The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

Qin Zhun looked at Qin Zeyu and Qin Jiao again, and weakly compromised: "Okay, I promise you."

He said these five words so hard, as if he had killed him half his life.

If he could get the money, how could he bite the bullet and come here? How could Qin Jiu deceive people so much!

The cash in the mansion has been filled by Gu Jing time and time again, including the filial piety given to the second prince to win over other courtiers, the last time for the benefit of the Turkic horse to Yeluluan, and the "House Housewarming" he gave to the second prince. Li" and so on.

The income of those Zhuangzi shops in the mansion is generally received at the end of the year

This time he barely made up, but he could only make up one hundred thousand taels, which was definitely not enough.

Before Qin Zhun came here, he had tried to recover some old debts, but the time was too tight to collect much.

Of course he can also borrow money from familiar relatives, friends, and old friends, but the problem is that he can’t speak. Besides the face of the Hou Mansion, more importantly, if he borrows money from outsiders, wait for the second prince to return triumphantly in the future. So who is the credit? ! Isn’t this from the dragon’s merits to let others share a piece of the pie? !

Moreover, if it reaches the ears of the second prince, knowing that their Qin family has gone to borrow money outside, what would the second prince think?

Qin Zhun wanted to go, so he had money in the long room, and asked his family if it was not a loan, so he came. Unexpectedly, Qin Zhuo's lion opened his mouth, but he could only let her take the knife to his heart. Cut meat.

If the merchant houses and sea-going ships in Minzhou are sold to other people, the price will be lowered, and it will definitely be more than 150,000 taels! The sea trade and commercial road opened by the Qin family alone is invaluable.

But if he sells it to someone else's family, then he will become a seller and spread to the family, enough to be scolded by someone!

Compared with Qin Zhun's aggrieved aggrieved situation, Qin Jiao was refreshed and smiled again and said: "Then please bring the deed letter from your second uncle. Let's sign and **** it sooner, and we need to send it to Yamen for filing. "

As she said, she paused deliberately, "However, I am not in a hurry. Second uncle also said about the grandfather's hard work, so it is better for second uncle to go back and think about it all night."

Qin Zeyu, who was standing on the side, was neither standing nor sitting. He thought to himself: Is the second uncle going to leave?

Qin Zhun felt his heart dripping blood, as if he had been severely plucked out of a large piece of flesh and pain.

Sea trade is the most profitable industry of the Qin family.

The Qin family’s family had been accumulated over generations by ancestors. Because of the Qin family’s rules, 70% of the family business was inherited. Therefore, the wealth of the Zhongyi Hou’s House did not lose much when it passed to Qin Zhun.

Haimao is the foundation that the old master Qin Xun built step by step after the Hou Mansion was rehabilitated.

Old Houye was exiled in Minzhou for more than three years, and he saw the potential of the sea trade in Minzhou. After ascending the throne today, he strongly persuades Shanghai to ban the sea and develop sea trade to fill the national treasury.

With the help of Mr. Laohou, many merchants in Jingzhong and Jiangnan went to Minzhou to set up businesses, and the first caravan to the sea also included the Qin family. In just a few years, the Qin family relied on sea trade to accumulate A lot of wealth, thriving...

After Lao Hou Yexian left, this property naturally went to Erfang, who inherited the family business.

Qin Zhun's fist was squeezed and released, released and squeezed again and again.

Qin Jiu said that he was not in a hurry, but Qin Zhun was anxious, in other words, the second prince was anxious, the second prince is now anxious to go on a mission to make a contribution, and this money can be sent early to show his sincerity to him.

"No need. I think about it clearly." Qin Zhun resolutely said, and immediately called in the young man waiting under the eaves of the hall, and told him to go back to the house to get the deed paper and account books.

On the same day, the three uncles and nephews signed and escorted them, transferred the three trading houses and four sea ships, and sent the documents to Jingzhao Mansion for filing. All the procedures were completed in just an hour.

After Qin Zhun took the 150,000 taels of silver notes, he didn't want Qin Jiu to say a word, and left with a black face.

Qin Zeyu hurriedly saw off the guests, only to say "forget it." Qin Zeyu didn't bother to put his hot face on the cold **** of others, and watched Qin Zhun leave with kindness.

Qin Jiu felt that he was making a lot of money, and his eyes narrowed with a smile. He looked at Qin Zhun's back outside the hall and said with a smile: "This sale is really good!"

