1438 Crazy, fire prevention, theft prevention, and Yang Yang
Mr. Jing Yang lectured at the Imperial College for three days. The three floors inside and outside the Imperial College were surrounded by people. It was really hard to get a seat. His lectures in Dongling were also very successful. His rich knowledge conquered the students and even officials of Dongling.
In a short time, Mr. Jingyang's name spread to every corner of the imperial city. Restaurants and teahouses were all filled with students talking about Mr. Jingyang. When those students mentioned Mr. Jingyang, they all admired and respected him. However, the person Mr. Jingyang wanted to see most did not show up.
All the people who listened to lectures in the Imperial College were men, so Mr. Jing Yang specially reserved a seat for Feng Qingchen and solemnly invited Feng Qingchen to go.
To conquer a woman, one must first let that woman see his talent and ability. There was nothing wrong with Jing Yang's move, but he happened to meet a heartless woman.
As soon as Jing Yang left, Feng Qingchen threw away the invitation. She was bored, so she went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to watch the Ninth Prince eat, instead of going to listen to Jing Yang's lectures. If Jing Yang wanted to show off his masculine charm, he had to choose the right person.
She is taken, and it is immoral to seduce a married man. Ahem... an adulterer is also a husband.
However, Jing Yang did not give up. He went to visit after the lecture. Unfortunately, Feng Qingchen received the news earlier and had made an appointment with Cui Haoting and Wang Jinling to have tea.
When the three of them were drinking tea, they were not talking about Jingyang, but about Xiling Tianyu's marriage.
The eldest daughter of the Cui family is going to marry Xiling Tianyu as his concubine. The Cui family is completely tied to Xiling, and most of the people and industries of the Cui family are gradually transferred to Xiling.
Feng Qingchen had no way to attend Tianyu's wedding. She had to go to Beiling after the New Year, and it was unrealistic to travel back and forth. Wang Jinling and the Cui family were relatives, but the Wang family and the Xiling royal family did not have much intersection, so Wang Jinling did not have to go. He just gave a generous gift for the sake of the Cui family.
"Qingchen, I heard that you bought some land in the south? Why did you think of buying some land?" Cui Haoting suddenly asked, startling Feng Qingchen: "How did you know?"
Not many people know about this. You can tell from Wang Jinling's expression, "When did you buy land in Jiangnan? How come I didn't know about it?"
Cui Haoting thought that Feng Qingchen intended to develop in Jiangnan and buying the land was just a test. It turned out that Feng Qingchen knew nothing about it.
"Don't you know that there are a lot of fertile fields and land in Jiangnan? Do they belong to the Cui family?" The aristocratic families have money and connections, and most of the fertile fields and land have been divided up by these aristocratic families. It's just that on the surface it has nothing to do with the aristocratic families, the Cui family has a lot of good fields in Jiangnan.
"Ah? The land and farm I bought, they can't all belong to your family, right?" Feng Qingchen was embarrassed. No wonder the other party was unwilling to sell it. It turned out that the other party was not short of money.
"There are two reasons. Your vision in selecting land is very average. Those places are not suitable for planting, so the people below will sell them to you for the sake of King Qing." Cui Haoting took the opportunity to attack Feng Qingchen, but Feng Qingchen didn't care at all. She didn't buy the land to grow crops.
"Fortunately, I didn't pick a good piece of land. If I had forced the sale on your family, it would have been troublesome to offend you." She had experienced how cruel the Cui family was. When she cured Cui Haoting's illness, someone from the Cui family sent an assassin to kill her.
"Is our family so terrible?" Cui Haoting didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had given Feng Qingchen a lot of conveniences recently. The food that Feng Qingchen requested in the early stage was also secretly provided by their Cui family. Although they received silver, in these days, even with silver, they could not necessarily buy food.
"I've experienced that." Feng Qingchen gestured at her neck, reminding Cui Haoting that she almost died at the hands of the Cui family.
Uh… Cui Haoting was stunned and said hesitantly, “What other place do you like? I’ll sell it to you.”
