Chapter 284 Ye Chen
She ordered Tie Zhu, "Send soone to investigate this woman."
Because the person is in the capital, the investigation is very fast. In less than half a day, Tie Zhu ca to report:
"Princess, I found out. The woman's na is Bai Ruoyun. Her grandfather used to be the servant of the household departnt. Ten years ago, Bai Ruoyun was beheaded for embezzling a huge amount of public funds. The Bai family was confiscated. As a female relative, Bai Ruoyun was sent to the Jiaofang Secretary. She was rescued by Gong Jue, and has followed Gong Jue ever since."
After hearing this, Shen Mingjiao thought of Bai Ruoyun's side profile that resembled Su Qing, and instantly realized that Gong Jue was just playing a double role!
"Bai Ruoyun and Su Qing are relatives?" Otherwise, why would they look similar?
Tie Zhu nodded: "Madam Bai and Su Qing's mother are half-sisters."
Shen Mingjiao said "Oh", "How is Gong Jue recently?"
"I have been sending people to watch, but nothing unusual has been found."
Shen Mingjiao didn't feel too surprised: "Continue to send people to watch."
After Su Qing and Su Huai's party were arrested, Gong Jue, who wanted to get along with the current crown princess, should have been punished by death, but Shuntian Fu Yin felt that he was quite capable, and cherished his talents, so he asked Jing and The emperor asked for orders to transfer him to Jingzhao Yin as a last-class servant.
However, this was not the whole reason for his release. Shen Mingjiao mainly wanted to use her to catch Su Qing,
As long as Gong Jue is not dead, with Su Qing's personality, if sothing happens to her, she will definitely not be able to resist going to find Gong Jue.
…
On this day, Shen Mingjiao was sitting in the courtyard concentrating on drawing blueprints. The Queen's birthday will be half a month away.
The queen has always been low-key, and birthdays are never a big deal, but this year Feng Shuo was found, and the queen has been in a good mood recently, so when Jing and Di proposed to hold a birthday party for the queen, she not only did not refuse, but also released it in advance. According to the news, the wives of officials in Beijing and China are widely invited to participate.
But according to Shen Mingjiao, it is clear that the emperor's wife wants to show the prince a girl. Because of Gu Danxue's sudden suicide, news of her illness naturally reached the ears of Jing and Di. What Jing and Emperor said before that they wanted to marry her and the prince was nothing.
It's just that the emperor's sister-in-law is afraid that her busy work will be in vain, probably because she heard that the prince and Lu Jingshu, the daughter of General Lu, are fighting fiercely recently.
It is said that since the last New Year's banquet, Lu Jingshu launched a fierce offensive against the prince, sending gifts and flowers to invite dinner, and fully using the thods of the male protagonist chasing the female protagonist in various stories.
As for the crown prince, he naturally refused at first, but the so-called female chasing the male interlayer gauze, within a few days, the prince half-pushed and got up.
Every ti she hears such news, Shen Mingjiao will think of the prince's various mindless infatuations with Su Qing before, which always makes her feel confused.
Back to the topic, since the queen is going to hold a birthday party, the clothes for the party must be carefully prepared.
The empress liked the few sets of clothes that Shen Mingjiao designed for her before, so she also asked her for help this ti.
With the final touch down. Shen Mingjiao looked at it carefully again, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, she put down her pen, leaned against the back of the chair and stretched. Instruct Qiu Ju to send the drawings to the palace when they are dry.
At this ti, Eunuch Hua walked into the yard: "Princess, there is a Mr. Ye at the door asking to see him. He said he is the owner of Jinxiufang, and he ca here to pay his respects."
Shen Mingjiao straightened up: "Take to the flower hall in the front yard."
She went into the back room and changed into the clothes she had for guests, and then went to the front yard.
Shen Mingjiao stepped into the flower hall, the man sitting in the armchair hurriedly stood up, stepped forward to salute.
Shen Mingjiao waved her hand: "Boss Ye doesn't need to be too polite, just sit down!"
Ye Chen straightened up and sat down calmly.
Shen Mingjiao looked at the young man sitting at the bottom, and saw that he was sitting upright, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, with a fair and handso face, and a calm and gentle temperant. He doesn't look like a businessman, but rather a scholar.
She knew the other party's intentions, but she still asked straight to the point: "I don't know why Ye Dong's family ca to see this concubine?"
Ye Chen lowered his eyes and said, "Ye ca here this ti to apologize to the princess for what Chuntao, the shopkeeper of Jinxiufang on East Street, did."
