Chapter 144 Repeating the Same Mistake
"ah???"
"He's a pervert!!"
When Pu Qiongzhi told Yan'er and Chunjing about this, they both looked disgusted.
"This isn't abnormal. This kind of thing is rare and I'm not surprised by it!"
"I just think this person is being coy and has to make others guess what he's thinking. That's really dishonest!"
The more Pu Qiongzhi thought about it, the more unhappy she felt.
It's just some rouge and powder, little things like that, she has given away so many of them to guests.
She thought it was no big deal, thinking that he was going to ask for an exorbitant price or make things difficult for the Pu family!
In the end, it was this kind of thing...
So what was the point of her making such a big fuss to prepare for the response?
It makes me feel suffocated just thinking about it.
"...Haha, Madam is well-informed. He's already in that state, you should just let him go." Yan'er advised, with a somewhat forced smile.
Pu Qiongzhi glanced at the little girls.
"Others can do whatever they want! We have no right to interfere. It's their freedom. But please don't affect the Pu family's business!"
"But then again, what exactly does the Northwest Yin family do? This Yin Shuyu... forget it! I won't talk about him anymore! It's so annoying!"
Pu Qiongzhi reached out and punched the pillow beside her.
"My lord, you have dealt with the matter of Ning Fangfei and Peng Mingxuan. The Peng family can no longer touch Madam Ning." Chunjing reported to her what was happening in the capital.
"It's just that officials won't investigate unless the people report it. Ning Fangfei didn't make things difficult for Peng Mingxuan. We dealt with her for temporary convenience, but I'm afraid we won't be able to cooperate with her anymore." Pu Qiongzhi lowered her eyes.
Yan Er paused, "That woman is so innocent, Peng Mingxuan deserves it..."
"Things like this are all their own fault. What does it have to do with us? It's just that it's not easy for women to make their way in the world. Madam Ning is raising Xiaobao, an orphan and a widow. Is she really going to shut down her business?"
Pu Qiongzhi looked at them and said, "If we force them to stay, it will only breed resentment, which will eventually become a disaster."
"If I had kept Ning Xiaobao, she would have known when she grew up that it was me who had sent her father to prison and die."
"What's more, what happened to her parents... I don't know if she can bear this kind of life experience..."
"Things are already complicated enough, and I don't want to add any more."
Yan Er finally understood, "Madam, this is a wicked person."
"My only concern now is Thirteen. This kid's feelings for Ning Fangfei are incomprehensible."
Chun Jing also felt bitter and sighed, "What a sin!"
…
The Ninth Prince's Mansion.
"You mean, that Peng Lang did something like this?!"
"It's over, it's all over!"
Fang Miaozhu was a little overwhelmed and started hitting and smashing things in the study.
She had been in the Ninth Prince's residence for some time, but the Ninth Prince was very busy every day and had no time to pay attention to her.
As a concubine, she was always blocked from going out. Even though there was no mistress in the mansion, she was still bound by rules.
Even if he met the Ninth Prince, there wouldn't be much to say.
Fang Miaozhu felt a little nervous for a moment.
It shouldn't be like this...
She had imagined that their married life should not be like this!
Doesn’t Pu Qiongzhi have fun with His Highness every night?
What method did she use?
The Ninth Prince said that he would let her take charge of the household expenses, but the cards handed to her were not what should be in a prince's mansion!
She had already looked at the account books, and that amount was just enough to cover the daily expenses of the Prince's Mansion!
There are even situations where she is often needed for financial support.
Originally, her doll shop and Yuelai Inn were handed over to the Ninth Prince to manage, and even her bookstore was closed.
But she still kept her eyes on it.
She did not break off her relationship with the bookstore where she used to write storybooks.
Recently, the Ninth Prince has locked her up in his mansion all day long, and she is still in contact with that bookstore.
The previous business failed, but they discussed a new cooperation.
She finally persuaded Peng Mingxuan to sell the book in the bookstore, but Peng Mingxuan became a pariah overnight and her business collapsed again!!!
She clearly remembered that Peng Mingxuan played an insignificant role in the book, but he appeared once, and that was later in the plot.
Logically, he should be famous throughout Daliang!
By the way, aren’t he and his wife still the same as the wife running away with the baby?
The more Fang Miaozhu thought about it, the more panicked she became.
What on earth happened!
Outside, Gongsun Huaili heard the noise.
"What's going on?" he asked the servant who was serving Fang Miaozhu.
The servants were also trembling and kneeling on the ground. "Your Highness, it seems that Madam Fang has started a bookstore business. Because Peng Lang was imprisoned, she is furious now..."
"You brought this upon yourself." Gongsun Huaili sneered and asked no more questions.
He told her not to cause trouble again and just to stay in his backyard and work as his aide, but she insisted on disobeying him.
Now that this has happened, she is reaping the consequences of her own actions and deserves it!
"Your Highness, I heard that Yin Shuyu was causing trouble for the Pu family in Lin'an..."
Gongsun Huaili was a little anxious when he heard Wei Jie talking about Lin'an Prefecture. "Why are you talking about it now?"
"What did he do? This damn Yin Shuyu is so incompetent!"
"This prince gave him some respect and recommended him to Lin'an Prefecture because he has some business talent."
"Such a lucrative position, but I never thought he would dare to use it to cause trouble, taking advantage of the power of others!"
"This prince thinks he has an itchy neck!"
"Then what? How far did it go?" He asked with a grim expression.
For some reason, Qiongzhi ignored him a while ago, and now she went to Lin'an Prefecture and suffered such injustice at the hands of his people. If she misunderstood him, then Yin Shuyu would deserve to be put to death!
"Your Highness, don't worry. Lady Wen Shushuo handled the situation appropriately. Yin Shuyu went to the Pu family's shop to cause trouble, but for some reason she was quickly sent away and returned home happily." Wei Jie knew that his Highness valued the Pu family, so he hurried to inform him.
Gongsun Huaili finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, nothing serious happened!"
But he also knew in his heart that this was all due to Qiongzhi's ability, and his people still did something difficult.
Originally he wanted to give her the cold shoulder for a while, but now it seems that he was the one who got the upper hand.
Never mind, never mind. Girls are shy, and she is his beloved, so it’s okay for him to pamper her a little.
When Qiongzhi returns to Beijing, he will spend more time to coax her.
She lost her father suddenly and was helpless and in a panic. He was just the right person to help her out. But Yin Shuyu was making things worse. If he ruined his plans, this bastard would have no chance of survival!
…
Pu Qiongzhi didn't have the heart to think about these things at the moment.
Her first priority right now was to hurry back to Beijing and meet Concubine Ru in the palace!
If there really is something, it would be more reliable to get information from people close to you.
"...That's what happened. What do you think of His Majesty?"
Pu Qiongzhi thought about this matter and had many suspicions, but she decided to ask Nangong Hua.
"You mean, the person who delivered the imperial edict was Ding Quan?" Nangong Hua's expression changed.
Pu Qiongzhi nodded, "What's the problem?"
"Ding Quan is a cruel and ruthless person. He is your Majesty's sharp claw."
"Normally, His Majesty wouldn't let him leave easily, so he only does important tasks."
"Now, His Majesty has asked him to come to Lin'an Prefecture just to confer a higher title on you..."
