"County Lady?"
Yang Zhao looked at one of the bright yellow imperial edicts in his hand, and his eyebrows couldn't help but raise slightly. This was a bit unexpected.
Emperor Wenyuan... is so magnanimous?!
She had thought that Emperor Wenyuan would plan to bring her into the palace, and she had already made a backup plan for this, but she didn't expect... that he would actually give her the status of a county lady.
"Is that person... planning something?" Yang Huaijin frowned.
Yang Zhao shook his head slightly: "I'm not sure yet, but being able to obtain the status of a county lord is not a bad thing."
But Yang Huaijin felt something was wrong.
But he knew very well that if he wanted to completely protect his sister, he still needed to make some efforts.
Thinking about the Spring Examination which is only half a month away!
"Sister, I have to go out for a few days. My brothers are almost gone. While everyone's attention is on the Shen family, I'll go make some arrangements."
"Go!"
After Yang Huaijin left, Yang Zhaocai put the imperial edict back into the box on the table and asked Yiyue to put it away. Then he told Eryue: "Go and ask the shopkeepers and stewards to come in."
Some things need to be arranged in advance.
After all...the reason why Emperor Wenyuan re-employed the Shen family was mainly because of the Yujiang issue.
The Shen family in Yujiang is also a good opportunity for her.

Yunfu Inn.
After Shen Haoyi heard the servant's report, he said with disdain and annoyance on his face, "The Shen family in the capital is really useless. It's just a matter of a woman and a child, but they can put the entire family in jail. How stupid!"
"That's right! If we hadn't walked fast, we would have all been implicated!"
"It's really useless."
"Then what Shen Li said before about guaranteeing that we can all pass the exam and become officials... is it no longer valid?" One of the young masters suddenly asked.
This question made everyone silent.
They came to Beijing... because Shen Li promised that he would help them all pass the exam and become officials.
Therefore, the young masters of the Shen family who came this time were all legitimate sons from various courtyards of the Shen family in Yujiang.
It was only then that they thought of this problem.
Shen Lidu was imprisoned.
Then what about his previous promise?? ! !
Shen Haoyi's face darkened instantly, and he slammed the table: "Damn it, I'm afraid this trip is for nothing!"
The other young masters also looked unhappy.
After all, they had all thought about their wonderful life after entering officialdom, but now they found that their dreams were shattered, so naturally they all looked unhappy.
"Shen Li, this idiot..."
And just at this moment.
A servant from downstairs came up in a hurry: "Master, something bad has happened. Many shopkeepers have come downstairs, saying they are here to collect debts."
"What debt collection?"
Shen Haoyi frowned unhappily.
The attendant swallowed his saliva and said, "It is said that you owed money when you bought something on credit at their store a few days ago, young master..."
downstairs.
There were at least a dozen shop owners waiting at the gate with their account books and IOUs, and many people gathered outside the gate.
When Shen Haoyi and others went downstairs, they happened to see the leader, Manager Xu.
"Young Master Shen, you finally came down. A few days ago, you took away a lot of things from my shop. Our shop is a small business and we really can't afford to delay payment. Isn't it time for you to settle the bill?" Shopkeeper Xu said with a bow, his attitude still quite respectful.
The other shopkeepers were also very polite.
Everyone loudly talked about how Shen Haoyi and others had come to their store a few days ago to take things and buy them on credit.
The people started to talk: "I remember that there were indeed truckloads of things taken away from the store, and it seemed that they were all sent to the Shen family... These people seem to be relatives of the Shen family, right?!"
