“It should be like this for two days.”
There was Sang Zhi in the palace, and Sifang Mountain was under pressure from all sides. Emperor Beili was really a man who knew the current affairs and was a brilliant man.
The edict was issued faster than she imagined.
"By the way, yesterday the lord of the Earl's Palace summoned her to the palace, but her tongue was cut when she came out. The fifth princess lost a finger, and now she and her consort are both imprisoned in the sky prison."
“It would be too easy for her to just break off one finger.” Huaihua snorted coldly.
Ye Qianning knew about this yesterday: "This is just a sign, Sang Shu will die!"
"She is a princess of a country. Even if there is an assassination attempt, the emperor cannot kill her."
"Auntie, just wait and see. Sang Shu's crimes are not limited to assassination." Fanbang was the key to her life.
Shaoyao was puzzled, but he didn’t ask any more questions. He just said: "Don't expose yourself in anything. The capital seems to be scattered, but if we unite, we should not underestimate it. There are many people lurking under the water."
Ye Qianning nodded: "Auntie, help me get a list of the richest people in the capital, and try to list their preferences."
After entering the capital, it is inevitable to deal with the circle of noble ladies.
“Okay, I’ll sort it out tomorrow.”
“Okay, we’ll talk about other things later. For now, eating is the most important thing. I’ll have someone deliver the food.” Huaihua reached out and patted her: “Sit and wait.”
Ye Qianning looked at the time and sat down. He went to bed too late yesterday and woke up too late today.
I wanted to go to Loushan early in the morning, but somehow I fell into a deep sleep. When I suddenly woke up, I realized that it was almost noon.
Speaking of which, this situation rarely happened to her, and she sighed slightly. Recently, she has been too relaxed when her father is around.
People really cannot be lazy.
After one meal, Ye Qianning was very full, and her aunt's craftsmanship only improved compared to the past.
They had just finished eating and before the table could be cleared, the maid from Siyinfang knocked on the door.
“Master, there is someone coming to Mr. Wu’s house.”
"Let them wait for a moment, I will come right away." Huaihua said towards the door, then turned around and said: "I will go to Mr. Wu's house later to teach his two daughters to learn the piano. What do you think tonight? You'll be back very late, take this jade token, and I'll ask you Qi Yiniang to meet Mrs. An later, and you can mobilize the people in Siyinfang as you like."
"Okay." Ye Qianning accepted the jade pendant: "Auntie personally teaches the piano skills to the ladies of the official family?"
“Originally, she was taught by the piano master from Siyinfang. Miss Wu was overbearing, and the queen asked her to learn piano skills. She couldn’t handle ordinary piano masters.”
“Which Wu family?”
Ye Qianning asked.
"Prime Minister Gao's favorite protégé, he rose from a county magistrate to the imperial court in just a few years. When he first came to Beijing, he worked in a low-key manner. But a few years ago, the queen suddenly found out that Mr. Wu's wife was a long-lost cousin of her mother's family. The queen frequently summoned him. When the Wu family's mother and daughter entered the palace, the queen loved Miss Wu's family very much. As time went by, Miss Wu's temperament became arrogant." Huaihua said and stood up: "I'll change clothes first. If you go out, you must stay with your seventh aunt. Say it so we don’t have to worry.”
"I understand, aunt, please go quickly." Ye Qianning raised her head and smiled.
Huaihua entered the inner room, changed her clothes and gave some instructions before going out.
Ye Qianning knew the officials in the capital fairly well back then, but yesterday she walked around the west and east of the city and found that many of the houses of former officials had had their plaques changed and their names changed.
Only some insignificant officials at that time seemed to have remained undisturbed.