He stood up: "Because the elders in the family were deceived by the villain for a while, Jinxiufang plagiarized the clothing style of the beautiful pavilion, and even made the princess be treated with contempt in Jinxiufang. Although there is a villain among them, it is also my Jinxiufang. The master did not control the people below, hereby Ye Mou expresses his deep apologies to the princess."
He waved his hand outward, and imdiately several followers ca forward with delicate gift boxes:
"This is Ye Mou's apology, please accept it with a smile."
After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and gave Shen Mingjiao a deep bow.
Seeing this, Shen Mingjiao had a good impression of this Boss Ye's family. He is considerate in handling things, neither humble nor overbearing in the face of the powerful.
If it was an ordinary person, in order to excuse, they might put all the responsibility on Chuntao, the culprit. But he didn't, but he could tell from the perspective of a bystander that he didn't restrain the people below him.
Aside from other factors, Ye Chen is indeed an excellent businessman.
Since the other party has given enough sincerity, there is no need for him to make things difficult:
"The Ye Dong family is being polite. Ye Dong's family manages so many properties, it is inevitable that there will be so negligence. Today, the Ye Dong family sincerely ca to apologize, so this concubine will take over this matter and not ntion it."
Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Earlier, he heard that Su Wangfei had a domineering personality and was extrely difficult to get along with. Now it seems that the rumors in the market are not true.
Having finished what should be said, Shen Mingjiao asked Eunuch Hua to see off the guests.
Waiting for the others to leave completely, she casually opened several wooden boxes brought by Ye Chen. They were all precious jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, Shen Mingjiao stared at these things, his expression fluctuating.
She walked out of the flower hall and told Tie Zhu: "Send soone to keep an eye on Ye Chen."
Tie Zhu didn't ask anything, and bowed to accept the order to retreat.
Haitang asked curiously: "Didn't the girl admire this Boss Ye's family just now?"
Shen Mingjiao walked back slowly: "It's two different things. I really appreciate him, but it doesn't affect my suspicion of him."
Haitang was puzzled: "Is there sothing wrong with this Boss Ye's family?"
Shen Mingjiao turned her head and asked her back: "Did you see those things he sent?"
Haitang nodded: "But apart from being more expensive, those things are quite popular with girls."
"That's right, it takes at least three days to travel from Jiangnan to the capital, and it has been exactly three days since Ye Chen got the news and left for the capital. That is to say, the first ti he ca to the capital, he ca to our Prince Su's mansion , and prepared gifts in advance!
According to the normal situation, Ye Chen should not be able to co here until the next day. After all, King Su's Mansion is regarded as a dignitary to him, and I have never had a good reputation outside.
For a cautious and considerate person like Ye Chen, why should you first inquire about my preferences carefully, and then understand what happened at that ti. Only when you are fully prepared will you co to the door.
Even if he was on the way, he asked soone to go back to Beijing to inquire about it in advance, but what about these gifts?
Although many people outside know that I like to visit all kinds of jewelry and ready-to-wear stores, except for you few, few people know my specific preferences. How did Ye Chen know that?
Through all these things, it can be explained that there are people around Ye Chen who know very well. "
And this person is probably Su Qing. As the saying goes, the person who knows you best is often the one who regards you as an old enemy. No need to think about it, Su Qing must have investigated her carefully, and presumably knew exactly what she liked to eat.
…
Ye Chen returned to his mansion in the capital, washed and changed his clothes, and ca to the backyard alone.
In a luxuriously decorated room, a woman wearing a veil sits in front of a vanity mirror. She looked at herself in the glazed mirror with gloomy eyes.
After a mont, she gently removed the veil. There was a scar the size of a copper coin on the woman's right cheek.
When the woman saw the scar, she clenched her teeth tightly, and her eyes showed hatred.
This woman is none other than Su Qing. She was lucky enough to be rescued by the man in black that day. But when he ran away, he was accidentally burnt to the cheek by the fire in the house. But here is no better than modern tis, burns cannot recover at all,
In other words, she, Su Qing, is disfigured!
At this ti, Ye Chen pushed the door and walked in.
Su Qing imdiately put away the hatred in her eyes, put on her veil again, stepped forward and smiled generously:
"Brother Ye is done?"
Ye Chen sat down familiarly, smiled and said: "Everything is going well, and the concubine has accepted all the presents. Thank you, Ah Qing, for helping think of a solution."
