Chapter 1579
"Who are you?"
Consort Jing's face was full of suspicion and incomprehension.
"After saying so much, you suddenly tell this palace that you are not a killer. Who are you, and what are your intentions? Prince Rui's mansion has nothing worth you thinking about."
"Niangniang is modest!" Chen Guanlou smiled with a look that was not quite a smile, staring at the other party's pretty face.
Consort Jing's heart suddenly realized, she reached out and touched her cheek, laughed at herself, "That's right. This palace served the late Emperor after all, has a bit of beauty, someone thinking about this palace's body, can also understand. This young master, are you also thinking about this palace's body?"
Talking about the body, talking about the joy between men and women, Consort Jing appeared exceptionally frank. Neither shy nor angry. Even if someone used this to humiliate her, I believe she could also do it calmly, resolving all attacks with a four-tael-pulling-a-thousand-jin technique.
"If I say I am thinking about it, what should Niangniang do?" Chen Guanlou had bad intentions, just wanting to test the other party's reaction. Of course, he wasn't that low, humiliating a widow with such means.
Moreover, the person in front of him was his client target. One of the people he wanted to protect.
He was just curious, wanting to see how much this woman could bear and how strong her inner core was.
Consort Jing didn't even frown, "Even if you are thinking about this palace, at least you should let this palace know your origin."
"Niangniang doesn't oppose, doesn't resist?"
Consort Jing raised her eyebrows and laughed, "Reasonably, this palace should oppose, and even more should resist. However, who let the young master look so handsome, why should this palace oppose."
Chen Guanlou:...
Fine!
He was teased by Consort Jing instead.
He nodded, "Niangniang truly has an eye. There are many women outside thinking about my skin, but Niangniang is one of the few frank people."
Consort Jing lowered her head and laughed, "I think I have already guessed who you are."
"Let's hear it."
"You are surnamed Chen, right? You are the Heavenly Prison Prison Warden Chen, did this palace guess right?"
"Niangniang is truly intelligent. How did you guess it." Chen Guanlou asked casually.
"Men are mostly narcissistic, but men like the young master who are so frank are very rare. I have heard of your rumors, combined with your handsome appearance, besides you, I can't think of a second person."
"Niangniang, with the origin of the Jiaofang Division, was able to take down the late Emperor in the first meeting, truly capable, admirable."
"Just admirable, not disdainful?" Consort Jing was very surprised, not daring to believe it.
She had already endured too much disdain, too much humiliation.
Occasionally encountering a sincere compliment, she was completely unaccustomed to it, always feeling it was very fake, very magical.
Could this be a new trick to deceive people.
"For capable people, regardless of gender, I admire them. Even if the means are not on the table, this itself is a kind of ability. Not every pretty girl has this ability, can protect herself while also fighting for power and profit, striving for the upper reaches. Women are always addicted to love, you are different, worthy of admiration."
Consort Jing suddenly took a deep breath, then exhaled big and big.
Like from the depths of the abyss, swimming up with all her strength, finally able to breathe freely, the feeling of being alive again.
Survival after a disaster!
The birth of a new life, like this spring, all things in heaven and earth are full of vitality. She also lived like a human being in this season.
She laughed out loud, laughing until tears came out. Like a happy little bird.
No!
She didn't want to be a little bird, she wanted to be a wild goose soaring in the blue sky, she wanted to be a top predator eagle!
She looked at Chen Guanlou with lingering eyes, "Pity! If only I could have met you earlier!"
She would definitely have gotten him regardless of her life! Giving birth to children for him!
"It's not too late now!" Chen Guanlou responded with a smile.
Consort Jing's calm heart suddenly beat very fast, it was too hot in the room, her cheeks were a bit hot.
"Are you just here to take a look?" She suppressed the panic in her heart and asked coldly.
"Yes, just passing by, coming in to take a look casually. Do you know, the late Emperor was very worried about your mother and son."
Ah?
Consort Jing had just immersed herself in the atmosphere of taking a look casually, and in a blink of an eye, she heard the other party mention the late Emperor. Why mention Emperor Jian Shi? What origin is there here?
Suddenly, she remembered, it seems that on the night the late Emperor passed away, this person was also in the palace.
"You, you saw the late Emperor before he died?"
"Niangniang is truly intelligent."
The brain turns really fast.
Consort Jing's face sank, at this moment exceptionally calm, all kinds of thoughts were gone.
"What did he say?"
"Niangniang must have already guessed, why ask again. In the future, if you encounter trouble that cannot be solved, you can come to find me."
Consort Jing took a deep breath, covering her heart, "He asked you to protect our mother and son, right?"
Chen Guanlou nodded in agreement.
Consort Jing suddenly laughed out loud, her expression like joy and sorrow, her eyes carrying three parts regret, three parts betrayal, two parts anger, and two parts gratitude.
She looked at Chen Guanlou, "Thank you! You have seen the situation of the mansion now, it's still passable."
"The Zongzheng Temple is making things difficult for you, giving old grain, do you need me to help you solve it?"
"How to solve it? Do you have connections in the Zongzheng Temple? Even if you have connections, don't move around, it will alarm the Emperor and lead to a bigger storm." Consort Jing advised him.
"You misunderstood, I have no connections in the Zongzheng Temple. Moldy old grain, people will get sick if they eat it, but it can be fed to livestock. I can introduce a buyer to you, exchanging old grain for last year's autumn grain."
This year's new grain hasn't come out yet, waiting until May or June, summer grain enters the warehouse. August or September, autumn grain enters the warehouse.
Now it's more than a month away from summer grain entering the warehouse.
"Thank you! You helped me a lot. Our brother and sister, living in the Jiaofang Division since childhood, actually don't know much about the outside world, and don't have many interpersonal relationships. With you helping to bridge the gap, it solved a big problem."
"Silver is not handy, I can also introduce a business to you. You don't need to manage it, you just need to spend money to buy shares. If it weren't for an acquaintance, you wouldn't have the chance to buy shares."
Talking about business, Consort Jing was obviously excited.
The dilapidated appearance of Prince Rui's mansion today, in the final analysis, is because there is no money.
The time she was doted on was too short, and the time she accompanied Emperor Jian Shi was too short. Even if she saved a little money, compared to the huge mansion, it was far from enough.
And, the child is so small. By the time the child grows up and can stand up, it will take at least seventeen or eighteen years.
The noble rice issued is old grain from two or three years ago, and it can be expected that the noble salary will definitely be owed.
The imperial court's business has always been dragging and dragging, and finally it is left unsettled.
She must find a way to open source and reduce expenditure.
She didn't dare to do business in the capital area rashly, fearing that it would hinder the Emperor's eyes, hinder Empress Sun's eyes, and hinder Consort Xiao's eyes. These people couldn't tolerate her.
I'm afraid that if the shop opens today, it will be smashed tomorrow. There isn't even a place to reason.
If someone leads, only buying shares and not participating in management, both income and safety are guaranteed. This is the most perfect solution.
Her heart was excited, enduring the unspeakable taste, and asked: "Can I ask what business it is?"