Even if Qin Jiu is new to the ancient business, he also knows that Haimao can make a lot of money. Besides, she can't believe in herself, so she must believe in Golden Thigh. Golden Thigh and Big Brother are pacifying the gangsters in Minzhou. Zhou Yiping is a good time to develop sea trade.

Moreover, the Qin family's sea trade still has a scale, with ships, people, shops, and trade routes. She took over directly and waited for the money to be counted a few days after Minzhou was settled down.

Make a lot of money.

Qin Jiao is quite satisfied with "people sit at home and money comes from the sky".

Qin Zeyu sighed inwardly: His sister is really black! It's too dark, and the intestines must be completely black.

However, it was so refreshing to watch your second uncle deflated.

His sister's business is to hit the spot! Awesome!

Qin Zeyu actually didn't understand some things, but it was inconvenient to ask. Now that there are no outsiders, he directly asked: "Sister, what does the second uncle want so much money for? Is it really for war?"

In Qin Zeyu's view, if the country is in trouble, if it is for the purpose of calming the chaos, it is not a problem to spend some money at home, but you can't make wedding dresses for others.

However, the second uncle just said righteously, in fact, he was obviously selfish, and he also wanted to use the righteousness of the country to "kidnap" their long room.

"Oh, we Ayu has grown up!" Qin Jiao exaggerated with a smile, and explained casually, "I'm afraid it's for the second prince."

Qin Zeyu touched his nose thoughtfully, "The second uncle wants to compete for the merits of being a dragon..."

Qin Zeyu suddenly remembered the time of the separation, and his heart felt like a thunderstorm. He suddenly understood something, "Sister, did the second uncle give a lot of money to the second prince?"

Qin Jiu nodded while eating the cherries: "So, these things are left in the hands of the second uncle. Sooner or later they will be harmed. It is better for us to bring them back."

Qin Jiu flipped through the account book casually, looking like a money fan, and his eyes were shining like black gems.

"San Jie," Qin Zeyu leaned over and looked at Qin Jiao with a drooling face, "I heard that a new restaurant has opened in the west of the city. How about a good meal today?"

"Go! My treat!"

The Qin family’s sisters and brothers went out to have a big meal together. On the other hand, after Qin Zhun left Qin Mansion, Qin Zhun went to the Second Prince's Mansion non-stop, and sent the total of 250,000 taels of silver he had collected. Of course, the silver was still far away. Not enough to suppress the bandits, Cheng En Gong and others did not sit idle, raising money everywhere.

On the fifth day, Cheng Engong asked the emperor in the morning:

"The emperor, the Jinzhou bandits are in chaos, the people are not living, the ministers are also worried, and they are determined to contribute to the court. In the past few days, the courtiers have generously donated money, and the ministers have raised five hundred thousand taels of silver."

"Also ask the emperor Enzhun to send troops to quell the bandits in Jinzhou and return me to a peaceful and prosperous age."

Cheng Engong said impassionedly, and he waited with bated breath as a virtuous minister for the country and the people.

The other courtiers around had different expressions. Some looked at the emperor with scorching eyes like Gong En Gong, some felt that Gong En Gong was generous enough, some waited calmly, and some thought of the emperor in their hearts... …

The emperor deserves to be very refreshed: "Since you are so worried about the country and the people, I am also pleased, and I promise."

Cheng Engong breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to the emperor's continued words: "Telling my will, the second prince will be the prison army, and Wang Lishi will lead the 30,000 middle barracks forbidden troops to Jinzhou to suppress bandits."

It's done! The corners of Cheng En's mouth were cocked. They were not surprised that the emperor sent Wang Lishi to lead the army. The second prince had never led a soldier. The emperor must send a military commander as the commander. Zhouping, this credit belongs to the second prince!

On the same day, the official imperial decree, Qin Zeyu, who was walking outside with his friends, knew it for the first time.

He also understood the reason why the second uncle was so eager to cash out.

Qin Zeyu thinks that his sister is still smart, this trick is so beautiful to take advantage of the fire!

The silver is in place, everything is easy to handle, and the Ministry of War moves quickly. On the second day of June, the grain and grass go first. Then, three days later, the 30,000 imperial army in the Chinese army camp is out of the camp, and the second prince Gu Jing and Wang Lishi set off in a mighty manner. To Jinzhou, the emperor ordered the Prince Li to see off the army on his behalf.

This incident shocked the entire capital, and the people also went to the army to see them off, wanting to see what the rumored second prince looked like.

