The Xiangyu County Lady was in a good mood these past two days. The New Year was coming and she finally vented her anger. Speaking of this matter, it was also because Qin Fang was quite popular some time ago.

Qin Fang took office as the commander of the Beijing Suburban Command Camp. Although he was only a fifth-rank official, this position would not be held by someone who was not trusted by the emperor, so Qin Fang was very popular for a while.

Speaking of Qin Fang, it is natural to mention Yang Haiyan. Yang Haiyan is the wife of a second-rank official, and she was born as a maid, so everyone can't help gossiping, some praising her, and some mocking her. But no matter which one it is, the tone is naturally sour. Speaking of Yang Haiyan, the Xiangyu County Lady was mentioned again, and then when the words reached the ears of the Xiangyu County Lady, she was unhappy.

How did Xiangyu County Lord think of revenge against Yang Haiyan? She was not smart, so she thought of sending a concubine to Qin Fang. The revenge of women in the harem was nothing more than this.

Xiangyu County Lord was still thinking of going out to mock Yang Haiyan in a few days, but someone came from Chengen Mansion, and her mother wanted to see her.

Xiangyu County Lord went to Chengen Mansion eagerly, but it turned out that it was not her mother who saw her, but her father, so she was scolded again. Not only was she scolded, but she was also warned that if it happened again, the county Lord's title would be gone.

As for the reason, her father also said that it turned out to be what happened at the gate of Qin Mansion today.

The head of Xiangyu County is not smart, and the woman she found is naturally not smart either. She is a widow. This widow has lost her parents-in-law, and no one in her husband's family cares about her. Her parents' family also wants to marry her to an old man to make some money, so Xiangyu County Lord said that she was here to dislike Qin Fang. They calculated very well. Even if they failed, it would not hurt to dislike Yang Haiyan. Anyway, they would not suffer any loss. And Xiangyu County Lord promised the widow to give her a sum of money.

However, who knew that Yang Haiyan would report directly to the police, and she would not even show up.

After the prefect found out the truth of the matter, he didn't know what to do. He naturally didn't dare to offend the head of Xiangyu County, but he didn't dare to offend the Qin family either. He didn't dare to offend them, so he went to the palace and told the emperor about it.

The emperor was grateful to the Tian family. The Tian family helped him a lot in seizing the throne, and they were also smart enough not to send women to the harem. However, the emperor was also grateful to the Qin family. Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan helped him a lot, and each of them increased his weight in the hearts of the people, which was beneficial to his popularity. Besides, Yang Haiyan helped her make a lot of money. So the emperor was very unhappy about the matter of Xiangyu County Master. Not only was he unhappy, but he was also very disgusted and impatient. If it was an ordinary matter in the harem, the emperor might not be so disgusted, but this person was Yang Haiyan who could help her make money, and then when the two were compared, the difference was not that big.

Therefore, the emperor found Cheng En Gong, his grandfather, and made it clear that if Xiang Yu County Lord continued to do this, the favor of the Tian family to him would be offset by Xiang Yu County Lord. It depends on the Tian family's choice whether the married girl is more important or the children of the Tian family are more important.

Qin Mansion

Although Yang Haiyan knew that the woman was arrested, she also knew the result. After the prefect judged the result, he went directly to the palace. However, Yang Haiyan also knew from Kun Shi's words that the other party was coming for Qin Fang.

For this reason, Yang Haiyan did not say anything. However, when Qin Fang came back from his duty, Yang Haiyan mentioned this matter during dinner: "... Commander Qin is really charming."

Qin Fang: "..." This was not a good thing to hear. He ate his meal in a few mouthfuls, then stood up and said, "I'll go to Jingzhao Prefecture to find out the news." Then he ran away. Qin Fang was afraid that if he was late, his wife would come to settle accounts with him, so he had to figure this out in advance.

Yang Haiyan: "..." This man ran too fast and didn't even give her a response.

Jingzhao Prefecture

The prefect lived in the backyard of the government office. During dinner, he learned that Commander Qin came to visit, and he had to meet him. Moreover, he also knew why the other party came. He had already told the emperor about this matter, and the emperor said he would deal with it, so it was okay for him to tell Qin Fang.

The prefect met Qin Fang in the study. Qin Fang was only of the fifth rank, while the other party was of the fourth rank, so Qin Fang saluted calmly: "Qin has met your Excellency."

Although the prefect did not want to please Qin Fang, he was willing to make friends with such a young commander: "Commander Qin, you are welcome. Please take a seat."

Qin Fang sat down: "Thank you, your Excellency. I believe you understand why I came here this time. I wonder how the girl's matter is going?"

Seeing that he was direct, the prefect did not hesitate. Qin Fang was confused, so he told the truth directly: "... The emperor will deal with the Xiangyu County Lord. As for the widow, because the matter did not work out, I beat her with ten sticks and detained her for a month before releasing her. What do you think, Commander Qin?"

Qin Fang said: "Qin doesn't understand these things. Your Excellency is the parent official. Whatever your Excellency thinks, it's up to you." Qin Fang stood up and said, "Qin is sorry to bother you. Thank you, Your Excellency. Goodbye."

The prefect was going to send him away, but Qin Fang asked him to stay.

