Chapter 186 Chapter 186: The capital does not support idle people (please recommend votes and gifts)
The attendants went to passers-by to ask for Mr. Shushu's address. Most of them refused to tell them, but a few were willing and asked for another three taels of silver.

After giving away several thirty taels of silver, I also learned the addresses of several storytellers. As a result, when I searched them, I found that they were either casinos and brothels, or shops and slums. They were not the storytellers' addresses at all.

Since they couldn't find a storyteller to deal with, Prime Minister Qin was afraid that he would kill thirty of their followers.

So they asked passers-by to ask for the address of the storyteller. This time they were smarter and could give money, but they had to follow them to their destination and make sure the address was correct before giving money.

At first, the passers-by were reluctant. They only had three taels of silver. There was not much in the capital, but silver was the most important thing.

But when the silver rose to ten taels, a few passers-by became interested.

So the thirty followers found the addresses of several storytellers respectively, but the buildings were empty.

Not a hair was found.

When the passers-by who led the way saw that something was not going well, they immediately took their twelve taels of silver and ran away quickly before the followers could react.

Because passers-by were afraid that the attendants could not find the storyteller and would regret not giving them the money.

Then they would be taken advantage of.

Reputation gone? Didn't you get any money?

That is impossible.

The capital does not support idle people.

Seeing that the one hundred taels of silver were gone and that the storyteller hadn't caught a single one, the thirty attendants were dumbfounded.

They walked to the gathering place in despair and fear, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

After thinking about it for half an hour, they decided to continue pretending to look for the storyteller, but they couldn't believe that they couldn't find one.

They waited until it was almost dark before returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion. They couldn't go back now anyway, lest Prime Minister Qin think they were lazy and deliberately couldn't find a storyteller.

As a result, several groups of men wearing the clothes of the Prime Minister's servants appeared in the streets and alleys. They kept running, asking people, and looking for people.

This matter was criticized and discussed by the common people.

The thirty followers don't care, as long as they don't get beaten when they go back.

Prime Minister's Mansion

Prime Minister Qin learned that the thirty followers he sent out early in the morning had not found a storyteller yet, and they were still running around on the streets, affecting people's business.

Not only were they criticized, but the Prime Minister's Office was also scolded thousands of times by the common people.

Is this still available?

Prime Minister Qin immediately sent the housekeeper to call back the thirty boys, but he did not dare to punish them. He only cursed a few words and kicked the entourage a few times before letting them go.

If punishing the attendant makes the matter bigger, I'm afraid there will be no place for his old face.

In the morning court tomorrow, he will also be impeached by the civil officials and will be punished.

It's just that he couldn't swallow this bad breath. Prime Minister Qin was angry all night. He was late for the morning and early morning appointments and was scolded by the emperor.

Then several civil servants took turns to impeach Miss Qin and Shen Shaosheng the day before yesterday, and he sent people to arrest Mr. Storyteller yesterday.

This made Emperor Long Yan displeased, and he scolded Prime Minister Qin for a quarter of an hour before his anger subsided. Finally, he granted marriage to Shen Shaosheng and Qin Manting.

The wedding was only half a month away, and it happened to be the day before the Prime Minister's Mansion ransacked his house.

Arrangement, perfect.

Upon hearing the decree of marriage, Prime Minister Qin was so angry that he fainted.

But several civil servants rushed out to support him in time, preventing him from falling to the ground and losing face.

"Huh? Did the old prime minister faint because he was too happy? Or... he was not satisfied with my will?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and slammed the folding book on the table.

He is still very angry now, because a few months ago, Prime Minister Qin had been trying to give Miss Qin to the Crown Prince as his concubine.

He had investigated Qin Manting, a person who tortured and killed small animals since she was a child, and even killed her servants at will when she grew up.

How can such a person be a princess?
Be the future mother of a nation?
Don't torture the maids and eunuchs in the palace after death when they are unhappy, and torture countless ordinary people to death when they go out to play in the palace.

The country built by his ancestors cannot be destroyed by a witch who has brought disaster to the country. "..." Prime Minister Qin was so angry that a mouthful of blood surged into his throat, but he did not dare to spit it out.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qin is so happy. He has always loved Miss Qin the most. Nothing can compare with Miss Qin's lifelong happiness."

"Yes, it is a beautiful thing when lovers finally get married. Prime Minister Qin was so excited that he fainted."

"Prime Minister Qin, thank you quickly! Your Majesty is so kind to you. He directly decrees a marriage. I can't ask for such a thing."

……

"!!!" Prime Minister Qin was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood. He fainted without saying "Thank you Lord for your kindness".

Fortunately, he was supported by several civil servants.

When Shen Hong saw this scene, he couldn't stop laughing.

The emperor glared at him to signal him not to be too arrogant.

But the emperor himself was also very happy. His shoulders were shaking, he was stroking his beard to hide his smile, and he didn't make a sound.

Shen Hong had done him a favor by settling Miss Qin's marriage.

Otherwise, Prime Minister Qin had been forcing him to marry Qin Manting as the Crown Princess for the past six months. He almost wanted to have the Prime Minister's house confiscated and beheaded.

If he hadn't wanted to expose the person behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, he wouldn't have allowed Prime Minister Qin to be arrogant and domineering for so long.

……

The news of the marriage had reached the Prime Minister's Mansion in less than half an hour.

Qin Manting dragged her weak body and red and swollen eyes to kneel on the ground to thank her.

She cried with tears all over her face, hating God for being unfair to her.

It is obvious that she wants to marry His Highness the Crown Prince, become the Crown Princess, the future Queen, and the Queen Mother.

result……

There is nothing now.

As soon as the father-in-law who delivered the decree left the Prime Minister's Mansion, she cried so hard that she started cursing people like crazy, starting from Shen Shaosheng to Shen Zhiyuan.

She also scolded Shen Hong and the emperor. Her parents quickly covered her mouth and asked the servants to escort her into the boudoir and not allow her to leave.

Restricted for half a month until the wedding day.

……

The Duke who delivered the edict then arrived at the Duke Protector's Mansion and heard that the edict was written by the Emperor himself. Both Shen Zhongsheng and Lao Yang thought that the Emperor had discovered the excellence of their grandson and was going to confer an official title on him.

Shen Shaosheng's right eyelid kept twitching until he heard the imperial edict, and he jumped from the bed and fell to the ground.

"Imperial decree? What do you mean? It can't be to give me a promotion or title!" He shook his head.

He knew his abilities and details so well that he didn't even believe it, let alone the emperor.

There is not much in the capital, but there are so many talented people, and they are as endless as the waves.

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the new people in the world drive out the old ones.

Shen Shaosheng quickly put on his outer robe, tied up his hair casually, and hurried to the lobby.

At this time, Shen Zhongsheng and others were already kneeling in front of the edict-bearing father-in-law and had begun to read out the edict.

Shen Shaosheng knelt at the back, listening to the content of the imperial edict.

Marriage?

Him and Qin Manting?
How could this be?
Aren’t things settled?
When Shen Zhongsheng heard that the imperial edict was to marry Shen Shaosheng and Qin Manting, he jumped up excitedly.

"Hahaha... I knew my grandson was great. This is a marriage granted by the emperor. Even the emperor approved of their marriage."

"Grandpa, kneel down quickly and thank me." Shen Qingqing pulled the hem of Shen Zhongsheng's clothes and whispered to him.

"Yes, yes, thank you Lord for your grace."