The problem of banditry in Jinzhou has been troubled by the emperor for nearly a year, and the problem can be solved without a penny, and he is happy to chat with Queen Wei for several days.

Then, within a few days, Empress Wei from Qin Jiao, who had entered the palace to please her, knew that she was "black eating black" and happily relayed it to the emperor.

emperor:"……"

After a brief astonishment, the emperor sighed: "Lord Houye's wiseness seems to have been given to Xiao Jiu." Look at the appearance of the brothers Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu, they are both desperate bastards.

Queen Wei felt happy thinking about her little niece, but she was a pity that she couldn't give birth to a little padded jacket.

She took a sip of tea, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "The emperor, Xiaojui will be ready next month. It was a good thing to split the family, but now that it is so, what should Xiaojue's and Yanli do? Do? Zening and Zezhi are still in Minzhou."

You can't take your niece into the palace. If she really does this, she must have an emissary hit the pole.

So on this day, Qin's Mansion welcomed the two elders from the palace, who were picked up by Xiao Kouzi himself, "Ms. Qin, Empress Empress specially ordered Mother Li and Mother Miao to take care of the girl's gifts. "

Qin Jiu just remembered that she was about to be fifteen years old. In ancient times, for a woman, the wedding ceremony was the most important day except for the wedding.

Mother Li and Mother Miao smiled and saluted Qin Jiu. They all knew that Empress Wei loved this niece, so they were all polite and smiling. They said one word to you and one word to me:

"Ms. Qin San, don't worry, and the honorable guests and admirers, the Queen Empress will make arrangements. If the girl has any good girls, you can invite you to be your secretary."

"Niang Niang said, after the girl's gift, this wedding will also be on the agenda."

"By the way, the maidservant and Madam Miao came this time, and the empress also told me to tell the maidservant to also talk to the girl about the ceremony of the wedding."

"If the girl doesn't understand anything, just tell the slave and maidservant, don't be polite."

The two mothers babbled and talked, making Qin Zhuo a little confused.

Wedding date? ! She is only fifteen years old!

By the way, it seems that most women in ancient times got married after getting married, so she is about to marry?

Why is this so untrue? !

Qin Jiu's mind was a little confused, he almost didn't pinch his thigh, nor did he understand what the two mothers were saying.

By the time Qin Jiu recovered, the two mothers had already measured her size.

After the mothers’ science popularization, Qin Juo realized that He Jinli had to change into three clothes, a total of four. The dress style was decided by the Queen Wei, and there were two nurses who helped him and Qin Li did nothing. , Just need to memorize the process of ceremonial ceremony and set some etiquette as the standard.

As a result, Qin Jiao was particularly free.

As soon as she was free, Qin Zeyu was unlucky. He was staring at her homework every day by his sister. When Qin Zeyu was so dizzy with her endorsements, she felt in a daze that she would definitely be able to be a literary and martial artist in the future, and she would be a pillar of the country!

After Qin Jiu stared at Qin Zeyu and finished memorizing an article, he was about to let him go to rest, and a young man came to report: "The third girl, the fifth master, the uncle came from Minzhou."

Both siblings are happy.

Xiao Si presented the letter to Qin Jiu. Qin Jiu could not wait to open the letter under Qin Zeyu's burning eyes. The envelope was very thick, because in addition to Qin Zening's family letter, there was Gu Zezhi's letter.

Qin Jiao's eyes lit up, and he first stuffed Qin Zening's letter to Qin Zeyu. He held Gu Zezhi's letter and read it, with a slight smile on his lips.

Qin Zeyu saw that his sister was so happy, thinking that Qin Zening wrote a letter to each of them, craned her neck and leaned towards her, "Sister, what did the eldest brother tell you? You laughed so happy. We change!"

Qin Zeyu felt that the letter written in Qin Jiu's hand was more fun, and put the piece of silk paper in his hand into Qin Jiu's hand, trying to grab the letter in her hand.

Qin Jiao wouldn't be polite to Qin Zeyu, and gave him a thud directly on his head, "Go!"

Qin Zeyu touched his head aggrievedly, Du Ruo looked at him very funny, and whispered: "This is a letter from my uncle."

It turned out to be a letter from Gu Sange! Qin Zeyu suddenly realized that his elder sister was really hard to serve, can't you say something?

