Is this Boss Ji climbing up the crown prince?"

"Your news is lagging behind. You haven't heard of it. Yu Qingfeng's boss is actually the Zhaoren County Lord of Shangjing. It is estimated that the relationship between the Zhaoren County Lord and the Crown Prince."

"Tsk tsk, this time in Yangzhou City, the nobles gathered together, the Crown Prince, the Zhaoren County Lord, and the young lady from the Zuoxiang Mansion. I heard that the lady of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion also returned to Yangzhou, it was really lively."

"Yeah yeah…"

The fourth master of Qin in the corner was extremely shocked. The action of pouring tea was frozen there, and he didn't even notice that the cup of tea overflowed on the table.

Yu Qingfeng is actually the owner of Zhaoren County?

Then... Zhuangzi, the shop mortgaged to Yu Qingfeng...

------

The Qin family had an unassuming house in the east of Yangzhou City. At this time, Song Mei was sitting in the courtyard and was devastated, and the servants rushed in.

"Madam, the fourth master of Qin has been found, and he has entered the mansion."

Song Mei stood up immediately, surprised and happy in her heart.

In the main hall of Qin's house, Song Mei sent the servants back, and immediately asked the unkempt Fourth Master Qin:

"Fourth Uncle, where have you been these days?"

Qin Siye sat down and took a sip of the tea that the servant had just made. The tea in his mouth was fragrant and sweet. He had not used such good tea for many days.

Fourth Master Qin put down the tea cup and looked at Song Mei who was sitting back in the chair opposite.

"Do you want to leave with me?"

Song Mei's expression changed, what happened?

Is it?

"Where is our grain, and where is our silver?" Song Mei asked anxiously.

Fourth Master Qin lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Song Mei felt even worse when she saw the Fourth Master Qin like this.

"Fourth uncle, hurry up and say it."

Fourth Master Qin took a deep breath and sighed:

"It's gone, it's gone."

Song Mei stood up suddenly:

"What do you mean? What's gone? Money's gone? Or food?"

Fourth Master Qin sighed again, and reached out to hold the tea cup, but before he could enter it, the tea cup was snatched away by Song Mei who hurried over.

Song Mei could no longer care about the hot tea and wet clothes. She quickly put the tea cup back on the side table, looked at Qin Siye, and asked:

"Fourth uncle, what happened, you can tell us what happened, and we can discuss it."

Fourth Master Qin lamented in his heart, how can we discuss this matter...

Fourth Master Qin recounted the circumstances of these days to Song Mei.

In just a cup of tea, Fourth Master Qin finished his experience in Jiangnan.

------

Song Mei almost fainted after hearing this. Fourth Master Qin caught Song Mei with quick eyes and brought Song Mei into his lap.

Song Mei's face was full of sadness, but she couldn't say a word.

Fourth Master Qin held Song Mei's hand on his lap and whispered:

"Right now the boss is busy dealing with the flood, and has no time to manage the food. However, I'm worried that the boss will settle accounts after the fall. At that time, I'm afraid Wenzheng will be involved."

"What?" Song Mei raised her head in panic.

Fourth Master Qin squeezed Song Mei's hand lightly, looked at Song Mei's eyes filled with water mist due to his shock and anger, and tentatively opened his mouth:

"Mei'er, do you want to come with me?"

Song Mei opened her mouth. She didn't expect the fourth uncle to have such a proposal. The matter has reached this point?

"I'm Mrs. Xiangfu now, so why should I leave? I'll sell some jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, and redeem the shop. We're doing business..."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to redeem it again." Fourth Master Qin avoided Song Mei's eyes. Song Mei was afraid that he hadn't gotten any news from the outside.

"What do you mean?" Song Mei felt bad, how could this be worse?

Qin Siye felt that this matter was a bit difficult to explain. He cooperated with Yu Qingfeng, but he did it all, but he didn't know that he had been tricked. But now, there is still something I don't understand. Back then in Shangjing, the owner of the casino recommended him to go to Yu Qingfeng for mortgage, which is to introduce him into the trap step by step. It's ridiculous that he has never been able to find out the details of Yu Qingfeng.

Qin Siye looked back at Song Mei, and still opened his mouth to tell the fact that they were all unacceptable.

"Yu Qingfeng's master is Qin Yan, the master of Zhaoren County."

Song Mei…

What Yu Qingfeng?

Song Mei suddenly remembered something and was shocked.

"The bank where we mortgaged Zhuangzi? Yu Qingfeng? Qin Yan?"

