Chapter 72 Successful Meeting with the Emperor



Ah Sheng inadvertently looked outside the house, and saw that it was already noon without him noticing.

A trace of loneliness flashed through her heart, "I have to go back. I will come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find you when the time comes."

Sang Luan nodded.

After sending Ah Sheng away, Sang Luan took out the jade token again, held it in her hand, and rubbed it gently with her thumb.

This was the scene Yu Apo saw when she came in.

She lowered her eyebrows and asked, "Miss, this is..."

Sang Luan suddenly stood up and put the jade token back.

The most important thing is to get the imperial edict as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, she didn't delay any longer, estimated the time, and went straight to the palace.

Before leaving, Sang Luan was a little nervous, but when she took out the jade token, no one asked any questions.

She lowered her eyes and her gaze fell on the jade token. It seemed that Ah Sheng had not lied to her.

An hour later.

Sang Luan walked out of the palace and headed quickly towards the Prime Minister's Mansion, with the corners of her mouth unconsciously rising.

She subconsciously reached out and touched the imperial edict in her sleeve.

The whole process went so smoothly that it was abnormal. Even after leaving the palace, Sang Luan still felt a little dazed.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the emperor agreed to her request.

With the imperial edict, it would be easy to deal with Liu Wenxian and others.

Sang Luan didn't meet Liu Wenxian until she returned home.

She couldn't help but feel secretly happy. This was perfect, exactly what she wanted.

She went straight to Furong Garden and hid the imperial edict. The moment she stepped out of Furong Garden, she still felt that it was inappropriate.

He paused, then turned back and put the imperial edict back in the ancestral hall.

No one comes here on weekdays, and the place where she hides is very secluded. If you don't look carefully, it will be difficult to be discovered.

If we talk about the person who comes the most, it must be her.

Sang Luan straightened up, clapped her hands, and felt a lot more at ease.

at the same time.

In Liujia Village south of Shengjing.

"Why is there so little today? Did you secretly hide some?"

Liu Daqiang weighed the copper coins in his hand, frowned, and looked very dissatisfied. Then he raised his foot and kicked the person in front of him hard.

He sat astride the stool with one foot in front of him.

He was holding a jar of wine in his right hand, and his cheeks were stained red.

At this moment, he narrowed his eyes and leaned forward slightly.

In front of him, a woman in plain clothes was lowering her head, her body trembling slightly.

As soon as Liu Daqiang finished speaking, the woman silently stepped back.

She supported herself on the ground with her hands, her fingers digging deeply into the ground. Then, she slowly stood up, still looking down at the ground.

She bit her lip and said, "I didn't hide it."

Liu Daqiang suddenly slammed the copper coins on the table and took a sip of wine. "Normally, I have at least ten coins. How come today I don't even have half of what I usually have?"

He paused, his tone dangerous, "You'd better pray that you're well hidden, otherwise if I find you, I'll skin you alive!"

He picked up a bamboo stick nearby and kept hitting the woman.

Seeing that there was indeed no place to hide the silver and money, he put the bamboo stick aside.

The woman shrank back, slowly raised her eyes, and glanced at the bamboo stick beside Liu Daqiang with some fear.

Her pretty eyebrows were slightly furrowed, she endured the pain

She pursed her lips and said softly, "No one came to take my pulse today, and those who did came had minor illnesses, so I only charged for the pulse diagnosis."

Liu Daqiang gritted his teeth and said angrily, "I'll forgive you for now. If you only get this little back tomorrow, don't blame me for being rude!"

The woman hummed softly, her voice trembling slightly, "I understand."

Seeing that she was quite obedient, Liu Daqiang smiled with satisfaction and put a few copper coins on the table into his pocket.

The money for tomorrow's drinks is settled.

Liu Daqiang's expression softened slightly. "Xiaoling, you know I was very short of money. It was I who rescued you when you were seriously injured a few years ago. That's why you are where you are today."

Tu Ling listened silently.

"I'm not asking you to do anything extreme. I just want you to check the villagers' pulses. Is that difficult for you?" Liu Daqiang took another sip of wine and burped. "Huh? Tell me, what's so difficult about it?"

Tu Ling shook her head, "It's not difficult."

Immediately, he suddenly raised his eyes, looked at Liu Daqiang and said, "But..."

Liu Daqiang frowned, "No buts, how much do you charge for taking my pulse now?"

Tu Ling: "One copper coin."

Liu Daqiang spoke without even looking up, pouring gulps of wine into his mouth. "Starting tomorrow, you'll change it to three copper coins per order, and the prices of everything else will also have to be raised."

This way he would have more money to drink.

Days like that are beautiful.

Tu Ling slowly raised his head, his pupils suddenly widening, "Then no one will come to check my pulse."

Liu Daqiang raised his hand and said, "Then go get some strong medicine and put it in the well water. By the time everyone is lying on the ground, who would care about those few copper coins?"

His eyes lit up, and he instantly became interested. He said to himself, "In this case, three copper coins are not enough. Let's just go for five."

The light in Tu Ling's eyes gradually dimmed. She bit her lips tightly, feeling very conflicted.

Liu Daqiang suddenly thought of something and sat up abruptly, looking at Tu Ling intently.

There was some tentativeness in his tone, "Xiaoling, do you remember what happened before?"