Qin Zeyu obediently read Qin Zening's letter in his hand. He glanced at the ten lines, and Qin Jiao thought about it. For fear of missing a word, he read it slowly and read it slowly.

This letter was sent by Gu Zezhi when he first arrived in Minzhou.

The letter said something about this road. At the end of the letter, he also drew a picture for her. With a few strokes, he drew a man standing with his hand holding his hand. He looked up and focused intently at a tree of red beans. The man’s hair was half covered. Scattered with a hair band tied up, hair and clothes flutter with the wind, light wind and moon.

An ancient poem naturally appeared in Qin Jiu's mind: "Red beans are born in the South."

There is also the last sentence of this poem: "This thing is the most loving."

Jin Thigh is telling her, does he miss her?

So, this is a love letter? !

Qin Jiao's heartbeat was pounding faster, her heart was sweet, like honey, her brows and eyes curled up with a smile, she couldn't help but stretch her fingers to trace the man on the paper.

When he comes back, let him draw a picture for her too!

After a while, she stared at the date on the letter, counting the time and muttered: "It has been twenty days now, and I don't know how the battle is going."

Qin Zeyu had read Qin Zening's letter again, put the letter paper to the side at will, and said, "I don't know if the third sister's Ji Li, the eldest brother can come back. I heard that the sea bandits in Minzhou are particularly cunning. , Always go ashore to grab something and run away, and it's also magical at sea..."

"There's still a month..." Qin Jiu calculated it again, "I guess it's hanging. Forget it, it's just my birthday, I can spend it together next year."

After all, Qin Zhuo is not an ancient person. To her, giving a gift to her is not a big deal, but Qin Zeyu feels that her sister is too pitiful. On such a big day, the eldest brother and the third brother Gu can’t be there. Hey, he has to try Just to support his sister!

Qin Zeyu wondered secretly in his heart, looked at Qin Jiu, and saw that his sister had just said open-mindedly, but at this moment, she frowned slightly and said in secret: His sister really cares, right?

Qin Jiao didn't notice the pity in his younger brother's eyes when he looked at her. She just suddenly thought that she had taken the day too leisurely, so leisurely that she had forgotten to invite you.

After thinking about it, she sent a greeting note to Weiyuan Bo's Mansion and went to find Mrs. Yun Jiao.

Except for Yun Jiao Niang, she doesn't have any particularly good friends in Beijing.

Upon hearing Qin Jiu's intentions, Yun Jiaoniang readily agreed, still a little bit incredulous, "Are you really looking for me?"

Qin Jiu nodded his head uncontrollably, "Really."

She took the post from Du Ruo handily and handed it to Yun Jiao Niang herself, "The post is proof."

Yun Jiao Niang looked at the big red and golden post in her hand and smiled, "Then I will accept it." She couldn't put it down and looked at the post over and over again, "Although my mother has already received the post from the empress, But this one is for me."

She decided to take this post to Qin Jiu's Jiyan Banquet that day.

Qin Jiao: "?"

Only then did she know that Queen Wei had already posted a post to the Yun family.

Seeing that Qin Jiao didn’t know yet, Yun Jiao Niang smiled and said, “Many people have received posts, and they are all written by Empress Empress.” This is the only thing, I am afraid that even many princesses don’t have this. Blessed!

Qin Jiao: "..."

Qin Jiu's heart was warm, and Queen Wei treated her really well.

Qin Jiu didn't really care about the ceremony, but now listening to Yun Jiao Niang say this, she is also a little nervous, and feels that after going back, she still has to ask Mother Li and Mother Miao carefully, what else needs attention .

Yun Jiaoniang smiled and greeted Qin Jiao to eat the sherbet. Qin Jiao took a sip and his eyes brightened.

"Drink it?" Yun Jiao Niang smiled complacently, "This is my cook's secret recipe. I made it to chill. Now the weather is hot. Drink this to relieve the heat."

While drinking the sweet and sour sherbet, Qin Jiu looked around the little flower hall where she was, and praised: "It's really cool here." There was no ice basin, but it was as refreshing as autumn.

Yun Jiaoniang was even more proud, and said, "My father asked a garden master in Jiangnan to specially rebuild this garden. The location of this flower hall is exquisite. It is built near the water, and there are bamboo forests, flowers, trees, and rockery outside. Waiting just to block the sun, so it can be so cool here."

As she spoke, Yun Jiao's expression changed slightly, and she muttered to herself: "Daddy doesn't know what's going on in Beijiang now..."