Qin Fang returned home and met Yang Haiyan who was walking with her son before entering the yard. He immediately explained: "Wife, this matter is unjust, I was wronged." Then, he told Yang Haiyan the truth of the matter.

Yang Haiyan felt that this matter was a bit disgusting when she heard it. It would be fine if Xiangyu County Lord came openly, but she despised the use of the backyard to cause trouble.

Moreover, she was not a person who would keep silent. She believed that the fight between women would not make the emperor partial to Xiangyu County Lord.

The next day, Yang Haiyan prepared for revenge. She went to find Eunuch Xie and asked him to stop supplying wine to Jinqian Wine House.

Eunuch Xie was shocked. The Jinqian Winery was the property of Marquis Jinqian, and he knew a little about Marquis Jinqian, so he didn't know why Yang Haiyan wanted to stop selling it. So he asked, "Madam, why is that? Jinqian Winery sells a lot of wine from us. It seems that you are a big customer."

Yang Haiyan smiled and said, "Wine is always in demand, and the older it is, the more fragrant and valuable it becomes. As for why ... The reason for not selling to Jinqian Restaurant is very simple, because..." She told the story of County Lord Xiangyu, "I am a grudge holder, but County Lord Xiangyu is the wife of the prince of Jinqian Marquis Mansion. If the prince's wife does something wrong, Jinqian Marquis Mansion will naturally pay for it. By the way, I plan to open a royal restaurant. This is my plan. Please take it to the emperor for review."

When Eunuch Xie heard the name, he knew that this lady was in conflict with Jinqian Restaurant. Jinqian Marquis Mansion naturally has more than one industry, but Jinqian Restaurant is one of the more profitable industries of Jinqian Marquis Mansion. If the lady makes Jinqian Restaurant lose money, Jinqian Marquis will definitely be unhappy. But since he couldn't express his displeasure to his wife, he could only express it to the prince and his wife.

But Eunuch Xie didn't care about these.

Yu's Study

The emperor first listened to what Eunuch Xie said. He knew that Yang Haiyan wanted to take revenge on the head of Xiangyu County. He didn't get angry either. He thought it was normal, but he thought Yang Haiyan was a man of blood. Then, he read Yang Haiyan's plan, the Royal Restaurant plan. Although he also felt that Yang Haiyan was going for the Jinqian Restaurant, he would not stop Yang Haiyan from making money openly. After all... the money was made for him.

So, the emperor waved his hand and agreed.

The wine that Jinqian Winery had purchased was sold out, so they went to the Royal Winery to sell wine, but were told that the Royal Winery would not sell wine to them.

When the shopkeeper Tu heard this, he hurriedly asked: "Excuse me, shopkeeper, why is this?"

The shopkeeper of the Royal Winery did not hide it: "You people from the Jinqian Marquis' Mansion have offended our boss, and our boss does not want to sell to you anymore." The reason why the shopkeeper answered like this was naturally because he had received a rich reward from above.

Shopkeeper Tu wanted to find out more, but he could not find out anything. In response, Shopkeeper Tu hurried to the Marquis' Mansion.

Marquis Jinqian usually doesn't take care of things. The family's business is in charge of the manager. He only checks the accounts every six months. However, since the Jinqian Winery is in the city, he will pay more attention to it on weekdays. Since the wine was launched, Marquis Jinqian has also drunk a lot. The news brought by Manager Tu this time stunned Marquis Jinqian: "We in the Marquis Jinqian Mansion have offended the owner of the Royal Winery, so they don't give us wine?"

Manager Tu said: "That's right."

Marquis Jinqian frowned and thought. Logically, everyone tacitly agreed that the person behind the Royal Winery was most likely a member of the royal family. For example, princesses, princes, and the like, but as a Jinqian Hou, he had no official position or real power, so he never had to attend court, which meant that he didn't have to care about the affairs of the court, so he wouldn't offend anyone.

He usually didn't bully the weak in business, so why did the other party say that?

Jinqian Hou thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out: "Has the person behind the Royal Winery been found out?"

Shopkeeper Tu said: "No, it's estimated that other wine shops can't be found either. Jingzhao Yin refused to say who the owner of the shop is."

Jinqian Hou waved his hand: "You go down."

Shopkeeper Tu: "What about the Royal Winery?"

Jinqian Hou: "Don't worry about it for now."

"Yes." Shopkeeper Tu left.

Marquis Jinqian has made it to where he is today, knows how to buy a title with money, and has fought for the merit of following the dragon. He is not a fool. Moreover, Marquis Jinqian's mansion is rich, so even if a Jinqian wine shop goes bankrupt, it will not affect his industry. But... it's just a bit of face. However, now the Royal Wine Shop openly refuses to sell wine to them, and also says that someone in the Marquis's mansion has offended their boss, so this is not just a matter of industry and face.

Marquis Jinqian was worried that there was some conspiracy behind it, so he called the butler and summoned everyone in the Marquis's mansion to the lobby. He wanted to interrogate them one by one.

Everyone in Marquis Jinqian's mansion was soon called to the lobby, and even those who were out were called back. Just like the Lord of Xiangyu County, who thought he was very great, he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of this eunuch.