"No, my life is valuable. Don't think of getting rid of me with a few pieces of land." Feng Qingchen secretly hated that he had no privacy. The power of the aristocratic family was too great. No wonder the emperor was unhappy.
These noble families, like the consortium behind the US president, do not directly participate in politics but influence the economy and events, so the emperor has no choice but to treat them with courtesy.
"I'll keep an eye out for you to see what kind of land Qingchen wants to buy." Wang Jinling spoke at the right time to ease the atmosphere between the two sides.
The Cui family's revenge must be taken from the right person. Taking revenge from Cui Haoting will only make the enemy happy. Wang Jinling does not want Feng Qingchen to fall out with the Cui family. Now Feng Qingchen does not have the ability to challenge the Cui family.
"Not for now. The land I have is enough." There were enough troubles for Wang Jinling. Feng Qingchen didn't want to deal with such a small matter, so he asked Jinling to come forward.
The eldest master's face is still very valuable, and favors must be used wisely, otherwise even if she sells out the Fengli clan in the future, she will not be able to repay the favor.
As the year draws to a close, everyone is very busy. Feng Qingchen, Wang Jinling and Cui Haoting are all the ones who have to take charge of the family. They have many things to discuss and cannot meet every now and then.
The three of them took the opportunity to discuss plans for the coming year. Knowing that Feng Qingchen was going to Beiling in the early spring, Wang Jinling and Cui Haoting expressed their greatest goodwill and offered to lend their power in Beiling to Feng Qingchen.
If they give Feng Qingchen one point now, they can take back three points in the future. It is beneficial to everyone, so why not do it?
Feng Qingchen didn't hesitate to accept all the orders, so as to avoid being in the dark when he arrived at Beiling. Of course, it would be best if he didn't have to use them.
When Feng Qingchen returned to Feng Mansion, she heard the housekeeper say that Jingyang had been waiting for her for an hour. Feng Qingchen responded, saying that she knew, "In the future, when Mr. Jingyang comes to see me, tell him that I am busy and have no time to see guests. If you have something important to tell me, just leave a message and I will come to visit you."
"Yes." The housekeeper agreed, but he didn't think that Mr. Jing Yang would come. A celebrity like Jing Yang was busy receiving great scholars and dignitaries from all over Dongling every day. How could he have the time to go to Feng Mansion every day? But...
Things are so strange. Jing Yang comes to Feng Mansion almost every day and waits for more than half an hour each time. Even if he doesn't see Feng Qingchen, he doesn't get angry. He just leaves with a look of disappointment and comes again the next day.
With so many people coming, the housekeeper has softened his heart. Mr. Jingyang is really a good man. It is said that Mr. Jingyang is an orphan and may be able to marry into the Feng Mansion...
However, due to Mr. Jingyang's frequent visits, the news that Mr. Jingyang was in love with Feng Qingchen spread quietly in the capital. Everyone loved to read celebrity gossip, and everyone stared at Mr. Jingyang and Feng Qingchen, wanting to see what would happen next. At the same time, some people were also asking, "Where is the Ninth Uncle?"
Why didn’t the Ninth Prince say a word? Did he abandon Feng Qingchen? But... that’s not right. The Ninth Prince fell ill because of Feng Qingchen some time ago. How could he abandon Feng Qingchen?
There must be something mysterious between these three people!
The gossip fire of the crowd was ignited, and everyone was discussing who would win the heart of Feng Qingchen, or would he still accompany Princess Anping to Beiling as the imperial edict said?
As the Ninth Uncle that everyone is looking forward to, it’s not that he doesn’t care about Feng Qingchen. He believes in Feng Qingchen, but at the same time he is too busy.
After he cleaned up the mess of the Shenji Camp, he began to plan a counterattack. Almost all the remaining people in the Shenji Camp were sent out by the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince did not let go of any suspicious person. He ordered the people from the Divine Machine Camp to infiltrate any well-known force in the four countries and nine cities and assassinate them!
He wants to stir up trouble in the four countries and nine cities. Only in this way can he force out the potential forces. It doesn't matter if he can't force them out. After this incident, at least people can know that there is an extremely secret force in this world, lurking in the dark, waiting for the right opportunity to move!
