Chapter 157 Ah Ying starts taking on business

"Your Highness, what is this?" A young man wearing a sky blue robe and a silver crown walked in.

Fang Heming looked at the small carvings on the peach wood fan, and was surprised and delighted: "Prince, who made this?"

"Snap!" Song Jie closed the lid.

Ah Liu said: "This was made by my wife and I."

Song Jie: “…”

Fang Heming didn't notice that Song Jie didn't look very happy, and asked excitedly, "Your wife?"

After thinking for a while, he said, "Is your wife Madam Feng?"

Ah Liu: “…”

"Is that so?"

What does it mean to be so? That is it.

Fang Heming turned around and looked at Song Jie and said, "My Lord, Madam Feng is the...expert I told you about. The magic tools she made are very effective."

His fortune-bringing charm is obviously not as good as it used to be, and he still wants another one.

Song Jie smiled: "So, we already knew each other."

He seldom smiles, but he looks very handsome when he does.

Fang Heming and Gu Changqing were both stunned. Why was the prince smiling for no reason?

Because we already knew each other?

Fang Heming: Who did you know? Are you so happy to know Madam Feng?

Gu Changqing: Tsk tsk, I feel like I have a connection with that young lady again.

He hadn't had dinner yet, but now he was full.

Fang Heming never followed Song Jie because he was in charge of managing Song Jie's business.

Now that Song Jie was going back, he should have gone with him, so he came to Song Jie for reunion.

Now that he had seen the folding fan, Fang Heming had no intention of going back.

"My Lord, I want to stay and do business with Madam Feng. I will go back when I have earned enough money for the trip."

Song Jie narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is the travel fee very expensive?"

"What do you think? Do you know how much money you spent on this trip? Others spent their time and money, but you spent the palace's money."

Fortunately, I didn't spend his money.

Song Jie nodded and said, "Okay, then whatever you want."

Song Jie later went to the palace to bid farewell to the emperor.

The weather was fine, and Emperor Taikang received him in the Qinzheng Tower beside the Taiye Lake.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard ministers arguing outside.

Emperor Taikang looked at Wang Zhen, who went out and came back soon.

He whispered, "Everyone, it was the King of Qin who beat a palace maid to death."

The Prince of Qin, the former crown prince, was imprisoned after Emperor Taikang ascended the throne.

His title was changed to King of Qin.

Emperor Taikang frowned slightly.

Wang Zhen said: "She is a maid who sweeps the floor."

“Everyone says that there should be severe punishment.”

Emperor Taikang said with a calm expression, "My brother, you are not feeling well. Is that not intentional?"

Wang Zhen lowered his head slightly and said, "Yes, the imperial physician has recently prescribed medicine for you again."

"It's just a patient, it wasn't intentional, why punish them so harshly? Just let them go."

"yes!"

After Wang Zhen left, seeing Song Jie sitting quietly, Emperor Taikang frowned secretly, but did not show it on his face. He smiled and said, "These people, the royal family dare not make any move, otherwise they will be punished. My own brother is still a patient, is it not allowed to beat a palace maid?"

Song Jie bowed his head slightly and said, "The saint is merciful."

"It's not mercy, we are all brothers." When Emperor Taikang said this, he stood up, walked to the window, and said calmly: "Axing, those civil and military officials are always outsiders. I trust you brothers the most. In this world, who would be closer to their brothers and sisters?"

Song Jie walked out from his seat, lifted his robe and knelt down: "Your Majesty, please be merciful."

Emperor Taikang smiled and hurriedly helped Song Jie up.

Changing the subject, he said, "You will be an adult in another year, right? What a pity, how could Secretary Li die so young? She was not blessed."

Song Jie said: "If there is a destiny, we will be together naturally; if there is no destiny, we cannot force it."

"I'm glad you figured it out. You're almost an adult. If you see a girl you like, tell me and I'll arrange a marriage for you."

Song Jie said: "Not yet."

"Oh? Wang Zhen said last time that you have a crush on someone."

Song Jie nodded and said, "You are a man, it is not suitable for you to get married and have children. It will make people laugh. You should find a woman who is destined to be with you first."

"Haha!" Emperor Taikang thought that Song Jie had a group of guards behind him, but he had never heard of him being close to any woman, no, except for the middle-aged woman Feng.

I guess he misses his mother.

Tai Kangdi laughed heartily: "How can it be a man? Ah Xing... this is not good, women are better, women are gentle."

Song Jie said without changing his expression: "The man is safe."

"Okay, okay!" Tai Kangdi said, "Liking someone is one thing, and having a family and children is another. There's no delay."

Song Jie nodded slightly: "Yes."

"You will be leaving tomorrow, so have dinner in the palace."

"yes!"

Not long after Li Jidao and Feng Ying saw Song Jie off, Wen Shi arrived with Wang Duan.

"Madam Feng, I'm sorry to bother you by coming here without sending an invitation." Mrs. Wen said with a smile on her face.

Feng Ying said hurriedly, "We are fine. You and Shiqi Niang come here often, which means you think highly of me. I am so happy."

Wen said, "Let's go in and talk about it. It's a big deal."

Feng Ying nodded.

Feng Ying brought Wen to a small hall in the outer courtyard.

Yunniang and A Liu served some desserts. Wen waved her hands and said, "Madam Feng, I came here today to ask you for something."

"I have a friend whose nephew has been missing for two days. He wants you to help find him."

Feng Ying: “…”

Have you started taking on business yourself?

Li Jidao counted with his fingers: [This person should be dead. ]

Feng Ying: “…”

Feng Ying asked in a low voice: "Can you, a handkerchief, accept bad news?"

Wen was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Madam Feng, you are such a wonderful person."

Feng Ying:?

What did you say?

Wen whispered, "To tell you the truth, the husband of my best friend is the second son in the family. The eldest son has a title but has become a monk and doesn't care about anything. The third son is a good-for-nothing who only knows how to spend money."

"Her husband is the co-prime minister of the Secretariat. He is a very upright person. He is the pillar of the country and has always supported the whole family."

"Unfortunately, my best friend only gave birth to three daughters and was not well received by her husband's family. Originally, the old lady in her family wanted to adopt her nephew, but she disagreed. Unexpectedly, the child went missing for two days and did not return home. Now her family members accused her of doing something to the child. She was a little anxious and wanted to find the child back."

【It turned out to be the Chen family, the co-prime minister. 】

Li Jidao knew the Chen family: [The Chen family was very prominent when the previous emperor was alive. Chen Ping had no party or faction and was a practical man. Therefore, when Emperor Taikang promoted Xiao Jingze, he had to use some old people in order to stabilize the court, so he used Chen Yan.]

[Chen Yan's nephew was a drunkard and a whoremonger, not a good person. It turns out he is dead.]

Feng Ying nodded, looked at Wen and said, "Then let me put it this way, her nephew cannot be found, he is indeed dead."

Wen opened her mouth slightly.

Feng Ying thought that what my Ah Jian said must be right.

"It seems quite troublesome."
