Chapter 192 Catching the Spy



Eunuch Fu frowned. "That seems to be the meaning. Considering the recent series of things that Da Sheng has done, it really seems like that."

The emperor narrowed his eyes in thought, pacing back and forth in the room. Then he said thoughtfully, "But when it comes to sowing discord, the empress dowager has said the most."

He couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it anymore.

He collected his thoughts and began to give orders about the real business.

Jiang Mengli returned to the clinic after leaving the palace, but unexpectedly Bai Chenhuan was waiting inside.

"Hey, Master Bai, what a rare guest you are."

Bai Chenhuan bowed and said with a gentle and elegant smile, "We are all old friends, not rare guests. I came here to get medicine. It's just spring, and I caught a cold and started coughing."

It's natural to be happy when business comes to you.

It just so happened that she didn't have much money left, and she had basically used it all to buy food and supplies.

The silver note obtained from the black-robed man yesterday was also given to Lord Duan and included in Wen Mohan’s military expenses.

Jiang Mengli took out two bottles from the medicine cabinet and handed them to him, "The old price is three thousand per bottle."

Hearing this, Bai Chenhuan smiled helplessly, "You are blatantly charging me a high price. Since you cured the cold poison, I will accept it no matter how high the price is."

For him who is not short of money, life is more important.

When there was no way to cure it, he thought that as long as it could be cured, he would be willing to spend all his money, not to mention that Jiang Mengli did not let him go bankrupt.

You can earn money if you lose it, but if you lose your life, you lose everything.

Jiang Mengli smiled and said, "It's called a fight between two people. The money you earn from Xianglu is enough to buy medicine. You won't lose out."

Hahaha……

"It's really worth it." Bai Chenhuan took out the banknote and handed it to her. "I know you are short of money now, so there is no need to change the extra money."

She took the banknote and looked at it, and found that she had been given one thousand taels too much.

Just give her as much as you want, she won’t be embarrassed to accept it.

"Master Bai is very generous, so I will accept it. The extra money can be used to buy more medicinal herbs, which can also be considered as helping you accumulate merit."

Bai Chenhuan continued chatting for a while, and then he said goodbye and left after a servant came to find him.

At this time, there were more patients and she was busy getting medicine.

It was already noon when they finished their work, and He Yu brought the food on time.

Jiang Mengli was so hungry that he sat in the clinic with his back to the street and started eating. "By the way, I didn't go home last night. Did my grandmother say anything?"

He Yu poured her a cup of tea and replied, "She didn't see you for a long time last night, so she asked about you. I told her you were helping His Royal Highness Prince Yu collect food and fodder."

"After hearing that, she didn't say anything else. She just asked me to leave the door open for you, and then she went back to her room to rest."

Jiang Mengli was choked and felt a little better after drinking a cup of tea. Not long after, she finished a bowl of rice.

She put down her bowl and chopsticks, took out a large bag of silver, handed it to He Yu, and said, "Give it to my grandmother and ask her to go to the Jiang residence to pay the workers. Today is the day to pay the wages."

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes were drawn to the figures on the street.

She was familiar with that figure; it was the man in black robe with whom she had done business yesterday, followed by four men in short cloth shirts.

Jiang Mengli said hurriedly, "You can go back after A-Gump finishes his meal. I have something to go out for."

Without waiting for He Yu to speak, she had already left, following Jiang Yan not far away.

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Yan appeared in the teahouse in a black robe, and then pushed open the door of the private room he had booked.

There was no one inside now, so he went in and sat down to wait.

The door was not closed. The waiter placed tea and cakes on the table. "Sir, please enjoy your meal. Please let me know if you need anything."

Jiang Yan was still covered tightly, with only a pair of eyes showing. He nodded lightly and let him leave.

He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually a little nervous and panicked, and was very afraid that he would really be poisoned to death.

Two big men were standing outside, and two more big men were standing at the door.

The waiting process was very painful and I felt a little restless.

After an unknown amount of time, a pot-bellied man appeared in the teahouse. He glanced around cautiously and then asked the servant who was coming towards him, "How many people?"

The servant responded in a low voice, "Don't worry, sir. Jiang Yan brought four men with him, no one else."

Hearing this, the man went upstairs with confidence.

When Jiang Yan meets people on weekdays, he always brings four subordinates with him.

He thought that this meeting was about competing with the court for food, so he went to the appointment without thinking much.

But he has always been cautious and careful, and he would not meet any strangers around Jiang Yan.

When I went upstairs, I saw the open door and Jiang Yan sitting inside.

"Sorry for the long wait." He walked straight into the room and the servant quickly closed the door.

Jiang Yan stood up and bowed, "Please take a seat, sir. I haven't been waiting too long. I met you today to share some good news. The other party has agreed to sell it to us and has already moved some of the grain last night."

In the next room, the emperor looked through a small hole.

But he only saw a fat back, so he immediately called Eunuch Fu to take a look.

At this time, the man laughed heartily, and it was obvious that he was very happy. "Yes, although the price is a bit high, as long as it can make them have no food to buy, it is worth it."

"To avoid any further complications, all the food must be moved over tonight. Tomorrow, the food will be shipped in batches. We'll hire the best escort agency, the Tu Family. Price is not a concern..."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards the window with his hands behind his back.

It was also at this time that Eunuch Fu finally recognized this person. His eyes widened in shock, and he even staggered back a few steps, almost falling.

"Yes, yes, yes..." He was speechless for a long time.

Upon seeing this, the emperor immediately leaned over to take a look.