Fourth Master Qin nodded,

"I'm afraid, from the beginning to the end, she never planned to let us take the shop back."

Song Mei felt sad in her heart, and there was a pool of stagnant water in her eyes, what should I do?

How should this be represented in the same text...

"You said that Wenzheng would be implicated? Wenzheng and Ming'er cannot be implicated in this matter..." Song Mei's eyes were filled with tears, and there was a hint of pleading in the eyes of Fourth Master Qin.

Fourth Master Qin felt bitter in his heart, yes, and Ming'er...

"I will leave, let me see Ming'er one last time."

Song Mei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she gently buried her head in Qin Fourth Master's arms, concealing her expression.

"Let me think again."

At the beginning of You, Feng Zhan came out of the prefectural government office.

In front of the frame, Feng Zhan stopped, turned around and asked Song Zhi:

"How is she today?"

Song Zhi had become accustomed to the "she" in His Highness's mouth, and immediately replied:

"The county master invited Yu Qingfeng's subordinates to a banquet in Cangxi Forest today. At this time, there should be a banquet in the garden."

At this moment, an inappropriate female voice came in from a few steps away.

"His Royal Highness, but I also received news from my grandfather."

There was a little anxiety in this voice, it was the second miss of Zuo Xiangfu, Wang Jingyan.

Wang Jingyan has received the news of her grandfather's death today, and her father asked her to return to Beijing immediately for the funeral.

Wang Jingyan thought of her grandfather, who was not also the grandfather of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but also the current state husband. Then, His Royal Highness should also return to Beijing. She knew that His Royal Highness was discussing matters in the Governor's Office, so she rushed over.

Wang Jingyan was stopped five steps away from the Prince's frame. The guards of the Prince's Mansion were like a formidable enemy to this second Miss Wang. Yesterday, Lord Song explained to them, and we can't let this close to His Royal Highness. opportunity.

Feng Zhanjian frowned slightly and turned to get into the car.

Wang Jingyan hurriedly said:

"His Royal Highness is all going back to Beijing. Can I go with you, grandfather..." Wang Jingyan was interrupted by Song Zhi.

"Please leave Miss Wang Er."

Song Zhi was already very impatient with this man, and the county lord, I'm afraid he hasn't calmed down yet, and this second lady Wang is here to cause trouble.

What's more, His Highness did not plan to return to Beijing at all.

Song Zhi sat in front of the car, turned to the inside of the car and said:

"Your Highness, are you going back to Liuyuan?"

After a moment of silence in the car, the prince's deep voice came out,

"Go to Cangxi Forest."

------

Cangxi Forest, the main hall of Jinhuaxuan.

Qin Yan sat upright.

In the sub-table below sat the officers and their families.

Before the banquet, everyone in charge gave gifts to their masters, or rare treasures, or fresh gadgets collected from all over the world, all doing their best to make the master happy.

On the stage where Jin Huaxuan is facing, an actor is holding an orchid finger and babbling and singing opera, but everyone in the party has different thoughts, but more of them are expectations for the future.

Many of them only knew that there was a master behind Mr. Ji, but only then did they know that their master was actually the master of Zhaoren County, who was born in both the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the Zhenguo Gong's Mansion in the capital at the same time.

With this county owner and the forces behind him as the backing, this gives them more confidence, and they rely more on Yu Qingfeng to act outside.

After the opening of the table, everyone found that the dishes on your seats were not the same, and at the same time realized that the dishes on their own tables were all their favorite dishes on weekdays.

Everyone admires it even more. The master is good at using people and has always been kind and powerful. It is no wonder that the huge Yu Qingfeng can run in an orderly manner, and there is a trend of prosperity.

However, there were several ladies in charge at the table, but they were a little more nervous in their hearts.

It turned out that this master from the family's husband was born so noble and was born so beautiful. I heard that this county master has not yet been married. If he fell in love with his own husband...

There was a master at the table who was active in his mind, and saw that the master frequently set his eyes on the actor on the stage, but the actor was a man. The chief had an idea in his heart. He put down the wine cup and said to Qin Yan who was at the top:

"Master, my subordinate has a theater in Yangzhou. There are many handsome and famous characters in the garden, and they are all clean. Master can go and play when you have time."

The crowd...

Shameless, this is obviously a male pet for the master.

At this moment, at the entrance of Jinhuaxuan, a servant sang loudly:

"His Royal Highness is here."

A tall and straight figure in a dark robe walked into the hall door, and listened to the words of the one who just sat on the table and wanted to present a beauty to their master to play with.
