Chapter 140 Busy



Liu Cuifu told the story in detail.

It turned out that after Sun Chou got into trouble, the position of Dali Temple Minister was temporarily vacant.

The emperor intends to choose one person to promote from Wenxiu and another Dali Temple Shaoqing He Sheng.

Originally, Wen Xiu had a good chance of taking that position, but his competitor He Sheng was no pushover either. He kept an eye on Wen Xiu every day, waiting for him to make a mistake. Not only that, he also checked Wen Xiu's background everywhere.

As a result, he actually found some clues. He followed the clues and found out that Wen Xiu had sheltered a wanted criminal. He collected evidence and reported it to the emperor overnight. Wen Xiu was directly thrown into prison because of this.

Liu Cuifu said, "This man is a big thief who was arrested and imprisoned three years ago. He and my husband are old acquaintances. He saved the lives of my husband's family in his early years. So my husband couldn't bear to see his savior be beheaded, so he secretly destroyed one of the evidences, which saved his life. I thought I could do it secretly, but I didn't expect He Sheng to find out."

"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. It's true that Wen Xiu is shielding the criminal, but if He Sheng really wants to investigate, he will always be able to find clues."

Jiang Muyu frowned, tapped the table lightly with her fingers, and said, "This matter is indeed a bit tricky. Do you know what evidence your husband destroyed? What did the thief steal?"

Liu Cuifu shook her head and sighed, "My husband never told me about this. If it hadn't happened this time, I would probably still be kept in the dark."

"I can't guarantee that I can help you, I can only say that I will do my best. If it doesn't work, I won't force you to take your farm and shop."

Liu Cuifu understood what she meant and nodded, "Thank you, Princess, for your willingness to help."

"You're welcome. I'm doing this for my own benefit."

After returning to the palace, Jiang Muyu mentioned this matter to Liang Qingchen.

Liang Qingchen said: "I have heard a little about this matter."

Jiang Muyu asked: "Do you know what the thief stole? What evidence did Wen Xiu destroy?"

"I'm afraid this matter is not easy for you to handle." Liang Qingchen said: "That thief loved to rob the rich and help the poor. He helped countless people and offended many dignitaries because of this. The evidence of his crime that Wen Xiu destroyed at that time was a gemstone dagger that he stole from the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Jiang Muyu was stunned and asked, "How dare he steal Yu Ci's things?"

"He doesn't care whether the things he steals are given or not. He only steals the valuables."

"Then how did Wen Xiu destroy the evidence?"

"He threw the dagger into the iron furnace and melted it."

Jiang Muyu finally understood, "No wonder the emperor wants to lock him up, it's not unfair."

Liang Qingchen sighed, "So I advise you not to interfere in this matter. Wen Xiu's actions have angered the emperor. If he is not punished, how can the royal family maintain its reputation?"

"Hearing what you said, it's indeed not easy to deal with." Jiang Muyu fell into deep thought.

At night, she lay in bed still thinking about it. The more she thought about it, the more awake she became. She tried desperately to review the contents of the original text.

Liu Cuifu is a minor character who is used as a water character. Her only role is to cause trouble for the original owner.

She thought about the description of herself in the original text for a long time, and it actually reminded her of something valuable.

Wen Xiu is indeed a man of talent and intelligence, which is why Liu Cuifu had the capital to be arrogant later on, especially since Wen Xiu would be promoted in the near future, which would make her feel arrogant.

The reason why Wen Xiu was able to get a promotion and a raise in the court was due to one incident.

Jiang Muyu really wanted to ask Liang Qingchen right now, but they had been sleeping in separate rooms these days, and she couldn't go and disturb him in the middle of the night.

Ever since that incident, the relationship between her and Liang Qingchen had become somewhat subtle. They had meals together every day, maintaining a superficial harmony and respect for each other, but they were no longer as close as before.

In fact, both of them understood where the crux of the problem lay, but they were just unwilling to talk about it.

"Forget it. I'll ask you tomorrow." Jiang Muyu turned over, forcing himself to put aside all distracting thoughts and sleep peacefully.

The next morning, when Jiang Muyu was about to look for Liang Qingchen, he was told that he had already gone to court.

She had no choice but to take care of her own things first.

She has been going to the snack shop every day these days, not for any other reason but for the interview.

Since the salary she offered was relatively high, a lot of people came for the interview. For several days in a row, there was a long line in the shop waiting for her interview.

This time she not only wanted to recruit errand boys, but also dim sum chefs. Jiang Muyu looked at them one by one and found that dim sum chefs were relatively easy to recruit. She just needed them to bring their own cakes for her to taste.

The situation for errand boys is much more complicated. First of all, we look at their appearance, and then their cultural level and their words and deeds.

The main requirement is that the height must be over six feet. According to the calculation method of Tianqian Kingdom, six feet is about 1.8 meters in modern times.

The facial features are regular, which basically depends on her aesthetic taste. The other is the cultural level, which only requires literacy. After all, not everyone has the conditions to go to school in this era, and being able to recognize basic characters is already very good.

In the end, of course, it’s all about words and actions. An employee who is eloquent and has high emotional intelligence can bring unexpected benefits to her shop.

Because yesterday's wedding banquet was postponed for a day, she had more people to interview today. She was so busy that she even had a quick lunch.

It was not until dusk that she finally finished interviewing the last person. She quickly told Yunyan to close the shop and take down the recruitment notice on the door.

Yunyan has followed her to interview hundreds of men in the past two days. She has seen all kinds of men, which completely refreshed her cognition.

After this incident, she found that she had almost no feelings for men anymore.

After Yunyan opened the recruitment notice, she crumpled it up and threw it into the paper basket. When she came back and saw Jiang Muyu's exhausted face, she said with some heartache: "Your Majesty, why are you doing this? These things can obviously be handed over to the subordinates to do."

Jiang Muyu patted his shoulder and said, "I have nothing to do anyway, so I won't ask others to do anything I can do myself. After all, the people I choose are the ones I need, so of course they have to suit my own preferences."

"Well, has your Majesty chosen the personnel?"

"Well, today is the final round of interviews. I have selected 32 people."

"So many?"

"A lot? I own several shops that need errand boys."

Yun Yan suddenly realized, "So your Majesty is planning for other shops. No wonder you have been busy for several days."

"Of course. Why go through so much trouble when you can get it done once and for all?"

"Your Majesty is right."

The master and servant packed up and set off back to the palace.

As soon as she arrived at the gate of the mansion, she happened to meet Liang Qingchen who had just dismounted from his horse. She was too lazy to wait any longer and asked directly, "Is the emperor worried about the flood in Jiangnan?"

Liang Qingchen was stunned for a moment and looked at her: "How did you know about the victory report we just received today?"