She was silent for a moment, then raised her head, and quickly said to Qin Jiu: "Although it is a bit harder on the northern frontier, my father said this is better."

"When the second prince was kicked out of the palace, my father was fortunate that my family had expressed their wishes with the emperor early. I don’t know what those people think. The emperor has obviously been very impatient with the second prince, so why are people still unwilling to give up? Go up and bet!"

Ms. Yun Jiao whispered, she heard her maid squeeze a cold sweat for her girl, her girl dare to say anything to Miss Qin San!

Qin Jiu took another sip of the sherbet, and said with a calm expression: "Because of benefits, some people have said that double benefits can make people ignore the law and take risks; triple benefits can make people not afraid of crime. Not afraid of beheading.” (Note 1)

Yun Jiao Niang thoughtfully tilted her crooked head and said, "Actually, this is a bunch of gamblers!"

She felt that she was too congenial to Qin Jiao. It was a pleasure to talk to her. Unlike others, she had to go around a few times for every meaning, causing her to be scolded by her mother, saying that she had a bowel to the end.

Lady Yun Jiao pouted, and drank the whole cup of sherbet in a grunting manner. The maid quickly gave her a new cup, and said to her heart: My girl is also a fool, just like a lady. That said, the girl "sees" people's eyesight and natural intuition!

"Xiao Jiu," Yun Jiao Niang felt that since Qin Jiu asked her to be a secretary, she had handed in her handkerchief, and she called out affectionately, "I am going to Huangjue Temple tomorrow to ask my father for safety, do you want to go together? ?"

Yun Jiaoniang also knew that Qin Jiu's eldest brother Qin Zening and Chen Junwang were now fighting in Minzhou.

Qin Jiao thought for a while, and felt that it was better to go than not to go, and he responded happily.

Yun Jiaoniang was happier, and she babbled again: "Let me tell you, there is a Master Jingfang in Huangjue Temple, and the deal is very powerful. However, Master Jingfang always wanders away all year round, only three a year at most. Months are in the temple. I heard my mother say that he came back a few days ago, we have to go quickly, it’s late, maybe Master Jingfang is gone again..."

She was afraid that Qin Jiao would not believe her, and she told her some anecdotes about Master Jing Fang, which made Qin Jiao very interested.

Qin Zhuo also felt that Yun Jiao Niang was very open to talking, and she was quite agreeable with her, so the two not only went to Huangjue Temple together, got incense, and asked for a visa. A few days later, they also went to dinner and watched the show. , Shopping...

Qin Jiao had to sigh that Yun Jiaoniang is indeed a girl from the military commander's family. Not only did she ride well on horses, but she also had very good physical strength. She walked around ten streets in one breath and didn't feel tired. Qin Jiao told her and took her away. Sit in the teahouse.

Yun Jiaoniang was unable to hide her words. She told Qin Jiu a lot of her own little secrets. The two of them kept coming and going, unknowingly, Qin Jiu felt that she seemed to have an extra girlfriend in this world.

On June 30th, when Yun Jiao Niang came back and said to introduce a beautiful book to Qin Jiu, the big dresses that Qin Jiu and Yan Li wore were also finished.

The red dress is gorgeous and exquisite. The embroidery on it is made by the embroiderer one by one. The silk material is bright and smooth, and shines like a pearl in the sun, which is incredible.

After Qin Jiao tried the clothes, Mother Miao immediately went back to the palace to find Queen Wei back again: "Manny, the big dress fits well, and Miss Qin San is dressed just right, but the servant girl looks at the waist and can be half an inch smaller here, as well as sleeves. Any further changes will be minor revisions, and the Needle Industry Bureau will definitely make improvements within three days."

"Manny, your eyes are really good, Miss Qin San has white skin, the big red material and the embroidery on this dress match her..."

"The slave servant looked at Girl Qin San and liked it very much."

Mother Miao knew that the queen cares about Miss Qin San, so she said a few more sweetly.

Queen Wei was happier as she listened, and inevitably sighed with regret: "It's a pity, I can't see it with my own eyes..."

The identity of the queen is a kind of honor, but it is also a kind of restraint. If she hadn't married the emperor in the first place, she would be able to personally prepare a gift for Xiaogui and go to the ceremony.

The emperor made a keen shot, always feeling that the queen's eyes were full of disgust when looking at him.

The emperor said with a sense of crisis: "I will accompany you out of the palace on the day of Xiao Jiu and Yan Li."
